GREENEvILLE, Tenn, May %.
Mr.. EDITOR During the past
two weeks Chancery Court has been
in session at this place, Hon. Ham,
| G. Smith, was on the bench, and OF
business he had much more than he
could dispose of during the two
weeks. of the causes tried nearly
all were appealed to the Supreme
1 Court. 1t is a great misfortune
that our Chancery business can not
be promptly disposed of. On our
docket there are nearly two huns
dred causes. During the two weeks
the Chancellor was only able to
reach about the S0th cause, and
two or three important causes were
passed over. We want some relief.
Our Chancellor has no time to give
US an extra term of Court, and
from Legislatures we expect moth
ing and are not disap-
pointed. Our Chancery Court
always brings together a number Of
gentlemen of the legal fraternity
who seldom went on other occasions.
Among these we noticed our fellow
townsman II. Ii. Ingersoll, now of
Knoxville, also Judge Barton, Hon.
VIM. Mcfarland, Maj. W. W.
Langhorn, Maj. F. w. Earnest and
a host of others.
1t is too soon to make predictions
as to who will be the next Republic
can candidate for Congress for this
district, but it is safe to say that
whoever he may be he will be elected.
1t is currently reported that Hon.
r. R. Butler will again go before
the convention. Judge Randolph |
will again be in the field, and a
great many persons believe that
Hon. A. Ii. Pettibone, although |
defeated in the last race, is the
proper man to be run again. Be-
sides these there are several others
who have not heretofore been prom
nent as aspirantS who may contest
the nomination. We say that who
ever the man may be he will be
elected. The people will vote next
line, and when the people vote the
Republicans have nothing to fear
n this district.
Our crop prospects in Greene
County may be considered good.
Within the next ten days all danger
o the wheat will be past. We ex-
oect to hear the usual reports about
lamage to the wheat crop immedi~
ltely before harvest, but hope that
he next ten days will bring NO Sc
'ious injury. We will have plenty
ot fruit, both apples and peaches,
md altogether the outlook is not at
III gloomy.
In the way of local news iteus
We can assure you and your readers
hat the strawberry festival given
y the young ladies of the Presby-
erian Church at Lanes Hall on
asst Thursday evening was a com
,lete success. In fact, our young
aides never undertake anything of
he kind without making it CONS
lete success. The festival was
ontinued on Friday night, and
be entertainments were the subject {
very favorable comment by all {
no attended. l.. x. e

THE

IL DAILY CHRONICLE, and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE,
viii 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-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not a 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
Iy correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
fearless, reliable Repub-
lean journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
Of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WIG AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
lpon the country and the general
reduction of values, we have decided
% reduce the price of the WEEKLY
WIG AND CHRONICLE to suit the
lines. In the future we will send

This important organ weighs but about three
pounds, and all the blood in living person (about

Purgative of the bowels, and if the Liver becomes
torpid it is separated from the blood, but car
RED through the veins to all parts of the system
and IN trying to escape through the pores of the
skin, causes it to turn yellow or a dirty brown
color. The stomach becomes diseased, and Dys-

off from one to two ounces of bile each time the

The travellers on the Metropolitan 'L' to whom
the faces Of the conductors ticket agents and gate
men have become familiar would not have been
little astonished at the gay spectacle presented by
these faithful and energetic servants of the public
last evening at the Ferrero Assembly Rooms.
1t was their first annual ball-an outgrowth
of marked feeling OF mutual respect and Kindness
which has sprung up between the uniformed en-
ployas of the road and which the officers of the conf

r. Garrison. Chief Engineer and Manager John Baird.
Secretary Body and other leading officers were pres

appearance of the men and their orderly
and gentlemanly bearing. Mr.. Hurst. agent
of the National Steamship line. aud Mr..
Chester Grswold came in company with President
Garrison, and the other officers were also accom-
panied by friends who took great interest in this
snatch brief moment Of social enjoyment from their
arduous labors. From the New York IL" Supernten-
dent Onderonk and several other were
present testify to the good feeling existing between
the employees OF the two lines. shortly after ten
oclock the dancing began, and, with short inter-
mission after midnight for supper was heartily en-
joyed by the IL" employees and their wives sisters
and swcethearts until late hour. II was generally
subject of remark how well these railroad men, in
their simple uniforms, with badges ana roset,e ties
nifed they appeared. 'These are men,. said one
visitor, .'who have the lives Of many thou
sands of people every dry in their hands, but
it is enough to look ut them to be satisfied that they
are men worthy of their important and responsible
trusts The ball was in every respect perfect sue
cess and its participants all declared that the pleas
ant attentions paid them by the officers of the
pany would only stimulate them in their exertons to
the travelling public faithfully and efcienty
and to work indefatigaby in looking after its COM
fort and safety.
