and Tennessee Streets, Memphis.
This establishment is one of the lar
gest and most popular ofthe kind to

deservediy popular because of the ex-
cellent quality Of beer which they are

will in future use no Other-and il is
upon the merits of the article produc-

While in Memphis a short time
since we had the pleasure Of calling
on w. c. McGhee & Co., wholesale
and retail hardware dealers, No. 80
Union Street. This new and sub
stantial firm has begun business in
splendid style, surrounded by the
necessary cash capital to push their
interests before the public, possessed
of a full knowledge Of their branch
Of trade and by no means lacking in
energy to make their undertakings q
grand success. They are therefore
prepared so meet competition in their
line from any source, both in goods
and prices. TO know that Mr.. VIM.
c. McGhee, formerly of this place, is
at the head of affairs, is sufficient
guarantee to the trade Of this section
that all orders entrusted to his house
will be filled satisfactorily to the
purchaser. The gentlemen c0mpos-
ing this firm are young, industrious
and deserving, and we feel no hest
fancy in saying that they will receive
a liberal share of patronage from this
section.

Macauley says that the Puritans
were violently opposed to bear beat
ing, not because it inflicted pain upon
the bear, but because 1t afforded en-
joyment to the spectators. How many
of our prohibition Puritans are actu-
ated by a similar motive? They re-
ceive no pleasure in a social glass, and
are opposed to anybody else enjoying
it. What a country, and what a peo-
pie! and we had liked to have said,
VIII at a religion! Such, however, is
the craze Of the hour! The cry is the
saloon Is here we will take a drink,
which is hurtful to our pockets, toour
character, etc. We answer, the dry
goods houses are here with their
tempting wearing apparel, and the
grocery stores are here with their
tempting goodies" we will expend
money beyond the needs of nature.
Let US prohibit them all and fall back
up on copperas breeches and wool
hats, buttermilk and sage tea, and do
aw way with everything that we do not
need. Hurrah for prohibition! If it
will prohibit everything not abso-
lutely necessary. What NONSENSE!
says some Of our prohibition friends;
and so say We; but as much good
sense as there IL In trying to keep q
man from drinking who has the will
ant the money. This prohibition law
acts upon the poor, and of course they
are the sort upon whom the severity
of all laws fall.

Would 1t not be a good idea for
those Of our farmers who are interest
ed in diversified agriculture, cattle
raising, etc, to extend an invitation
to Gen. Stephen D. Lee, of the Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College, re-
questing him or some of his assistants
to deliver US q few lectures during the
months Of vacation. We feel satisfied
that such an invitation from our far
mers would be sufficient to induce
Gen. Lee to delegate some of his able
corps to tell US what they know, by
practical experience, about diversified
industries. At any rate it will do no
harm to extend such an invitation to
the gentlemen Of the College.

At their meeting on Monday last
our Board of Supervisors set apart
Thursday, the Sth day of July, next,
as the time for holding a Local OPP
ton election as provided for by the
last Legislature. Thus it will be seen
that within less than thirty days we
shall know whether or not our sa-
looms will be closed or whether they
will be allowed to continue a legiti-
mate business. Everybody, as far
as we have heard IN expression, are
satisfied that either party have plen-
ty of time before them in which to
do all the work they desire in the
way of ''lectiOneering." As for us
We would TO God the election were
not a week distant, for some of our
most worthy and respectable people,
have been and are now re-
| sorting to methods to carry out
the election for prohibition that
We never would have dreamed of. In
fact they have gone to extremes that
We fear in the future they will sadly
regret. AS for the GAZETTE, we are
in favor of giving to every man all
the privileges guaranteed him by the
constitution of our county. IF we
think of taking the whisky mans
business away from him, then we
are confronted with the question from
our own conscience, "What are we
! going to give him in return? Are
we going to support him, his wife
and his children?n Then our sense
of honesty tells US to let the whisky
man pursue his own a%vocation.
Without intending any insinuations
upon anyone-for we ~rerecognize p
number of wi most worthy citizens
who are OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES we to
take away fromthe Observation-Disclosures
which Justly belongs to him, without
returning him any compensation, we
would feel that we had simply robb-
ed him of just that much. While we
know some of our friends and pa
irons do not agree with US on this
| subject, we most cheerfully grant
them their right to an opinion and
! claim the same right for ourself, In
short, it has been said that great
| minds will differ y and we reckon the
| rule holds good in this instance. We
! will say more In the future.

broke her left arm just above the

When the brave and now immortal
Madam Roland was carried with a
hundred others, to face the sharp
edge Of the bloody guillotine, she
arose in the calmness of inspired
power, and turning towards the
twenty thousand crazy men and wo-
men, thirsting for her blood, sh. ut
tered that exclamation that will go
laundering down the ages to the end
of time like a cannon, shot fired from
the battlements of the skies, "Oh,
liberty what crimes are committed
in thy name!' Never was France
resting upon q firmer foundation
than the period that produced the
reign of terror, whose hellish enormi-
ties would have defied the powers of
a Homer, an Ovid, a Milton, or
Dantees. Her academies and
colleges were filled with students of
enquiry from all parts Of the world.
Her literature and science were in
the hands of earnest and great men.
Her priesthood were almost supreme
in authority, both in church and
state, for several of her ablest prime
ministers were taken from the cler-
gy; and yet, in six months her
preachers were killed or exiled, the
state was in the hands of a mob, and
