Mr.. James w. Declert of Louis
vile, Ky, is visiting his uncle, Mr..
John K. Lawless, in this place.
Dan. Briscoe and John A. Brans-
comb have returned from a weeks
visit to Moores burg Springs. They
report a large crowd and much en-
ioyment at that retreat.
Mel. III. Dickson, Esq, a promis-
ing young member of the Knoxville
bar, was in our town last week and
was pleased to give his unqualified
appreciation of its great attractions.
Our old friend, Hon. J. @. A. Re
mine, of Greene county, and daugh-
ter, were guests of Hon. e. O. Tate
one day last week. The ex-senator
is still suffering from the injuries of
his recent fall in Jonesboro.
Judge John M. Carmack, of Mem
phis, who has been several weeks in
Hawkins county, and whose general
health has improved since his return
to this section, went to Warm
Springs, N, O., last Thursday.
Mrs. Senator L. @. c. Lamar, L.
@. G. Lamar, Jr., and wife, Miss Jen-
ME Lamar and Mrs. e. L. Mayes
and family, of Oxford, Miss, were
registered at the Cain House Thurs
day en- route to Warm Springs.
A very pleasant and intelligent
gentleman, is our estimate of Mr..
J. D. Matthews, of Thula, Greene
county, who gave us call last week.
His friendship and intelligence We're
demonstrated by paying for two cop
les Of the GAZETTE, and promising
20 send us more new ubscribers soon.
The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1881-07-27

Our friend of the JOnesbOrO Jour
nal writes sensibly against the prac-
tice Of carrying pistols What IS
applicable to Washington county is
equally SO to Hamilton county, and
to every county of the State We
call the attention of the officers of
the court soon to meet in this place
to this subject, and ask them to ri
gidly enforce the law against pistol
carrying The Journal says The
people of Washington county cannot
be too much impressed with the i'm
portance of suppressing the practice
prevalent among a class of young
men, of carrying concealed weapons.
Our statutes are perhaps sufficient
" severe, but there is too much lax
ity in enforcing them. It is the du-
ty of every good citizen to report
every case of pistol carrying that
comes under his observation. A PTS
toll in the hands of drunken fool
is the cause of nearly all the muir
ders that are shocking and disgrace
ing the country. As long as the
practice is tolerated there can be no

EAST TENNESSEE AS a GRO VINO
REGION

From the first settlement of our
section ofthe State it has been cul-
tivated, to a great extent, in crops
that have exhausted the soil. Corn
is the King Of crops with us. There
has been little iudgement exercised
in this respect The hills of East
Tennessee have furnished alluvial
soil all the way from here to New
Orleans. Her soil has enriched the
lands of hundreds Every freshet
in this part of the State has made
the waters turbid to the Gulf of
Mexico and it is owing to the order
of cultivation practiced by our peo-
pie that this state of affairs has SO
long existed. A change of crops
can be easily instituted, and saving
to the farmer made which can not
be financially estimated. Instead of
the crops that have been cultivated
for more than half century,
grasses of the various kinds SHOULD
be INTRODUCED, and laftla and hoeses,
Instead of hags raised. With this
change ofagricultural pursuits would
come period of prosperity that
would know no ebb. - n0r uiHe
