IF THE NEW FIRE MARSHAL WERE TO
TELL YOTJ THAT HE HAD
in his cellar, or some other ridiculous story, you
would not believe him; you would say that he was
crazy. An assertion to be accepted as true, must
be reasonable must be moderate. Geo. C. Wil
liams, the Clothier, does not claim that every cus
tomer who calls at his store will find a basket of
diamonds awaiting him, to be had for the asking,
but does claim, however, to have some very nice
bargains in Ready-made Clothing and Gent's Fur
nishing Goods, and is now offering very extraor
dinary inducements, preparatory to our stock tak
ing. No goods will be given away, but a large
quantity of them will be sold at prices as low, or
lower, perhaps, than could be named you again in
a life time, at our CARNIVAL CLEARING SALE.

grantham nr GRIEF.
The Rockwocd Republican of recent
date states that Iter. Mr. "Grantliam.the
Episcopal minister baa been preacbinjr
there twice a saonth for sometime past;
that some three weeks ago be attended a
choir meeting at the bouse of a promi
nent citizen: that after the meeting ad
journed be askeil a young ladj of six
teen if be could see ber borne. She is
the daughter of a prominent Episcopa-
1'an and ber home was only two blocks
off. She accepted Mr. Grantham's es
cort, but almost immediately after tear
ing the house be attempted to take im
proper liberties with ber, and did make
Improper proposals, and actually forced
bia arms around ber. She indignantly
shored him away and asked bim what
he meant, whereupon he began to apolo
gize and walked on te her father's gate
begging ber not to get mad as be meant
no barm. The young lady said aethinz
about the matter for nearly two weeks,
then she told her mother and she told
ber husband. He waited on Grantham
and charged bim with improper conduct
toward bis daughter. Grantham did
not deny it, but begged bim not to say
anything about it, that he would after
preaching that day nerer come to Rock-
wood again, tie informed bis congre
gation at the cloie of the service that he
would ot be back. Shortly after ser
rices some of the roune men found it
out, and Grantham came near being
rode op a rail, bat some older heads ad
vised them to use no riolence. The
episcopalians without exception con
demned the conduct of Grantham and
thought he was preaching without the
consent of the Bishop. Mr. Grantham
lires in Louden and has preached two
er three tints In Morristown.
CIRCUIT COURT.
We haven't given a full synopsis of
the Court proceedings, from the fact
Miat many matters before it would be
uninteresting to the general public.
Tbe civil docket was again continued,
and the week consumed on the criminal
docket. Four were sent' to tbe peni
tentiary for petit larceny three whites
and one negro John Carter and Jim
Fry, white, four years each, for steal
ing bacon from R. S. Taylor, Eq.:
Phillip Gray, white, for stealing clothe

for stealing corn from Hale. A
negro man and white woman were con

Dow WooJy for carrying a pistol. All
these cases were continued to April
erm, and the parties, except William
Woody, who gave bond a few days ago,
are ia jail. There will be two week'
court in April, and, since tbe removal
here of the case, against Ramsey, wh

learn, ill be for trial, it will take ev

docket. And thus the courts array
their "slow length along," though th-
'facials of the court seen to do their
best.
DRS. U BACKER A TURNER.
We learo that Drs. Heacker A Turn
er, of "Mineral Hill Sanitarium," at
Bean's Station, Grainger county, Ten
nessee, have opened a branch office in
Chattanooga. Wo have knowo Dr.
(Ieacker personally and professionally
for several years. When be first came
to Tennessee, some five or six years
ago, ho established his Sanitarium at
Morristown, where, by bis close atten
tion to business, his intimate acquaint
ance with tbe anatomy of the human
system, a profound knowledge of the
diseases that "flesh is heir to," and a
remarkable faculty for adapting reme
dies suitable for their cure, he built up
aa extensive practice, and established a
wide reputation as a most accomplish
ed and skillful physician and surgeon.
Appreciating the advantages and the
splendid curstive properties of the cel
ebrated Mineral Hill Springs, at Bean'
Station, aome ten miles north of Mor-
ri.town, he purchased them and remov
ed to that place where, with enlarged
facilities for tho accommodation of his
numerous patients, he has for the past
two or three years ministered success
fully t) hundreds who have (ought his
aid from all parts of the country. H
has lately associated with him Dr.
Turner, from Virginia, who, we are in
formed, is a physician of great skill and
large experience. W are glad to see
them "enlarging their borders," and we
unhesitatingly commend them to the
people of Chattanooga as masters of the
"curative art." For tbe consolation of
the afflicted in our own land, and those
who may wish to avail themselves of
the benefits of the waters of Mineral
ill Springs, we are pleased to be able I
to say that our information is that tbe
Sanitarium at that place is a "fixed
fact," and that Drs. Heacker A Turner
only propose to establish a branch of-
w - -
flee at Chattanooga.
Lawyers will gladly learn that Broug
ham, tbe great English barrister, was
always careful of bis throat, and furth
er, that Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is the
best remedy for bronchitis and other
throat troubles. -
I URNERrS HORSE SHOE, i BED
SPRING.
One of tbe best selling inventions ever
introduced in this county Is Turner's
Horse-Shoe Bed Spring. It is made of
the best Bessmer Meet Wire (48 springs
to the set) and 4s sold for $5 per set, for
which Mr. Turner will take in exchange
all kinds of produce, but principally
feathers. During the time that Mr-
Turner has bees located here (about
two months) be has sold about S4C
worth of tbe Springs and baa taken
about 6000 to 8000 pounds of feathers.
That ahows how they sell. Mr. Turner
moved bia establishment , here from
Dyer county, where according to the
county papers, he also did an Immense
business. Ho came here highly recom
mended by the papers of that county
aod bia conduct here has been that of
an upright, straightforward business
man, ana we, commend hira to the peo- j
pie ol u lies county, wbiUier he has new

WHAT A LEADING " MERCMAN1
THINKS OF THE BUSINESS
OUTLOOK.
It was a frosty morning, and a stiff
wintry wind was taking all the ingrati
tude out of a Gazette reporter, when
be darted into the in viting establishment
of Geo. C. Williams, the clothier, to
toast his locomoting sppendages before
a roaring beater. "Fine weather for
rbe clothing trade, George," remarked
the scribe in his usual familiar way.
"Well, I should twitter, or go back
on my byke (bicycle), if it wasu't," re
plied Mr. Williams. "At least 'them's
the sentiments of everyone about this
establishment," continued tbe genial
clothier. -
"What do you think about tho busi
ness outlook for the season, George,''
queried the reporter. :
"The business outlook," said Mr.
Williams, "is very flattering, and we
bare made extensive preparations for
a big trade. When I call your atten
tion to the fact that I have just added
three hundred overcoat to my stock, you
may form some idea of what I think of
tbe business outlook."
"Thkee hundred overcoatsI" the
reporter repeated, with emphasized as
tonishment. "Whewl"
"Yes, three hundred," replied Mr.
Williams, "and we expect to repeat the
order in less than 60 days; and that is
not the only indication of the 'business
outlook' with us; look at that stack of
Flannel Undershirts all wool fifty
dozen! Those we are retailing rapidly
at $1 00 sold everywhere at $1 60 and
12 00 and it will just be our luck to
run out before the next installment
reaches us. Tho 'business outlook' "
concluded Mr. Williams, "is a big thing
about here, don't you think so?"
The Faberite admitted that appear
ances were certainly that way, and
with a twitch of bis blue-tinted nose,
was out in the chilly air again in quest
of other interviews and te dream at
night, when bis weary bones were laid
to rest, ef three hundred overcoats and
fifty dozen red flannel shirts wiggling
about in a conglomerated mess, with
a big flaming "1 00" on the tails of
tho shirts and figures of all sizes flash,
log from tbe overcoats presenting
visions that were net at all soothing' or
quieting to the tired out quill-driver.
PERSONAL.

WHAT COL. KING THINKS OF THE
ELECTION OF CARLISLE.
We chanced to be down at the depot
last Saturday evening, when the pas
senger train on the East Tennessee,
W . Ve 'mm m
y lrginia ana ueorgia ranroaa going
east, arrived, and presently, we noticed
Col. O. C. King: 1 one of the cars io
close and animated conversation with a
strange gentleman of rather fine appear
ance. I no strange gentleman seemed
to be doing most of the talking, and
from our position we could not help but
overhear a detached word now and
then, such as "Specular," "Simonite,"
"Manganese," "Roofing Slate," &c,
Ac. After the train departed, seeing
Col. King on the wlk, we accosted bim
and took the liberty of inquiring who
the gentleman was with whom he bad
been conversing in the car. He replied:
"That is a gentleman whom I hav
had employed for the past two months
examining my mineral lands in Cocke
county."
"May I inquire," said we, "what has
been the result of his examination?"
"I have no objection to stating," said
be, "that he has cursorily examined
about 2,000 acres of my lands. At sev
eral point he has made closo and care
ful examinations; haas made several
opening, ana exposed tbe ores to a
considerable extent. He reports the
iron oree at several places as of incalcu
lable extent, and of remarkable purity;
easy of access from the railroad and
tbe river; some of them in close prox
imity to splendid quarries ot limestone,
also on-my lands, and all of them ad
mirably situated for both mining and
manufacturing. The lands are, for the
most part, heavily timbered, and tbe
ores of a character suitable or making
tbe finest of charcoal iron and steel."
"Was this gentleman looking at your
lands with a view to buying them?" -
"Oh! no. He was introduced to me
by a friend in Louisville, as a practical
miner and mineralogist, having a large
experience' in iron ores especially. I
knew I had vast quantities of iron orr
in Cocke county, and I believed them
to be fine ofes; but I desired to hav
hem examined by an expert , in tbe
business; so, I employed thisgentleman
for that purpose."
"Has be completed your work; and if
so, does he remain in this country, or in
he returning North?"
"He has completed the work for
which I employed him, and, I learn
from him, that he is now on his way to
Pittsburg."
"What arc your prospects fer indue-
in? capitalists to invest in our iron
ores?"
I think they are very good."
"Will not the election of Carlisle
8pe&ker, and the prospect of a reduction
of the tariff militate against the devel
opment of our country?"
"No, sir. On the contrary I am con
vinced that our country has much to
hope for from a reduction of the tariff
on iron. As long as our uovernment
continues to pay the manufacturers of
iron a bonus of $9.50 per ton, tbe wealth
now invested in that business will re
main in Pennsylvania, notwithstanding
the fact that, in order to make iron at.
all, they have to haul two-thirds of their
ores by rail and water from 1000 to 1500
miles to their furnaces. In East Ten
nessee we have all tbe different kinds of
ores, and the purest otfl in the world
and they lie close together, but we
haven't the money to build furnaces and
mills. Let the Government withdraw
the bonus it bow pays the Pennsylvania
manufacturer to haul bis ores from
Lake Superior and Iron Mouutain, Mis
souri, and he will soon be forced to
bring his capital to Tennessee where
the different kinds'of iron ores are in
juxtaposition, and in close proximity to
coal, and where there are 18,000,000
acres of virgin forest waiting to be con
verted into charcoal; where wo can
make, from our native ores a charcoal
iron that will compete flat-fooled, with
out protection, in any market in the
world, with tho finest charcoal iron that
can be made in Sweden. The Ameri
can people will not submit much longer
to the outrageous injustice the rob-,
bery which the tariff laws have inflict
ed for more than 20 years. In a few
years East Tennessee, North Alabama,
North Georgia and Southeastern Ken
tucky will manufacture - iron for tbo
Union; and when our water-way to tbe
Gulf is opened, our iron masters will
ship their surplus to England they will
"carry the war into Africa." .Let Cou
gress cut off tho bonus which it has
paid for 20 years out of the pockets of
tbe people to the Pennsylvania manu
facturer, and it will, at tbe same time,
throw down the only serious barrier to
