CHERRY STREEr.-We think it very evident that
the fashionable retail trade of Nashville will in
short time, be concentrated on this street. It's
width, peasantness and central locality would seem
to indicate this clearly. 1t is true, large and
elegant buildings to accommodate this trade have
recently been erected on College street. and others
are in course of completion. But no one can walk
that street during business hours without being con-
WINGED Of its unsuiableness for the business which
is principally transacted there. We refer to that
portion between Union street and the square. As
the enlargement and Improvement of the Market
House seems to have been determined on, we may
consider its location on the square as permanent;
and indeed the whole square has become market
space and wagon yard. The consequence is, that
the streets leading to it at certain hours blocked
with wagons and drays, and especially is this the
case with College street, which, during portion of
the day, is so INSTRUCTED with CARTS drays wagons
and carriages to be almost impossible, and posi-
lively dangerous to female pedestrians.
The retail trade is being pushed from this loCa-
tion and it viii be forced to retire before heavier
and different branch of business Taking ali things
into consideration we know no situation more suit
able than Cherry street. and here it will evidently
come, and we venture to predict that the merchant
who first has the boldness to take the step, and
erects an edifce for his business equal or superior
10 those Of College street. will secure the most vau
able Of the retail custom. and that his enterprise
will speedily be followed by others. Who will be
the man to make the first move?

= Pen wlth one Del1rium Tremains.

What. is the use of Southern men talking
Of their constitutional rights" if they sit qui-
city and see them outraged with impunity ?
Because there are men in this District who are
determined to present an unbroken front ia
defence Of such rights under the banner of the
gallant SIGUR, the Constifutionalist of Bayou
Sara, cam out last week against the move-
ment in a long article, in which it says:
"Mr. Sigur is the man for the crisis. to give
reality and earnestness to an idea; he is a man
of iron nerve and indomitable will, a profound
and finished scholar, a logician and a politician,
almost a statesman; the southern element,
composed as it is of good and patriotic men,
led by such q man, is not TO be despised. We
have faith in the virtue Of the men who are en-.
gagged in this important enterprise, but we
doubt the wisdom Of their course the moves
ment is sectional, and we tremble a: the con-
temptation of its consequences"
This would have all answered very well if
the editor had stopped here until, at least, he
had got over his trembling i; he didn't, howev.
er, and his nerves becoming more shattered,
he continues, and gives Us the following evil
dence Of a pen Nth the deEirium remains:
ALREADY we discern in the progress of this
movement sectionalism, the evil genius of Am
erica, rising into being from the chaos of poIi-
tics, with her matted locks streaming ia CORY
masses from her skinny brow, brandishing in
one hand the flaming torch Of civil dissenlion,
and il the other the clankinE chains Of slavery !;
at her approach, fields and Giles, manufactures
and fleets light up with their commingIed flames
the solemn and awfaI gloom that surrounds US
at her hideous yelIs, brothers, fathers and sons,
friends, citizens and relations, join in slaughter
ing combat, and fill Heavenand earth with dis
cordant shrieks of anger, and dying groans,
until the sable pail Of tyranny stretches its
folds over the silenced conflict, and ruin, death
and dark despair slnmber on the mutihated
bosom of crushed, bleeding and yanquished
liberty"
And the universal Yankee nation knocked
into a three-cornered cooked hat! Whew !
give US something to hold on to!

Nine Cheers for IberVfIles

From the article of the IberviIle Gazette,
which will be found in another column, our
readers will perceive that the name of Thomas
Green Davidson, as the Democratic candidate
for Congress, has been Indignantly torn down,
and that of the gallant Sigur run up in its
stead. Not only has the Democratic paper
there hoisted his name, but the Sentinel also
has placed it at the head Of its columns. The
people Of IberviIIe are UNANIMOUS in favor Of
the new convention. We hail the glad tidings
with heart felt delight. The example set in
the banner parish, will be followed by the high
toned aud chivalrous people of the other
parishes.
The people of East FeIiciana will vindicate
the action Of the new convention at the polls
in November. No day passes but what we
hear of some true and state rights patriot en-
rolling under the standard of Sigur. They
take delight 10 do him honor. Each day has
but added to his strength, and increased the
enthusiasm of his supporters.
As it is in IbervilIe and East Feliciana, so it
will be in the Northern parishes. The voices
of Carroll, Madison, and Tensas, will next be
heard in the conflict, marching in solid column
10 the support of the bold and talented LOUISE
anian. Catalonia, Concordia, and Avoyelles
will not be silent. The time is now at hand
when they should speak out boldly, like patri-
OTIS, the honest sentiments of their hearts.
They are expected to do their duty to their
country.
The hoarse mutterings of the coming cons
fict, in which the dearest rights of Louisiana,
Of tbe South, and of the Uuion will be %assaul-
ted and if possible destroyed, are already heard
by our people. To advocate and defend them,
We need a man of the first talents, Of unwav-
ering fidelity, undoubted integrity, and OF tried
courage Such a man lberviile has furnished,
and her gallant citizens--both political friends
and foes. ~joyfuIIy unite 10 Recommending him
to their fellow-citizeus throughout the district.
Their endorsement and their recommendation
is unappreciated and will not be unheeded.
We ask what parish, nav, what precinct, in all
the wide bounds of the Third District, can
Thomas Green Davidson carry?
The honor conferred upon Mr.. Sigur, by the
action of his felIow-citizens of both parties, is
the highest ever known in the political history
Of this State. The nearer home the more
highly is he estimated and the more warmly is
he loved while with Col. Davidson, the feeling
Of the people is exactly the reverse.
All honor to Iberyille and nine times nine for
her gallant son.

EAST FELICANA FOR SIGUR.-The Clinton
Democrat in speaking of the prospects of Mr..
Sigur, says:
East FeIiciana will as surely cast her vote
for Sigur as the morning sun will dawn on the
second day Of November next. Many of our
Oldest and soundest democrats, who had pre-
vious TO Mr.. Sigur's nomination taken no part
in the contest, have come boldly forth in his
support, while the young democracy are dealing
ruthless blows upon the sinking form of Da-
wisconsin, causing it to reel to the very centre
The Davidson men look gloomy and dispirited
and their loud boastings have entirely ceased
Defeat stares them ia the face, and they cover
at its approach.
To our friends, We say be of good cheer and
stout hearts; THE work goes bravely on"
