WOlaan's RugEedness.

"The mortality report of Detroit or any
other city in the country ought to prove the
deaths of ten females to one male" SAID q
Detroit physician the other day, when speak
ing Of the way women dress.
The best physicians advise warm clothing
when advising with big, rugged man and
men follow this advice and die OF lung
trouble. This day you will see men on the
streets with pulse warmers, heavy overcoats,
fur caps, woOlen underclothing, thick SOCKS,
etc, and ahead and behind them you will see
women almost in summer attire. Men are
brought up to look on women as frall, dell
cate creatures, and to be tenderly cared for,
and vet there are hundreds of them in every
town and city who can and do endure more
to the physical system than men dare attempt.
A woman will wear two-ounce bonnet 10
church or the opera and make no complaint.
A man goes out wearing a sealskin cap and
perbaps has his ears frostbitten. Thousands
of women wear Gotten stockings al winter
long, while mems toes are nipped through
warm wooden socks.
The great majority of women 40 not wear
woolen underClothing. AT least ninety men
ont of eyery hundred either wear red fannels
or mernos, and yet they seem to suffer more
than women. Men will wear double mttens
while a woman will put on kids and seem to
feel no cold. A mans beaver and oVercoat
will weigh as much as ali the garments put
On by a Woman in this weather, and yet he is
the one who complains of the chilly winds;
We believe that men are oftener afflicted
with sore throat, coughs, colds, bronchial and
lung disorders, and yet men wear chest-pro-
factors, take care of their throats, and know
the dangers of drafts. This being so, men
must either stop thinking OF the female sex
as the weaker vessel, or it must prove tilat
overcoats and flannels are unnecessary "

Once in a while a gentleman drops
into our office and tells us to stop his pa
per, saying as an excuse, 81 have more
reading matter now than | can manage;
l take several city papers, and besides,
times are hard" In our opinion the
gentleman who utters this sentiment
possesses very little discretion, and could
hardly be recommended as a representa-
tive citizen Nothing seems to us more
plain than that the institution that re-
bounds to the benefit of community
should be the first to receive the patron
age of the resident of that community.
We approve of a person subscribing for
a city paper when he can afford it, but
first of all, support your local paper. 1t
is the journal that builds up your cOun-
try and supports your home institutions
The city paper does not do this; it is
foreign to you as the city wherein it is
published. 1t may contain more reading
matter but your neighborhood is not
represented in its columns. But to all
sensible men the fact is patent and re-
quires no argument that you should
"help the man that helps you"

MATE.

Our contemporaries of Republican
procliVities are much disposed to
crow over the result of an election
recently held up in Maine. They
say Maine has gone Republican, and
as a refrain they cry " BarkSdale. :"
Well, it is a matter Of little concern
to US that both branches of the leg.
islature of that little State are Re-
publican. 1t is of equally little con-
Germ that the leg lslature Of that State
will surely elect Republican Gov
ernor. But, when it is remembered
that for more than twenty years that
State was very largely Republican,
and that now, Notwithstanding Mr..
Blaine's herculean efforts-notwith-
standing speakers from every where
went to Maine to aid in the cam
paign, and when it turns out that
the majority in that State is actually
against that party-it does seem to
us that our Republican friends have
cause of very grave approximations
for 1880. In that year there will not
be three tickets in the field. So that
unless Blaine and his friends can
carry more votes than they were able
to carry in the recent election, even
Maine will not be counted for the
Republicans in 1880.

THREE TICKETS IN NEW 70

THREE TICKETS IN NEW YORK.
The New York Democratic State
Convention met at Syracuse on the
10Th, and exploded on the 18th, the
Tammany delegation withdrawing.
The following regular ticket was
then nominated: For Governor
Lucius Robinson. For Lieut.. Gov
Clarkson n. Potter. For Secretary
of State-Allen C. Beach. For
Comptroller-Thos. w. Olcott. For
Attorney General-A. Schoonmak.
er, Jr. The Tammahy delegation
held an independent meeting on the
same evening, at which Gov. Robin
son was denounced as "the man
owned by the great trickster of Cy-
pher alley" and on motion Of Mr..
Dorsheimer, John Kelly was unani.
mously nominated as the Tammany
candidate for Governor. Our Re.
publican friends, much disposed to
grasp at straws, are pointing glee-
fully to this bolt of the Tammany
faction and nomination of John Kel-
ly as third candidate for Governor.
The truth is the Democracy OF New
York are thoroughly united as to
every thing except as to the election
of Lucius Robinson for Governor.
1t seems that he, during his admin
istration, has found some corruption
in office among Demo Gratis in New
York city. AS soon as it was found
it vas exposed, and the parties call
ed to account. This enraged John
Kelly and a few of his sort, and
hence the bolt. But it will not pro.
badly result in the loss of single
vote to the general ticket, and cam
not possibly, we think, overcome

of the series by parties outside of the
Faculty. subject: ''Man and His Health

audience. The lecturer agreeably dis
appointed his audience. While all con-
coded his excellence as physician and
scholar, they were not aware that he
possessed fine ability as a speaker or
lecturer His lecture was not only one
of scientific value, but also of rhetorical
beauty The Doctor promises several
other lectures during the scholastic year.

ROBBERY.
Two men, named Hex and Williams,
robbed Capt. Patterson's residence near
this place last week One of them had
been working for Capt p. for year or
two; the other is a Jail bird. Money was
the object. They were overtaken in
Kentucky by Sheriff Mays and brought
back to this place. After a hearing
they were committed to Jail to await
| the presence of Judge Rose. Alas! for
the neglect of child-life. Ignorance and
vice lie behind crimes of this character
How much better 10 foster educational
enterprises than vice. The neglect Of
the one encourages the other.
MURDER!
A woman by the name of Rhea, Gf
! l mistake not, was shot and killed last
| week near Sneedville, Hancock county.
! She was living with man who had run
/ OH MS WlI6 ana CnlluEen LOT INC pul-
pose of taking her to his bosom. Parties,
| calling themselves "Kuklux," and sup
posed to be in sympathy with the abused
wife and children, went to his house for
! the purpose of strengthening up" the
! false husband, and, in shooting at him
accidentally" killed the woman. She
only spoke twice after being shot.
CAUGHT.
A negro passed through this place this
morning, en- route for Kentucky, charg-
ed with horse-stealing. Parties pursued
him to this place, and were just ten
miles behind him. Messrs. Cawood and
Neil continued the chase and overlook
him near Bulls Gap. The darkey said
he was only going to Greeneville--did
not mean to keep the horse! This, in all
probability, is not his first crime. He
is about IS years OF age and sharp as a
tack. From the aIliDaus of his guards,
the probability is he will never have the
! opportunity to repeat his crime.

1t is said there are at this time nine
hundred tons of standard silver dollars
stored in the vaults of tho Treasury de-
partment at Washington. Last fall Mr..
Gilfillan, Treasurer, with desire to ex-
ecute the spirit as we'll as the letter of
the Silver law, began to pay interest on
the debt in silver. John Sherman stop
ped this plan, and since then silver has
been constantly accommodating in the
Treasury. Last month Mr.. Gilfillan be-
gan paying one-tenth of the current ex-
penses of the Government in silver dol
lars, and by this means 81 800, 900 of
them have been already placed in per
manent circulation. There has been,
however, an increase in the amount of
silver stored in the vaults during the
past month. On August /, $29, 151 ,801
in silver were stored in the vaults On
September / there were $50, 67S, 464 in
silver in possession Of the Government.
In Washington the silver dollars are be-
coming a favorite subsidiary coin, retail
dealers using them instead of the old 81
and SO notes.

THE STA TIE feast TENNESSEE

THE STAT OFEAST TENNESSEE.
Cheatham County PIaindeaIer.
It is but two or three months
since a number of journals of Mid
die and West Tennessee were very
much concerned at the suggestion of
a Knoxville paper that East Tennes-
see should be made separate State.
The cry then was, let her pay her
share of the State debt and we will
let her go. A proposition was sub
mitted for the settlement of the debt
AS liberal as any could hope for
aud which commended itselfin every
way to the people Of the State as
equally demanded as an act Of honor
and measure of policy. That pro-
position was submitted at the polls
on last Thursday to the people Of
Tennessee. And what was the re-
suit? The people of East Tennessee
came to the polls with a full sense
OF the Importance of the question
submitted to them, and by an over
whelming majority ratified the com.
promise. Bus where on that occa-
sion were the people of West and
Middle Tennessee who had in the
sublimity OF their virtue raised the
howl that East Tennessee--that
corner where the State Of Tennessee
had its birth, and which has added |
more than her quota to the glorious
history of the State--was attemp-
ting to escape from the payment of
her share of the State debt? They
went TO the polls under the false i'm
preston that if the 50-4 compromise
was rejected they would never have
to pay the debt at all. and under
this delusive belief. they rejected
the compromise, and declined to pay
the debt, the other half be.
ing released. If East Tennessee
should now demand a separation
which she might with good reason
io-what opposition could be offer

times, as well as elsewhere. We have
our rOmances, our accidents, our quar-
rels and our delights, as other people do
who dwell in cities and villages.

many days since, and what was remark
able, Mr.. Scruggs youngest daughter,
Mary venerable Miss who has not reach

also. The upshot of the whole matter
was, the Doctor was hieving himself

A susceptible young man was Tilted at
Charlotte, N. G. He went to a house
where the girl was spending the evening
with party of her own sex, and asked
to see her She refused him an inter-
view, and he could not even get into
the house. He declared that he did not
desire to live longer, and was going to
kill himself, then and there. The girls
came out on the dOOrsteps and said
they were ready to witness the suicide.
Then he drew a knife, made feint of
stabbing himself, fell on the grass,
writhed as though in death agony, and
screamed at the top Of his voice. BY
thus frightening the girls he might haYe
gone away with flying colors had they
not, as restorative, drenched him with
pals of ice water.
