IINIIE Card Of james Williams, President
i of "The Tennessee River NJ. VI. and Trans
portation Co.," dated at Chattanooga, janua
ny 10th, has just been put into my hands, in
which the price of freight over HE East Ten.
nessec and Georgia Rail Road is ccntrastcd
with the route ria Chattanooga.
"Competition is the life of trade" and none
have right to take exceptions when fairly
and honorably entered into and conducted.
In answer to Capt. Williams Card have
only to say that Goods and Produce sent to
the care of the East Tennessee and Georgia
Rail Road, shall be carried just as cheap, and
perhaps little quicker than by any other
route.
The Freight Cards that may issue from time
to time from Chattanooga will govern the
rates on the East Tennessee and Georgia Eaii
Road and the Steamboats, running in her CON
nec.ion, and as we do not ex )ect patronage
unless we work as chenp as others, none need
fear being ovcrchargcd or having their Pro-
ducc or Goods delayed.

Mr. H. q. Farrell's Arabian Linment has
cured some bad eases here, which every other
remedy had failed in; one was white swell

twelve years old. The leg had withered away,
and was so contracted that he had no use Of
it. Three doctors had tried their skill upon
it in vain, and lie mas fast sinking to tile Craze,

HOW TO EDUCATE A BUSINESS MAN.

HOW TO EDUCATE A BUSINESS MAN.
We copy the following excellent article
from "Fredley's Treatise on Business
In the education Of business man, it must
never be forgotten that his future will be u
life Of action, and not of study. Great care
must, therefore, be taken that the health be
not impaired in Il strife for useless honors,
that the feelings be not suffered to grow over
the sensitive in reclnse contemplation, no.
the mind lose its spring and elasticity under
II load Of cumbersome and impractical learn
inc. 1t has been said at least one.fourth of
the students of colleges leave them with i'm
paired health: full One-half are too sensitive
to bear the rude jostlings of the world; and
perhaps, two-thirds ofthc balance have some
defect that would seriously mar the happi-
ness and usefulness of life. 1t is wonderful
how many parcmts spend money which they
can i'll spare, to unfit their sons for all future
usefulness. A collegiate education cannot
be recommended, and if attanablc, is not de-.
sirablc. A counting house is the business
mans college: When the youth has finished
his course of preparatory education, ut
school or private seminary, under the charge
of an able instructor, who teaches rs much
by conversation as bya prescribed course, he
should go into n counting house whatever may
be his future occupation. 1t is there that he
will learn order, method, obedience, and nc
qu-c u knowledge Of life, and the business
Of life. 1t is there that he will learn the val
ne Of time, and the value of money-two
very important things to know. Whatever
of concct lie may have brought from the
village academy is soon rubbed out of him.
lie learns to obey, to submit, and be patient,
to endure rcproof without anger, and to
bear contradiction with good humor He is
obliged to keep his wits about him. to decide
quickly, to have accurate eyes, and truthful
ears and to learn that there are Just sixty
minutes in an hour. A contingencies edu-
cation will be of advantage to every man
Whatever his future occupation may be. A
moral education need not he dwct upon
This is especially work of sclf-cuI,ivation.
No ones principles can be called temptation

cal conviction, and for which repeated sacri-
fees have been made. As ability to commu-

verSation, is qualification that especially fits
man to be u teacher it should not be over

A CITIZEN.

Mr.. EDITOR
1t is a we'll known fact that Cascade is rap
idly rising through the enterprising spirit of its
merchants, and that the country around is re-
markable for its superior soil, its good water, fine
atmosphere, and the industry of its citizens
Here is fine water pc wer, and on the stream
stands Mr.. Chew s mill, whose flour is so high
whatever direction you please you see various
Improvements going on. Travellers who come
in the stage from your city and stop at one of
our hotels that they may pause and look around,
see several large stores and dwelling houses
going up, in addition to more that were built
last year. The mechanic is active at his bench;
the merchant is busy with customers in his store;
brick makers in several yards are found at work,
and the smith is at his forge-so that every one
seems to be alive, active and carrying on some
improvement.
If you walk out into the country it is the
same. Farms are improving, houses, barns, sta
bles and other useful buildings, are being erect.
ed Orchards are being planted, gardens are
being laid out, roads making, mills, flour
mills, school houses and houses Of worship are
being built in different places.
Building lots in the town, land in our suburbs
and farms in the country, are all rapidly rising
Those American citizens who come from the
east, or those fol. ign emigrants who come from
Europe with view of settling in the west,
should by all means take trip out to Cascade,
to see the town and country, before they 20 in
any other direction
IF you, Mr.. Editor, are kind enough to give
this place in your valuable Taper, you will
greatly facilitate the object OF the settler who is
seeking home, oblige the citizens IF Cascade,
and also your affect friend, JOHN Bates.
