Tho Shrlevalty.

A report has come to our ears which
does an unnecessary injury to Sheriff
Hall. Fair play is our motto, and so we
are impelled TO set him right, and we
write this without hts knowledge or con-
seut. II has been said that he will bolt
if he fails to get the nomination for the
shricvalty. He will not do 80. I: is our
opinion that lie will enter the con vcntion
strongly backed, and with the only argu-
ment which can be urged against him
that it will make his third term. This is
no argument at all. II man be good
good man for the position, let him have
the office as often as he Can get il. Let
any man enter the convention with all
the friends lie can carry, and then let him
abide by its decision. We feel certain
that Sheriff Hall will do this. lie Is q
popular man, good official, and will he
hard man to beat. Beat II you csn,
but don't use unfair means.

the interest bearing debt from 238l and q half

Monday night the members and friends
of the temperance cause met in regular
meeting at the Methodist church. Rev. J.
P. Walker opened the meeting with the
usual religious services; after which DR.. D.
J. Eewbern, President, took the Chair and
called the meeting to order.
Reports of committees being called, Geo.
w. Armistead, chairman of committee ap-
pointed to draft bylaws for the Associa-
ton, made his report, which was adopted,
with the exception of that part which called
the Association the Tennessee Christian
Temperance Union. Jesse Norment moved
that the word ''Christian" be stricken from
the name of the Association, and that the
Society be called the Tennessee Temperance
Union. Rev. J. P. Walker and Geo. w.
Armistead opposed dropping the word
christian" The motion being submitted
to the meeting, the word christian" was
ordered stricken out.
No other committees reported. A cali
was made on Tillcy Hardy to address the
meeting, whereupon he came forward, and
in a short, but very appropriate speech,
showed the evils of intemperance, and APP
pealed to his young friends to declare them
selves total temperance men for life. Mr..
Hardy is young man of decided worth.
He is setting a good example to his COM
rades. ANY young man of ordinary natural
ability, at this day, can win success in life
If he but apply himself and not yield to
the love of ease and seIf-indulOouce We
hope other young men may come to the
front in this temperance movement,
and use their speech and influence in
the interest of pure manly development.
Rev. J. p. Walker then addressed the
meeting in few able and convincing re-
marks. 1t being late, the meeting ad-
jqurned, with the benediction by Rev. Mr..
Walker. Next regular meeting, Monday
night.

Rev. Geo. NJ. Savage, an able and popular
Baptist minister of Jackson, preached at
the Baptist church last Saturday evening.
The congregation was very large, consider
ing the impromptu notice given the public.
Sabbath morning he preached again, and

His sermons are highly spoken of by all
who heard them. He is a most promising
young minister, and his relatives and friends
arc warranted in predicting for him large
usefulness as Christian minister.
