There is not another man in the world VINO
Obstinately puts necessary rest out OF his life,
MS does the American, and there il not another
who could better afford to take il. He Is bet
ter fed, clothed and housed than any OF his
brethren. Cheap as labor is in Europe and
half-starved rs are the aboring classes. they
all, even to the steady. plOdding German, at
ford their fete-days they take time to bring
singing and dancing and wholesome foolery
into the working week. In England and
France there is too large class almost wholly
unknown here. of cultured people contented
with small incomes, or retired tradesmen who
are satisfied that their little is enough, who
make no effort to add to 1t, but live eco
nOmlcaly and give up their lives TO society,
study, philanthropy or whatever whim en-
crosses them. With Ills these people would
spend the rest of their lives in hurried
struggle to gain big income.
OF course, it goes without saying that the
American farmer, merchant or professional
man, who is turning his back on the Summer
holiday 60 earn few dollars, Is not dong
it for himself, it ia for his children. But it
seems to us that this suicidal self-sacrifice
il carried too far A young fellow leaves col
lege hopeful, strong, but only half-deyeOped.
He has Just begun to guess at what he Is
capable of-just had a glimpse of boundless
paths of knowledge and achievement Some
day he will follow them; but in the mean
time he has his board to pay and clothes to
buy. He goes to work, falls IN love, marrles !;
then there Is his wlfe's board to pay. then the
children. 1t all follows with breathess haste;
1t seems to him they are scarcely born until
they are grown clothes, Yale, jewelry dancing
lessons, marriage portions for the girls follow.
He has not time to take his hand from the
pump which is to bring up money for it all.
Some day he looks up gray haired and Old
and thinks of the man he was meant to be
"a man who might have been. but never
was. Nobody knows the bitter failures, the
thwarted ambitions buried under the common
place ways Of our cold folks"
Now here is the remedy. Do not struggle to
give your children fortune, or to push them
into higher circle of society than your own.
Give them the best education you can, but
give yourself one also. Take a part of each
day, week and year to remember that you,
too, are man and not mere m0ney-maker.
Study some language or science. Leave the
farm or shop occasionally. Broaden your
mind by friction with men. Go to the cities,
to California, 10 Europe. OF course 1t will
cost money. Dress eat, furnish your house
more simply your sons and daughters will
be better men and women for such simplicity.
Bequeath to them high thoughts and noble
living in lieu Of money. They neither respect
nor love you more for performing an intel
lectual hari-kari on their behalf.

Success and the official statement affords
basis for a more accurate calculation. But It's

A correspondent in India gives picturesque
description elsewhere of the stately ceremonies
attending the laying of a cornerstone by the
Governor of the Presidency of Bombay. The
dresses of the native chiefs and the garlands
of flowers with which the guests and chiefs
were decorated must have made strange and
brilliant spectacle.

Scion Robinson's third article on Southern
Agriculture, printed elsewhere, deals with the
cultivation of rice, which can be made, with
sufficient capital and proper situation, a very
profitable crop. Some suggestions are added
as to the prospect for an improved class of
laborers in the new generation of blacks
This is declared not to DO encouraging.

Two hundred women of Boston, it seems,
have formally signifed their intention to take
advantage of the new law which cOnfers upon
them the right of suffrage in school matters,
and many more are expected to follow their
example One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the movement, as described by a
Boston correspondent, Is the intention of
many of the school teachers to vote. This
new right may be the means of Strengthening
the position of a most deserving class of
women who are not, as a rule, any too well
protected.

Much as the resumption of specie payments
has done to clear away the fogs that surround
the money question, much still remains to be
done in the work of popular enlightenment.
The men who opposed resumption are now
busy declaring that it cannot be maintained.
For the reason that many may be misled by
such sophistIies and decisions, and for the
cogent reason also that the opponents of
public honesty should not have the whole
debate to themselves, The TRIBUNE has
caused a series of articles to be prepared
which will discuss the plain truths OF finance,
with especial reference to resumption, ITS Wis
dom, necessity and permanence. The intro
ductOry article Of this series is printed on
another page.

FRIDAY, MARCH :, 1879

IT may not be generally known
that at one time a number Of man
ufa cturers from the Eastern States
sent an agent to Lexington, who
lifted notes of Henry Clay in the
Northern Bank of Kentucky,
amounting to sixty thousand dol
lars. This was a gift to Mr.. Clay
in consideration of his distinguished
services in behalf of a protective
tariff. They felt that his influence
had saved their manufacturing in
tercsts from ruin and themselves
from great loss. This large pres
ent was neyerregarded as a bride to
Mr.. Clay, and he never had the rep
utation being of bribe-taker. lie
lived the political idol of thousands
Of the best men in the Nation,
and his memory is held sacred
to this day. lie died with an I'M
suIlied character for honesty and
integrity, and lie is yet pointed to
as a model American statesman.
He gave utterance to the imma-t@l
declaration that he would rather be
right than President, and there are
few who doubt the sincerity of his
declaration. Before condemning
Governor Brownlow for corsenting
that his wife should accept a present
of five thousand dollars from FIVE
wealthy railroad men, in considera-
ton Of past services rendered by
him in securing the restoration of val
liable railroad property to its right
fL owners, itmay not be out ofrla,e
TO take into consideration the case
Of Mr.. Clay. As a general thing
we condemn the practice of gift
taking by public officials, but it
does not follow that such things
always imply corruption. In tie
case of Gov. BrownlOw we know t
did not.

THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879
THE
SuDscrfbe Tor a Good, Rsliable News
paper.

The DAILY CHRONICLE, and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE,
will be kept up during the year
1879 to their usual high standard.
By enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants of our
readers, we hope to merit contin-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, we commenced the pub
LEGATION of the CHRONICLE. In all
these years we lave battled for Re-
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate Of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare Of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
As newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our Geographic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit of
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor~
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
ly correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub-
lican journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WIG AND CHRONICLE.
In view Of the financial pressure
upon the country and the general
reduction of values, we have decided
to reduce the price Of the WEEKLQ
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times. In the future we will send
our weekly paper to subscribers on
the following.
