Still down. still ever down, from deep to
deep,
Into the outer darkness, till at last
The fiery gulf received them, and they
plunged
Beneath Gehenna's burning sulphurious
waves
In the abyss of ever-during Woe"
land the voice which spake
Those utterances quailed not, faltered not,
But when the fiery gulph was shut
the Judge was weeping-tears
OF grief and pity inexpressible.
And straightway we remembered who had
wept
Over Jerusalem, and is the same
Forever, as to-day and yesterday.
g And in full sympathy of grief the springs
Gushed forth within US And the angels
wept,
Till, STOPPING from his throne, with His
own hand,
He wiped the tears from every eye, and
said,
My Fathers will be done; His will is
And mine is yours: but mercy is His
delight,
And judgment is His strange and dreadful
work.
NOW, come with me
Ye blessed children of my Father, come;
And, ia the many mansions of His love,
Enjoy the BEAM of his unclouded smile"
But thank God we are still in time.
Our probation fingers yet. The glorious
Gospel still rings in our ears the glad mes
sage of Salvation. Mercy still holds the
thunders back, and points to
Calvary. The Holy Spirit yet woos US to
repent. A risen Saviour still intercedes
for US. With fearful faith, oh let US now
he scepter kiss, embrace Salvation now,
md anchor our hope to that within the |

THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879
THE
Subscrib tOr a Good, Reliable News
paper.

The DAILY CHRONICLE, ana
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,
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 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 paper that may be taken
question within the sacred
Drecints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
,lose attention, and be made entire
y correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
,sted in the publication of our in
fearless, reliable Repub
lean journal to come to our aid and
lssist in extending the circulation
# the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
Ipon the country and the general
eduction of values, we have decided
o reduce the price Of the WEEKLQ
MIG AND CHRONICLE to suit the
ines, In the future we will send

HELP THE PONCAS.
An Omaha Editors Appeal to the Public.

To the Editor of The N. Y. Tribune.
Sir: 1 see in an editorial clipped from
the Tribune, sent to me by a distinguish
ed army officer, that you see to the
very bottom of this Ponca habeas cor
pus case in making the inquiry, "What
is to become of the Poncas now?" The
facts are simply these: Three years ago
Standing Bear was worth several thou
sand dollars, which he hadmade at fifteen
years hard work at farming and stock
raising. He vas ordered one day to
bring all his property to the agency.
He obeyed the order; it took him three
days to transfer all his stock, farming
implements, grain, household furniture,
etc., from his farm to the agency.
Everything he had was taken from
him by force, except two wagons and
six or eight ponies. He has been held
a prisoner for two years, never having
committed any crime, and this spring,
after escaping from the Indian Terri
tory, he went to work planting and SOW
ing ON land allotted to him by the Om-
aha Indians. While engaged blowing
and sowing he was again arrested, and
has been held a prisoner until it is too
late to plant this season. Now he is
again liberated, homeless, landless,
penniless. with thirty people on his
hands, many of them sick, and all but
eight women and children; five or six
are orphan children, all of whose re-
latives died in the Indian Territory,
and whom he is caring for asa matter
of Christian charity. If he had his
land back he would o o be well fixed,
but this decision involves only questions
of personal liberty and not title to land.
l am informed by the very best legal
authority that an action car be in
stituted which will give him back his
land, which he never sold, and which
| is his by tine most sacred Of titles.
1 suppose you are well "a that
lawsuits cost money, and while the
counsel in this case, the most distin-
guished lawyers in the state, have gen.
| erously donated their services, yet by
the time l get it to the supreme court
of the United States, it will require all
| the money 1 can raise. To recover this
land belonging to the tribe will cost at
least 81, 900, which it will be necessary
to actually pay out. l write to ask
you if readers of the Tribune cannot
help me in this fight for the natural
| rights of man.
Yours truly,
i. H. TIBBLEs.

Just escaped the cyclone, but it did great
havoc in the neighborhoOd. A. Lee Sum-
nit among other houses destroyed was that
of X. l.. Harris, who with his wife and
two children were killed and two other
children injured. His house was lifted
into the centre Of the cyclone. carried 300
yards in the air and then dashed to pieces.
Scientists are sorely puzzled to account for
the phenomena, as all the bodies were
covered with thick blush sulpharous mud !,
the clothing was stripped off or torn to
shreds, shoes torn off, and the feet and
bodies burned and blackened fearfully
Horses, cattle and hogs were caught up on
the Harris place, carried long distances and
dropped bruised and crushed out of all
shape. Huge trees two and three feet in
diameter were twisted of. and in one in
stance it swept along the bed of q ravine and
lifted out of its narrow walls every stick of
timber and carried them away. The bed of
