What a Fly Did.

M James Howard, of Walker, married
an interesting young lady named Sy-
monds about year ago and they have
lived co-ily and happily together ever
since
BIT the other morning, at break fast, an
inquisitive and hungry fly dropped down
from his perch on the ceiling. and, stretch
ing his legs, began skirmishing around
for his breakfast. He crawled slowly
around Mr. Howard's coffee cup once or
twice, shifting the delicious aroma and
wondering how he could manage to get
a drink, when his foot slipped. he lost
his grip, and in a moment more was
1oundering around in the liquid His
struggles attracted the attention Of James
and he pulled him out and playfully
tossed him across the table The unfor-
tunate fly alighted in wet and bedrag-
gled condition on Mrs HIS plate She
indignantly grabbed him and flung him
back into her husband plate
James gazpd steadily at her a moment,
and seeing blood in her eye, deliberately
picked up the fly, and with hand tremb-
ling with Suppressed rage threw ii back
on her plate Then began a regular game
of -huttlrcock between the two, and that
fly flew back and forth until be was com

How TO Do IT.-An indoent gentleman
had free hold estate producing about
five hundred year. Becoming involved
in debt he sold half the estate, and let the
remainder to an industrious farmer for
twenty years. About the end of the term
the farmer called to pay his rent. and
asked the owner whether he would sell his
farm.
Twill you buy it 2" asked the owner, sur
prised.
"Yes, FIVE can agree about the price"
THAT is exceedingly strange" observed
the gentleman, pray tell me how it hap
pens that while could not live upon twice
as much land, for which paid no rent /;
you are regularly paying me two hundred
year for your farm, and are able in a few

To the Editor Of Tile -4Egis: find
published in your issue of the 18th Feb
ruary, that the Teachers Association of
the Third District incline to the opinion
that when Mr.. Browns wickedness is to be
expressed, it is correct English to say, sMr.
Brown looks bad" but not correct if i'll
health is to be meant.
Their conclusion is clearly erroncous.-
we may best get out of The muddle by CON
trasting the verb "look" with other verbs of
similar value:
This apple looks bad.
Mr.. Brown looks bad.
This apple looks nice.
Mr.. Brown looks nice.
In these sentences the verb clocks" is used
in the sense of "appears"
Mr.. Brown sings badly.
Mr.. Brown squints badly.
Mr.. Brown walks badly.
Mr.. Brown looks badly.
In the last sentence it is evidently the
speakers intention to show Mr. Browns
manner of using his voice, his legs and his
eyes.
When it is intended to convey the notion
that it is the appearance of the thing that
is meant, an adjective must be used when
the manner of the looking is meant, an adj
verb must be used.
Ii apples had eyes, there would arise
the same confusion in regard to their
looks" as now appears to exist respecting
Mr.. Browns "looks."
Besides, the word "bad," used in such
phrase as MIR. Brown looks bad" to mean
he is bad man, cannot be found in any
writer OF correct English. am very sure
that l have not in my reading met any such
example. l will add, have never heard
that or similar phrase in conversation ex-
cept as slang expression.
Very respectfully,
JOHN M. COOLEY.

Answers to Correspondents.

To the Editor Of The 1Agis:
In answer to your correspondent, in the
issue of The Kgis of the Sth, as to stalking
tomatoes, am decidedly of the opinion
that no advantage is to be derived in ordi-
nary seasons from stalking. Leaves or
straw spread under the vines is, in my
Judgment, more preferable. To stake on u
large scale would certainly cost more than
the advantage derived from it would justi-
fly.
AS to whether it will pay to extract
stumps depends entirely on the cost OF ex-
tracing. Mr.. w. F. Pannell, near Har-
ford Furnace, has stump extractor that he
claims will bring up full averaged size
ten cents per stump. At that price it un-
questionably pays to take them from fields
in cultivation.

To the Editor OF the Morristown Gazette:
In your last issue notice an article,
headed, "That 9Th Resolution" over the

which think does injustice to the COM
mittee on Resolutions.
have always regarded Colonel Lang
horne as being gentleman of fine nat
ural ability, as well as a fine literary and
legal scholar, but I never knew until
the appearance of his article that he was
possessed of those higher, extraordinary,
and supernatural powers, by which he
can look back of the words composing
a resolution, which he approves and
signs, to the motive which prompted ii,
which he disapproves and condemns.
AS long as the Colonel confines him.
self within the legitimate scope of his
natural ability, he makes few mistakes,
but when he spreads the wings of his
fancy and flies into the realms of the
unknown, and the unknowable, and at
tempts the superbHBaan task of reading
notices written on the tables of human
hearts, he is, at least 10 this instance,
wholly incorrect. The Resolution re-
fered to was not written In the interest
of any man ia our county who Is an as
pirant for Congressional honors, as the
Colonel alleges, but in the interest of
the great mass of the people, who
directly or indirectly produce all the
wealth, and bear all the burdens of the
country. The laboring classes of the
Democratic party have too much indie
pendence of thought about them to
tamely submit TO sustain the same rela-
tions to Democratic professionals that
the negro does to the Republican party,
that of mere tool, with barely inteli-
gence enough to vote, but too intoler-
ably ignorant to hold an Office of Inn
portance.
All judicial offices, as matter of ex-
pediency and right, should be filed by
lawyers. But legislative assemblies
should be composed of able men, rep
resenting all classes OF society, in pro-
portion to their numbers and interests
involved. Thisis what the Attn resolu-
ton meant, nothing less, nothing more.

We notice in the AnaarSean's report of
the proceedings of the late State Con-
vention that on the question of the pass
age of the resolution offered by Col. w.
A. Henderson, of Knox, endorsing the
wisdom and patriotism Of the admins
tration Of Gov. James d. Porter, Ham
blen county is recorded as voting 8 sfor
and against its adoption. This is a
mistake. The editor Of this paper cast
the eight votes to which Hamblen was
entitled on that occasion solid in favor
of the adoption of the resolution, and it
was not audibly objected to by any of
the delegates present from this county.
The AmerioGu reporter also errs in say
ing that Sullivan county did not vote for
or against the adoption of the resolution.
Sullivan county, through her delegate,
did vote, and voted against its adoption,
even taking the unnecessary trouble of
explaining why Il did 90.

ooNHERsAzIoNE Ar BRO WIS

MoRRIsTowE, TENN, Aug. IA 1878.
To the Editor OF the Morristown Gazette:
There is beauty in intelligence, and
many are its admirers. On the evening,
of August 18th, Judge j. L. T. Snee,l,
of Memphis, and family, who have been
visiting the Mineral Hill Springs for the
past month. and who were among the
the most pleasant guests at that very
delightful watering place, spent the
night in our quiet little city. In COM
pany with the Judge, who Is a most ex-
oellent aud very talented gentleman was
his estimahle and exceedingly pleasant
wife, and his two charming and ac-
complished nieccs, Miss Carrie Watkins
and Miss Cora Ashe. These two young
ladies spent the evening at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Jos. Brown whose doors
are always open to strangers, as well as
to the festive young of our own town,
and surely no one ever goes there with
out feeling that the family know just
how to make an evening pleasant to all.
These two young ladies made them
selves quite agreeable by their great
conversational powers, and affable man
ners. After we had been treated to
some of the good music which Miss
Lille Brown always makes for her
guests, Miss Ashe by request gave the
most intellectual feast we have for quito
~ lie had the pleasure of hearing. The
first recitation from this very intelligent
young lady, was the s'Bridal." Many
will be familiar with this excellent
piece of poetry written by Mrs. Hemans.
In this recital the young lady did JUS
tice to the anthoress, honor to herself
and gave unmistalkable qualification to
an appreciative company. The next was
piece written by our bright southern
authoress Miss Blunt, "What the Moon
shines on" There certainly is beauty
and Pathos in this piece, and in its ren-
dftion nothing was lost. Many are the
scenes that the moon shines on in our
own little town that have caused cur
mothers and sisters to weep for those
they love. In the language of the
Poetess "Moon we envy net your posi-
tion," for we would not see all that
you have seen. The last piece was
1.-THE Maniac,n which was well person
ated by the young lady, almost making
some TO weep. Each of these were OF
the highest order and charmingly rem
dered receiving well merited applause.
Miss Ashe can be a bright star in our
Southern sky and may shine with
great brilliancy in the literary world.
Ii we the young gentlemen and ladies,
would improve ourselves intellectually,
for surely we have talent in our ranks
would we only call il forth, the Moon
would not shine on SO many dark and
heart rending deeds.
Very respectfully,
JEAN OSWALD.
