From The following letter, which has been
handed US for publication, says the Nashville
Union, it will be seen that the loss of the +,
towah bridge will occasion no delay in travel,
and but delay of twenty four hours in freight:
ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 8, 1855.
DEAR STR:-The loss of our long bridge at
Etowah, will have the effect only of delaying
freights twenty four hours, aud advancing rates
cents per 100 pounds; both of which combin-
ed, we hope, will not lose US the spring trade of
your merchants. Every exertion will be used
to maintain a regular transmission of freight
fortunately we had ample rolling stock west
of the bridge at the time of its conflagration.

?. o. TENNEssEE.-Tenncssee is the most
various. and in some respects, the best state in
the Union. She uniies the north, the west, and
the south all in herself and has a climate which
passes from Alpine SHOWS to tropical heats
from cats and beans, to cotton and tobacco;
from mountains of iron to auvas Of corn
This state, so great by nature, has begun to take
a lively interest in her own welfare, and is NOV
ing ahead very rapidly. The copper mines RI
val those Of Lake Superior: her corn completes
with that OF Ohio; and Memphis, with her cot
ton bales, begins to think herself the Metropolis
Of the Lower Mississippi.
Tennessee has recently granted state aid to
the amount Of $4,000 per mile for iron; and
from 100000 TO 100000 each per bridge
over the rivers. Her credit is good, and this
aid will probably enably her to complete all the
railways which ought to be completed, in rea-
sonable time. Some twenty or more charters
for railways have been granted, under which,
the companies formed may claim the state aid.
