ROBERTSON COUNTY.

Correspond ence of the Union and Americana
, SPRINGFIELD, Robertson Co., July s, is &C..
The tableaux on the second night were
equally as successful with the first, and the
Society received from the proceeds of the
Fair and Tableaux the sum Of not less than
thirteen hundred dollars, all of which will
go towards relieving the wants of "pOOr
widows and orphans of deceased Confederate
soldiers" residents of this county.
The crops are being harvested and are
much better than was expected. Corn in
most cases looks well and promises TO yield
abundantly.
Business in this place is dull, the farmers
being too busy to come in.
The "mOuntain delG' which is distilled in
its most tempting and inviting form in @Old
Robertson, is not being shipped very large
". In conn ection with whisky, let me say,
that though the best whisky made in the
South is produced here, this town hardly
supports two saloons. The morality of the
young men of Springfield is proverbial.
Before the war harder place could not be
found, now all or nearly all the young
men-and not few old ones-are members
Of the "Sons of Temperance" with a Lodge
that is the largest Of any town in the State,
Nashville and Memphis excepted, and even
these, in proportion, have not more men,
bers. Let the good cause 60 on.
II. D. FEATHERsToNE, who was appointed
by "Gov." BRowNLOW Commissioner Of
Registration Of voters in this county, has
found that Robertson county will be enti-
tied to Just about sepeatg-tlcO, out Of popu-
lation Of ttrenty-fue. thousand! Politics are
decidedly one-sided. Were BROwNLow and
his crew to receive their Just dies, according
to our citizens, the deepest, darkest and most
damnable pit of FIRE and birthstone in all
Hades would be dccursed 70 receive their
souls If they have got any. All honor 10
" old Robertson" for the praiseworthy stand
She has taken in the darkest hour of " glo-
rious old Tennessee" SKuroS.
Since writing the above I find I have
made a mistake. i cheerfully make the
correctio on as requested. The society does
not work for the widows and orphans Of
deceased Confederate soldiers" alone but
for al the poor of this county. 1 am more
especially requested 10 make this correction,
because an article signed ANDY in the
Gazefts Of July eth, eonfers wrong impress
sion, by reason Of his saying, a rivalry ex-
lists between the " Robertson County Ladies
Benevolent Society" and the Benevolent
Society Of Tennessee" whose object Il Is to
provide disabled Confederate soldiers with
artificial limbs This provides for a few,
while the other provides for all the poor Of
the county. The entertainment given blythe
Benevolent Society Of Tennessee was
good as all must be that are given under
the supervision Of our friend GREEN MoR-
ROW, and the tableaux given by the Rob-
ertson County Ladies Benevolent Society"
were also good, the only one under the di-
reetion Of Springhel95 fair sons and dEught-
eFs. Where can the rivalry be ?
