It' did uot attract so much attention, wpv did it require so many grent slcntices every way as did the hte Con feileracy. Nevertheless, 'jrue' State of Franklin'' existed, ajtid existed i:u the South. I'Like . the Confederacy, "the Sate ol Franklin," was boru . of scessiou. it lived exactly the same length of time .that the cou- I'dderacy lived just lour years. ad like the confederacy it col lapsed in blood and failure.

While ' Ex-president Da vis was forever .releglated, to pri vjlte Hie after his release, Gov. Sev iej after his rest oration to libertyj rose to higlu st distinction iu honors ii his state.

'1 he legislature of ihe state of Tennessee appropri- aied money neccessary for expeu- ce4 ofiemoval. The disiuterinem . - wis male under the personal su- jirvision ol lennessee s governor Ifn. Robert Taylor,; aud funds are being n uitrent to oi being raised ur a suitable nion- tie ol the State s great- 4 men. The state of Franklin was, as previously noted, the outgrowth of the fust secession in the history of oijr country. That' secession oc ciirfed directly alter the close of tbje revolution and under" the fol loviug eircumstaueec.. ATter the immediate close of the wr many of the old soldiers from Yirgiuia aud the C iiolinas emigra tel to the beautiful and fertile val lefcs of what is now east Tennessee. It was an inviting land no tairer ori more delightlul spot ot earth known than for the backwoods holme --fit is still to-day one of the loveliest spots of America. jibe territory then belonged to t be state.of North Carolina, that stjite wheu reachmg from the At "a. - . - lahtic ocean on the east to the Miss isippi river on the west, the north erji boundary thirty-six degrees thirty miuutes north latitude The part of .the tertitory lyitig West of thie Alleghanies was too remote from the seat of state government of pnh8 ('aorlina then at Fay etj-eviiie, lor tue western pioneers tdj derive or receive such protec- tiiiii and authority as tuey expect e or desired. The authorities t)f the state recognized this tact, and infule a tender .to-. the general gov- eitimetit-of the United States of a tlat part of North Carolina territo ry! west of the Allegany moun tains, to be placed uuder territori- al government, to be ruled by the federal authorities, the seat of the general government theujat Phila delphia. The colonists occupying the conn try lying along the waters of the Ilolston river this stream tht u known to the Indians by the nam of II ogoheegee these, Holston col onists as they were called, protested against this territorial proposition and, refusing to submit to the ac tion of the state authorities, they , declared a secession from the pa rent state. Delegations from all parts of the Elolston country as-, sembled, ' ami set up a separate government of their own. This government called itself the state of Franklin, and for four years all the functions ol a regular state gov ernment existed. It bad a legisla ture which enacted laws and even made treaties with neighboring powers. It also seutla delegate to the Congress of theUuited States yet, that body refused to recognize him. Matters grew to such proportion and in such defiance of the regu lar North Carolina authorities, who iusisted upon the collection of tax es, aud, the exercises of other now ers over the colouists, that the gov ernor of North Caroliuo felt called upon to suppress the "Holstou re bellion." He did it with one Col Tipton and a small body of state militia which met the lorces of the secession at j point ten miles east of Jonesboro, iu Washington coun ty, Tennessee, then the oldest town iu the State. A few lives jwere lost in the short battle which en sued. The leader ol the rebellion, as he was called, (Col. Seviei ) was captured or surrendered. lie was taken, iu irous, for trial, in. the state courts at Mirgaucou iu North Carolina. A few dauntless followers from the colonists oil the Ilolston, with others, followed and rescued Sevier lroui the officers ot of law, aud he escaped into the country west of t he Blue iiidge, where he afterwards evaded , aud defied capture, ilis rescuers v af terwards became among the first most famous peopleiu North Caro lina, -the McDowells being iu the number. Colonel Sevier aud Col onvl OcOowell, the fouuder of the North Carolina family, had beeu previously associated in the attack upon the British at King's Mount a in. Sevier's familyjhave likewise, become emineut iu the history of Tennessee. Col. A. S. Colyar, the iioted Nashville editor, politician and financier is a lineal descendeut of Governor Sevier. The legislature of North Caroli na at its first sessiou after Col. Sevier's escape from the state au thorities, passed an act pardoning, the arch rebel, Sevier those noble uronuiaus posseseu a grace. and g. ueiosity that never moved our uortheru brothers when sitting iu judgement on the other arch rebel Davis. North Carolina not only pardoned Col. Sevier,' but it admitted him to a seat in its legis lative hafls, to which he had been elected by his Ilolston coustitueu- cy, and it also legalized and perpet uated some of the acts or laws of the soealled state of Fraukliu. The patriots of those days was not such as we find today iu certaiu sections ot the country -men who illustra ting the eastern proverb never for get those whom they have iujared One of the state laws of Fraukliu has been often quoted aud made the subject of wit aud laughter. The law ful currency of the state, the circulating medium oi the realm, as the historian puts it was: 'Flax cloth, three shillings and six peuce per yaru: coon smus, a shilling and three peuce a piece; and whiskey, two shilliug aud six pence per gajlou." But even this primitive curreucy was sometimes couterfeited, as we are told, and by me sewing oi coons tans to 'pos sums hides. In this way oue long tailed coon and one possum hide couiu oe converted into wnat pas sed lor two coon skins. The great Daniel Webster on one occasion iu the United States Seuate attempted to4'poke fun," at one of his colleagues from the South, in allusiou to this com skin currency. The colleague became indignant, but t he aff air ended mors pleasautly than have some ol the remarks of modern statesman iu that august body. Governor Sevier was a great and impressive man who figured extensively iu ' the history of the couutry iu lour states. Yet the stu ueu c may searcu in vain lor any relereuce to him or to the state "'I Franklin of which he was the head, centre aud ruling spirit in many of the most pretentions vol umes of American literature seal ing with history or biography. As secession has cost the nation as much in blood and treasure and estrangement, it is a little curious that more ha not been said about x this first secession in the history of he nation; and it is far1 more curl ous and remarkable, that of all the secessions that have ever ocenred in history iu our governmental bis tory eiuce its foundation, only one should have proved a success. This was the secession of West Virginia from the parent state, the "Old Dominion." And still the strang est part of the history of this seces siou is that it was endorsed, ap proved and upheld to the bitter end of success by the very people tuo were at the same time engaged iu fighting secession iu their more re mote southern brothers. D'iiyuig the doctrine of a state seceeding, aud waging relentless war against those states that attempted seces siou, these people uot only counte uanced the secession of a 'tortion of a state from the mother authori ty, but the mother to n acquain ance in the secession of her children. This is a piece of Inconsistency which I have never seen explained by the statesman who took part iu all the proceedings. Patriots are supposed to wear the jewel of con sistency, but politicians of a modern type have no use for that treasure; not, for that matter, for aught ex cept that which serves their own sectional and party ends. ' Among the northern friends of Colonel Sevier who sympathized and carresponded with him in regard to the new state was Old Doctor Ben- 'ranklin . But it is due to his mem ory to state that all his r elation to the new movement were not incon sistent with those of the true patri ot. In all his correspondence with Colonel Sevier there is nothing re vealed showing that at any time was hea sympathizer with real secession. rom the great Pennsylvania!! the state received its name. It , would appear that Dr. Franklin had been solicited to become a sort of godfa teher to the new sovereignty. Some of the old pioneers insistedjon calling the new state the state of Franklin, in token of the frank and dauntless people who composed itsjpopulation. Official documents of the govern- meht were quite as frequently signed "Frankland" as Franklin.' There is another event in connec tion with the state of Franklin that is worthy of more than a passing motice . Ihe very first conference of the Methodist church in America leld west of the Alleghany mount ains was held by Bishop Ashburv, as he tells us in his . journal, in the state of Franklin 4n the spring-of 1788. The bishop then believed in the de facto existence of the state, of Franklin; just as the pope of Rome believed in the de facto existence of the southern confederacy ?that po tentate, the only foreign power which ever did recognize the confed eracy, flow many southern people how many others knew that fact that the confederacy had been rec ognized by one foreign power? In 1888 there was held, in the city of Baltimore, a centennial celebration of Methodism in America. In all the published proceedings I saw no reference to the entry made in Bishop Ashbury's journal a nuud red years before in the state of Franklin. W. V. MOORE. REPUBLICAN'S AT WAR. Chairman Eaves, of the ltepub cafa State Executive Commit tee Gives Secretary Harris the Lie and. Gets a Knock down. Raleigh, N.C., July 29. Spe cial.J J. B. Eaves, Chairman, and J. C. L, Harris, secretary of the Re publican State Executive committee, had a fight this evening in T. R. Pur nell's office. Exact details cannot be had, as they have tried to hush the matter up. Some say Harris accus- sed Eaves of underhand work against him when an applicant for the post mastership of Raleigh, others that it was something about the proposed Republican State convention. How ever this may be, Eaves gave the lie and Harris struck him a fearful blow between the eyes and knocked him down, when friends interfered and parted them.' Eaves left on the 5 o'clock train. ttg Hurrah for Branch! NEW York LETTER. One More unfortunate The New Telegraph Building Anoth er Oreat Iaily. (Regular Correspondence). The sensation of the week has been the disclosure of. the downfall and terrible death of a cigarette girl. And, startling as the details develo ped prove it to be, the case would perhaps have never come to light evcept through the accident of a de tective overhearing a conversation in a horse car. The clue thus found was followed up and a. story un ravelled worthy to rival the imagin ation of any writer of fiction . The victim in the case, unmindful of her sister's warjiing, lost first, her honor, then her life; and, right in the heart or: this great city, her body was secretly taken away in the dead of night and buried under a false naino so that as far as her friends and the rest of the world was concerned it was a case of ''mysterious disappear ance", and would forever have re mained so, were it not for the acci dent above referred. to. Not one of her acquaintances knew what had become of her until nearly two weeks after she had been buried in an un known grave, it is not my place to give details, and indeed the at tempt would be useless in so short a space. The guilty ones will be tried and perhaps convicted, and let us hope the case of this "one unfortu nate" will be a fearful warning to all whom it may concern. KKMODKU.INO TUE WK8TEKX UNION. The Western Union Telagraph Co. whose main office was recently heav ily damaged by Fire, has decided to rennxlel the bulliding and build four new stories. The building will then be nine stories high, with a flat roof instead of the mansard roof and tow er as previously. An addition will also be made on Dey streets which will make the building when comple ted the largest one for telegraphic purposes in the world. The seven hundred operators will have offices in the Dey street extension, and the rest of the building will be used substantially as before. Although the lire destroyed the company's $3,000 instrument, together with thousands of wires and batteries, the service was crippled but a veiy few days, and at this writing, everything is proceeding as smoothly as before the fire. ?

Therefore these instructions are given tojall who wish to help the physicians iand the undertakers to business and profit. Worry all you possibly can. AVor ry about your health. Worry about the health of Tour wife , husband , son , daughter. Keep right on worrying and all the time be afraid that some thing will happen. You will not have to worry a great while before all you thus invite will come and stay with Converse with 3'our household and visitors all you tan about sickness. Describe all the complaints of any kind and all. your family, friends or neighbors ever had. Talk about sickness, sores, boils, belly aches and biliousness at the table while, eating, and at all tinies possible. I Regale your visitors with recitals of all that is doleful, dreadful and dismal. lie real sure that 3 011 will soon be sick. Stay at home till you are sick. Don't blow your nose lest you bust your head open. Do not take a bath lest you have the pip or periwinkles. Talk as much as possible; about sickness, death, funerals, graveyards worms, darkness, .hell, damnation and all such that encourages to men tal gloom, spirtual despair and kid ney troubles. This will help' you to lie sick and to bring up in the place you dread. j Vay as little as possible to nature "s calls. This will help" send you to a doctor. Keep your house dark as possible. Have curtains thick and keep out the light. Think of hell and hard times all you can. To be out of doors and in the open air all you can, induces sleep, which is rest, which is Heaven. Therefore stay in the house as much as possibles Absorb all you can of the laches, grunts, grumbles and despondency of those whose pores need opening with soap and water. Encourage those who you talk to about their neighbors, retail all they can of scan dal and dirty foot gossip. This will help you to need a doctor. Thus you can induce sicknes to locate itself and your body in bed or the back .yard. Brick Pomeroy. r The Boycott. It lias been suggested by the At l.iuta Constitution that we boycott the North iu the event the I force bill i passed. j e do not approve the sugges tion. There is nothing ol the iroud spirit of the South in the boycott. It is au ignoble method ol retaliation unworthy the; man hood of the South. Il the i force bill is possed it will be over our irotests and in violation of our most sacred rights; but it will uot and caunot crush us. ' Consider, if you please, the Re construction period of our . history. Alps piled on Alps, and yet jwhen the hour of destiny came We j stood forth redeemed, regenerated and disenthralled by the omuipic geni us of Democracy. , So it will be again. They may bind us but we will break j their hands as Samson burst the writhe that bound him. Many of the people of the North are our friends, and in the day of more perfect enlightenment the better part of the North and West will come flocking to our stand ards. , Let us not be misunderstood. We are in perfect accord with those of our fellow citizens who favor the sustaining of Home Industries. The Journal has uniformally advocated the establsihmeut and support of industrial enterprises in the South, and it will not depart from the path it has pursued. It is right to foster the spirit of self-reliance and confidently enter into competition with all the world in whatever adorns society and ameliorates the condition of man, but let us uot resort to the boycott but rather stand on merits our and appeal to the enlightened judgement of mankind. The market for titled foreigners in the United States is now a matter of quotation. For instance, as giv en in the AVorld, Miss Huntington paid $200,000 for Prince Hatzfeldt, Miss Baldwell paid $100,000 a year for Prince Murat, Miss Yon: Hoff mans family have paid il ,000,000 up to this date for Marquis de Mores.
