The Knoxville Chronicle expresses its
regret at the withdrawal Of Hon. W. p.
Brownlow from the congressional race
and pays him the following high com
pliment:
wv. p. Brownlow ia out in n card in
his paper Withdrawing from the contest
for the Republican nomination for con-
gress in the First district. We gather
from his card the impression that he
finds a r%evengcful feeling existing in Ger.
tain quarters against him, and while he
expresses the belief that his party friends
would make a gallant fight in his behalf
and give him the nomination, still, for
the sake of harmony, he prefers to fore.
go his W ample claims upon the party.
Regardless Of who may be the nominee,
we do not hesitate to say that we regret
that he has seen proper to withdraw,
both because of the reasons given, indi-
eating a state of feeling which should not
exist, and because, If nominated, he
would be elected and would make the
people a faithful and efficient servant and
the party a creditable representative. Mr..
Brownlow is a mar of great native intel
lect, Of commanding influence and
shrewdness, abstemious, energetic to II
wonderful degree, and irreproachable in
his private life and public career. No
one better understands the wants Ct the
people Of that district, and no one knows
better than he how best to serve them.
lie has been an able coadjutor of Maj
Peltibone during the latter's three terms,
and as a politician has ever been ready to
bury the Ratchet and let bygones be
bygones in truth. Regardless, however,
of Mr.. Brownlow, we trust our friends in
the first district will drop all factionalism
and unite heartily to give the entire Re.
publican ticket a rousingisupport.

subjects which come up for discussion.
II the farmers will take an interest in
them, and make them what they should
be, a place for the interchange of views
on subjects pertaining to agriculture,
they will result in much benefit to agri-
cultural interests. And as the agricultur-
al interest is the foundation Of all others,

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, April Ayes
terday evening a CHASTITY discovery was
made about five miles below the city, by
two boys. A sugar hogshead had been
left in a field by the late receding waters
of the Cumberland, which contained the
mutilated and much decomposed bodies
of a mar and woman, supposed to be ne
groes. The arms of the male were sepa-
rated from the body, while both of the
bodies had apparently been sawed in two.
The skulls were both missing. The pop
ular belief is that the bodies are subjects
from a medical college at Nashville.

THE Southwestern strike is practically
over. Though the Missouri and Texas
railroads are not running perfectly and
may not be for some time, yet the strike
is without grip or method. 1t has failed.
Mr.. Powderly says it should never have
been commenced. 1t had little merit to
back it, even from the standpoint OF the
Knights. 1t would seem, therefore, that
it had neither right to go on nor public
opinion for support. If it was not right,
of course it would not have public opin-
ion, something which Knights ought al
ways to remember. Whatever enterprise
of the Order does not have justice and
right on its side will fail.
