FIRST BOAR
SECOND BOARD.


10000 North Carolina 6, neW.........57
The New York Post of the afternoon of
the oath inst. says:
1.-THE firmuess of the premium on gold
to-day is due 10 the scarcity of cash gold,
for the use Of which until tomorrow the
following rates have been paid 1-64, I-32,
1-16. 5-64, 3-32, Is and BIG. A single
transaction was made at the opening free
of interest to both borrower and lender.
The continued flow of gold into the Sub
Treasury has SO diminished the amount
available for gold room transactions, that
the large speculative holders Of coin are
enabled TO exlort these high rates from
borrowers. Should cash gold continue
thus scarce for few days il is likely that
the Secretary Of the Treasury will sntici-
pate the May interest. In regard to the
bill Yesterday passed by the Senate author
izing the prepayment of interest on the
public debt, il is urged that injustice will
be done to the holders of the registered
bonds, as it will be impossible to prepay
the interest on them; this inequality be-
tween the registered and the cupon Issues
will, however, be somewhat modified By
the fact that the holders Of the latter who
choose 10 present them before the regular
day will be compelled to submit to a re-
bate.
There is a sharp demand for money to-
day, incident to the increased volume of
business at the Stock Exchange, and the |
rate on the best selected collateral is uni |
foTmly seven per cent There are indica-
lions that the combination controlling the
stock market contemplate making money |
stringent The activity in the 4
money market increases and borrowers this
afternoon had difficulty in supplying their
wants. In exceptional instances coin lnn
crest was paid at seven per cent. We
understand that currency Is going from
here to Boston and Philadelphis, the re-
nittance to the latter point last evening
laving been about 100000"

Swinging Round the Circle.

The many friends of our former fellow
citizen snd public caterer, Bro. Acton
Young, the prince Of landlords, will be
glad to learn, says the Knoxville Press and
Herald, that having quite successfully
filed his engagement at the National, in
Baltimore, be has secured another highly
profitable location in Wheeling, where his
door is always open, and his bountifnl Ia
bic spread for any of his Tennessee
friends who may chance to call. His
agent has already gone ahead, aud is now
negotiating for the Burnet House, in Gin
cinnati. The old gentleman hopes to get
back to Louisville by the Western route,
in time for the Fourth OF July festivities
He will probably get around 10 Knoxville
again before frost, and entertain his
friends 10 Nashville with their next
Christmas dinner.

A heavy storm of wind and rain passed
over The neighborhood two miles north

doing considerable damage. The Lebanon
Herald says three hundred yards of fencing
on the farm of John Haynes were leVeled
with the ground, and the roof Of house
on his place, rafters and all, was blown
away A number Of trees were also
blown down. Up to this time We have not
heard of any further damage, bat We are

ANOTHER OFTHE DEMONS CAUGHT
Intense Feeling Among the Railroad

Men.
The Knoxville Press and Herald Of Fri
day contains the following particulars Of
the arrest Of another of the tiends who
placed distractions on the track of the
East Tennessee and Virginia railroad:
Night before last, the third and, we pre-
sumo, the last of the fiends who placed the
obstruction upon the East Tennessee and
Virginia railroad track, was caught near
Newport. He was a boy of about sixteen
years of age He was brought to the road
yesterday morning and taken to the Jail at
Greeneville, where he was lodged with the
other two.
The three cul prits are all negroes. The
! oldest one and the instigstor OF the crime,
| ia named Reeland Freeman. He is about
twenty-eight or thirty years of age. The
two boys are aged respectively sixteen and
twelve. The boy last captured states that
Freeman procured the two boys to place
the iron on the track, and promised them
two dollars for doing it,
The arrest of the parties, in view of the
death of Carleton and the sad condition of
| McNabb has very naturally aroused an
intense excitement among the railroad en-
ployees, by the apprehension that the pen.
alties of the law in the case, may prove
uncertain and inefficient. If ever there
was wretch who deserves to have tor
lures added TO the laws extreme penalty,
it is this monster, Freeman, who, with the
heart of fend. waited and watched for
the wholesale slaughter of men, women
and children, unknown to him, and against
whom he conld have had no personal
grudge.
Such creature is deadly enemy to
the human race. But his torture and his
lawless execution could not restore life to
the dead Carleton, nor mitigate the pains
Of the suffering McNa6b. For the sake
Of the common good and the maintenance
Of that law which is the protection of US
all, We hope the administration of Justice
may be left to the courts. When they fail,
it will be time to consider the pTopriety OF
other and more summary remedies.

We announced a week or two ago that

Such was the prevailing opinion at that

however, that 80 far az regards the peach
crop, the opinion was not we'll founded.
Here in Lebanon, 50 far as we have ex-
smined, the crop is not hurt, not more
than one in five being killed. We hear,
also, that they are not seriously damaged
