simply because Of the unreasonable
rent asked for it and from the fears
entertained by many that it is not a
safe building. Uncle Joe Elliott, not
having sufficient room above ground,
is now engaged in excavating a large
cellar beneath his residence for the
benefit of some Of his tenants, and
earth is of so much value in the city

Justices Court.

'"A BEFORE JUSTICE STINsoN.-Catha-
rine Lambright made complaint
against Theodore Bentz and Charles
Ruhl for malicious trespass- breaking
down a peach tree worth IS, remov-
ing lumber worth so, and damaging
her windows to the value of Is cents.
Prosecutor Bennett appeared on be
half of the State, and Col. DENLY as
counsel for the defense. Col. DENLY
asked a severance of the case, and
called for jury of six men. The
jury was obtained, and Charles Ruhl
placed on trial. The evidence con-
WINGED the Court that the defendant
was guilty, but the forensic eloquence
of Col. DENLY convinced the jury to
the contrary. Many witnesses we're
examined, and much conflicting evil
dence was elected from the several
parties. The jury after short ab
sence returned a verdict of not guilty.
The other branch of the case was
continued until this morning, though
the complaining witness signifed her
intention to remove her cause to
another court.
The cook at the American House
and a servant girl, both of the African
persuasion, got into a muss over a
pan of dish-water, and the ungallant
cook slapped the girl, who made COM
plant before Squire Stinson. The
defendant was fined one cent, and
costs amounting to IS 80.
BEFORE JUSTICE WALKER. ohm
Brocher was charged with committing
an assault and battery on Louisa Eu-
lanstein, inficting upon her severe
injury. The ungallant John was
charged SIS 90, as a fine, and SO 80
cost.
John Brocher, rendered still more
ungallant by this melting out of
merited justice, filed an affidavit
against Mrs. Eulanstein, the girls
mother, for provoking an assault. The
case will be heard to-day.

A New and Grand Epoch i'm Medicine!
DIR. Maggiel is the founder of ANEW Med
ical SyStemi The quantitarians whose vast.
in terIlal doses eIlfeeble the. stomach and
paralyze the bowels, must give precedence
to the man who restores Health and appe-
tite,, with from one to two of his extraor-
binary Pills, and cures the most virulent
sores with box or oof his wonderful and
all healing Salye. These two great specif-
les of the Doctors are -superceding all
the stereotyped noStruI1s of the day. Ex-
traordinary cures by Maggfel's Pills and
Salve have opened the eyes ofthe public to
the 1neftciepcy of the $50 called) remedies
OF others, and uponlYhich people have so
long biindiy depended Maggiel's Pills are
not OF the class that are swallowed by the
dozen, and of which every box full taken
creates an absolute pecessity for another!
One or two of Maggiel's Pills suffices TO
place the bowels IN perfect order tone the
stomach, createi an appetite, and render
the spirits light and buOyanti There1s no
gripping and no reaction in the form of con-
stipation. If the liver is affected, its fanc-
lions are restored; and if the nervous sys-.
tenn is feeble, tits ilNf9oFated. This last
quality makes the medicine very desirable
Tor the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous
and efuptive diseases are literally ex-
! tInguished by the disinfectant power of
MagSiels Salve. In fact, it is here an
'nouncedo that 1fdggfeI's Bilious, Dgsleptfc

EAsTPoRT CoTToN. We have been
shown a bowl of cotton from Eastport,
Mississippi, as a sample of the new
crop in that region. The crop is very
fine, and there will be large ship
ment from that region of the great
staple. IF the proper effort is made
much of this cotton can be diverted
to this city either Of sale or
shipment East. Merchants from the
line of the Tennessee River, last year,
seldom found any difficulty in selling
cotton here at fair rates, or exchang-
ing it for goods. We believe cotton
brokerage in this city would pay well,
and We would be glad to see a few, en-
terprising gentlemen form firm of
this character. One thing is certain,
if we would retain the rich trade of
the regions watered by the Tennessee
. River our merchants must be pre-
pared to offer inducements equal to
those offered by St. Louis and Louis
vile. This they are able to do if the
proper spirit animate them.

A PIG RATTER.-We have it from
good authority that while some pigs
were roofing, as is their wont, on the
sidewalk, in the city on Monday, they
disturbed a rat from its den, which
starting to run, was pursued and
caught by one of the pigs, but was
quickly dropped, when the rat again
started to run but was again seized by
the pig, which this time held on to its
prey and ran off, followed by the en-
tire drove of pigs. We hardly expect,
however, that rat dogs will be super
seeded by rat pigs.

HENDERSON AND EDGEFIELD RAIL
RoAD-We have often urged upon the
attention of our people the propriety,
yea the absolute necessity to the bust
ness interests of the city, of the con-
struction of a railroad from Hender-
son, KY, to Edgefeld, or to point
on the Louisville and Memphis Branch
Railroad, that would give us direct
communication with Nashville. The
Louisville and Memphis Branch Road
has recently been finished, and ire
mendous effort is being made by the
people of Louisville to di-
vert much of the trade which
used to come here from that re-
gion of country through which the
Road runs, to that city. IF the pro-
posed road from Henderson is not
built, this effort on the part of Louis
vile will prove successful. If the
road is built from Henderson to Hay
densville, on the line of the Louisville
and Memphis Branch, it would give
US direct communication with Nash
vile, and would open up to us the
trade of one of the most fertile and
valuable regions of Western Ken
lucky The grading on thelroad, we
understand, has long Since been done,
and the cost ofSeompletihgl it would be
comparatively SMALL The people Of
Henderson have an equal or greater
interest in the completion of this
road, and we doubt not would bear a
liberal share OF the expense. - Z

On Tuesday night gentleman and
lady of attractive appearance arrived

As they were taking a quiet pro-
manade in the evening, Marshal Ten
voorde and Chief of Police Philip
Klein awoke them from their dream of
bliss by taking them into custody, by
request of the injured husband, who
had arrived in pursuit by the 5 o'clock
train. The name of the husband
is Logan, and that of the gay Lotha7
rio, Wood, all residents of Mattoon,
Illinois. Wood was arrested on
charge of stealing certain articles of
clothing from Logan, and had hear
ing before Esquire Stinson, who held
him in bond of 81 900 for disappear
ance at the next term of the Wander
burgh Circuit Court. Logan charges
that the runaways carried off with
them $1,700 in money. which the
faithless wife says was left in Terre
Haute. Wood not having the $1,000
on his broadcloth, took. lodgings. at
Castle Darling, while Logan with his
truant wife returned to the boarding
house on Cherry Street a t-
Mrs. Logan is a splendid looking
woman, as we are told. and Wood is
perhaps a better looking man than
Logan. What disposition Logan pro-
poses to make Of his truant wife we.
