TOTAL ABSTINENCE SAVING VINE TILL IT
RIPENS.

There is a curious story about some native
wines which are extensively advertised nova
days, and have only recently been put upon
the market. DR.. Undcrhill. the well-known
grape-grower of Croton Point, died in 1871.
Some OF his heirs entertained temperance
views Of such extreme kind. that they were
unwilling to allow the stock Of wines then On
hand to be sold or any more to be made.
The grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t Is only now that the other heirs
have succeeded in arranging for a settlement
of the estate and the sale of the wines on
band. Among these is a wine of the vintage
Of 1864, described as a "Sweet Union Port
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay moro
than any other European wine, and being
wholly unlike any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity. age and mcllowness are
remarkable, and both physicians and vine
fancers have q special interest in it as the
Oldest native wine now accessible in any con-
siderable quantity. The whole stock is in tho
house Of the Thurbers.-W. Y 7ti6anf,
Nov. 70, 1871.
The above speaks for itself. but we would
add That this is the pure juice of the grape,
neither d,Hggrd, HqHoyea nor 7oate,ed; that it
has been ripened and mcllowed by age. and
for medicinal or sacramental purposes 1t IS
unsurpassed. 1t can be obtained from most

The Republican Judicial Convention
for the nomination of Republican can
didates for Chancellor, Circuit Judge
and Attorney General, for the Third
Judicial Circuit, met at Knoxville last
Thursday, and made the following nomi-
nations: For Chancellor-W. B. Staley,
of Roane county; for Circuit Judge
S. A. Rogers, of Loudon; for Attorney
General-M. L. Mcconnell, of Blount.
The Tribune explains the unexpected re-
suit of the Convention thus: Judge
Houk put very tall feather in his cap
yesterday; and he has right to wear 1T.
When the days work was done he was
master of the field Logan lay prone
on the ground, Hall had gone down in
judicial death, and Robinson been tum-
bleds headlong into the ditch. Staley,
Rodgers and Mcconnell are the living
evidence of Houk's great victory By
one coup dc main he nominated his favor
ties for Chancellor, Circuit Judge and
Attorney General, thus effectually shelv-
ing three rival aspirants to Congress,
and, of course, securing their influence
I" in the sweet bye-and-bye." His was
the master-spirit of the occasion. First
dividing and paralyzi ng the heavy vote
of Knox county, he had little difficulty
in marshaling the votes of BlOunt, Roane,
Campbell, Anderson, London, and part
Of Union, just at the right times and in
the right places. The general opinion
seems to be that the days doings fore
shadow Judge Houk's nomination for
Congress. He certainly made tremen-
dous stride in that direction, yesterday"

HOW THE MONEY GOES.

A man named - Rogers was prose
cuted in the Circuit Court at Athens last
week on charge of stealing two BUSH
els of wheat, convicted and sentenced
to the penitentiaTy for one year. There
was no unnecessary delay on the part of
the Court, and yet Rogers and his two
bushels of stolen wheat cost the people
between eighty and Einety dollars. This
is only one in a thousand instances show
ing how costs are piled up by our pres
ent system of Furnishing petty offenders.
Athens Post. .e rrs
We have been during the past week
giving some attention to the business
which came before eur Circuit Court.
Some very grave cases have been dis
posed of; but the great bulk of the GRIM
inal business consisted Of petty misde-
meanors. We have been inquiring as
20 the costs of some of the cases, and it
is amazing. TOillustrate: The case OF
the State VS.. Elk. Moore, presentment
for carrying arms. The defendant was
presented for carrying broken single
barrel pistol several terms back. He
was arrested before the December term
and put in Jail. He was tried and con-
victed and fined SO last December.
Failing to give security, he went to Jail
under the wOrkhouse judgment. He
has been in Jail ever since. The cost
to the people of the county will be at
least 800. So of number of other
cases, petty matters that ought to be dis
posed of in thirty minutes by any JUS
tiee of the peace Yet under the pres
ent system they must be dignified by
trial In Court and waste of public
time. There is no way that our Courts
can remedy the matter, but the people
can and ought to remedy it through the
Legislature. This is matter Of greater
Importance to the people, in pecuniary
point OF view, than savagc's State debt
question.

What is the result of reducing the
circulation from $50 per capita to $14,
a reduction of almost three-fourths? For
the first six months of the year 1877, the
number of failures in the country was
A, 749, and the Indebtedness involved was
500, SOC, III, or over IS per cent, of the
entire volume of currency. During the
month of January, in the city of New
York alone, the amount lost by bankrupt
cies was over eight and half million of
dollars, as great sum as that lost from
the same cause in the entire country
during the year 1864. The agony of
bankruptcy has been multiplied 20 fold
since the accursed contraction policy
was inaugurated, and will continue un-
til the debtor class are completely wiped
out unless the Democracy of the West
and South get control of every depart
ment of government, and expand the
volume of currency to point sufficient
for the wants of trade.

Whether there shall be peace or war
in Europe, depends to-day more upon
the will of Austria than upon any other
contingency. England is prepared for
war, but cannot send out sufficient
force to cope with the present force of
the Gar which is already Injured to the
hardships of war and flushed with re-
cent victories. She has also great
rival has no great war fleet to combat,
neither has she great commercial fleet
whose capture would bring ruin and
distress to her people. With Austria as
an ally, the latter power could so ef-
fectuaIly threaten the flank and rear of
the Russian forces, as to cause the i'm
mediate evacuation of Turkish territory
and force the fight upon Russian soil.
The central figure in Europe to day is
Bismarck With his concurrence, and
that of the German empire, Austria
in whichever balance she may throw
her infiuence,-is capable of turning the
scale. Bismarck is ambitious beyond
doubt, but bis ambition Is more that
of the statesman than of the con-
queror, and, whatever is most likely to
inure to the benefit of Germany as a
nation, will determine his policy,
whether it shall ultimately benefit most
either England or Russia.
