REECHER.
HeIping the Prosecution and
Advocsting Hanging.

New York, z5.-Beecher, in his
Thanksgiving sermon, yesterday, said.
Out of the trial which now appears
Qauehter) 70 be going on ct Washington
If there should come better definition
of . nature which is responsible for .
wrong, it would be some compensation
for the difgust it now inspires. Some
outcome to show that meteorbred natures
are not outside OF moral laws is needed.
Such an outcome, determiuinR by sound
and legal authority, the limitasions of
human nature will satisfy US for the pre-
longation of trial which looks now
like eight between an imbecile
judge on one side OF the bench
and vsgrsnt fool on the other
(applause). 1t looks like sn idiotic court
trying to find the wicked insane. A
voice, CHATS so.) But We look on hop.
ing that out of this CESSATION child Of
hope will be born, that from 9 patience
mistimed snd patient brooding there will
come thelbirth of better times when those
sane enough 10 organize crimes and ac-
complish them will be considered sane
nough to be hanged Aspplsuse.) I am
not specially in faveS of hanging, but
If there ever was q case for it there is one
now. l am not specially predjudiced
against hanging if We only get the right
man to hang, but in our modern civil.
cation it is better to put man in
q hole where no one can see him, than to
hang him, yet the better way may not on
occasion be as good ss the worse way.
Hanging ought not to increase, and if
done at ell should be in absolute seclu
sion, with only one or two witnesses to
see that the law is regularly accom-
plished. It would cause more terror 10
the brutal classes to see a man move in
the dark, and come forth only for trial.
and then pass away with no tidinRs, or
sound of him.

The Scheme.

Chicago, 24-Special from New York
The recent purchase of the EUening Ezr-
press is thus explained by a gentleman
who has had some connection with the
Express establishment. 1t is part Of q
scheme to get control Of the Associsted
Press. 1t is known the great capitalists
and monepolists have bought three of
the seven papers in the association. It
is said the fourth will soon be gathered In.
Then the spectators will have it in their
power to control reports Of markets sent
all over the world by means of the as
socisted press. They also control other
main lines of telegraph, and the public
will be entirely deperdAnt on them for
news. There may be some force in this
statement It is said Jehn Kelly, just
before the election of the directors of the
Express, got some stock transferred
upon which money had been lent. The
matter was holly cont' sted in the courts.
and Kelly finally settled the thing by
buying the three shares of stock in cues
ton for $4,000. There are 1000 shares
and the capital stock is $3.50, 600. The
intention is 20 merge the Mail and Ex-

Wovv watches are Made

It will be apparent to any one, who
will examine SOLID GOLD WATCH, that
aside from the necessary thickness for
engraving and polishing, large proper
tion of the precious metal used, is need
ed only to stiffen and hold the engraved
portions in place, and supply the neces-
sary solidity and strength. The surplus
gold is actually needless so far as UTIIl-
ITY and beauty are concerned. In JAS.
BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH CA
SEES, this WASTE of precious metal is
overcome, and the SAME sOLIDITY AND
STRENGTH produced at from one-third
to One-half of the usual cost of solid
cases This process is of the NEST sim
pie nature, as follows a plate of nickle
composition metal, especially adapted
to the purpose, has two plates of SOLID
GOLD soldered one on each side. The
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers, and the result is strip of
heavy plated composition, from which
the cases, backs, centers, bezels, ETC.,
are cut and shaped by suitable dies and

sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds
of chasing, engraving and enameling /;

SHOOTING IN CLALBORNE.

a correspondent at Tazewell tells
of a serious and probably fatal diff
ficulty on Saturday evening, the
goth inst, in PoweIl's Valley, about
twelve miles west of Tazewell, be-
tween Jos. Bull, a drunken rowdy,
and 10. WEIGH, a bar-keeper. 1t
appears that said Bull went to
Welch's grocery Saturday morning,
armed while there he became in.
toxicated. In the evening a negro
came to the grocery on business;
as soon as he had darkened the
door, Bull commenced cursing him,
and finally ordered him to make
tracks, which the negro started to
do, but before he cleared the door
Bull commenced shooting at him
he discharged four shots from his
pistol at the negro, when Welch
thought to stop him and save the
negro, invited him to cease firing
and take another 'snort," when he
wheeled and discharged the other
two remaining shots at Welch, both
taking effect in his thigh. It is
thought by his physicians that the
wounds will prove fatal But the
dark-sl1in escaped unhurt.

THE MORRLSTOWN MALE HIGH
SCHOOL.

From the announcement made in
another column, 1t will be seen that
this institution opens next Monday.
From some cause over which the
principal, Prof. Sherwood, had no
control, a satisfactory announcement
as to who would be his associate
forthe coming year could not earlier
be made Prof. T. J. Davenport, who
has been selected for that position,
is a graduate of Emory and Henry
College, of the class of '78, and
comes with the highest testimonials
OF his fitness for the position he has
been selected to fill Notwithstand-
ing the disadvantage the institution
is placed under by this unfortunate
happening, we predict a successful
year for the school, and we do this
because we have confidence in our
people that they will go to work
zealously for its prosperity, not'stop-
ping to find fault with any small
error that may have been made,
but by every possible means to hold
up the hands and strengthen the eff
forts of the principals in bringing
about a success so desirable.

NADTSON ACADEMY

To the people contiguous and
especially to those of Granger coun-
ty we call attention to the announce
ment of Madison Academy, near
Rutledge, in to-day's GAZETTE.
Prof Davidson who has again taken
charge of the school is a gentleman
of acknowledged culture, of large
experience in pedagogism; of ripe
scholarship, in whom there is no
shadow Of shoddy in his manner of
instruction. Starting late as he
does, it will take the help and as
sistance Of the friends of the school
to bring up the present year to
what il should be in the number of
pupils in attendance. But we be-
ieve the people interested in the
success of the old Academy will not
allow any failure to occur.

HOME TALEHT.

What is familiar is not appreciat-
ed. No prophet is honored in his
own country; and the same is true
of others-of singers, merchants,
lawyers and especially workmen. Ii
a New York firm Of carriage build
ers had, after long cogitation, con-
trived a new species of buggy
light, strong and cheap-especially
adapted to our big rocks and deep
mud holes, the achievement would
be advertised Throughout the whole
country, voluble agents would in
dustriously descant upon its merits,
and the people would throng to the
depots TO see the first imported spe-
cimens. Messrs. Hull and Witt,
builders Of farm wagons, buggies,
ETC., Morristown, did all of this tn
out their fellow townsmen knowing
of their work. Few saw the buggy
built by them for Rev. James B.
Converse, of Blountville, and ship
ped to him last Friday. Although
built of the best material, both be-
low and above, in the most work
manlilze way, it is lower in price
than the ordinary pattern. Although
much stronger than the common
style it is lighter and runs easier. 1t
is lower, though well above the mud;
hard to upset; hard to break, easy to
mend; cannot be overloaded; as use
rul 70 vs...y a bag of grain to mill
as a sweetheart to party. We did
not understand the reverend and
estimahle gentleman for whom it
was DuiIu as Dragging on it as a pos
tive ching of beauty" but rather
inferred that he would bank heavi-
lyQnit as a jalc-y forever. " Messrs
Hull and Witt would do we'll to pa
tent their new style before it is cop
led and introducedinto general use.

ThHReal Cause.

1t cannot be denied that the season
thus far has been a remarkably healthy
one. This Is due partly to favorable
conditions, but more largely to the uni
versal use Of DR.. Harris Great Remedies.
The people are becoming accustomed to
having Harris Relief, Harris Pills and
Lytle's Elixir for diarrhma about the
house ready for use, and so a great deal
of sikness is prevented. The more gen.
orally these great remedies are used the
less will be the amount of sickness.

Z. ORFUL. RISE IN BUTTERMILK."


Dickering as to the price of any
table luxury he desires has not here
tofore been one Of the traits or ac-
complishments of the courteous and
gentlemanly master of transporta-
ton of the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia railroad, Maj. F. X.
Huger'; but what effect a recent ex-
perience he had in Cooke county
may have upon his table spread-out
in the future remains to be seen.
1t comes to US from good authority
that during his late visit of inspec-
ton to the work of his company on
the line of the Buncombe extension,
he sent his servant to a cabin near
his quarters to procure a gallon of
buttermilk as a part of his matutin-
al meal. The long absence of the
servant induced the Major to visit
the house himself where he found
the old woman and the servant dis
putting over the price. The old wo-
man vehemently contended that she
had already measured the milk, that
it had passed from her possession and
not silver less than one dollar and
fifty cents in legal tender money
would compensate her for it. Rather
than leave the question to a JUICY,
the Major paid the price demanded
and enjoys the fame Of swallowing
the most costly gallon ofagiiated lac
teal ever manufactured in Tennessee.

What a revolution this discovery
would produce in the pork trade,
and what an impetus to the culture
of cotton it would give, if it turns
out an undeniable fact Col. O. O..
Nelson, Of Huntsville, Ala, says he
has repeatedly used cotton seed oil
at his house, and finds it equal to the
best lard. A hotel keeper at Mem
phis publishes statement to the
same effect. It has been tried by
several citizens of Tuscumbia, Ala,
who say that they can find no dit
ference between the oil and lard as
an article for cooking. The best
thing about it, as most economical
house wives viii say, is the cost, that
being now not moro than one-half
the price of the pork extract.
