"a firm in Nashville-One of the largest

dollars of taxes-has, including clerks, six
persons employed in the concern besides the
porter, who is negro. The latter is now
the only one fthe whole concern who is al

the negro was the bitterest rebel of oil, and
was an officers servant IN the late rebel

he was the third man over the ramparts OF
Fort Pillow, where he fell like an avenging
thunderbolt upon the negroes-who so gal
