FLOATEK FROM CHEATHAm.

To the Editors OF the Union and American.
AS the time will soon arrive when we,
of Cheatham county, will be called upon
to vote for floaterial representative, in
the next Legislature, for the district com
posed of the counties of Davidson, Rob-
ertson, Montgomery and Cheatham, per-
NIT us through your valuable paper to
suggest a few thoughts to the other cOun-
ties of the district.
In the first place, Davidson has two
Representatives and one Senator of her
own, besides an interest in the Joint
Representative.
Robertson and Montgomery have each
a Representative and Senator in cOnnec-
ton with Stewart, and an interest in the
tlOater.
Therefore the interest of these counties
is fully represented and projected, indie
pendently of the foster, while Cheatham
is left entirely out in the cold, with no
one to specially look after her interest,
with a population almost, if not quite
sufficient, to entitle her to a Representa-
tive of her own.
Now, under all the circumstances, il
occurs to us, that we can with perfect
right demand that the tloater be conceded
to Cheatham county. For fourteen years
we have unanimously voted for the man
you have presented us, without asking
any questions as to where he came from
or when our time would come, but, as 6
doubtful child, we have submitted quietly
to parental guidance, until now, having
| arrived at mans estate, we ought to bt
| allowed to choose for ourselves although,
/ in a numerical contest, we could moi
maintain this right against such large
odds; but, having the utmost confidence
in the integrity of the counties from
which we claim our paternity, we dOub
not but they will exercise such degrees o.
magnanimity as viii do justice to

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Two Men ShOG-A Woman and Child
Narrowly Escape Death.


From the Memphis Appeal, Aug. G.
Yesterday afternoon, about two o'clock,
as negro man, who gave his name as
Doc Evans, was removing his Craps
from the steamer Walt, which was lying at
the foot of Court street, by some means,
as yet unexplained, gun, which consti
tuted portion of the said traps Gas it now
does of every negrO's personal effects,
and which was lying on the dray with
them, exploded and wounded two white
men working on the levee, named Thorn
as and James freeman, the former Sc
verely and the latter slightly. Evans
wife was walking alongside the
dray at the moment, carrying her
infant in her arms, and a portion
Of the shot turkey and squirrel size
with which the gun was loaded passed
through her clothing and grazed the in
fant's body in several places. Thomas
Freeman was quite badly wounded in the
leg, and his brother received some four or
five shots in the arm. Both were imme-
diately taken care of, their wounds pro-
perry dressed, and no serious results are
apprehended. Evans, the.owner of the
gun, was arrested and sent to the first
district station house. He claims that
the gun was not capped, and that it OK
ploded from the heat of the sun, in which
it had been lying for some time previous.
As the barrel is black, there is nothing at
all improbable in the story, and we hope
that the poor fellow may be released as
soon as possible. The shot created con-
siderable excitement on the levee, and al
though the sun was shining with an in
tense brilliancy, a large crowd gathered
round the scene of the accident and re-

What n R.,stonian Thinks.

The Adams N " Visitor speaks of an emi
nent BOstOnian who regarded an advertise
ment in a newspaper as personal invitation
to call and said: "While | sometimes hesitate
about entering a store the proprietOrs of which
have not thus sent their cards to my residence,
| always feel certain of cordial welcome
from the members of an advertising firm"
The same paper adds: 'There is in this re-
mark an assurance of One1Of the many results
of advertising. The trader and his calling be-
come identified, and the name of the man is in
separably connected in the mind of the public
with his merchandise. 1t may not be the very

fruit; weeks or months may elapse and then,

Correction of Recent False Reports
Regarding the Travellers where

| Sir Roderiek Murchson has addressed
the following letter TO the editor of the
London Times:
SIR: In your paper of Saturday last |
observed in the news from The Cape a
statement, communicated by Sir Thomas
Maclear, the astronomer, that one Mr..
| Anderson, commanding s vessel bound
! from Zanzibar to the United States, had
| informed him, on OF before the 14th OF
| March, that DIR. Kirk, the Consular agent
at Zanzibar, had informed him that
had had recent letter FROM DE-. Living
stone, who was quite well and about
TO proceed northward. Sir Thona
Maclear had, indeed, communica-
ted the same to me, but i
at once saw that the story was false, for
had in my possession letter from DIR.
Kirk of two months later date than the
14th of March, in which he could give
me no information whatever respecting
the great traveller. Since then l have
again heard from DR.. Kirk at Zanzibar,
dated June 4, copy of which letter
enclose. have for some time, and in
concluding the Geographical Session, an
bounced to all concerned, that for the
last eight months we did not expect to
hear any definite news respecting Dr.
Livingstone, inasmuch as the supplies and
canoes to be sent to him and the answers
to letters could not be obtained for a long
period. allude to those supplies which
were obtained from Her Majesty's Gov
eminent, and which only left England
few weeks ago. Your ob't serv't,

there is nothing authentic known of him |

Advertising and its Results.

The following comes from New York paper:
"The changes going on in society make it necessary
for a business man to keep before the people. If
he expects to succeed in trade fair statement of
what he is doing, and will do, is necessary for him
self and those dealing with him. He must make
this statement, and does do it in some way if he
sells anything. People are quite apt to 20 where
their attention is called and if they find things as
represented they will purchase there in preference
to spending their time in seeking elsewhere Those
whose patronage and influence are of the greatest
value never spend too much time in looking up a
thing. They have learned that time is money, and
that without time in this world money is worthless
II is conclusive that there is merit as well as profit
in advertising honestly and fairly in telling people
what and how you will do, and then doing it. Those
who are willing to trade strictly upon principle can
circulate an advertisement throughout an entire
community, and it will have just as much force as
though they spoke to each individual by word or
each visited their establishment and examined for
himself. This advertising only amounts to the
same as telling your patron when he calls on YOU
how YOU will sell to him. 1t is just to all con-
cerned to advertise conscientiousIy and those who
do it will find advertising of the utmost impor-
tance.D

TIE Greenville Is. c. Mouat0ineer
chronicles a singular case. Mr.. William
Beattie, young gentleman of that town,
was shot in the eye during the war, the
bullet lodging in his head-internally.
The most eminent surgical skill failed to
extract this ball, and Mr.. Beattie has from
time to time suffered r,uch from it. A
few nights ago Mr.. 3. was seized with a
violent fit of coughing, during which he
felt something fall into his mouth. 1t
proved to be the bullet which had been
hidden in his head five or six years. This
bullet, which weighs half an ounce, had
worked its way slowly into the channel of
the larynx, and the convulsive effort of
coughing releasing its hold, it fell, by its
own gravity, through the said channel.

A WOMAN,S PRAYER.

By MARY KYLE DALLAS.
Star of the winter night,
Shine on his way:
Moon, lend your amber light,
Let him not stray.
Balmier breeZes blow;
Hold your white shower, snow;
BE very gentle, night, he has gone out to YOU
Gone out alone.
Angels that hearken me,
Cast your sweet spell
Over all evil things,
Near us that dwell;
Hold back the robbers hand;
Pestilence grim command,
Go, while pray to you;
Leave me, and go with him
He is alone.
Fast as the moon scuds
Through the white flushing
Of thick growing cloud buds,
Old Time, thou art rushing!
Canst thou not hnger to list 70 my prayer?
Deal with him tenderly, for, spite my care,
he must 60 on with thee
Go on aleneI
