voted the Republican ticket who swear
by the ashes OF "Lincum" & Co. that

borrowed plumes and send him back to
his native element.
The people of East Tennessee are be-

TIE the Editor OF The MOrriEeuWR GaEette:
As sit here in my rosm and lock
over ON Fort Saunders can see the
splendid Cleveland and Hendricks ban
ner unfurling its folds in the breszes.
1t presents a magnificent appearance
there upon that elevated position. This
banner was raised last night amid the
NEST enthusiastic demonstrations Of
victory. A procession was formed in
the city Oh Gay street, headed by the
Enterprise Band. A large number Of
torch lights were used, which present.
ed beautiful scene to the eyes of the
many beholders. The procession reach
ed Fort Saunders about 8 o'clock, when
the magnificent banner was raised by
the West End Cleveland and Hendricks
Club amid loud cheers aud q rich dis
play of fireworks. When the banner
had been elevated and, caught by the
passing breeze, uufurled its beauty In
the torch-lit air, speeches were made
by Hon. c. w. Charlton, Hon. w. L..
LedgerwOod, and others, all OF which
were appropriate TO the occasion and
were highly appreciated. About n
thousand people were on the hill dur
Ing the time Of the raising Of the ban
ner and the speaking. Across the top
OF the pole upon which the proud bHn-
ner hangs Is fixed a large broom, which
means, Of course, a "clean sweep" In
November.
Outside Of politics the city has been
unusually dull and quiet. SO far rs
society is concerned il is very quiet.
A great many of the young ladies Of
the city are offattending school. How
ever, as the season for minstrel tronpes
and operas comes on the place will as
sumo an appearance Of more life and
gaIety. This season promises to be
one OF interest to the opera-loving part
OF our people.
All the schools Of the city are now
kN01 WNAAA1& 0A1GA @@A mA@ w ga
attended, save the University Of Ten
nessee, which has on its roll the names
of only about one hundred and fifty
young men. This number should be
nc least twice as large. But - It Ia
not 50, and why? echo answers,
why"
Every fall the question is asked
"why dOesa't Knoxville have . gosd
seminary for girlsr" and this question
Is again being agitAted. There seems
to be no good reason why there should
not be such an institution In this city.
Every year there are thousands Of dol
lars paid out from this city fer the edu-
cation Of our girls. all Of which should
be kept here. II seems that, While the
people OF this city az awake to the in
terests Of business. yet they arc net
showing wisdom In not having a first
class college for the education OF girls.

To the Editor Of The Morrisiown Gazette.
Asheville especially and Western
North Carolina generally has just pass
cd through a week of unusual interest
"A week that perhaps will effect more
for the future development of this sec
tion Ct the State than any in her past
history.
This interest has l. cen cOnce q tered in
the first meeting of the Western North
Carolina Fair Association. which en-
braced the Esd, oath, 25th and 26th in
stants, closing only yesterday.
This first exhibit Of the Association
has been a complete success, and is es-
pecially gratifying to its officers and
managers. Travelled and cultured Wis
itors from all sections Of the G. untry
pronounce the exhibit unusually COED
in every department.
The fruit display, notably that of APP
Piles, was greatly superior TO any here
tofore made in this section of the Uni
on. Indeed, heard gentlemen frem
New York and Pennsylvania say they
had never seen anything equal to IL.
The various counties OF Western
North Carolina made agenerous strug-
gle for the first place. Yancey bore of
the coveted prize with Haywood second
best. Capt. Neill's Yancey exhibit con-
tanned forty bushels, many single sp-
Piles weighing one pound and a half
How l wish the Captain would send
you some specimen copies" Eye and
tongue would be mutually delighted,
and you would experience that the half
could not be told.
The display of Live Stock was good,
especially Of horses. These mountain
farmers eve much to your old friend,
Maj. +. w. HerndOn, for the introduc-
ti0n Of some of the bss. blood in the
Union. A colored man from Concord,
n. G., exhibited feur of the most beau =
tiful and best tr4ined horses ever seen
in these parts. They were perfect in
form, faultless in every particular, and
cIeam-coloTed with hesh-colored nos
trils and eyelids.
The lovers Of the turf, also, had rae
ing TO their hearts content. Some Of
the fast horses from Kentucky. Virgil
mia, Tennessee and North and South
Carolina made trials of their speed.
Dear OLD GAZETTE, could ySu not in
duce your "Morristown and Cunber-

ate their labOrs by merging themselves
into Fair Association when their pre-
sent work is dones They might in this
way effect much for the counties OF

Frederick s. Nichols, editor-in-c chief
of the Memphis Avalanche, died sudden
ly at Davenport, Iowa, on the 2S1 inst,
whittier he had gone for his health. His
death was shock to his friends and
will cause universal regret throughout
the State, especially in newspaper cir
eles. Adopting the just language of the
Nashville Banner, he was recognized as
one of the most efficient and most fear
less journalists in Tennessee. He was
an editor who detested shams of all
kinds, and who was at all times eutspo-
ken in his sentiments. He thought for
himself, and yielded no blind obedience
to party dictation. He had common
sense way of dealing with questions
and particularly sententiOus and poin.
ted habit of expression. which made
him enc of the best photographers in the
whole country. He could often embo-
dy in five-line paragraph all the phil
osophy of a question in dispute, and at
one strske of the pen, felicitously pic
ture the inconsistencies of the position
taken by his antagonist. Paragraphing
was his forte, and the editorial columns
of his paper were never lacking point
ed and philosophic comment upon cur
rent matters, which attracted the atten-
ton of his contemporaries, and induced
its reproduction in other papers.

King and Peitibone spoke here to-day
TO about three hundred OF Granger

two hundred Democratic voters were

Pettibone didn't answer any Of Kings
