APPoINTED.-Doetor David S. Piunell, of
Upshur county, in this State, aud for some
years Speaker of the West Virginia House of
Delegates, has been appointed Consul at Mel
bourne, Australia. instead of Col. George Il.
Latham, COpper-J ohnson parsonage. Latham,
will hardly regard this as ''Iuir play" on the
part of PinneIl, but as we have the -lattcr's
assurance that he detcsts the Foul Play" of
the I"telhgenccr, it is not to be supposed that
he will engage in that sort of thing on his
own account. Give Pinnell fair chance and
he will annex Australia to Upshur county
and fix the Capital at Buckhnnnon.

ESg" At latest advices from the headquar-

the race between Grants relatives and tie
niggers is pretty even, relatives being ahead.
Thank fortune, he is willing to give somebody
office, no matter whether he honors those who
elevated him to power or not.

Bas- The other day in the United States
Senate, Senator Sprague said something about
the "barkings of a puppy dog" when straight
way one Abbott, of North Carolina, assumed
the epithet was meant FOR him, and went off
into fearful rage 1t is funny to see how
readily these scaIawags recognize an appro-

CuBA.-The New York Metropolitan
Record, after showing the inconsistency and
heartlcssness Of the Republican cry for the
acquisition Of Cuba, adds:
In due time, we may add, the Democracy
will take of the question. The Domo-
cratic party is the only party that can betriend
the cause Of constitutional freedom anywhere.
1t annexed Louisiana in spite of the old Fed
eral party it annexed Texas and California
against the united resistance Of the old Wing
party-the progenitor Of the modern Black
Republican orgauzaton-and in due time,
we repeat, it will see to the annexation of
Cuba, should circumstances render that step
justlfilble. The patriotism, the pluck, the
brains aud the craftsmanship to plan and to
execute great enterprises Of that character are,
as they have always been, with Democracy
not with the ShalIOw-pated, narrow-minded,
shrivelIed-up, provincial politicians who en-
gineer the Black Republican Ism" and of
whom the badly whipped Red River "Bobbin
Boy" is supposed to be pretty fair reprcsen-
tatIvc.

"All Nurseries in One"

There is an enterprising fellow in New Y OF k
city who advertses that his establishments
combines sail nurseries in one" lie has no
nursery Of his own, but if you will order from
him, he will order from any nursery he chooses,
and this plan, he maintains, gives his Gust mers
the advantage of "all nurseries in one"
Grant appears to be running these United
States on this plan. Among the nominations
and conGrmations last week were the follwing:
Tx Governor Curtin as Minister to Russia :;
Ebenczer Bnssett as Minister to IInyti, and
i. s. Parker as Commissioner of Indian Az
fairs Curtin is White man. Bussctt is a
Negro and Parker is an Indian.
Having the advantage of "all nurseries in
one" Grant can fill any order he may receive.
To the white people of Russia he can send a
white man; to the Negroes of Hayti he can
send a Negro, and to his old friends the
. iggers" he can give and Indian.
y friend suggests that the colors of our
National standard need changing. Red white
and blue ought to give place to red, white and
black. Let the beautiful color Of the Negro
shine out on the flag GAamJersIuy Spirit

Enst Temncssee A. Gn. Railroad.
We obtain the following II relation 10 the
East Tennessee Road from the Knoxville Wing
Of last week:
The semi-annual session of the Directors Of
this Road was held at their office on the 18th
instant. The earnings of the road for the last
six months amounted to S240,S65 on
e Of f this last sum sl5 ,22l IS are for permanent
improvements, leaving $l61 ,120 % as the ordi-
nary expense account, which amounts to about
85 per cent. Of the earnings. This per centage
is deemed too great, and 1t Is proposed to re-
duce 1t.
The receipts for the last six months show q
falling off, Ms compared with the same months
Of last rear, Of s32,917 II. This falling off in
freights, isAAttribtitabe TO three facts: The
small amount of local business, owing to light
wheat crops, the very low price of through
freights, owing to sharp competition, and the
failure last year to forward cotton with dis.
patch, owing to the block ut Bristol. The fall
Ing off in passengers is accounted for by the
fact of running but one daily train.
From the large corn crops in the country
which are just now beginning to be moved, ali
increase of local business is expected.
Settlements, equitable and satisfactory with
the State on interest and sinking fund account,
are announced as having been effected. Al
engine house, at q cost of $4,000, has beer
built, and contract has been made for cover
ing the Loudon bridge, which Is progressing
with dispatch and in good manner.
The saving to the two roads In salaries Q
officers and employees, 1t is supposed, vii
amount to fifty thousand dollars ayear.

nOnst Relieve 1t,

A report has been current in this direction
for some days past, based upon the authority
of gentleman recently returned from Nash
Vile, that the Legislature would adjourn ut an
early day, and the whole caboodle volunteerin
the State Guard" Without intending to
disparage either the valor or patriotism of the
gentlemen Implicated, we think there must
be some mistake about the report. A militia
man only receives two dollars a day while the
per diem Of member of the Legislature is six
dollars, which difference is of itself sufficient
to raise a reasonable doubt Of the correctness
of the rumor. 1t has probably been started by
some mischievous ex-rebel or copper-headed
Union man, of whom there are said to be a
good many about the State capital.

A large, wcll-formed, good-locking man,
strongly resembling in face and figure the miss

cars at Athens, few days ago, and left in n
short time going in the direction of Murphey,
North Carolina. He told the President Of the

ter of population, and so forth, that his object
was to visit the Cocker Creek Mines and the
