The Crops and other Items of In

To the Editors of the Union and American.
Leaving Nashville Monday even ing /
made hurried visit TO the stirring town
of Athens, Alabama. The Chancery
Court, then in session, was having dis
cussed before it by some of the ablest
counsellors of the State the great question
of the railroad tax by the county, and
much interest is felt in the decision a. the
tax. payers are many of them also large
stockholders.
Some little excitement was produced by
the exhibition of knives and pistols by a
a claim agent and some parties with
whom he had difficulty but it fortunately
resulted in nobody hurt.
The crops look badly from the cold and
backward spring, though few warm days
such as we are now experiencing will soon
develop them.
At Corinth, Miss, several Nashville
citizens, driven by the terrible municipal
taxation to some more favored locality,
have established large shoe factory. One
of the company, Mr.. Mckenzie, is we'll
hHOWu III NdsuNliic, anu the Stylb anu
quality Of the work will equal that made
by The best makers in PhiIadslphia. 1t ia
a pity that our city should have fallen into
such hands as to compel labor and capital
to go elsewhere, when she 80 much needs
the supporter such sidsto sustain her. Col.
Wills, who during the war was attached to
the Quartermaster's department, has a large
distillery there, and has been quite sue
cesslul. The stands of cotton and corn on
the line Of this road show the effects of
cold and late spring 10 many places the
hail cut the cotton up entirely, and the
fields have been replanled with corn. The
citizens of Aberdeen, tired of their isolated
position and the slmost impossible road
which connects them with the TaiIrosd,
have raised the money necessary, say
100000, to build branch road 10 their
place, and the iron will be soon placed on
the road, which will be completed in two
months, bringing this fine old town again
into the business connections she has go
long been separated from.
The redistribution policy of the ruin and
rule partizans is again being developed in
this State. During the administration
Of Gen Gillem the energies of the people
had been encouraged by his liberal course,
and in no other section had so much been
done to bring about kindly feelings and
confidence. The present commander has
seen fit to remove former incumbents and
in their stead appointed men whose inter.
ests will be best promoted by conflicts
with the freedmen and white citizens.
There seems to be fair prospect for this
State soon being cursed like her sister
States with the rule of irresponsible adj
Venturers. +.

10000 North Carolina o., neW.........55
The New York Post of the afternoon of
the 10Th inst. says;
The money market is without special
interest. The demand is fairly active and
is readily met at seven per cent. on rail
way and miscellaneous collateral; on
pledge of government bonds exceptional
loans are reported at six. Adyices from
Washington as to the probable purchase of
TIRE per cent. certificates by the Secretary
Of the Treasury are contradictory. Ia the
market for commercial paper there is no
notable change, the transactions being
small, with seven TO nine per cent. as the
extreme range for prime acceptances. Pur-
chaseTs, however, show unusual caution in
selecting names.
The government bond market is heavy,
although prices, compared with yester-
days sales, show but unimportant changes.
At the treasury purchase to-day the
amount offered was $3,546,000. Those
offered by Messrs. Jay Cooke x Co. were
accepted and sppear in the following list,
