THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879.
Subscrfb i0r a Good, Reliable News
paper.

IL 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-
aation 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 a 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
~ 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 WEEKLQ
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times. In the fulure we will send
our weekly paper to subscribers on
the following.

RELIGIOUS MURDERERs.

The newspapers are doing grea
injury to the cause of religion, b,
publishing in detail the declaration
of convicted murderers, made from
the gallows, just before their necki
are being broken for the commits
sion of atrocious crimes. judging
by such demon strations, one would
naturally conclude that the surest
way to Heaven was by way of the
gallows, for about nine out of every
ten felons who suffer capital punish
ment, publicly declare that THEN
sins have been forgiven, and thai
they are going straight to Para
disc" Their faith appears serene
and their tate seems to be an en-
viable one. Good men, ministers OF
the Gospel and others, find in them
striking parallels with the thief
upon the cross. Under our ortho-
dox training, we find it difficult to
comprehend all these things. How
a man who believes in s hell
of endless duration can DELHI
erately administer poison
to the wife whom he has vowed be.
fore God to love and protect, and
then exercising saving faith turn
his monstrous crime into a near road
to the abode of "just men made
perfect is one of the things we dc
not understand. The last act of the
cowardly assassin whose life is to
pay the penalty for the murder Of
his unsuspecting victim, is not un'
frequently an exhortation to the
gaping bystanders to embrace the
religion which sustains and cheers
his soul in the trying hour. A ne
gro was hung some time ago in
Georgia, and from the galloWs
preached a sermon in which he ex-
horted the assembled multitude to
repent and be converted, SO that
they might meet him in Heaven.
Similar discourses are not uncom-
mon.
We would not rob these convicted
felons, monstrous as their crime;
may be, of any consolation they may
derive from the example of the THE
upon the cross, but if they are
as good as they pretend tC
be, they ought to have respect
enough for religion to KEEP
it to themselves, or if they do not,
they should be restrained from
making public their declarations
Orthodox preachers generally make
the road to Heaven to the very bes
men a rather difficult one, and it il
hard for the ordinary mind to un
derstand how it is made SO easy Col
the convicted murderer-for the
man who dies with the blood of hi;
brother upon his hands. In the
one case it is like the camel passing
through the eye of a needle and il
the other it is the felon going t.
Paradise, borne from the gallows OF
angels wings, or almost as Elijal
did, without dying. If it is a.
hard on the one hand as the minis
tiers sometimes tell us it is, and al
easy on the other as the history o.
the gallows would make it appear
the temptation would be strong fOl
those who want to make sure of tn,
better world to kill somebody o
poison his wife.
These things are only calculate
to bring religion into disrepute
With the effect upon the dying W
have nothing to do. We have GU
own notions of such things. But
is of the influence of such mocker,
of religion upon the living that W
speak. Let US have private execu
tions. Let ministers visit con
demned murderers in their cells an,
administer to them what consola

ELECTRO PnoToGRAPHY.- - Electricity
has now made conquest in the photo
grapher's field. After many trials, Il
company In London has succeeded in
obtaining the finest portraits by the elcc-
tric light. They are even said to be SUI
perior to many pictures taken by sunlight,
having some peculiar excellences Of their
own. In London, whele fog and dark
ness abound-olen transforming day to
night, and spelling the photographers
trado-the use OF tho electric light in this
manner becomes very important. But it
will prove also a great convenience in
every country, even under the bright
American skies, whore many persons can
not spare the time in daylight to sit for
their portraits. The use Of the now light
in photography makes the whole night
just as available for picture-taking as
high noon. just as the gasmen and their
scientific" allies told US that electricity
could not be practically and economically
employed in lighting streets and houses,
so the scoGers declared that the same
agent could never be substituted for the
actnic rays Of tho sun. Both subjects
have now been attained, ard we are won.

WOMAN IN CHINA.-The condition of
women in China is most pitiable; suffer
ing privation, contempt, all kinds Of
misery and degradation seize on her in
her cradle, and accompany her pitiessly
to her tomb. Her very birth is common
ly regarded as humiliation and dis
grace to the tumiy-an evident sign OF
the maledlction Of Heaven. If she Is
not Immediately suflocatcd she is looked
upon and treated as creature intrinsi-
cally despicable, and scarcely belonging
to the human race. This appears so in
trinsically despica bic a fact that Pan hou-
pan, celebrated, though woman, among
Chinese writers, ondeavors in her works
to humiliate her own sex by reminding
them constantly oftAe inferior rank they
occupy in the creation. "When Il son is
born," says she, she sleeps on bed, he
IS clothed with silk, and plays with
pearls; every enc attends to his princely
cries. But when Il girl is born she sleeps
on the ground, is meanly wrapped up in
cloth, plays with tile, and is incapa-
bic Of acting either virtuously or vicious
ly. She has nothing to think Of but pre-
pairing food, making wine, and not veX-
ing her parents" Even after marriage
her condition is not improved. Accord
ng to eXpressioHs Of an old Chinese wri-
ter, "the newly married wife should be a
shadow and an echo in tho house." She
has no right to take her meals with her
husband; nay, not even with her male
children; her duty is to se4vo them at
table, to stand by them in silence, help
them to drink, and light their pipes. She
must eat alone, and after they have done
and in a corner; her food is scanty and
coarse, and she would not dare to touch
even what is lett by her own sons. Il
may be thought that this does not well
agreo 18th The much talked of principles
of filial piely; but it must not be forgot
ten that in China woman counts for moth
ing; the law ignores her existence, or
notices her merely TO load her with let-
tors, to complete her sovitude, aud to
confirm her legal ;ncapacity. Polygany
is allowed; and the hcaitrcuding Jealous
lie. and quorrels that thence engue lead to
numerous suicides.

TEACHING School GIRLS THE GEoN-
ErHY OF DHrss.-G Geuuai CohuIn, in
an address before the indianapolis school
board, said: 1t is proposed to begin in
structi1n in cutting, sewing and fitting
dresses, in II schools, in which it is esti-
mated that 500 0pupiIs will receive it. 1t
is thought best to make it a part cf the
regular course rather than leave it toption-
al, since this Will enable the board to
witness fair test of the work. Its pro
posed to employ the special teacher Of
this system three months, at salary of
fifty dollars a month, to give instruction
to the pupils and to such teachers in the
school as may be able and willing to re-
ceiye it, 50 that in time sufficient mum
Der Of these teachers may impart the in
struction to the scholars, receiving a
slight additional compensation for SO do
ing. | believe this step in practical
educatlonthat, with inconsidorable ex.
pense, will develop into great usefulness.
The tendency Of our present system is to
take tho student away from practical
life, to beget tastes at war with useful
labor, to breed disgust of the patient
and practical drudgery to which the
most Of US have to submit, sooner or
later. After ali, true education is hut a
training for useful life, and the very
means we .ake, in part, thwarts our pur-
pose. Many girls grow up without n
practical knowledge OF tho elements Of
those employments they must pursue all
the days Of their lives, and if this plan,
now proposed, can in any degree open
the door to them, | will! be we'll satisfied. .
Many ofthose who 60 out from the high
er grades OF our schools, do 50 unable to
make or fit their own dresses, or even the
simplest article Of underwear. II We can
by this method impart a knowledge Of
these things, and beget a taste for them,
no one ought to complain. The system
proposed may not Se the best, and no one
suppuses is perfect, but the adoption
Of the principle will lead to new methods
of instruction.

DEAD AND ALIyE.-Sonutor Gordon
was very much shot at and hurt man
during the rebailon. a writer in the
Atlanta Constitution says he was wound
ed five times when fighting as a colonel
in the battle OF Shaipsburg. The fifth
ball, entering his check, brought him to
the ground, and as he began to recover
his senses this is the half dream and half
soIiloquy that he carried on ." have
been struck in the head with a six pound
solid shot. 1t has carried away my head.
On the left side there is a little piece Of
skull left. But the brain is gone entire

am thinking. How can man think
with his head shot eff And II i am
thinking, cannot be dead. And yet no
man can live after his head is shot off. l
may have consciousness while dead, but
not motion. III can lit my leg, then |
am alive. / will try that. Can /?
Yes, there 1t is-lilted up I'm all
