ON THE BATTLE FIELD.-The Re-
publican and Autobiography hosts
met In political conflict on the Marion
County battle field on the 18th, OF
October, 1874. Sampson, the mighty,
carried the Congressional banner,
Winslow the Judicial, and Hamrick
the banner bearing the device Of the
Clerk 8 seal, at the head ofthe Repub-
lican army. Gates, Anderson and
Shaw led the opposing hosts.
Now happily the roar OF political ar
tillery Is bushed. Peace once more
smiles upon the scene Of the conflict,
and the allurements of commerce
invite the participants to friendly
meeting upon the same field, under
the white banner Of peace, to attend
the grand sale of Pianos, Organs, Mel
odeons, Guitars, Violins, Sheet Music,
and Musical Merchandise Of all kinds,
at Stewards Music Store, East side of
Public square, Knoxville, where a full
