The cotton crop is not as good as
farmers expected it would be in the

The probability grows stronger each
day that U. s. Grant will be the Re
publican candidate for President to
succeed the fraud who now occupies
the White House. He Is the mos,
available man in the party. But that
lie will be elected is very improbable
The people have had enough of Grant,
and they are quite right in believing
that il he should ever get into power
again he will hold on TO it even at the
point Of the bayonet. Gen. Bright
gives no false alarm IN this respect,
and he is correct in urging the Demo
cratic party to be united and prepared
to defeat the schemes of this Caesar Of
the 10Th century. No man who has
the good Of the country at heart will
fail TO vote with the Democratic party.
Its downfall means the downfall of
liberty ami the rights of the States.

To the Editor Of the Winchester Home
journal:
! notice a card published ia the
Fayetteville Express, from the pen OF
Co.. Csrrisan in regard to a telegram
signed by the Lincoln county dcIrgN-
ton, which reads as follows:
10 Hon. A. s. Marks, Winchester Tenn:
DEAR SlR:-You have been noml
mated on Democratic, Republican,
Reputation, anlirepudiaton, State
credit, hgh-'ax, low~'aX platform
Hope YOU can end II consistent with
your platform Of principles TO accept
the nomination. II you accept, it will
alike dsappont YOUR friends and cn"-
mics The only congratulations The
State credit men OF the good old hon
est Democracy Of Lincoln can ollcl
you is That they earnestly hope that
som lair-lninded Republican will hca'
you 80 OOO votes at least
Signed; j, W NEWMAN, and others.
would say that earnestly believe
Mr.. Newman to be the author Of the
shove; and if there was present at the
Maxwell House on the evening altcI
the nomination any Lincoln county
delegates, the reading Of the message
by Mr.. Newman failed TO meet theIl
appreciation or approval. When he
appeared before the audience in his
shirt sleeves, without collar OF Cravat
he stated that he had been requested
TO read message from the Lincoln
county delegation When he had fin
;shcd reading, the entire crowd Kissed
aim from the stand, thus showing then
contempt either for the man or mes
sage. must say that Mr., Newman
perhaps, thought that he had placed q
new feather in hia cap IA a pop gun
politician, but he is mistaken The
people up in these parts have come to
the conclusion TINT the 6cshy gentle
man from Lincoln added hut little tone
to the Convention.
