HOW To DRIVE AWAY ALL THE CRAWLING PESTS
THAT ISFEsr OUR HOUSES.
How 10 destroy insects is a question which in
terests nearly every housekeeper. The Boston
Journal of Chemistry says that hot alum water
and black ants, ccckroahcs, spiders, chintzbugs
and oil the crawling pests which iniest our houses
The Journal gives the following directions for its
application;
Take two pounds of alum, and dissolve it in
three or four quarts of boiling water let It stand
upon the tire until the alum disappears, then ap-
ply il with o brush, while nearly hot, to every
JOINT or crayice in your closets becsteads pantry
shelves, and the like. Brush the crevices IN the
floor OF the skirting or mop-boards If you sus-
pect that they harbor vermin. II, in whitewash-
ing ceiling plenty of alum ID added To the lime
it will also serve to keep insects at distance
Cockroaches will fee the paint which has been
| washed down In cool alum water Sugar barrels
| and boxes can be freed from ants by drawing n
| wide chalk mark Just round the top OF them. The
marks must be unbroken or they Will creep over
il; but a continuous chalk mark, half an inch in
width, will set these depredators al naught Pow
dered alum or borax will keep the chiGtzLug at
a respectable distance. and travellers should
always carry package of 1t in their handbags
to scatter under and over pillows in places where
| they have any reason to suspect the prescuce OF
| such bed-felows. To this We may add that We
have recently got rid OF an army OF large ants,

soil pipe counectinga water closet with the sewer,
by scattering powdered canphor on the shelves

Let it be remembered that the Sen
atorial Convention for this county and

Saturday, and a full attendance Of

like to have her man nominated, yet
we are all willing to give cordial
and hearty support to any good man
who may be put forward by the con-
vention. Our desire is to harmonic
all conflicting elements, if there be
any, and present g solid front to civil

With all due respect to the claims
and qualifications of other candidates
before the convention to be held here
next Saturday TO nominate a candi-
date for State Senator, We think no
one viii come nearer 'filling the bill'
than DR. Jordan. He stands squarely
on the platform adopted at Nashville,
which is sufficient evidence Of his po-
litical principles; he is an educated,
accomplished and polite gentleman;
he is well and favorably known in
both Carroll and Gibson counties;
and he viii, if elected, do all in his
power to advance the material inter-
ests of his constituents. If be is not
nominated, however, he will, with all
true patriots, work for the nominee
of the party.

REVEREND STRAWBERRIES.
The VI. =. Church, South. Held Re
sponsibIe for KukiuN OutraGes.

We learn from the New York pa
pers that, at a meeting of Methodist
ministers in that city, last Monday
night, preacher named Lansing, who
has charge of a "mixed" congrega-
ton here, read the following extract
from a letter, as illustrating the con-
diti0n of affairs in Tennessee:
The prompt movement Of the Sec
retary Of War and President Grant in
in reference 70 themurders in Tennessee
has hushed things for the time being.
1t is more quiet now. Five churches
and a camp-meeting shelter burned

ference is the result to our church of
the white mans party. Brother Key
writes that he cannot travel some
places in his district. Allen Faulk
has been threatened and pistols -four
ished about him. Cornelia HAYDEN is
teaching near where those sixteen
were taken from Jail. Allen Faux
was ordered to leave the place where
he is teaching-quicker or die; he left.
Some of our white preachers have
been threatened, and had this white
mans party the power the negroes and
the white Union people, and especial

have to retire or die. These. 'rebs'

it was to be held responsible for the

as those Of recent date The leading
paper of the Church South had not
only failed to denounce these outrages
but had actually apologized for them.
Numbering six hundred thousand

ment and regulate affairs in the inter.

The Radical State Convention met
in Chattanooga last Wednesday, and,
after bu~hwhacking around several
hours, adopted some resolutions which
touch civil rights very gingerly, much
to the disgust of the negroes and some
few of the whites. We zip from the
Union and American the following
telographic synopsis:
We are in favor Of the fu,l and
equal enjoyment Of accommodations,
advantages, rights and privileges by
all citizens, and other persons within
the jurisdiction Of the United States,
without regard to race, creed Of color,
and at the same time we deem it I'm
necessary and unvise to attempt, by
Congressional legislation Of otherwise,
to compel, as between such races,
crceds or colors, the Joint exercise Of
such accommodations, advantages,
rights or privileges, but we recognize
the principle which Is cider than our
constitution, that every mans house Is
his castle, and that under the govern
ment every citizen, white or black,
has the right TO bear arms in conform
ity to law and TO express his opinions
without interference or mol->.a,ion.
The other resolutions favor free Ma
tional banking, return to specie pay
ment, oppose paying the Torhist issue,
payment of the public debt, dea0Wc-
Is thefunding and assessment Ills, en-
dorse free schools, ask for improvement
of the mouth Of the Mississippi and
nayigable rivers of Temcssce, de
nounce Browns administration for
inefhciency and as disastrous in the
extreme, and request all citizens to
rally to the Republican party.
Horace Maynard was then nominG-
ted By reclamation. In q speech ac-
cepting the nomination, he endorsed
the Civil Rights bill fully; claimed
that it did not mean mixed schools.
except those supported by the United
States; said better, however, to have
said nothing about schools, as it was
premature; attacked the financial
plank in the Democratic platform,
and defended the national bank sys-
TEN; denounced outrages, and limited
that Brown ought to have done more,
bat did not charge it; and announced
that he would make a thorough can
vasS Of the State.
East Tennessee Republicans are
disguised. They say the party Is bul-
lied; they want no nomination. May
nard's views on Civil Rights make it
doubtful ii the Republicans can carry
a single district in East Tennessee.

From a private letter received from
Madison y Roads, Ala, we clip the
following items Of interest:
Glad 10 hear that quiet is restored
in your county. Everything quiet
and peaceable in Madison, the negroes
generally working well and behaving
themselves, with but few exceptions.
The great majority of them in North
Alabama do not seem TO desire anv
further "civil rights than they already
have, which the people are willing 10
concede to them and sustain them in.
We have no candidates for county
officers who openly endorse the social
features of the civil rights bill. The
contest Is going to be hot and excited
in this State this fail, but from present
indications the State will 90 Demo
cratic. The feelings are growing more
bitter every day against radicalism,
and its coming TO the Grace issue
fast fear rather too fast for the
good Of the country.
The crops: Corn generally pretty
good in this county; that is, the people
will make enough for their own CON
sumption; but little north of this,
in Lincoln, Giles and Marshall coun-
ties, Tenn, they are very light. They
tell me that in some localities in those
counties they won't make the seed
corn they planted. Cotton Is not good
through here, not over half a crop;
it dropped the forms the last dry spell
we had, in July and August. We
are having a fine season for potatoes,
turnips, cabbage, etc. Our section Of
country is quite healthy and;tlie people
