NASHVILLE UNION AND AMERICAN FHoRsDAY FEBRUARY 1871

while passing the public square, the said
gentle, safe horse, from some cause I'M
known, took fright, started off at full
speed, and making sudden turn, cap
sized the buggy, emptying out driver,
wife, child and other loose freight, great
ly to the terror and dismay of citizens,
who happened to be in large numbers on
the streets at the time. Quick as thought,
however, a crowd rushed to the scene,
anxious to render any necessary assist
ance. The good lady, bruised, fainting,
and almost senseless, was picked up and
borne by stout arms to the nearest house,
where couch, blankets, etc., were kind
ly furnished, and the usual restora-
tiVes administered. Then, on look
ing round for the devoted hus-
band and father, in order that he, too,
might be properly cared for, it was found
that he had folloi0ed straight on after
the frightened and fast fleeing horse, not
having had tie presence of mind even
to look back to see whether his doting
wife and child were among the living or
dead. After safely securing his horse,
counting up how many pieces of buggy
he had and estimating the probable cost
of repairs, he promptly reported to his
better half and had the qualification to
find that she, though still suffering great
ly, was not fatally injured, and that alto
gether the accident was not as bad as it
might have been. Such instances are
certainly rare, but sometimes happen even
in well regulated families.
MORAL. Always watch ''gentle
horse"
2. Should an accident happen, take
care of self first and horse next feeling
assured that friends win pick up all the
loose fragments of women and children.

HAVE WE a POET AMONG US 2

To the Editors of the Union and American:
While novelty is ever attractive, or at
all events capable of arresting, and, for a
time, fixing attention, yet it is by no
means certain that it invites friendly OF
generous criticism; and the public is
slow, if not averse, to recognize merit in
that which is new. The coquette, popu-
lsrity, is wooed and won more easily by
delicate, ceaseless advances than by a
sudden, bold effort Esteem must be Sc
cured without seeming to seek it, and admi-
ration so cautiously awakened as scarcely
to allow the consciousness of its presence
Of nothing is public favor more chary
than contemporary poetic favor. When,
however, it is once conceded, it is most
reluctant TO abandon the attachment.
Our city has not been very prolific of
poetic talent, and while every other
branch of literature seems to have been
industriously cultivated, the muses. have
been badly neglected.
was turning over the leaves of the
Ladies' Pearl for January, when my
eye CHANGED to rest upon poem, as it
purported to be
TIME-THE OLD YEAR AND THB NEW. "
With my patience prepared to count
syllables and search for rhymes, to en-
dure plstitudes and sickly sentimental
ties, began its perusal. Scarcely had l
reached the seventh line when ray of
light burst through its numbers and lit its
verse with the radiance of true poetic
fire. Varied gems of thought, each with
hue entirely its own, spsrkled in the
beauteous depths of felicitous sentiment
and genuine feeling. Noiword, torture,
no affected passion, no strainiDg
for effect, but the ETHEREAL touch of mind
playing fondly with the strings of the
heart, awaking sweetest melodies, recall
ing tender memories, shadowing the past
in softest melancholy, then kindling bright
hopes, arousing glorious aspirations and
dropping the pen with a joyous smile
upon the page. Then, and not till then,
did realize that we have q poet among
US. turned again to the title, but be-
meath it appeared no name, nay not even
initials, to tell-to hint, to whom l Was
indebted for SO much pleasure. Whether
it be without a nom de plume or T1On1i-
mas atr1brG, l hope such pen may never
be idle. And from the impulse of the
moment while my heart is aglow with de-
lightful emotion, seek thus to thank the
author for the happiness the poem has
afforded me and to hail the promise of
poetic fame for our city. G.

EXTRACTS FROM OUR BUSINESS
CORRESPONDENT
What They Say of the ''PeOpIe's
Paper.o

Paper.o
One of the young and rising men of
Tennessee, writing us from Palestine,
Obion county, says: 81 have been reading
your invaluable paper for some time, and
am highly pleased with it, and regard it
among the best papers now published; and
that it deserves the patronage of all those
who feel interested in the affairs of Ten
nessee. Besides the reports from all parts
of the State, there is vast amount Of
valuable information in the UNION AND
AMERICAN from every quarter of the globe.
The sentiments of the people of Ten
nessee are decidedly Democratic and
opposed to Radicalism, and they
are satisfied the Peoples Paper
is q faithful exponent of these senti-
ments entertained by the people, and that
they and the UNION AND AMERICAN
are equally opposed to all third party
moves or Go betweens' as we call them
down here. People here are very much
pleased with your paper, and if We had an
office over two hundred families would get
their mail matter here. Send us the
Peoples paper, though we have to go
eight miles to get it.
1t is truly gratifying to get such whole
souled endorsements as the foregoing, and
such we get daily from every quarter; for
which, and thousands of other evidences
of cooperation and approval we make our
heartfelt Acknowledgements to our young
friend and hosts Of others. Send them
along.
Our iocose friend A, writing Us from
Indian Mound, says: Nearly all the PEG
pie take the UNION AND AMERICAN, and
those who do not subscribe manage by
hook or crook to read the paper. know
one man who rides miles to get to 60TTo0o
his distant nelghbor's UNIuN AND AMERI-
CAN. so anxious are they to read 1t. He
thus spends about two hours every week
in going to borrow, which in one year will
take about 104 hours, or a little over 10
days time, which will pay for several copies
of your cheap, large, full paper. l tell
them all to subscribe, each man for him
self-and l am right.
Your argument and your conclusion are
both right, and so are you. Your head Is
level on the paper question, and you can
pass. Go ahead, and teach and urge them
to follow after the peoples Paper.
Thank you heartily.
Our lifelong friend F., at Smithville,
will, we hope, find his copy all right IN
future. He talks like man of heart and
sense, saying, 81 value your paper as high
" as any other one does, and dc not wish
to lose any of the numbers"
Friend B., at Woodville, says: 81 send
you 50 for your most valuable paper. 1t Is
the thing for every man. wish you great
success, etc. We hope to hear from you
often. Keep the ball moving.
Our valued. excellent friend B. at Fay
etteville, says: ''For two years l have
been a subscriber to the UNION AND AMER
loan. When I removed here at the first
of the year did not renew my subscrip-
ton, because felt too poor; but cannot
get along without that paper, so please re-
enter my name for the Daily and send it
along here for me-" That's sensible,
good man, and others are following the

Charge OF Ku.Kluxing Negroes
Absentmindedness An Episode in

CnarRe OF hushIuAlnE Negroes
observation-disclosures: An Episode in
Paris.
Correspondence OF the Union and American.
PARIS, TENN, Jan. so, 1S71.-Our
Circuit Court has been in session here
since Monday last, and the whole of last
week was pretty much occupied in the
trial of certain parties charged with being
concerned in Ku-Klux outrages perpe-
trated on some negroes living in the
southern portion of the county.
That the outrages were committed, as
alleged, and that the negroes were most
inhumsnly treated, was clearly estab-
lished, but so far, neither of the individ-
uals charged has been convicted. In two
of the cases, after patient and thorough
investigation and most able and rigid
prosecution by the Attorney General for
this Circuit, assisted by two or three 9TH
er able attorneys, the parties we're ac-
quilted, and in one case the jury failed to
| agree upon a verdict. A fourth individ-
same parties, is now on trial, with what
result remains to be seen. 1t does not ap-
pear that any political signit-
canoe can be properly attached to
these outrages, since all classes of our
people, of every shade of political opinion
appear to be equally anxious for the most
thorough investigation, to the end that the
fair escutcheOn of our county may not be
furnished by evil report, the majesty of
the law INDICATED and the fact clearly
established that the negroes, as a class,
are as secure in their rights of person and
property as any other portion of our
citizens. Yet the fact should notbe ignored
that in such of the cases thus brought be
fore our court by injured co.ored people,
the parties charged belonged to the loyal
class, and one connected with the Federal
service during ''the late unplesssntness.
But these and all similar instances, aOiU
be ignored, no doubt, by the Radical
fuglemen who are smelling around in
search of further pretexts to justify the
enormity of another attempt to rivet the
chains of the partially relieved, but still
suffering, prosecuted people of the South.
1t is understood that indictments are pen
ding against several other parties for
similar offences, but whether they can
lay claim to the same antecedents and will
be equally successful in GLIDING the
clutches of the law, has not yet transpired.
The court will probably continue in ses-
sion all this week and possibly next.
Should its proceedings furnish any further
items likely to interest I'll advise you.
An instance of abSentnaiYlded-
ness somewhat remarkable, and
which came near being attended
| with serious results, occurred on
our streets few days ago. One of our
substantial, well to do farmers came to
town, accompanied by his wife and little
son, and driving one of those gentle, per-
| fectly safe horses we so often hear about,
but which; some how or other, are more
given to naughty tricks than any Others.

THE GREAT
SPRING AND SUMNER TONIC

Medical treatment has been revolution
lied, and at last the discovery has been
made that Revocation, not PrOstrGtiOn, is
the true Medical Philosophy. The intro
duction of PLANTATION BITTERs,
prepared with pure st. Oroix Rum and
Oalisaya Bark, opened the eyes of the
world to this great fact The ife-sustain-
ing principle embodied in this great Vege-
table Restorative is manifested in the weak
and responding by an immediate and most
encouraging change. If the appetite has
failed, it is quickened; if digestion has
been painful and imperfect, it becomes easy
and thorough; if the liver is torpid, it is
reused and regulated; if the nerves are re-
Taxed, they are strengthened and restrung;
If the brain has been haunted by morbid
fancies, they are put to fight, and hope and
cheerfulness return. In the face of the e1-
traordinary cures Of general debility, dysS
pepsia, biiousness, constipation and men
tai dependency, wrought by Plantation
Bitters, no practitioner not in league with
death and the undertaken could persist in
it. The terrible evacuerts which were once
prescribed as the spring and summer med
icines, have utterly lost their prestige. The
sick will not take them, and Plantation
Bitters, in which are combined the
msnts of stomachic, and inyigorant,
mild laxative, a rervine and an anti-bilious
specific, reign in their stead

LYNNvILLE, GILES Co., TENN, Jan. %,
1871.-This village is located on the
Nashville and Decatur Railroad, 60 miles
south of Nashville, and IA miles north
of Pulaski. There was not a single
building in the village at the termination
of the late war. 1t can now boast of 400
inhabitants, 7 dry good stores, saloons,
/ drug store, blacksmith chop, 2 sad
dler's shops, l livery stable, wood shop,
l furniture shop, ! church and 2 hotels.
Here are examples of energy and enter
prise that deserve to be initiated The
schools are flourishing, and in fact bust
ness of every kind seems brisk and &C
tive. The lands in the sur
rounding country are fertile and pro-
duce abundantly. There was a great
deal of cotton planted in this vicinity,
but there was scarcely an average yield.
There will not be SO much cotton planted
during the ensuing season, nor more than
half as much wheat grown as last year.
There will be more grass sown, and more
hogs and cattle raised than heretofore.
The 'sPeople's Paper is very popular
here, and its list of subscribers has lately
increased.
Your correspondent recently visited
Campbellsville, eight miles west of this
place. 1t contains three dry goods stores,
one blacksmith shop, and one wood shop,
and is situated on a beautiful stream of
water. The spirit of improvement and
progress seems to prevail there, as some
fine new residences and a Masonic Hall
and Academy have been recently erected.
The people appear to be cheerful, pros
porous and happy. The "People's Pa
per" is a welcome visitor to almost every
Preside in that vicinity, and you may
soon expect still larger increase of sub
scribers at that place. l cannot conceive
how it is possible for any one, (no mat
ter what his avocation or profession may
be, to dispense with good, cheap and
reliable newspaper. So continue to send
US your valuable and interesting paper,
by far the cheapest, sblest and best, not
only in Tennessee, but in the South.
