OF such q precedent. There is

Chancellor Staley.
SEvIERvILLE, Oct. u, rs.

CEN IERN Lille, Oct. Il, 10.
Mr.. EDITOR: This gentleman
opened and held his first court as
Chancellor elect at this place during
last week. His dignifed and cour-
teous bearing on the bench secured
for him at once the highest es-
TEEN of the members of the bar,
and the marked ability with which
he disposed of legal questions,
gave every lawyer ample assurance
of his thorough qualification for the
arduous work before him.
In graphing with intricate ques-
tions of equity Chancellor Staley
evinced a power of analysis and
discrimination that marks him as a
man eminently qualified for the re-
sponsible position. His patient
and painstaking method of elimina-
ton will lead him to accurate con
illusions.
The people of this Chancery
Division may congratulate them
selves on having selected a man for
the position of Chancellor fitted in
an eminent degree for the dis
charge, successfully, of the heavy
responsibilities resting on him.

AN ELOQUENT REBUKE.

Hon. Jno. f. House, Democratic
candidate for Congress in the Nash
vile district, said a few days ago:
"I believe the contest of 1880 will be
one in which the two parties will di-
vide upon governmental policy. Sec
tional hatred will be eliminated from
the contest. So far as the South is
concerned, / am sure that such will
he the case. / can not, fellOw-citiZens,
find il in my heart to indulge in feel
ings Of malice toward the people of
the North. When L witness their
magnanimous and generous conduct
toward the Southern people, / feel
like pulling off my hat and standing
uncovered in their presence.
o! grander than the vic
tory OF the Appomatox is the
victory won by the people of the
North in their noble and generous
contributions to the stricken and suf-
fering South. Upon that faled field
the South surrendered her sword
within the shadow of the dark wing
of the pestilenCe, beside the new-made
graves of her heroic sons and daugh-
tiers, with bowed head and fearful
eyes, she extends her hand and sur
magnanimOus people of the North.
Gods own hand has brIdged the
bloody chasm let not the ambition Of
man seek to reopen the wounds or to
re-enkindle the emberS of sectional
strife"
Let the men Of small calibre who
have been attempting to create
prejudice against Maj. \. IL. Petit
bone because he happened to be
born in the North, hang their heads
in shame in the presence of such a
tribute to the Northern people. No
true friend of the South no brave
intelligent man; no honest man
who loves the true and hates the
false, will engage in so small a
business, unless he does it without
stopping to think. 1t is the last
desperate resort Of a jesuitical
demagogue, and calls for the scorn
and contempt Of thinking, honest
men. For the sake of Tennessee's
good name, We trust we will hear
no more of such miserable stuff.

The New York Times says Of tn

The New York Times says Of the
withdrawal of Hon. Lewis Tillman
from the race for Governor
"a curious illustration of the vio-
lent and stupid prejudice which still
exists in parts of the South against
those who upheld the Union against
the rebellion is afforded by the with
drawal of Lewis Tillman, ST., the
Greenback candidate for Governor of
Tennessee. Tillman's claims as a
financier are certainly not of the high
est order, but such as they are, the
Democrats of Tennessee would neither
listen to them nor allow him to plead
them, for the reason that he had been
a Union man during the war. They
raked up his record, published it far
and wide, wherever he went, tWitted
him with it in joint discussion, and
finally worried him into giving up the
contest.
He gives as his reason for doing
so, with a frankness not without a
touch of pathos, that he believes his
past Union and Republican record,
Of which he is proud, affords the
bourbon Democracy the opportunity
to iDjure the cause of the National
party in the State The spirit in
which the Democrats have acted in
this case in very short-sighted. What
can they possibly expect to gain by
keeping alive the animosities arising
out of the war? They have laid that
fault at the door of the Republicans
for long time, but how can they ex-
pect that the people of the North will
forget what is so constantly obrruded
upon their notice, and if the people of
the North can not forget, the disad-
vantage must be to the Democrats Of
the South. A little common sense
would 60 a great way in correcting
such eXcesses.p

THE Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage, of
Brooklyn, is creating a sensation
from his pulpit. A short time since,
in company with two police officers
and two other gentlemen, he visited
a number of the dens of infamy in
New York, and saw their opera
tions with his own eyes. Since
then he has been preaching about
them, and says some good things,
among them the following:
Butt have something to tell you
more astounding than that the houses
OF iniquity are supported by wealthy
people, when | tell you they are sup
ported by the heads Of families, fathers
and husbands, who with the awful
perjury upon them of broken mar
rage vows, and while many of them
keep their families ON niggardly pOr-
ton, with hardly enough to sustain
life, have their thousands for the dia-
monds and the wardrobe and equipage
of iniquity. In the name of high
heaven, / cry out against this popular
iniquity. Such men must be cast out
from social life and from business rela-
tions. If they will not reform, overs
board with them from all decent cir
Giles. / lift one half the burden of
maledietion from the unpitied head of
woman and huTl il upon the blasted

burning excOriation of society pursue

pices, while offending man goes Kid
gloved into respectable circles, invited

warded into political recognition, aud
all the doors of high life opening TO
the rap of his gOld-headed cane? If
you take one back, L demand that you
take both back if one must go down,
then let both go down. i think the
eternal perditiOn of all other sinners
will be heaven compared with
the punishment everlasting of that
man who, turning his back upon her
whom he swOre to protect, sup

his children, whose destiny his own
example may determine, goes forth to

GENERAL REMARKS-To- day has been clear
and pleasant. There is no perceptible improve
ment in business.
The ideas of sellers and buyers Of Cotton were
not in accord. and the most desirable grades not
being on the market the consequence was that
sales were limited to 26OO bales. the market
closing easy and barely steady.
In Flour there was but little done In whole
sale way. the business being almost wholly con-
fined to Job lots. Prices are unchanged. The
sales footed up 1916 bbls at prices ranging from
o. SIS to Sc SO, according to brands and quality
Corn is firm and in fair demand. the sales as
reported amounting to only 1900 sacks from 4sc
to soc y bushe.
As we have before stated the bulk Of the sup
ply of Pork in this market is held considerably
beyond the present views of purchasers and the
going rates. AS natural consequence the
stock and receipts are small and the offerings
are limited. and holders are firm. Buyers In
view of the state of the Pork market in Chicago
and other Western cities. seem to think that
Pork should go lower, and are not disposed to
buy at the present rates. This contrariety OF
opinion on the part of buyers and sellers re-
strcted the movement in Pork. limiting it to
immediate shipping requirements.
There was slightly firmer feeling In Bacon
on account Of the paucity of supply. though the
market was generally quiet.
There was some activity in the Sugar market
and prices were firm. The receipts amounted
to 900 hhds, with sales of 226 hhds.
The demand for Molasses was light, and
prices were weak. Receipts 161 bbls; sales 10:
bbls.
COTTON-The grades that were in request
to- day were scarce. and when found holders
were firm and unwilling to coincide with the
purchasers ideas respecting prices: conse-
duently the transact Ions were limited to 26O(
bales. The market closed barely steady.
The following is the official closing of the
