Our NATIONAL Airs.

Americans have large assortment OF
natriotic songs from which to choose.
'Two of them have been transplanted from
FOREIGN soil, both "America" and yam
kee Doodle being adapted to airs familiar
in England before they were made popu-
lar IN this country. OF Yankee boo
dlen it is said that one Rimbault. physl--
clan living in London, wrote 'he doggerel
as it stood originally in ridicule OF Crom-
we'll. 1t is also affirmed that the alr was
sung as early as during the. reign OF
Queen Anue. The song was introduced
into America a year or two before Tue
Revolution, and the tories were wont TO
annex verses derisive OF the Colonial
militia, their inexperience and their 10.

song. as it stands at present, was flrst
sung at a Fourth of July celebration at
Boston. in 1885, Columbia, the Gem OF

of Thomas Becker, an English musician
who taught music in Philadelphia. The
song is nearly hundred years old. An
autograph copy of Hail Columbiai, was
exhibited at the Centennial Exposition.

given musical setting by German

Star makes a very forcible remark,
the question of a Constitutional Con-
vention being now agitated in that
State. The Star says:
at isproper that young men should
take the lead in this matter. This
periodical consultation of the people
as to their readiness to continue the
existing organic law is necessary to
prevent the hands of the present gen.
eratian from being unduly tied by the
generations that have passed away"
Let the press of Tennessee speak
out on this question, and let the
young men of the State come to the
front in the discussion.

A. Hr STEPHENS COUSIN.

/ am first cousin of the late Ex-Governor
Alexander ii. Stephens, and have been pos.
tai clerk ON different railroads since 1868.
For ten years have been sufferer from a
cancer on nay face, which grew worse until
the discharge of matter became profuse and
very offensive. l became thoroughly dis.
gusted with blood purifiers and pronounced
them humbugs, as / had tried many without
relief.
Finally was induced to use b. B. B.,
which was about the LIST of February, and
continued its use until the latter part of
April. The offensive discharge decreased
at once and the hardness around the cancer
disappeared. Itimproved my general health
and rapidly gained flesh and strength.
The discharge gradually decreased and the
cancer became less and less in size until
nothing remains except scar to tell the
tale of a once dangerous cancer. All who
have seen me since | have commenced the
use of B. B. B. bear testimony of my great
improvement, and the scar on my face
shows that it cured the cancer. find that
B. B. B. comes squarely up to what it is re-
commended, and cannot say too much in
praise of this wonderful medicine. l have
tried them all, but B. B. B. stands at the top
as blood purifier.
The above is copied from the Athnes
| (Ga.) Banner Watchman, being the voluntary
language of Mr.. James A. Greer, which Ed.
tor CAN'T indorses:
"Mr. Greer is an honest, upright citizen
of Athens, who had bad cancer, and his
numerous friends thought that he could not
live very long, as the cancer was gradually
sapping the foundation of his constitution
but now looks well and hearty"

THAT little squable which origina-
ted in the Davidson County Demo-
cratic Convention a couple of weeks
ago, is becoming quite interesting.
A lively fight has been precipitated
in the Davidson county Democracy,
and from the Unions version of the
trouble its result will effect the whole
State, and the contest will not be con-
fined to Davidson county. The fol-
lowing paragraph, clipped from an
editorial in Wednesdays Union,
gives little insight to the situation
of things down there:
at has transpired that the liquor
dealers have an organization in the
state and are making desperate eff
fort to capture the state senate by
electing twelve men who will vote
against submitting the constitutional
amendment. The purpose is no Sc
cret here, and the work was boldly
inaugurated in the county convention,
there being in that body about thirty
five members who took a stand that
the state democratic platform on the
question of submission should not be
respected. After this the nomination
for the senate of the most active and
aggressive and deeply interested
whiskey man in this city leaves not 6
doubt in the minds of the thinking
people as to what he will do if elect
