Clerk and Treasurer.

THE Memphis Appeal says: sThe
venerable patriot, Hon. G. A. Hen
ry, descendant of Patrick Henry, at
the annual dinner of the bar of
GAINESVILLE on the fourth, made a
speech reviewing the events follow
ing upon independence, in the
course of which he said MY own
opinion is, the liberty of the people
cannot be preserved except by pre-
serving the rights, dignity and in
dependence of the States in the adj
ministration of their own domestic
concerns. This secures protection
at home to the people, and is the
only bulwarl1- against the usurpa-
ton of the general government
whenever it attempts to PROSTATE
the sovereignty of the State, and to
exercise powers not delegated to it
by the constitution, or to exercise
powers in a manner not therein pre-
scribed.n

CIarksviIIe Tobacco Market
OFFICE or THE CHRONICLE, /


Our offerings this week will be, we sup
pose, between 800 and COO hhds. The mar
ket has been very active, at fun prices for
all grades, in spite Of the excessive heat Of
the weather. The Louisville tobacco war
RACES more vehemently than ever, the last
move by the warehousemen being 10 pro-
hlbit any one buying who does not belong
To their trade organization; this excludes
from the market a body OF buyers who have
heretofore bought 50 per cent. of the receipts
of that market. This of course lets the few
buyers who belong to the organization
have their own way as TO prices, and they
are buying at prices below those bid by the
Independent buyers, which bids are refused.
Our warehousemen seem to desire to take
no advantage Of the trpphies in the Louis
wills market, and solicit eonsignments for
this market, though Louisville has her
agents all along the railroad to GAINESVILLE,
and sometimes in GAINESVILLE itself. II
such troubles existed here, Louisville run

our district. However, different markets

Yellow Fever-The Alarm From
Memphis.

On Wednesday, last, the people
of Memphis were terribly alarmed
by the occurrence of a death, that
of Francis Mulbrandon, from yell
low fever. His residence was dis
tant from the trade centre of the
city, on the corner of Desoto and
Pontotoc streets. His case was pro-
nounced yellow fever by the most
experienced physicians in the place,
but it wasjhoped that it might turn
out to be sporadic. On Thursday,
five other cases were reported, three
of which, however, were set aside
by the doctors as different diseases.
Down to Thursday night there had
been two deaths, that already men
toned, and son Of Judge Ray on
Thursday. On Thursday night we
telegraphed to DR.. Gus. Thornton,
chairman of the Board of Health at
Memphis, and an old friend and
pupil of ours, requesting him to tel
egraph us the next morning, giving
the exact truth in the matter. We
give an exact transcript of his an
swer received at little before 10 a. m.
on Friday morning yesterday.
g" Five cases of fever occurred, two /
deaths-tOo much sensation.
The trains from Memphis were |
much crowded and an extra special |
train was placed on the road on
Friday morning.
While awaiting further intelli-
gence we would give a word of ex-
PLANTATION about sporadic and cpl
demic diseases. In the first de-
spatch we got from Memphis it was
said the doctors at once pronounced
Mulhrandon's case sporadic, they
did nothing of the sort; there is no
difference, whatever, between spor-
adic and epidemic disease, except
that the one occurs in individuals
the other in multitudes and the ut
most any doctor could do was to
hope that the case might turn out
sporadic, the events of Thursday
diminish that hope considerably.

You plainly tell our hope has died.
Oh cruel grave, so dark, so deep
Though ever silence be your lot
Yield flowers, such as Hattie loved,
For to you we trust what God tsAketh not.
The sweet dawn of sunshine was spreading

When life seemed celestial the finger of death
Softly beckoned our Hattie away.
Softly the angels have lulled her to sleep,
Bitter the tears she has caused us to weep.
But heavier still than to us falls the blow
On the heart of him who loved her so.
So good, so true-sublimely grand,
Too pure to dwell upon this land.

THE COaPRomIsE BILL.
Preparations for the Voting.


On Monday an important meeting
was held in the city in view of the
approaching popular vote on the
compromise bill originating in the
recent session of the State Legisla-
ture for the purpose of settling the
public debt.
The notable point in the meeting
was that Judge Smith and Col. T.
L. Yancey, hitherto holding dia-
metrically opposite positions in ref
erence to the State debt, were both
announced 10 speak in favor of the
compromise measure now to be
voted upon.
The day selected was that of the
quarterly meeting of the County
Court, and the time the interval
between the morning and afternoon
session of that body. Thus the
meeting, if not very large one,
was a representative one in a very
high degree, as it comprised infiu-
entail gentlemen from every civil
district in the county, and thus the
speakers may be considered as adj
dressing, by a sort of human tele-
phonic arrangement, audiences all
over the county from State Line to
Sailors Rest.
DIR. ID. f. Wright being called to
the chair, the proceedings opened
at about IL p. NJ.
We will not attempt to analyze
the two leading speeches. Each
speaker Gas must be the case where
a compromise measure is advocatedD
was to a great extent occupied in
proving that his present position
was not inconsistent with his for
mer action in reference to the debt.
They both succeeded in showing,
whatever might be their individual
opinions of the present measure,
that this was the only settlement at
present feasible, and that, if it be
not now embraced, the unsettled
debt was bound to overhang the
political and commercial horizon Of
the State for years, with one out of
two alternative results in the end
the forcible settlement of the whole
debt or its unqualified reputation.
Both gentlemen denounced the lat
ter alternative as one not to be for
entertained.
At the conclusion of these two
speeches, which evidently produced
a profound impression on the hear
ers, Capt. Reynolds, our county
Representative, and Coils. House
and Bliley, our Representatives in
The United States Congress and
Senate, were successfully called
lpon and responded. All three of
hem were Enthusiastically in favor
If accepting the compromise, and
although having been occupied
ately with other matters, they did
lot make set speeches on the
finances of the State, yet they dwelt
orcibly upon the danger of leaving
his question unsettled. Col. Bailey
will, we are informed, speak upon
he subject at several points in the |
State during the present month.
After the speaking, on the motion |
If Judge LurtOn a committee of |
hree was appointed to select leading
llen TO act as a permanent commit
ee lis the several districts of the
state for the purpose of keeping the
question before the people and urg-
