NASHVILLE GAzErrE.-The printing
establishment of this excellent paper
has been purchased by w. N. Bilbo,
Esq, who, with Henty Nancy, will
still continue to edit it. Mr.. T. H.
Glenn, we are sorry to see, retires
from the department he has so ably
filled as local editor. He has our wish
for success, a long and pleasant life,
and, as death must come, happy one
to him. But the vacuum caused by
the loss of Glenn is filled to a hair in
thcperson of Jas. r. Bruce, who takes
his position. Jas. A. Laird & Co. also
make their "adieu," and call upon all
indebted to the office to make imme-
diate settlement to them.

can party and its noble candidate for
the Presidency. 1t does us good to see

good cause. Its labor will doubtless

Who can weigh your worth?"
Reading this ef'usion of the poet,
Upper, makes us think to tell thepeo-
pie that Messrs. Houghton e. Lough-
mailer have just received large and
beautiful assortment of these "monu-
ments of the mind" from which our
our excellent and ably conducted
schools can supply themselves with
any book, we think, they may need
While looking over their supply we
observed many excellent works of
fiction-not the insipid trash we usu-
ally find, but real neritorious produce
tons, such as Ernest Linwood,' by that
graceful writer, Mrs. Hentz. They
have several copies of this interesting
work, which, as a novel, has no equal
with but few exceptions. A writer
concerning it says: The main object
Of this touching life-story-in which
the passionate and jealous Ernest and
the loving and pure-hearted Gabrielle
figure as hero and heroine--is to illus.
trate how vain it is for one to seek, OF
to expect to find, enduring pleasure
and satisfaction In any earthly being
however noble or pure; to show no"
an all-absorbing, jealous love may in
aict not only on the lover and the
loved, but likewise on dear friends
suderings the most intense. The les
sons inculcated in it are as full of pu
rity and holiness as those ever uttered
from the sacred desk"
Messrs. H. & L. have many othel
new and popular works, histories, &c.
in their choice variety, to which VT
call attention. Accept our thanks
gentlemen, for that nice little present
1t will be read with increased delight

The LATE RAINs.-From all we can
gather out of our exchanges, it is GER
tain that immense damage has been
done to crops, buildings, stock, &C., by
the recent storms of rain and wind in
this and adjoining counties, but more
especially in other parts of the State.
Timber and fences have been prostra-
ted to fearful degree, and we fear in
many portions the crops have been Sc
riously injured, though not in our
county. Such a freshct has not been
known for many years.

this contribution to the literature oil

delineations of Southern life, society
and scenery, whether in the garb Of
romance, or in the soberer attire of
simple narrative, cannot fail to have Q
salutary influence in correcting the
false impressions which prevail in re-
