THORN HILL,

Wheat crops seldom, if ever, at
this season looked more promising
than now. There are vastly more
acres in wheat than usual on this
side of Clinch. Hence, the wheat
dealers of Morristown may prepare
to buy more largely than usual this
year. Though they need not ex-
pect to get wheat, or anything else,
produced north of CIincll,'' save
through that enterprising and wide
awake merchant, g. F. Davis, of our
CT, no, village.
The farmers in this section are
blowing Justify, wind and weather
permitting" The rains are little
too heavy to run plows and not
quite heavy enough to run flat-boats.
There are DOW several boat loads
of grain on the river, near this place,
but Notwithstanding the energy of
Messrs. Hayes. Hodges. Monroe
and others in getting ready, still the
tide won't come. However they, as
others, act on the principle, nil
desperandum."
We have a tide over here, too, in
the way of greenbacks, but I'M
fortunately it's an ebb.
am glad to see that some, at
least, of our farmers are turning
there attention to the improvement
of stock. Jno. Easley has Berk-
shire hogs of the NEST improved
kind, and has 'em to sell.
G. w. Lathim, Esq, has a more
than ordinarily fine, two year old, of
the male persuasion, and he says,
of the mich stock variety. This
augnrs well for his neighbors.
More houses and inhabitants are
all that Thorn Hill lacks of being
a city. Within its spacious limits,
it has the minister, merchant, hotel
keeper, physician and blacksmith,
and q shoemaker just around the
cliff. While the indomitable Hip
sher keeps a mill just down the
creek. All big towns are incorpo-
rated certainly Thorn Hill ought
to be,

FROM GREREEyILLE.-The latest
news from Greeneville represents
Mrs. Ward as having renewed her
license to sell liquor, and still def
antly holding out against the pray
ers of the beseigers, though they had
received heavy reinforcements from
the country. The prospect just now
is that she will come out conqueror
in the contest for who can longest
face the situation. AT any rate she
runs the best advertised grocery in
the United States. and if there is any
truth in the efficacy of printers ink
she owes a big debt of gratitude to
the Knoxville papers and their re-
porters. But she may claim, and
very justly, set off in furnishing
them readers, when nothing else
would. In this connection, and IL
Illustrating the idyOsincrasy of learn
ed men, we may mention that Judge
Stafford, of Hillsboro, Ohio, in his
decision granting an injunction re-
straining certain of the whisky raid
ers, ETC., says that "when such wor-
ship is made a pretext of breaking
up a mans lawful trade of interfer-
ing with the quiet and peaceable en-
joyment of his own property; of
bringing him into public ridicule and
disgrace; of defaming his calling
and character, and this without in
PERMISSION for six consecutive weeks,

bors, defamation of private charac-
ter, and unsettled state of society

CAUGHT.-Some weeks ago, a man
by the name of Stephen Woody took
a forged order on Mr.. Susong to the
store of Messrs. Jones, Bro. & Co.,
at Clifton, and received goods to the
amount Of 81. He there passed for
William Capps. He came down the
railroad to Sulphur Springs, in this
county, with a woman purporting to
be his wife. Last Saturday Woody
was in town for medicine for his wo-
man, and started out of town a few
minutes before the Buncombe train.
Mr.. John Jones came from the East
on the morning train. and about the
time the train started he learned that
Woody had just gone. He spoke to
Capt. Taylor and had the train stop
ped when he VAS overtaken two
miles from town. Woody jumped
into the passenger car to learn why
the train had stopped, and to his sur
prise and dismay was confronted by
DIR. Jones, who took charge of him
and conducted HIM to Clifton. We
learn there are several indictments
for various misdemeanors standing
against him. The trick to catch him
without trouble was worthy Vidocq.

These suits were brought for $685.
600 each-the largest railroad acct
dent suits ever instituted in East
Tennessee. The high respectability
Of the plaintiffs and the seriousness
| of the injuries they sustained had
rendered the final result of the suit
an object of more than usual inter
est to hundreds Of persons. AS an
item of local news it was of more
general interest to the East Tennes-
see reader than anything that has
ever transpired of its kind. It
attracted the attention of Lynchburg,
Petersburg. Norfolk. Richmond, Bal
timOre, Atlanta, Louisville, and Col
umbia papers, that we lave seen, and
no telling how many hundreds of
others that do not reach this Office.
Yet strange to say this important
news item has appeared in bat one
oast Of tie fourteen papers Of East
Tennessee schOSe editors accept the
COURTESY Of railroad free passes =!
Is there an intelligent man or wo-
man charitable enough to believe it
only an accidental omission? The
question is, why was the neecS sup
pressed? Why was it that the local
newspapers circulating where the
wounded and damaged plaintiffs and
their friends live, papers supported
by patronage from them, have failed
to mention the important result?
D red they not say a word about it
for fear it might spread a precedent
to some one else who may hereafter
receive similar injuries to person, or
lock? The fact that the suppress
5ors of this important item are all
oanoplied with the impenetrable
shield Of dead head railroad pass,
relieves them of no dereliction of
duty to their readers. We are not
much surprised, however, at it's gen
eral suppression by the East Tennes-
see press. They have no tooth for
food unpalatable to the railroad mag
net; and more especially is the head
offender excusable on the plea of
more valuable news. The Press and
Herald seems to think it can better
please the tastes of its readers by
