ii
PUBLISHED WEEKLY I

AT I
KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE. d
I
|
On or before the 2_th day of March, 1874, the
undersigned will Issue a journal in the city of '.
KnOßVllle.Tennessee, called t
THE ORANGE OUTLOOK. j
It will be devoted to tie prosecution of the J
great work known now thronghotit the United g
States as the "Farmer's Movement," or "The g
Patrons of Husbandry." Its distinctive aim
will be the intellectual, moral, social, and flnan- r
clal elevation of the agricultural nnd working n
classes of the country, to guard and protect
them ngainst fraud, to assist them in their 0
work, and to stand by them in all their struggles, v
No ANTAGONISM to classes. No war will g
bo waged against other classes so long as they p
make no war upon the industrial classes. The r
law of mutual dependence Is fully recognized
and acknowledged, In all Its force and potency, '
and, therefore, it would be unjust to attack any X
class whose aim is in a legtimate way, to pro- ii
tectltself and to secure those immunities essea- J
tlnl to Its own existence. Tho farmers and ,■
working classes, however, must I'
ORGANIZE FOR THEIR OWN PROTEC- I
TION. ii
And in doing so, they are simply obeying the c
promptings ot nn Instinct and an impulse, 1
which, to-day, is sw.ying and controlling all ft
classes in the United States. Mutual protec
tion Is what they demand, and is what they J
will have at all reasonable hazards THE '
ORANGE OUTLOOK will et-courage and s
stimulate the growth of this sentiment, believ °
ing it to be essential to the happiness and pros
perity of the classes in question.
EDUCATIONAL, SOCIAL AND MORAL J
ADVANCEMENT.
Regarding these great principles as the foun I
dation—ln fact, the chief corner-stone of mdi- '
vid al and national success—no effort will be
tpared to give them due prominence. «
NON-POLITICAL.
Partisan politics can find r.o place in its ,
columns. The great movement which it haslhe v
honor of representing does not happily, admit
the discussion of politics Thii wise and
th.u__ftil provision will be adhered to tena
ciously.
UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD.
THE GRANGE OUTLOOK will extend
the olive branch to struggling humanity in all
parts of our land. It will be governed by no
sectional lines. One Hag floats over our com
mon country, and under its ample folds It will
bat'le for the continu d welfare of every sec
tion, thus binding together Indissolubly, ihe I
East, the North, the South, and the West.
COMMERCIAL AND NEWS DEPARTMENT.
Full and accurate reports will be given of the '
various markets of the principal cities of the
United States. All the current news of the times .
will be condensed and furnished to the reader. j
INTER-COMMUNICATION. j
Through its ample columns subordinate i
granges can co .municate with each other, cul- J
tivate each other's acquaintance, Interchange J
viewß, publish their doings and thus strengthen „
each other in the mighty work in which they r
are engaged. ;
ABLE CORRESPONDENTS. i
From all parts of Tennessee and contiguous J
states, able correspondents will grace its col- J
umn-with their well-matured productions In -i
the ranks of the agricultural and working classes J
there are men of brains, of culture and intelli- "
gence, and all they need is the opportunity to t
establish this fact, c
IMMIGRATION. *
The cause of immigration will bo stimulated J
to the fullest extent. There is no better state r
in the Union than Tennessee. Its advantages •
will be faithfully unfolded, and good citizens '
Invited to make their homes among us from all _
parts of the world. i

cade, wlh ihe natural result of he lapse of time,
have brought Into public view a multitude of .
new men, whose names are tn every one's mouth, '
and of whose lives every one Is curious to know ,
the particulars Oreat battle have been fought
and important sieges maintained, of which the j
details are as yet preserved only in the news
papers or in the transient publications of the _
day, but which ought now to take their place in r
peimanent and anthentic history.
In preparing tho present edition for the press,. °
it has accordingly been the aim of the edi'ors to •
bringdown the information to the latest possi f
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account "f '
the most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production In literature and of the newest c
Inventions in the practical arts, as well as to
give a succinct and original record of the pro
gress of political and historical events.
fhe work ha« been begun alter long and care- J
ful preliminary labor, c.nd with the most ample ■
resources for carrying it on to a successful ter- c
minatlon.
None of tin original stereotype plates have
been used, bal every page has has been prlntod
on new type, forming in fact a new Cyclopxdia, J
with the same plan and compass as its prede- J
cessor, but with a tar greater pecuniary expend- J
Itnre, and with su-h improvements in its com- <
position as have been suggested by longer expe- J
rience and enlarged knowledge
The illustrations.___!h are introduced for the
first time In the piesent edition have been added j
nut for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations J
in the text. They embrace all branches of 1
science and of natural history, and depict tho *
most famous and remarkable features of scone- :
rv, architecture, and art, as well as the variois '
processes of mechanics and manu'ictures. *
Although Intended for Instruction rati. >r than '
embelll-hment, no pains havo been spared to I
insure their artistic excellence ; the cost of their I
execution i 8 enormous and it Is believed they
will find a welcome t eception as an admirable l
feature of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of O'ich volume. It will be com '
pleted in sixte n large octavo volumes, each con- I
taining about 800 pages, fully illustrated with I
several thousand Wootl Engravings, and with

THE ALDI NE .
An Illustrated monthly Joarnal, universally ad
mitted to be the hand-torn en periodical
In the world. A repr. tentative
and champion ot Amert
can Tafte.
Not I »r Sale In Hook or News Store*.
THE ALMNE, while iwned with all the
regularity, has none of the temporary or timely
mtere-t characterisnc ot o dinary periodical-!
It Ift an elegant miscellany ot pure, light and
graceful litiruture ; and a collection of pictures,
the raiest specimens of a-rii-Uic skill, in black and
white Although each su reeding number
mJI. .rds a fresh pleasure to its friend*", >be real
value at'd beamy of THK ALDINE will be
most appreciated alter it has been bound up at
the close of the year. While other publications
may claim superior cheapness, as compared
with rivals ot a similar class THE ALUINE Is
a unique and original conception—alone and
unapproarhed—absolutely without competiion
in price or character. The possess >r of a com
plete volume cannot dup icaie the quantify of
fine paper and engravings In any other shape or
number of volumes tor ten times its cost; and
then, there are the chromos, besides !
ART DEPARTMENT. 1874.
The illustrations of THE ALDINE have won
a world-wid" rtputation, and in the art centres
of Europe it Is ati admitted tact that Its wood
cuts are examples of the highest perfection ever
attained. The common prejudice in favor of
*'steel platev," is rapidly Yielding to a more
educated and iscrimlnating'taste which rvcfg
i) />"- the > dvantages of superior artistic quality
wi'-h greater facility of production. The w-nxi*
cuts of THE Al.l'fM; possess ail the delicacy
and elaborate finish of ihe most costly steel
plate, while lhey afford ft better rendering of the
artis-t's original,
To fully realize the wonderful work which
THE ALDINE is doing for ihe cause of art cul
ture iv America, it is only necessary to consider
the cost to the people of any other decent re
presentations of the productions of great pain
ters.
In addition to designs by the members of the
National Academy, and other noted American
artists, THE ALDINE will reproduce examples
of the best foreign masters, selected with a view
to the highest artistic success and grettest gen
eral interest Thus the subscriber to THE
ALDINE «HI, at a trifling coat, enjoy In his
own homo the pleasures and refilling influences
of true art
The quarterly tinted plates for 1f174 will be
by Thos. Morau and J. D. Woodward.
Th_i Ch.i-tmas issue for 1874 will contain
special designs appropriate to the season, by our
best artists, and will surpass in attractions any
or its predecessors.
PREMIUM FOR 1874.
Every subscriber to THE ALDINE for the
year 1874 will leceive a pair of chromos. The
original pictures were painted in oil for the pub
lishers of THE ALDINE. by Thomas IMoran.
whose great Colorado picture was purchased by
Congress for ten thousand dollars. Ihe subjects
we c chosen to represent '"The East" ami "The
West." One is a view in The White Mountains,
New Hampshire ; tho other gives The Cliffs of
Green River, Wyoming Territory. The differ
ence in the nature of the scene* themselves is a
pleasing contrast, and affords a good display
of the artist's scope and coloring. The chromos
are each worked trom thirty distinct plates, nnd
are in size {12 x Hi) and appearance exact fac
similes of the oilginala The presentation of a
worthy example of America's greatest landscape
painter to the subscribers of THE ALDINE was
a bold but peculiarly happy idea and Us success
ful realization is attested by the foil wing te li
monial, over thesignatuieof Mr. Moran himself.
