THERE is growing sentiment
among republicans of this con-
gressional district, who live in the
counties outside of Knox, to com
bine for mutual benefit. The
TIMES favored this and advocated
it some time ago, but most Of our
brethren of the press and the
politicians of the outside counties
were so strongly attached to the
then ruling power in Knox, that
they could not be induced to join
in with us. What means this sud
den change? We want to know
the purpose of the combination be-
fore we say we are in favor of it.

Faith ON the Picket Lines.

On that part of the line in front of
Atlanta occupied by the Twentieth
corps the pickets often entered into an
agreement not to fire for anywhere
from half an hour to three hours. The
picket lines were so close together that
a Yankee whisper could be heard by
the Johnnies. The show of head or
any part of the body meant shot, and
usually wound or death. When the
pickets became 80 weary from sitting in
the cramped picket pits that life was an
almost unbearable burden truce was
called for. If the call came from the
COnfederates it was in this way, or
way very similar to this:
"Yanks, how do you alls feel?"
"Like Satan, or worse. TIL ese
picket-pits give us the cramps"
"That's our fix, too. Suppose we
stop the killing for an hour or so while
we stretch our limbs and get rested"
"Mighty glad to make such con-
tract"
"All right. We will let up three
minutes from now and give you three
m.nutes to get back into your pits be-
fore he shooting begins"
sit is bargain"
The pickets of the Second Massachu-
sets and Third Wisconsin made such
an arrangement with the men over
there one hot afternoon. Things went
along charmingly for more than an hour,
when a young officer appeared on the
Confederate line and ordered the men
to go firing.
"We can't do it, SIR" said the SER
geant. "We have agreed with the
Yankees to quit shooting for two hours.
The time is only half up"
Sergeant, order the picket to begin
firing at once"
81 can't break my word with the
Yankees, SIR"
"Then / will. Begin firing every
man of you"
'.Not man touched his gun or start
ed for the pits.
The young officer seized gun and
shot at the Union pickets. That was
the signal for our line to open fire. The
balance of that day the Confederate
pickets in front of those two regiments
didn't shoot to kill. Those who didn't
shoot in the air separated the chunk of
lead from their cartridge - BANKED
them.
That night dozen or more of the
pickets left their pits and crawled into
the Union lines, giving as their excuse
the conduct of the young officer. Their
haversacks were filed the next morn
ing by the Massachusetts aud Wiscon-
sin boys as they started on their jour.

SOLDIERS BUDGET,
Clement L. Vallandigham.

One day in May, 1868, as Private s.
f. Nunnelee, of the Fifty-first Ala
bama regiment, was on picket about
five miles from Murfrees boro, Tenn.
a Federal officer, entirely unattended
and carrying q flag of truce, rode up
and inquired for the officer in COM
mand, and through him for the colonel
of the regiment. Col. j. ID. Webb
was on the line, couple of miles to
the rear, and Private Nunnelee was
sent to inform him that the Federals
were desirious of passing the noted
Clement l.. Vallandigham within the
Confederate lines, as per order of the
secretary of war. This move had been
anticipated, as Vallandigham's SEN
tence had been promulgated, but the
Confederate government had no desire
TO accept him. Had he come as a re-
cruit for the ranks he would have been
welcome, but as banished politician
he was guest whom no one cared to
entertain. Col. Webb took his time
about riding to the front, and as he got
there Nunnelee was sent down the
highway TO investigate a second white
flag. This was waving above vehicle
drawn by one horse and occupied by a
Federal lieutenant and Vallandigham.
The officer was driving, and the BAN
ished politician was sitting very stiff
and erect. But few words were said as
the officer drew rein. He said to Nun
Melee:
'Here is Vallandigham, sentenced
to Punishment"
And to the great politician he said:
"Come, l have no time to spare"
protest against this outrage-sol-
EMMY protest." answered Vallandig-
ham.
4" Yes, but hurry up. I'll take your
trunk off. Jump down, now-good
day."
And the officer sprang into the We
hicle, turned around and went off at
fast trot, leaving Vallandigham and the
Confederate soldier together on the
highway. Previous to the war Mr..
Nunnelee was editor of a paper at
Eutaw, and Vallandigham was one of
its readers. AS they stood there the
private soldier introduced himself, and
the politician gave him a hearty shake
of the hand and said:
What on earth are you doing here?"
In the ranks"
Auu are suCu Lutu dS you uSuJlDS
in the ranks of the Confederate army?"
Thousands of u.s."
"Then that settles 1.-THE North can
never conquer you"
After some further talk the soldier
carried the politicians trunk into de-
serted negro cabin a quarter of mile
away, and then went for his colonel.
Webb came slowly up, and as be dis
mounted at the hut the baLished North
erner said:
"Col. Webb, l am Clement l.. VAL
landigham, citizen of Ohio and the
United States, imprisoned, vilified and
banished from my country for my love
Of liberty and free speech"
The colonel stiffly answered.:
"Mr. Vallaudigham, as a citizen of
Ohio and the United States you are my
enemy. AS one banished for his love
of liberty, for which the South is fight
ing to-day, bid you welcome to the
Southern Confederacy."

Health and strength carry us
through dangers and make us safe
in the presence of peril. A per-
fectly strong man with rich, pure
blood, has nothing to fear from
germs. He may breathe in the
bacilli of consumption with i'm
punity, If there is weak spot
where the germs may find an en-
trance to the tissues, then the
trouble begins. Disease germs
propagate with lightning like ra-
pidity, Once in the blood, the
only way to get rid of them is
to kill them. This is what DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is for. 1t purifies the blood.
That means that it kills the
germs, but that is only part of
