Can it be that party politics has
found way into the temple of Justice Z
These questions, in suppressed
tones, could be heard on the streets,
in the stores, in the shops, indeed
everywhere. Three well-known
names were to be kept back. All
of them had been officers in the gen.
eral and in the State governmet,
placed there by the party. and the
party must not be further stigma
tized.
Two of the three had been reve-
nue. officers for stBnele Sam and
were well acquainted with his notes
of hand. One of the three had been
connected with the court itself in
administering the laws of the land.
Another had been in high legal po-
sition if I am rightly informed. and
all Of them intelligent men, acquaint-
ed and familiar with the laws of the
land. and could not plead ignorance
as an excuse for crime, as you and
], and many of your readers could
well do, but would do to no purpose
if arraigned and charged as they
were. Against one OF these three,
the cases were all dismissed, while
the other two were continued by the
prosecutor and as report says with
out affidavit. One of them helped
the United States to convict one of
his comrades in crime by testifying
against him. The other was so sure
of his arrangement to pass his case,
that his witnesses were discharged
long before the morning Chronicle in
its court report, announced the con-
tinuance. Is it any wonder people
ask, ''what is the matter? p Does
the law punish one citizen for crime
and set free another? Is one man
to be tried, condemned and punish
ed while another equally guilty, in
law, and more deeply so in morals,
is screened, shuffled to the bottom,
and protected by the officers of the
law? Has the courts and the offi-
GERS of the law their favorites and
pets? Has partiality been engraft-
ed on the criminal practice in the
courts?
People do not consider themselves
impertinent in propounding these
interrogatories to each other and to
the public.
They ask further if these contin-
uances are playing in the Federal
Court the game played by 'cld
Nick in the State courts. Are
young ''nicks" to oe permitted to do
in the big court, what cold Nick
was not permitted to do? What is
the difference between 'sold Nick, -
and 'young nick in the same court,
on the same charge with the same
proof to sustain the charge?
We pause in vain for reply.
The Chronicle of Sunday morning,
''goes for' the court. on this same
subject, in a style that does credit
to its candor and love Of justice.
Send my paper to as
will be there during the summer.

LETTER FROM THOS. BASCUM

AN APPEAL FOR INFORMATIoN-THE
LUNATIC ASYLUM A MATTER OF
EARNEST INQUIRY FROM A CON.
PETENT OFFICE SEEKER.
MARYvILLE, March 81, 1874.
To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
A short time since, noticed in
the Press and Herald, of Knoxville,
an article, stating that there were to
be two lunatic asylums in East Ten
nessee. One to be located at a
point to be yet designated. for those
who were lunatics in fact, and one
to be located at Morristown, for
those who never had any sense. I
am uneasy, and want some informa-
ton at once. Is the above state
ment true? If so, what will be the
dimensions of the building or build
ings, as the case may be? How
and by what means supported?
/ want information. Have been
uneasy ever since 1 heard of the
thing. Do you suppose it will be
left optionary with those entitled to
a seat in that mansion, whether or
not they will go there? or will the
managers of the concern, send out
into the highways and hedges and
COMPEL them to come. If the lat
ter is to be the programme, nay word
for it, a bloody war will be the re-
suit. / am perfectly satisfied the
people Of Maryville will Reyer sub
NIT to it.
If the people. but more especially
the men, could be persuaded that
going to that institution was going
to the Legislature or Congress, all
would willingly go. And if the
women can be convinced that all
manner of late fashions are to be
learned in this institution, there will
be no difficulty in getting them
there. But, tell them it is lunatic
asylum, and all the Taylor artillery,
and Peace and Williams Repeating
Rifles in America can never force
them there.
/ tell you, Mr.. Editor. if such a
thing is to be, it Will depopulate
this whole country. 1 would not
give five dollars for Knoxville and
all its remaining inhabitants, and
Maryville will be left a bowling
wilderness.
My opinion is, that Morristown
is not the place for such an institu-
tion. 1t would suit much better to
have it at Knoxville. from the fact
that so few Of the inhabitants would
have to move out.
1t is true, about the same number
of buildings would have to be done,
(for scarcely any of the dwellings
now occupied would be vacated. but
laborers are more plentiful at Knox.
vile than most places
Mr.. Editor. if this kind of institu.
tion Is to be started. I wish to pro.
cure your influence, in my behalf
want the position of Ring Master
in the shebang. Money is no OBJ
ject with me. if I can only get Office.
I would advise all those who have
a desire to see the workings of Con
gress. but have not the opportunity
of doing so, to visit this institution
a. soon after it is organized as pos
sible, for / have no doubt the scenes
would be much the same.
Please to not forget me, for If
see no chance for an Office / viii
leave the State.

RuRAL FELICITY, rE,,s,, March 2sth, 1874.
To the Editor Of the Morrstown Gazette
1 see in the last number of the
Gazette, 8 call on Hon. d. w. C.
Senter, to run for Congress in this
Qs9 Congressional district. l think
it good call. He is the only man
(that could be induced to make the
race) that can beat Butler, 9Th can),
and he would have to run as an in
independent candidate, The Con
servatives will certainly not repeat
the folly of making nomination
as it would evidently secure the uni
fication of the Radical party. on
Butler, and secure the defeat of
their nominee. Governor Senter
has claims on the Conservatives that
no man has; and, besides, he has
the prestige Of success. I want some
of our ablest and best to. receive the
mantle (when it falls), Of that Chris
tjan Statesman, the Sdinted PwSoia
Brown.ow for he is mortal, and will
soon have to be. gathered to his
Fathers, and why not Judge Butler?
Let us make no nomination. and let
Governor Senter, if he will run,
choose his time to. and declare him
self, and then let epe''y man be at his
post Yours, respectfully, .

A Cooperative SToRE.-An illustra-

February 1867, few working men in Fall

ital OF s., l2i. They rented small store

capital to $500. In the spring of 1868 a
large store was bought for 1000, and at the
end Of the second year the membership
hau increased to 100 and the capital to 81
600. The shares are $40 each, with an adj
mission fee ofsl. Last year the store was
sold for $4,000 and the association built a
block 7Ox4O feet, containing three stores
and tenements. 1t runs" a grocery. a
