NEaynnrd's Candidacy for Con-


Cincinnati Commercial Washington Special
A recent paragraph in these dis
patches stating that it was reported
that Horace Maynard intends to resign
the Turkish mission and return to
Tennessee in time to run for congress
next year, has been widely copied in
Tennessee and met several denials.
Nevertheless, the authority for the
statement is good. But it will not be
as smooth sailing for Maynard as some
of his friends anticipate. Judge Houk,
the present member from the second
district, does not propose to quietly
get out of the way for Maynard, or any
body else. He will stand for another
term, and will be the next candidate,
unless Maynard or some other aspirant
beats him in convention.
1t is known to many that Mr.. May
nard's present position is not entirely
agreeable to his tastes that he prefers
to be in congress, and that he has been
written to by Tennessee Republicans
10 come home aud re-enter Tennessee
politics, 1t is very probable hat he
will do so.

Gibson County Mirror, May 30:
The late rains have improved the
wheat so much that there will be three
times as much threshed this season as
was expected fifteen days ago.
Ripley News, May 80: Miss Matte
Parker, Of Memphis, is in Ripley, the
guest of Mrs. Williams. 1t is her in
tention, W learn, to spend the sum
mer in our town. We hope her stay
may be a pleasant one.
A farmer and bis wife, living in
Knox county, have been married six
teen years. In that time, and by
single annual installments they have
acquired a household Of fifteen chill
dren. All of which they attribute to
the glorious climate.
Union City Chronicle: Mr.. II. A.
Catron, Of this vicinity, showed us.
Wednesday, some of the finest heads
of wheat we have ever seen. He has
about forty acres, on which his neigh
bors think he will harvest at least
thirty bushels per acre.
Crockett County Seminal, May 30:
Wheat harvest will commence about
next Monday week. The wheat in
this county is rather thin on the
ground, but it is of fine quality, and
will yield a good average crop. Nj.
Brooks, who lives heal Maury City,
brought to our Office the other day a
head seven inches long, and he said
the whole field was just like it.
Ripley News: The reports from
the crops this week are very encourag-
ing. Corn and cotton which escaped
the cut-worms is looking well. The
wheat crop is lighter than was ex-
pected, but will be much better
than last season. The farmers are
anticipating a fair reward for their
labor as the indications point to a good
price for cotton. = y Fewer
people have been in town this week
than ever before within our rec%ollec-
ton during the first week Of Circuit
Court. The farmers are all busy
lighting the grass and weeds, and the
approach of the sheriff or constable
to the field where they are at work
causes them to take to the woods like
they were fleeing from a leper. They
don't fancy jury service just at this
time.
Ripley News II. Bun Carson. ESQ.
chairman of our County Court, re-
turned from Memphis Tuesday. He
informs us that the attorneys for the
county, Monday evening, fled in the
Federal Court an answer to the per-
emptory mandamus requiring our
magistrates to levy a tax to pay of
the judgments recovered against the
county by default on the railroad
bonds. The CASE was to have been
heard Wednesday, but up to the time
we 90 to press no intelligence as to the
decision, if any was rendered, has
come to hand. In the meantime, tn.

Of suspense, not knowing whether
