Why One countryis Crowded with Pau
psrs and Another Not.
A Limestone correspondent of the
Knoxville carOaicle puts it thus in a re-
cent number OF that paper;
Iquote from the G~reeneville Bulletin
Of April 9th:
Greene county is much larger than
Sullivan, but Sullivan pays largely more
to her paupers than Greene does"
/ have noticed this, or the same sub
stance In democratic papers heretofore
and If | mistake not | read 1t in the form
Of an inquify, as TO why such was the
case. 1t occurs to me that any person of
sufficient Intelligence to run a newspaper
should, by q little reflection, know the
cause. Greene county sent a great many
more troops to the United States army
than to the army Of the rebellion. Sulli-
van county furnished as many more to
the army OF the rebellion in proportion ia
her population as Greene did to the Union
army. The disabled union soldiers OF
Greene are drawing pensions from the
government, while the confederate sol
diers of Sullivan who were disabled in the
war are rapidly increasing the number Of
paupers (made by the war; as they adj
vance in years. In 1861 Greene county
listened to the good advice and needed
the warning of Andrew Johnson, Will
liam G.. BrowElow, Thomas A. r. Nelson
and others, whilst q few fire eaters in Sui
livan, by mob violence. prevented Andrew
johnson from visiting them to tell then
the truth.
Mr., johnson, then a member of tn,
United States Senate, wanted to tell hi
constituents in Sullivan county that thu
United States Senate was southern o.
democratic in sentiment and was the con
trolling power Of the government, could
prevent any law they did not want; coult
refuse TO confirm any presidential ap
pointment that did not suit them. Blu
the fire eaters bulldozed these Sullivan
county meninto following Isham G., WHIT
is to-day holding a twelve years term il
the best office the State affords. while hi
Sullivan county followers are, in to,
many instances, becoming paupers. How
much longer will It take these people t,

IT is reported that in some parts Of
Wisconsin tramps are SO numerous, and
crimes have been SO frequent, that vigi-
lance committees have been organized to
protect life and property. But should
the marauders be called cramps or
banditti? The honest workman who Is
thrown out of employment, and who il,
compelled to go from place to place in
search for opportunity to labor, ought
never to be insulted by any use of words
which confound him with the outcasts
and outlaws who refuse to work and who
try to steal a living.

ATTORNEY

The nomination of H. T. Campbell of
Hancock for Attorney General of this cir
cult meets the approval of the republicans
throughout the circuit. The lower coun
ties where he is best known, regard his
nomination as q compliment to them, and
are sending assurances to the upper count
ies, that a solid vote will be given the
the whole ticket in August and Novem.
Der.
Mr.. Campbell is thoroughly qualified
for the position, and it is confidently be
lieved by those who are acquainted with
him best, that he will make one of the
most efficient prosecuting officers, the
people have ever had in this circuit.
Hancock county deserved this recogni-
ton at the hands of the republican party
on account of the fidelity and regularity
with which the masses of that county
have supported the candidates from oihor
counties since the war.
Every republican in the circuit should
see TO it that the name of II. T. Campbell
is on his ticket in August, and he will be
elected as certainly as that the election
occurs.
We congratulate him over the prospect,
and notify him to arrange his private
business so he can enter on duty the first
Of September next.
An Extraordinary Spoil of Weather.
Lately both the old world and the new
have experienced extraordinary, unex-
pected and direful weather. The cyclone
has reassertcd itself much earlier than
usual in the year, in some quarters moi
before visited and with great violence. A
few days ago Kansas City was the victim,
Now 1t is Xenia. In both instances the
loss Of life and property was very seri,
GUS. Only less calamitous have been TIL,
storms that have ragged in Indiana an(
Illinois. Wind. rain, hail, lightning
have between them wrought great dam
age. Bridges have been washed away
buildings overthrown, crops injured.
Several persons have been killed by
lightning. kilograms from Pittsbure
and Cleyeland report big storms at thos,
points. The cable brings word of a ter
rible hurricane in Spain. In Madrid
alone seventy persons are said to have
been killed and 200 wounded. And there
is reason to apprehcnd that the destruc-
ton wrought in the provinces was pro
portionately large.
Such, in brief, is the sort OF weather b,
which ''the merry month of May ha
celebrated her return of the year.

BY A. NJ. METTETAL, JoNEsBoRo, TENN.
There's old Tom Green, whom you all
must know,
Has been on q bust for a week or so.
His legs are groggy, and his eyes are red,
And his old hat rests on the side of his
head.
His hands in his pockets, chin on his
breast,
lie leans on the fence his knees to rest;
And he sings this song in tones quite sad,
For his money is gone and his credit is
bad.
Moras-Tbrec sheets in the wind,
Bnt the sails are dry;
Pass the bottle round, boys,
Pour out the rye.
His old creaky cart, and old blind Bill,
Must stand in the street till he gets his fill
Of good old rye, and Jamaica gin,
Of guzzler's Jokes, and drunkard's din.
Three drinks for a quarter, or one for q
dime;
He pays for three, drinks one at a time;
Thus saves his money, and it is his boast,
AS he drains his glass and sings his
toast.
His hut is crazy and the roof is old,
The door is~irgnc, and the hearth is cold
No chairs Il 10 room no quilt on the bed,
No coal in'fE bp, no wood in the shed.
His wife at times has no food to eat,
No clothes on her back, no shoes on her
feet;
She stands at the wash.tub all day long,
While his children beg, yet he sings his
song.
If saloons were closed to such as he,
Who oft are seen on a drunken spree;
If the Devils Broth was nowhere sold
No starving child would beg in the cold.
Then men Of worth fear not the frown,
But rise in your strength and vote il
down.
Close up the rum-hole, break up the
ring
Shout death to the still-worm," and NJ
more we'll sing.

Bile, according to Webster, is "a vel
