The White river packets are bringing
cotton out of that stream, for New Or

from 81 to $3.50 per bale to reship from

ALBERT JOHNSON, one Of the
cOlOred Representatives to the Leg
islature from this county, requests
us to notice the fact that the police
and other colored persons are en-
gagged in enticing laborers away
from employers, who are passing
through our city with hands whom
they have been at trouble and ex.
pense to procure, and are taking to
their plantations for employment
For instance, the firm Of Mar
shall j. Smith & Co, of New Or
leans, were near suffering by this
unjust practice of some of the
colored ones of our city. They had
been to Virginia and procured
hands and were taking them 10
their plantation on Deer Creek.
Negroes here used every means TO
induce laborers 10 leave by stories
that .they would be sold and ILL
treated, &c. We are glad to see that
Mr.. johnson strongly condemns
such doings, and so do we, and hope
10 hear no more Oft.

Editors ought to be able to live
very cheap-they get "bored" for
nothing.
We don't know how that may
be with Others but It costs us a
fund Of "cliin music.'
An editor compliments q broth
or editor thus: 'Mr. Brown is n
clever thinker, a ready and vigor-
ous writer, and a first. rate clever
fellow to boot"
"Mama"' said a precocous lit
tic boy who, against his will, was
made to rock the cradle of his
baby brother, "If the Lord has
any more babies to give away,
don't you take EN-"
No don't you do it.
An editor never leaves any
money at home for fear of fire,
and never carries any with him
for fear Of robbers, nor deposits
any in bank for fear of speculating
bank officers. He never has any
so far rs we know.

THERE is one proposition in
Senator Fowlers late speech, that
all will agree to. He informed
his hearers that "the Republican
party had lost Tennessee simply
and purely because there was not
wisdom and virtue enough in the
Republican ranks in the State to
hold the power and that oil the
military power in the world
would never make Tennessee a
Republican State again! This is
the substance of the Senator S
revelation, and whether the Sen
ate believed it or not, it is true
nevertheless.

TELEGRAPH UDCrutoFs/

The Enquirer's radical remedy for
the striking oftelegraph operators,
by driving out the males aud coax
ing in the females, would not an-
swer in the loHg run. The work of
the telegraph operator resembles
in many respects, that of q cOmpos-
itor. Some telegraphing aud some
composing may be done By females.
But when II comes TO the sharp,
hard work all night, in telegraph
Offices and the composing room OF
daily newspapers, the qualities de-
manded are those of men of extra
ordinary tenacity Of purpose and
physical endurance. Even the har.
diest men are overtasked in these
most exacling labOres. We tried
faithfully the experiment of EN-
ploying female compositors. Half
a dozen good girls were taught to
set type in this Office, and they
learned TO do tolerably we'll; but
when 1t came to the qtter midnight
matches against time, when the
best nerve, and brain, and muscle,
were in demand and when in the
steady strain of oil hands to i'm.
prove each minute to the utmost,
the cOmpositors' room grows so
still that nothing il heard but the
low click Of the type-in these crit
ical hours The girls 'front.' do.

quiet villages, and for day service,
but in the great Offices Of tho cities
where minutes are precious and
accuracy essential, and where the
work demanding the most absolute
attention goes on oil night, the girls
have not the strength to meet the
demand. This Is the uniform ex-
perience of publishers. 1t docs moi
take great deal of muscle to pick

Our COUNTY RoADs.-The condi-
ton of our County roads demands
the attention of the Board Of Po.
lice. Since the war the roads have
been kept in q barely passable con-
dition. Ifroad overseers managed
to work the sections just sufficient
for travel, it was considered they
had performed their duty.
In consequence tho condition of
our highways of travel have grown
worse aud worse until they are a
shame and disgrace to the county.
Wherever a good piece of road is
found it is owing to the nature Of
the soil or other circumstances and
not to the attention and labor Of
the road overseers. Bridges have
been continued in q most miserable
condition.
After 4 heavy storm, ora rain of
any length, it has been an almost
debateable question whether q per-
son should travel by wagon
or boat, when having occasion to
pass over the quOgmires, fictitious
ly termed roads.
II is true that our soil is such
that the roads are not easily kept
in repair; but what of that? Let
us expend the moro time and labor
upon them, enough, at least, to
place and keep them in respectable
order. 1t is as much labor to go
ten miles over such roads now as
thirty if they were in the order they
should be. This horrid condition
of the roads retards bringing crops
to market, prevents the markets be-
ing literally supplied, prevents
hauling wood 10 market, keeps
back the settlement of the interior,
and is a bad thing all around.
1t is the business of the Board Of
Police 10 see TO this matter and at
their door lies all the blame so far
as we know. We hope these few
desultory remarks will do some
good, aud If we don't hear that they
have VIC will try another dose OF
the same sort.

A GREAT want in this section is
increased mail facilities.
The settlement of the interior is
greatly retarded because of this
disadvantage. There is hardly q
city of our size that has not better
means of communication with In
terror localities. Mails are received
at this point either very late or not
at all.
In the interior the trasportation
of mails seems to be more q matter
of favor than duty. 1t is earnestly
hoped this trouble may be rene.
