Mr.. Big Profits, Salt RiUer:
SIR--Having heard from you
through the OBSERVER, l hasten to
give you the news. We (of our
set) are in rather a bad fix. / do
not think that you will be able to
return in this generation, and /
see that l will be compelled to
hunt more congenial place. The
severe drought which has SO badly
injured our crops does not seem to
cause any relenting On the part
of our prosecutor; on the contra
ny, he has bought one of the best
stocks of goods that he has ever
had, and proposes selling them
cheap. He has ladies' dress goods,
collars, boots, shoes, hats, hard
ware, queensware, clothing, in
fact, almost anything that a man
wants. The man I allude to is L.
J. GRAY, northwest corner of the
Square, and | have no doubt but
that / myself will shortly be sent
up Salt River. Please look a.
round and see if you can obtain
accommodation for myself and
friends. Yours truly,
20 0. L. D. FoGY.

Tinware, Iron and Castings, Horse

We quote the following from the
Huntsville Independent of Sun

railroad connection:

power granted to the Directors is
carried out land we hope there
will be no resentment of the &C.
ton of the meeting), is fraught
with unusual interest to the people
of this section. This enterprise
has long been talked of; we trust
the time has now come for action.
A proposition was made to the
Directors of the, Memphis and
Charleston Railroad from the own
ers of the Decherd, Winchester
and Fayetteville Road to lease
the said road to the Memphis
land Charleston Railroad for the
term of ten years for $4,000 a
year. If this arrangement is con-
illuminated, and we doubt not it
can be arranged, there will be but
twenty-four miles of road to build
from Fearns Station, on the Mem
phis and Charleston Railroad to
Rock Springs. on the Decherd
and Fayetteville Road, the whole
line being through Madison coun-
ty, easy of construction and fed
by a section of country of great
agricultural productiveness. Be.
sides this several rich counties In
| Tennessee will be opened up to Us.
and must prove profitable feeder
to the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad. ~
! With the exception of a little
over one hundred miles, there are
now roads in operation from Dech
!, erd, Tennessee, to Louisville ant
Cincinnati. Build this link ant
, we have the shortest line from up
per Ohio to Grand Junction auc
Memphis. But our Southern con
nection will be Of vast Importance
We are looking to the speedy com
pletion of the Guntersville ant
Jacksonville road, and in few
years will no doubt follow the con
: struction of a road from this place
, to Guntersville, thus giving us al
: outlet to the Atlantic seaboard ant
! the Gulf. What a magnificent
highway of travel and freight thii
will be, sweeping through do

Bud Carter.

1t will be remembered by our
readers that two men, Carter
and Wilson, were arrested last
April at Browns Ferry and lodged
in Jail at Athens, charged with
horse stealing. They were pur-
sued to that place by YIN. B. Hill
and young man named Steakley
from East Tennessee. BY a requi-
sition they were broughtto Tennes.
see for trial, and lodged in White
county jail. Carter was represen'
ted as a reckless desperado, and
told Mr.. Hill that he would gel
away, and when he did Hill would
pay dearly for having him arrested
A few days ago Carter broke jail
captured old man Hill, took hin
to the mountains, and sent wore
| to Hills friends that unless they
paid him $4,000 he would murder
the old man. The money wa
paid, and Hill released. Not salts
fled with this, Carter threatened
young Steakley's life. We copy
the following in reference to thi
matter from the Nashville Unio1
and american:
Bud Carter was killed on las
Wednesday night by Steakley ant
an associate. A large ball passed
through his head, and many small
er ones through his body, though
to be buckshot. Itappears that Car
ter had threatened the life of Steak
ley and others who were instru
mental in his arrest in Alabama
Our correspondent states that ap
prehensions are felt that the kill
ing of Carter is not to be the emf
, of the affair. He has his friend
who may possibly take the dis
position of the lives of Carter
killers in their own hands.

Andrew johnson, when Presi
dent, never appointed a relation
to Office. From him, as from all
other Presidents, relations sought
Office, but in all cases he repealed
their applications. Like Jefferson
he determined to be incorruptible
to guard against even the suspicion
of corruption. He had no men in
his Cabinet who gave places to

Gross excuses have been recent
y committed in Rutherford, Wilson
and Sumner counties, causing much
excitement and alarm. The Union
and American has the following de-
cisive article on the subject:
Down WITH THE DEsPERADcEs.-I
On yesterday We endorsed the prompt
warning Of the proclamation of
Gov. Ssnter age;nst the bands Of
despeIadoes charged with the recen:
violations of The peace in Rutherford,
Wilson and Sumner counties; and
asserted that if it became necessary,
it was his duty as Chief Executive,
to repress them and bring the often.
ders to punishment, by any legiti-
mate means, and at all hazards
The seal Of reprobation must be
placed on these acts, emphatically,
and in such manner as will pre-
vent their repetition. It's matters NOT
| by whom they are perpetrated.-
Their tuthors are bad men, and
must be placed undtr the ban Of
the community, and in the grasp
OF the law. Language is inadequate
to express the detestation and alb
horrence 6hich every good citizen
must feel for such conduct. If it is
done to crafty feeling of race pre-
judice, or 10 satisfy spirit Of re-
taliation, it is ineffably mean, so
miserably malevolent that contempt
mingles in the feeling which prompts
its denunoiation. II it is done With

the work Of reckless, irresponsible
cut.thrOats, instigated by a general
spirit of devilishness, which it most
probably is, they should be hunted
down as men hunt wild beasts, and
driven from the State, or extermina'
ted. Neither the officers Of the
: Law nor the people of the COmmuni'
ties which are the scene Of these
, outrages should show their author;
the least particle of liberation. M
man who engages in them, young OIL

and utter condemnation of suci

r lessness shall be summarily checked
and We repeat our Endorsement o.
!. the official steps taken TO arrest il

: leading citizens of counties in whic
+ they may occur, to so organize th
v public sentiment of their communl

alive wish to see if in the early
spring, as we'll as in summertime,
an attractive show Of floral love-

this nick of time, therefore, Wick,
the celebrated Rochester florist,
issues his illustrated catalogue of
"hardy bulbs suitable for autumn
planting in 1862" and it is treat
to look over it. His list of by.
acinths, tulips, crocusses, snow.
drops, narcissus, lilies, iris, ane.
mones, ixis, colchicums, oxalis, ran
incubus, &C., are enough to make
one yearn for an acre of garden tc
plant them in. The cultivation
of taste for flowers is the most
innocent and exquisite of all hu
man enjoyments, and is, fortunate
ly, inexpensive.
