SIR: A communication about Government

AL REPUBLICAN some time ago in which the writer
attempted to show that q salary Of q, 40 q year
is SUFFICIENT to support an ordinary family hand
somely and well in Washington. The cost Of
food for q family consisting Of man and wife
and three children was placed, If We mistake not,
at SIS per month. or Is per month for each per-
SON. The communication throughout was so
palpably unreasonable and erroneous that we

were mistaken, for II has drawn out quite num-
Der Of able and elaborate replies from different
individuals, while the same affords another

COUNTY, CONTENTION

Dr. Owens, member for TIamblen
county of the Congressional Execu.
tive Committee, in a card to-day,
calls a County Convention on Mon.
day, 10Th day Of August, for the
purpose Of appointing delegates to
the Democratic State Convention,
to be held at Nashville on the 18th
of August. This action of the coun-
ty Chairman is prudent and well
timed. The nomination of Candl-
date for the Legislature from Ham.
blen and Granger, at that time, is a
question to be considered. 1t is a
matter in which every citizen of the
county is deeply and personally in
terested. and one in which they
should manifest the hyeliest action.
All we desire is that none but an
honest, faithful, competent man may
be selected, if it is thought advisable
TO make such selection at the time.
The time for work is short and to
secure harmony of purpose and con-
cert of action it is absolutely es-
sential for the people in the various
civil districts to move promptly, so
as to insure full and fair represen-
tation of the Democrats and Con-
servatives of the counties.

of Paris, Henry county, West Ten
nessee, visited Morristown last week,
and made the acquaintance of many
of our citizens. The Judge, as is
known to most Of our readers, will
be a candidate before the Demo-
cratic State Convention for the
nomination for the next Governor
ship of the State; and visited this
section in that interest. He is
not politician in the general ac-
eeptation of that term. but is a
gentleman well and favorably known
all over the State,-has filed high
legislative and judicial positions-is
a man of fine ability and great per-
sonal popularity-of enlarged, liber-
al and patriotic views, and, what is
very material to the correct informa-
tion Of the people, is free from the
influence and dictation Of rings and
cliques. If nominated, he will be.
elected, and if elected, would most
emphatically be the Governor of
Tennessee. If he receives the NOM
ination, we, and we believe our en-
tire party in this section, will give
him a cordial support.

A "REMINISCENCES.

An old and valued friend, whose
familiar and benignant greeting we
missed on our last visit to Knoxville,
in a business letter thus alludes to
the ovation to Gem. Burnside at that
place on the 4th:
/ could not participate in doing
honor to Gen. Burnside on the 4th.
IL it was to have no sectional or po-
litical significance, why not at the
same time have invited Gen. John
ston or some Confederate General to
join in the celebration? Many per.
sons are uncharitable enough to be-
lieve that there are mercenary mo-
tiVes at the bottom of the whole pro-
ceeding. was here when Burnside
came into Knoxville. Our old friend,
Maj. Lyon, hearing that the Federals
were expected, had concealed his
stock upon his island. The day that
they came in hand-bills were posted
all over the town to the effect that
private property would be protected.
Having faith that this pledge would
be carried out, two of the Majors
friends advised him of this assured
protection, and in their credulous
simplicity suggested that he might
bring in bis stock. He did so, and
fn less than week was robbed by
this same General, or those under
his command, of all that he had. In
fact, the first paper issued after the
coming In Of the General, contained
the advertisement of his Quarter
Master. calling upon the loyal peo-
pl0 to bring In supplies for the army,
Tor which they would be paid-and
10 point out the property of rebels
for seizure. Was there ever viler
Punic faith? Some OF our people
seemed to have forgotten the wanton
destruction of property by the torch,
perpetrated by this same distin-
puished u General. North Knox
Vile was laid in ashes-and by his
order

The Gallatin Examiner, which is
not without honor as a prophet IN
its section, submits the prediction
that If the Democratic party, of
Tennessee, should, unwisely, not
keep up with the advanced, progress
siye ideas of this day if they per-
sist in clinging to the Bourbonism
OF the past-to be more direct, if
they insist on opposing universal
education-the Radical party will
adrotily take the start of them and
it will not be very long before we
viii be in minority in Tennessee.
The man who stands in the way of
free schools, will be swept out of
the way, oFrun over. The weak-backed
and weak-kneed had best take care
Of themselves, and get on the strong
side if they would be happy. The
democratic party made a good start
at the last Legislature and we give
it full credit for it. III it would
hold IT'S ground, it nnst not retro
grade, but go forward.

The soil is good, and what Is better.
some Of the owners know how to
use it. The wheat crop is good,
but, as is the case generally this
year, the yield is noe so great as
was expected before harvest. Not
withstanding the dry weather the
corn looks we'll. The French Broad
bottom land always grows fine corn.
Two miles distant are the FeIkner
lead mines. The quantity of gelina
lately discovered is very large. /
hope to spend a day at the mines
soon and give you the particulars.
4 am hopeful that this interest is
more valuable than the most can
guine now imagine.
Take it all together, this people
ought to be happy. They have
"peace and plenty" and seem to
know it. Yours truly.

UNDER THE WALNUT TREE.

ATKINS SECOND VISIT TO THE ORACLE
OF THE WALNUT TREE-wHAT He
GATHERED OF PARTY PURITY AMI
PARTY TACTICS.
Under the WALNUT TREE, July Ii, 1874.
DEAR GAZETTE EARLY this morn
ing, while the dew drops spanked
on the grass, and the birds which
sing SO sweetly their joyous mathis,
were giving concert in the old
Walnut, repaired to the temple of
the rural genius, and received ready
responses. The burden of the oracle
is as follows:
The days of political purity have
passed. The masses are not so
corrupt, bat passion has run so high
and party discipline has been so
thorough, that candidates can only
be elected who adhere rigidly to
party policy. This has been she
case, especially since the war. The
rebel element has been in the min
ority in East Tennessee. Although
honest and capable, it is regarded
as unsafe by the Union element to
trust the ship of State to men who
Tisked their all for what was regard
ed by them (the rebels) as right.
The hatred engendered by the civil
strife is not yet sufficiently allayed
for men to lay aside prejudices to
vote for men for merit alone. The
Walnut Tree is sorry that so many
rebels have political aspirations at
this iuncture. 1t advises that class
of men not to compromise their man
hood to eschew trickery; to follow
earnestly those things flat viii de-
velop the best interests of the coun-
try; to push forward the cause of
agriculture, commerce, manufactur-
ing interests, educational and moral.
It further advises to be ready to
vote for good men. regardless of the
past; not to be captiyated by red
headed willy congressman, or, aspir-
ing political hacks, and above all,
to be men enough to feel extreme
for such men as run the
Jonesboro' Herald and Tribune, who
are anxious to make division in |
the Republican party, provided reb-
els stay in the back ground and do
nothing but vote for their men.
i asked the genius what of the
Changers 2? It's reply is quite clear
They are the hope Of the country,
provided all are not candidates.
This is the trouble. The mania for |
Office IL too great.
This must suffice for the present. |
Yours truly.

CsPELAND's SPRING,
JEFF. Co.. Tenn, July is, 1874.
To the Editor of the Mo7-istown Gazettes
Perhaps note from this vicinity
will not be devoid of interest to the
readers of the GAZETTE.
This Spring is on French Broad
river, seven miles above cambridge,
in the midst of a fine agricultural
region. The water is a combination
of red, white, and black sulphur.
For years It has been the resort for
the invalids throughout all this re-
gion. Almost every class of dis
ease seems to give way by the use
of the water. To me, and my family
it has always proved a sovereign
antidote. The great trouble has
been the entire absence of accom-
Enodations for visitors. It is hoped
che property is in condition that
it can now be improved. Col. L. b
Miller, of Greeneville, has purchased
the dover and two interests of the
FIVE heirs. If the other three inter
ests could be procured. it would be
made most popular resort.
Ny Tfe-iong friend and college
class mate, Prof. J. L. Mcdaniel,
has purchased a farm, built school
house, and opened school near the
Spring. Through his kindness,
have temporary home for my fanl-
ly, in his school room. He viii,
think. succeed. as he is a thorough
christian gentleman. an excellent
scholar, and has had several years,
successful experience. Parents can
commit their sons and daughters TO
the care of no better man.
In this vicinity are some OF the
best farmers in East Tennessee.
