WHEN we read earnest articles in
the interests of cheap transportation,
and hear it enunciated as one of the
leading objects of the oranges, we wond
er how people can be SO inconsistent
as to advocate one thing and practice
quite another. Take this tobacco dis
trict, for instance, and we find thousands
of hogsheads of tobacco shipped to
New York, all the way by rail, at a
heavy rate for freight, when the natu-
raj channels of commerce the Cumber-
land and Ohio rivers are open to the
natural outlet. for grain and tobacco,
New Orleans and the mouth of the
Mississippi. Whilst the cost of trans
portation to New York is two or three
times as great as it need be to New Or
leans, yet the advantages of the latter
are ignored by producers, on the banks
of these rivers, and the costlier route
is patronized that New Y ork may prof.
it by trade that may be made so ben
efcial to what should be the CONNER
cial capita. Of the South. One pre-
text to cover this inconsistency, is a
quicker transit to the seaboard and a
shorter trip to Europe. But day or
two, more or less, in the arrival of
hid of tobacco at its point of desti-
nation, is not of vital importance to
buyer or seller. Another is, that the
buyers prefer New York to New Or
leans, but this is mere subterfuge.
Wherever the tobacco goes, there the
buyers will congregate.

EDITORS CHRoNIcLE:-I am sorry
to see in your paper an article signed
with q fictitious name, which is per.
sonal attack upon me. 1t seems to me
that it is hard cause which is forced
to contend for itself by STOPPING to
personal abuse, and by hiding unde,
an assumed name.
The article which seems to have
grieved your correspondent was plain
statement of some facts (Which have
never been questioned by any one, land
plain piece of advice to some Of the
Patrons OF Husbandry which we
thought would be to their honor and
credit to consider. There was no at
tack made or fault found with any one,
and our real names were honestly
given. This correspondent (who with
holds his name) says that some one
(also not named, } says that | suggest
ed the propriety of the buyers form
ing ring to buy loose tobacco. He
says l hauled" some one mot named)
lover the Goals because he bid Fl 90
over my price. No one as far as /
have heard has bid 81 90 more than l
have for tobacco this season. All
your correspondents statements are
without foundation, so far as / am con-
cerned. H
Please tell this man that if he knops
anything about me, and wishes to have
it published, to come out like a man,
say it and own it.
1 am not the champion of any ware
house, but hope to be always strong
advocate Of all persons, Patrons or
not, standing square up to their engage
ments.
[ would suggest to the CHRONICLE
that the next time man wants to abuse
me through its columns to make him
give his name and to state only what
he knows himself, and not what he can
pick up. Very respectfully, la
W. H. CROUCH.

TO PLANTERS.
A Matter OF Importance.

You will confer a favor by adding
to your printed report of sales, fol-
some months to come, suggestion to
your planters to prize their Tugs lightly
there is disposition to prize them
hard so as to hide the worm damage,
which efforts are futile as foreign as
well as domestic buyers know how
badly. the crop is worm eaten, and
crushing the Tugs renders them unfit
for anything but snuff, which is the
lowest price demand we have for
grades. IF they are priced free, they
are useful for filters, reggie thirds, cigar
binders and other purposes in view Of
the large heavy Juggling crop before US,
the large crop in Virginia, the surplus
of low priced seed-leaf Tugs and the
large common crop in Germany, low
grades must sell very low this season,
and we should try by careful prepara-
ton to aid the demand for them so as
to make them bring as much money
into the country as possible. We have
large orders for free Tugs, and none for
cakey. matted Tugs. ,5..s
We are yours truly,
M. III. CLARK & Bro.

REV. WIN. E. MUNSEY, d. D.

This gifted orator will lecture in our
city on the 10th of March. We are
glad to be able to promise this literary
treat to our citizens. Few ages have
been blessed with great orators. Poets
have adorned almost every age, but
.eratory lisa rarer, higher gift than
poesy A benefcent Providence
creates great men to accomplish certain
work. 1t is singular fact in the
history of the world that the greatest
Orator that ever lived should confront
the greatest captain. Denosthenes
and Alexander present the most re-
markable contest the world ever wit
messed. The oratory of Demosthenes,
blazing with patriotic hate against his
eountry's oppressor, was sublime. In
the peaceful walks of literature ora
toryis beautiful, but in unfolding the
grand principles of Christianity it is
powerful. Dr. Munsey, as Christian
orator, has the loftiest theme that ever
engaged the mind of man. His sue
cess is attested by all. He is univer-
sal favorite. 1t is beyond your power
to resist the charm of his eloquence !;
ere you are aware you are swept away
on the bosom of its foaming current.
One man said, Il am sorry / heard
him-I will hear other men with less
forbearance. The grandeur of his
imagery, the beauty of his language,
the depth of his pathos, the earnest
ness of his devotion, and the grand
sweep of his thought all combine to
render him one of the most remark
able men of his day. If you do not
hear DIR. Munsey, you will miss hearing
one of the few orators Of the present
age. --

East Tennessee Wheat Crop.

We learn from one of our citizens
who has just returned from visit in
Sequatchee Valley, that the wheat crop
is promising. The farmers of that rich
valley have driven out more stock this
year than usual, and corn is now sell
ing for fifty cents per bushel.
We also learn from one who has re-
Gently made tour through James and
Meigs counties, that the wheat crop
there is more promising than usual.
The farmers all appear to wear cheer
full countenance and express hope Of
brighter days to the tillers of the soil
This bright anticipation is probably
caused by the organization of the
Changers, who appear to have inspired
a new zeal and renewed energy il ag-
riculture, among those who desire to
improve and dignity their noble pur-
suit by means of intercourse with each
other, and carefully preventing the
introduction of politics into their pro-
ceedings.-Ch Chattanooga Commercial.
