A letter from ''Junius" in the Car
thage Mirrow, which will be found
elsewhere, hits off a certain character
of politicians il this state in a very
happy and very vigorous style, These
are the new-issue political dudes,
who think the doctrines Of our faith
erssare not good enough for their
children, and that the upturning of
all ideas which Obtained more than a
score Of years ago is synonym for
progress" A man who dares to ex-
press a reverence for the teachings
of Jefferson, Madison, or any of the
fathers Of our Government Is imme-
dlately dubbed Bourbon" and a
"mossback." These gentlemen want
progressive, Democracy-suce of
them as are Democrats. They want
a party which will ''get out of the
old ruts"-that is to say. a party
which will abandon all the teacheng
of the past, forsake the Constitution
and give itself exclusively to the
business of high-handed robbery and
public plumber. That is about the
size Of the progressive Democracy
that we hear so much of.-Ameri-
can.

A Peculiar phenomena.

The Banner printed curious item
the other day, directing attention
to the fact that rain had been falling
on a spot in Trimble bottom twenty
feet square. while all around was as
dry as powder horn. This curious
phenomena was reported today on
Biibo avenue. Rain has been fall
ing all day on little plat of ground
about ten feet square and nowhere
else in the vicinity. When the fact
became known a large crowd gath
cred around to gaze upon the curious
spectacle. It is indeed most singular
and no one has yet ventured an
opinion as to the cause, The ground
within the ten feet square IS moist,
while all around it is perfectly dry.
The rain comes down more in the
form of a mist than a shower, but
of sufficient volumn to wet a person
if he should remain within the boun-
diaries few minutes. The phenom
ena presents a fruitful field to the
scientist Nashville Banner.

HON. ia, MANSON,

The gentleman whose name
stands at the head of this article
will be an applicant for the position
of Superintendent ofPublic Instruc>
ton for the State of Tennessee
Mr.. Manson is a great fayOrite with
the people of tins county, in fact,
he is deservedly popular where ever
he is known, and his 10years service
in the House of Representatives,
as Representative from this county,
has given him an extensive acquain-
lance with the public men of this
state. AS speakerof the present
House of Representatives, he made
an enviable reputation for prompt
ness and impartiality as a presiding
officer, AMI showed that he possessed
excellent administrative ability.
Mr.. Manson has also had considera-
BILE experience as a teacher. and no
man In the state is better acqualnte
ed with the needs of our public
school system. He is. moreover,
possessed of a wonderful amount of
energy, and believes in doing well
every thing which he undertakes. We
know of no man in Tennessee
who is better qualified for a proper
discharge of the duties Of this re-
spOnsiblc position. He has a tho
rough education, and has been a
successful teacher during the ten.
or more, years IN which he has been
engaged IN that work. He will be
strongly endorsed for the position
from every portion of the state, and
we hope Governor Taylor will appoint
HIM to the place.

THANKSGIVING.
Gov. Bate Issues His Annual Proclama-
ton.

State Of Tennessee-Thanksgiv-
ing Proclamation by the Governor
Another year of prosperity has been
added to the life of Tennessee. and
in conformity with Christian and
social recognition thereof, let US
observe the beautiful time-honored
custom Of thanksgiving. Let us
rejoice in praise and thanksgiving
that we have, for the past year
been alike free from those physical
disturbances that have visited and
shocked other localities, as we have
from Pestilence and drouth, with
attendant suffering and sorrow.
We have also been comp aritively
free from those social and CONNER
cial disturbances which have alarmed
and paralyzed other communities.
Along with these our soil, the chief
source Of prosperity, inspired by
favorable seasons, has this year given
generous response to the toll of the
husbandman, even filing our gra~
neries and bringing prosperity and
happiness unto the people of our
State
Within this time, too, our fields
and orchards have been extended
and utilized by better culture; our
machine work, manufacturing enter
prises haYe increased III number
and capacity; our mines have been
extended, and new ones discovered
and opened up; and while these
developments progress, our churches
and schools have been multiplied
in nun Der with corresponding
educational and Christian influence,
until Tennessee is re garded as meyer
so prosperous.
Being recipients of such blessing,
should we not feel and evince graft
tude to the great giver of all goods
| Moved by such influence and
| speaking for the good and Christian
people OF our State, so blessed, I.
VIM. B. Bate, as Governor Of
| Tennessee, and in harmony with Tie
| Natioal Proclamation of President
| Cleveland, do hereby recommend
and set apart Thursday; the 25tt
day of November, 1886, as a day o.
general thanksgiving and praise tc
Almighty God for all our blessings
and in dolngso request all to refrain
on that day, from unnecessary
labor, and that it be devoted to gooc
works-especially remembering The
sick, the poor and needy.
In testimony whereof, I hay,
: hereunto set nv hand and caused
, the great seal Of the State to be
affixed at the Department, in Nash
: vile, on this 18th day of Novem
Der, A. D., 1886. By the Governor

We rise to inquire why the Mem
pins Avalanche and the Nashville
Union, both claiming to be Demo-
cratic papers, so strongly oppose
a Democratic caucus for the nomi-
nation of United States Senator?
Do they fear a caucus might nominate
Republican? Would it be possible
for a purely Democratic caucus to
select any other than a purely Dem
ocratic candidate? And If such a
candidate would certainly be chosen
by such a caucus what right have
purely Democratic Journals to oppose
the oaucus?-National Review
Col. Littleton might have known
that the Union and Avalanche were
not afraid of a Democratic caucus
elecing Republican to the Senate
OF the United States, without ask
ing the question He ought also to
have known that a democratic eau,
Gus would not select any other than
a pure democrat. The Col. ought
also to have known that the papers
mentioned were opposing a caucus
because they don't want "a pure
democrat" elected to the Senate.
They want a democrat elected who
ADVOCATES republican doctrines, such
for instance, as the editor of the
Union.

THE PENE ON FRAUD.

The annual report of the Commits
sioner Of Pensions shows that a
little over $64,0C0,00O was paid on
pensions during the fiscal year end
Ing June 30th 1886, which was con-
siderbly in excess of the amount
paid in any previous year. 1t far
Their shows that something over
s8OO,O0O,O00 had been paid out
to pensioners since 1851, and that
the drain upon the Treasury, for
this purpose, was growing greater
each year. What is to be the end
Of this business, no man knows.
More than 81 years have rolled by
since the war closed, and still the
pension list is INCREASING each year.
The taxpayers will have to send
men to Congress who bnve the
courage to protect their interests.
The average Congressman is afraid
to vote against any sort of pension
claim for fear of loosing votes, and
the conseq uence is that thous-
ands of pension claims are allowed
because ofcowardice upon the part
of the peoples representatives in
Congress. A stop should be put to
this wholesale squandering Of the
peoples money on men who have
concluded, after a quarter of CEN
tury, that some bodily ailment
was produced by exposure &c., dur
ing the war. Unless it is done,
and that speedily, the taxpayers of
the country will continue to be
loaded down with taxation and
every effort to reduce the burden
will fail.
The people should instruct their
! Congressman to vote against all
pension claims unless the case is
clearly meretorious one. Let our
congressman understand that the
taxpayers, as we'll as the pensioners
have votes, and that they will be
cast gainst them unless a stop is
put to this business, and i valuable
, point will be gained We need
2 more men in Congress who have the
courage to defy the soldier vote, and
who will guard the interests Of their
constituents, even though it may
less Ell their chances of reelection
' Public officials who are candidates
J all the while for reelection, and who
are looking out for themselves con-
e tinually, are worth nothing to their
constituents. We need men of con
e victions, and who have the courage
to do their dotY regardless of conse
quences.

Before the recent election Col.
LIttleton proclaimed Justify, that
the republicans would carry Tennes-
e. and placed ALI Taylor's majori-
t at from 10, 900 to $4,000. Since
that time the Col. has concluded
that he was slightly mistaken then,
but that they Will carry it in 1888
certain. Say, Col, hadn't you
better put it 1888, for fear your
reputation as a prophet may suffer
on account Of your frequent false
prophe ues?

'Mother's Friend

Not only shortens the time of
of labor and lessons the in
tensity OF pain, but, it great
ly diminishes the danger to
life of both mother and child
and leaves the mother in
condition highly favorable to
speedy recovery, and far less
liable to Flooding, Convul-
sions, and other alarming
symtoms incident to slow or
painful labor. It's wonder
ful efficacy in this respect
entities it to be called THE
NoTHER's FRIEND and to be
17nked as one Of the life
savl7g remedies of the nine
teenth century.
From the nature Of the
case, it will of course be I'M
derstood that we cannot pub
lish certificates concerning
this remedy without wounds
ing the delicacy OF the wri-
tiers. Yet we have hundreds
fsuch testimonials on file.

Falling Health.

Ten years ago my health began to fail,
I was troubled with distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre-
scribed by different physicians, but
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended mo to try Ayers
Sarsaparilla, which did, and L am now
as healthy and strong as ever. - Mrs.
E. L. Williams, Alexandria, Mimi.
Ihave used Ayers Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. l have
also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an
Alternative, and must say that honestly
believe it to be the best blood medicine
ever compounded.-W. F. Fowler, NJ. D.,
