WEEKLY AND DAILY FOR 1875.
 The Weekly Sun has now attained a circulation of over seventy thou sand copies. Its readers are found in every State and Territory, and it's quality is well known to the public. We shall not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old standard, but to improve and add to its variety and power.
 The Weekly Sun will continue to be thorough newspaper. All the news of the day will be found in it, condensed when unimportant, at full length when of moment, and always we trust, treated in clear, interesting and instructive manner.
 It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the best family newspaper in the world. It will be full of enter taining and appropriate reading of every sort, but will print nothing to offend the most scrupillous and deli cate taste. It will always contain the most interesting stories and TO- mances of the day carefully selected ana leglDly prilllcu.
 The Agricultural Department is a prominent feature in the Weekly Sun, and it's articles will always be fresh and useful to the farmer.
 The humber of men dependent on politics is increasing, and the Weekly Sun is their paper especial ly. 1t belongs to no party, and oheys no dictation, contending for principle, and for the election of the best men. It exposes the cor cuption that disgraces the country and threatens the overthrow Of re- publican institutions. It has no fear of knaves and seeks no favors from their supporters.
 The markets of every kind and the fashions are regularly reported in its columns
 The price of the Weekly Sun is one dollar a year for sheet of eight pages, and fifty-siX columns. As this barely pays the expenses of pa- per and printing, we are not able to make any discount or allow any premium to friends who may make special efforts to extend it's circula- tion. Under the new law, which requires payment of postage in ad- vance, one dollar a year, with twen- , ty cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get up club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this rate. Anyone who sends one dollar and twenty cents will get the paper postpaid, for year.
 We have no travelling agents.
 The Weekly Sunlight pages, fifty-six columns. Only Sl.20 q year, postage prepaid. No discount from this rule.
 The Daily Sun.-A large four page newspaper of twenty-eight col umns. Daily circulation over l2o- GOO. All the news for two cents. Subscription, postage prepaid 55 cents q month, or S6.50 q year. Tc clubs of ten or over a discount oi twenty per cent.

To the Editors Of the Chronicle:

twenty-six, which is four and a-half
bushels to the bushels sowing. De-
duct one bushel from the four and
a-half for seed, and count the tax on

then pay the toll and tell me, who

How to Preserve the Color of Leav

To the Editors Of the ChrHicIe:
AS the trees are beginning to put on
their autumn dress, 1t will doubtless
interest many of your readers TO learn
a good way of preserving the brightly
colored leaves. Heat a common flat
iron to the degree common in ironing
clothes; set it on a cake of beeswax,
until the latter begins TO melt and adj
here to the iron then iron the leaves
thoroughly, preferably upon smooth
cloth. If the leaf be well ironed, on
both sides, its pores becomes filled with
the wax, so as to keep out moisture,
and prevent decay and change OF color
If the leaves should not be pretty dry
already, they would doubtless be i'm.
proved by ironing dry before applying
the wax. Clusters of leaves can thus
be preserved, in more natural positions
than when pressed between papers. II
the leaves are detached, they can be sc
woven into the meshes of stretched
mosquito netting, as TO make a very
pretty transparency for a window, oil

CLEVELAND, Oct, 18th, 1875


CLEVELAND, Oct, 18th, 1875.
Last night the sky looked as bright
as we have ever seen it-in fact 1t was
beautiful, and little did any one
dream that to-day it would be pouring
down rain. But go it did, and did not
require the powers of prophet to fore
tell that the Fair had virtually closed,
and that the attendance would be very
small to-day. We hardly considered
it worth while to go to the Grounds,
but during slight lull we ventured
out and found that nearly everybody
else had come to the same conclusion
we had. A small crowd was present
but it was principally com
posed of parties who had articles
on exhibition, and came out to see AZ
ter them. Also others who had been
awarded premiums, and who were
present to receive the same. This was
about all that could be done to-day
and when the officers of the Associa
ton were convinced that they had al
the crowd they would he likely &c
get, the premium list was read, anC
those of the premium.holders whC
were present were paid Off in plated
ware, and by noon the Fair closed.
In addition to the list of premiums
furnished yesterday, the Art Commit
tee awarded the premium on crayoI
sketches TO Mrs. A. Z. Blunt, and OF
pencil drawing to Miss Maggie Bard
of Atlanta, on a fruit piece.

Keep the Money at Home.

TO the Editors Of the Chronicle;
Some weeks since, you gave some
structures on the practice Of citizens
making purchases North, Of articles
which can be obtained at home. !
wish to give you IA counterpart TO this
Let our merchants, in purchasing sup
plies up North, leave u little margin
for home productions. For instance 4:
We take into Knoxville some canned
tomatoes, tomatoe ketchup or vinegar,
of first quality, and behold the grocers
have made early and large purchases
of these and other articles in Balti-
more, Cincinnati, or elsewhere; vine
gar, sharpened with injurious acids,
canned fruit, of less size, with fancy
tables so it takes all winter to dispose
of e wheelbarrow load, and thereby
going from house 10 house to dickel
1t away! As long as we pursue such
suicidal policy we shall be poor and
live in a panic. We hear much said
about "inflation.n If we had a banh
at every corner they would not scatte
the money among us unless we hav,
something to sell. Enough has beef
written a hundred times to satisf.
every reasonable man, but keep it up
