KEYS MANIFESTO.

Postmaster-General Key, in recent
letter addressed to the Southern people,
ia which he declares his belief in the
innocence of President Hayes. and ex-
presses fears, that the Potter investiga-
ton will be productive of evil results,
by Matchmaking the Government, has
attracted good deal of attention, and
ELECTED various shades of comment. The
following, which we clip from the New
York Sun, shows what some of the DEM
Ocratic Congressman from Tennessee
think Of it {:
WASHINGTON, May 29.-The Tennes-
see members are justly indignant at
Keys letter, and express themselves
quite freely on the subject. Mr.. House
says the boot was uplifted to kick him
out, and that he signed this letter, which
was prepared and made a subject of
Cabinet consideration, and that the al
tentative was presented to Key to sign
it or. to go. The Democrats of Tennes-
see do not look for proclamations in that
quarter.
OOhd Ii SatNA IL ID AiOS hCCCoSd-
~ to dignity the letter by any notice
whatever. 1t will fall still born. Key
amounts to nothing. He is not cOnsid-
cred a Democrat, and has no influence
in Tennessee in either party.
Mr.. Whitthorne said: "The only
sign of revolutionary tendency or of
Naturalization that have seen is the
God and Liberty proclamation of Post
master General Key"
Gen Dibrell said: 1--WE all regard it
as a direct attack upon us. II is great
piece of impertinence on the part of Mr..
Key to attempt to dictate to our friends
in Tennessee. 1t is an insult and an out
rage. 1t has killed him-nOt his party.
But we suspected something of this kind
from him when we heard the report that
he would have to leave the Cabinet. I
predicted then that he would do some
thing Of this kind and keep his place.
His letter simply urges the people to
send Republicans in our places, and was,
in my opinion, prepared for him to

We do not believe the half of what
we find floating out on the newspaper
wave. But there may be something in
the telegram from Washington announc-
ing that General David McKendre Key,
Postmaster General, of Hamilton coun-
ty, Tenn, has come to the front in Cab
met discussion. Wouldn't it be bad il
his worthIessness should be appre-
ciated by the administration and he ask
ed to get up and git. But that could
hardly occur. There's toe much same
ness in the whole great fraud, for any
grand moral revolution of that sort.

The Chronicle mentions the frightful
death, at New Market, on the night of
the third instant, of w. A. GreenIee, of
New Market. He left Knoxville ON the
evening of the third for New Market, on
the freight train. Nearing that village
it seems that he was afraid the train
would not stop to let him of, and in at
tempting to get off the caboose, he lost
his footing BY some means, and being
an old man, unaccustomed to riding on
trains, he met with his sad end. We
have several reports as to the extent of
his injuries, some saying his head was
severed from the body and terribly
mangled. Others that he did not die till
the next morning.

If there ever was a time when bust

keeping their business prominently be-
fore the public, they should do so when
trade begins to fail OFF and the dull sea-

they can better afford to advertise liber-

matrimony. The New York Graphic

Lehman, Taylor, Lubbock and Herbert

and certainly the accounts of savage
tribes show that the primitive man was
in the habit of lying in wait for the wo-
man whom he had selected as his bride,
of telling her to the ground with club,
and either alone, or with the assistance
of his '' best men," dragging her off in

There is nothing in the Pump line
that is as good for Cisterns and Wells
as the Bishops Water Elevator and Pu-
rifier. While il stirs the water better
than any other pump, it is constantly
carrying a volume of fresh air to the
bottom, where it is discharged and the
cups filed with cool water. It will pu-
rify the foulest cistern in ten days. Is
more easily operated than any Pump.
Cannot freeze in winter and has no stale
water standing in the buckets in sum-
mer. Has no pipes nor wesden tubes
standing in the water, the chain being
made of heavy galvanized sheet iron is

it to be the ne plus ultra of suckers, and
when they make change, as they will
