IRON TIES
--FoR-
COTTON BA IFS

s - - y q
HHE undersigned have made extensive ye
i arrangements to supply the demand
for these Ties the present season. ~
In addition to the FASSMAN DIAMOND
TIE and BUTTON TIE, so extensively
used heretofore, they now offer his ALLl-
GATOR TIE, with teeth so arranged as to
instantly clamp the hoop when the pres
sure is removed from the bale, and hold it
withous slipping.
Great pains have been taken to secure
the best of iron.
These Ties are SO simple in their arrange
ment that they can be applied by any one,
to bales of any size, with the same facility
and expedition as rope. In strength, secn.
rity and facility Of application, they will
compare favorably with sny yet intro
duced.
The advantages Of Iron Ties are now
generally recognized; but it is deemed not
out o of place to call the attention Of those
interested to the very emphatic recommen-
dation of Underwriters, Steamboat Cap
tains, and Owners and Agents of Sea
Steamers and Sailing Vessels, recently

The SABBATH SCHOOL CONCERT AND
JUBILEE AT Dr. BAIRD's CHURCH LAST
NIGHT.-Seldom have We attended more
delightful concert and general jubilee than
at the First Cumberland Presbyterian
Church last night In obedience to GUS
tom in that Church. the Sabbath School al
ways has festival, at which time there
is a general interchange of nice presents
from pupils and teachers. To make the
occasion one of more varied interest, the
children had prepared several songs for the
occasion. Without disparagement to oth-
ers, we must admit we have never before
heard such delightful music from children.
The occasion being that Of the annuncia-
ton of the coming Savior, their little
voices seemed touched with the seraphic
sweetness with which the shepherds broke
the stiffness ofss the Judean hills when pro-
claiming the birth of Christ. After the
singing, the children were presented with
CONNECTIONS, fruits, and nuts, which made
their little hearts leap with Joy. Many
nice books were presented to teachers and
pupils, and some Of our young men, who
are accused of having some of the attri-
butes of Narcissus, were presented with
lOoking-glasses The audience was large,
the music charming, and the whole affair
exceedingly agreeable.

TIE NASHVILLE LIFE INSURANCE

TIE NASHVILLE LIFE INSURANCE COM
PANY.-About a month since we made
mention of the death, by violence at his
plantation in Arkansas, of Colonel Jo-
seph Branch, highly esteemed citizen
of Maury county, in this State, and well
known in this community. A few weeks
before the deplorabIe event which robbed
his family of devoted husband and father,
the community of an esteemed member,
and large body of friends of one to whom
they were greatly attached, he was in this
city in the vigor of manly health. While
here, he effected an insurance upon his life
in the company whose name heads this par
agraph--the Nashville Life Insurance Co.,
John M. Bass, Esq, President; j. w.
Hoyte, M. D., Secretary.
In behalf of his friends, we are requested
to call attention to the promptitude of the
Company in satisfying the requirements of
the policy. Col. Branch was insured Nov
7th, l867-was killed Nov. 20-his repre-
sentative, under the policy of $4,000,
reached home on the 18th of December-the
policy was cashed on the 18th of the same
month.
The Nashville Life Insurance Company
is a home institution. The names of lis
Directors and Officers are guarantee for
their engagements, The case of Col.
Branch is an Illustration of their mode of
doing business. Acts speak louder than
words, and the friends desire that this
home company should be known and APP
preeiated.

a DesirabIe HOLIDAY present

There was a time-and not very long ago
either-when Sewing Machines, with all
their acknowledged utility, were among
the Injuries of social life The few pcs
sessed them and expatiated upon their
wonderful charms with tireless loquacity
and dilated eyes, while the many looked
upon them as maryels of scientific and in
ventive genius far beyond their reach.
That time has passed by most unmistaka-
bly, and to-day the best beloved coadiu4
tor of the presiding genius Of every we'll
ordered household is the Sewing Machine.
"But there are 80 many different Sewing
Machines" the people say, "all putting
forth indisputable claims TO pre-eminent
excellencies, that we are in a quandary,
and don't know which to buy" To choose
finally in such a matter is certainly i'm
portant, and we may be able to assist some
of those who are unable to decide for them
selves. At any rate, we will say frankly
that the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine
must be regarded as one Of the most per
feet, complete and desirable in the market.
II is light, graceful and simple; it seWs
rapidly, undeyiatingly, surely; its stitch
is compact and elegant, and never gives
OUT IL uOcS ever bAcRL NAh btdoio "
any Sewing Machine, and excels all others
in its adaptability for embroidery. The
specimens of this branch of needle~work
are as wonderful as they are exquisite. The
steadiest and most skiIlful hand, inspired
to labor by the fondest motives and most
ingenious Imagination, could not hope to
execute such work, although it might
devote to il days and weeks of wearying
toll. In addition to recommendations like
these, it must by no means be forgotten
that the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine
was the only one which received, at the
Paris Universal Exposition, the Cross Of
the Legion of Honor, that most coveted of
all prizes among exhibitors. The thou
sands who are looking about for the best
Sewing Machine, as a holiday present for
some dear friend, or some needy and de-
serving poor person, will do well not to
lose sight of such facts as thsae.-Home

APPROPRIATION OF CHRISTMAS FIX
INGs.-Major Bransford, of the Louisville

received from some of his numerous friends

the depot thought it fit time to play a
joke on the Major, and on yesterday event

case is not considered "felonious" by either
