A five-year old child left it's seat in the Bap-
fist church at Grand Rapids, Mich, walked
up to the pulpit and up the steps, and stood
beside DR.. Graves, the pastor who turned to-
ward the lad, saying: What do you want,
"A glass Of water" The pastor poured out a
glass Of water, the child drank it and left the
platform. The incident created considerable
merriment among the audience, which the
child in returning to his seat noticed, and
thinking the people we're amused at some
mistake of his, he made bow to the pastor,
and said, .'Thank you, sir, and went to his
seat, satisfied that he had not committed an
impropriety.

RoGERsvILLE, Tenn, Sept. q,
To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
In my last weeks letter, stated "that
as Mr.. Hacker had been prosecuting at
torney in most of the States cases to be
tried in this court, he was incompetent
to try them, and that the State had to
pay some other lawyer to do the work, I"
&C., &c. have since learned that was
in error in that respect, as the law pro-
vides that special judges pay shall be
deducted from the regular judges saIa-
ry. | take pleasure Ill making this cor
rection, not wishing to make any unjust
and detrimental impression on the mind
of any one against Mr.. Hacker, although
| didn't vote for him.
Taylor and Pettibone spoke here yes
terday, to large and attentive audience.
Mr.. Pettibone is, without doubt, the
abIest Republican speaker in East Ten
nessee, but Bob Taylor has already prov
ed his equal on the stump, and carries
the crowd with him as if by magnetism.
AS your regular correspondent, J. S.
w. was present yesterday taking notes,
1 will not attempt to give you any of the
speeches.
Henry Patton, Esq, our candidate for
Senator for the I'd Senatorial district,
was here, and seems to gain friends, as
if by magic, wherever he goes. 1t is
now conceded that he will make the race
without opposition from any Democrat,
which obviates the necessity of DEM
ocratic convention, and guarantees his
election.
Col. James White has announced him.
self as Democratic candidate to repre-
sent the county, but as there are other
aspirants, it is not definitely settled yet
who will make things hot for Uncle Ri
ley.
Thomas Ross, Esq, is a candidate yet,
of course; a "Green-backer" this time,
but he don't expect much of puff from

Il CARD.
TO THE EDITORS OF THE JONES
BORO ,JOTRNAE.

GENTLEMEN Having recently been
informed that it is reported that was
the author of matter, items or articles
which were published or furnished the
Jonesboro Herald and Tribune against the
Hon. John A. Mckinney during the late
judicial canvass in the first Circuit, and
being informed that said Information or
report is being circulated and reported
privately by Walter P. Brownlow, Edi
tor and Proprietor of said Herald and
Tribune, take this method of inform
ing the people, and especially the friends
of Hon. John A. Mckinney and more
especially w. P. Brownlow, that the
said report or statement is willful, ma
licious and deliberate falselOOd as is well
known by said w. P. Brownlow. am
also informed that said Brownlow sta
ted to Mr.. Fred Devault and also to Mr.
I. N. Babb, that he (Browlown) was in
possession of the original manuscripts
containing said matter, items or articles
in my hand writing. This statement is
as false as the others and I challenge Mr.
Brownlow to produce said manuscripts
in vindication of his allegation, to the
parties above named, any of Judge Nc
Kinney's friends acquainted with my
handwriting or myself. 1 am further
informed that DR.. G. Wheeler, of Jones
boro, has written to Judge Mckinney,
informing him that composed and fur
finished as he (Wheeler) was informed,
the article which appeared in the Jones'
boro Herald and Tribune, descriptive of
the Greeneville Convention. also deny
most emphatically, the truth of the in
formation furnished DIR. Wheeler and
challenge the production of the manu-
script or any proof whatever that such
document ever had any existence as
coming from me.
/ am further informed that W. P.
Brownlown stated to the said Fred De-
vault that had offered articles against
said Mckinney for publication in said
Herald and Tribune which he said Brown
low declined to publish on account of
their character. All of which state
ment is bare faced taLSeltOOd and chal-
1enge Mr.. Brownlow to produce the
manuscript or any other evidence of the
truth of the statement-to Judge Nc
Kinney or any of my friends who are
acquainted with my handwriting, or
myself. Very Respectfully,
ROBERT l.. TAYLOR.

NOT THAT SORT OF a DOCTOR

NOT THAT SORT OF a DOCTOR.
To the Editor of the Morrlstown Gazette:
noticed in Knoxville paper few
days since that DIR. Peck and others had
been appointed to preside at stock show
to be held soon at Knoxville. If this re-
fers to your correspondent, he most re-
spectfully declines the honor. In fact,
it would be impossible for him to be
there, for at the time of the stock show
the circus will be at Morristown-and
that is the only Kind of a stock show he
attends.
A short time since there was an assem-
bly, of eminent Presbyterian divines,
from many States, at Knoxville. l saw
in the newspapers that DR.. Peck was
elected to preside. l was not surprised
at this, knowing that l was eminently
qualified to preside over a body of
divines. 1 started Immediately for Knox
vile. At the depot | met drummer.
He represented the fullness, cheapness
and durability of the merchandise his
house offered to the country trade. Ra-
Their CURLY / explained the object of my
visit. He told me / was not the man. l
told him certainly was, that there was
no other DIR. Peck in Tennessee. He
said the gentleman selected was pious
man. / said no man could excel me in
that particular department, and referred
him to my friend Captain Jim Swagger-
ty as the only man who knew me well.
He said the DR.. Peck selected made
specially of treating cases of chronic
cussedness. l told him that | always
carried the only safe remedy for that
disease in my hip pocket. He said his
man never used powder and ball, but
preached to them. Then gave up.
\
ture the Devil if he was in my power.

the accounts are more favorable. At

u Hon. A. s. Marks, the Democratic
and DR.. EN-. Wight, the Republican
nominees for Governor had an ap.
pointment to address the citizens OF
Hamblen county at this place last
Saturday. In the absence of DIR.
Wight, Rev. w. P. Gillenwaters, OF
Hawkins county. took his place and
opened the discussion at little af-
ter e'clock, p. M. After explain
ing the cause Of DIR. Wight's absence.
he proceeded to say that the Repub
lican party had control of the Nation
and lis finances. and whatever it had
done be stood ready to defend. The
Democracy had had control of the
State for ten years. These two were
before the people now for trial. He
declined the discussion of National
issues. Attempting to get "the brush
out Of the way" be argued that the
idea of taxing u. s. bonds had no
reason in it. He said Judge Marks
was trying to ride into the Guberna-
torial chair on "hard times." He laid
down the broad proposition that we
are better of as people today than

ton He discussed the Democratic
platform as it has reference to the
issuance or bonds to insolvent rail
roads. He dealt much in figures and
made, many detached and reckless
charges. evidently aiming only to
keep up appearances.
Judge Marks came to the stand
with an apology for Gillenwa-
.ters.T Said he had thought be was
simply talking for talks sake when
he was making his rash statements
but he (Marks) had learned since he
had got to town that GilIenwaters
was a preacher-therefore he must
impute it to ignorance. He then
proceeded Co answer sundry ques-
tons asked by Gillenwaters, among
them what he was for paying on the
State debt. But synopsis Of Marks
speech cannot be given, It was all

The Supreme Court Saturday, as we
learn from the Chronicle, passed the death
sentence on Steve Griffey, the inhuman
brute, white demon of Cooke county,
who was convicted of rape on the per-
son of little girl. The details, as prov
ed on trial, are too brutal and revolving
to contemplate. Judge Freeman deliv-
cred the sentence, fixing the date for
Friday, October 20, when he will be
hanged at Newport, Cooke county. The
doomed mortal evinced no emotion dur
ing the ordeal, seemed entirely uncon-
cerned, declining to say anything for
himself before the death sentence was
pronounced.

In recent Washington letter our cor
respondent stated that an ex-Major Gen.
eral in the Confederate service had en-
listed as a private soldier in the regular
army, and there has been great deal OF
curiosity exhibited as to who the re-
duced General might be. 1t transpires
that the man is Major General Stockton,
who is graduate of West Point Mill
tary Academy, and went into the Con-
federate army reaching the rank named.
Upon his enlistment he was not sent to
the frontier with the ordinary recruits,
but was detailed for clerical duty at the
War Department.
