about her head to keep her ..frizzes''
from getting out of curl, she curled her
self close 10 the back of her berth and
went to sleep.

Knoxville Chronicle Rep.)

NANSE"J
One Of the duties of the Tennes-
sec Legislature at the extra session
to be called next winter, will be the
apportionment of the State into
Senatorial and Representative dis
tricts. With our population as
shown by the last census, and un-
der the State constitution, the num-
Der of Senators may be increased
from 25 to 80, making 8 additional
Senators; and the Representatives
from rs, as at present, to 90. The
number Of votes in the State, accord
ing to the census just taken, is 344,-
741, and this is the basis upon which
the apportionment is made. Under
this, there would be one Senator to
every 10, 0,449 voters and one Repre-
sentative 10 each 3,482 voters. No
one county in East Tennessee will be
entitled to elect Senator, Knox be-
ing the nearest, and lacking about
1000 voters. Knox and Anderson,
or Knox and Union, will lack few
of the necessary number, but Knox
and one Of these counties will prob
ably compose the district, or per-
haps Knox and Loudon. Shelby
county lacks about 100 of the num-
Der required for two Senators and
Davidson has only about 5000 more
than is required for one. Maury is
the only other county in the State
that will elect a separate Senator.
In the House of Representatives,
Knox will have two representatives
and a joint representative with one
of the adjoining counties. Shelby
will have 5, Davidson +, and Maury,
Fayette, Gibson, Giles, Montgomery,
Madison, Rutherford Wilson and
Hamilton will have. two each. Blount,
Bradley, Crockett, DeKalb, Dyer,
Franklin, Hardeman, Hardin, Haw-
kin, Haywood, Henderson, Henry,
Jefferson, Lauderdale, Lincoln,
McMinn, McNairy, Marshall, Obion,
Roane, Robertson, Sewer, Smith,
Sullivan, Sumner, Upton, Warren,
Washington, Weakley and William
son will be entitled to one each.
Several Of these will have large frac-
tions to add on to other counties, en-
titling them to a voice in the selec-
ton ofjoint representatives.

THE FEMALE BARBER.

Women are now tackling every
profession and style of business.
There is hardly a walk of ike
adown whose shaded paths we do
not find the youg lady sauntering in
all her charming manner. Many of
them are becoming BARRIERS, and
successful ones, too. There is q
gentle touch required by barber
which is very grateful to the victim,
and which is easily picked up by
the lady apprentice. There is a
nameless joy that steals into mans
soul when a musical voice tickles a
mans ear as he lies in the chair with
his eyes closed, while the tips of
rosy fingers take him by the nose
and pry open his mouth, and a
dainty twist of the wrist fills his
back teeth full of soap and rain wat
er Oh, woman! Little do you
know what power for good you
possess. When you jab a mans
head back gainst the gable end of
the BARRIERS chair and hang it over
behind so that his Adams apple
sticks up into the scented air like
the breast bone of an old gobbler
that has died of starvation, you
have the'great, strong, manly lord
of creation where he is weak and
tractable as a child. Then you can
wear him out with an old razor
that you have shaved the whole
universe with. Then you can peel
off one feature after another and
throw it into an old nail keg, and
when you slice him up into sausage
you can talk to him and entertain
him and make him think he is hav-
ing bit of luxury ladled out to him
such us no other living man ever
cot. If female barber is handsome
she can shave her customers with a
bed slat and powder their faces
with Cayenne pepper and ginat
powder, and it will be all right.
A humble female barber, however,
would have nothing to do but to
hone up old razors and think about
the sombre past.

THE DIMINISHED GRAIN GRIP.
Ra1tiD,ora S1yD

If it be true, as some political
economist hold, that the value Of all
commodities and the limit of safe
production is determined by the
amount of the surplus of food pro
ducts, the showing made by Brad
streets of a falling of in this years
crop in the United States of ILL.,
O38,000 bushels of wheat and $780,
$4,000 of corn argues a decided re
adjustment of prices, of which part
has already been effected and an
other part remains perhaps to be
accomplished when the diminished
supply comes to be more distinctly
felt Along with the decreased pro-
ductiOn there has been a considera-
bic increase of the number of con-
sumers, both by immigration and
the natural growth of population, so
that even were our production of
food for this year equal to that Of
1880, our surplus to be exchanged
against the wares of manufacturers,
foreign and domestic, would be less
A rise in prices was then fairly to
be anticipated, but not SO large as
would have occurred had not the
crops of Russia been so good and
furnished supply for European
markets. And it must also be taken
into account, in considering the fol-
lowing figures, that dealers have al
ready to large extent discounted |
their effect. Operators in bread |
stuffs usually make the mistake of |
exaggerating the facts and their eff
feet on prices, and it is within the |
possibilities that the recent sharp |
advance in all sorts of provisions
has been pushed too far to last. A
recapitulation of Bradstreet's re-
turns exhibits this total yield of
wheat in 1881:

GARFIELD SAYINGS.

A pound of pluck is worth a ton
Of luck.
Liberty can be safe only when
suffrage is illuminated by education.
The granite hills are notso change
less and abiding as the restless sea.
Great ideas travel slowly, and for
time noiselessly, as the gods whose
feet were shOd with wool.
We no longer attribute the un-
timely death of infants to the sin
of Adam, but to bad nursing and
ignorance.
Throughout the whole web Of ma
tional existence we trace the golden
thread of human progress toward =
higher and better estate.
The flowers that bloom over the
garden wall of party politics are the
sweetest and most fragrant that
bloom in the gardens of this world.
Poverty is uncomfortable, as l can
certify but nine times out of ten,
the best thing that can happen to a
young man is to be tossed overheard
and compelled to sink or swim for
himself
Political parties, like poets, are
born not made. No act of political
mechanics, however wise, can man
ufacture to order and make a plat
form, and put party on it which
will live and flourish.
After the fire and blood of the
battle field have disappeared, no.
where does war show its destroying
power so certainly and so relentless
ly as in the columns which repre-
sent the expenditures Of the nation.
l look forward with Joy and hope
to the day when our brave people,
one in heart, one in their aspira-
tions for freedom and peace, shall
see that the darkness through which
we have travelled was but a part Of
that stern but benefcent discipline
by which the great Disposer of
events has been leading us on, to a
higher and nobler national life.
The man who wants to serve his
country must put himself in the line
of its leading thought, and that isl
the restoration of business, trade,
commerce, industry, sound political
economy, hard money and honest
payment of all obligations; and the
man who can add anything in the
direction of the accomplishment Of
any of these purposes is a public
benefactor.

NRa. oHR1sTANoYs STORY.


SHE RECOUNTs THE MANY INDIGNITIES
SHE ENDURED FROM HER sENAToF
| HUSBAND.
WASHINGTON, Oct 9.-Mrs. Chris
tiancy in the divorce case against
her husband, yesterday testified
that while residing in Lansing
Mich, on one occasion her husband
struck her and knocked her down.
Again, during the Christmas hoi-
days, in the year 1878, while they
were residing in this city, he struck
her and knocked her down, ana
during the night would not permit
her to have any clothing on vhe
bed. The weather was extremely
cold and she arose and went to an
adjoining room trying to make her
self more comfortable. When she
started to leave the room which
they had been occupying together,
he would not permit her to take any
clothing with her, and she was com
PEELED to pass the night with the
raiment she wore and what little
could be found in the room in
which she had entered.
In Peru, in the month of August,
1879, while living at the Legation,
he struck her several times on the
occasion, pushed her out of the
house and shut the door againts her.
Afterwards she returned with her
husbands son, when he struck her
again, and put both herself and his
son outdoors. He then called for
his son to come back, and told him
if he went away with the witness 1t
must be forever. ThesOn answered
that it would be forever, kept on
and escorted her to a hotel, where
she remained over night. The next
day he sent for her to return, the
messenger saying that he was very
sick, delirious, and in almost dying
condition. She went back to the
Legation, and instead of being sick
as stated, she found that her hus-
band was quietly lounging in the
sitting room. He then became very
kind to her, and remained so until
the following Monday, when he
came to her and used all sorts of
violence, saying that he told an un
truth when he said he was sorry
for the manner in which he treated
her He also assaulted her at the
one month later, when a
gentleman interfere1, and she re
fused to live with him after that.
The cross examination did not cause
any material deviation.

Morristown affords some as gal
liant and chivalric young gentlemen
and as beautiful, fair and Intelligent
young ladies, as can be found in
any spot upon this habitabIe
globe. We mean what we say, and
don't distribute taffy.

The croakers throughout the
country, as well as in Morristown,
are predicting terrible hard times
for the coming year. Well, all we
have to say upon the Abject, is for
everybody to hold q fat pocket-bo
and govern themselves accordingly.
If the people will do this we, think
it will not necessitate starvation or
