s'se,s ssdicatiss Of gour increasing years.
This language is toe plain to be mis-
understood tho reference being in
plain words 10 increasing years. and
h,ying no reference e sry ether PRO
motion nowlhan to that Of Governor Of
Tennessee.
BY what authority does The Tobacco
Leaf make the insinuation? Has the
editor any information on which to
b,se his conclusion? Has Gen. Qnarles
or his friends made any pledges to the
people oil this or any other county as to
the action Of the next LegislatureY Has
the editor of the Tobacco Leaf better
means OF learning in advance than any
other person in this county, and has
Gen. Quarles authorized any such in
timation as that contained in the Leaf ?
The people OF this county know Gen.
Quarles too well to believe for a single
instant that he ever intimated to Col.
Taylor, either privately or publicly
anything in regard to the action Of the
next Legislature OF which Gen. Quarles
Will bea member. The insinuation Of
the Tobacco Leaf editor is equally un-
Just to Col. Taylor, because it intimates
the crime OF bargain and intrigue" a
charge which some political enemy
made against Henry Clay, charge that
followed him to the grave.
We have no personal acquaintance
with Col. Robert Taylor, butt is grant
ed, even by his political enemies, that
he is gentleman above suspicion, and
that his aspiration is to be elected Gov
ernor of Tennessee. Further than this
1t is safe tosay no man Knows, and
no man has the moral right through
the public press to set afloat an un-
founded intimation Of bargain and
intrigue" against two OF the best citizens
of Tennessee.
Gen. Quarles as Senator and both OF
the representatives Of Montgomery
county to the next Legislature are in
structed to vote for Hon. John F.
House for United States Senator, and
we have full faith in their integrity.
Therefore we are at aloss to find any
reason for the intimation contained in
the Leaf, We can only place the most
charitable construction upon its Ian
guage by hoping that the writer did
not stop to think of the injury his
words might do to one OF our most
generous hearted citizens whose per-
sonal feelings have ever been most
kindly manifested to the editor OF the
Tobacco Leaf.
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1886-10-30
Col. Ben F. Cockrill.

This gentleman, a distinguished citi-
zen of Davidson county, attended the
meeting of the Montgomery Farmers
ASSOCIATION in this city on the 2Sth
inst, and by invitation delivered an adj
dress full of information and wise sug-
gestions. He had represented Tennes-
see in the recent National Agricultural
Congress in st. Paul, Minnesota.
/ Col. Cockrll stated that the number
OF people engaged in agriculture was
double the number engaged in all other
occupations in the United States. The
Congress had received marked respect
in the northwest from Governors OF
States and Mayors Of cities, and lead
ing Republican paper in Minnesota
had declared that the brain of the
South was enlisted in the Farmers
cause and it would yet revolutionize the
great political parties.
lie spoke OF our advantages in Ten
nessee-rich and healthy climate-in
contrast with the wind-beaten prairies
of the West, and the lowlands of Hol-
land where rent of $50 per acre is
charged. He said the great burden on
agriculture was the freight charges
that the cry of overproluction was
fallacy when, out OF the one hundre d
million inhabitants of the world, ten
millions starve and die each year. He
approves Senator Regan's bill, and
claims that American ships ought to
transport American productions. He
wanted more appropriations given to
the farmers who pay the taxes, and
stated that while twenty millions were
appropriated for hunting Indians only
the pitiful sum of $4,000 was given
by the Government to promote the in
terest of the farmers. Napoleon's
grand sEccess with three-fourths of the
French people engaged as soldiers and
therefore only one-feurth of the people
employed in agricultural showed what
Al great mind could perform in wisely
directing the agricultural interests OF
any people.
{, He cited the case OF Brazil, the En-
peror of which, Dom Pedro, out. of. a
national reveHue OF only forty millions
appropriates ten millions yearly tothe
advancement of agriculture. Col.
Cockrill advocates intelligent farming
and said that an addition of three grains
to each head Of. wheat would educate
every child in Tennessee. He believed
the blood horse was Developed from the
pony-though he could NOT go qs far as
Mr.. Darwin who believed the-iiorse was
evoIuted from the fox-and th3tptlnl,
change as much as animals. and ii intel
ligent care was l4ken7 those things,
peace, prosperity Stsd .conssryatism
would all follow, ASST kes never occur
in the agricplturat s5sish: -
. He thought the signal service should
Stshded and all trains should carry
weather warnings, and he also ad-
yised the formation OF lecture system
:

or travelling schools to give practical in
formation to all farmers.
Col. Cockrill iavors legislation to
prevent dealing in futures" by which
the farmer is always injured. He elo-
quently and positively denounced the
tariff Of 40 per cent--and though the
largest wool-grower in Tennessee-he
declared that with the rest Of it the tariff
on wool "must co." as well as that en-
sugar and rice.
On the conclusion OF his address, on
motion Of DR.. MI. Northington, vote
OF thanks and "a hearty endorsement was
given Col. Cockrill.

Speaking at Hampton's.

Joseph H. Corban and r. H. Bur
ney, Democratic nominees to represent
Montgomery county in the next Legis-
lature, addressed good audience at
Hampton Station in District No. on
Tuesday, Goth instant. FINS Ewing
Esq. introduced Mr.. Corban who in
his speech confined himself to State
questions such as he will be called to
act upon as member OF the Legisla-
ture.
Though not trained speaker, he dis-
cussed those questions in such man
ner as clearly showed him possessed OF
logical mind well stored with facts.
He favored the Penitentiary lease until
its legal expiration, and then anything
better if it could be found, but was OPP
posed to keeping convicts idle and tax
ing honest labor to support them.
He would, like good Democrat, sub
NIT the question of Prohibition--or
any onther question-to the people,
and then vote as he pleased. He favor
ed amending the assessment laws.
He is opposed to the Blair bill or any
other form of Federal interference in
our State affairs. He was listened to
with marked attention for he had an
audience of intelligent farmers and his
speech was one Of facts which will be
remembered.
r. III. Burney Esq, then addressed
the people. He was glad to meet so
many, and it was healthy sign to see
the voters taking such interest--local
differences were all settled and Dem
ocrats were not united against the COM
mon enemy. He urged every man to
do his duty and vote and work on cleo
ton day. He would vote to continue
the Penitentiary lease system-because
it brings in revenue, and he knew Of
no other that would produce such re-
sults-convicts must not be supported
in idlenesss-- no difference where
they work they to some extent compete
with honest labor. lie believed in the
right of the people to amend the consti-
tution--and then vote on the question
as be pleased. He favored an improve
ment OF the assessment law so as to
reach property now over looked. He
was also in favor OF amending the land
lords lien law so as to apply to crop
pers. He said of the Blair bill was not
State issue, and should not divide
Democrats in this canvass, but that he
was at all times opposed to Federal in
reference to our schools. The Repub-
lican idea would lead to the Govern
ment assuming guardianship-denying
the capacity of the people for self-gov-
eminent, and tending to the creation
of monopolies and Legislation for one.
class at the expense OF another and en-
couring the growth of a civil service
system the power of which was a
menace to the people at the ballot box.
Mr.. Barney strongly advocated local
self-goyernment, and simple laws to
protect property and prevent crime, us
no people were ever made rich, great
or moral by mere Statutory enact
ments, but by their own industry aud
frugality. His entire speech, OF which
this is only a synopsis, was received
with marked attention.

A Book-Agent's Trick.

A friend of mine was telling me the
other day of some of the sharp tricks
which book-agents play IN order to
gain entrance to private houses for the
purpose of exhibiting their wares.
The favorite scheme at present seems
to be the following: The agent arms
himself with list of some of the prom
inent residences, with their occupants,
and package of calling-caris execu-
ted in the most fashionable style. He
then starts out to make his ''calls. "
He stops at the house of Mr.. A., rings
the bell, and politely requests the ser
want to be kind enough to hand his
card to Mrs. A. The servant naturally
supposes him to be fashionable caller.
