Section 27O of the law in reference
to the assessment of taxes, (Revised
Statutes,) reads as follows:
All property shall be valued toT
taxation at its true value in money,
which, in all cases not specially pro,
vided for By law, shall be held to be
as follows, to wit: For personal prop
erty, the usual selling price on the
usual terms Of similar property at
administrators or executors sales, at
the place where the return is made;
and for real property, the usual sell
ing price on the usual terms Of SINH
lar property at sales for partition
under the order of the court, at tie
place where the return is to be made.
II there is no usual selling price,
then at what is honestly believed
could be obtained for the same at a
fair sale under the conditions above
mentioned,
1t shall be the duty Of each owner
of lands, and of any new structures
thereon which shall not have been
appraised for taxation, to list the
same for taxation with the County
Auditor of the County in which they
may be situated, on or before the
twentieth day Of February next after
the same shall become subject 10
taxation.
All returns for taxation must be
filed with the Auditor not later than
February Goth, 1896, as after that
date the law requires the addition OF
so per cent. to the last years return.
Poll tax as we'll as property must be
returned.

4 Life Saved.

Jamestown, Tenn, October Is, 1891.
My daughter tried physicians and
nearly all remedies for Female irreg-
ularities, but received no relief or
benefit whatever. We had neary
dcspaired of her recovery when we
were induced by our postmaster,
Mr.. A. A. Gooding, to try Gerstle's
Female Panacea, and after using four
bottles she was entirely cured, for
which I feel it my duty to let it be
known to the world and suffering
humanity, for I believe she owes her
life to the Panacea.

DEMANDS OF slLvERITEs.
They ASK More For Silver Than Has Ever
Been Granted to Gold

They ASK More For Silver Than Has Ever
Been Granted to Gold.
One of the claims made by the adyo-
Gates Of silver is that the government
should treat both metals alike. How
does the government treat gold? For
every 23.2 grains Of pure bullion de-
posted in the mint the owner receives
a gold dollar weighing 1873 grains and
nine-tenths fine. The government stamp
adds nothing to the value of the metal
1t simply certifes to that value and
puts the metal in q form convenient for
use. Everywhere in the world gold thus
coined is worth 81. If you go to Eu-
rope, the little piece of gold is worth
81. If your house burns down, the little
lump Of gold that was worth 81 pre-
vious to the fire will be worth 81 at any
jewelers. anywhere.
The advocates of free silver do not
want silver treated this way. Oh, mol
They ask for more. They ask that the
owner Of silver bullion be permitted to
take it to the mint and have the govern
ment stamp 3711 grains, with the
necessary alloy, as dollar of equal
legal tender with the gold dollar when
today the value of the bullion in the
dollar is worth only So cents. They ask
that the government stamp, its fiat, to
the extent Of AZ cents, shall be put on
every 50 cents worth of silver they take
to the mint. Say the house burns again
The piece Of silver worth 81 the night
before because of the stamp only is only
worth 50 cents when taken to the jew
eler.
Don't you see that the silver people
are asking more from the government
for silver than was ever granted by any
government in the world for gold? One
metal stamped 81 because of its value
the world over; the other stamped
81, and worth but So cents anywhere.
If we are to have fiat money, why not
have it all fiat, and not AZ cents fiat?
If we are to have fiat money, let it be
paper. But the silver people claim that
If the government passes a free coinage
Of silver bill silver will immediate
" jump i'll price from now being worth
53 cents for SIX grains to 100 cents
for the same amount. Do you believe
it? Some people are almost willing to
believe that the moon is made Of green
cheese. Humboldt (Tenn. Messenger.

Yankee Doodle. Z

From tie time Yankee boy dons
his first pair of trousers and can
shove his hands into his pockets he
begins to whistle yankee Doodle
He whistles itwhen be goes to school,
and later in his college days the old
tune is called upon as an outlet for
the exuberance which naturally fol-
lows some college victory. The
merry strains may be used to ex-
press his feelings when he has been
accepted by his best girl, and again
he teaches it to his boys as his father
taught it to him.
Yet it is no exaggeration to say
that not one out of a hundred YAM
kee boys can tell where the song
originated, and should he even apply
to his father for the information on
the subject it is safe to say that he
would be dismissed with the evasiye
and general statement that it was
written during the Revolution. In
the general sense the statement
would be correct, but again the aver
age Yankee boy is not satisfied with
only a general idea. So let the boy
read this and learn whence came the
song which is regarded as the nation
al anthem of Yankeeland all over
the world.
Just before the battle of Long
Island General George. Washington
applied to the continental congress
for more troops, and among those
sent him was Colonel Smallwood's
brigade of Maryland infantry. They
were only 200 strong, but what they
lacked 10 numbers they made up in
courage. Added to their reputation
for bravery, they were conspicuous
by reason of their particularly bright
uniforms, which were copied after
those of a regiment of the private
| guard Of the king of Italy. Red,
gold, green aud blue were so inter-
mingled that the other soldiers in
! palmer dress dubbed them the
@Macaronis.' Then a wag of the
Long Island camp took the music of
a German drinking song and wrote
the doggerel;
Yankee Doodle came to town riding on
pony.
He stuck feather in his cap and called
him Macaroni.
The Macaroni referred to must
have been one OF Colonel Smallwood's
brigade, which later took part in the
campaign which ended in the sur
render of CORVALLIS at Yorktown,
Va, and fought with such daring
bravery that, when the articles Of
pesce were signed between this coun-
try and England and they went to
their homes in and around Balti-
more, only Is Macaronis remained
out OF the brigade of 200.
And while very few if any histor-
les of the United States record the
brave deed of the Macaronis they
will forever be imm ortalized in the
song which was written as jest at
their expense, and which is now
whistled artl snng from Maine to
California and from Hongkong to
London.-Indianapoiis Sentinel.
