IMMIGRATION.
Pennsylvania Thrift in Dickson
County.

From the Nashville Union and American of
Thursday.
The most forcible argument we have
vet seen in favor Of iInm grafton, was
presented to US in 8 late jsunt to Dickson
county. Within the last year several
hundred PennsylvADisns have settled
along the line of the North western road
from White Bluff to Gillem's Station.
This part of the county was, heretofore
considered almost worthless as an sgri
cultural country, but the deep subsoiling
and superior agricultural skill of those
energetic immigrants has developed the
act that these lands only need thorough
cultivation to make them the most pro
ductive lands OF the State. Lands which
were scarcely worth 81 before the war,
are now in request at IS to SO. This has
been the result OF the immigration, not
Of scslawags and carpet-baggers, but of
sturdy, honest farmers, who expect to
live by h0Uest toll. The greater portion
of these Pennsylvanians are real old
fashioned Democrats, and are earnest in
their efforts for the election of Seymour
and Blair, and are utterly opposed to
militia. These immigrants have settled
in one Of the richest iron regions in the
State, and we hope they illinduss some
OF those rich manufacturing friends in
the old Key Stone State to settle among
US and develop our inexhsnstible mines.
White Bluff, which, is situated thirty
miles from Nashville, On the NOrthwes-
tern Road, Is rapidly growing TO be q
point OF considerable commercial repu-
tstiOn, under The energetic management
Of our enterprising friends, Alexander
Wright, r. n. CampbelI, L. 5. Aver, BO-
ker and others. At this point the stages
for Charlotte leave the railroad, ard the
indications are that it will grow up TO be
g prosperous village. 1t has now several
stOres, a large new hotel ia course OF con-
structiOn, and several blacksmith and
carpenter shops and a lourishing saw
mill.
If the ssnguine expectations of the
owners OF the oil well, located on Jones
creek, near the Ben Robertson farm, are
realized, Dickson county will ye5 be one
of the foremost counties in the State.
We hope our citizens will Use every
effort to encourage immigration, for il
will do more 10 develop our great State
than Rll other agencies.

Grand Democratic Demonstration M

INDIANAPOLIS, September 23.-The
great Democratic demonstration to-day,
In Indianapolis, eclipsed ANYTHING of the
kind ever witnessed in the Z United States.
One hundred Thousand persons are In the
city. The procession was twenty miles
in length. Twelve Thousand and sixty
men reported themselves for duty as late
as s O'Clock, having arrived too late to
join the procession.
The cars 1lled with young ladies and
others representing the different branches
Of trade, was q very creditable and i'm
posing affair.
The procession, during the day, occu-
pied fifty-two minutes in passing given
point, and the one tonight thirty-fve
minutes.
Among the noticeable features In the
procession, was burlesque representa-
tion of the freedmen's bureau.
The torchlight procession tonight Is
the grandest sight ever witnessed in the
State. General F. P. Blair and Hon.
George II PsndIeton spoke to-day. Not
one Of ten of tie vast audisnce could ar-
proach the speakers stand in sufficient
distance to hear the remarks of the
speakers. The greatest enthusiasm pre-
vailed during the speaking. The State

TyrannicAl Conduct OF Brigham Young.
From the Salt Luke Reporter, Sept. l0thl
We are informed that Brigham Young
has given orders to Bishops, throughout
the Territory, to cut of from the Nor
mon Church every member who deals at
Gentle store, or purchases Of an out
slider. We have heard it stated by par
ties coming from the north, that preach
ing upon that subject bad been done at
Ogden and other places. This is but a
part Of the plan arranged by Brigham,
and carried out by his subordinates, to
plSce an eftectual embargo upon the To-
cation OF Gentle business men In this
Territory; and which would be made a
total prohibition had they power to CO.

this formerly carried that Mormons were
even prohibited from renting houses to

force OF circumstances, the rigor of that
rule has been somewhat relaxed in this
