MoRRTsrOWN GAZETTE: Our "female
barber" Is just now the best advertised
person in MorTistown. She has been
paragraphed by the press almost from
Maine TO California. But all this does
not in the least change Katie's price for
single shave, a shampoo or a hair dye.
She still adheres TO former rates, shsrp
razOrs, etc, and guarantees satisfaction
TO every gentleman who patrOniGes her.
Milan has the handsomest young
white male barber in the South, and he
Is universally popular. His tonsorial
parlor IL delightful place, and il only
needs the magic touch of lady's hand

the State. Rich has also Just put in a
beautiful new DAISY" chair, elegant
mirror, aud all he needs now is some
one 10 ran it. He has TOO much work
for one. he will pay an extra good sal
airy to Katie" il she will come here. or
offer her a partnership In the business.
-Alan Ezchange
Personally and collectively, we have
no special objections TO offer in the
contamination OF an arrangement that
would afford SO much genuine pleasure
and happiness TO the handsomest
young white male barber in the South, I"
but really We don't believe such an
arrangement would be consistent with
law and public opinion. Katie Is a
lady OF color.

The "fire fiend" seems determined to
devastate Tennessee country towns. Ii
becomes more apparent every day that
some means must be adopted by which
the destruction of property by fire can
be checked. The problem is one which
rests with the architects aud builders.
The authorities of the country towns in
the State ought to realize by this time
that to allow fire harbors 10 be erected
in the business portion sc their towns is
TO Invite the fire TO destroy the property
of the people and that Il ignore the
necessity for a fire department is to
place the inhabitants and buildings al
the mercy of the flames. If fire
proof buildings only are erected in the
thickly settled portion Of a town,
destructive fires will be few and far be-
tween, but If all sorts of rattletraps are
allowed TO be sandwiched in between
buildings Of value, destruction may be
looked for at any moment.-NasEriRe

TIE FREE TRADE ISSUE.

Jay Gould in an interview with
a reporter of the New York World
in regard to the election of Mr.. Car
isle, said:
"Mr. Carlisle is a good statesman,
and he will undoubtedly perform
the duties ofhis Office fearlessly and
impartially." He did not think the
Democratic party would try any ex-
pertinent in the way of free trade
very SOON. ain fact, continued Mr..
Gould, the speech made by Mr.. Car
isle to-day has a good ring, and
whatever uneasiness the public may
have had on the subject of prema-
ture free trade legislation his adj
dress ought to carry with it sutfi-
Gent quoting effect. Mr.. Gould
docs not think the Speaker of the
House, however strong his free trade
convictions. may be, will have any
influence upon the House. He did
not think that Mr.. Carlisle's free
trade principles had much to do with
his elections, as a great many Dem
ocrats who voted for him would not
favor free trade at any election.
II do not think" he added, that
the country is ready for free trade.
Its prosperity is largely bound up |
in the prosperity of the manufac-
turing interests, and until labor and
reach the same plane,
free trade would be disastrous.
think the present Congress will be
a conservative body. What the
country needs to-day is rest, in order
to develop its resources. / have had

down in New Orleans, for S25 per

glish and American labor. Every
lollar that is taken off the tariff

jail escapes ever recorded in that sec
lion was accomplished. Fourteen pris-

clu ing murder, horse-slealing, high
way robbery, burglary, ETC., effected
their escape by saving through the iron
plates Of their cells with saws made
from the steel shanks in their shoes.
The escape was made at dusk, the prs

aPcrlures and gaining the ground by
means OF a rope made Of their bed quilts.
The jail was built emily last year, at
cost Of $50. 600, and was regarded as one

Grand DisplaysOf Fancy Groceries by
Christian & White.

There was probably nothing at our State
Fair that commanded the attention and at
tracted the admiration of the people gem
orally more than the magnificent display OF
the old-established house OF Christian Il
White did. In fact they excelled them
selves. There we found fruits. conserves,
&c., in great variety. from the tropical
climes, presenting an appearance rs though
they were freshly gathered, causing the
mouths OF the spectators TO water as they
passed in review. Their display OF fancy
groceries was superb, exhibiting variety
rarely seen in any community; and their
wines, liquors, and cigars would have
tempted the gods and made merry the sad
dest. Altogether, their stand was by far
the most attractive feature of the various
exhibitions, as the temptations to the inner
man were irresistible. We cannot close
without referring to two magnificent loaves
OF bread on exhibition made from Dunlop
& McCance's Patent Decorticated Flour Ii
was simply beautiful, and had 1t been en-
tered on the prize-list we are satisfied it
would have commanded the first premium,
rs IL could not have been surpassed. The
number Of premiums awarded the firm at
test the merit OF their magnificent eXhibi-
btion and our representation.
Too much praise cannot be awarded
their skilful. courteous, and experienced
salesman. Mr.. Thomas VI. Ilundley, for the
exquisite taste and Judgment displayed in
the design and arrangement of their at
tractive stand, rs he was the author and
finisher OF il.

Fitz Lee I'm Manchester.

Last night a Democratic mass-meetlng,
gotten up on one days notice, was held in
front OF the courthouse in Manchester.
Notwithstanding the chilly air, a very
large crowd OF the best citizens OF Man
chester was in attendance TO welcome Gen
eral Fitz Lee. who was announced to
speak.
The meeting was called to order at a
quarter past S O'Clock by Mayor Taylor,
who, with a few appropriate and we'll
selected remarks, introduced Mr.. b. o..
James. Of Goochland. Mr.. James made a
short but very fine and practical speech,
which had good effect upon his bearers.
General Lee then took the stand and for
an hour and half held the undivided at
tentlon OF his audience, and made one OF
the most eloquent and stirring speeches
that has been listened to In this city for
long time. o,
At the conclusion OF General Lees
speech. Mayor Taylor proposed three
cheers for the Democratic party, and cry
was sent up which would have compared
fayorably with the old Confederate yells.
Major Warwick was on hand to look
after the interest of his party, and Messrs.
B. A. Hancock and L. NJ. Millerand others
made short but pointed remarks.
