LOSS BY FIRE.
The houses of widows Margaret Me-
Daniels and Hannah Carson, over in
District No. 6, Hamblen county, were

There were four families living in the

tanning loss of nearly everything, as
the fire from the houses communicated
to the sheds and smoke house and even
to the fences. VIM. Cults, son-in-Jaw
of widow Nc Daniels, and VIM. Quinn,
son-in-law of widow Carson, were the
other sufferers.

THE
Subscribe Tor Good, Reliable News
paper.

IKE 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 a 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 have 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,
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
and every other
means through which reliable infor>
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
ontain selections made with special
eference to the home circle. We
viii continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
ublish a paper that may be taken
Without question within the sacred
recints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
lose attention, and be made entire
2 correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
sted in the publication of our in
ependent, fearless, reliable Repub-
can journal to come to our aid and
ssist in extending the circulation
the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
pom the country and the general
,duction of values, we have decided
, reduce the price of the WEEKLY
THIG AND CHRONICLE to suit the
mes. In the future we will send
II weekly paper to subscribers on
-e following.
