THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE
And Weekly Wing and Chronicle
for 1880.

for 1880.
During the coming Presidential
year, the DAILY CHRONICLE will
take an active part in the vigorous
discussions of all political issues
involved, and will, at the same
time, keep its readers fully posted
on all the important events of the
day. 1t will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the interests Of
that party above any personal aims
or privata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success.
In State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any Office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors of the State. 1t
will oppose the efforts Of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounce them and their infa~
NOUS schemes. rt sgs'g /
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made up from the issues Of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. 1t will con-
tain a choice selection of miscella.
neous matter each week, together
with editor ais, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
cluded. 1t will be the object of the
visitor into the families of tn.
country.
Its market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made as
nearly perfect and reliable as pos
sible. ..... .
The Agricultural columns Of the
WING AND CHRONICLE shall receive
close attention, and will be i'm
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical farmer
on topics of interest will be invited
The proprietors of these two ole
and we'll established journals will
spare no pains to keep up and ado
to their established reputation, and
are confident that they will make
them worth many times more thar
the subscription price charged.

The attempted fraud was bad enough.
The continued resistance to law, after
tue un animous decision ofthe Supreme
Court had been announced, viii have
its effect upon public opinion in every
State. If the Democratic party com
plains of fraud, at any time or any
where, its complaint will be met with
contempt and it's accusation will re-
coil upon itself. What business has a
party to complain which resorts to
methods 80 Infamous? The only plea
which democrats could set up in their
defense, in National election, is now
swept away by the torrent OF indigna-
ton which the outrage in Maine has
set in motion. If any Democrats have
hoped to invite sympathy as the vic
TINS, or support as the denouncers of
fraud, they may as we'll hide them
selves from public seorn., II would
be the cap sheaf of hypocrisy for men
to eomplain of any pretended fraud
elsewhere who had been guilty OF par
ticipating in, excusing, or silently
encouraging the naked and shameless
swindle attempted by the Democrats

THE ICE-CREAM FESTIVAL.

The ice-cream festival given by
the ladies' of the Presbyterian
Church, ut the Courthouse, last
Thursday night, was very well at
tended, considering the inclement
weather. The hall was very taste
fully decorated with evergreens and
flowers, and presented a beautiful
appearance. The tables we're ar
ranged beneath large evergreen
arches. and were we'll filed with
the finest and most tempting con-
fections. There were three refresh
ment tables, under the charge of
the following named ladies':
Ice-cream and Cake Table-Mrs.
Guedry, Miss Mamie Bradburn and
Miss Cora Smith.
Lemonade Table-Miss Fannie
Fisher.
Ice-Cream and Cake Table-Mrs
Randolph and Mrs. Kennedy.
"The Postofice," in charge of
Miss Josie Frederick aud Miss Rose
Sanders, was managed according to
the most approved fashion, and ap-
peared to be doing a lively business.
The festival a a complete sue
cess, and the ladies succeeded in
disposing of everything salable long
before the company dispersed. We
learn hat the receipts were about
$75.
After the festival came dancing,
and all present enjoyed themselves
to the fullest extent.

II CONCERT.

The grand vocal and Instruments
concert at the Courthouse, las
Tuesday night. for the benefit of tn,
Catholic Church, was doubtless tb,
finest entertainment of the kline
ever given in Covington. Soon af
ter the doors were opened the larr,
hall was filled SO that STANDING
room only could be obtained. The
performance commenced at half past
eaght o'clock, and was conducted
according to the following
PROGRAMME.

b. Good Night, Farewell" (bass chant

The excellent manner in which
both the music and singing were
rendered, justly merited and re-
ceised the plaudits of the large
audience. The ladies and gentle
men who kindly volunteered :heir
for the occasion were all
possessed with rio h voices and rare
musical talent. Master Peters, who
is not eleven years age, won the
Of the audience by his fine
performance on the violin.
The concert closed about half
past ten o'clock, and the interim be-
tween that time and the "small
hours" was pleasantly consumed in
dancing, refreshments, etc.
Much admiration was expressed
the beautiful manner in which
The hall was decorated.
The entertainment was given I'M
der the auspices of the ladies of the
Church, and we are happy
70 learn that it proved to be IL sue

other respects, the net receipts be-
