More of the Hurricane.

A correspondent of the Memphis
Appeal under date of Perry, Carroll
county, November s, gives an ac-
count of violent hurricane in that
locality. The house Of D. P. York
md outhouses were destroyed, ant
his wagon and buggy blowed to
pieces, even to every spoke being
blown out The correspondent
says:
| also hear of several other hou
ses injured or destroyed, among
which is that OF s. H. Ferguson
Esq. all of his chimneys down.
gin house destroyed, with all of bis
cotton he had gathered, and fifty
bushels of wheat; also the houses Of
w. G. Gowan, Mrs Holley, Thomas
Rumley, Bennett Crawford, &c.,
blown down and Mr.. Caroford's fami.
ly severely injured. Mr.. William
Warmath, of Davi dson county, and
lady, while on their way to Hay
wood encountered it near the dwell
ing Of MIR. York, and had his bug.
gy entirely blown to pieces and Mrs.
Warmath dangerously if not fatally
injured. She was blown forty or
fifty feet, and injured about the
head and elsewhere. All of this
and probably more occurred within
the space Of four miles in length,
the track of the whirlwind varying
from two-or three hundred yards to
a half mile wide. Probably other
damage done above and below.

Many of the winter apples "a light
crop are ungathered, and the strong
wind shook off bushels ofthem down
into the snow. Buckwheat "a great
crop) is standing out in the sheaf
and corn in the shock. Grapes are
on the vines, and scarcely ripe. The
Thermometer stoed at the freezing

TERRIBLE HURRICANE.

A most destructive hurricane pass

Business in New Orleans.

We find the following reports Of
the manner in which negotiations are
effected in New Orleans, for the pur-
chase Of Cotton. In the Picayune, of
the 18th inst:
1.-THE arrangements for cotton pur-
chases are shifted in every possible
way. Here there is clean cash
transaction, there half cash and half
paper, then again part cash, part pa
per, part certified check, and part
suspended bank notes; in fine, no eff
fort.is spared on the side Of buyers
to bring in their orders before they
are countermanded. In one or two
instances parties who had drawn goi(
from the bank, and finding the bur
den Of boarding too enormous, came
lin and relieved themselves by takin.
a few hundred bales of cotton. The
consequence on she whole was, tina
the bulk Of the operations settled OIL
basis of ten cents for Middling.'

A very nice affair for the lawyer

A very nice affair for the lawyers
concerned, occurred recently in
Michigan. A farmer, passing the
tull-gate Of plank road near Rea-
ding, was offered brass cent in
change. by the gaIe-keeper. 1t was
refused, copper cent demanded, and
a fight tnsued The toIl-keeper was
arrested and fined SO; then the
farmer WAS arrested and fined the
same sum. The farmer then sued
for the one cent, and when the case
finally ended, with fines, costs. kw-
yes fees. &c, the twain vi have
spent S57-a pretty sum to pay in
interest on Que penny III these hard
times.

Tennessee Railroads.

We have received a very interest,
ing pamphlet : Report to the Gen.
eral Assembly, on the condition O
the Railroads in Tennessee, by r. G
Payne, Road Commissioner" from
Taze. W. Newman, Esq, of the
House of Representatives. The
Nashville Banner has give an alb.
stract of the Report, which we give
below in lieu of one we had partially
prepared
The total length of the twenty-one
railroads already projected is 1912
miles, of which 635 miles have beer
completed. The estimated cost o.
1855 miles Of these roads is S2S,.
844,759, an average of $40, S26 pei
mile.
The State aid granted to the roads
whose costs is given, amounts to
Sl6,406,100 90.
The whole sums pledged to the
companies which have completed their
roads, or placed part of their respec-
tive lines under contract, amounts to
$19,096,000 The amount gram
ted to the finished roads, and those
now ia actual progress is $l5,4Sl,-
100000, leaving S3,6l5,000.00, the
sums pledged to the companies which
have suspended operations. It is
confidently estimated that the pres
ent and prospective liability of the
State under its General Internal I'm.
provement system, will not exceed
sixteen millions Of dollars.
It is stated as fact highly cred
liable to the Tennessee Companies,
that they have uniformly met the
interest on their State debt. This
has to be done by companies whose
roads are in progress, when the work
itself can pay little or nothing, and
when the constantly recurring, and
heavy claims of contractors have also
to be met
The following is list of all the
roads in the State, with their present
condition briefly stated:

A wonderful instance of female
fortitude is recorded in the Red
Bluffs Beacon. The Indians attack.
ed train Of six men, one woman,
and child. They killed all the
men and the child, shot its mother
in several places with arrows, scalp
ling her and stripping the clothes
from her body, She WAS perfectly
conscious of what they were doing,
but feigned death, and let them tea,
the skin from her head without Civ
ling signs Of life, knowing that il
she did, they would either dispatch
her at once or take her into hope
less captivity. Suspecling that sb.
might still be alive, they took hole
of the arrows that were still stick
ing in her body, and worked them
about 10 the wounds. aud punched
them deeper in the fesh,and stamp
ell upon her with their heels. AL
this WAS borne without a groan.-
Another train soon came along, he
wounds were dressed, and she is, fas
recovering.

Paper Money.

The New York Day Book furnish
es us with the following:
Origin Of Paper Money.-The
Count de Tendilla, while besieged
by the Moors in the fortress Alham-
bIa, was destitute of gold and silver
wherewith TO pay his soldiers, who
began to murmur, as they had not
the means Of purchasing the neces-
saries Of life from the people of the
town. SIN this dilemma, (says the
historian) what does this most sa-
gacious- commander? He takes Il
number Of little morsels of paper,
Oh which he inscribes various sums,
large and small, and signs them wit b
his own hand and name. These did
he give to the soldiery, i'll earnest OF
their pay. 'How,' you will say, are
soldiers to be paid with scraps OF
paper?' Even so; and well paid,
too, as l will presently make mani
fest, for the good count issued pro-
ciamation, ordering the inhabitants
to take these morsels OF paper for
the full amount thereon inscribed,
promising to redeem Them at a fu-
lture time with gold aud silver.
Thus, by subtle and most miraculous
alchemy, did this cavalier torn worth
less paper into precious gold and
silver. and make his late impoverish-
ed army abound in money" TIE
historian adds, 1.-The Count de Ten
dilla redeemed his promises like 4
royal knight; aud this miracle, at
appeared in the eyes OF the worthy
Agapida, is the first instance on re-
cord of paper money, which has
since spread throughout the civilized
world" II the banks were like
"the 10y al knight" Count de Ten-
dilla, there would be some spark oil
chivaIry in their composition, bur
they have long since forgotten the
duty Of redeeming their promises.
Their little morsels Of paper 60 to
protest, aud even the judges screen
them from the pay ment of their
debts. We trust the time is coming
when We shall no longer be bumbug-
ged BY these scraps Of paper" but
when our currency shall represent
a real and not fictitious value.

The Journal OF Commerce well
says Of the effect of the 4essure
North and South:
The 'down-trodden slaves sleep
souudly all night, while the burst

less nights 10 trouble, both for the
past and future. There is great
crashing at the North among the

free thinkers-wbiie strange re-

Some three months since. al

Some three months since, an
amused chimney in a house at Port
land, Me-, was found to be occupied
by bees. A few days ago it was de-
termlheG to attempt to capture the
bees and secure the honey, when, GU
removing the coverings. both bees
and honey were gone! The saga
cious little fellows had wisely cUme
to the conclusion that they were no
longer safe, and they concluded to
move; and they did move, bag and
baggage. Not a particle Of honey
was left, and but small portions of
comb and wax, which the bees were
at work taking off too.

Paying Small Bills Due Mechanics

Paying Small Bills Due Mechanics.
1t is a very common practice for
individuals to engage mechanic to
do job5of work. the cost Of which
would probably amount to dollar
or two. The work must be done i'm
medistely, because it is generally
such necessity that waiting is not
possible. The mechanic puts aside
his other business and does the Job,
but instead Of being paid at once,
and engagements on both sides COM
plete, as they ought to be, he is told
to call at some future time for the
money. If he does so, be. of course,
has to be subjected to that loss oil
time, which was not included in
the cost of the job. If be repeats
his visit he gives offence, though il
is evident that having earned bis
money, he is entitled to it promptly.
and ne is the person who has reason
to complain that his visits have to be
SO frequent, compelling him to earn
bis money twice--once by effort to
collect it. Persons now fully able to
pay all such debts as these as soon
as the work is done. take advantage
of the present monetary difficulties
to delay payment for weeks, and
months. This is great wrong to in,
dutrions mechanics and results ir
mischief to the community, for the
trouble 10 collecting such debts has
grown SO great that mechanics are
obtained with difficulty in times oil
ordinary prosperity FOX jobbing aboal
a house unless they know their Gus.
toners make it a rule to pay prompt.
ly on the completion of the job.
