ny HEARr1s ACHING FOR THEE.

NY HEART Is. A CHING FOR THEE.
My heart is aching for thee, darling,
The davs are so silent and lone;
I can't brook the sigh
Nor tears in my eye,
For my heart is aching for thee,
Aching for thee.
The birds are singing to me, darling,
And changing their chirping TO moansi
CHIPPING they futter
Trying TO mutter
To poor heart aching for thee,
Aching for thee.
o the flowers are blooming less bright.
Since the days you left them with me;
Their beauty is fed,
To live with the dead,
While my heart is aching for thee,
Aching for thee.
Little ones prattle the same, darling,
And ponder about mothers knee;
They weep and they pray
For thee night and day,
With little hearts aching for thee,
Aching for thee.
The world is cruel and cold, darling,
And everything cherries to me,
While writing l sigh,
With tears in my eye;
For my poor hearts aching for thee,
Aching for thee.

circle should be provided with books

have the county paper on their table.
Other papers may contain more reading

treats of subjects that have local inter

A CONVICT RECAPTURED.
Knoxville Chronicle.


On the night of Nov. 5, 1877, Dick
Hord, white, convicted of completely in
the murder of the woman Martha West,
in Hawkins county, and sentenced to
the peniteatiary for twenty years, made
his escape at the car shed in this place,
while being held with a squad of con-
yfets, in charge of Jas. F. DOdson, wait
ing for the train TO be conveyed to Nash
vile to the penitentiary. Nothing has
been heard Of him since until yesterday
when he was brought to the city on the
noon train by Mr.. Arthur Arnold, of
Sullivan county, who captured him il
Scott county, Va, last Thursday night.
Arnold had him secured with a large
chain and paddock, and carried huge
pistol in his hand in case Of emergency.
Hord says that after making his escape
from the squad by slipping the hand
cuffs from his hands, it being very
dark and rainy night, he ran off piece
and secreted himself until the excite
ment had somewhat cooled down, when
he made direct for the neighborhood OF
his mothers home in Jackson county,
and has been thereabouts ever since,
keeping out of the way, of course, all
the while. When caught he was at
corn-shucking over in Scott county, and
was persuaded to go there and was be-
trayed as he says, by his uncle.

A Plea for Small Bills.

Cleveland to.l Herald.
We hope there is no truth in the
report that the Treasury is going to
make another attempt to retire the
81 and 81 bills, in order to make a
demand for the unpopular silver dol
lars. If the uses of these bills were
simply to pass from hand TO hand,
their withdrawal from circulation
would cause no other discomfort
than that occasioned by carrying
bulky silver coins, but they are ex-
tensively used in making small re-
mittances by mail, and especially in
forwarding subscription money to
newspapers. Many millions of dol
lars are annually received by news
paper publishers in 81 and 81 notes.
If these notes are retired, a serious
injury will be inflicted on the news
paper business, because an obstacle
thrown in the way of the easy and
safe transmission of subscriptions
will seriously affect the circulation
of weekly papers. The important
business of sending small articles of
merchandise by mail will also suffer,
and tue whole public will be pus to
needless annoyance and inconven-
fence. H EH o50

An Extraordinary Fish.

The most interesting discovery
has been made in the sea OF Tiberias
Of fish which incubates its young
in the cavities OF the mouth; aud.
what is more remarkable, it is the
male which performs this part Of the
family function. As soon as the fe-
male has deposited it's eggs in the
hollow of the sand, the male ap-
proaches and draws them into the
cavities of the mouth by the process
of aspiration. Here they are dis.
tributed between the leaves of the
gills; and in the midst Of the re-
spiratory organs the eggs rapidly
develop. distending the mouth of
the male fish in the most extraordin-
ary manner. Finally the young fish
es make their appearance, packed,
in the gills like so many herrings,
all with their heads directed toward
the opening. From this place OF
safety and retreat they run in and
out until they are large enough to
take care Of themselves. 1t is sa id
that as many as two hundred inai-
vidua!s are sometimes crowded into
the mouth and gills Of the male fish.

MEMPHIS. Tenn, Oct


MEMPHIS. Tenn, Oct. "a. '7s.
Dear Father and Mother:
This is the first day in months that
1 have been free from great anxiety
or danger. am at home alone with
my wife. Cold weather has come
and the great pestilence which has
swept 1000 OF the people of Mem
phis into the grave in the last ten
weeks, seems to have run its course.
We have ceased TO have any appre-
hension on that account. The city
is yet almost depopulated, but refu-
gees will begin to pour in by the
thousand in a few days. But alas !
how many familiar faces will be mis-
sed, and how many desolate homes
will no more be filed with their once
happy occupants. As q family, we
have been mercifully spared. though
the hand of aff1iction was laid heavi.
ly upon us. For an entire family of
six within the circle of death to es-
cape, seems almost a miracle. We
feel profoundly thankful to God for
sparing US to our children and
friends, and hope we may live better
lives for this terrible visitation. My
wife began to improve rapidly about
week ago, and now sits up half the
time. we hope soon to see her able
to go to the country and get away
from the scene of so much suffering
and horror. l had eight nurses for
myself alone. The first, a man from
Texas. stole everything he could get
hold of, including horse and bug
gy, aud made good his escape at the
end of two days. The next one,
also from Texas, got drunk, and was
driven off. The third one, a good
man from Arkansas, was stricken
with the fever and died raving mad
in room adjoining the room of my
wife after she was taken down. The
fourth one, a doctor from Kentucky,
under the excitement and strain
upon his nerves, took to strong
drink, became drunk, when we were
both helpless in bed. He was ar
rested. sent to Jail, and died of the
fever, at an Infrmary a few days
Some of the others turn
ed oat better. My wife's nurses
were much better. / mention these
things to give you a faint idea of
what We have passed through. The
suffering is indescIibable. Our house
is in a state great confusion from
top to bottom and cannot be regula-
ted soon. l hope you will give my
best regards and thanks and those
Of my wife to- Mr.. Zirkle and family.
and others who took such an inter
est in the unfortunate sufferers of
this city. We owe the world debt
of gratitude which can never be re.
paid. L hope never to hear of Sec
tional animosity again. There is
life and heroism and fraternity in
the old land yet. Enough to save
it, enough to counterbalance the
bad. 1 believe that good will come
of this all, and that the conduct of
those of US who remained here from
a sense of duty will cause the peo-
pie of The North and of the whole
country to feel that their sympa-
thies, their contributions and their
sacrifices of treasures and of valua-
BILE lives was not in vain !; not thrown
away upon an unworthy people.
Mutual respect will warm into love
and patriotism.
