Heavy wind storm.

Between midnight and daylight yester-
day morning, very severe wind storm
prevailed in this locality. The wind blew
in fitful gusts, for time making houses
shake and playing all sorts of freaks with
window shutters. Yesterday it was much
cooler, and continued so until late last
night

Sellers OF Prize Candy Packages
CIassed With Gift Enterprise Pro-
PrietOrs.
The sale of prize packages, such as can
dies, envelopes, stationery. ETC., has been
carried on in this region quite extensively,
and with varied degrees of success. Es-
adjustments where this sort of business is
exclusively conducted have been opened.
and the country towns and railway trains
have been flooded with their agents. II
may be interesting to know that by recent
decisions all who sell candy, or any other
article, offering with said candy or other
article the gift or bestowal of any other
article or articles, varying, or liable to
vary in value, or the gift OF bestowal of
money varying in amount in the different
packages, as an inducement to the purchase
of candies or other objects offered for sale.
are considered as proprietors of a GIFT en-
terprise, and subject to the special tax

plate dealing in prize packages of candy or
other articles of chance and precarious
value would do well to bear this fact in
mind

TBOS. III. RUTLER FOR SECRE-
TARY OF STATE.
Q the Editors q the Union and American:

To the Editors OF the Union and American:
GAINEsBoRO, Jackson county, Tenn,
May l, 1S70.-Permit me through your
columns to present to the General Assem-
bly, the name of Thomas II. Butler, of
Jackson county, as a suitable person to be
chosen to fill the important position of
Secretary of State. Without disparaging
The claims of any other aspirant, l can
safely say that no one will be found more
worthy or better qualified to fill so ardu-
Gus and responsible a position than Mr..
Butler. lie is a gentleman of the highest
order of integrity, and first order of quail
ications, has been for many years the ac-
tive, polite and efficient clerk of the Cir
cult Court of Jackson county, in which
position he has rendered full and entire
satisfaction to the Bench, the Bar and the
people. lie is a gentleman of ripe expe-
rience and fair legal attainments, and will
come before the Legislature as a candI-
date, recommended by the Bench, the Bar
and the people of the Sixth Judicial Cir
cult, and his acquaintance everywhere.
And as we can present TO the Legis-
iature q candidate so highly recon-
mended and so eminently quail
fled, might We not hope for his sue
cess? Jackson county is over an average
county of the State, in wealth and pOpu-
.latiOn; we contribute largely to the fl
nances of the State; we never have been
represented in the State Department; we
have always been supporting political as
pirants of Nashville and Whereabouts, and
might We not now ask them to hold back
and give us a chance? JACKSON.
INQUIRIES ABOUT BROOM CORN.
To the Editors of the Union and American:
NEAR MURFREEsBORO, May 2, 1870.-I
see a statement in your weekly from Mr..
N. d. OViatt, in reference to the culture
of broom-cOrn. He says plant on cool
ground from three and half to four feet
apart. Upon that point l wish to gain
information. ! amplanting two and half
feet apart on ground that an ordinary
season would bring from seven or eight
barrels per acre. My reasons for planting
that distance was based upon information
gained from writers claiming to have the
experience of years in its culture that it
grew upon the principle of cotton, that is,
the roots running directly in the ground
and not like Indian corn, upon the sur
face. And if SO must confess that l
do not see the necessity of such
wide rows and hence if the roots
do not interfere with each other
it is not likely the brush will;
though not having any experience in its
culture whatever. | am planting over
100 acres this season, and that will OK
plain to you the reason why l am making
this intrusion upon your columns, to gain
information of others of experience. If
| am wrong in making my rows too mar
row, the question arises, in what proper
ton will have to thin it out in the drill
in order to prevent it from damaging, or
in what manner will narrow rows affect
it? would like for you to give space in
for this in your valuable weekly, a mes
senger that is highly appreciated by me
every Thursday. RUTHERFORD.

A Complicated Case of Alie=et
False Pretenses-One Man Get,
Pay for Arrests Made by Another
NAN -Judicial Inquiry, Mutual
Bonds, Etc.
Not long since we noted the fact that the
two men charged with having robbed and
murdered a pedlar named Friedman, in
Maury county, had been arrested and taken
to Columbia for trial. The State had Of
fered reward of five hundred dollars for
the arrest of the murderers, and it is al
legged that L. Layman claimed and received
the reward. Mr.. Layman was yesterday
arraigned before Justice Brien, at the in-
stance of Thomas NJ Bass, of Columbia.
to be tried for obtaining money by means
OF false pretense, Mr. Bass contendino that
the arrests were made by himself, and not
by Mr.. Layman.
The hearing of the case was deferred
until the goth inst, at which time the af-
fair viii be fully investigated. The accused
was required TO provide security in the
sum of $4,000 for his appearance, which
he did. Subsequently Mr.. Layman charged
MIR. Bass with assault with intent to kill,
and MIR. Bass was also required to give
bond in the sum of 81, coo for his appear
ance on the goth. We know nothing of
the circumstances under which the alleged
assault was made, but hardly presume they
were as serious as the charge indicates.
In view of the fact that both cases are to
be made subjects of future adjudication.
we abstain from further detail in either.

other property, besides the building in
which the works were contained. The en-
