a case of genuine smallpox in town. 1t is 10

Miss Lulu Beardsley, who lately returned

be no mistake about the case being small -pox
Yesterday the yellow dag was displayed from
the premises, and every precauiion is to be
used to prevent the spread of the contagion.
We do not apprehend that the soourge will
become epidemic. Warm weather and small
pox do not go well together. 1t is well
enough to be cautious, but We do not fear Sc
rious consequences from the appearance at
this time, of small pox in our midst. The

alarmed We had here in February and
March, 1872, nearly one hundred cases.

Gen, Sherman's Order.
WASHINGTON, June


Gen. Howard having telegraphed to
Gen. Sherman that the dissatisfied In
dians number / 800 in all, and other
facts and particulars which have in
substance come from San Francisco ia
press kilograms, Gen. Sherman has
sent telegram to Gen. Mcdowell as
follows:
Your several dispatches received and
| trust that the first report of the dis.
aster to the two companies under
Captain Perry will prove incorrect, and
that the combination among the dis
satisfied Indians is not as extensive as
reported. Still we must meet the
danger and overcome it. be it what it
may. Gen. Howard is on the spot and
can socn ascertain the exact truth. You
can first support him by all the troops
available and call for reinforements
only after you have used all subject to
your command. The aggregate num-
Der of Indian scouts possible for your
division is 1S0; you can surely let How
ard have 100 by ordering Kanz to dis.
charge corresponding number.

FOREIGN DISPATCHES.


LONDON, June 90.
The Turkish force in Armenia,
though they make vigorous feigns of
resistance, are evidently retiring
towards Ezeroum and the Russians are
again advancing. This is considered
to indicate that the Russian siege Of
Kars is progressing fovorably, and that
the besieging force is expected soon to
be free to form concerted demonstra-
ton which must either destroy Mukhtar
Pasha's army or compel it to an equally
fatal retreat.

No War with Mexico.
WASHINGTON, June 20.
The renewed assertions of American
designs on Mexican territory are sensa-
tional and baseless, stimulated by ad-
venturers who hoee to create a public
sentiment favoring their schemes for OBJ
tanning Mexican mineral land. The
effort excites only contempt here and
should not deceive intellectual people
on the Pacific coast t-elsewhere it will
utterly fail.

Sunday School Congress.

The meeting of the Sunday
schools at the Methodist church was
we'll attended and the addresses to
the point, well delivered snd heart
lily appreciated-the singing too was
given with spirit and expression.
The speakers were the Rev. w. A.
Turner, Prof. Dinwiddie, the Rev.
w. A. BrOaddus and the Rev. DIR.
West. All were good and Prof.
Dinwiddie's exceptionally so. We
noticed that almost all the topics
discussed were mainly addressed to
the teachers and parents, DIR. West
being the only one of the speakers
who addressed himself mainly and
directly to the children.
The next meeting takes place at
the Baptist church on the 4th Sun
day of next month. Might we del
icately suggest that brevity is an
important element in the addresses
given in meetings of this class.

Tne Tennessee Press Assoelation.

1t is time to call the attention OF
our citizens to the fact that this as
ISOLATION met in Columbia last sum-
mer and that, at the close of its pro-
ceeding, Commodore H. M. Doak,
then of the GAINESVILLE Tobacco
Leaf, invited them to hold their an
nual meeting for 1877 at GAINESVILLE:
which invitation was unanimously
accepted.
Accordingly ON Thursday June
2lst., this goodly city will be made
glad with the presence Of the elite
of the editorial fraternity in council
assembled, bent on the discussion of
matters of high importance affecting
the interests and honor of the press;
ON the discussion, also of whatever
good things the well known hospi-
tality of GAINESVILLE may place be-
fore them, and in short prepared to
have good time generally. And
to do justice to them we know no
class of men better capable of enjoy
ing themselves, or of contributing
to the enjoyment of those who may
be associated with them, than our
brothers of the pen and scissors,
whose better acquaintance we hope
then to make.
Wewould say the to citizens gener-
ally, that wherever these reunions
have been held hitherto the mem
bers have received high cOnsidera-
ton and hospitable entertainment
from the communities whom they
have hOnored with their visits. We
know that no more need be said to
the GAINESVILLE people to incite them
to a noble emulation, and for the
present we will conclude with the
words of Hamlet, better applied to
the press of the present day than
to the players of Shakespeare time:
"Good my lord, will you see the players
well bestowed? Do you hear, let them be well
used; for they are the abstracts, and brief
chronicles, of the time after your death, you
were better have bad epitaph, than their
i'll report while you lived"

We trust that our readers will APP
preciate the handsome new type in
which our editorials are this week
clothed as with a raiment shaped
according to the newest spring fash
ions.
To our own eyes in reading the
proofs, we have found this a great
relief, and are encouraged to hope
that our editorial lucubrations will
be perused with more comfort and
greater satisfaction by our readers.
And, Oh, that our exchanges
would some of them go and do like
wise, for the close and confused
Typography of some of the very
best of them, are a sad trial to our
powers of vision. Few printers are
aware of the increased powers in
fused into an editorial by a clearness
and distinctness of type which en-
hances the ease and diminishes the
labor and discomfort of concentrated
study which all editors wish to be
devoted to their articles; we can
only beg that our readers gratitude
for the change may take the form of
an increased appreciation ofthe mat
ter of our editorials.
