One hundred and nineteen wagons unloaded
al the depot here on Thursday the 9th. This
county will export, Of the late yield Of the
harvest, one hundred and sixty thousand bu-
shells. Other counties along the line Of the
railroad will perhaps do az well. The three
counties Of Bradley, McMinn and Monroe,
from the Information now in our possession,
we have no doubt will sell for export over
400, 900 bushels, at an average Of one dollar
per bushel. Here, then, is the snug sum
Of between S400, 900 and $500, 900 difiu-
sed among the people Of these counties for
the single article of wheat alone, the pro-
duct of a single harvest. How much wheat
did these same counties export before the
railroad was built, and at what price! Not
more than twenty-five thousand bushels, and
tha, small amount was sold al an average Of
fifty cents per bnshel. In The mean while
lands have quadrupled in value. and tie
owners have actually became rich by the en-.
Management, almost without an effort Of their
