wretched death in st. Albans on We'd

street, and from strong feelings of pride
he shielded his circumstances from out
side view. He was taken sick a few
days since of lung fever, and lay upon
a dirty straw mattress in his lonely
room for several days without any care
or attention. He was finally discovered
by neighbor, when medical and Other
assistance were summoned, but he was
then too far gone to be saved. He was

Gil of State iu which he granted the MEM
bers of the Holstein Ministry the dismissal
they had requested, and nominated the new

agrees with what we gave on that subject
in a late number of the Avis, according to
"Dagbladet." The new ministry is con-

their i'land, even for a higher pay. What
improved cultivation signifes-and that OF
Barbados can not even by any means boast
OF great superiority-is seen from the fact,
that whilst st. Croix has maximum production
of 1870 lbs. sugar, and an average Of, only
$50 lbs. per acre, Barbados had in 1852 1.-THE
only year for. which l have been able to find
any statement of the area ii cultivation) about
1920 lbs. per acre.
The state of things in Barbados appears,
therefore, SO far from serving as an excuse
for st. Croix, on the contrary to prove, that
1t is nothing but negligence and want OF
energy that has brought about the present
deplorable state Of things in the Danish island,
and all other causes advanced. fall to the
ground, and are reduced to nothing, on closer
examination. II the idea is to improve ths
relations, it is of no use, with the hands In
the pocket, to be staring toward heaven for
rain, and believe that all is done when q Cen,
trail Factory is obtained, but people must
exert themselves, they must stretch every
nerve, to make up for lost time, and when that
is done, st. Croix may yet have as fair a future
as the past has been. In a subsequent article
an attempt will be made to show the road to
be followed to reach this goal.

""") In this connection it may be mo-
ticed, that the old belief that forests
.attract rain may find its explanation in the eff
feet of the tall t~ree-tops being the same as that
of greater elevation, so that the planting of trees
besides a direct, protective influence, also exer-
cises an indirect influence in attracting the rain.
In SO far it may be said that in several place.
in St. Croix people have. by needless telling Of
trees, been the cause of a somewhss decreased
rainfall,

THE WING AND TRIBUNE

Has positive convictions, and will
fcarlessly announce them. 1t holds
that parties are necessary to the
well being of the Republic, and
that it is the duty of every good
citizen 10 first ascertain what party
comes the nearest to his own views
of what is true and just, and then TO
go INTO it and act withit. The ever
watchful eyes Of an opposition par
ty are necessary to restrain the par
~ that happens to be iii power, and
without such restraint at ali times,
our liberties would be destroyed.
Unlike those guerillas of the
press who by hate arc prevented
from acting with the Democrats,
and who by fear are prevented
from acting with the Republicans,
the WING & TRIBUNE does not pro-
pose to live by plumber picked up
on the outskirts of the two great
parties of the time. Seeing that the
mighty enginery of the government
has been for the last nine years used
almost exclusively in the interest of
the few, as opposed to the interests
of the many, and for the purpose of
subordinating all kinds of human
labor to the oppression of capital,
this paper is in full accord with all
honest bread winners, no matter
whetehr they toll in the field or at
the forge, in crowded cities, or in
the sOlitudeS of the South and OF
the West.

THE WING AND TRIBUNE

Will be especially devoted to the
educational, moral, social, industri-
al and political interests of Jackson,
of Madison county and of West
Tennessee. Although the policy of
the party in power has brought pri-
walton in greater or less degree 10
every hut and hall in the land, we
have been enabled to pass through
the trial without any whisper of
riot or disturbance, or any of the
fierce demands for bread or blood
that have been heard in the streets
of the cities OF the North. During
the last few years Jackson has inn
proved wonderfully, and has fur
nished employment to hundreds of
mechanics at remunerative wages,
while the cities and towns of the
! AfricaniZcd states south of us were
falling into decay. We have seen the
entire State of Tennessee, and es-
pecially that portion of it (West
I Tcnuessec) which was most
thoroughly Democratic, increase in
population as it never did before
Is our State to 20 on prospecting and
to prosper, or is it to be sunk again
into the slough of Radical misrulc'?
The WIG * TRIBUNE will do its
/ uttermOst in the coming canvass to
avert the latter result, and we call
upon all those who agree with Us in
sentiment to aid us in the diffusion
! of the principles that we hold. The
crucial, historic hour i'm the history
| of Tennessee awaits us during the
/ present year, and we must he ready
| to meet it.
AS a medium of news the WIG
! n TRIBUNE will be one of the best
in the State. With our 10 column
paper printed on clean new type,
on good paper, by a steam press that
works with the precision of watch,
we can present our readers with a
/ paper of which they may feel justly
| proud. 1t will contain all the latest
news, and particular attention will
| be given to the markets, to agriCul-
tural news, to our miscellany and
to all the industries of our portion
of the country. With pains-taking
{ care the news and Geographic sum-
| maries OF the paper will be prepared,
| and these will be rewritten entire.
Thus, every week, the reader viii
be enabled to obtain 4 correct idea
| OF all really worth knowing that has
transpired at home or abroad. In
our attention to trade, politics and
to local and general Rews-gatheriu@,
however, we will not forget TO give
a largo amount of literary and fami-
! ly reading. Our market reports
will be carefully edited, and every
| week the paper will contain valua-
BILE correspondence from the neigh
boring towns with which our bust
ness relations are most intimate.
