of those present. Some assert that
Mr.. Jones IS the most pOweSHl ex-
pOnent of the gospel OH earth; that
his life Is an example of all that is
pure and good; that he seeks alone
to elevate mankind, and points to
the narrow path through which an en- :
trance can be affected into the king
dom of heaven in q maner never be-
fore equaed by mortal man in other
words, he is one OF the Lords am
olnted, loaned to earth to lead lis to
a home in heaven. Others claim
that he is man who panders to the
lowest element of human nature; that
he is indecent and ungentlemanly in
his remarks; that he is a reformed
Oh unkard in whom no confidence is
TO be placed; that his sole motive is
to make money; that he is a disgrace
and drawback to the cause of relig~
ion, and does more harm than good.
1t is natural for people to differ In
opinion. One thing is very certain,
Sam Jones does not compel you to
listen to him; if YOU dislike lis style

1.-THE editor, in proportion to his
means, does more for his country than
ten other men; he ought 10 be sup
ported. not because you like him or
his writings, or not support him be-
cause you dislike him and disagree
with his writings, but all should sup
port local paper because it is the
best investment a community can
make; 1t may not be brilliantly edited
or crowded with thought, but fnan~
clalIy it is more benefit to the people
than the teacher or the preacher.
Understand me, | do not say morally
or Intellectually, but financially; and
yet on the moral question you will
find most of the local papers on the
right side. To day the editors of the
home papers do m ore for the least
money than any men on earth. -
Gov. Frar els, OF Missouri.
About Two months ago we pub
llshed an account of the assassination
of Josh Chapman, colored, at his
home near Toone. The affair WAS
shrOuded in mystery, so much so that
there was no clue whatever as to
who committed the dastardIy deed.
But in this instance it seems that the
old adage murder will OUT has
been verified. On Thursday of last
week Tom Brown and Z. D. Cooper,
both colored, we're arrested on the
charge of killing Cha pman. They
were tried before w. H. Tate Esq. and
we're by him committed to Jail. We
do not know the nature of the evidence
against the accused, but it is certain
ly considered strong and onvincing
by the trial magistrate, as he decided
that it is not bailabIe case.
The BULLETIN is in receipt of a
copy of the Chattanooga Daily Rebel,
dated June 81. 1869. The paper is
OF considerable interest, especially to
Tennesseeans, from the fact that it
contains among other things, the pro.
ceedings of the Stale Convention
held at Winchester, June II. 1868,
to nominate candidates for Governor
and for representatives in the Con-
federate Congress. This convention
was composed of delegates chosen by
the different counties of the State.
Hardeman was represented by Capt.
w. Alex Thompson, Lieut.. IL. &.

GRATIS NEWSPAPER WORK.

Newspaper men are long suffer-
ing tribe. Next to preachers, they
are more imposed upon than any
other class. What man of them cam
not vouch for the truth of this state
ment?
They are expected to spend their
own time and pay the printers for
working up all sorts of public enter.
prlses without renumera ton, and in
many cases without thanks.
+ 1t is supposed that it is the duty of
newspapers to serve the pu bile gratis
in such affairs, and it is to a certain
extent, but few people realize how
much more than their share the news
paper men are called upon to contrib.
ute.
Take, for example, an entertain
ment to be given for some benevolent
object. The newspaper prints a good
notice of it, as matter of news in
which the public is interested, Its
duty to its readers is then discharged,
but in order to make the entertain
meDt success the paper is called
upon to write the event up time and
again. Perhaps it prints, first and
last, two or three columns to boom
the undertaking.
Taking into account the pay for re.
pOrters, editors, printers, pressmen,
carriers, paper, ink and other ex-
penses, it will probably cost the paper
S25 or $50. The lawyers, doctors,
merchants and people of other caIlings
come along on the evening of the
entertainment and pay the admission
price of 20 cents or dollar each, are
appIauded for the liberal patronage
and are supposed to have done equal
ly az much or more than the editor.
If the trouble ended here it would
not be so bad, tor the paper would
at least have the satisfaction of know
ing that it had acted patriotic or
charitable part, but this is only a por.
ton of the thank-you work that is
put upon it.
People are constantly wanting free
private advertisements. Editors are
flooded with cards of thanks, resolu-
tons of respect, obituary notices,
spring poetry and other illusions,
generally of no earthly interest to
their readers, and freq uenuy couched
in most execrabIe Eng lish. This APP
plies more particularly to the weekly
than the city daiIies.
So frequent and intolerable has it
become in North Carolina, that the
Press Association OF that State re,
solved that no more such matter
should be published, except at the
rate Of cents per line.
The newspapers always have been
and always will be willing to do more
than their share in all public enter
prises, but people should realize the
exteOt OF their gratis work and give
them credit for it.-Knoxville Senti-
mel.

The jury Suited the Iawver-

A Chicago attorney, somewhat noted
for his sharp practice, sent his client one
day to watch the case. Word came to
him that his case was next on the docket,
and he hurried over to find the opposing
counsel already beginning. In vain he
looked for his client. He was nowhere
to be seen. In vain he asked for della
but the court told him that the careless
ness of client would not allow such a
thing. At last he glanced into the Jury
box and saw his client there.
The stupid man had thought he heard
his name called and had marched in
with the rest. The opposing counsel was
so anxious to hurry the case along that
he neglected to examine the jury. See
ing the thing was in his own hands, the
Chicago attorney turned to the court.

National Curcau of Health.

The move Of the New York Academy
of Medicine for the establishment Of 8
national bureau of health is matter of
more than ordinary interest and impor-
lance.
The view taken by this representative
medical body Of the metropolis is that
the public health is national affair, to
be dealt with by the nation rather than
the several states. and matter which
calls for the services of physicians rather
than politicians.
This view has been embodied in bill
which takes quarantine entirely out of
state control and politics and vests it in
federal administrative board of medic
al men. The bill is to be presented to
congress when it next meets, and its
enactment will be urged, not only by the
academy of this city, but also by coop
Grating medical societies throughout the
country.
Menaced as the nation may be at any
time by cholera or some other epidemic,
it would seem to be but the part of COM
mon prudence to have the most efficient
, and effective quarantine system that can
be devised. 1t cannot be claimed with
any force that we have such system
now. The law passed last winter was a
compromise. The quarantine established
by it is hybrid affair.-New York Her
