JAMES GUTHRIE, Wee President.

notwithstanding there is a good deal
of complaint and croaking, We would not be sur
prised if the wheat should turn out pretty fairly
The frost and fly have worked some injury but on
strong lands it looks heavy and healthy While the
crop will not be ything like large as last year.
the prospect at present is that it will be fully up
TO the demand. True we have seen fields that will
hardly nay for gathering, but the same lands have
not brought a crop Of anything for the last ten
years. 1t is not to be expected that lands which
have been run for years in wheat and corn, will
yield as beautifully as when first opened, without
some restoring process on the part Of the tiller.-
Rest and nourishment are as necessary to the sus
tenance Of the soil as to the human system Yet
how few of our farmers ever think Of il; and how
many attribute short crops to providential causes
when the truth Of the matter is there is no fertiziug
force left below to push the crop up. McMinn is
the largest grain-prOducing county in East Ten
nessee, yet you seldom pass farm that does not
show evidences Of injury by bad tillage. The same
is true in regard to other counties. Lands that
now, under the most favorable circumstances don't
yield more than ten bushels to the acre, could in
few years be made to yield thirty bushels, and with
less labor and certainty. There is more profit
in farming hundred acres well than three hundred
it is usually done. But agricultural friends
will find all these things out after awhile; and when
they do, we shall hear less of ''bad seasons" and
''balf crops" Athens Post.
MYsTERIoUs.-Some time in the month Of Feb
ruRry last, there was man by the name of Come
LiHs, came to the house Of Mr.. Vim. Langford
gentleman living three miles north of Jackson, and
staid all night He stated that he had been at
work for Mr.. Conn, of this county. He said he
a carpenter by trade-that he had been visiting
Jackson once or twice every week for some time
past. He was on his Esy to Kentucky, when at
DIr LangfOrd's-had been from home twelve months
lived in Kentucky when at home-has a family.
He left satehel of clothing, books, Sc, at Mr..
Langford's, and said he would call back in a few
days, since which time he has not been heard Of
It was a bad spell of weather at the time, and he
was in a very feeble state of health No doubt his
family are much distressed about him.

NASHVILLE AND LOUISVILLE RAIIROAD.-The
Galladn Examiner says;
just upon the heels Of The faur pas by which this
end Of the raiHad was cut out Of the iron which was
designed for it, and had been unexpectedly stopped
at Louisville, comes the reliable intelligence that
sufficient quantity has been secured to complete the
road from Nashville 90 Gallatia, and that several
hundred tons have already arrived and been deliver
ed at Nashville. A locomotive, ohristeRed Sumner,
has also, been shipped and will be al Nashville in
few days. So after all the threatened trouble, we
NAV reasonably expect railroad trip to Nashville
bv September or October. We trust that it may
even be pushed along in time for the fall Fair.
For these happy results people owe their thanks
TO the energy and right disposition of Chief Engineer
Geo. Macleod, and the active CO operation Of the
Assistant, r. Mcleod and Col Guild the vice Presi-
dent who have been unremitting in their efforts to
ensure the completion Of this end Of the road
In this connection theI following letter from Mr..
Guthrie TO Col. Guild will be read with interest

DEAR SIB.-Nc have shipped rs tons Of rails,
which left last Thursday, and have 100 tons which
we expect to ship on Thursday, and have purchased
1883 tons now At Pittsburg which We have given
orders to ship direct to Edgefeld, and hope will
reach you in all, this month. The Iron has been
purchased with your State Bonds at ssh, at Pitts
burgh payable in Bonds at par to this freights and
charges have to be added
Messrs. Wood, MOrrell Co., have, as yet, no
more Iron aud We fear they will not fill their cen
tract Of 5000 tons for this end of the road The
residue Of the Iron to carry you to Gaatn we shall
purchase and forward as soon as we can procure it,
We have forWarded the wheels and axles for five
