A True Lady.

Gail Hamilton says: Wildness is
thing which girls cannot afford.
Delicacy is thing which cannot be
lost or found. No art can restore
the grape its bloom. Familiarity,
without confidence, without regard,
is destructive to all that makes
woman exalting and ennobling. 1t
is the first duty Of woman to be
lady. Good breeding is good
sense. Bad manners in woman is
immortality. Awkardness may be
ineradicable. Bashfulness is consti-
tutional. Ignorance of etiquette is
the result of circumstances. All
can be condoned and not Danish men
or women from the amenities Of
their kind. But self-possessed, un
shrinking and aggressive coarseness
of deneauor may be reckoned as 8
States Prison otfense, and certainly
merits that mild form of restraint
called imprisonment for life. 1t is
shame for women to be lectured
on their manners. 1t is a bitter
shame they need it. Do not be
restrained. Do not have impulses
that need restraint. Do not wish to
dance with the Prince unsought;
feel differently. Be sure you confer
honor. Carry yourself SO loftily
that men will look up TO you for
reward, not at you in rebuke. The
natural sentiment Of man toward
woman is reverence. He loses q
large means Of grace when he is
obliged to account her a being to
be trained in, propriety. A mans
ideal is not wounded when q woman
fails in worthy wisdom; but in grace,
in fact, in sentiment, In delicacy, in
kindness, she would be found want
ing, he receives an inward hurt.

The snn-spot cycle Il An full &C
tion. The huge, blazing surface oi
the sun is dotted with spo,slin all
directions. They throng the solar
domain, sometimes appearing singly,
then in gronps, and thea in rows
A large spot surrounded by smaller
ones seems to be; the fayOrite form OF
manifestation. Some of them are
large enough to be seen with spy
glass, and some so small asi to require
a telescope of high power to bring
them into view. We can form little
idea of their immense size. The
whole territory of the United States
is smaller in dimensions than many
of the sun spots now visible, and
some of them are larger than our
whole globe. No astronomer has
ever discovered the mysterious law
that controls their appearance, or
the part they really play in the
affairs of the solar system. 1t is
we'll established, however, that they
occur in maxium force once in about
eleven years, that they are connected
with the meteorological condition of
the earth, that when they appear in
great numbers, as at present, sea
sons Of excessive heat follow in their
train, and they are usually attended
with grand displays OF northern.
lights. Professor Piazzi Smylh an
nounces the reappearance OF the
aurora in Scottish skies after an abb
sence of several years, and predicts
a season of excessive heat before
the summer begins. The cyclones
and tornadoes in the West seem to
give proof of unusual elemental dis
turbance. Under these cireum-
stances there is nothing to do but
to watch and wait. Ages of obser'
walton may enable the astronomer
of the future to nnravel the mystery
that surrounds the solar spot cycle,
but there is little probability that
the problem will be solved for many
to come. Intelligent OBJ
servers can take notes as we'll as
trained astronomers. There are
three phenomena to be especially
anticipated, the occurrence OF severe
storms, the approach of great heat
wave and the haming of aurora ban

 A GEM WORTH sic, 900. 900. The Berlin Borsen -Zeitung says that the Prussian capital has long contained jewel of quite fabulous value, the news of whose existence was first made known to the general public by the re- ports of the last session of the Polytechnic Society. This noble stone is sapphire, and is the property of one of the member of that learned body. It weighs e12s loth''--a little | more than six ounces. The jury of the Poly. technic Society on grounds stated in full at their discussion, have settled its value at the frightful sum of sixty four millions of marks. or three millons two hundred thousand pounds of English money. It need hardly be said that such a treasure is not likely to fId pur- chaser at such price. }fA. fs*7Ec@" '* It is contended by some of the adopts that the stone is not perfectly pure, 50 that its price may, perhaps be reduced; but it can never be so far lowered as to tempt the rich est collector in the world to give anything like | the sum which must be asked for it. In the year 1872 Berlin minerologist offered to go as far as 67, 500 marks, but in vain, as the I unique jewel had already been refused in 1860 | to German Prince who had offered far larger price. It's present possessor has placed i-his treasure in State custody for the, sake of his heir, as the Borsen Zeitung says though we imagine that it's future owner will not find it easy to reallze anything more solid than dis tlnction out of his very exceptional piece of property, All the experts who have scruti- l nized the sapphire agree that it is genuine corundum. The 'sappir" of the books of l Exodus and Ezekiel, like the stsapphiresn of Pliny, were probably our lapis-lazuli.

A STRIKING

The pr. sidential election of 1880
will be memorable in political his
tory for the extraordinary despera-
ton with which it was contested by
the Democratic managers. For years
the Democratic leaders have not
hesitated to resort to gigantic frauds,
SUCH as bollot-box stuffing, false
counting, ku-klux outrages, and ''ci-
pher dispatches The Maine fusion
this year, wherein the Democratic
party offered to give the Green
hackers the larger part of the cleo
toral vote, and did give the Green
hackers all the offices which the fu-
sion was abe to elect in the state,
was something unique and unpre-
cedented. But the perfect desper-
alton of the Democratic managers
has been shown by their abandoning
their own platform en- the tariff
question Just before the election, and
more especially by their resort to
absolutely criminal performances
as forgery and purgery. Devices as
low as this have, no doubt, been
used before in localities by the worst
grade of partisans; but this year
the Democratic national committee
has gone deliberately down to the
very bottom ofthe mud and corn
mitted itself, and bound those who
have been considered the great men
of the Democracy, to one OF the
most disIonorable and contempti-
BILE of crimes, in the hope that
possibly it might help them to sue
cess.
The.sRepublican party, on the con,
trary, has just reason to be proud OF
the conduct of its Canvass. 1t has
proved itself a party to which hon.
est men, good men, honorable men,
and decent men may belong with
satisfaction and self respect; where
as. Democrats of this sort must be
ashamed of their party, of its lea
ders, of its methods, and OF large
classes of their fellow Democrats.

JOHNsF: GRESHAM, esq.


John EULER Grisham, Esqr, Rep
resentatfye elect from the counties of
Washington and Unicoi, was born at
Buffalo Ridge, Washington County,
Oct. 31st, 1892. The only opportu-
mites offered him for getting an edu-
c%atior. were those Of the "old field
school, which he used to the best
advantage, and acquired a very fair
English education.
5 In 1910, after having attended a
grand Wing rally at Cumberland
Gap, he walked to Knoxville and
hired out at SO a month to carry
brick for the Court House, then
being built.
He afterwards taught school near
his old home at Buffalo Ridge, walk
ing. three miles morning and evening
to reach his work. His schools were
always very large. Sometimes num-
bering one- hundred pupils and never
less than forty-fye. He often fur
nished Books, paper and states free of
charge to those not. able to supply
themselves He also engaged in
farming and blacksmithing.
In politics, prior to the war. the
Esq. was 1 a decided Wing,
during the war he was an uncondit.
ioual Union nan and since the war
he has been a staunch Republican.
In May 1865, he was elected Coun'
| ty Court Clerk, and was reelected ii
1S66-1s70 and 1874, holding the Office
For thirteen years and four months
and making. one of the most popular
and efficient clerks the county evel
had. He has slso been twice elected
! Justice of the Peace,-ence before
the war and once since the VIZ. Will.
he was clerk.
At the election last week, the Esqr
received amajority OF 40 votes ovel
his competitor. Dir. l.. H. P. Lusk, al
e~x-federal soldier and a very popular
democrat. At Daffalo Ridge, his ole
home dist. let, his majority was So, hi
receiving 122 votes, the largest vot'
tv..r polled for'any Repul lican cal
didatp.
The Esq: is a strict member of thu
Christian Church, and his mora
character is without stain. He j.
brother of the late Col. Geo. Edgal
Gfisham, who so heroically gave NJ
his life here in 1873. during the fear
full cholera scurge Of that year.
