HAS TASTED THE CUP

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Jan. 10, 1878.
MY FRIEND The great poet thus
pictures the imaginative memory of the
beloved dead revisiting and abiding with
the living mourner:
''The idea of her life shall sweestly creep
Into thy study Of imagination;
And every lovely organ of her life
Shall come apparelled in more precious habit
More moving delicate, and full Of life,
Into thy eye and prospect Of thy soul,
Than when she lived indeed"
This passage, my dear John, has for
thirteen years been stored in my treas
ure-house of thoughts for, during that
length of time, / have mourned daugh-
ter who was to me the light of life, the
joy of my existence-until now I brood
upon her memory, as year by year fits
by, and dwell upon this passage until
''the idea Of her Eife;." that is all that re-
member of her-her traits of character,
her mental endowmSnts, her personal
form, features, grace of carriage, de.
affection, joyousness of heart, noblenesi
of ssul, all, all, everything which com
bined to make that being whom ! loved
and called my child, come back to me
More moving delicate and fun of life
| Than when she lived indeed.
You know, dear John. why it is tina
I pen these lines to you now. There i
fellowship in grief, brotherhood il
sorrow; and il in this parched desert O
life one has found a stream and quaffe
from it the waters of consolation, shoul
he not point his stricken brother TO tn
fountain God bless you, John, an
keep your memory green. Yours, ~.

d PLEASANT OCCASION.

Our lifelong friend, the revsred and |
venerable DR.. J. G. M. Ramsey, Histo-
rian of Tennessee, celebrated the 9Th of !
January,-(made historical by General |
Jackson in 1815)-by holding recep-
ton at his residence, Mecklenburgh-
Place, East Knoxville, of which the
Tribune says the "great number of call
ers-ladies and gentlemen, young and
old-attested, better than any other
demonstration could have done, the high
esteem in which the venerable couple
are held by the community in which
they have so long lived. The event
must have been as pleasant to them as
the celebration of their golden wedding
| which occurred six years ago, they hav-
| ing lived in conjugal happiness for fifty
six years. DR.. Ramsey, who is now in
his sd year, received his guests with
that eourtlinass of manner for which he
has ever been famed, and entered into
the discussion of historical topics sug-
gssted by the day, with all the enthusi-
asm of younger years, while Mrs. X.
with benignant countenance, radiant
| with the light of a softly beaming eye
and with scarce fuTrow to mark the
gentle touch. of Father Time, would
have offered an artist capital study for
/ a picture of post-meridian serenity. p"
Notwithstanding the severe loss he sus-
tanned in the wanton destruction of his
former dwelling house at the junction
of the Holston aud French Broad rivers,
during the war, in which many valuable
manuscripts and the historical relics of u
life time were forever destroyed, he has
still many rare and interesting souvenirs
of the earlier days of our section and
State. The Chronicle mentions among
others in his possession cas- an heir loom
of rare value, the cane used by his grand
father who fought against the Hessians
at the battle of Trenton. His grand
father was strict Presbyterian, as DR..
Ramsey also is. He has been Elder
in the Presbyterian Church longer, per
haps, than any man in the State. APP
propos to the occasion, he had hanging
on the walls of his room painting OF
, the battle CT New Orleans, executed il
1915 by an oficsr of the army, aud wh'
: was an eye witness of that exciting
event. He alse showed military Goa
worn by Major Hynds, afterwards Judg'
> Hynds, of cambridge. and made by tn
; late ex-President Johnson. 1t is in I
good state of preservation, and show
evidence of having been exceedingl,
. well made" We are gratified to learl
: that the Doctor and his aged wife are ir
the enjoyment of excellent health, ant
L with all who know them personally. AM
n thousands who do not, we sincerely hop
e that many peaceful years may yet b
d added to their already ripened lives.

Another Horrible Outrage in
Cooke County.

Another horrible crime has been en-
acted in Cooke county, the details OF
which are almost too repulsive and siek-
ening to lay before the public. One day
last week, Jim Franks, white man,
and worse than brute in human shape,
outraged the person of little girl, in a
most horrible manner, first druggiag her
with whisky and actually using knife
to accomplish his hellish designs, leav-
ing the girl in q mutilated and almost
diving condition. A brother of the girl
discovered the scoundrel in the act,
though being mere child himself could
do nothing, and Franks escaped to the
mountains, where he has as yet eluded
detection, though officers of the law are
after him. Franks has always been re
garded a desperate character. 1t is
hoped he will soon be brought to jus
tice. There is something singular in
the fact that this outrage was almost a
parallel case to that committed by Gus
Gritty, in the same county, last year
for which Griffylwas sentenced to be
hanged at the last term of the Circuit
| Court for that county.

Rev. DIR. T. J. Evans narrowly escap-
ed death at the fire Sunday morning. He
had entered the engine room for the
purpose of turning the water out OF the
steam boiler to prevent its explosion
and the loss of life that might ensue.
AS he turned from the boiler joise fell
from the story above striking the brim
of his hat and knocking it over his face.
A few inches nearer the boiler and he
would have been knocked down by the
beam and probably have persisted in the
flames. The fire was first observed by
the Doctor. whose residence is near the
mill, and who at the time of discovery
had left his bed to wait upon his sick
child. Besides arousing his neighbors
the Doctor put in most efficient work.

A REAARKABLR SURGICAL OP-
ERA TON

To the Editor Of the Aorristown GsEotts:s
I had the pleasure, few days since.
of meeting with Mr.. Henry Kaga, of
Douglas county, ILL.,, but now staying
with his aunt. Mrs. Funkhouser, at the
mouth of Chucky, in this county, and
IS Mr.. Kaga has undergone one OF the
most remarkable surgical operations of
which have ever heard, perhaps an ac-
count of it would be interesting TO your
readers. Mr.. K. had been suffering for
a wear or two with something like bron-
ehitia. or some affection of the throat,
and growing worse all the time, his life
was about 6espaired of when he sent for
DIR. -, a surgeon Of some celebrity
/ in Illinois, who came and examined him
/ and found that the only chance to save
his life was TO make an opening in his
throat and iuto the windpipe which he
did by cutting place just under the
large lump in the throat, say two inches
long and one wide, and in doing this q
small artery was cut which h&ti TO be
taken up, consuming . half hour, then
LAYING all open down to the windpipe,
the patient meantime suffering intense
pain, as he was too weak to bsiput un-
der the influence of opiates. In few
minutes more they were through the
windpipe and the blood spurted over the
physician. When asked how he felt, ht
made signs for a pencil and paper anC
wrote, II feel first rate. Mr.. K. tolc
me that so great was his relief that h'
could have wept for joy, his breathing
now being through the oritice in hi
throat. The Doctor next tried to ascer
tain the cause of the trouble, which III
soon discovered to be two tumors grow
ing in the windpipe. After repeated eft
forts to cut them out, he failed, and h
looked upon the failure as Providential
/ for it turned cut they were the organs o
speech, and had they been removed IN
patient would never have spoken again
The Doctor then introduced an aFtllcla
tube into the windpipe, through the orr
, fee that was cut, but this not Answering
a good purpose, subsequently MI haSi
made one himself of metal similar t
silver, which he put in. 1t is about th'
} size of a medium sized thimble, open a
, both ends, and through this he breathe
freely. The place is healed up aronn'
it; and now MIR. K. can converse freel.
and fluently, in whisper, by placing
the end of his finger on the tube III al
/ throat. More than a year has elapse
. since this operation, and he seems che el
. full and happy, and bids fair to live

A GREAT Loss
The MOrristOwn Steam Mill De-
strOyed by Fire

Saturday night, 18th inst, between
II aad IL o'clock, our citizens were sud
denly startled from their slumbers by
the cry of fire 70 and awoke to behold
a sight which saddened the hearts of all
and filed many with fear. The large
Touring mill owned by G. D. Merritt,
It. J. Russell and J. c. Roberts was
found to be in flames, and beyond the
control of human effort. The fire fiend
, had already coiled his destructive arms
around the building and it was soon lick
ed up by his fiery tongue.
The fire was first discover ed in the up
per story of the wooden part OF the mill.
Every effort that could be made by men
was made by the citizens to save the
flour, &C., in the building, but out OF
about four hundred barrels only about
sixty were rescued from the flames.
Then the effort was turned to save the
town, which then seemed doomed to de-
struction. The wind was blowing brisk
ly in a westernly direction, and at one
tine it was thought that the entire west
end of town, on Main street, would be
swept away. And had it not been fol
the cool and deliberate brains of Capt
H. Snow, Capt. j. II. Trent, Ben. Neil
son, Mortimer Thompson, Jay Brown
George Crouch, Julien G.. Reynolds
Maj. Jno. Murphey, and others, it Ger
tainIy would have been burned. Thes'
gentlemen climbed to the roofs of thu
adjacent buildings, amid smoke anC
flames, while others stood in water anC
mud and nobly fought back the advanc
ing enemy until at last he was conquer
ed About 2 o'clock the building fel
in and the fire was under control. The
the people began to realize the heav
loss-not only by the firm, but by tn
whole community. .s.
The origin of the fire is unknown
The loss in dollars and cents is estima
ed at SEC, 900. The proprietors had il
surance on stock only to the amount {
$4,000. t.a ae
This is the greatest calamity that hi
ever befalIen our people. It has throw
many out of employment who were d.
4 pendant on the mill for daily bread
q is to be hoped that the citizens of Il
town and county will contribute of the
means enough to help the gentlemen
rebuild at once. The firm have the 81
l cere sympathy of this community.

~ The New York San gives
list of the various defalcations which
have occurred in the United States
since the panic of 1878, in which are
included all sums OF $4,000 and
over which have been brought to the
light. As a commentary upon indi-
viduaI integrity it is not the most
cheerful reading. The total footing
is something over $3O,ooO,OoO, a
small portion OF which has however
been restored to the rightful owners,
by the bondsmen of the implicated
parties.

.T The recent enunciations OF
Henry Ward Beecher favoring the
doctrine Of limited punishment and
universal salvation. is evoking a
good deal Of criticism among the
diYines and in religious circles. And
what is more surprising still. quite
q number hitherto regarded as ortho-
dox, seem to agree wholly or par
TALLY with the Brooklyn pastor.
While the idea of eternal punish
ment may be. at variance with the
purposes and character Of God, be-
lief in it will never do much harm,
ifanv. No matter what our indi-
vidual opinions may be in regard
10 other states OF existence. and look
ing NO further than this life, we all
know that the terrors of the law
have a wholesome effect in restrain
ing man from the indulgence of the
evil in his nature. TO remove
these. or TO weaken them by the
sfatute OF limitation, we are afraid
would tend to make US all worse
rather than better.

~ William Z. Chandler, member
OF the National. Republican Execu-
tive Com mittee, and the principal
agent in the stealing Of the elector'
al vote of Florida for Hayes, has
written letter to the Republicans
of New Hampshire, boldly attacking
Hayes, and showing that he got in
to the Presidency by the aid OF
fraud. The letter is the political
sensation of the day, gathering its
Importance from the fact that the
writer was the principal agent of his
uncle, Zach Chandler, in stealing the
Presidency from Mr.. Tilden. who
was elected. When rogues fall out,
honest men got their dues.
