Luther Brown, son of Rev. John B.,

He has been afflicted with sore eyes tor
some time past, and on the day of the
accident was lying on pallet under
the shade OF peach tree in the yard,
when the snake bit him on the ankle.

and after he returned, IL bit him. He

The wheat crop is not panning out
according To expectations. James Ell
kins threshed yesterday. He made
ninety four bushels from field which
two years ago made one hundred and
forty. Maxwell Collier made two
hundred bushels, and his crop this
year turned out less than one hundred.
Alex. Brown expected one hundred,
and made in the neigh borhood of fifty.
The evidence is overwhelming now
that we have all been deceived by the
tiattering prospects we had in the early
spring. and the yield will fall off a
great deal from first guesses. Thresh-
ing is going onrapidly, and all the tale

How a "Hoss Doctor Got - seat.


Burleish, the New York correspond
ent of the Boston Journal, writes as
follows: An amusing incident occur
red the other day on one OF the trains
from Boston to this city. The cars
were crowded. An elegantly dressed
woman occupied an entire seat. Her
bundles, band box, aud bag were piled
artistically. she was oblivious to the
fact that passengers were rushing back
and fourth to obtain sittings More
than one gentleman drew himself up
in front of the imperious dame, and
silently pleaded for the vacant spot
She famed herself leisurely, lolled In
the seat, and evidently thought that
things were very comfortable AS they
were "Is that seat occupied

seat on which our lady was sitting.
He made for it. With great delibera-
ton he seized bundle, bandbox, and
bag, put them plump into the lap of
the lady, and sat down in the vacant
spot like one who intended to stay, If
looks would have annihilated a man
there would have been "a corpse in that
car about that time. The man seemed
very much at home. He whistled, he
spit, he stroked his beard, he threw
around his hugh arms, and thuckie
inwardly at the evident rage of the
woman. She left the cars at New
Haven, and had hardly gone before
the gentleman who was refused the
seat re-appeared. TO some gentlemen
who seemed to take great interest in
the proc edngs, he said: Did you

Knoxville, Tenn, July q, 1874
The wheat market continues unsettled.
We learn of the sale of the crop grown
upon the Agricultural College Farm, about
800 bushels, at S1.1O, to Messrs. John p.
Beach s. Co., of the City Mills. Another
crop of 500 bushels to Williams, thinner
man 81 Wilson, at Careyville, at ST 90.
Hugh Campbell, Esq, sold his crop Of
about 800 bushels to Ross & Parker, of the
Trio Mills, at S12O. These are all the
transactions that have come to our knowl-
edge, and only serve to show that there is
very little demand. and that prices are ir-
regular and low. We have reliable infor-
nation that wheat has been and is now
being shipped from st. Louis to Richmon
and Petersburg, Va, via Knoxville, at
cents per bushel less than it shipped from
Knoxville to those points-not half the

High life Abroad.
From the Glasgow News

IRON the glasgow News
In our impression of yesterday we
chronicled a rumor TO the effect that a
certain tiried lady has lost 100000 at
ecorte, and That this will necessitate
the sale of large portion of her hus-
bands land, and the retirement of both
from this country for few years.
Apart altogether from the moral re-
Elections which naturally suggest
themselves on the evils of gambling,
such glaring case as this leads one TO
speculate why the law should make
the property of a woman inviolate
from her husband while man is le-
gally and IN honor bound to pay such
heavy stake for the disastrous frivol-
ity OF his wife. This solitary instance
reveals sad state of affairs, and it is
painful to think ofthe domestic misery
beyond the mere loss, which it entails
Men Of honor would hardly, under the
circumstances, demand or accept the
payment of the debt incurred. On the
other hand, neither could IA man OF
honor shrink from meeting such q
claim.

Secretary of IN. Treasury

After full consideration of the ques
ton who should be appointed Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Bri tow,
who has brought more practical ideas
to the administration of his Office tnan
any Secretary who has preceded him
for years, came to the conclusion that
the public interest would be best sub.
served by promoting some efficient
officer of the department, who was
familiar with its details. His choice
fell upon Mr.. Charles f. Conant, who
has been in the department since 1865
and who since 1870 has very acceptably
filled the position OF chief of the war
rant division. The appointment is one
that was made entirely upon merit.
There is no politics in it, and Mr.. Con
ant did not know until yesterday
that he was ever thought of in connec'
ton with the position.- Wash. Cor

One of the Largest FRANCES Dlsbands

One of the most important and
largest oranges in the country, "Good
Hope Grange, of Nc Donough County,
Illinois, has voted, with only two dis.
sentiug voicies, to disband and sure n
der its character and its existence. The
reasons given by these grangers are
that the original principles of the or
ganization have been entirely ighOr-
ed that the officers have assumed
powers which are tyrannical, arbi-
trary, and entirely subversive of good
order i'm the lodge and in the cOmmun-
ity; that the officers of the National
Grange have behaved in systematical
ly autocratic way, ruling with rod of
iron that large sums of money have
been collected by the several State
Oranges and the National Grange,
for which no adequate return
has ever been realized by the individu-
al members of the order; that a dispO.
sitiOn has been from time to time man
ifested by the State and other officers
of the order to change the organization
from its original plan to that of poll
Iicial party that, in short, the Grange
movement of McDonough County is a
failure. The resolutions passed are the
more remarkable from the fact that
