The Catholic and Protestant Clergy OF the Omitted
States.

THE New York correspondent of the Lon
don Post writes o very interesting letter on
the Catholic Church In the United States,
which shows the influence exercised by the
Catholic clergy over even irreligious
Americans. lndifferentiem, he asserts,
exists among Americans to a far greater
extent than is generally supposed. Those
who have fallen int" this mode of thought
have generally been educaTed as Protes-
tants but they have drift"d away into
what is not exactly infidelity, but which
practically cOmss very near to it. 81 live
in q boarding house on Fourth avenue"
said an American friend to me the other
day, "where there are twenty. five gentle
men aud fifteen ladies'. Three OF the gen.
tlemen, two of whom are Catholics, go to
church, the other twenty two never go, and
think you will find about this proportion
all over the country among the reading part
of the community. Now, these indifferent
tists,' Americans somehow or the other,
have a great respect for the Catholic clergy,
O respect and esteem, I am sorry to say,
they in no wise extend to the Protestant
preachers. they see these Catholic priests
hard at work, devotipg their whole time to
q service which has NO earthly reward, and
doing this, by the way, not with sour faces
and canting voices, but heartily "a if they
liked it. While the Protestant clergy man
in New York has his fine house, his pretty
wife, and from SlO, 900 to SlO0,000 year
to live on, and he gives in return for all
this two sermons q week tie Catholic
priest on the other hand, lives in small
house at the back of his parish of 25 900
souls, he says Mass every day and two
Masses every Sunday, he hears confessions
by the hundreds, visits the sick, burries the
dead, reproves the erring, baptlzes the ba.
bies, is father, friend and counsellor of al
the poor In his parish, is seen in the dark
CELLARS, or climbing up barrow stairways
carrying the Sacrament to the dying, is
found at the hospitals and the Jail, and
house of reform, and all be gets for this
labor is the food he eats and the clothes he
wears. Now this contrast strikes the keen
American who detests can't and humbug,
and in spite of all his prejudice against
Popery, he has respect for the priest"

Two PIcTUREs.-United States Senator
Sargent. of California recently made a re-
markable speech. Here is an extract :
"Have yon thought, fellow citizens," said
he, "that the reduction of the National
debt has been $3.50 minute since you sat
here and l commenced talking7 Taking
the average of the whole time, the reduc-
ton of thedebt has gone on at that rate.
Why, take your watch and look at 1T. See
the second -hand ne it flies : at each tick of
the second hand two dollars during the
whole time since Grants inauguration, by
day and by night, upon week day and Sun
day-two dollars per second in gold has
gone OF the national debt" To which the
Chicago Times adds this strain: "Have
you ever thought, fellow citizens, that you
are being taxed at the rate of $5,093 q
minutef Taking the average of the whole
time and comparing it with the National
and local taxation, the levying of taxes is
going on at that rate. See the second
hand as it flies; at each tick of that second
hand since the beginning of the year
1875, by day and by night, Sundays and
week days, &34 80 per second has gone out
of the peoples pockets. And while that
S34 so was being taken out. of the peoples
pockets, only 90 per second was taken Off
the public debt"

LIMESTONE, L. Tenn, Jan. 13, rs
To the Editors of the Chronicle:
In passing over the +. T., Va. & Ga
r. r., there is no wayside village Of
more importance than Limestone
Hence, trust it will not be uninter.
esting to some of your many readers tc
hear from this point.
This village is situated on the south.
ern border Of Washington county, and
! lies partly in Greene county, and is in
the center of very fertile region OF
country. The trade of this place has
been good, and constantly on the in
crease since the war. The flour ship
ped from this depot annually exceeds
the amount shipped from any depot
between Bristol and Chattanooga
Some Of the best Touring mills of East
Tennessee are in the immediate vi.
entity of this place. This is also the
birth place of the celebrated Davy
Crockett, who passed only small part
of his childhood in this vicinity. One
thing that will contribute to the per-
manent prosperity of Limestone is the
great interest she has taken in educa-
tional matters. Limestone Academy
which has just been recently compile
ted, is one of the best country school
buildings in the State. There has been
"A furnishing school here for years.
Prof w. A. Nelson, the Principal, is
one among the best educators in the
country.
Washington county can justly boast
Of having the best common schools of
any county in Tennessee, This happy
state of affairs is due almost entirely
to the interchangeable labor and unaba-
ting zeal of Prof. Henderson Presnell,
the County Superintendent. Prof.
Presnell was unanimously reelected
Superintendent at the last County
Court. No man in the State stands
higher in the estimation Of educators
everywhere than he. He is regarded
by the State authorities AS Il model
superintendent, and was appointed by
Mr.. Fleming to conduct the three Dis
trict Institutes held last summer at
Knoxville, Cleveland and Limestone
respectively. Had every county as
efficient a Superintendent as this, (no
Otiense meant to any, the prejudice
that exists among the people against
the office, would soon pass away.
There is good deal of specu-
latiOn here in regard to who will be
our next United States Senator. The
prospect for ex- President Johnson be-
ing elected is regarded as very flatter-
ing, l find nearly everyone favors the
election of Mr.. Johnson in preference
to any of the candidates now offering
This seems to be the prevailing senti-
ment throughout the country.
His unblemished character for integfi-
ty and honesty, duling n long and
eventful public career; his thorough
acquaintance with all the machinery
of government; and his advocacy of
low tax, are now being favorably con-
sidered by the people.

Messy Creek News--.EducatiOnaI
Items.

Messy CREEK, TENN, Jan. l2, rs.
TO the Editors Of the Chronicle.
Messy Greek certainly is determined
not to be surpassed by any other To-
cality in East Tennessee, in the point
of education.
This is due to the energetic spirit ex-
isting among the people Slnce my
last article in your widely circulated
paper, over five thousand dollars have
been secured in good bonds for Messy
Creek College, and about that amount
has been pledged for the establishment
of a Presbyterian female school at this
place. May God bless such labor!
The purchase of the Branner
property 10y the Trustees of
Messy Creek College has been
anticipated, but the writer has leaened
that, owing to will made by the own
er at his death, n satisfactory deed
could not he given. We learn that
Maj. A. J. Mountcastle proposes sell
ing his splendid and newly erected
dwelling on very reasonable terms.
The Trustees will probsly purchase
from the Major.
School opened at the college with
natterlng prospects for better II not
the best term in the history of the
college. Hope such is the case. The
young gents of the college presented
President Goforth with fine rocking
chair on the llth of January, as a tes-
timonial of their regard for aud appre
citation of his untiring industry and
labor for the improvement of their
minds and hearts.
The present was thankfully re-
ceived and highly appreciated by Pres
dent GofOrth.
New students are constantly swell
ing the number in the College, and
the boarding houses are crowded.
| will inform your reaher- in Knox
county, that Rev. l. b. Kimbrough
will be around in your county in few
days, If he has not already come, to
take bonds for Messy Creek College.

Mr.. Gildrn says men who go there,

Real working men, who attend to
their business and have nothing to do
