| whole row of STORES Destroyed.
As'smPssd BnrsiaFyY

. Yesterday morning atabOut 9 quarter
to three o o'clock, q fire broke out In the
store Of O. a. Spaulding & Brothers, at
Guthrie; the terminus OF the Edgefeld
and Kentucky Railroad, and continued to
rage until an entire row Of stores was de-
stroyed, including the postofice and drug
store. sts-AAA .-asaA e-ae
1t is supposed that the fire was the re-
suit Of an attempted burglary, as chisel
was found in the safe of Spaulding d
Brothers, and there were other indications
that burglars had been on the premises.
One of the firm had usually slept in the
store at night, but being unwell, he was
absent night before last, and as no one
took his place, the store was without any
one to watch it.
The principal losers by this fire are q.
A. Spaulding & Brother, $1,000, II. @.
Bennett 1900, Mr.. Merriwether 81, 900,
Mrs. Cane 81, 300, and w. F. Bib 81, 900.
The only buildings, except dwellings,
left in the town, are two hotels and four
whisky shops or groceries. While the
flames were progressing, keg of gun
powder in one Of the stores blew up, and
added considerably to the excitement,
The untiring efforts of the train men on
the Edge6eld and Kentucky Railroad,
saved much of the property that would
otherwise have been destroyed.

heavy and dull this evening at 1910 for
strict middlings, under the very unfavor-
able reports rom the New York and Liver
pool markets. Both markets closed dull
with downward tendency. Futures we're
sold In New York yesterday Or August
next at 14kc, and for December and Jenu-
airy next at 14sc. OF course such opera
lions as these tend to break the market
down, but at the same time, We think, our
YANKEE friends are going it blind.

wore About the ScnnIan AFFAIR

We learned yesterday that Jeems Owen,
the negro who IS charged with the murder
of Bartholomew Seaman, and who is sup
posed TO have thrown his body from the
Stones river bridge, is the same negro who
a year or two ago had a party of negroes
arrested for Ku-K!uxing him Owen. He
alleged that they came to his house, broke
IT open, run him out Of the house and shot
him IN the back. He came to Nashville,
as VIC are informed, visited Joseph Cooper,
obtained posse of State Militia, arrested
the negroes il Wilson county, and had
them brought here to be tried, but they
we're afJerward discharged for want Of
jurisdiction in this county. The excuse
Of the negroes who Ku-Kluxed him was
that he locked favorably upon too many
negro women.
TITS furthermore said that Owen formerly
belonged to DIR. John Owen of Lebanon.
and that Jeems used to be a Methodist
preacher

ANDES INSURANCE COMPANY.
- a sr,rceszfuI bnstgsuti,us

We have heretofore said something
about the magnitude and importance Of
the business Of underwriting in this ooun-
try The following remarks and state
ment taken from the Cincinnati Gazette
show The wonderful progress of one of our
American insurance companies; e yn 80
The Andes Insurance Company was
chartered April 2, 1870. i Its first election
of directors and officers was held June, Is.
The capital Of one million dollars was all
paid in by the 18th of July, less than one
month after its organization. q -
July IA, 1870, the State Auditor person
ally examined the assets OF the company,
and granted it his off ,ial certificate, in
compliance with law, to do business. Its
first policy was issued of even date there
with ~ -. NV w
During the first year of its existence,
nearly fifteen hundred agencies have been
established of which nearly one thousand
have actively commenced business. 1t
must be borne in mind that these agencies
are the great auxiliaries of the company,
and that special care is employed in the
selection of the least of them; and several
are of the greatest importance, mainly
none but men who have been well known
as skillful and pre-eminently commanding
in both character and position having been
appointed to the important trust of repre-
senting the Andes. All of these agencies
are rapidly getting to work, with the most
encouraging prospects of a large and valu-
able patronage.
From the circular we quote the follow
ing, which shows the exact amount of busI-
ness transacted during the first five and a
half months of the conlpanys existence:

Our Railroad Interests-Importa
Bill in ChancerY

At the last session of the Legislature, &
bill was passed in reference to the sale OF
the States interest in railroads. The coun
sci for the State have fled in the Chancery
Court bill to sell the States interest in
every road in Tennessee, and next Monday
is the last day allowed in which to answer
said bill Several of the railroads as well
as the county of Davidson will resist the
sale, and their counsel are now preparing
an answer to the bill above mentioned
The county of Davidson alone has an
interest in various railroads to the extent
of about 81, 100000, and able counsel
have been employed to look after the
county's interest. We feel assured that
these counsel, in conjunction with the
Comfy Commissioners, will do ell in their
power to see that the rights of the county
are properly protected.
1t is probable that large number of an
swers will be filed on Monday to this bill
by various roads, and lively time among
railroad men may be expected. Outside of
this bill, there are several other railroad
developments which may shortly be ex-
pected, among them one in which a very
prominent railroad is interested; and Of
these various matters, as far as in our
power, we will endeaVor to keep our read
ers fully advised. But as there are some
railroad men who, in some respects, re-
mind one of what Bret Harte remarks in
regard to another class when he says,
" That for ways that are dark,
And for tricks that are vain,
The heather Chinee is peculiar
As soon as the answers above referred to
have been filed, we intend to give synop-
sis of the whole case as presented ts the
court.

Aside from the interest attaching to the

the visits OF number of lovely ladies' to
the building, it was exceedingly dull at the

tive Office, the Office Of the Secretary of

that the surplus capital has accumulated to
nearly two hundred thousand dollars in the
short space of five aud half months, and

also IN almost all the other States; and
that it has firm foothold in the great
commercial cities Of New York, Boston
and Philadelphia,
