The Rural New Yorker says that yalu-
able grape vines, planted with great care,
are often left to take care Of themselves
at this season of the year-when they
need care most. For the first two years
good stout stake, say six feet long, is all
that is necessary for support. This
should be firmly set in the ground and
the vines kept tied to it. Should other
shoots start from the old wood, rub them
ofand keep lateral shoots pinched back
to one or two leaves. Remove all lnjuri-
Gus insects by hand, and dust with flour
Of sulphur should mildew appear.

For the Senate-Col. j. D. Stewart.

EDITORS CLARION: Seeing article in Sat
urday's Comet, suggesting Col. J. d. Stewart
for State Senator, propose to second the
motion" by calling attention to some facts in
his life not generally known. Haprjn,is, he is
not politician, demagogue. He has
never held nor sought office, nor courted pop
ularity for its own sake or for interest Yet
he has rendered important services, for which,
owing to his modesty perhaps, he has never
received credit, yet which deserve popular
recognition, in some acceptable manner. To
send him to the Senate would be a fitting tes-
timoniaI Of appreciation of his past services,
and would furnish a suitable field for the fur
ther exercise of his ability and willingness to
aid US 1t was he who originated and execu-
ted the idea OF enjoining the SOC, 900 appro-
priated by Ames' Legislature to operate the
negro militia, and thus nipped the enterprise
lust as CaldwelPs company about to march.
To do this Col Stewart filed a bill in Chancery
praying for the injunction, and gave bond for
ten thousand dollars. 1t required a special
act of a subsequent Legislature to relieve him.
1t is known to very few also that he was the
author Of the set of resolutions introduced by
Hon w p. Harris at a mass meeting of citi-
zens declaring that the organization known
the Loyal League was revolutionary, and dan
gerous to the interests of tire peace and welfare
of the people and OF the State. These resolutions
were adopted in varies parts OF the State;
agreements were gotten up and extensively
signed, refusing to employ in any capacity,
all who so combined, and it at once and COM
pletely disorganized and broke up that in
cubus, which was rapidly fastening upon the
vtals of the county. Col. Stewart has resided
here forty years; and all know him to be a
man of stricted integrity and unimpeachable
moral character, and veracity, well
public spiritest, able and most useful member
of society In all that time he has never en-
plOyed labor in any capacity from abroad,
preferring TO patronize his own people,
amongst whom he has a score of friends and
admirers and their admiration has been
greatly strengthened and intensified by the kind
and efficient manner in which he, gratuitous-
ly, dispensed the benefits OF the Howards in
our recent distress.
Let the Convention nominate Col. Stewart,
and let the people elect him. lie Is diiue to the
erjstence Of certain erls which oppress many Of our
people under the present status; and he Is both
able and willing to devise and execute meas
ures for their removal, as effectually as he dis
posed of the Loyal Leagues and the negro
militia ALPHA

The Importance of Sanitary LegisIa-
tion,-Extract from the address of
DIR. Evans, President of the State
Medical Association of Tennessee.

Surely, to prevent and arrest epidemic dis
eases, pestilence and plague, would be the
highest perfection OF science and the most glo-
rious achievement man could aspire to- But
ask our rulers and Lawmakers for an appropri-
alton to help to cleanse the Augean stables,
whose stencil is poisoning the pure air given
by God for man to breathe, and their hearts
grow hard, their purse strings grow rigid, and,
worse than all, their ignorance hides itself un-
der hypocritical mask which sa4s, all men
are born to die, and such matters SHOULD be
left TO the providence of God. This is not so in
other matters pertaining to the ordinary affairs
OF life Tor where dollars and cents and self-inter-
est Is concerned, there Is law enough-law how to
protect self and property law how to cheat, pro-
yided you are not caught at it The LAWYER
and We give them credit for being conservators
and preservators of law and order-will tell
and instruct you that an unsafe crossing In the
city or an insecure bridge, entailing accident
or injury, is just cause for suit for damages ac-
cording to the injury inflicted But for defec-
tive sewer, foul and undrained marsh or pond.
or fostering nuisance at your door, there is lit
tie or no provision made. Now, while this state
OF things continues we can only protest again and
again, and at last say, " God help and save the
commonwealth of Tennessee" But we do not
intend to blame or condemn the lawgivers and
authorities alone. 1t is the people, after all,
who put them in their official places and kept
them there, and 90 like master Hkelman.

made very fine shot after several Intellectual

Mr.. W. E. Dickson then stepped forward with
his .laminated steel" and made the second
best shot that was made Mr. l. A. McCas-

Then came our friend DIR. d. McCallum,
but as his cross" on his board was in
the wrong place he didn't win. Capt.

shoot at and made very fine shot, but did Mt
get the saddle. DIR. 5. Legett had picture OF

his fowling piece and made a good shot but
didn't get the saddle. A. G. Berry, Jr., was
next called, and made the third best short on
the list w w. Dampeer made an excellent
shot Gus" Dickson shot but no damage
done Tom Robinson perhaps hit his board

much danger behind, or on either side as there |
was in front OF him. Al,er he he'd stationed |
himself and got every hing To suit him-he |
fired, and if you could nave been near enough |
to have heard ii you would have thought that |
some steam engine had exploded. When he |
shot he fell, and some of the boys ran to pick |
him up but he had recovered sufficiently to |
remark Say boys, where is the saddle" |
'Hulang Brown was the next on the list, he !
stepped to the front like little man and fired |
but twas no use, he lost his fifty cents. Mr. |
