The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1874-05-20

The GAZETTE has been, for seven years, the
most regularly issued county newspaper published
in East Tennessee-having never missed regular
issue since its establishment-and it's columns each
week, have contained LARGE AMOUNT of County,
State and General News interest to every citizen
of Hamben, Hawkins, Granger, Cooke and Jeffer-
son Counties, PARTICULARLY and we now appeal
to them to come forward and give the GAZETTE a
more liberal support-give it patronage comnen-
surate with ITS MERITS. Aside from the value of
the paper as a NEWS DISSEMINATION, its labors have
been devoted to the interest and Advancement of
enterprise that had for its object the building
up Of the material prosperity of this immediate
ton. The Farmer and the Mechanic have ever
had, in the GAZETTE, a fast friend and a stanch
advocate. The Merchant and those engaged in
Commercial pursuits have not been neglected, and
their interests have been carefully watched and mp
held in its columns.
Referring to its the past as the best in
dex Of the spirit which will control its future man
agement, the GAZETTE is encouraged to promise its
readers marked advancement, in every particular
that constitutes live newspaper, for the year to
come. With such sigral evidences of vigor and en-
terprise as may be found in the pages of its files,
perfect confidence is assured that no energy will be
relaxed to add to the numerous features which
nave ALREADY made IL prominent among the country
papers of the State. AS stated in his salutatory
upon taking charge Of the paper, the GAZETTE viii
be devoted to the nterets of the people of its
ton and in politics it viii be neutral but at proper
times will discuss State and National affairs with
out prejudice, and with desire to tell the truth,
"the whole truth and noting but the truth" The
paper, so far as ability and experience warrants
win be live newspaper, and is not for sale to any
" ring in Church or State, but win keep its
columns open 60 the people for the discussion of
matters Of general interest provided the articles are
sensibly written and free from abuse"
We intend to improve the GAZETTE We intend

Some very important artillery ex.
perfments have been made lately on
Nut Island, Boston harbor, which de-
monstrate that We are ahead of the
world in heavy ordnance. Two guns
one smooth and one rifled, but alike
In other respects, being of I5-inch
caliher, and weighing As, 700 ibs, each,
were mounted side by side 100 feet
from targets of rolled iron Is inches in
thickness and backed by banks of fro
zen gravel. Each gun was then load
edwith 40 pounds Os powder, aud a
160 pound shot. When discharged
the smooth bore shot penetrated the
target about two-thirds of its thick
ness. The rifle shot, however, per-
formed wonders, by passing clear
through the target, and considerable
distance into the frozen gravel bank.
The greatest performance of this kind
previous to this was by gun in En-
gland weighing s., 200 pounds, which
took 100 pounds of powder, sent g
projeetile through 3 Il inch iron tar
get. This remarkable result has been
obtained through an Improvement OF
Norman WARDS in ri1ling smooth
bore guns, and the Naval officers are
so well satisfied with the performance
that it is proposed to change immedi-
ately some coo guns according to Mr..
Wards plan.

How 10 Obtain the Strength and
Aroma from Coffee.

Take Of coffee what may Le desira-
be for a drawing, place the same in
the usual vessel for steamlng it, after
which pour scalding hot water and
then close up the coffee pot as tight
as possible. so that, if possible no
steam shall escape from the vessel
containing the coffee with the hot
water, and then set the pot aside al
lowing the same to soak for ten or
twelve hours, after which place the
vessel or pot upon q hot stove, and al
low the same to remain there until
thoroughly hot, but not long enough
TO boil or steam the aroma from the
eoffee-pot. By this process of max
ing coffee the whole strength is OBJ
tanned from Il, and no part of the
aroma is lost by steamiBg off from the
coffee-pOt. this most desirable sub
stance of the eoffse,ss il is this which,
it is considered, gives its value TO the
coffee, and on the account OF which
the coffee is drank for the grstifica-
tion Of the palate.
COFFEE may be prepared in the same
manner from the kernel when il is
Drowned, but it will require double
the time for soaking to extract all the
strength there may be in the coffee.
It is thought that by the various
modes existing by which the strength
of the coffee is secured, that nearly, II
not quite half of the aroma of the cof-
fee is lost by the defective manner i'm
which the coffee is made 10 secure
this most valuable aud desirable sub
stance Of the coffee.
