The largest crop of wheat ever
sown in East Tennessee has been
seeded this fall some remains to
be sowed yet, but the principal por-
ton OF the large acreage is up, and
far enough advanced to stand the
hardest freezes. Many fields look
as green as they generally do III the
early spring. Some sections art
troubled with the fly, but ON tht
whole the prospect for an lmmens,
yield was never better. .-Ha0c0tM

why Genius Goes to Waste.

From the Providence Journal.
The eldest sister Of Hawthorne has just died
at Salem, where she lived very retired life
in the oldest homestead, at the age Of eighty
years. Aside from the virtue and charms OF
her character, which were many, she was a
lady of uncommonly strong intellectual ca
pacity and sensitive temperament, and her
brother always declared that, if she had de-
voted herself to literature, she would have
surpassed his fame. However this may be,
there is always something of question
whether the finest quality of intellect is
always developed in literary fame, and whether
from some accident of difildence or lack of ex-
perience equal to the power of thought and
feeling there are no finer capacities that go to
waste, so far as the world is concerned, than
are realized. The obstacles in the way oil
publication are more numerous and discourag-
ing than are sometimes supposed, and ex-
preston in literature is an artificial rather than
natural faculty.
A strong determination and a desire for
fame are as necessary to push one before the
public as the faculty for expression, and while
the crude standard of practicability may be
generally Just, there is great deal Of a fine,
and, perhaps, the finest quality, that does not
reach it. The wonderful fertility of nature
suffers great deal TO 60 to waste, and there
may be an amount Of ungrown literature as
great as that which falls from barren seed OF
unfruItful soil. Those who are aware of the
circumstances Of fortune or the accidents OF
fate which have rescued genius from oblivion,
may have some idea of the many which check
or prevent it from knowledge or expression
and may understand that early death does moi
furnish the only grave of genius. In fact
there is great deal more lost than is saved il
the worlds harvest Of fame and ability.

China's the Worst Civil Service.

Competitive examination and hxity OF
tenure do not seem to have worked well in
China. The San Francisco Post goes SO far
as to say that China has the very worst civil
service of any organized government of which
the world has any knowledge; it is subject to
the grinding despotism of an exclusive caste;
it is run by bureaucracy; the people are not
considered except for purposes of taxation.

EDITORIAL SMALL SHOT.

CHICAGO claims sixty-four millionaires.
GOVERNOR ROBERTS opinions are OF little
value to a legislature that dances attendance
on Governor Ireland.
THE new year holds great changes in its
fold. The death of Gladstone and Bismarck
are among the probabilities.
GENERAL LOGAN seems to have struck
popular cord in the hearts OF the old soldiers
in his Porter speech. 1t was gallant, brave
speech.
GOVERNOR ROBERTS takes advantage Of
his message to entirly take the wind out Of
Governor Ireland's sails. He has covered
every topic Of state interest.
We STILL stick to our suggestion to Cover
nor Ireland to make his message short and
sweet. The opposite to Governor Roberts
lOng-winded document
SToRY'S address to the senate and Roberts
message contain the suggestion that the de-
mocracy have overlooked two very smart men
in not taking either of them for governor.
THK story about Porter being in the senate
during Logan's speech is denied. 1t was
another bald-headed, mutton-chop whiskers
looking fellow that was taken for Porter.
The presidential succession bill is a mis-
take. The constitution might be enlarged on
this point, but the idea of making the success
sion fall to cabinet officer is taking it away
fr ON the people.
THE verdict, after reading Governor Rob-
erts' message, must be: badly-managed
state government; our public domain squan-
dered; our state debt increased; our state
laws badly executed, etc.
Mr.. PRNDLEToN is accredited with extra
shrewdness in having congress waste its time
on his impracticable civil service bill. P. is a
prospective candidate for the presidency and
will claim that he outwitted the republican
congress.
GOVERNOR ROBERTS has saved Governor
Ireland great deal of trouble by sending in
