DEATH OF All OLD CITIZEE.-Capt. Joseph Jack
son. old resident Of this place died at the resi-
dence Of his son, A q. jackson, last Saturday
ing, at the advanced age Of eighty-seven years
He was one Of the eldest men in the community.
Few men who have lived so long in the world as
he had so few enemies. A man of very decided
character yet courteous towards those with whom
ne differed overy man who knew him was his per-
sonal friend. Scrupulously just and upright in all
bis dealings with his fellow-man, he became TO be
regarded by all a model in this respect. He pos
sessed in a high degree that sense Of honor for
which men who have lived when he was in the
prime of life were proverbial. Men in Knoxville
and elsewhere whose heads are becoming silvered
with age, remember with gratitude wholesome adj
vice given them by him in their youthful days,
which has proven beneficial TO them in thousand
instances, and perhaps has saved many of them
from ruin. But he is gone, and by his death void
is left in the community never 10 DO filed.
His remains we're inferred in Gray cemetery on
Sunday evening" and were followed TO their last
resting place by a large concourse of friends
Prominent in the funeral procession was the horse,
without rider which he has used as saddle-horse
Cor many years. and 10 which he was greatly at
lsched.
One by one our sterling old men pass away, and
we are led 10 anxiously inquire who will take their
places 10 society Young men who spending
their time in idleness, folly and crime can never
take the places Of those so well known for industry,
wisdom and virtue.

STEAM CANAL BOATS. "A new plan OF over
coming the difficulties that have hitherto
prevented the adoption of steam as propel-
ling power on canals, which is likely to revolu-
tionize the present system OF inland navigation,
was tried successfully at New York, few days
since, by party of gentlemen connected with
transportation companies, in presence Of some
members of the press The invention, which
was attached to the propeller General Sicgel,
consists of an ordinary screw fixed in protect
ing frame, but attached, not to the shaft but
to knuck(e OF iron between the end Of the
shaft and the screw blades. By this arrangement
the screw is made to serve as 4 rudder and re-
spends readily to the movement of the wheel.
The General Siegel made several complete
turns in her own length during the trip, and
caused no greater disturbance in the water att
than would an ordinary sailing vessel, and tar
less than a canal boat fitted with large, unwleldy
rudders. AS a test Of the value OF the lnVen-
ton for steering purposes the experiment was
perfectly successful and proved that the chief
objection to the introduction Of steam on our
canas-the washing and wearing Of the banks
could no longer apply. The Philadelphia
Transportation and Freight Company, which
has received very liberal charter from the
Pennsylvania Legislature, is building number
of canal boats to be fitted with this invention
and run by steam between the coal regions and
Washington, and Washington and New ork.
The boats will be 100 feet long by II feet wide,
and will carry ITO tons OF freight

TOTAL ss.-Total darkness
again obscured the streets of this city last
night, but whether from defect in the gas
works or in consequence of orders from head
quarters, is not known. Whatever the cause,
however, the effect was certainly exceedingly
disagreeable, and great many persons will
thankfully regard any one who will prevent its
recurrence 1t would seem that if the light
ing and extinguishing Of the gas lamps were
left discretionary with the watchmen who
preambulate the streets at all hours Of the
night. the probability of the repetition Of last
nights and the previous nights utter dark
ness throughout all the thoroughtares Of the
city, would be materially lessened.
