Just SO.

The hard times experienced by
farmers ARE not attributable to
Shortage Of crops, for the cry
SUmes from all sections, whether
IL be III the cotton belt or Id the
grain growing regions. The com.
plant is the SAME. The farmer
has to sell the bulk of wheat he
raises to pay usurious interest on
his Indebtedness and exOrbitant
profits Oh what he buys, and live
on the small remnant of his pro-
ducts that h6 cannot sell. The
usurer and the creditor gets the
first frtiits Of the soil. The CAPT
talist, the inonopOlists and the
bondhOlders, say the country is
prosperous and growing rich, but
with the farmer it is hard times

Crops.

The following from Maj. Bates
crop report for last week isencour-
aging though it does not apply to
our section as we have had Meth
er frost nor cOpious showers.
"The drouth, which was becom-
ing serious in many sections OF
the State at the close of the last
report, was broken by cOpious
showers, which fell throughout
the State. Reports indicate that
the percentage of condition have
been greatly raised and that all
the crops affected by the drouth
have started with new life of
vigorous growth. In most parts
of the State a.killing frost is re-
ported Oh the 10Th, injuring young
and tender crops and vegetables,
notably, potatoes, beans and to-
bacco plants, but. fortunately, no
wheat is reported injured, and
very little fruit. Wheat is head
ing out well and an abundant lar-
vest is near at hand. Corn, oats,
clover and the grains are imprOy-
ing rapidly since the rains, but as
an offset to this, in many counties,
army worms are reported doing
great damage.

Literary Notes.
A Great Popular CyclOpedia.

The third volume of Alden's Manifold Cy-
clopedia, a marvel Of condensed information,
covers the alphabet between the titles Artem-
isa and Baptisia. There seems TO DO little
doubt that il will prove to be the great Cyclic
pcdia for the next score of years at least
The embodiment, OF an Unabridged Dic,ion.
airy Of Language and complete Cyclopedta
Of Universal knowledge in one work, in large
type, with thousands OF illustrations. and all
for price less than peoble have been used
to paying for Dictionary alone, is not only
novel in plan, but to the ordinary hook-bny-
er the fact is hardly less than astounding
Its accomplishment will certainly be credita-
bic to Aldens Liffray Revolution.
As to the quality Of the work, both literary
and mechanical, any common-sense reader is
capable Of Judging. The volumes received
call and examine) are certainly deserving OF
the unstinted praise which they seem to be
receiving. The venerable Prof. Day, Of Yale
College, speaks Of thh work in the following
emphatic terms: "The book in all respects
more than answers my expectations. 1t is a
very neat volume, of 4 form convenient for
use, firmly bound, Of large, clear type, with
contents Of just that general character which
the popular reader requires-comprehensive,
accurate and compact. Its marvelously low
cost makes it prize eagerly to be sought in
every intelligence-loving household"

B. A. ENLOE
Endorsed by the Wheel
Organ.

The State Wheel, published at
Jackson, the home of Representa-
tive Enloe, has these good words
to say of him:
This gentleman is announced in
this issue of our paper for re-elec.
ton to the Congress of the United
States. We gave notice when he
left to take his seat in that body
that we would keep a close watch
over hi s actions and when he
made a step in the wrong direc-
ton we would sound the alarm to
the people of the 9Th Congression-
al district. He went under
pledges to certain reforms and
this being an agricultural district,
to endeavOr to obtain measures
that would afford relief to the
farmers. He has faithfully kept
every promise and has made the
most earnest efforts to show that
he was sincere in his pledges and
was in hearty sympathy with his
toiling constituents. He introduce
ed a bill to refund the uncOnstitu-
tional cotton tax aggregating $685.
100000 wrung from the hands OF
the farmers and has also bill to
prevent gambling in futures in ag,
ricultural products. These two
bills have invited more newspa-
per comment and are regarded
with more interest than any that
have been introduced in Congress
since the war, while they have
given Mr.. Enloe a national fame
of which every Tennessean should
be proud and which is coveted by
many who had many years of ex
perience in National legislation
He is a young man, serving his
first term, yet it will be seen from
the testimonial of his colleagues
published elsewhere in these col
umns, that he welded a great in
fuence in Congress and has &C
quired a popularity that places
him in the lead of the Tennessee
delegation. He is an indefatiga
BILE worker and man of untirins
energy and we feel assured tina
the record he has made will b
met with an unqualified endorse
ment by the voters of the eight
district at the ballot box in No
vember.

State Cadetship.

will hold examination in Sa-
vannah, on Saturday, June 10th
and Saturday July l4th, for cadet
ship appointments to University
of Tennessee. Applicants must
be at least 10 years of age; must
show a good moral character, and
be prepared to pass an examina-
ton in arithmetic, English gram
mar and composition, geography
and United States history. All
who pass can receive an appoint
ment, with free tuition, good for
FIVE years. With such All appoint
ment the total necessary expences
of a cadet at the University are
only about $3.50 per session of ten
months, which is little more than
it would cost him to stay at home.
Many opportunities are offered
young men at the University to
earn something, by which they
can futher reduce their expenses.
This is an unsurpassed opportu-
nifty for young men to get splendid
education. 1t will not be so easy
after this year to get an appoint
ment, as the University will be
filed up.
For particulars of courses of
study address the president, DIR.
Charles w. Dabney, Jr., Knoxville

Examinations will be made at
my office in the court house.

Poor Jake.


LowRYvILLE TENN, May II, 1873
Ny DEAR MR.. HEFNER,
see published in the Clifton
Times, that my friend Jake Young
of Jacksonville Tenn, has been
selected as one of the agents for
Capt. Geo. Browns New Book
"Every Man His Own Liar" This
is reflection on my old friend
that l think deserves correction.
/ will state why 1 think the selec.
ton was made. Last January
you remember was visited by a
very severe sleet that lay on the
ground for long time; in the time
of it Jake says man caught
seventeen deer and forty tur-
keys in one hollow near Johnson
vile. l think the mistake is that
there was only thirty.nine of the
turkeys, the deer report is all
right although the hides have not
been brought up yet, and Capt.
Brown never give any credit for
/ the following facts. 1st. The ex'
tent of the sleet. 2nd. That the
man had short nails in his shoes
Bird. That Jake himself was the
hunter and was too modest to sc
state it. With this explanation
think Jake ought to be released
from the agency, and a man oil
two in our neighborhood substitu
ted. s. j. KENDALL.
