WHAT TO WEAR.
The Latest Things for the masC

The Latest Things for the mascu-
lIne CurIed DarIings.
The leading tailors of New York city
have received advices from Europe re-
garding the fashions for men during the
coming fall and winter. They will vary
but little from those of the past season.
Short English jackets of melton, dag
onal and chevOit materials, will still be in
vogue for day wear, together th.double-
breasted Prince Albert frocks, having
short skirts, and collars in lOrg rollsreach-
ing low toward the waist. The New
market double breasted cut-away coat, of
varied materials, will also continue to be
worn.
Dress coats will be of the same pattern
as last year, and renewed attempt will
be made to substitute those of blue cloth
with guilt buttons for the funeral black
that has ruled for twenty years past.
Overcoats will vary in cut and make,
but the blue, close fitting garment of
heavy cloth, generally popular last winter,
will still be favorite.
Vests will be either double breasted,
with lsppels, or high in the neck and sin
gle, with rolling collars. For evening
wear they will be single breasted, cut low,
and both white and black.
Pantaloons for both day and eVenin
will be cut smaller than hitherto at the
knee, and larger at the foot, which it will
cover to the extent of the style in vogue
years ago. The materials will be the
same as during the late season. Together
with blue coats for evening use, Light col
ored pantalOons will continue TO be worn,
but black will doubtless be the reigning
hue.

LONDON, Sept. 10.-At IL o'clock this
morning a large vessel, name unknown,
struck on Goodwin's Sands, and soon be-

LONDON, Sept 10.-As the fragments
of the Captain thus far found don't be-
long to any vital part of the ship 1t is
thought her hull may have drifted sea-
ward From the accounts given of the
storm it seems the gale was increas-
ing, aud on Wednesday morning signal
was given for the squadron to wear ship.
The Captains responsive signal was not
seen. the rest of the feet ran before
the wind till out of sightwhen at
7 O'Clock heavy squall came up, which,
perhaps, proved fatal to the ironclad,
throwing her on beam end, or driving her
bows under. The bodies bound were
those of men whose duty it was to wear
ship 1t is possible the vessel was driven
TO sea and the bodies of the men found
were washed from her deck. The names
of the officers and seventeen men who
are said to have been saved are unknown.

WHO SHALL BE OUR REPRE-
SENTATIVE!

To the Editors Of the Union and American:
Have the citizens of this congressional
district reflected how important it is to
have man to represent us in Congress
whose experience and personal character
would enable him to subserVe their inter-
ests to the best adVantage2 For instance,
we need a man who could settle the diff
culties of our railroad companies with
the government, and who could secure an
appropriation to open the Cumberland
river, and make it naVigable for hundreds
of miles above Nashville for the greater
portion of the year. This would open q
market for some of the finest timber in
the world for ship building, besides infus-
ing new energyin the development of the
vast mineral resources of that region.
Michael Burns, ESQ.,, is the very man to
do this. He is the man that should rep
resent this district in the next Congress.

DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRArIoN.
Loss $4,000.


Shortly after O'clock last night the fire
bells rang the alarm, and dense clouds Of
smoke with heavy columns Of fame, were
soon after seen issuing from the East wing
OF 3. Z. Jones foundry and machine shops,
situated on the corner of Fillmore and Gas
tleman streets In South Nashville. The
engines were promptly at the scene Of the
nre, where large crowd had gathered, but
owing to the fact that the engines had to
draw water from three inch pipe, there
was not suffciency to keep our steamers
suPphed. One Of the engines had 10 force
wster nom McCann's mill, q distance of
ooV Ieet which, notwithstanding such a
elsadVantage, did fine execution. Follow
tng the direction Of the wind. the foundry
Wa rss soon wrapped in flames and DESTROYED.
Inc spreading flames lit up the hills and
tne clty around, while the exploding of
snels which were in the foundry. having
been gathered from battle fields, the CHARGES
still remaining, heightened the excitement-
Though the fireman worked ike Martier
at Moscow, no headway was made against
the flames, which, communicating with the
machine shops, swept on, tapping eyerv-
thing up before them. The entire prem
ises were soon enveloped, and almost acres
OF flame rolled and cracked their ivid
panorama before US. By eight o'clock the
fre-fend had done its work, and the entire
establishment, with all its contents Of ma
terial, finished work, machinery, etc, was
heap of ruins. The building was large
frame structure of extensive dimensions
and very combustible material. It is not
known how the fire caught, though it is
thought likely it was the work of an incen-
diary. Mr.. Jones estimates his loss at
SO, 600, upon which there is not dollar
Of insurance.
1t has been long since we have been vis-
tied by 50 destructive conhsgration, and
we trust that 1t VIII be longer before we
viii have to chronicle such another.

Death Of Well known Physicians.

Death OF Well known Physicians.
Information reached the city yesterday
of the death on Thursday last, the Sth inst ,
of Dr. Rein Thompson, of this vicinity.
He died at Snow Hill, Wilson county. DIR.
Thompson was an old practitioner of this
county, and the author of several impor-
tant works on diseases and their treatment.
Some years ago his treaties on ''Fevers'
met with large circulation, and received
favorable criticisms from all the leading
medical journals of the country. ''Thomp-
sons Medical Adviser we believe, was
the title of large volume that he
published, and which also met with
great favor DR.. Thompson was at one
time leading member of the Sons of
Temperance, and conducted with marked
ability the editorial columns of the TEN
nessee Organ, q journal devoted to the
cause of temperance. He was well sd-
vanced in years, and for some time past in
feeble health, but continued up to his last
days to enjoy lucrative practice through
out the neighborhood on the north side Of
the river where he resided.
DR.. Jo. Newman, another well known
physician, died at the residence of Mrs.
Martin on Vine street, Friday night last
He was the son of an eminent physician
who resided in this section many
years ago, and the deceased, we be-
lieve, was a native of this county.
He commenced the practice of
medicine in this city many years ago, and
we remember as far back as 1S49 that he
acquired very considerable celebrity by his
success in the treatment of cholera cases
during the fearful Epidemic of that year.
DR.. Newman was Surgeon of the Sd Ten
nessee volunteers in the Mexican war, and
in the late war received the sp-
pointment, first of Surgeon Geners
in the Provisional Army of Ten
nessee, and was afterwards q surgeon Of
high rank in the Confederate service,
having been at one time on the staff of
Gen. Polk. He returned home during the
latter part of the war in bad health, and
has been gradually sinking since that time.
DR.. Newman was about So years of age.
He had the reputation of being an excel
lent physician, and very much devoted to
his calling The physicians Of the city will
meet at DR.. Du Pres Office, old st. Cloud
Hotel, at 12f o'clock to day, to pass resos
lutions of respect to his memory, and to
attend his funeral in body.

ton of the elegant elevator was considered
an event in the history Of the hotel. Mr.
Kean's princely hospitalities shown oonspic-

night the Odd Fellows Brass Band sere-
