October 2-80. Billy Bringburst has a very large number of friends; indeed we doubt whether he could enumerate them himself without consulting the cen sus returns of Montgomery county, from which document not omissions would have to be made. Once a year Billy puts a select hun dred or two of these to a severe test of their friendship by assembling them in the dining hall of the Franklin House and calling upon them- to consume io his honor indef inite quantities of recherche and succulent viands. At such an an niversary we assisted last Tuesday. Now, we consider ourselves a very special triend of tb.9 hospitable land lord of the Franklin House, and went prepared to manifest our zeal by unparalleled gastronomic ex ploits, knowing that there would be very choice material to work upon, But we found our powers of deglu tition so far surpassed by those of other friends of our host that we sat by in mute despair of manifesting our friendship with a vigor ap proaching theirs.

The table at which we sat was occupied by Dave and and Ed. Hendricks and several of the Cooke family, and on our immediate right Mr. Thomas Toombs, of Crusman'8 great house, while at a table adjoining was one of the proprietors of the Tobacco Leaf and a select crowd of his friends, and soon the tables were covered with an inconceivable load of luxuries. Of course we joined the crowd in a valiant assault upon the banquet, but soon found ourselves distanced. The truth is that it is diflicult to estimate the enthusiasm of that crowd's friendship for our hospita ble entertainer; from the oyster soup to the creams and jellies, quantities of good things were disposed of with a quiet, unostentatious perseverance which we despaired of emulating.

We can only acknowledge, our friend's hospitality with profound appreciation, and if we failed to equal the demonstrations of his other guests, we are sure he will f. take the will for the deed. May he live and prosper through many future anniversaries, arid may he be surrounded by many friends ready to manifest their friendship in every needtul way, as well as by appreciative appetites. mortuary Heg-ister of for tne Mouth of October, 1880.

S. P. University. LIXES TO MISS WILLIE LIAST, Clarksville, Tenn.J VAL. The following lines to one of Clarksville most talented young ladies is taken from the Waverly Journal Oentiy round me twilight steals Softly full fair Luna's rays, While memory chants so merrily Of times with thee Ah happy days.

We parted just when summer's face Wore its softest sweetest smile When her bright new robe of delicate flowers, She donned with such grace, as us to beguile. Yes, then we parted Was buoyant with and though my heart. Was buoyant with hope, andlight and free, It pined to fly back o'er the murmuring pined to fly waves To see if, in absence, thoi'd'st think of me. Now autumn plays her mellow tune Upon her harp of withered leaves. Hut still as origin as day in June, Are the thoughts of tnoe, 'yliieh niemory weaves.

And though gray winter's blighting breath Will soon be whistling In my ears It can ne'er chill my heart but defiant I'll sing, time strengthens love, and misfortune endears. In the years to come, when other hands Shall make your heart strings melody, I hope that one soft echoing chord Will whisper to thee again of Elsie.

Terrible Conflagration The Lunatic A 1 ti Burnt Down at St. Paul, Minnesota. Seldom does it fall to our lot to record a calamity so shocking in its attendant circumstances as that which occurred at St.

Paul, Minnesota. On Monday night, the 15th the south wing of the insane asylum was found to be on fire. That wing was occupied by the male patients, who of course had to be set free. Some of them refused to leave their cells, and those who could not be forced or persuaded to do so were either burned to death or suffocated with smoke. Others were probably frozen to death, having fied in ail directions through the snow.

The number ol lives lost is estimated at twelve or fifteen, but cannot be certainly known, as many are missing $ho cannot yet be accounted for. Many more than that number are badly injured. The following description is from the Pioneer Press A special dated at 1 a. m. says the scenes at the burning of south wing of the hospital were heartrending in the extreme.

So appal has rarely been witnessed, and I trust may never be again. Tlie pa-j tient.s in tlie annex wing were males. Many 4t'thein refused to leave the building at all they rat) ifVand down tlie halls, screaming and crylug and actln JSedlamites. They were, of course, those who 'coijld liof oe coaxed nor forced out of the building. and became the unhappy victims of the flame, and suffocated in the pile of fire.

Other were saved, some by ladders and Others by leaping from windows; some were nearly riude, some shoeless and hat less, and 811 were exposed to the exceeding cold of Chfc night. Many of the poor, demented in-mates 'Med, qif if for their lives, and could not be overtaken r-r xati ned. Their sufferings In this frightful condition can better be imagined than described. The'whole is fearful to contemplate and InfpOS. sible ti.

describe. The poor dazed Inmates of tne asylum, who had escaped the flames aud were at large half-clothed, were to be ioen in all directions flying in wild fright from luoss who attempted to save them. I'lio air was l'Ht'er cold, and the poor wretches, with half-naked bodies and bleeding feet, were running about l)idlnjj In alleys and dark comers! It was a sight, onoe seen, never to ha forgot I en. The court-house is rapidly ap- preaching the stage at which it can be occupied for business purposes, The plaistering is now nearly com- pleted upstairs, and the handsome coved and ornamented ceihng3 of the principal court-rooms give a noble finish to their Imposing proportions. The contract for this part of the structure is taken by Mr.

II. W. Jackson, and the work is carried on under the supervision of Mr. Belots, who shows himself a first-rate mechanic, with true artistical taste. The truth is that there 1 notiw lng in the way of either substantial or decorative Jrk which our Clarksville mechanics are not com-I vetcnt to under'ake.

"I fail to see the necessity," was the reply when a similar proposi tion was advanced in behalf of the French peasantry likely enough there will be readers who will have the same reply on the tips of their tongues when they read the title of this article. "I can do very well without a newspaper," such, men will say; "my ledger is reading enough for me I fail to see the ne cessity." We do not pretend to think that we have many such renders oa the contrary, all, with very- few exceptions, will be ready to admit that good journals are a necessity to every prosperous community. Did We not think this we should not be at the trouble of writing the present for it is only intended to interest those who appreciate the value of the newspaper press.

Well, then, we will suppose" ourselves addressing a bona fide subscriber one who read3 his paper and pays his subscription. You get your paper and you read it; we trust you find either entertainment or instruction in it, ot both We have expended labor, both bodily and mental, in endeavoring to make It acceptable to you. You also pay for it, and, as ou pay all we ask for it, we can have no dissatisfaction with you. But what we want to impress upon you is that your two dollars a year is far from paying for what you get. There is not a paper published in Tennessee which, if it had only Its subscription list to rely upon, couia continue its uasiness tor a week no, not if all suDscriDers paid up punctuaUy.

To run a newspaper (especially in a place no larger than Clarksville) every knife must cut. The proceeds of the advertise ments, the job-printing, as well as the subscriptions, are essential to the support of the concern, and if anyone of these fails, the business can no longer be carried on at a profit. and job-work these are the three feet that journalism stands on, and the greatest of these is the advertising. This brings us to the point we are aiming at. We have to state it as a fact that the advertising business in Clarksville is falling off to an extent very seriously affecting journalism as a business.

Concerns which used to have a standing advertisement the year through now adver tise once in the spring and again in the fall, when they are getting their newgoodsin, and leave the columns a blank the rest of the year. Others who used to be frequent advertisers now do not advertise at all. The job-work is a good deal the same. Show companies carry programs and posters with them ready printed, and think they do a good deal for the local press if they get a date or two printed to paste over tne posters and leave two or three tickets at the office, and even for this they expect a preliminary notice and a critique after the performance, and are highly dissatisfied if in the latter their geese are not cried up as swans of the first magnitude. But this is beside our present ques tion it is the advertisements we are speaking of at present.

It is no grievance peculiar to this paper we are insisting upon, uur neighbor of the Tobacco Leaf has recently had two editorials on the same subject, and without them or without the present article, anyone who knows what the newspaper business is could tell by a mere in spection of the two papers that there are not enough advertisements in them to make their publication a paying business. It was not so always we could point to several concerns now doing a large business, the beginnings of which we confidently claim were due in a large measure to advertisements in the local papers of the town. Of course they have a right to judge whether their business still needs that aid or not; they seem to think not, yet we venture the opinion that they will not find it to their advantage to kick down the ladder by whose aid they rose to their present height. Clarksville has her rivals, and they seem to think advertisements of some importance. Look at the papers printed in Hopkinsville, in Paducah for that matter look at the Guthrie paper, and se them all crowded with advertisements, wfciiU Clarksville seems only anxious to hide the light of its commercial facilities from the eyes of the world.

The truth is that papers can't be printed on the resources now supplied to them, and those who are interested in theprosperity of the place have to determine whether that prosperity can be maintained without the publicity derived from local newspapers. Fire on the Kouthslde. We have to record with much sorrow the destruction by fire of Mrs. John's residence, just across the Cumberland. The tire took place last Saturday night, the 13th at two in the morning, and the progress of the flames was so rapid that scarcely anything could be saved.

Indeed it was only by considerable exertion that Mrs, Johns herself, who is an aged lady, and was sick at the time, could be rescued from the burning house. Even her wearing apparel was con- sumed, her removal having been effected in her night-clothes. There was no insurance, and be- sides the pecuniary loss, everything hich had contituied the solace of her life is gone. Mrs. J.

is a huly of literary tastes, and had a largo i collection of periodical literature, which is all lost, as well as a gold watch which has been fifty years in her possession. She was taken to the residence of Mr. C. Byers, where slve received all possible kindness and attention. I No conjecture fo be haz-'' arded as to the cause of the fire.

The absence of any conceivable ori-i gin has suggested the theory of incendiarism, which is only rejected on account of the shocking atrocity which such a supposition would imply.
