New FnRM-The popular firm Of Snow,
Mackenzie & Co, has, been dissolved, and a
new one composed of Messrs. A. Mackenzie and
J. w Wilson, under the style of Mackenzie
& WILSON, takes its place. Both of these
gentlemen are well known to our citizens as
competent business men. Their establishment
is one of the most complete in the South
West, and has acquired considerable repute for
the excellence of its Wares, whether Of tin,
copper, sheet iron, cast or wrought iron Cook
Stoves, or house furnishing goods The de-
mand for their wrought Iron Cook Stoves is so
great they can scarcely supply it. We would
call the especial attention Of all who want
Cook Stove worth having, TO these stoves.
There is nothing superior made.

We learn that 5000 Hogs have been sent in
the same direction from this city during the
week, Besides tits, our Packers are doing
an active business, notwithstanding little
depression in price, being about 50 gross
S3.50 is offered and ga asked in live weight,
with no sales, however, for the last two or
three davs--in fact the market may be con-
sdered dull with downward tendency.

tW- II would afford US great deal Of
pleasure to be able to answer the interroga-
tories Of our friend in Bledsoe county, but
We are not able to do so ut this time. All
we can say is, that we think it too early to
commence agitating the subject, by two or
three months. The Democratic State Con-
ysnton to nominate candidate for Governor,
will meet at Nashville on the Sth of next
month. In our opinion, three months there
after will be sufficiently soon.lor the Amer.
can party to bring their candidate into the
field.

Mons AGIrATIoN.-The fire eating prints
down South are discussing the expediency of
rc-opening the African Slave Trade, and the
Abolition papers up North are fercely de-
nouncing the proposition to ere establish the
horrid traffic in human flesh" So, between the
ultra men of the one section and the fanatics
of the other, the country is to hoveno repose
from the agitation ard excitement of the
everlasting niger question.

actual measurement OF course, her death

Hoes.-On Monday, oath ult., hogs sold TO
the extent of three thousand, in Cincinnati,
at prices ranging from $500 to $3.50 for
average size. The market, it is stated, was
easier, with moderate demand; There was
good demand at $3.50, but this seems 10
be below the views of drovers, who sell with
reluctance ut anything below 1878.
