Hon. Jas. e. Bailey is states
man of broad and liberal views. lie

He has ever been an active supper
tar of the material interests of the
neanIe He is bold, straight
forward advocate of what he believes
to be the right, and will never be
swerved from the right by a popular
clamor in his own party or out OF It,
He knew he was right in denonne-
ing reputation and defending the
honor OF the state, and he did both
with an energy and ability in the
late canvass that proved of great
service to the good cause of main
tanning the public credit. Many
democrats professed to fear that MI
Bailey endangered his chances for 8
re election to the Senate by his out
spoken manner of dealing with the
state debt question, but be was bat

truly represent the people, and thei

A date from London, Nov

A date from London. Nov. Sd,
says: The Standard in its leading
editorial this morning on the Presi-
dental election in the United States,
says: The administration of Gen.
Garfield is not likely to differ ma,
terially in policy or conduct from
that of Mr.. Hayes. 1t is indeed
probable enough that the old Sena-
torial ring which was master of the
situation during Gen. Grants Sec
ond Presidency, and which strove
hard to carry the third term move
ment to a successful issue, will be-
come more powerful than it has been
of late, and will once more monopo-
lize and employ for his own pur-
poses the patronage of he Govern
ment and its executive influence.

The Washington Star of The lot

The Washington Star of the 10th
says that letter from Gen. Han
cock was received in that city by an
officer of the arm y who was on bis
staff. In the letter Gen. Hancock
says emphatically that he has no lot
or part in the agitation in regard to
throwing out the vote of New York
nor will he have any. He is oppos-
ed to the agitation, he says, and be-
lieves Gen, Garfield was elected and
should be inaugurated without any
fuss. Gen. Hancock has since de-
MED the authent lefty of this letter.
as the subject was Of too delicate a
nature for him to take any part in.

A barn, in the eastern end of Morris,
town, belonging to Postmaster Trent
and rented by Mr.. Frank Sullenbarger,
was destroyed by fire about eleven o.
clock, Monday morning. About 100
bushels of corn were consumed with the
building. Loss estimated at $780, No
satisfactory explanation as to the cause
of the fire nor any insurance on the pro-
perty or its contents. There are other
buildings in this vicinity, liable any day
to a similar fate, that the Knoxville Fire
Insurance Company would readily give
a policy on, and guarantee security from
loss by fire, if applied to. Make the APP
plication and secure policy at once.

As John B. Coyner, farmer residing
near Palestine, Ind, was watering nine
cows at a pump trough, recently, they
made stampede down the lane as fast
as their legs would carry them. The
cause of this sudden freak was a mystery
to the hired man, but it was not long
before he was let iute what appeared to
be the secret of the stampede. Sudden
ly, although the sky was clear and the
atmosphere still, a young cyclone, not
over twenty feet in breadth, darted
down from the sky, and, striking the
earth near the pump, twisted off five
large beech trees as though they were
weeds

ANOTHER SUGGESTION.

If Morristown will nov come to
the front she may place herself upon
the highway Of progress. Already
one Of the most promising towns in
East Tennessee, her merchants and
business men equal to any in the
country and having location strong.
iy conducive TO her growth and ex-
pansion, she is in a condition to
profit by the favorable circumstances
which now seem to favor her. IF
she will seize the opper unity now
offered of reaching the Cumberland
Gap by rail. her destiny is fixed.
She would, in such an event, be on
a Girect line Of one Of the grandest
thoroughfares OF the country, which
would quadruple her population in a
short tune. augment her commerce.
vastly and make her a distributing
point Of no common magnitude.
Much, very much, will depend upon
her own right arm in bringing
about such a result. She is her own
Herculese in this matter. Her own
citizens will have 10 put their shout,

the statistics of each state beng given in a nut
shell as it were. The vote Of each party for
president In 1872 is noted, followed by majority
and electoral vote. Then come the same figures
as to the latest election in the state for state
officers, next the legislature, and if a U. ).
senator Is TO be elected this winter such fact is
duly indicated. The result in each cOngres-
siOnal district is set forth, and in foot notes Il
digest of districts is given, which is OF no little
interest. Finally the population of the state in
1870 is shown, with the total vote for president
in 1872, and the ratio of thu vote to the popula-
ton two years before. This Is made the basis
of an estimate OF Il total vote OF each state this
being from the latest inform ,tion derived from
the census bureau. The figures throughout
were compiled, and the resul $ reached, by an
old and well known journalist, and are unqucs-
tiOnably correct. The little work is absolutely
without partisan.bias, and aside from its value
as u reference book, is an exceedingly elegant
and artistic thing, rejecting no little credit
upon the thOroughness in detail and rare taste
of its progenitors. 1t Is not on sale, but all
