Col. J. ]. TURNER, OF Gallatin, is at
tempting to make the race for congaess
against Hon. Benton McMillin, the
present member from that district
Col. Turner was a gallant soldier in
the Confederacy and is q gentleman
highly esteemed by the people of Sum
ner, but they fail to see any cause for
his late announcement. The Blair
bill appears to be his platform and on it
he is cheered by the Banner, the Union
and the Avalanche, but opposed by the
Tennessean, sound Democratic pa
per published in Gallatin, the home Of
Col. Turner.
Ofcourse his is a hopeless effort, and
We regret to find him affiliating with
the scoflers and enemies of Democracy.
We regret especially to see an old SOL
der go wrong, because his example
in the past is often quoted in the at
tempt to justify his present errors, and
while Col. Turner may appeal with just
pride to Wade Hampton we think he
might also look to the fate of Longstreet
and Malone. Our old friend is earnest
and sincere and fights fairly and square
ly though surrounded by false friends
and suffering like honest, innocent old
Tray in the spelling book story. See.
ing him in company with the free
lances of the Avalanche, the Banner
and the Union, Democrats will come tc
the same conclusion with the old dutch
man that "Birds nit yrst der same
kind of fedders will go togedder mic
themselves sometimes"

YESTERDAY evening we interviewed
the celestial fabricator at the washee
house where the sign OF Sam Lung
swings out before the public. Again
the proprietor promised to write a
communication for the CRoNIcLE, and
laughingly went on to say "Me not

This eastern despot is quietly. but
evidently and palpably mahogany
colored fraud-an intense blonde whose
most solemn statements are utterly
incohesive, wanting in wool, liable to
shrink and, in the language OF King
Henry, altogether "too thin"
He repeated his promise, made last
week, that he "would writee somee let
ter for the paper and telle allie news,
and assuring us that nothing but being
"too much busee" kept him from join
ing the meeting during the Conference
we left HIM starching tubfullof linen
and as we stepped down out of his SHOP
onto the pavement we distinctly heard
him humming sweetly to himself
Caroline, Caroline,

THE Methodist Conference which
has been in session is this city since the
9th, closed on Tuesday, The 18th. The
presence OF so large number OF visitors
added much to to the social interest of
our good people, and we feel that in
every respect the Conference has done
good. Delegates and other visitors
alike appeared to be pleased and such
was the open hearted and open handed
hospitality extended by all our citizens
that we are assured Of the fact that none
went away dissatisfied.

The Household.

To KEEP CHEESE MOIST Many house,
keepers complain that their cheese be-
comes dry, and some use kind of bell
glass to put their cheese in. very
simple expedient will keep cheese in
the best condition. Take o linen cloth,
or cheese cloth. dip it in white wine,
squeeze excess of wine, and wrap up the
cheese in it. BY doing this the cheese
is not only kept moist, but its flavor
is improved.
PANADA, which is we'll adapted for the
diet of sick child is made by splitting
three Boston crackers; then lay them in
bowl, add one tablespoonful of white
sugar. large pinch of salt, and little
grated nutmeg. Pour over them enough
boiling water to cover them, set plate
over the bowl and then set the bowl in
the oven, if not to warm, for and hour.
This will sometimes be retained by
delicate stomach which rejects other
food
A PRETTY mat intended for the top of

edge is cut in sharp points; between
these points are placed soft little tas-
sells made of high colored crewel. The

with gay embroidery silks any pattern
which suits the fancy of the maker.
The old-fashioned cross.stitch, or some
modification of the feathers stitch, is
pretty.
To MAKE an excellent vermicelli
