I The Agent of the Associated Press in this city acknowledges that he sent abroad the lying dispatch with regard to Mr. Ashley. The Agent has been informed that the en- tiro 6f-.atnmrnt. ia nnnhalifiprllv fs1coo Kaco fabrication, jet he makes no apology, no re i traction 'J The effect has been to wickedly r slander and create prejudice against the He , publicans of this city. The authors of this i vile and devilish lie, : undoubtedly intended i to accomplish a vile result. Else why hSfve I they"spread it througtrihe country ? r 'They "Were honorably and fairly beaten at the - polls, and now by the most disgraceful lying and slander, they are endeavoring to wreak i vengeance upon the 'representatives of the triumphant party. ' We hope that the Northern press will note this, and that a demand will be made upon i the Associated Press to cease to be made L the a'gerits and instruments of villainy. Vil i lains have been and . are now " propagating their villainy' by this means. ' As for our i selves, forbearance has ceased to be a virtue, I end we intend to post, heie and throughout i the country, all such scoundrelism. The statement that Mr. Ashley on Friday i night in a speech said, tht "any colored man who voted the Conservative. ticket ought to i be hung," the Agent of the Associated Press -in this city is called 'upon to retract or stand branded' as. a liar. To say "I'll1 fix it up," ! 'will not clo. Retract! Retract ! ' - To say "I was so informed," will not do. It is his business to know that reports con- icerning matters of fact are correct before gi vmg currency to them. -RetractT Re tract ! i -.- ' r .. j i i ; Cannot Afford It : 1 To spend time in attending' amusements ; to spend money on amusements. Night 'amusements interfere with rest. - Just in proportion as the laborer loses sleep, he loses strengthas he loses strength he loses pow cr to work as he loses power to work he loses ! money. Labor is money. Because labor is money time is money. Use time then so that it can be converted into mney. Especially avoid all amusements that en courage, and lead, to rowdyism. Rowdyism is the enemy of profitable labor as well as of good order. Rowdyism; unhinges good morals. Without good morals time and la- ' bor Will hardly be" profitable.) Dissipation consumes the time that should, be devoted to labor. : ', -,: '" ', '- 7- Avoid all places of amusement that are at tended by bars or places where intoxica- . ting liquors are sold. Such amusements are , depraving and dissipating Any en joyment or pleasure which seeks " the aid of rum to make it attractive must be of Satan, , and tend to injure those who engage In it-- to unfit for the profitable discharge of the duties of life. -- Colored men' laboring men, you cannot afford to patronize such amusements. When the flauntiDg show bill tempts you, consult . conscience before , you yield to the tempta tion. . Not Hurt but Frightened.

Did voti ever drop in for a little chat with 1 a married lady friend who lived next door to somebedy, just to say pleasant things to her .nd have her: tell you, perhaps, hovf remark ably well you jrere looking, how you must Wve changed your beard, or something, it Was so extremely becoming,-or possibly re fer to the next door neighbors, and so while ihe time away 'till fashionable calling hours ? Did you ever do this and have the married lady friend, who was so charming last night at the soared, ope a upony o'u with a list of the trials tribulations of a housekeeper ? Howtcrribly the cook cooked, how fright fully! the washer washed, how outrageously the nurse nursed, etc ? It's the greates t bore in the world, ladies, fI am certain if you knew how we hated the history of pot, ket tle and dust broom how totally uninterest ed we were in the baby's eye-teeth that gave him so much trouble , (a spasm every other minute I believe) -how indiffer.ent we were to that severe attack of neuralgia in the spring cf 186-, you would extend your morn ing call topics to more agreeable grounds. Root Pruning:. The following comments from the. Western' Mural will be found useful to farmers whose trees refuse to bear. It is said to be a. remedy in such cases, and is well worth a trial : When a tree has produced nothing but wood for several years, the tendency may be check ed byjudiciou3ootpruning. This is done By opening a" trench around a tree, at a suit able, distance from the trunk. The disf ance musf depend on the size of the tree, for the rpots extend nearly as far as the -branches. The trench should be from one foot two ond a, halt feet deep according to the size of the tree, in order to admit of an inspection . of all the lateral roots. Some persons cut verr tical, or tap-roots, by striking a spade under theree, but itis not advisable to cut these roots, as they are anchors which hold the tree firm in its place. In opening a trnch around a( trec,;eare should be taken not to hack the roots; they should be cut clean-with1 a sharp knife, making a draw-out, the same as when pruning the branches. Much damage is sbinetimes done to trees in root pruning, by hacking' the roots with a spade, or cutting them too close to the trunk. ( The best time for this kind of pruning is in the fall., when vegetation is suspended. It may be done in the spring before vegeta tion commences. - Some orchardists think that August is the most appropriate month for this work, but the greater number prefer to operate in the fall, or early in the spring. Some persons do not open a trench, but merely cut a circle aroiind the tree with a spade a very imperfect method of reform ing the operation, as a great many of the rots cannot be reached in that way, and such as are reached' are hacked, instead of tjeingut clean. Persecntion of Colored Voters in Misis sippi. Correspondence of thd Chronicle. r- Uolly Shrings, Miss., Nov. 19, 1867. The election for convention in this country osed last week. The Republican ticket was defeated by threats, intimidation, and frauds. Not less than five hundred and fiftv black men were kept from the polls "by these means. v Tliey were 1 generally . told that 1 f they voted the Republican ticket they would get no employment or land to work. The draymen of this city (all black) were told-f that if they voted the Republican ticket they Would get no hauling to do.' The' most of them belong to the L'. L., and of course they voted: TheV all Went ud and voted at once and immedivtely a paper was ' started among me lueiuuttuis io get tuepi to; . sign agreeing to gi ve all their hauling to certain men who: were going to start drays, a3 all the old dray men.had voted the" Republican ticket. The country gave a majority of 213 against a convention. Almost everj white man who voted, voted against a convention. Mr. Wat son, the head of the Conservative ticket, is an ex-rebel Senator ; Dr. Compton, the next nian on the ticket, was chief surgeon of Gen eral Pembertoh's army during the Vicksburff: Chas. H. Townsend, the tail, was a member of General Washburn's staff while the General commanded at Memphis the last year of the wari-'.'He is now one or Andy's postmasters He sung the Conservative song, uBoys, don't vpte yourselves put or nouse and home," as naturally as any oinerreoec. JThe Conservative ticket was elected by 320 majority; ? The whole Conservative vote was 1,700, a little more' than 300 less than the white registered voters. yith all the threats ' falsehoods, and bribery used to in fluence the -blacks: not more than forty 5' of rthem voted uio conservative ticket -The whole black vote is almost two 7thousahd, scattered . through nineteen - precincts over this very large ' county All things consrd erecl, we feel as though we had gainedthe Kentuckiaks are emigrating to Mi3souri and a train of one hundred and twenty nine emigrant wagons recently crossed new ai bany ferry on their way to the latter State." Lands in Tennessee. If cheap lands a fertile soila mo$t salu brious and invigorating - atmosphere, a home market forthe products'of the soil, are the Considerations that influence immigrantr in their choice pfif utHr homes; says the State CQraptroller, in his recent report to the. Gen eral Assembly, then surely Tennessee offers them all, with fewer drawbacks itharr does ah v other State in the Union. . . . -r , ' " Situated in that happy ' belt of the State? where the icy fetters that, chain up,the ener gy and industry ot the Northern agricultur alist, for several months of the year, are un known; where continuous labor is requisite for the production pf;footl for all stock, du ring their hyperborean winters, and equally rpmnwil fmm h Rrtnrr.hincr heat and ener PTennessee offers to the immigrant that khap- pv medium where neither extreme is known : where through the winter . season, his stock mav browse the hills-andvaUeys,-not only sustaining life, but keeping? in. good condi- tion, taxing uis granaries uutiiiwe: iut meir sustenance. . ; : . - . .

Now that this objecuon is removed,: and that the large landed proprietors find it to their interest to cut up their estates, and sell or lease in such quantity as may be de sired, and at low prices, we have every con fidence that the tide of immigration - will soon set Tennesseeward. ' i The average value of land per acre, in the counties of Middle Tennessee, ranges! from twenty-nine dollars? and eighty-four cents per acre, and the highest average, to seventy-six cents per acre, the lowest average. The first valuation is for the most valuable lands id the middle section of -the State those of Davidson county, of - which Nash ville, the qapitai of the State,' is the, county seat, and consequently tile ' most densely populated:- The second and lowest valua tion is for the interior mountain . lands of Cumberland county, : an t undeveloped and sparsely settled section. 4 In Maury county land is held at an aver age price of $18 51 per acre; in Bedford at $16 39 ; in Williamson at $14 43, and in Giles and Rutherford af $12 40. This em braces the best improved and most produc tive tracts in the middle section. " The aver age valuation in Fentress county is' 92 cents; in Grundy 97 cents ; in Stewart $2 81; in Chatham $4 73, and in Montgomery $7 16. j In West Tennessee the valuation is from $32 22 to $2 74, embracing rieh and highly cultivated lands, the .highest price given be Ing for property in the vicinage of Memphis. v In the eastern counties, Of ; the State the average valuation ranges from $12 06 to 53 cents per acre, Knox county, ; with Knox ville as its county seat, has an average valua tion of $11 62, and Hamilton county, in (which is situated the town of Chattanooga, a valuation of. $12 16. The Comptroller's report, contains an interesting table, showing the valuation ot all taxable property of - the State, the average value of. lands, and the State tax for a series of years. , In. 1836 the rvalue of property of the State was $117,485, 136: the value of land was $4 per acre : the State tax on $100 of property was 5 cents,? iand tho poll tax was 12 cents. In 1861 the value of property was $361,477,846 ; the average value of land $8 20 ; j the State tax 15 cents, and the poll tax 35 cents. In the years of 1853 and 1884 no taxes were levied. This year the valuation of property? of' the State k estimated at $230,357,631 the aver age value ofjland $6 46 ; the tax 25 cents, and the poll tax $1- 25. Nashville Banner. Alabama Convention Changes Names of ' ; Counties. Much ado has been made by Conservative papers, because the Alabama Constitutional Conventionj has changed the names of cer tain counties'." A correspondent of the Philadelphia' Press thus explains the mat er : j ';; , I . ?. . : '. The last General Assembly of this State, in opposition to the wishes of the loyal peo ple, created; a number ot new counties tor rebel gerrymandering purposes, and named them after, inen prominent m the late rebel- lon. By the provisions of a resolution in troduced a few days agfc. the Committee , on Counties on! Municipal Organization, have been instructed to bring in an ordinance changing the names of all the counties named in glorification of the late rebellion anp tnose engaged in n, ana iew aays win elapse before such an ordinance will be -in troduced, and passed. The convention does hot want to legislate, except where necessity requires such action; but in this case speedy action is requisite. These names must be changed, and the counties, if they are . al- owed to remain upon the .map and retain their present boundaries," will be named for statesmen and patriots noted for their, devo tion to the cause of the Union and of liber ty. The most glaring injustice has been per petrated by the rebel Legislature, in organ izing these new counties, and some of them will be wiped out, bet the rest will be differ ently named.
