MOralizing in Tennessee.

We find in late number of the
Nashville American these admirable
moral reflections:
"To the shame and disgrace of Ten.
nessee, State whose record for near
100 years has been for the maintenance
OF law, there has now arisen an open
and unblushing effort to trample on
the law and to condone violations Of
the same. Men who have heretofore
held themselves before the people as
the advocates of law and order are now
preaching anarchistic doctrines, and
newspapers that have posed as the
supporters of uprightness and the op.
ponents of every kind of fraud arc now
found advising the people to disobey
the law. The present shame of Ten.
nessee is caused by violators of plain
laws and those who indorse such vic
lations.n
Is it possible our esteemed contem.
porary here refers to the Evaus-Turney
affair and is at last able to perceive the
enormity to which the Tennessee Demo

"That is my way Of swearing, !" an
swered Train; "and it is no more non.
sensical>and farless blasphemous than

There was no more swearing during
the journey. The Christian describes
another lesson given to a swearing
student;
A late distinguished president of one
of our western colleges was one day
walking near the college, with his
slow and noiseless steps, when youth,
net observing his approach, while en-.
gagged in cutting wood, began to swear
profanely in his vexation.
The doctor stepped up and said
"Give me the AK aud then quietly
chopped the stick of wood. Returning
the ak to the young man, be said in
his peculiar manner: "You see now

She Caught Fish.

A correspondent in st. Helena sends
this fish story: "Some weeks ago a
party of seven, including myself, were
enjoying an outing on Deer Creek, in
Wasco County, Oregon, about eight
miles from The Dalles. While there
we thought we would show the natives
how to fish. My friend, ex-Marshal
Brennard of Scio in just hours and
10 minutes caught 179 trout, weighing
203 pounds. We took the fish into
town and Dragged not little about
our wonderful catch. To our great
surprise the old inhabitants didn t share
in our enthusiasm and pityingly said,
Boys, 60 up to the narrows and learn
how to catch fish,
"Well, up to the narrows we went,
and the sight which met our eyes
will never forget, and yet it didn t
amount to much. We simply saw a
homely squaw standing on the edge of
rock aud holding in her hand a
seven foot pole, attached to which was
willow hoop and bit of sack ar
ranged to form sort of dip net. You
may not believe what followed, but it
is gospel truth, every word. That fair
maiden of the north time and time

three, four or more silver sides, weigh

We watched that squaw catch fish for
three mortal hours, and the way she
landed them was revelation. n-San

LITERARY NOTES.

The Delineator for May is called the
Commencement Number, and is the
third of three great issues of the ssa-
son. The article on Gowns for Com
mencement Day is most attractively H.
Illustrated, and is planned to give ample
time for preparing the attire for this
important occasion. Another timely
article is Mrs. Roger A. Pryor's ON
Weddings and Wedding Ceremonies,
given fac simile invitations to some
very distinguished social events. A
very interesting paper on Oberlin Col.
lege is from the pen of Edith Dickson,
and Mae Harris Anson writes cleverly
OF Government Clerkships as an En-
ployment for Women. The papers on
the Experiences of a Training School
Life, edited by Mrs. Frederic Rhinelan-
der Jones, are continued, while the
very helpful series on How to be Well
is brought to conclusion. A notable
article in this. number is A May Day
Festival, arranged for school and other
entertainments by Mrs. Lila Viles Wy.

BIG DEFICIT.
Treasury Has Failed to Make Both
Ends Meet.

Washington, April 28.-The optimis-
tic Treasury officials assert that the
Treasury deficit for April will be So
ooo,OOO or more. The deficit today is
within few thousand of $40, 800, 900.
With but six days in which to reduce
1t and the expenditures continuing to
exceed the receipts, it is evident that
such rosy views are similar to Secretary
Carlisle 6 estimates of the deficits for
the year-incorrect.
1t Is also claimed by the Treasury
Department that the receipts from the
income tax will be of material assis.
tance in wiping out large part of the
deficit for the year, which already ag-
gregates about forty seven millions.
In this calculation cognizance is not
taken of the fact that the internal rev.
enue receipts for March are more than
three millions less than for March, V4,
and that if this continues, the total loss
Tor the present fiscal year In internal
revenue receipts will be eight millions,
which would Offset that amount of the
income tax receipts and make it DOS.
sible for them to wipe out but seven
millions of the deficit. 1t can thus be
seen that with expenditures for the rest
OF the year not unlikely to exceed the
receipts, the deficit will hardly be re.
duced from the present figures.

In the Spring

Nearly everybody needs good medi-
cine. The impurities which have ac-
cumulated in the blood during the cold
months must be expelled, or when the
mild days come and the effect of the
bracing air is lost, the body is liable to
be overcome by debility or some seri-
GUS disease. The remarkable success
achieved by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and
the many words of praise it has re-
ceived, make it worthy your con fidence.
We ask you to give this medicine a
trial. We are sure it will do you good.

half of Hoods Sarsaparilla, all from
reliable, grateful people, they tell the

Working for Uncle Sam.

There are Government positions
which hold out excellent possibilities
in the way of developing a young mans
qualities, writes Edward W. Box in re-
ply to the question, "Is q Government
position on general principles a good
thing for young man who is desirous
of future?" in the May Ladies' Home
Journal. But these are rare. For the
most part, and on general principles, l
would not advise any young man to
enter the employ of the Government,
that is if he has any ambition. AGov.
ernment position holds out attraction
to the average young man because he
feels it is safe, that is, so far as the
salary is concerned. Then, too, he is
apt to believe that Government salaries
are somewhat higher than the salaries
attached to civil pursuits. But, to my
mind, he buys these "sure" elements at
very dear cost to himself. The aver
age Government clerkship is very
poor affair. Not only is 1T poor in itself,
but, in ninety cases out of hundred,
it means pure clerical routine. IL has
about it peculiar sitting monotony
and restraint which are apt to quench
the fire of ambition. Promotion is i'm
possible upon the same lines as in
business house. The chances for de.
velopment are meagre. While there
are exceptions to the general rule, Gov
ernment service is not the best thing
for any young fellow. He will be wiser
If he enters into the more fearless free.
dom of civil pursuits, and leaves the
average Government position. In the
first, he can be what he likes; in the
latter, it is doubtful.

The Foundation Stone OF Success.

The one great rule of business is that
of honesty absolute and unqualified hon.
esty, writes Edward w. Box in the May
Ladies' Home Journal. All the rules
of business are worthless ifthey are not
founded on that one and only founda-
ton stone to true commercial success.
Honesty is not alone the best policy in
business; it is the one and only policy.
Upon it, and upon it alone, can good
reputation be built, and man in bust.
ness without reputation for honesty
might justas well stop. ANY deviation
from the rule Of honesty in business m ay
bring temporary gain, but it invaria-
bly, means permanent loss. On the
other hand, strict adherence to an
honest policy may mean a tempor-
airy loss, but it is sure to result in a
permanent gain.

In the month of February in this year,
Col. Joseph Martin lived on the Long
Island of Holston opposite to which on
the east side, was a fort built by Col.
William Christian in 17,B,r which was
garrisoned up to 1881, with men raised
on the Holston aud 'Vatauga. In this
month he received notice by the Indian
traders, Grant Williams and Archibald
Coody, that the Cherokees were EN-.
bodied and would be upon the frontiers
as soon as the latter could be prepared.
He collected three or fotr hundred
men at the Long Island, and marched
from thence to the Indian towns. He
crossed Holston with h>s troops, went
to Watauga ,and thencsto Nolac hucky,
to French Broad, to Little River, to
Tennessee, to Tellico,. to old Chota,
and to Tamotlee. They burnt and de-
stroyed the corn of the Indians, and
killed some of them They met the
Indians between Little Tennessee and
Tellico, and fought with and defeated
them. They took twenty or thirty In
dian prisoners, and returned home by
the same route they came Col. Camp
bell arrived at the Long Island and
dispatched runners to discover where
the troops under Martin were. They
met the latter returning. Col. Camp
bell remained at the Long Island three
months, giving to the Inhabitants
there all the assistance In his power
against the common enemy. The In.
dians still persevering in the hostile
course which they had for some time
pursued, number of men to the
amount of one hundred and thirty col
lected together, in March, 1881, in the
Greasy Cove of Nolachucky Ri> er,
with Col. John Sewer at their. head,
and marched into the middle settle
ments of the Cherokees on the head
waters of the Little Tentessee River,
and entered the town of Tuckasejah,
where they killed fifty Imeh and made
prisoners of fifty womb and children,
ten of whom resided with Col. Sewer
three years before they wereexchanged.
Then they were delivered. to Col. Jo.
seph Martin, and by him were restored
to their own nation. In vicinity of

In the summer Of this ySar, 17s1.
Col. Sewer attacked camp of the In
dians on Indian Creek. They had
come into the neighborhood of the
frontiers to plunder. He went from
Washington County with troops, sup.
posed to be one hundred, crossed
French Broad at the War Ford, cross
ing, also, Big Pigeon at the War Ford.
He arrived at their camp and the
whites made the attack. The latter
surrounded the camp of the Indians
and killed seventeen of them; the rest
fled in body supposed to be thirty.
He returned with his troops nearly the
same route. So many severe chastise-
ments induced the Indians to wish for
peace, and it was made with them
without difficulty in the summer of
1881.
