S. Marks a candidate for re election to
the Office he nov fills so ably, and to
which he was elected by a heavy ma
jority. That he will be reelected
there can be little doubt, but w shall
etill keep his name up as our candidate
for Governor. 1t nominated for Gov.
ernor he could resign as Chancellor
and obey the voice Of the people.
Tue, in some respects we regard the

Since our last to the Journal. we have
had one death-tlat Of j. l.. Starnes-an
account OF which has already appeared in
the journal.
IN our last we failed to say anything
about the marriage Of Mr.. j. ". ID. STAIN
per. In fact, when we heard that Daniel
was married we did not believe II, for we
thought he was rather young and entirely
too small to want to be on the married
list. We suppose, however, that Daniel
knows his own business, and we are sat-
istied that he will make Il good living, Tor
his father has taught him to be indus
trlOuS.
within the past few days Drs. Osborne
and Miller, from West Tennessee, have
visited our district in search of Il; location
to practice their profession, and we be-
lieye Dr.. Miller has rented two rooms
from John Powell. which will place him
in the center of IA large scope OF country
that is without Il physician. The commu-
nity are glad to have Il good physician in
rheir midst; but our section is 50 healthy
that we don't know whether u physician
can make II living by the prace of medi-
cine alone or not.
We notice that "R. StyX." of the 18th, in
last weeks paper, has something to say
about the good people of the Stl. We
will just say: That is all right, and we
will not complain If "StyX" does report
the news ofour district that has been over
looked; but. on the other hand. "Styx"
must not murmur if we slo Id happen to
report news from the Eth that is getting
stale. And just here, we will say that X.
II. Mcgee, formerly o. the Sth district. and
lately from Texas. has bought the Maxey
farm in the 18th district, near Estiil
Springs; and Mr.. Wiley Sublrtt, oftle
l5th, who went toTrXas abouttwo months
ago to make 4 fortune. has returned. and
will try the soil Of Franklin county again

JOHN ADKINS FAREWELL.

Poor drunkarGs,. poor ~drunkards, take
warning by me .
The fruits of transgression behold now l
see;
NV soul is tormcntcd. my body confined,
My friends and children left weeping be-
hind.
Much intoxication my ruin has been,
And my dear companion I've barbarously
slain.
In yonder's cold graveyard her body doth
lie,
And am confined, and must shortly die .
A solemn death-warning to d%runkards |
While my poor body lies cold in the dark
grave; ,
Remember John Adkins, his death and
reform,
Lest justice ovcrtakes you and sorrow
ONE on.
A whole life of sorrow can never atone
For that cruel murder that my hands
have done.
| am Justly CONFERENCE.-The right should
die
Therefore let all drunkards take warning
hereby.
Farewell dear children, wherever you be,
Though quite young and tender and dear
I leave you exposed in Natures vice
In which God is able poor orphans to
shield.
No mother to teach you, no father to
guide =,
Your tender affection from sins awful
tide;
No portion to shun you from hunger or
cold
Ny poor little orphans are cast upon the
world.
When sorrows Cypress you, and sickness
comes on.
You will cry for your mother, but oh, she
Is gone; A..
head
She bieI, groaued and languished, and
nov she is dead.
Nv heart swells with sorrow, my eyes
Soon, oh. my dear children, I'll bid you
adieu;
oh, may my kind neighbors your guar
dians prove.
And heaven, kind heaven. protect you
above.
Mv sonl to His pleasure | humbly submit
And with my lost burthen tall down a,
His feet.
tn plead for Ills mercy which flows from
above,
That prrdons poor d%runkards and crown
with love.

Dying.

NEW YORK, june t2-It is probable that
Mr. Bryant will die within twenty-four hours
His physicians last bulletin said that he was
exceedingly feeble, and that but for his won
derful vitality he could scarcely be expected
to live more than few hours. Mr.. Bryant
has been unconscious since Monday evening
and has taken no nOuriShment.
Among the callers last night were Gov.
Itlden, an Intimate personal friend Of Mr.
Bryant, Mr.. Henry Watterson, who called
with MIN, and the poet Stoddard.
Gene to His Rest.
New YORK, June 12.-William Cullen Bry-
ant died at 35 minutes past o'clock this
morning. He passed away peacefully and
uneonsciously
One of his physicians furnishes the follow
Ing statement: A few hours after the acci-
dent when he fell on the day OF the unveiling
OF the Mazzini statue two weeks ago, Mr.. Bry-
ant an IN his own house became unconscious.
From this cOmat0se state he rallied at times,
reviving sufficiently to engage in slight con-
Versation, though 1t Is uncertain how far he
was able to recognize his friends. His re-
marks referred only to diet and air until last
Sunday, when he was able to leave his bed
and hopes were entertained that he might re-
cover, but on that day paralysis Of the right
side fntervened and he began to fall. His illness
became more decided and he spoke with diff
Guilty, but gave no signs Of recognition or
Intelligence. He grew weaker and weaker,
and his vitality continued to diminish until
5 30 o'clock this morning, when, without O.
struggle or disturbance OF any sort, and sur
rounded by his family, he died while asleep.
From the outset Of his illness Drs. Gray
and Payne have entertained no hope OF his
recovery.
The flags on the city hall, postoffiee and
newspaper buildings are at half-mast In his
memory,
