a Washington County Bissmist Caught
by Officer Junkins In rev Martins
Vile.
Last Thursday evening. Mayor Egerter
received a letter from Joseph hupp'
ESQ OF West Alexander, offering re-
ward of a suitable amount for the arrest
Of one John Askin, or as ne is some
times called John Ashton, whose bonds
nan he was. and saying Askin had
;nmpad the same and was supposed TO
~ in this CITY. The letter WAS handed
m CAPTAIN Bennett and that night he
and Officer Junkins drove out 10 West
Alexander and ascertained the true state
oil affairs.
Askin was working on the farm OF
Hupp and was, so the story runs, the
plaintiff in a civil suit against his
brother in law, in which tie sued for a
small amount claimed TO be due. This
aroused the ire OF the defendant and he
knowing that Askins Was a much mar
ried man wrote 10 his first wife who was
living in Benwood and had been seperat
ed from her husband forthree wears, tell
inc her how matters were. She went to
Washington county and instituted suit
aud thus it was that Mr.. Hupp became
the bondsman in the case. While out OH
bail Askins shipped his new wife down
to a point near New Martinsville and all
being in readiness, he skipped out him
sell, leaving Hupp liable Tor $500.
Last Monday Officer Junkins went
down the river and found his man in
wood choppers camp near New Mar
tinsville He was disposed to make
some trouble, and was partially backeu
by his companions and two pettifogging
LAWYERS. An innocent individual in the
person OF the Sheriff wanted to know il
Detective Bob was an United States
officer, and was little doubtful about
letting the man 90. Junkins was brm
through it all, and yesterday morning
landed his man here. Askins was
bound to have arequisition, hut seeing
taat that would cause him trouble, e
decided to 90 to Washington county
quietly. The afternoon train was ac-
cordingly taken, and last night the prls'
oner slept in the Washington county
Jail. Askins is a man OF about
twenty-eight years OF age. When he
was born, or in what Action he was rails
ed is not known. Some years since he
married wife No. in Pennsylvania, Just
over the line, near Cameron. Abont
three wears ago he tired OF her and mar
riot No. =, VINO has Il three months old
child by him at present.
Captain Bennett is congratulated on
the quick manner in which he and his
men have worked the matter up.

SOMETHING MORE ABOUT
GIBrON.

That weak, vain, conceited, Titles
souled creature, Henry r. Gibson,
devotes a great deal of space in the
last issue Of his paper.to the editor
of the CHRONICLE. This is nothing
more than we expected, nor are We
surprised at the medley of false
hoods with which he vainly attempts
to escape from the effects Of his re-
cent base and unprovoked attack
upon Hon. Horace Maynard and
the Republican party in Tennessee,
He Writhes under the castigation
We have administered, which he
knows is endorsed by at least nine
ty-fve per cent. of all the Republic
cans in Tennessee, and if he could
escape their Indignation he would
gladly do SO. After the assumption
of superior wisdom which he has res
Gently displayed, presuming as he
does that he knows better what is
good for the masses of the Republi-
can party than they do themselves,
it seems proper that We should tell
something about who this little
great man is; this man who believes
that he has a mission to perform as
the guardian of our benighted, and
in his estimation, ignorant people
And before doing SO, we beg par,
don of our readers for devoting so
much space to small and unworthy
a subject.
Gibson's early history is wrapt in
obscurlty, SO far as the people here
are concerned, and we shall not une
dertake to delve into its insignificant
mysteries. His first public per-
Torrance of which we have any
information, was that of writing rebel
doggerel in South Carolina, some
time before, or about the commence
ment of the late war. How much
his early espousal of the rebel cause
contributed to its final failure we
will leave to our readers who know
the little fellow to determine. Find
ing no doubt as he did that to stay
In the South involved fighting fol-
the cause with which he sympathis-
ed, he incontinently left the South
ern Confederacy, and We next hear
Of him doing duty in a bomb~prooi
position as a quartermaster' clerk
in the Union army, where no harm
could come to his precious carcass
This was the extent of his patrio tisu
and this constitutes all the claim he
has to the title of Colonel which
he displays with so much character,
lstic vanity through the columns O.
his paper. Our information is, thai
before coming to Tennessee, he was
a copperhead of the Valandighau
school, one of that Shiny class o
towards who sympathized with tn,
Southern Confederacy, who woul'
not fight for it, but who stood read,
when they could safely do SO, to as
sassinate those who were fighting
against it.
Soon after the war he turned VI
in Tennessee and settled dowI
among the honest people of Camp
bell county. He has since divided
his time between the practice Of Law
and politics. He is a shyster at thu

Symptoms of Catarrh, by DIR. Jones

/. OF THE HEAD.-Tingling, itching,
with a sense of dryness. and distractions
of the nose, sneeziDg, running OF watery
secretion as it progresses, the secretion
becomes mucous, entire obstruction of one
or both nostrls, hawking, tickling of the
throat, coughing, etc. 2. Catarrh of the
chest prevails as an epidemic sometimes,
and i! called influenza, with or without
fever, and many of the symptoms just
mentioned; there is oppression across the
breast, rawness and burning of the throat,
first dry, afterwards a copious secretion or
mucous. which may become opaque or
fruthy, difficult of breathing, pain in the
head, and dull feelings, sense
of soreness extending under the breast
bone to the stomach pit; the
first of coughing may occasion vomiting,
oppression, p:ostration, as the disc ase pro-
crosses, the sputa becomes ropy and viscid.
This disease is called the Grippe by some.
Catarrhal inflammation Of the eyes arises
from colds, causes obstruction of the ear
passages, watery eyes, fstula, lachryinalis,
dimness of vision, &c.
Suppressed catarrh may produce infla-
nation of the lungs, brain or eyes, or give
rise to rheumatism, nervous disorders,
weeping, moaning, tremors and convul-
sions, drowsiness, chilliness, starting,
twitching, palpitation of the heart, &c.
When the frontal slnews above the eyes,
posterior and anterior nasal passages, be-
come clogged up, and even the sntrum or
cavity of the cheek bone becomes filled, or
partly, it often produces pressure of the
nerves that supply these parts, and pains
like the most excruciating neuralgia is the
result. The disease follows the mucous
mem brane through the eustachian tubes
10 all parts of the same membrane of the
ear, causing hypertrophy of the dram,
interferes with the functions of the glands
of wharton, which secrete the wax; a
dryness follows, hardness of hearing, roar
ing. singing. whistling, cracking, the
ringing of bells and similar noises, which
vary, and which are simple effects; and
when the cause is removed, the effects
cease; this hardness of hearing increases
with each cold.
Dr. Jones inserted an eye for me without
pin, which looks and moves like my natu-
raj eye. john G. Fox,

Great cure of Rheumatism, Neuralgia,

walk from the sitting room to the bed
roomi the eighth day walking still more,

all that time, and suffering intensely from
head TO feet inclusive with N .uralg ia and
rheumatism. She had tried several differ
ent medical resorts and many doctors. when
you were announced at the Hattie Hou, e,

under date of Fort Davis. Texas, July llth !:
Lieutenant Woodward. commanding cub.
post at Q uitman. reports that on July 9Th
two men, named Bell and Smith, employed
by Igc, railroad contractor. were found by
him dead at a water hole about half way be-
tween Quitmsn and Eagle Springs. The
men were shot several times, and one OF the
horses of the team was killed.
The men were taking load Of sup
plies from Woodwsrd's camp TO the con-
tractors camp. The night OF the 9th they
were at the stage station, gambling with
other men, snd it is not improbable that
they were killed by these men. The men
were not scslped, and the rations in the
wagon were untouched. 1t is reported from
Ell Peso that, July 4, i .ilssion was re.
