OUR GRAIN MARKET-It should be matter Of
encouragement to eur country friends, engaged in
agricultural pursuits to sac the ready market they
have for the products Of their farms. Our wheat
crop was abundant, but it was scarcely harvested
when the demand became so great that very large
proportion was at once put int the market, and
now wheat is comparatively scarce through the
country, and is selling at very high prices The
corn crop in East Tennessee go far as we have been
able to learn also abundant but at present prices
we should not wonder If it is soon shipped out Of
the country, and it place occupied by greenbacks.
THESE ready markets should induce farmers to in
crease their efforts to raise good crops. Every avail
able acre should be placed under cultivation, and
every acre planted should be cultivated TO its high
est extent Thus can our country be made 10 teen
with wealth and prosperity.

DR. MYsATT, our Re preventative in the Legisla-

is good movement, and one which we hope will
meet with favor among the members Of that body.
Such an institution is needed, and as our popula-

The county has already made an appropriation
for this purpose, and if this bill should pass the
matter will be an immediate success

RELIEVE THE DEsTITUTE.-There is no place Of
the population Of Knoxville, but there are persons
who, without assistance, viii suffer more or less for
the necessities Of life. Winter with It's dreary days
and long, stormy nights, viii soon be upon US, and
consequently suffering among the class We have
spoken Of must increase We believe there are as
few persons in Knoxville who belong 10 this class as
any other city Of its population; but still there are
such personE and we, as Christian people, should
regard their wants and assist, as much as in our
power lies in giving them the relief needed. With
pleasure We learn that the different Churches have
taken this matter in hand and viii appoint COM
mittee, composed Of men from each Church, 10 al
tend 10 relieving the wants Of those who are una
voidably in destitute circumstances. Every man
who enjoys a competency of the good things Of this
life, should feel it his imperative duty to assist in
relieving the wants Of his fellow man. MANY

Pork PACKING.-We call attention 10 the ad-
vertsement of Mossrs. NIoDanial s. Go, in another
column. They have leased and rehtted the Knox
vile Pork House, and prepared 10 kill and pack
any number Of hogs. This is another step towards
the permanent improvement Of our country, and
we hope these gentlemen may meet with great sue
cess in their business. Farmers and others having
hogs for sale can do 20 better than 10 bring them TO
this market. These gentlemen propose to charge
the same prices as are charged in Cincinnati and
Louisville and will be able 10 offer ample induce
ments 70 East Tennessee farmers TO secure their
patronage.
Provision dealers in the South will find this 3
good point from which 10 draw supplies, and We
have no doubt Mcdaniel & Co. will be able 10 make
il their interest 20 patroni5e their house.

CHANCE IN THE ORGANIZATION OF THE KNOX
WILLIE AND KENTUCKY RAILRoAD.-Ata meeting
of the Directors of this road held here on Friday of
last week. Colonel G. II. McGhee rendered his re-
sgnation as President, to take effect January lst,
1863, and General ]. A. Mabry was elected in his
stead. Mr. Crsighead, the Secretary and Treasu-
of the road also rendered bis resignation to taks
effect at the same time, which was accepted, and
John L. Moses elected to the position. Mr.. McGhee
was led to this STEP in part by the condition of his
health, be having performed more labor during the
past twelve months than his physical strength
would admit Much credit is due to the energy of
Mr.. McGhee for the completion of the road to its
present terminus.
The Company is fortunate in securing as his cue
cessor, General j. A. Mabry, universally known
for his energy, liberality, and public enterprise
He knows no such a word as fail, and we hope I'M
der his administration, TO soon see the road COM
pleted to the Kentucky line.
John L. Moses, the newly elected Secretary and
Treasurer is man of sterling integrity and of fine
business qualifications, and should matters apper-
tanning TO the road not move smoothly, it will
be no fault of his.
We are glad to know that the State interest due
from this road in January next will be promptly
met, thus giving the road additional character for
the manner in which it has been managed. Since
the completion of the road TO Coal Creek, the re-
cepts of this road have been quite handsome, going
far towards paying its expenses. We doubt not
but that under proper management it will sotn be-
come not only sehsustaining but paying insti-
tuition.
The benefits resulting from the completion Of the
road TO its present terminus are already sensibly
felt in Knoxville and the surrounding country, and
We are just beginning reap the rich rewards that
await US We are happy to announce that arrange
ments are being made Oh the road, which will be
completed in few days, whereby the supply OF
coal win be much greater than it has been, and
more than adequate to the demand. No more i'm
portant enterprise, to Knoxville, than this road
exists.

SEIZURE CT VALUABLE JEwELRY.-On Satur-
day last, a man mailing from one Of the Carolinas,
and who says his name is McClain, offered some
very valuable jewelry for sale at the establishment
Of Smith s. Lyon, which Circumstance aroused sus-
picion in the minds of these gentlemen, and they
immediately procured his arrest. The jewelry is
estimated TO be worth some eight or ten thousand
dollars which was offered for almost nothing Some
Of the pieces bore Inscriptions sufficient to show
that they either belonged or had belonged to the
Preston and Hampton families, of South Carolina
and Gen Wade Hampton was at once telegraphed
the circumstances, and he replied that the jewelry
was bis.
The man says be found it in the woods two years
ago where !. had been buried. Whether he is guilty
of anything wrong in the premises time VIII de-
velop The jewelry is at the store OF Smith & Lyon
where il will remain until the owner arrives.

sincerely hope the county, well as the country al

Certainly Blount county is to be materially benef

without being properly developedP How can their
manufacturing facilities, their minerals, their
productive farms, be beneficial TO them without a

the fruits Of their industry without railroad ?
The people Of the county have thought thus of these
matters and have responded by subscribing their
means 10 secure the desired object.
Now that their bonds are in the market drawing

who have surplus funds 10 invest and are DESTROYS
Of investing in something really safe, will do well
10 purchase them. No investment can be made on

SCHUYLER CoLFAX.-The Mack-a-cheek
{OhioJ Press, Radical organ edited by Don
Piatt, thus sums up the status of the great
Radical IDOL the Speaker of the House OF
Representatives
No man known to us runs a larger amount
of machinery to less boiler than Schuyler Col
fax Possessed of one little lecture, he fills
no end of lyceums and newspapers. Packing
the committees in the house so as to pander to
the unscrnpulous greed of manufacturing mo-
nopolists, he wins a wide notoriety as Speaker,
and by catering to Fenian hubbub and all sorts
of Baseless political excitements, he comes to
be spoken of as probable candidate for the
Presidency. Yet his little lecture any school
boy could produce. His dexterity as Speaker
only proves his unftness for any other position,
while his letter to the Fenian exhibits pro-
found ignorance of Irish history and Irish
character.
Schuyler's motive power is impudence Had
he more sense he would be less successful.
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread, and
half the time rush in successfully. While in
tellect hestates folly takes the trick.
Schuyler belongs to our side, and has in his
way done us some service But it proves fa-
tiguing. We are tired Of this everlasting beat
ing of drums and blowing of trumpets and
glare of blue lights, to see one dexterous little
fellow toss up no end of brass balls, with a
brass cup on his forehead,

The RADICAL. DIsPENsATIoN.-Eh Round
Table, conservative Radical sheet, thus COM
inents upon the despotism the Congress has
placed over the South:
From their own countrymen the protection
of law has just been withdrawn by solemn and
deliberate act of Congress-. In the ten unre
constructed States there exists to-day no law
no law to punish criminals, no law to protect
personal property oOr life. Ten millions of
people we, the majority, have deliberately
placed in this condition. Redress for wrongs,
protection against violence to person OF prop
crty, they have none. Verdlcts of juries, de-
cisions of courts avail them nothing White
and black, helpless women and children, are
all condemned to live for an indefinite period
with no protection against spoliation OF injury
by INSCRIPTIONS neighbors except in the posi-
bic justice of an oyertasked administrator of
allthings, the Military Commander of the dis
triet Widows and orphans cannot succeed
to the inheritance of husband and father, save
by his permission.

ANDREW Jacksonville was indeed an ex-
traordinary man; the only man ever saw
that excited my admiration to the pitch of
wonder. To him knowledge seemed entirely
unnecessary. He saw intuitively into every
thing, and reached conclusion by a short cut
while others were beating the bush for the
game. His reasoning was impulse and his i'm
pulse inspiration. He never sought an
object that he did not succeed in attaining, and
never fought battle that he did not win. y
Gen. Jackson was not only an honorable but
an upright man, and equally scerned mean
as a dishonest act. Whatever he might have
been in his youth, he was pious man in his
old age, and though, as Corporal Trim says,
"our armies swore terribly in Flanders y the
General had conquered the habit entirely be-
fore his death. 1t was not the polite
ness of conventional habits but the courtesy of
the heart, and his department toward his fami-
ly, his guests and his slaves was that of a pa
etriarch of old presiding over his focks, his
herds and his dependents.-J X. Padding.

OLD THAD.-In recent conversation with
one of the writers for the n. Y. Herald, old
Thad. Stevens said:
fear we shall lose Pennsylvania this next
election do not think we have earnestness
enough in the State to unite and draw out the
Republican strength, while tho Republican
portion OF our Legislature has been so openly,
Iloturiously and shanefully corrupt, that all
the honest people in the State are disheartened
and disguised This corruption will certainly
beat us here next election, unless we draw out
the Republican strength by getting up Juror
or excitement on impeachment Geary, too
hurts us very much. He is an unhappy fail
ere, and his nomination was an unfortunate
thing for his party.
