In Promotion.

The whole human figure should be
six times thelength of the feet. Whether
the form be slender or plump, the rule
holds good any deviation from it is a
departure from the highest beauty of
proportion. The Greeks made all their
statues according to this rule The
face, from the highest point of the fore
head where the hair begins, to the chin,
is one-tenth of the whole statue. The
hand, from the wrist to the middle
finger, is the same. From the top of
the chest to the highest point of the
forehead is a seventh. If the face,
from the roots of the hair to the chin,
be divided into three equal parts, the
first division determines the place where
the eyebrows meet, and the second the
place of the nostrils. Height from the
feet to the top of the head is the dis
lance from the extremity of the fingers
when the arms are extended.

FIRST rouut-Quitc a Time was orcu-

Harris made q move that meant bust
ness aud compelled Whaien to break
his hold, which was decided to be
equivalent 10 fall, and the reruit was
announced first fall in favor of Harris.
Second round-After a skirmish of
about twenty minutes, during which
! Whalen appeared cool aud cautious,
Harris, much less SO, exposed him
self, and Whalen locked knees with

back. Third round-Harris was still
confident, aud was this time unusually
cautious, evidently afraid Of being again
thrown backward and braced himself
we'll forward. This was at once taken
| advantage Of by Whalen, and with a
quick dexterous trip he brought him
on his hands and knees. giving the
match and the stakes to Whaien. An

jolcins over developments made in the

proved to contain we'll defined and rich

Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1874-02-21

A MEMORIAL has been presented to
Congress, praying that the 18th of Feb
ruary, the birthday Of Abe Lincoln, be
legalized as national holiday. Mine
Cot, vot a beeples!" The birthdays
of Washington and Jefferson and Mad
ison have, up this day, been left with
nothing but the gratitude of their
countrymen, to prompt their annual
commemoration. But, under the par
tizan and sectional despOtism of to-
day, Congress is invoked to enforce, as
a national holiday, the birth day of
northern fanatic whose claims TO i'm
mortality are founded upon the whole
sale destruction of the property of the
South, and ruthless violation OF the
Constitution. of which Washington,
Jefferson, Madison and others, were
the venerated founders. This move
ment, however, is not designed so much
to honor Lincoln, though the flower OF
the flock he headed, as to insult the
people of the South, by a legalized,
annual commemoration of the wrongs
they suffered at the hands of abolition
fanatics. A national holiday, indeed !
If the North claims to be the nation,
then, in that sense, it may be national,
butt is sheerimpudence to assume that
the South is SO devoid Of spirit and
self-respect as to make the holiday ma
tional, by participating in the jubilees
commemorative of its wrongful inya-
sion and the savage brutality Of its in
vaders.

TIE Shelby county Convention, held
at Bartlett, a few days ago, seems
to have been truly representive body,
in which was represented every shade
of political opinion, outside OF Radi
calism. The ruling spirit seemed to
be that of Cancellation and compro-
mise, and if the platform adopted, can
be the platform OF every county in the
State, Radicalism will have poor
chance for success. AS this is the first
county convention we have seen
any account of, We lay its resolutions
before our readers as material for re-
Election and an incentive 10 similar ac-
ton, on the part of Montgomery.
Harmonyis greatlyneeded in this local
ity. and it can be more certainly Sc
cured by early action thanby postpone
ment until the field is filled with cam
didates, and the embers of discord are
famed into fame. The highest inter
est of any political community, is to
secure ar honest administration of its
home affaiIs, andto 90 this, there must
be unity of purpose as well as concert
of action. What is any mans desire
for office compared with the public
good? What right has any man to say
to the people, you shall elect me, or l
will elect a Radical? What sort of
patriots are they, who can be thus bull
lied into a disregard of their highest
interests2
