~ An influential and we'll known
farmer of Unicoi county who hereto
fore has voted the Republican ticket
straightout and never did cast a
Democratic vote, informed one of
our merchants few days ago that
he would vote for Mcfarland in No
vember, if he lived, aud more, that
Mcfarland would carry every Re-
publican vote in his neighborhood.
He also remarked that we all must
keep in good spirits down in this end
of the moral vineyard, as the above
gentleman would certainly triumph
over Randolph the 7th of November,

TIE ELANK MOFENENT.

When the Federal government de-
sired its armies to capture the city
of Nashville. during the late war.
it ordered one OF its favorite chief
tains to assault and capture Fort
Donelson. many miles away from
that city. This was done, and with
it Nashville fell. When it desired
that Vieksburg should be captured.
it ordered its trusted Generals to
drive the Rebels from Port Gibson,
thirty miles below that city. This
done and the investment and cap
ture of Vicksburg was only ques-
ton of time.
1t is said that peace has its victo-
ries as well as war. And as often
are these victories won in effect. be-
fore the final clash of arms, in peace
as in war. We have before the coun-
try az present striking illustration
of this truth.
The masses of the American peo-
pie desire the Democratic party to
capture the Radical stronghold at
Washington. As a great prelimin-
airy flank movement, which will de-
eide the contest before the battle
opens, they have ordered one of their
number, tried, trusted and true
Old Blue Jeans Williams-to assault
and capture Indiana, away out west.
This done, and everybody knows the
key to the situation is won.
Already the assault has been made
and for weeks the battle has been
raging. But the result is no longer
doubtful now. The enemy fought
with the weapon of falsehood under
the ensanguined garment as ban
ner. The Democracy fought with
the artillery of truth, under the ban
ner of the Constitution. The enc
my's guns were short ranged only,
and exploded oft, while the long
ranged artillery of truth, admirably
served, spread havoc on every hand.
Before many Of our readers will
have seen this article. the wires will
have flashed the news of the surren-
der of the Republican fort in Indi-
ana. This done, and the victory Of
November is as certain as November
itself.

Most sincerely do we wish this couple

gent, industrious, sober, trustworthy
printer we have never found. May the
bright smile of a kind Providence con-
tinually beam on him and his, and may
their honeymoon last a lifetime and be

MAY their forms be locked in the chase of
true love,

Be folded and stitched in the regions above,
And finally bound up in Heaven"

LETTER FROM KNOXVILLE.
PETTLBONE AND Els UNSGRUPU
LOUSNESS.
KNOXVILLE, TENN, Oct. 4, 1876.

LOUSNESS
KNOXVILLE, TENN, Oct. 4, 1876.
To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
What diarrhea of eloquence is delug-
ing Tennessee at the present time. The
craft of the political thieves is being
fully exposed and they die hard, fighting
valiantly for the spoils upon which they
have so long fattened and Toasted. One
of the spoilsmen, Pettibone, is bolster
Gus in defense of all the thieves and can
see no wrong In anything done by Rad
ical. This small potato politician is a
nephew of old John Brown, of Harper's
Ferry notoriety, known as Ossawatamie
Brown. He could not avoid being the
nephew of the old sinner, but blood viii
tell in any age or country, and he has a
strong resemblance of old Johns photo
graphs This man Pettibone is the left
bower of old George Andrews, the Mich
igander who has tub mill in Knoxville,
famous for taking too much toll from the
poor distiller and wood-chopper who
happens to have a grist ground at his
federal mill Hence Pettibone fights
with the zeal of a hungry calf for the
$50 90 teat, which adds greatly to the
perquisites of old George and of himself
He is one of the most INSCRIPTIONS
stumpers that banks in favor of Hayes
and Wheeler He showeth his geneal-
ogy to be a true kinsman to old John
Brown. The fact that he is a nephew
of his uncle Brown, proves that Tennes-
see needs not even a battalion of Taft's
army, because he moves along without
anybody molesting him, and if old John
Brown was resurrected he could go
along our highways and byways without
being in danger of life or limb.
All the Federal ofice-holders, except
ing Judge Trigg, are taking lively
hand in teaching the negro that they are
in danger of being reduced to slaves, if
the Democracy succeeds to power. Got
IN helmet, what lie they do tell the
darkies to keep them from boiling their
ticket. Look out for many aoo,Jaels,
from this time until the election.

COLORADO.

There seems to be a doubt that
this State voted for the Republicans
on the Sd. Yet official figures so
far received show a ratio of gains.
which, if sustained IN other sections.
will give them the State by small
majority. This result is significant
Of no Democratic disappointment.
In 1872 Colorado gave 1886 Repub-
lican majority. In 1874 it gave q
1853 majority for the Democracy. In
1875 the Republicans had majority
Of nine in the Convention. In the
territorial legislature for the same
year the Democrats had a majority
of five in the council and the Repub-
licans a majority Of five in the house,
so that it is a difficult matter to de-
termine from past votes the present
result. The legislature elected will
choose the three electors to which
the State is entitled. In the Demo
cratic estimates the State is class
ed as doubtful, as also in the Re
publican estimates.
p. Slater returns, received at
the National Democratic headqnart-
ers in New York, on the 9TH, gives
the State to the Democrats by a
snug majority. A Democratic Gov
ernor and Congressman are undoubt-
eddy elected.
The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1876-10-11

We have reliable information that
Cooke county will give Randolph from
three to four hundred majority. Ham
Jlen, one hundred and fifty, and the
counties of Hancock, Claiborne and
Granger their old time Republican ma
jorities. Carry the news to Tilden.-
Herald and Tribune.
The Herald and Tribune is getting
to be a progressive Radical paper.
That is, it is learning to lie as reck-
lessly and as glibly as the New York
Times, or even the Knoxville Chron-
jcEe. Not one of these iterations is
true. 1t is strange that some of the
reliable informants'' of such pa
pers are not willing to back their
judgments to the extent Of a few
hundred dollars on its truth. At
any time, in either county, can be
found Barkises whose money says it
is a lie Garry the news to Shack>
nasty Jim!

= 1t is with sincere sorrow we chron-
icle the death of little CARROLL, the
lovely and intelligent infant son of Col.
j. Nj. and Mrs. Lizzie Bewley, who died
suddenly about 2 o'clock Sunday morn
ing last. His intelligent face, fragile
appearance and great sprightliness of
intellect made him a favorite with all
who knew him. It is needless to offer
words of sad coincidence or to express
| sympathy for our bereaved friends at
this dispensation, but we hope they will
bear it with fortitude Their little one
is far happier than it could ever have
been in this world, under the most for
tunate circumstances. Heavens portals
never opened to brighter angel than
little CARROLL.
i DR.. j. s. Burns, of Chattanooga,
was arrested on the I'd instant, charged
with setting fire to the Office of the Reg
| lister of Deeds, in that city, the previous
Saturday night, whereby many valuable
books of record were destroyed or mu-
tilated. After two days investigation
before a magistrate the proof elected
was so conclusive as to his guilt that he
was committed to jail without bail on
| the charge of arson. 1t seems he had
recently bought an abstract of letters
conveying all but two books, and would
have made large amount of money had
he not been detected. The two missing
books were found in his possession. DR..
Burns has hitherto stood well in the
community. He is native of Maine,
a graduate of Yale College, was for some
time private secretary of his uncle, II.
/. Kimble, of Atlanta. He was a law
yer and physician, great student and
an accomplished scholar, an adept at tel
egraphing as well as stenographic re-
porter, speaking several languages flu
emily. But Notwithstanding his accom-
JIIG GNlOCnC0 nIL1 Is
damning, and he will have but little use
| for them if he is sent to the protection
of Maj. Tom. O'Connor.
= They bite very slow, but when they
do bite we always catch 'em, and never
fail in getting big ones From L. w.
| Williams, the popular and accommoda-
ting manager of Mineral Hill farm we
are in receipt of sweet potato weigh
ing five and half pounds, a sample of
the product of his Hotel farm This is
a creditable specimen truly; but our en-
thusiastic and popular young Granger
friend, VIM. McSween, Esq, Newport,
Cooke county, sent US last week two
mammoth Hayti yams, one weighing six
and quarter and the other seven and
half pounds, as specimens of the fruits
of his agricultural experiments. Wills
bachelorhood is a sad drawback to an
Otherwise healthy usefulness. Under
the manipulating instructions of good
housewife, he could as easily raise ten
Founders as eight. Won't some fair
ladye take the hint and secure leap
