Our Correspondence
GPEENEVILLE LETTER,

Matters of Interest From our Sister
Town.
GREENEvILLE, Nov. 26.-Pas-
sing around to see the improvd-
ments going on in our Jail yard,
yesterday. observed that Horace
Bakers chicken coop-which is a
very large one-cOntains a host of
turkeys, say 300! This is sugges-
tive-of what? Thanksgiving
And so, New England habits are
growing on us, more and more. 1t
was only a few years ago that the
governors of the southern states
disdained to notice the day which
New England observed with the
unanimity with which Christmas
has always been observed in all
the south. Fifty years ago New
England people secuted and deri-
ded the observance of Christmas,
except by the Episcopalians and
Roman Catholics. Now, it is
generally observed. So we see
that customs change, but the
change is brought about gIadu-
ally.
In my last, 1 informed your rea-
ders that Rev. Mr.. Bachman
would commence a p%rotracted
meeting on Thursday, the Sth inst.
and services were then commenced
which have been kept up till last
The meetings were all held
in the Presbyterian church, but
participated in by all the Protes-
tant ministers and congregations.
Mr.. Bachman preached every ser
mon, and conducted q prayer
meeting one hour each day. 1t is
to be hoped that good will result
from this meeting, for some profess
to have passed from death unto
life.
While there is some sickness
here, the health of our community
is generally good.
Major T.. Henry has been suf-
for some days, but is out
looking the worse from a
of intense pain.
Joseph Self is yet unable to use
his limbs, while his nephew, JOS
eph McCorkle, has been Frustrated
for a week or more, with the chtlls.

China's Diplomatic Circular.

The Chinese government has ad-
dressed a circular letter relative to
AMMAN to all foreign powers. The
text of that document, recently de-
livered to Mr., Frelinghuysen, the
Secretary of State, by the minister
of China at Washington, is as fol-
lows;
canaan has been a dependent
State to the Tia Using dynasty for
more than two hundred years, the
ruler of the former sending tribute
to the latter, and receiving from the
latter his investiture, Some twenty
years ago. when the northern por-
ton of Apnara was disturbed by
rebels, the Ia Using dynasty sent
troops across the frontier to quell
and dispense them. This occupied
n space of upwards of ten years, and
cost the government many millions
of dollars in order to strenuously
protect and defend the government
of AMMAN. Now France invades that
country without cause, and, awaiting
herself of the opportunity of the
death of its king, has enforced the
Hue treaty, in which there is a pro-
vision that China must not inter-
fere with the government of AMMAN
and SO forth. This shows that
France refuses to recognize AMMAN
as a vessel to China. The foreign
powers, from these facts, a with
equity distinguish which governs
ment is in the wrong and which in
the right. If France desires to
maintain friendly relations with
China, why should we not discuss
the matter amicably? Ii she insist
upon invading the northern part of
AMMAN, where our troops are sta
toned, this indicates that she is
determined to break the friendly
tie, and our troops there cannot re-
main with folded arms, but must
meet them in the field. We there
fore send this communication to all
foreign powers, showing that in the
event of the friendly tie being bro,
ken, the cause OF the rupture does
not come from China.

eye, and stabbed in the left side
Dir. w. A. Dulaney, who examined

Johnson City's Big Tannery.

Enterprise.
The steam tanuery is now ais
most completed. The large engine
was fired up last Saturday, and
the whistle was heard far and
near. The large stack-reaching
65 feet in the air, is a grand look
ing piece of mechanism, the work
of which was under the supervise
ion of J.. j. Adams, brick mason
and contractor. 1t stands as a
great recommendation to his me-
chanical genius. The large four
story b uilding as is several of the
rest is nearing completion, and the
company will soon be ready for
the manufacture of leather at an
enormous rate. They are erecting
a reservoir which will be near, or
about the centre of the yard,
with which they can throw water
over all the building in case of fire.
This is a big thing for East
Tennessee and liz a great thing for
Johnson City, and should be seen
to know its exact worth and x
tent of its capacity; as q deScrip.
ton is hard to get at.
