Athens Friday, Nopt. IS, 148. ' AENTH FOR THE lOST. The following named gentlemen will nut as agent for tho Post In remitting subscriptions from tholr tcspectlvo localities: Joint L. McKiknky, Hlcevlllo. , . W. J. Abkl. Decatur. n. F. Ma mix, Calhoun. H. A. Ckawkord, Washington. Rhea Co. t). W. lATl'lMKR. Four Mile Branch, W. W. FiKi.ns. llenton, l'olk County, H. B. Siiiiu.ky, Sulphur Springs, Rhea county, Tennessee. Thos. Stkimikns, Cartorsvllte, Ga. Polk County. Circuit Court for Polk county will meet at Denton next Monday, the 21st. Several of the more eminent members of tho Bar at this place are expected to be present. Monroe County. We spent Monday and Tuesday of tho pres ent week at the county seat of Monroe. Court met on Monday morning, ami in addition to the ordinary matters on such occasions, Ills Honor, as is now his duty, hnd something to aay about the Kukluxcrs. The law recently passed Is a pretty heavy one, and If there Is a man In all thts land and country belonging to that organization, we advise him to get up and Kit out of it at once. Loyal leaguers would do themselves no harm by pursuing a similar course lu regard to their organization, us sc. cret political societies are all wrong and can only exist to the harm and Injury of the pub lie welfare; aud surely no one who belongs to the Lcaguo cau with any propriety make mouths at the Kuklux. A good many civil eases were continued, as the lawyers were anxious to get oil' to Knox vllle to look after their business in the Supreme Court. The corn crop in Monroels good, as it is eve rywhere In Kast Tennessee, and with tho ex ccptlon of the general complaint of high taxes, the peoplo seem to he jogging along well enough, possessing their souls In patience and waiting for the good time coming when they may once more dwell In quletudebonoath their own vino and fig tree, with neither Lea guers nor Kukluxers to make them afraid Wo had the pleasure of meeting with a good many old friends, a number of whom renewed their former relationship with the Atiiknh Post, which was always a favorite In that ill rcctlon. We think in a few months more, not withstanding Monroe now has two papers of its own to support, we will be able to work our list up to the old standard. We thank our friends for the substantial tokens of eiienur. agement received during our short stay, aud propose to show our appreciation by furnish ing them with a good, readable and truthful paper. The Proposed Tournament. Last week In noticing the Tournament pro posed to be held at Knoxvillo on tho2nth In stant, we omitted to slate that the proceeds of the affair were to be appropriated to caring for the graves of the Confederate dead. As before remarked, this is a dutv which has been too long neglected a duty In which all may en. gage, but more particularly Is it incumbent on thoso who wcro identified with or gave aid and comfort to tho cause in which they fell. They at least were sincere, and sealed their devotion with their lives. Their resting places are to be found In every direction, In many Instances unmarked and unrecognized, " where the foe and the stranger tread o'er their heads," and it will after awhile be a grateful reflection to all of us that wo assisted In giving thel ashes decent sepulture in a -nmmon cemetery A friend at Knoxvillo writes that it is do. signed the Tournament and Coronation Party shall be a grand and interesting nflair; and w trust that a largo number of our friends in this direction will show their appreciation of tho noble and praise-worthy object by being present. We learu through tho Knoxvillo papers that arrangements will be made with all the railroads of the State so,that persons wishln to attend tho Tournament in that city on the 20th Inst., can obtain excursion tickets from all points In the Stato, visit Knoxvillo and return at half price. We trust that thero will be a full attendance; and we can assure those desirous of attending, that ample hotel ac comniodattons will be provided forall visitors, The Kuklux Rill. The bill for the suppression of the mythical Kuklux Klan, passed by the Legislature at It: recent extraordinary session, contains twenty four sections much of It tho merest twaddle but some things tho scope and verge of whic perhaps three.fourths of tho members who votedfor it did not full v comprehend. Itisre ported that some of the best legal minds think several of the more stringent provisions reach farther than tho framers of the bill In tended, and eover, not only tho Kuklux, but the Loyal Leagues aud tho O. A. 11, two secret and oath-bouud political organizations known to havo an existnuoe within the limits of this State, and to have been productive of an Im mense deal of mischief. We will not under take to say how tliut may be until further ad vised, but will publish the bill entire at an early day. Smoke-lIouNe ltulthed. On last Saturday night some hungry cuss broke into Jim Charles' smoke-house and abstracted therefrom tho last pound of bacon poor Jim had. That happy-go-lucky individ ual, liowevcr, is not caring much. Ho will in a few days be In receipt of a supply of Now and Seasonable Goods, and tbeu midst the throng of customers which always rush to his store on such occasions, ho will sonuU'orget tho reeent raid upon his larder. Mr. Charles In forms us that tho amount of meat the thief ob tained was just five pounds and a half, aver dupolse. Man Miot. We learn that on Wednesday or Thursday of last week, a man named Kellcy, living In the 18th' civil district of this county, was shot and badly wounded by another named Gibson. We know nothing of tho origin of the difficul ty, other than that politics had nothing to do with It. Lw Curd. Attention is respectfully invited to the Card of Geo. W, Bridges, Attorney at Law and Heal Estate Broker, Athens, Tennessee. Col. B. has been ongaged in the practice of Law for Rome years, and Is favorably known not only in East Tennossoe, but throughout the State. He now proposes to eulargo bis business, and has adopted, about the only sensible and cer tain way to do it making the fact known through tho columns of the publio Journals. We again direct attention to his Card. OTR. 11. 6., Sulphur Springs, has ourac. knowledgmenta for bis attention, and bis kind' nest anil partiality are highly appreciated. The Report of th Committee. We have Just Incidentally met up with a copy of tho "Report of the Joint Military Committee of the two Houses" of the Tennes see. Legislature, to take testimony about the Kuklux. It S('ems,to be a compound of mis representation: and exaggeration, based for tho most part upon the absurd and Improbable stories told by negroes who left their homes in the country and sought Nashvillo to avoid la boring for A living. If such A condition of affairs hits been existing In Tennessee which no satio and candid mind believes It is an ad ditional evidence of tho Inefficiency of the present State administration, and a damning testimony against radical rule. We understand that largo numbers of this radical Action were printed at tho expense of tho tax-payers, and are being scattered through tho country as a campaign document. They will, however, do no harm except perhaps to further embitter the negro against the white man and impel him onward In the direction of that conflict of races which now appears to be a prominent feature 111 the radical programme. An OversiifEht. The Legislature committed a grove mis. take In not, before adjourning, ordering to be printed a large and Indefinite number of copies of the Militia Bill, the Kuklux and Currency Bills, together with n truo transcript , of the State's liabilities, all In the English and Ger. man languages, to bo placed in tho hands of the Immigration agent and by him to be dls. trlbutcd generally throughout thoso portions of the country to which he seems to look for bis immigrants. Reinforced with such potent Instrumentalities and Inducements, we have no doubt that gentleman would meet with i much larger degree ol success thau haB hlth erto attended his efforts. Cnnlreirn X IIoihIh. Jas. C. Carlock, Esq., proposes to sell, on the 17th of October, some valuable lands, situated immediately In the vicinity of Cantrcll's X Roads, McMInn county. The lands will be sold in lots to suit purchasers, at public sale, on that day if not sooner disposed of. The neighborhood Is said to be a good one, and there are other advantages which any one wishing to purchase will readily sec by visit ing the place. Mr. Carlock is anxious to sell and no doubt good bargains can be obtained of him by caily application. Holivur female Academy. We learned while at. Madisonvillo that this educational Institution, under tho charge of Prof. Ramsey, Is In a flourishing condition there being a large number of pupils in at tendance, who are making rapid progress with their studies. Professor R. has the reputation of being nn excellent teacher. The Male School Is now in progress, with a competent tcachcrln charge and fair prospects, No peopl manifest more devotion to cduca. tlonal Interests than those of Madlsonvllleand vicinity. Head the Advertisement. Tho man who docs not read the advertise ments in his paper can never be said to be well informed. .The advertisements Indicate not only the business enterprises, but of the adver tiser. When you sec a man who advertises liberally, you may be certain In finding a good stock of goods In store; that he keeps up with the market, and sells cheaper than thoso who do not advertise. If you want good bargains always patronize those who avail themselves of the advantages afforded through tho adver tising colunimoftheirpapor. Another Oood .Man 4oue. We learn from the Richmond Whig of the 1st Inst., that Mr. Win. Sands, for many years editor of tho Religious Herald, tho organ of the Baptists In Virginia, died very suddenly at his residence in that city on the 30th ult., I the 70th year of his age. Mr. Sands was, In every sense of the term, a good man modest; unassuming, child-like, and was esteemed as such by all who knew him. A NenNiule Uovernor, The present Governor of Alabama seems to be a sensible man, at least for a radical. At the recent session of the Legislature of that State, a law was passed requiring the Govern or to designate one or more papers in each Con. gresslonal district In which advertisements aretobubllshed; no advertisements to bo of validltyinless It appears In a paper thus named. Under this law, Gov. Smith has de signated all the papers in the State. The Mupreme Court. A gentleman from Knoxvillc states that Mr. Maynakd had been sworn in as special Judge, Mr. TltiMm.K will not accept, and Judge Smith had not arrived. Thero will bo Court before next Monday if then. Altogether a lislake. The ( onimll tee or arrangements for tho ap. proacinng Tournament, through one or it mcmiers, sent to our olllcc tho other ilav, as an advertisement, an announcement of tl Rules for the government of the Knights, to. iretner with a list of Mannsrosro tor the oce slon. Tho advertisement was published just as it was written, and the proof was read bv the gentleman who handed it in. In the list oi managers appeared the names of "Dr. May, Athens Post," and "Cant. Henderson. Athens 1'ost." We perceive that tho consequential Editor of a modcratc.sizcd hebdomadal, occa sionally issued at Athens Post Office, has the vanity to imagine that somebody was endeavo ring to rob hiin of the honor of the solo pro prietorship of his littlo institution.' We are assured that the Committee were entirely un conscious of the existence of any such journal. u was simpiy mcani "Alliens rost iimco." Wo doubt not tho Committee, at their next meeting, will be prompt to make all proper explanations and apologies to Dr. May, and ('apt. Henderson, for this unintentionally of- tensive association or their names. o none the liko may not occur again. Knoxville Frets and Herald. Alas I poor Yorlck, we knew him well. Memorial Wervlee. The Funeral Sermon of Mary Cuknyno. ham, relict of the late Rev. Jesse C'unnyng. ham, will be preached at tho Presbyterian Church, Mt. Harmony, by Rev. J. H. Brunucr, on Sunday, October IS, 1808.

La Cloche says that since tho new press law of France was passed not a singlo paper has been started thnt upholds the Imperial rule. Grant has so distinguished himself by hold. Ing his peace, it Is not to be wondered at he should desire more. Let him seek It In re tirement, if ho would save his credit. Ben. Butler proved himself by his New Or. leans campaign tho best leader of a "riflo" corps over known In history. A fellow calling himself Felix Robinson who has been strolling through Izord coun ty, Arkansas, for some time, swearing that he would like to kill a rebel, round one named Tinckney Morris, the other day, and cut him nearly to pieces. The murder was unprovoked. Grant Informed a New Orleans gentleman recently, that he "had to kick the d d seoun drcl Warmoutb (tho present Governor of Lou isiana) out of the army at Vlcksburg as common liar."
