II is better to heed public opinion late than
never. Some of the Congressman who voted
away millions when the River and Harbor bill
was before the House some time ago, have
apparently taken alarm at the censure which
their extravaganza has called forth. 1t looks
now as if the measure might be defeated be-
fore the President has a chance 10 veto it.
If it should fail to become law Congressman
and the lobby can di vide the blame between
them. In their greed to get all they seem
likely to get nothing.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1882-07-26

Whatever the Presidents purely private
views may have been. or are now, his official
utterance in the Cabinet is that no person i'll
any of the executive departments shall be dis
charged or criticised for refusing TO contribute
money for political purposes THIS is sound.
1t is not necessary for the President to de-
clare that no one shall be discharged or crin-
cised for subscribing money TO pay legitimate
campaign expenses. Public sentiment has not
reached that point yet, and is not likely to do
so soon.

A Visit to Belle Meade.

This magnificent estate ofovcr
5000 acres is North west ofNash-
vile, Tenn, SIX miles; there is rail
road, the Nashville g. ST. Louis
running through it with a station
called Harding's near tho mansion.
Here resides Gen. w. G. Harding,
the most extensive breeder Of
horses in the Union. His three
stallions,G Great Tom, Enquirerand
Bramble,are SO well known that it
would be useless to describe them.
On the 29th ofApril at his annual
sale, was sold 36 one year old colts;
they brought near $4,000 cash;
they are beautiful animals and
were much admired. Milton
Young, George LorriIard, The
Dwyar Bros, Col. Bruce, editor
of the Turf and Farm; Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Read, Of Saratoga,
and many other Turfmen were
present and purchased largely.
One colt brought $4,50O.
This farm is admirably adapted
for stock raising, large portion
being in blue grass. 1t was csti-
mated that over 1900 persons
were in attendance on sale day.
Ample provision Of barbacued
meats and barrels Of butter milk
was provided free and sufficient
for tho great crowd.
The General has a large herd of
grade cattle, blooded sheep and
some ten or twelve Shutland po-
MES, together with Angora goats,
game fowls and other fine breeds,
with turkeys, etc. There is a saw
and grist mill ontthe place and a
fine extensive marble quarry, Of
which the pillars and steps ofhis

.notle mansion Ill. are constructed.
There, is the most perfect system Of
agriculture used here; immense
quantities of hay, barley, oats,
wheat and corn are annually
raised amply sufficient to supply
his stock. He has 80 thoroughbred
mares, that has never had a collar
on, or even skod; kept for breeding
alone and the General remarked
to me when j asked him if they
worked, "doos Queen Victoria
work or bake bread or wash
clothes, no sir, ifpcople were as
particular in breeding their own
progeny as I am with horses, there
would not be as many bad men and
women in this world as there is"
There is a park here of 400
acres with 36 acres left in "na--
tur@;" in it roam over 800 deer,
and before the war there were
many stately elk, Indian and
Rocky mountain buffalo, but the
United States soldiers slew them
all, and the only mementos left
are the gigantic antlers which
adorn the outer corridors Of the
mansion. The grounds and farm
are kept in admirable orber; most
Of the fences nre of rock; a
beautiful stream winds along the
base of the lawn, and its clear
waters ripping over the rocks,
makes music for this aesthetic
homo.
Gen. Harding is ID years ofage
and is in infirm health; he is a
genial gentleman of the old school
and thorough scholar, a graduate
Of the A. L. G. S. Academy, Mid
dletown, Connecticut, under the
superintendent of Capt. Alden
Partridge. He has written several
articles of high merit, on the sub
ject of immigration, which were
published in the history of David
son county, Tenn. His son-in-
law, Gen. W. Ii. jackson, super
intends the vast interests of the
place with admirable Judgment
and indomitablc energy, Il host in
himself. This household are of the
old time Southern fashion; hos
pitable to a fault; ain,high-midcd,
but highly cultured people.
There were present as invited
guests, Hon. Thomas Bayard, Sen
ator from Delaware; Senator Cor
man, Of Maryland; Senator II T..
Jackson, of Tennessee, a son-in-
law of Gen. Harding's; Mr..
Baughman and Hon. George B.
Loring, Commissioner Of Agri-
culture. | was much pleased to
TO find DR.. Loring genial gentle
man, and the right man in the
right place, highly educated and
very practical. N.

AIIUMAN;I1 LIFE.

That Is passing on the street,
Many o wild aud wondroas drama
neach human face we meet.
Every human lHe q mystery.
Far beyond all mortal ken;
livery human life 10 history,
fs B Worthy offa poets pen,
livery human life glory,
Or q SORROW, oil Its owo;
Every human life q story
}A One can fully know alone;
Every human life beauty
That no other eye can view;
Every bumanlife q duty
That no othor life can do.
Ard to every life belonging
Are the sobs aud the delight,
And the yearning and the longing
For tho love aud for tho light.
T Aud the love, aud the forsaking,
Aud the passion, and the pain,
I And the sleep, aud the awaking
Aud the wilful sleep again.
. And the something, oh! my brother,
$E In your heart as woll as niue,
That we do not tell each other,
Be itdemon, or divine!
Buried deep, and guarded truly,
Hid from men, but known to God,
Isps,o roxyorI oI In1o
But if demon, Satan's rod.
Satan's rod, forever scou-giug
Will, deep aud burning soar;
Satan's rod, forever urging
On his victims to despair.
All. the secret thoughts and passions,
Buried in each bosom deep;
(Changing with each 6ccting fashion)
Know no rest, seek no sleep.
Men with stern and rugged features
Battling with life's cruel tide;
Fiokle fortunes jaded creatures
Reckless what shall next botide.
Pass along with looks defiant,
Proud and stubborn as of old
Will not bend the knee suppliaut
To the world so proud aud cold.
Children with their smiling faces,
Full of Innocence und glce;
Types of virtues sunny graces,
Merry, happy, b'ithe and free,
Also join the long procession
Ever passing on the street,
Happy in tho fond possession,
OF the love of all they meet
Sad of face aud conscience stricken,
See that young man passing there;
All! his dangers quickly thickcn,
All his path is strewn with care.
Many secret ain and sorrow
Doth his sin stained conscience drown,
And he fears lest each Tomorrow,
Briog his retribution down
Old and young, boy and maiden,
Pass in nevor-cnding stream,
While the MUD Of ouch is laden,
With the burden of dream.
Dreams of riches, joys and pleasures,
Thoughts of love, or, hopes of fame;
Anxious cares for boarded treasures
Flush of pride, or qualm of shame.
? This the oft-rcpeatcd srory,
Borne tlopg the crowded way;
Sin and shame and fame aud glory,
Side by side pursue their way.
'Tis a drama always changing;
But the wonder md the woe,
Fen the guardian angels ranging
Through the ether, scarce can know.
Look upon the panorama,
OF the passcrs on the street;
And 10 every .aco drama
Wild and wondrous you will meet

The Soldiers Friend.

Mr.. EDITOR 1t is surprising how
many the friends the old soldier has,
especially when his vote is wanted.
The latest and most remarkable con-
vert to his friendship is the Ex-Judge
Houk, who has never been regarded
as the soldiers champion until quite
recently,
Let us examine the record, and see
what the ex>judge has done for the
old soldier, and why this sudden
gush of friendship. One of his first
appointments, his private secretary,
is Dick Austin, who now has q $4,000
office, who was neither a soldier nor
a resident of his State. He had Col
MINIS removed, who was "a gallant
soldier, and appointed in his place,
III. r. Gibson, who was not soldier,
but a self breveted colonel for a gal
liant charge on a box of bareback,
way up to the front, in Delaware,
where the heavy fighting was.
He also gave the post-office at
Knoxville to Ex- Judge Temple, who
was not a soldier, but who took an
oath to support the confederacy, and
boosted of it as the proudest act OF
his life.
He also secured the removal of
General Wilder, as postmaster at
Chattanooga, who was distinguished
soldier, and appointed in his place,
Harry Griseom, who was not a sol
| der.
His own paper claims that he se>
cured the appointment of Walter
Brownlow to $4,000 Office, who was
not soldier.
Now, is it possible that of the
thirty-one thousand soldiers Tennes
see furnished for the Union army
more could not be found to Ill
these places of trust and emolument
Great heavens how his heart pant
eth not for the old soldier.

ers. He shows the necessity of at
least 15 cents on the hundred with
6 days work I cheerfully make this
correction. Those of the county can
didates that were not mentioned in
my last letter have been
trying to learn who "Pontius
PLATE is, with intentions of ego
ing for him The fact is, all the
boys can not be nominated, though
each one believes his chances the
beSts.
The Office of trustee is mixed yet.
Matt Johnston's friends claim that
he should have the race, as he gave
way two years ago. Frank Fraziers
friends claim that he can get the
disaffected Democrats that won't
support Reeder. Tom Montgomery's
friends think that he is entitled to
| the race. So here we have it.
Old man 10. Hicks, who has been
county register for twenty-five years,
will be defeated this time Jois
good one, but he is Democrat. He
has always been elected here~
tofore by getting out four
/ to five candidates against him. They
1 tell it on him tnat he tells the boys
confdentially that his Office is worth
over thousand dollars per year
consequently they oil want it.
! In our last we mentioned that Mr..
Stockburger would probably be
nominated for sheriff. The boys call
him Stock-booger very good
name we'll bet copper that he is
| the ugliest man in Bradley County.
While we think it probable that he
will be nominated, it is by no means
certain, as Jack Carson is popular
man and has made a good officer.
Dan Mcdowell, it is also admitted,
would make the best officer the
county ever had, while Isham Julien
is popular young man and would
make good race,
The Herald of this morning states
that Mr. P. Julien, near
Chatata, had his hand cut
off by saw mill few days ago
1t also states that E. S. Delaney has
withdrawn from the race for circuit
clerk. We notice in the same paper
an article on the proposed railroad
from Cleveland to Ducktown. Cleve-
land feels rather good over the pros
poets OF that road. The Banner
comes out this morning in new dress
its spring clothing We suppose.
