An Address. - TO TIIK rr.OILE OP THE STATE OF TENN SYLVAMA FROM THE CORPORATORS OF - THE U. 'S. CENTENNIAL BOARD OF FINANCE FOR TIIE STATE. As citizens of the state, in which the nation has ordained that the centenial ex hibition commemorative of our independ ence is to be held, the opportunity is now presented to jou to take your share in the responsibility resting upon the people, of the United States to see that the, exhibi tion, shall be commensurato ' with the eveuts it is to celebrate and , the progress it is to exemplify. Since the "World's Fair," held at Lon don in 1851, international exhibitions have been recognized as uniting the most potential and far-reaching agencies (or promoting the progress and the material interests of maukiud ever devised, and they are always especially beueficial to the country in which they are held. The late Win. II. Seward, when Secretary of State, said of them, in communicating to Congress the U S. reports on the Paris Exposition of 1SG7 ; "Their beneGcent influences are many and widespread ; they advance humau knowledge in all direc tions. Through the universal lamiuae ol the products of labor the artisans of all countries hold communication, ancient prejudices are broken down, uatious are fraternized, generous rivalries in the peaceful field of industry are exited, the tendencies to war are lessened, and a bet ter understanding between capital and labor is fostered. Oue of their most saluta tory results is the promotion of an ap preciation of the true dignity of labor and its paramount claims to consideration as the bans of national wealth and power. Such exhibitions have become national necessities and duties." Great liritian, France, and other lead ing powers have intrusted and entertain ed the world with such exhibitions ; Aus tria is rapidly completing one which will open in 1873, and it is eminently appro priate that America should assert her place in this respect, as she has in others, among the powers most actively contributing to the advancement of mankind. At a meeting of this body held in the city of Philadelphia on the 7th instant the followiug resolution was adopted : "KenoU-cd, That all national banks, and other incorporated bnuking or savings in stitutions in the state, are hereby request ed and authorized to act as agents to re ceive subscriptions to the stock, and that in counties where no incorporated banks or savings institutions exist, the corpora tors representing such couuties shall designate private banks or bankers to act as agent for such purpose, and each cor porator may desigoate to the Executive Cummissiouer such private banks in his district as be may deem adviable. AH agents appointed bball receive subscrip tions in accordance with tbe rules adopted by the United States Centennial Commis sion." It is confidently hoped and belived that all agents so appointed will cheerfully ac cept the patriotic duty for which. they !ave been selected, and in this way aid the important work. . In compliance with the resolution those agents will be prompt lysuppiied with subscription books in which the people may subscribe for stock. We are now called upon to take our quota of the stock, which has been ap portioned according . to the act of Con gress of June 1, 1872. on the ba?is of po pulation, and amounts to 91,341 shares, at ten dollar per share, calling for S13, 41U, tbe population of the state being 3, 521,951. - It is provided by the act of Congress, that, at the close ot the exhibition, all the property is to be converted into cash, and, alter payment of liabilities, the net assets are divided amnog the stockholders. No flattering promises, however, are made of great prospective profits from tbe invest uieut in this stock. The promptings of patriotism and a no less elevated motive bbould actuate us. . Many is tbe first and immediate re quisite for the successful prosecution of the vast labors of the Centennial Com mission ; and it must be, secured within the proper time, for the exhibition is to be international, and it is to represent the universal range of human industry and art, and all uatural productg, as well as all the varied results of hutraa skill, thought and imagination. Let us, therefore, arise to the work as one body, with such an organized move ment as will inspire a generous emulation aud secure the entire subscription for our quota of stock in tbe shortest possible time. The eyes of the world are upon this, the chosen fctate, which, above all, should be true to its heritage of that holy tern pie of freedom, Independence .Hall, the sacred spot from which emanated that sublime declaration, the corner stone of our nationality aud progress, tho palla dium of our liberties and our rights.

John Gibson , 15 C J- T.M'Intire, A WONDERFUL ESCAPE FROM THE , , . gallows., ; - Martin Baynard's Devoted Wife takes his Place in the Condemned CeU. Over five thousand people were assem bled on the 25th of October, at Ilender sonville, N. C.,for the purposeof witness ing the execution of Martin Baynard, one of the murderers of Silas Weston and his three children, but thay were doomed to be woefully disappoiuted. It will be re membered that two criminals have already been executed for this crime. Martin Baynard was also to have suffered the extreme penalty of the law when the other two were hanged, but he was re spited from time to time, to be used as a witness against;(the elder . Baynard and unother, who were also implicated in this horrible murder, under a statute of the Slate, which provides that a condemned felon can testify as a witness against other parties to the same crime. All the preparations wer8 made, the scaffold was in readiness and the crowd had been ar riving from all quarters for several days to wituess the tragedy. During his imprisoment the wife of the condemned man was faithful, constant and devoted in her attendance upon .him. A day did not pass that she was not in his cell for several hours, and, at the last moment, with a heroism worthy of a more noble cause, she saved - him from an ignominious death upon the scaffold. Tbe night that was to have been tbe last of Baynard's earthly existence had arrived, and upon the earnest, tearful and sorrow ful entreaty .of his wife, tbe jailer com passionately allowed her to remain with him for a lew hours in the cell. . Morn ing broke clear and. bright, and- already the assembled multitude : were astir, eagerly awaiting the-arrival of tbe hour when the executioner and the scafiold would do their terrible work; About six o'clock, A. M , the woman came to the jail door to be . let out, with her bonnet drawn down over her face and a hand kerchief pressed over her mouth, through which her heart broken sobs burst as the jailer passed her through the outer door of the prison. She walked sloply off, with a feeble gait, bowed figure, and vailing pitifully, giving vent to her great grief; and she was foon lost to the sight of the gaping guards and morbidly curious spectators. Breakfast-time came at eight o'clock, and the confident and compassionate jailer, with a meal the last the doomed man was to have eaten comprised entirely of tempting delicacies, repaired to the cell. The bars were removed and the heavy iron door was 6wung back, and the jailer entered, when a sight that made him shake like an aspen leaf met his astonish ed gaze. In the "further end of the cell, instead of the condemned man, crouched up in a corner.'was a woman in her night clothes. The plates and dishes with tbe breakfast fell from the jailer's hand to to floor, and were broken in fragments. He tried to speak, but could find no word for utterance, and as he stood iu actual despair the crouching figure arose, and, in the tones of a woman who thinks she has done a praiseworthy action, said, "Well, as Martin is gone, I reckon I had better eat the breakfast," and she forth with began picking up the scattered portions of tbe meal. Baynard had escaped in his wife's clothes, and was, doubtless, by this time, far beyond the reach of the county officers. The fchciiff, ' as soon as apprised of the circumstance, set out "in pursuit of the criminal with a pesse, but in vain; for, after scouring the country for miles, they returned without their prisoner. The assembled crowd gave expression to their chagrin in various ways, Done the least of which was an anxious desire on their part to see the woman hanged in the place of her husband ; and, indeed, many of them were firm in the impression that such would be the case. Having come to see "a hangin'" they were not particular as to whom the victin was, whether guilty or innocent, as long as their morbid curiosity was gratified It is believed now that Baynard will never be recaptured. The Layfayetfe (Ind) Journal of Nov. 15, contains the following curious enake story ;- On last Friday a citzen of Danville, 111., was buried. After the funeral cortege had 6taited a snake of; the blue racer species was observed following i behimd. It continued thus to follow until the cemetery was reached, when the serpent jumped into the grave and coiled himself around the box containing the coffin. It there remaiued until the sexton dispatch ed it and laid it out upon the ground A band of music beaded the procession, and the questiouis whether it was that or eomc other cause which led to the sioguhlar conduct on the part of the snake. -- Robert Bonner, editor of the Ayeio York Lethjtr, will erect a monument to Fanny pern. .

Cameron, THE NEW HORSE MALADY. Dropsy Produced by Exposing the Ani mals , in Unfavorable Weather. - From the New York Sun.' The horse malady has .taken " h new form. The new disease is called the horse dropsy, and is produced by expos ing the horses to bad weather before they fully recover from the disease, which they had been suffering. Last night repor ters of the Sun visited the stables of the various, railroads and stage lines, and at each found a few horses affected. At the stables of the Third avenue line, where about 2,000 horses are kept, twelve are afflicted with dropsy. The horses in the hospital were swollen . about t the thighs and hind legs, and when required by the attendant to move ever so little iu their stalls, did so with great difficulty. There seemed to be a stigness about the whole hind quarters, and a giving way of the hock, which made every movement not only difficult but painful. The sheath and belly, in most of the cases, were much swollen, and in a few the swel ling had extended to the breast and head. All the horses thus affected, looked dull and listless, although they seemed to feed well. Ten or twelve horses were in hospital from this disease, of which near ly all will recover. The dangerous stago of the disease is when the swelling extends to the breast in the region of the heart and lungs. Horses thus affected have but little pros pect of recovery. There is only one such case in the Third avenue stables. A few of the horses sent to the hospital last week have been returned to work. No cases of death are reported. . ' At the Second avenue stables only four out of 9G0 horses are laid up with the dropsy. All of these were taken into the hospital a week or more ago,' after work ing during a rainy day. They are fed on cut feed, with warm meal and shorts, are kept warmly blanketed. Dr. shaw is in charge of the hospital. The company lost eight, horses by the late epidemic, and now has eighteen or twenty convales cent. The doctor does not anticipate that the dropsy will become epidemic. -. The fourth avenue line has four cases of the dropsy, all of which will recover. There are about forty.five horses in the hospital, most of which are convalescing from the recent epidemic. In the other lines,' with stables on the East side, but few cases are reported, most of theuv being in a fair way to re cover;' ' ' ' ' ,: ' :' ' ''' The treatment of . the disease by the veterinary surgeons is the same in almost all instances. Acomite or belladonna is administered as a sedative, carbonate of iron as a - tonic, with gingerj gentian or carbonate of ammonia as a stimulant. Some have used liniments, and in a few instances rowelling has been tried that is, a string is drawn through the breast, producing a sore which draws the inflam mation away from the lungs., This method is resorted to only where the swelling has reached the breast. WHAT TOBACCO WILL DO. The effect of the use of tobacco upon the system is thus told by a correspond ent: ' We once had two acquaintances who were remarkable for their abuse of the weed. To such an extent did they use it, that . their constitutions were seriously impaired, and they determined to abandon the habit, to escape from a premature grave. It so happened that they made their pledges of abstinence at night, and the following morning they were some miles in the country on a fish iug excursion. . After tho excitement of arranging their tackle and throwing their hooks into the water had subsided, there came the quiet anticipatory of a "a bite." "Presently," said one of the gentlemen, who afteaward related the incident, 44 the logon which I sat commenced : whirling round, the just rising buu grew dark in tho heavens, ana all nature dissolved in a death like tremor, that 6eemed to divide my soul from my body, and I fell head long into the lake , Fortunately tho cold bath brought me to consciousness, and, reaching the shore, I found my friend pale and insensible on the grass. Rous ing him from hi9 stupor, we jumped into our buggy, leaving our rods, reels, and lunch disregarded on the ground, and galloping like mad down the road, never stopped until we reached a country 6tore, and seized, with the avidity of starving men, upon 6ome tobacco, but it was a long time before our systems were restored to quietness, and-' we were capable of cohernently explaining the causes of our, for the time-being, apparently insane conduct." BEES IN OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER. Bees, that in some. localities did, noth ing on white clover or on Linden have during' August stored goodly' quantities of .honey, 1'redeem.ing the time." The danger is that in their eagerness to se cure;, it, they; will cramp the queen for room unless watched, and thus go into the .winter with a few young bees. The more the colony is composed of young bees the more sure you are of its safety during winter.' To avoid this put an empty comb or two in the middle of the cluster in the place of full ones, or empty the honey from the centre combs. 'Ihe queen will occupy them with eggs, even as late as this. It is mistaken idea that queens do not deposittheir eggs now if they have room and the bees are gatheriog honey, th?y continue laying just as freely as iu May. You do not know how fast a colony is de pleted of old bees during the gatheriog of fall supplies, unless you have watched a colony, to ascertain. , - Take a crowded hive with the combs in the homestead all filled with honey, so that little or no brood can be put there, and watch it from week to week, and you will see how fast the number grows 'beautifully less." We have seeu one . of these so called "strong hives" dimished in a month from half a bushel to less than a quart of bees A colony can only be 'called "strong" when the brood, in all stages, is at least equal to its working force. Be sure now that every colony has so much brood that young bees will be plen ty during winter. Very strong colonies may safely be divided as late as this, and in many cases the two will winter better than one. Of course queens must be "iv en to both parts to secure safety. ' ' Those (and we hope there are many) who wish to try Mr. Homer's method of wintering.mustbe preparing now, remem bering, that his condition of safety are. 1. Young, healthy queens. 2. A quart or less of young bees. 3: At least fifteen pounds of honey to each hive. 4. A dark place that never freezes, but is not too warm, in which to ' keep them. 5. Plenty of upward ventilation. Bee Keepers, Journal. ; THE BIGGEST BEEHIVE IN ; THE . WORLD. In Loe Angelos county, on the eastern slope of. the San Fernando range of mountains, and in the immediate viciuity of the Learning Petroleum Company's oil region, there is the most wonderful collec tion of wild honey in existence. The hive is located in a rift, which penetrates the rock to the depth of probably 100 feet. The orifice is thirty feet long and seven teen wide ; four passages This rift was discovered to be the abiding place of a swarm of bees, that is reported as coming out in a nearly solid column one foot iu diameter. Certain parties have endeavor cd to descend to the immense store of honey collected by these bees, but were invariably driven back, and one man lost his life in the effort. Others have, at the expense, of much labor and money, built a scaffold 125 feet high, in the hope of reaching a place whence they could ruu a drift into the rock and extract its well horded ' sweets, but finally : ceased their work. Within four years the bees have added not less than fifteen feet of depth to their treasure, as ascertained by actual measurement, and it U thought that at the present time there cannot be less than eight or ten tons of honey in tho rock. A man named B. Brophy lives in a cabin not far from this spot, and obtained from the, melting of. the houey by the sun's heat more than enough for his family re quirements. All through that region ini mense stores of wild honey are found in trees, in the rocks, in nearly every place where its industrious manufactures thiuk for bees seem to think that it will be secure. :They consume u very small pro portion as the climate enables them to keep up operations nearly every day in the year, and flowers, of some sort are always in . bloom. It must bo a very severe season indeed when the little fel lows arc not seen abroad in vast numbers, busily engaged in their mellifluous work! It will take $30,000,000 to sutain'our army, and 820,000,00 to pay for our navy during the current fiscal year. The cane with which Pretou Brooks assaulted Charles Summer a heavy ebony weapon, with a long steel dagger was recently exhibited before the State Historical Society at Boston. HEROISM. A Mother Sacrifices Her Own -Life td: Save Her Child from a Horrible Death!' From the Evansville (Ind.) Courier. Night before last, about six o'clock,; the inhabitants of our neighboring city of Henderson, Kentucky, were shocked at the occurrance of a distressing and fatal accident which happened to a promineut and most estimable lady of that place. While Mrs. W. Lewis, whose husband is a leading boot and phoe merchant of Hen derson, was sitting quietly at home, alter supper, with Irer little ones gathered around - the family fire circle, her little baby, by some means, managed to turu the contents of a lighted lamp over it self. The clothing of the child immedia tely caught fire, and the frantic mother' seized it, and in her wild excitement, not knowing where to go, rushed down tho stairway toward the street. Her pierc ing screams attracted the atteution of Mr. Joseph Merryman, a tender-hearted and gallant Irishman, who was pass ing the house at the time. He met Mrs: Lewis at the bottom of the stairs ; her own clothing had caught from tbe burn ing garments of her darling babe, and he quickly seized and, by a very strong exer tion, wrested the child from her arms. Overcome by bis superior strength, she let go the child and fled into the street, screaming in a most heartrending man ner. Some one else about this time ran up, and taking hold of Mrs- Lewis, threw her to the ground and rolled her over to' suppress the flames. Sad to say, how ever, the dreadful element had done its' destructive work, and the uufortunate lady were carried back into tho house fa tally injured. She lingered in great pain' until oue o'clock yesterday moruing, when her spirit took its flight. Tho child by her sacrificing love and devotion, was spared, and escaped with but a few slight burns. CAUSES OF DEW. If the dew fell, it would fair for the same reason that rain falls: but dew docs" not fall, it is simply a deposit of mois ture, always contained in tbe air to a' greater or lesser degree, and which' when there is enough of it will always form oa any cold body exposed to the moist air, in precisely the same way that a cold bot tle or stone, taken from a cold cellar, and suddenly exposed in the shale to the moist, warm, summer air, will I esome wet; this is not sweating, ncr does the mois ture come out from the bottle or stone, as many people believe, but from the air. It is for the 6ame reason that moisture will condense against the window panes, when the air is cold . outside and moist inside, the moisture slowly freezing whilo its deposits form crystals of ice which we so ofteu admire in the windows. When the weather is cold enough, the moisture deposited will even freeze on plants and grass, and then we call it boar frost ; if i t dose not freeze, it is simply dew. The only point left to be explained, is, why does the ground become so cool during; the night; so much coolor than the air above it, as to cause the latter to deposit its moisture ? This was for many years a vexed problem, till Wells first suggest ed the radiation of obscure heat, which' takes place from the surface of tbe earth through the clear atmosphere into thV space above, and so causes the surface to : be coqjo much cooler than the air itself. He demonstrated this by means cf the' thermometers placed at different heights, and also by the fact that dew is ouly de posited on cloudless nights. Wbeu there are clouds, they reflect the heat, or pra vent it from escaping. The surface of the earth thus being kept from . cooliu" no dew is deposited. COFFEE GROWING. Not many years will elapse before Cali forn ia will become one of the coffee-"row-ing countries of the world. The Sance lito Herald states that a party of Costa Ricans. with a former President of that couutry at their head, have purchased a tract of land near San Rafael, aud among other employments designated to be fol lowed by the colony is that of raising cof fee. Coming fVoui a country where coffee is raised with success, these Central Americans ought to know some of the re quisites of a country for the business. Whether Sao Rafael is the spot to in augurate the uew enterprise is doubtful until demonstration has determined the question, but that there are portions of the State in which coffee can be grown, has long been believed Tho Southern part of the State has many localities where the experiment may be tiied with high hopes of success. Still, it is not impos sible that San Rtfael and other places in the middle regions of the State," may bo adapted to eoffeo culture. A few years siuce, the general idea was adverse to the possibility of growing oranges in in auy but the southern portions of tho State; but actual demonstrations have proven that they can bo cultivated as far North ha Chieo, and iu several of the gorges iu tho Sierra Nevadas. The capa cities of the country are growing upou us year after year, and the appareuily bold experiment of growing ooffee near Sau Rafael may be based cn superior judgment. A milliou caus of of green corn are be iug shipped Irow oae factory in Bridge too, Me. IT
