CoMHEM0RATIoE DAY AT BROWNSVILLE.
Wea informed by the Bee that accord
ing to previous arrangement, very large
assemblage of the citizens Of Browns
Vile and surrounding country met at the
City Hall on the morning of the 2ith,
the anniversary Of the surrender Of the
soldiers of the Confederate States, TO pay
becoming honors to the memory of our
fallen heroes. The Circuit Court now in
session, had adjourned for the occasion.
All .he business houses in the city we're
closed for the time, and the various pub
lie and private schools had turned out in
procession. A gentle, refreshing rain, the
evening previous, hadE .washed off the
streets and settled the dust, besides rem
dering the morning air balmy, cool and
delightful. A soft and gentle southern
breeze played coquetishly with the spark
ling sunshine and dallied amid the green
trees, while thousands of rare flowers
and green leaves blushed in the hands Of
our ladies and misses. filing the air with
delicious odors, and lending an mex
pressible charm to the matchless scene.
From time TO time our ears were RECALLED
with charming music by PEBBLES cornet
band which kindly rendered its services
for the occasion. By half past nine
o'clock all were assembled in the
City Hall. The front seats were
occupied by the pupils Of the various
schools, in holiday attire, in charge Of
their teachers, their fresh young faces
and sparkling eyes vieing in modest
beauty with the blushing flowers they
bore in their hands. The spacious hall
was filed with ladies and gentlemen
most Of them bearing floral tributes &c
offer at the tombs where sleep the hon
ored ashes Of our dead. Colonel Landon

OLD BLUEsroNE.-The report of the
committee appointed by the Legislature
toinvestigate the amount of bonds issued
to the Knoxville and Charleston railroad
exhibits old Bluestone Brownlow, late
Governor of this Commonwealth, in no
favorable light. THE bonds, says the
committee, "have in every instance been
sold at less than their par value, which
is in direct violation of the provisions of
the law. And to make it the more APP
parent how little attention was given to
the wise and salutary provisions of the
internal improvement laws of the State,
it is only necessary to state that the
amount Of individual stock paid in is
$2S73, while the State has issued $780,
900 in bonds From the estimates made
by the engineer, the machinist and the
receiver, it appears that the road is worth
$3.50, l55. This includes$75, 900 in the note
of c. Powell which is regarded worthless,
and consequently would leave the road,
with all its property and assets, worth
only about 1914, 255, or about $l35, 745
less than the principal debt of the State,
saying nothing about the interest due
from the road on the bonds. 1t appears
also that $4,000 in cash, proceeds of
State bonds, was paid back to the State
in interest, which. in the opinion of the
committee, was in direct violation of the
law. The committee would suggest that
some legislation should be enacted to
save the State from the constantly accu-
mulating loss by accruing interest and
the failure of the road to pay its current
expenses" Old limestone is a queer old
coon.

CAIRO ENTERPRISE There seems to
be some enterprise in the little city OF
Cairo. She wishes to stretch her rail
roads lines as far south as possible, and
gather all the trade she can. The Bull
letin of Wednesday urges subscription
of 800, 900 to the Kentucky and Ten
nessee road. Bear in mind, it says,
that the proposition to subscribe $780,
900 to the Kentucky and Tennessee rail-
road must be decided on Monday next,
and that every vote that can be polled
in its favor should be polled. There is a
purpose on the part of rival interests to
form such railroad connections as will
divert the tide of North and South travel
from this route; and unless the Ken
lucky and Tennessee railroad is built, to
connect us more closely with the network
of Southern roads, that purpose will ulti-
mately succeed. A wealthy Southern in
terest is seeking its Northern and North
eastern connections through Padncan.
Another interest, with which st. Louis
is joined, is striving to perfect such a
connection through Columbus, and the
only means known to us by which such
aims may be successfully defeated is by
the construction of the Kentucky and
Tennessee railroad. The subscription
of 100000 by Cairo may secure the con-
