SUCCESSFUL DRAWINGS. accom-
pllshed friend, John ii. Freeman, Of this
e city, drew from the matrimonial lottery, on
the 3lst of October, a beautiful, noble and
loving wife-the jewel of jewels, the capt.
tai prize, above all price. On the 4th Of
November following he drew the elegant
cabinet inlaid Grover & Baker Sewing Ma
chine, which was rafied OF at the West
Tennessee Fair. Thus the Morn Of his
welded life breaks doubly bright. He has
the Jewel, and the cabinet to set it in.
A FINE RESIDENCE DESTROYED BY
FIRE.-The 1ne residence of j. NJ. Parker,
on the corner of Main and Royal streets,
was consumed by fire on the morning of
the 10Th. 1t caught about seven O'Clock, it
is supposed from a defective fue in the
cook room, and in few moments, even
before the sounding of the alarm, the flames
were beyond control. Fire Company No. 1
was promptly on the grounds, and through
their highly disciplined efforts, aided by
several citizens, most of the furniture was
saved, and the residence of Mr.. Irrelevant,
close by, prevented from taking fire. The
loss over and above insurance, will reach
at least $500. Mr.. Parker's wife and
| daughter made a narrow escape from the
burning building. The houseless family
have the sympathies OF the entire commu-
nifty, and every kindness and attention
necessary, in their sad calamity, was
promptly extended.

Tue GILBERT SIsTERs.-The opening
performance Of this dramatic troupe Thurs
day evening, at Tomlin's Hall was well at
tended and enthusiastically applauded.-
The elegant comedy, "All that glitters is
not gold,' was charmingly rendered, and
the farce irresistibly amusing. The COM
pany possess a high order of dramatic tai
emit, and will not tail to draw crowded hOu-
ses during their engagement. 1t is an ex-
hibition eainently worthy Of patronage,
being ehaste and instructive as well as
amusing. The Jackson string band, and
the Silver Cornet Band have been engaged,
which guarantees delightful music. The
splendid drama, "Fanehen,' is on the bills
for this (Friday) evening.
TAKE STOCK.-The Directors of the West
Tennessee Fair have continued c. W.
Green in the office Of Secretary, and au-
thorized him to at once proceed to raise the
capitol stock to $4,000. The books are
now open for that purpose, and many are
increasing, or taking new stock. The splen-
did success of our first Fair has slenced all
doubt, and the people of old Madison are
now united IN the cause. We want to i'm
prove and ornament the grounds; increase
premium list, and, otherwise, improve and
enlarge the scheme. To this end every man
Is solicited to increase or take stock. The
grounds can and should be made the most
beautiful in the State, and the Fair une-
qualed by any in the South. Let this be
the ambition Of all.
A SUIvENLR OF THE PASTA few days
ago we saw a license issued in Nashville in
1876 TO Mr.. VIM Birdsong, authorizing him
to keep tavern in that village. 1t is a
quaint old document, printed in the formu-
la Of seventy-hve years ago. Middle and
East Tennessee were then part of North
Carolina, and this western district the ia
vorite hunting ground OF the Indians. The
