Chairman Of the Democratic Executive
Committee of this Congressional dis
trict. Being unacquainted with the
usages and precedents of the Democratic
party in this State regarding the APP
pointmeut of Congressional Executive
Committees. we have been in error asto
which was the Legitimate Committee Of
the two that were appointed. Col Nc
Kinney's explanation of the disputed
point was perfectly satisfactory, and we
frankly own our mistake. We fully
coincide with Col. Nc. In his views on
the political situation, and hope further
discussion Of the "two Committees" will
be dropped, AZ it win only create dis
cord in our party at time when il
should be most avoided.
We were pleased at the Kindness and
encouragement expressed inyour advice
to John We claim to be one among
the many of Mr.. Starnes' personal
friends; but to be candid with John,
in view of the dog law and his vote in
the senatorial election, we would not
advise him TO be candidate for re-elec-
ton, except Leo, Jr., ]" or "McGonigle''
was allowed clear track against him
on these terms, and these only, would /
advise him to risk the race.

III we had a sufficient amount of
money, brains and influence, we would
start up a new party in Tennessee this
summer, and we would carry the State
like a fash. The party should be an
honest, patriotic one, with the love of
our whole country for its cornerstone
We would select qualified, business
men for all the offlces-men who would
attend to their duties for the salaries re-
ceived and not speculate on the public
funds nor sell themselves to Ring-mas

Knoxville, for Governor practical

who has no party axe to grind, and no

fill the Legislature with such men as

and talent from all parts of the State.

Tobacco.

Rev. David d. Anderson, practical
m4n of slrewd business sense, living in
Hawkins county, has been experiment.
ing for few years past in the cultiva-
ton of tobacco, and he has beer very
successful. He says the raising of the
weed here is, without doubt, very profit
able. lie has made money at the bust
ness and thinks others can do likewise.
A specimen of his last years crop of 80
acres, was brought to us by himself last
week, and our judgement is. that Mr.
Anderson's tobacco is as fine as any that
can be raised in the best lands of Vir-
giuia- The specimen we have. is new
ground tobacco, of a rich color, well
cured and of fine flavor. 1t will, un
doubtedly bring a fine price in market.
We mention this to induce others to en-
gage ia the culture Ofthe plant. Mr.. A.
will take pleasure in explaining the en-
tire process of raising and curing to any
one who desires the information. He
Is preparing to plant largely this year,
and we hope his success will continue

FROM TATE SPRINGS.
TATE SPRINes. March 21. 1877

TATE SPRINGS, March 21, 1876.
To the Editor Of the MorristOwn Gazette:
1t has been arranged between myself
and your authorized agent, cousin John
G. Burts, that I should write you let
ter for the GAZETTE and that you are
to publish it. and puff it as one of the
master literary productions of the age;
and call for others from the same direc-
ton, and then / am to subscribe for the
| GAZETTE. Now, rememember you are
to stand to any contract he may make in
regard to your paper. Now for the let
ter, but hold on better have a subject
| suggested to cousin John for him to
select me a subject, as was good deal
| like one Mr. Zimmerman, when he was
drumming among US some time since for
the Reflector, of your town, and had al
appointment to preach at the Hall on
/ Sunday evening and wanted Mr.. Barbre
to give him a subject to preach from,
and said he could preach as well from
one subject as another; and we all be-
| lieve il since we heard him try. Now,
Dir. Editor, we are not a very honest
people over here, but wonderful sharp
set; and a splendid set of scribes, as you
will at once see from the hieroglyphics
contained in this epistIe to the Romans.
Our irrepressible friend, E. o. Tate, last
summer, wrote notice and stuck it up
at the Hall to the effect that preaching
would be at the Springs instead of at the
Hall that evening; and when the crowd
gathered it was amusing to see them
trying to decipher the notice. At length
they made out his name, and the words
preaching" and Springs" and gave
up in despair. Finally, a fast young
man 1--WE have 'em over here snatched it
off the wall with the remark, d if we
don't find out what 1t means, and with
his hat in one hand and notice in the
other, he started In long trot for the
Springs to get Tate to read it, but the
young man aid not come back that even
ing in time for preaching. and the in
ference is that Tate couldn't make it
out; and the consequence was, that the
people did not hear the preaching that
evening" a mordI hdh bnOuIu never
write at all, unless he knows those for
whom he is writing are better scholars
than himself, and woman ditto. Now
if you comply with the contract as
above, l will perhaps write you again
and say something about our sharp
young lawyers in this vicinity and their
management of trials before Magistrates

Concealed weapons.

When a peaceable community is sud
denly startled by the taking of human
life in some little momentary squabbIe
over a trivial matter-when, without
malice and only in a moment Of passion
some hot-headed young blood !" whips
out pistol and murders his neighbor,
We always hear much said about the evil
OF carrying deadly weapons, and for q
few days public sentiment condemns
and frOwns upon the cowardly habit.
But this mere impulse soon passes away.
Young men again Ill their pockets with
loaded revolvers and their stomachs
with strong brandy, and go out into So
