Loudon free press. (Loudon, Tenn.) 1852-1855, 1853-02-19

We learn that real estate along the line of our
railroad has and still continues rapidly to APP
preciate in value. In few years the almost
entire country between this and LaGrange will
be cut up into fifty and one hundred acre lots
and occupied by fine family residences. In
this way the wealth of the country will be in.
creased and the tone and character of society
improved at the same time, that the energies of
our people will be more fully drawn out and the
resources of our soil developed. All speed and
success to the railroad, say we.-Nem. Eagle.

LOU DON:
PROSPECTUS OF
THE LOUDON FREE PRESS,
For 1853.
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1858.

Having assumed the onorouS and responsible
duties of public journalists, we feel the just de-
sire to increase the circulation of our paper,
as it will not only increase our capabilities OF
doing good, but at the same time give us rca-
sonable remuneration for our labors. To ac-
complish this desirable end, we have determin-
cd to send out this Prospectus with a request
that all who feel an interest in the increased
circulation of our paper will send us the largest
number of subscribers they possibly can. Yet,
we cannot make this request without rendering
appropriate acknowledgements to several friends
whose exertions in procuring us subscribers have
not been unnoticed by us.
We deem it unnecessary to occupy lengthy
exposition of the leading features of the FREE
Press. Its political complexion is uncompro-
misingly WHIG-but we are truly glad that the
evil times of unrclenting political warfare has
for time at least ceased, and those so long and
so recently in antagonistc array, are drawing
together in friendship and in purpose, to mingle
united effort and united wisdom to advance the
interests and the true g'Ory Of tie la'd. We
look to the promotion of the interests of gricul
ture, of Manufactures and of Commerce, as
being BY far more important to the improve
ment of the country, than any political issue
upon which the American people are extensively
divided. These great interests shall have our
warmcst support. Our leading aim shall be to
arouse ppJlic sentiment to the Importance of
industrial progrcss-of enriching our fields, of
bcautifying our homes-of starting up the busy
hum of industry and enterprise.
As to the merits of the FREE Press it is for
the public to judgc-we can only claim that we
have earnestly endeavored to publish a paper
worthy of public patronage. 1t is filed with
readable matter--containing the latest Foreign
and Domestic News full and impartial quota
tions of the Produce Markets of Loudon, Au-
gusta, Savannah, Macon, Charleston, and Nash
vile, with occasional quotations from other i'm
portant points---tOgether with the prices and
number of Hogs sold in Cincinnati each week
during Packing season--alSo the prices Of Pork
at numerous other points, so as to give our Ira
ders a broad and correct basis of judgement in
regard to this important article of trade. In
n word, our paper is for the business men of
East Tennessee.
We are anxious to increase our circulation,
and have determined to offer the FREE PRESS
at greatly reduced prices to Clubs----money to
accompany the names, as follows

to make casks for Bacon. They commence with
an order of one thousand. MessrS. Bell, of the
Chattanooga Steam Mills, have from twenty to
thirty hands engaged in making Trels for their
flour and whiskey. This new branch creates a
demand for slaves. Thus, by the introduction
of some new business is the good effect felt on
many classes, directly and indirectly which
otherwise could get no employment Chatta-

HINTS TO You've WOMEY.-lf young women
waste their time in trivial amusements, in the
prime season for Improvements, which is be-
tween the ages of sixteen and twenty, they will
hereafter regret bitterly the loss, when they
come to feel themselves inferior in knowledge to
almost every one they converse with; and above
all, if they should ever be mothers, when they
feel their inability to direct and assist the pur-
suits of their children, they will find ignorance
a severe modification and real evil Let it an
innate their industry, and let not a modest opin-
ion of their capacities be a discouragement to
their endeavors after knowledge. A moderate
understanding with diligent and direct oPPlica-
ton, will go further than mere lively genius,
if attended with that impatience and inatten-
ton which too often attend quick parts. 1t is
not for want of capacity that so many women
are such trihng and insipid companions, 50 i'll.
