The sweetwater Enterprise.

10. J. WINS left here last Monday
afternoon for Sweetwater, where he
proposes to make his future home. He
has purchased an interest in the En-
terprise; with the proprietorship and
editorial conduct of which he will
hereafter be associated. He is a good
practical printer, familiar with the
details of the business, an expert hand
among the exchanges and ready
writer. Knowing him to possess these
qualifications, we will be pardOned for
saying that we believe he will add to
the interest of the Enterprise, and, to-
gether with his associate, make it a
first-class county paper, worthy the
patronage and support of the people of
Monroe.
The above we copy from the Athens
Post, and knowing something about
10. ourselves, we can endorse what the
Post says about him. We wish him
and the Enterprise success, financially.
The paper will remain in the quag.
mire of Democracy, as heretofore.

SALMON FOR OUR RIVER.
4 Liberal Oner.

We have been permitted to make
the following extract from letter of
Prof. Spencer +. Baird, Of the United
States Fish Commission, to a gentle
man in this city concerning the intro
duction of salmon into the Holston:
"If any of your public-spirited citi-
zens would furnish the funds, to the
amount of one or two hundred dollars,
to meet the cost of bringing the young
fish from Michigan to your State they
can have the salmon from the United
States stock, az many as they choose
to order"
This is very liberal offer, and we
should be very glad to announce that
one or more of our liberal-hearted cti-
zens had come forward and contributed
the necessary funds. The salmon Of
fered are the regular sea salmon
iSdlnlo Saldr), and different in some
particulars from the California salmon.
Any one who may be interested to
learn further of this matter can get all
the necessary information from either
DR.. Jno. NJ. Boyd or Professor Hunter
Nicholson.

THE ENTERTAINMENT LAST MIGHT
A Good uouse aud Grand Success
EverywRy,

]
Staub's Opera House was visited last
night by large and sppreciative au.
dience, to witness the grand entertain.
ment OF the Ticket-of-Leave Man,
and--as was evinced by their undi.
vided attention and frequent applause
during the entire play, which con
sumed near four hours in its execution
all were highly entertained and well
pleased with the performance. And it
is due the many performers-many OF
them appearing on the stage for the
first time-that they all did amazingly
well IN the rendition of their various
parts. We have not space to itemize
each act, but must notice some OF the
leading characters
The character of Bob Briefly, The
Ticket-of-Leave Man, and the princi-
pal actor in the scene, through his
many ups and downs in life-first as a
forger, robber, &C, then serving a term
in prison, and, finally, redeeming and
restoring his character-was well sus-
tanned by Prof Marshall, and we must
say that he displays gift in this re-
spect that Is rarely to be found off the
stage.
Miss Lucy Knafil, as Mary Edwards,
at first the poor songstress, earning
her bread by her songs, and finally the
loving and devoted wife of Bob Brier-
ly, proving true to him through all
his troubles, deserves especial mention
for the splendid manner in which she
sustained her character throughout.
She also certainly possesses a wonder
full talent as an amateur actress, and
one rarely to be equalled by any one
not a professional. Mr.. VIM. Wood
as Jim Dalton, alias Downey, Lucius
+. Copeland, and various other aliases
through his wild career, and Mr..
Will Cooper as Meter Moss, the
notorious counterfeter and accomplice
of Dalton, as well as Mr.. G. Barry, as
Hawkshaw, the famous detective who
followed up the two rascals and finally
caught up with both, all played their
parts exceedingly well
Then Mr.. Willie Bearden, as Green
Jones, and Miss Porter, first Emily st.
Evermond, and afterwards Mrs Jones,
were both hard to beat, and Miss Stew
art acted Mrs. Willoughby to perfec-
ton almost. In fact all the performers
deserve special notice but want OF
space forbids, and suffice it to say that
the characters were all well sustained
and we hope to have repetition Of
| the play again soon. We did not learn
the amount OF the proceeds, but are
satisfied that it was handsome sum
and will be quite lift for the McGhet
Street Baptist Church, for the benefit
of which the entertainment wa,
| given.

From tho Daily Chronicle Of Dec %,
The Fish Question.

To tho Editors Of the Chronicle
l learn that our citizens, by paying
the expenses of the enterprise, to the
amount of oneOr TWO hundred dollars,
can secure from the United States
Fish Commission a supply of young
sea SALMON for the purpose of stocking
the Tennessee River with that valua-
BILE fish. l think that DIR. Boyd and
Prof. Nicholson, who / understand
have with true public spirit invests
gated the subject and procured this
offer, are entitled to the thanks of the
community, and that we ought, by all
means, TO avail ourselves of the OPP
portunity. AS we have no Commits
sioners of Fisheries in this State,
whatever is done must, of course, be
by private enterprise. But the ad-
vantages to the entire community and
State will be so great that l am con1i9
dent the small amount of funds re-
quired can be raised with trifiing
effort. We know that great success
has attended the labors of the United
States Fish Commissioners in stocking
the streams and lakes of other States,
and as we have no State organization
here to do the work for us, let us, by
all means, raise the small fund re-
quired, and have the work done at
once. No community ever yet lost
anything by being public.spirted and
enterprising, and the present oppOrtu-
nifty is too good to be lost,

House Robbery.

Friday night while all were enjoying
themselves so pleasantly at the Second
M. r.. Church, some unprincipled
scOundTel entered the dwelling house
of Mrs. Rhodes, just few steps from
the church, and robbed it of number
of articles of iewelry. Some of il very
fine jewelIy, and was doubly valuable
to her because it belonged to her little
daughter who is dead. Several pieces
belonging to Miss Miller, who lives
with Mrs. Rhodes were also taken.
Mrs. Rhodes had taken special pre-.
caution to fasten all the doors and
window blinds securely before going
to the festival, fearing something OF
the kind, and had left q lamp burn
ing low on a table in the dining room;
but upon returning from the Festival,
she discovered the window shutter OF
the dining-roOm window, fright fac
ing the church, and only a short
distance from IT., open, the window
up, the lamp burning full blast and
the boxes which contained the
jewelry open and the contents gone, a
small amount of money left on the
mantle piece, was also gone. Nothing
else was missing that she knew of.
The back door of her bed room was
left open, and the dog belonging to
her next door neighbor was found in
In the house-when che went in.
IL was certainly an exceedingly bold
trick, being so near the church when
such a crowd was gathered. Parties
were passing into the yard frequently
after water, and in fact Mr.. Thomas
heard some one in the house when he
was in the yard after water, but took
no notice Of it, thinking some one had
stayed at home.
Mrs. Rhodes hasn't the slightest idea
who it could have been, but il
is to be hoped the perpetratoT
will be caught up with, the prop
eTty recovered and he or she pun
ished to the full extent Of the law.

G.. Il. Grassi an Italian aud a con-
tractor on the G. S. II. II. was robbed
Saturday night of S1420O at the house
OF Molly Green, degraded white
woman living in East Knoxville, to
which place he had been decoyed by
the woman Green and two negroes.
One of the negroes Jim Jones was at
once suspected of the deed, and the
case was given over to Policeman
Dempsey early Sunday morning,
who at once Instituted a search for the
chap, and after making djlligent
search throughout the day, it was
found that he had gone up the Rail-
road foot.
SO Dempsey accompanied by Alex
Iawless, left on the train Sunday
evening, in hunt of him, and caught
up with him at McMillan's, where he
had stopped aud bought ticket for
Bristol, and was aiming to take that
train. Dempsey searched him and
found on his person $3.50 Of the
money, besides his ticket which
he had paid some SO for, Jones
made a clean breast of it voluntarily
acknowledging thar he took the mon
ey, but claimed that he was put up TO
it by the woman Green, and the other
negro Yves. Thompson, and that he
was 10 divide with them. He also
had on new suit of clothes, which hc
said he bought from Mr.. Rouser, near
Knoxville, and paid $4,000 for them,
which was found to be correct, and
the amount recovered when they
came to town. So through the kind
ness of Mr.. Bailey he was kept in his
store all night and brought to Knox
vile early yesterday morning and
lodged in the calaboose, when Demp-
sey proceeded to arrest the other part
les. Yves. Thompson and Molly Green
and all were taken before ESD.
Ochs for trial. The proof not being
sufficient to implicate the two later,
they were released, and Jones was
bound over to court in the sum of
81, 900 and taken to Jail in default of
bail. OF the amount stolen Sll630
was recovered, but where the rest
went to It is not known.

The Career of Andrew Johnson.

This statesman and patriot has pass
ed away, but his deeds will live after
him. What a commentary is his fame
on the advantages of an American cit
izen? Unlettered and unaided, rely
ing upon himself, he advanced step by
step from the lowest station in life, to
the highest office in the gift OF the
American people. All this was ac-
complished by answering integrity,
dauntless courage, and persevering re-
search. By the exercise Of these prin-
ciples, it is in the power of any poor
and friendless boy to attain the same
grand result. The same success is at
tainable in the commercial world as in
the political, as is proven in the case of
DR.. TUFTS STANDARD PREPARA-
TONS. He, conscious Of their value,
labOred patiently, and to-day no medi-
cine has taken so firm hold on the
public estimation as his Liver Pills.
They stand on the topmost round Of
the healing ladder.
