DEAR CHRONICLE: 1t is not nee
essary for me to say that your visits
are appreciated. That is a settled
fact; else we would not peruse your
weekly columns with so much pleas
ure. 1 do not propose to write much
through fear of the "waste basket"
but simply to give the state of af-
fairs in the bend" just now.
Well, the "crops," 1 believe, are
the general subjects of your cores
pOndents, but the crops do not at
present occupy as many of our
thoughts as the loss of ga pure
white rose from the rosebud garden
of girls" Miss Ada Edmondson
was one of our fairest flowers. But
alas, she has forsaken her childhood
home to wander through the paths
of life with one of Dickson cOunty's
most worthy citizens-Mr. Eddie
Nesbett.
They were happily united in the
holy bonds of matrim0ny on We'd
nesday morning, the 22d, by Rev.
J. B. West, At the domicile of the
bride. Attendants-Dr. B. w. Us
sery and Miss Ella Lowe; Mr.. West
Orgain, Miss Augusta Richardson;
Mr.. John Daily, Miss Emma Ed
mondson; Mr.. Julius Morris, Miss
Fannie Edmondson Mr.. Sterling
EdmOndsOn, Miss Gertrude Nesbett;
Mr.. Robt. EdmOndson, Miss Mary
Richardson; Mr.. Irvine Edmond
son, Miss Lizzie Ramey; Mr.. Ed.
Neblett, Miss Mary Caldwell.
They departed Immediately after
the ceremony for Dickson county,
there to dwell mid gurgling brooks
and vine-clad bluffs.
And now "may the gentle winds
of heaven ever fan their brows and
kind angels guard DER their daily
duties and midnight Dreams" is the
prayer of your correspondent,
LUDI PUELLA,

Wh0 is Blaine,

A Western exchange derisiNely
asks, "WhO is Baline, anyhow ?"
Now don't you know who Blaine
is? We can tell you very easily.
He is citizen by adoption of the
State of Maine, and enjoys the dis
tinction of wearing the Senatorial
toga.
He is q man who served the
United States as a drafted soldier
in the army through a substitute,
hired for him by the government
which substitute ran away from the
sanguinary scene of conflict.
He Is q man who, as the Speaker
of the House of Representatives,
used his influence to secure the Fort
Smith & Little Rock railroad subsi-
dy, receiving for his influence $40,
900 in bonds.
He is a man who got on his knees
to Mulligan and implored him to
deliver up his eliminating letters,
urging as a reason that his wife and
family would be left helpless if
these letters were to appear in evil
dence and the law allowed to take
its course with him.
He is a man who snatched evil
dences of his guilt from another
mans hands.
He is man who was sunstruck
on the eve of National Republican
Convention.
Ask us q harder one.

AFnithfnI PreacIaer.
We cut the following from the
Nashville American

/ NASHVILLE American
DIR. Baird took occasion, in his
/ sermon at the First Cumberland
! Presbyterian Church, Sunday morn
ing, to say that he had been spoken
to by one of the leading members OF
his Church upon the subject of tenn
perance, and had been advised by
him that If he persisted in preach
ing Temperance the attendance at
his church would begin TO decrease.
The Doctor said he was somewhat
surprised at the remark coming
from member of his congregation,
but that it could have no effect up
on him. He proposed, in the future
as in the past, to preach temperance,
and il made but little difference to
him whether he was sustained by
the congregation or not, if he did
right. He referred in severe terms
to what he termed thenon-action in
regard to gaming and drinking sa-
looms by the grand juries, criminal
court, the city council and mayor.
He said that, morally, Nashville
was gradually going to the bad.
DIR. Baird is preacher after our
own heart. He does not consume
his time or his intellect in demon
STATIONS of the origin of evil, or the
subtleties of Christian experience,
or the form of Church government
or the method of Christian baptism
but he looks out into the world
around him and lights on the evils
which are there threatening society.
Evil in the abstract is not his theme,
but evils in the concrete, palpable
for all to see who will look these
he grapples with and cries aloud to
his people; these are the evils which
are sapping the foundations of soci-
ETY. and corrupting and running our
sons and daughters these, then,
are the sins that concern us, these |
and not others; these are our enc
mics, fall upon these and extirpate
them.
No man ever dealt with evil in
this spirit without treading on some
body's toes and hearing of it, and
DIR. Baird has not been an excep-
ton. Some time ago another Nash
vile preacher, DR.. Hoyt, struck some
telling blows at reputation, and
-old men plainly that not to pay
your debts is breach of the eighth
whether a State or
IN individual is guilty of it, and a
;apient legislature pilloried him
with a set of resolutions, and now
DR.. B. treads on thetoes Ofdrunkards
md gamblers and of course some
body bowls.
Such preaching is not the fashion
but there are precedents
or it, among others Elijah the fish
ute and Jesus of Nazareth, both of
whom also trod on the toes of influ-
initial people, and both of them
aised a howl thereby.
Did we live in Nashvillew we would
70 to hear DIR. Baird occasionally.

rhe New Postal Regulation

An exchange says: A postal reg
ulation has been in force now for
two months, which we donot think
is we'll known among business men,
crit would be more generallyavaiied
of than weare informed by the post
office authorities is now the case.
We refer to the fact that statements,
bills, etc, can now be mailed in an
unsaaled envelope with one-cent
stamp. Thus the many monthly
statements which are made out by
wholesale dealers every month can
be mailed for one cent, but no writ
ing other than the legitimate bill
can be placed upon the statement.
No such words as "Please remit'
can be, neither can bill receipted
be sent. Some of our larger houses
in the season send out thousands of
these statements, and for the benefit
of all who may not be aware of this
extra facility we give this informa-
ton,

POrfraifnre.

We frequently visit McCormac',
gallary, and never without observ
ing some new development of his
beautiful art-some advance in
technical procedure, or some refine
ment, not before obtained, in ex-
preston or finish. One of the most
beautiful innovations, now on hand,
is a beautiful finish super-added to
life-size photographs, in which
colored pastiles are worked in over
the Photographic surface. Two Of
the fairest of our many beautiful
Clarksville girls are portrayed to
life in this style, as may be seen in
MeCormac's gallery. Then, in plain
photograph, we have a number of
finished portraits, which, for clear
ness of outline and Iife-like express
sion. and, above all, for mellow and
brilliant disposition of light and
shade, can seldom be equaIled and
scarcely surpassed at all. Among
these a striking portraiture, in
groupe, of Capt. Carnes and the
other officers of the Chickasaw
Guards. The apparent ease and
carelessness, but real artistic skill,
with which the positions of the
four gentlemen are varied and con-
trasted, yet combined so as to con-
stitute a well balanced groupe,
evinces something far beyond the
mere mechanical adroitness usually
attributed to the photographer, it |
evinces the mind and eye of an art
ist. We have only to add that |
the gallery will soon be enriched |
with another illustration of dra-
matte interest, representing the
Editor of the CHRONICLE at the
of editorial inspiration;
books and papers surround the
high priest of topographic mys-
teries, among which may be recog-
nized a copy of the Tobacco Leaf at
his feet. We hope he is not en-
gagged in demolishing one of the
of that valued journal, for
# he is-UOg Uictis!

Trees, Plants, etc., from the Com

The Chronicle Bindery.

This establishment has issued a
circular which is a model of orna-
mental printing and ruling. The
ornamental border is ruled in three
colors at one stl'oke of the machine;
it is really an interesting sight to
see it at work. Business men can
have Journals of all sorts, ledgers
and day-books, and all the multi
tude of subsidiary account books,
ruled and made up to order, and
the ladies can have their old maya
zines, music, etc., that are at present
iittering up their houses, bound up
into convenient and handsome vol
umes. The work is both cheap
and good. Call on w. p. Titus &
Co., Chronicle Office.

THE following is a special tele-
gram from Memphis, to the Nash
vile American of the 22d instant:
The great epidemic of 1879 is
about f1zzled out. Since yesterday
afternoon at o'clock not a single
death has occurred either in the city
or suburbs. 1t is true that there
are still a large number of people
sick with the fever, and many who
have returned to the city will yet
be stricken, but the fever has play
ed its part and must very soon give
place to the more congenial and
active pursuits of business. Already
the merchants are receiving goods
and making extensive preparations
to help keep in motion the grand
"business boom" that seemingly is
sweeping the country like prairie
fire.

A Welcome Guest.

Our editorial sanctum was illumin-
ed on Wednesday by what may be
called an angels visit, not only be-
cause such visits are, in these days,
alas! few and far between, but be-
cause they leave glow of light and
happiness behind them. The Rev.
J. b, West, once the principal OF
our Female Academy, visited this
place ON that day to perform the
matrimonial Ger smOny between
Mr.. J. f. Nesbett and Miss Ada
Edmondson, as is recorded in an.
other column, and, though his now
absorbing duties in Nashville lim-
tied him 10 a short stay, he spared
few minutes foR the above mention
ed welcome visit. Good friend,
would that we could see more of

try. See his list of first round of ap'

CAPT. j. CRUsMAN, GAINESVILLE
Tenn: We, the undersigned
colored citizens of GAINESVILLE, re.
specially request you to permit the
use of your name as candidate
for Mayor in the ensuing municipal
election.
We feel that the time has come,
when, in matters of public interest,
we should be guided by intelligence,
and in choosing men for public
Office, we should ask, ''Is he hon.
est? Is he capable?; and, as race
in some respects peculiarly circum-
stanced, we are justified in asking,
aeiU he, in the administration of
affairs, be unbiased by the mildew
of race prejudice? We believe
that, in so far as your jurisdiction
extends, you will administer to
all classes equal and exact justice,
and, in case you consent to become
a candidate, we pledge you our

WE find that the colored people
are following up the movement of
the white citizens In calling upon
Capt. Crusman to become a candi-
date for the mayoralty. 1t is cred
table to their judgement that they
appreciate the good qualities of that
gentleman, and we are well assured
that they will not be disappointed
in their expectation of "strict and
exact justice to all classes" should
the wish of the whole community
be realized by the election of Capt,
J. J. Crusman to the mayoralty. OF
that event there is no shadow of a
doubt, should he consent to accept
the office, and the universal desire
of all citizens can hardly fail to con-
strain his acceptance.
