A proposition is new before the Legisla-
ture to form new county (Christian) of
portions of Madison, Henderson, Carroll
and Gibson. Referring to the movement
the Jackson Tribune of last Saturday says:
This idea of new counties, accompanied
with additional expense, to people already
ground to powder by Radical misrule is
a species of folly barely tolerable to a man
of any intelligence. When sifted they will
be found to be schemes of spectators, of
the interested few, who promote their own
selfish ends first last and all the time"
