THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879
THE
Subscribe Tor a Good, Reliable 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 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
a 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 telegraphic 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 a 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 WING 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 WEEKLY
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times, In the future we will send
Dur weekly paper to subscribers on
he following.

ED. Prior
If the election returns of tomorrow
proclaiming the death of republican Off
cial aspiration in Wisconsin-the Irt-
buae to the contrary Notwithstanding,
does not crowd your columns please
give this place and let outsiders know
what we are doing in Maple Grove.
We are Just recovering from the effects
of the terrible strain inflicted upon Us
by the campaign now ended and find ON
looking around Us that our piowing Is
not done orr threshing not finished no
preparation for winter made, and the
snow is here,a deplorable fact surely and
one rot to be smoothed by the knowledge
that wheat has gone down s cents on the
bushel while we were being-eiection-
eered.
Mrs. Thos. Long met with quite
serious accident while driving home with
her husband from the store on Thursday
OF last week. 1t seems that on turning
corner the horse became frightened and
turning short threw both out fracturlnG
her collar bone and otherwise iniuring
her. He was more fortunate, escaping
with few slight scratches and bruises.
EIr. Patrick Long lost valuable colt
last week in very peculiar way. He
attempted to jump high picket fence
but succeeded only in getting up on 1t
and impaling himself there. He died
almost Immediately from the effects Of
the injury received.
The ball at Mr.. Thos. Mangin's on
Saturday night last was very enjoyable
affair. Mr.. Van Camp of Manitowoc
furnished the music for the Seventy-six
couples who were present for that was
the number of tickets sold. That at
least was the number of our ticket and
we know we felt awful blue when we
thought we stood only one-seventy-sixth
OF chance of winning the sewing ma
chine three ratified, and would willingly
have bartered ouF beauty for the luck OF
MIR. Patrick Cohen who carried it of.
For the benefit of Manitowoc Nimrods
of balky team fame and r. r. vocations
] would say that ducks on the rice beds
are thicker than bristies on porker and
that they could how kill five times the
number with pop guns that they did on
their last trip with breach leaders, in
fact one needs no article of warfare more
destructive than club and boat-butm
concealed holes in the latter if you
please.
