Attention is drawn in English papers to the
non-recognition of the English marriage law in
France, which leads to the desertion OF many
English women and children on their arrival in
that country. Frenchman may marry an
English girl in England according to English
laws, aud as long as they remain in England
they are lawfully welded but let trip to Paris
or to French soil be taken. and the wife is no
longer wife, and the children become illegiti-
mate. A short time ago a .Frenchman came to
Paris, and finding that the English woman he
had espoused eighteen years ago was not legally
his wife, honorably remarked her according to
the French law. But unfortunately Frenchmeti
do not always act thus, and instances may be
noted where the police have been called in to
expel the English wife and her babes as in
truders at the house Of the husband and father.

lesson here taught. Each one seems to demand
misfortune before learning wisdom. The young

have friend who lately buried bis wife, another
looked upon his daughter the last time. They
both bad been suffering from chronic female
complaint, which finally resulted IN death.
They refused TO secure remedies that would
effect cure. Your wife or daughter is suffer-
ing from the very same complaint and you know
it. You do not secure the medicine and they
are gradually declining. Does not the fate OF

Houk at New Hopewell.

MR. EDITOR: To-day Judge Houk filled
his appointment at New Hopewel. He was
met by perhaps forty men from this and
surrounding districts, who escorted him to
the church, and, notwithstanding that the
congregation had passed resolution for
bidding any public speaking in their house,
yet, number Of the crowd, headed by
Rev. A. p Smith, entered the church and
carried out the benches, and thereupon the
judge proceeded to enlighten his small
squad by few remarks in the open air.
He spoke of good many things, but some
how or other forgot to make mention of that
''pizen" yarn, the Washington calaboose
or, last but not least, that Ebbitt House af-
fair. After the ''ittle boss" concluded,
Jim Burnett stepped forward and presented
the speaker with bunch of flowers, which
he said was from the ladies. I am, how
ever, authorized by number of the most
Intelligent ladies in this communi-
ty to say that they had
nothing to do with the presentation of
the flowers, that Mr.. aouk received here;
and furthermore, that they are not in the
habit of making such presents to as notori
GUS a drunkard as Houk is, Prominent
among the little squad present was Mr.. M.
J. Childress, of your city.
predict that on Tuesday the good peo-
pie of the district will show to the world
that they will not support drunkard for
Congress. Yours &C., w. q. M.

The Canvass in Roane County.

We have good reports from the canvass
for Rule and the right in Roane County.
Hon. Fl. M. Wiltse; the gifted stump orator
from Chattanooga, has been making some
telling speeches through the county. At
Kingston and other places he used with tell
ing effect the letter from W. Carlysle Shell
ley to G.. A. Guenther, copied into our
columns from the East Tennesseean.
He was met by J. G. Pope, at Kingston, but
the latter was so badly used up that he was
heard to say he would give 80 to have been
out of the scrape
At lockwood, on the End inst, Mr..
Wiltse had good crowd, and made an
effective effort. d. M. Coffman, of the
Republican, met him, for Houk, but Mr..
Wiltse produced and read Coffman,s speech
on Houk two years ago. and it pleased the
crowd immensely. Coffman confessed that
he made that speech, but said he was now
working for pay and intended to earn his
money, if possible

Sudden Death.

Jerry Burgen, colored, while sitting in
Garrett Moran's store, at the corner of Gro
zier and Main streets, about half past 12
o'clock yesterday afternoon, suddenly fell
dead. Coroner R. 81. Hood was summoned
to the scene and empanneled the following
jury of inquest over the body:
g. j. Rule, Cole Nelson, Garrett Moran
Louis Herman, Henry Woods, Armstead
Huckaby and VIM. Tow. DIR. A B. Tad
lock was called, and examined the body,
and pronounced the death to be from con-
gestion of the lungs and heart disease, and
the the verdict of the juy was, death from
natural causes.
Burgen's home, it seems, is in Middle
Tennessee, and he had no acquaintances
or friends here. He had been on the railroad
works, and in the city, in sick and desti-
ture condition for few days. Efforts were
being made to get him home.
Coroner Hood procured a coffin from
Esq. Shepard, and had the remains prepared
for burial in the comfy cemetery.

Our POst-Omce.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 2.-There
are very good reasons for believing
that th,re is much crookedness in
the Knoxville Post-ofice. Some
time ago one of the clerks was dis
missed for hiding lot of political
documents deposited in the Office by
ex-Representative Jacob M. Thorn
burgh, chairman of the Republican
Congressional committee for this
district. Within the last two months
a number of letters sent from
different parts of the district to
Mr. Rule, Republican candidate for
Congress against Judge Houk, and
also other gentlemen IN this this city
have never been deliveIe ed, and many
persons have of late been afraid to
trust certain letters in the post
Office. Gentlemen in Washing
ton have for some time past regis
tered all letters addressed to mem
bers OF the Rule committee and to
newspapers III this city.
A LARGE NUMBER OF PAPERS
sent from this city have never reached
the persons addressed. The same is
true with reference to number of
communications sent to journals in
different parts of the country. A
few days ago one of the newspapers
OF this city had long editorial re-
citing that many of their subscribers
in this and adjoining counties have
not received their papers for four
weeks or longer, and intimating
that the reason of delay is the fact
that they are opposed to the re-
election of Judge Hoax to Congress,
and that it was very remarkable that
Judge Houks organ in this city
never failed of being promptly de
hvered. This extraordinary delay
and loss in the mails has caused a
great deal of Indignation here, and
complaints will be made to the de-
partment at Washington.

ST.. LOUIS, November An the
United States Court yesterday,
while x-United States Senator John
B. Henderson and Henry A. Cun>
ningham were discussing an order
of the court, in a case in which both
were counsel, Henderson remarked
that Cunningham had not kept faith
in SONG matter connected with the
case. Cunningham replied in
heated in manner that the
assertion was false. Hen
derson struck out from
the shoulder and placed three blows
on Cunningham's face and head,
knocking him violently against an
iron pillar in the court>room and
thence to the floor. Friends inter,
fered, and the belligerents were sep>
arated.
Judge Trent was greatly shocked,
and the affray was the most dise
graceful thing, he said, that had
occurred in court during the "a years
he had been on the bench, and he
fined Henderson, Notwithstanding
he made an apology.
