And tho jolly ones who make II .'+i

Anybody wear crown,is sF-f.
But a man must win a woman
If he'd have her for his own;
Would you have the gohisn,spple, s.

If the thing is worth the having.
And you want kiss, why take II.

A PROSPECT OF PEACE WITH THE
WORKERS.

We are glad TO announce, says the Troy Budget
Of Nov 10, that there is strong probability that
the unfortunate difficulties between the Troy and
Boston Railroad and Trenor w. Park, will soon
be adjusted SO that amicable relations and rail-
road communication again be maintained be-
tween Troy aud our neghbors at the North
We understand that agreement has been ar
rived at and the writing sent down TO Troy for
signatures between the Troy Il Boston railroad
and r. W. Park, for the settlement OF the long
pending quarrel between them. Park was to re-
lease and return TO the Troy and Boston railroad
the property seized by him, and the suits at bay
on both sides were to be discontinued, and no
proceedings were to be renewed by either side.
4 W. Park was TO receive $4,000, to be paid to
him by the Troy & Boston railroad. Park agreed
to Withdraw opposition and to allow the Burdens
TO build railroad from their two ore-beds so as
10 connect with this road. The Troy and Ben
nin2ton railroad to be immediately re-opened and
cars to run over it as formerly. The Troy and
Boston road had given It's assent up to yesterday
TO all these points Of agreement except that which
bound them not TO prosecute tor any cause OF ac-
ton in the past Mr.. Park had agreed to all the
terms OF settlement. We are assured that there
is little doubt now that this whole difficulty will
be finally adjusted shortly in manner satisfacto-
ry TO both parties. We believe such will be the
case.- -MaRehester Journal.

The Iegtslature.

NOVEMBER 29.-Mr. Taylor offered a
resolution requesting the United States
to pay the State of Tennessee the ex-
penses incurred in organizing the State
Guards, on the ground the State was
compelled to do it for her own protec'
ton, which is untrue.
Senate joint resolution instructing the
Representatives in Congress from Ten
nessee to use their influence to have the
proceeds of certain loyalty bonds exc
cuted by rebel citizens of Tennessee,
and which bonds, it is claimed, have
been forfeited, appropriated to indemnify
loyal citizens OF the State for losses
incurred by the war, was adopted.
The House took up on its second
reading the measure known as the
omnibus-railrosd bill, an amendment
pending which appropriates 5000, 900 in
bonds to the Edgefeld and Kentucky
Railroad, to be secured by the Evans
Vile, Henderson and Nashville Railroad
Company giving bond to the State
for the amount of the bonds, principal
and interest, ard issue TO the State and
deposit with the Governor the stock of
Sdlu COu pduJ W luc duiOuut VI tuC DOuuo
used in the construction of said road.
Amendments appropriating in the
aggregate $500 to various roads that
hardly anybody heard Of, we're offered,
and all laid on the table.
Mr.. Hamilton offered an amendment
providing that any road receiving the
aid contemplated in the bill shall not
employ any person who cannot take the
oath prescribed in the franchise law.
Tabled after sharp debate.
The Rspublican Banner says, rather
discourteously: Hamilton, you're
hog ~ We knew that we had an edu-
Gated hog" in Memphis; but we were
not aware, until appraised by the Banner,
that he had gone to Nashville. We con-
graduate the Legislature on having such
an eminent tutor
Mr. Bosom entered into an extended
argument in favor of encouraging inter
nal improvements and advocated the
passage of the bill.
