A stranger who happened to stroll up

what a bright and business like ap-

this moment the keogh band struck
up one of the gay airs aud proceeded
to parade the streets in the interest of
Len Shillito. who received benefit at
the Park theatre last night. This

THE MURDER MANL1


Every newspaper in the country
is teeming with glowing accounts of
murder. Almost every village in
the land is able to furnish It's quota
of shocking details of crime. But it
is seldom we see an account of
legal hanging. What is the matter?
Is it that all this army of murderers
are iustifiable in their heinous
crimes 2. Has it come to- such a
straight that the common people
are to- be shot down and no one
punished? To an observer these
seem to be the facts The cause, in
a great measure, is with our laws,
for they are not sufficient. Sheriffs,
in most instances do their duty.
Prosecuting attorneys work hard,
but the jury room clears the MUIR
derer and gives him again his lib
erty. Legal hangings in the coun-
try are worse needed just at the
present time than free school ap-
preparations, or any other kind of
appropriations, unless we can APP
prOpriate enough money to buy a
good jury of honest men.

A TENNESSEE AGRICULTURAL
AND CREAMERY CONVENTION.
~ Memphis Appeal
The Nashville Banner published
last week a-letter from Capt. Merry,
Of the Illinois Central railroad, to
Commissioner McWhirter, of Ten
nessee, suggesting that in February
next the farmers and dairymen of
Tennessee hold a convention at
Jackson. If that is agreed to, the
Central road will run an excursion
from the North and Northwest,
bringing farmers and dairymen who
have Thoughts of removing to the
South. These will participate in
the convention, and by their exper-
ience.and practical knowledge will do
much to make the occasion one OF
value to our people. Among them
will be practical creamery men, who
will bring pans, churns, rollers and
workers, and will exhibit the man
ner in which the labor of a first class
creamery is carried on. Experience
ed men will also give lectures on
dairy work, and on the manage
mentl of cattle for dairy uses, and
other branches of farming will be
treated of. This scheme for bring
ing Northern and Southern farmers
cannot but meet with I'M
iversaI appoval. It's practical ntili-
ty is evident at glance, especially
the part devoted tothe manufacture
of butter and cheese. Why should
we buy these articles elsewhere
when so much employment could be
given, such wealth realized and SO
large an amount of money retained
in the State by making these COM
in our own State, from the
produce of own fields? The press
throughout the State should lay
the matter before their readers, that
the convention may be the means of
up to effort as many Tennes-
see agrieulturists as possible.

From the tenor. of Rufus letter,
which appeared in the, GAZETTE
last week, one not acquainted with
this section and the writer would
think there were but few in this
locality but drunkards. Now let
me say that Isbelieve we have just
as good a neigEborhood as there is
in this county and some just as good
sober citizens as can be found any
where. Also, / tn nix RufFs letter
very much magnifed sand .uncalled
for. Those who live in glass houses
ought not to throw stones, and he
who is guilty of the least is guilty
of the whole. We could readily
call Ruffs attention to, matters we
would hate to write, knowing the
trials and temptations preachers
have to encounter. In these words
we will add that Ruff is tough and
little enough to guggle the stuff if
some one else pays for it.
