Upon the occasion of the delivery of Il polit-

" of this congressional district, there were
seated upon the platform the various local can

Of the claims of the various candidates, MIR.

defense of his country Perhaps he may have
lost his limb upon the bloody battle field OF
Antietam perhaps in the terrible struggle OF
Gettysburg; perhaps when shot and shell were
doing their terrible work of destruction at
Chckan.auga; or it may be upon lookout
mountain, among the clouds" Here the
speaker turned to Jones' father Whose hearing
was not good, who, as is usual with such aged
persons, spoke in very loud tone Of voice,

SCHOOL EXHIBITION.

Mr.. EDITOR: On Friday evening, the
25th instant, your correspondent was present
at pleasant entertainment given by the pu-
pills of the Chestnut Academy, which is un-
der the control of Mr.. E. P. Castles as prin.
cipal, and is located about 81 miles north
west of Yorkvile. The pupils acquitted
themselves in a handsome manner, refecting
unusual credit on the training and skill of the
principal. Among those participating in the
entertainment were J. G. Dickson, D. G.
Clark, R. L. Wilkerson, E. A. Dickson, R.
L. Wallace and Masters Conner, Neel, Jack.
son and Craig, together with Misses 3. j.
Thomasson. Alice E. Jackson, NJ. S. Dickson,
Josephine Derrer, Laura Clark and Sue E.
Clinton. Each individual was well repaid
for attendance, and for long time will be
remembered some of the laughable scenes
enacted, and notably the burlesque of the
doctor, which was inimitably rendered by
Master Campbell Roberts. The patrons are
manifesting great interest in the success of
the school, and the principal is evidently em:
ploying his best efforts to attain the desired
end. MEMO.
