Il viii be remembered that Rev. DR..
Moore and his family left this city some
time since for Monticello, Florida In
letters received by the Doctors friends in
this city, the statement is made that the
Doctor health had improved very much
since his change of climate.
The Colonel George Pattison mentioned
in yesterdays paper as being in the city,
was, as we are informed, an intimate
friend of Felix Grundy, Andrew Jackson
and EE-President Polk. The Colonel sp-
pears to be in fGe health for one of his
years, and notwithstanding the fact that
he has outlived SO many distinguished
men, yet hearty and robust He visited
this city IN connection with some business
in the Federal Court, and left yesterday
for Memphis
Gen. George W. Gordon arrived in the

istered at the Maxwell; also the following
named gentlemen Messrs. W. Hall

horticultural society.

The Society met in regular session at -
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Minutes OF
previous meeting were read and accepted.
The committee, consisting OF Messrs.
Dortch. DIR. W. d. Kline, and j HEAVIER,
appointed to'confer with the committee of
the Agricultural Association, made a re-
port to the effect that it was desirable that
the Agricultural and Mechanical ASsocls-
ton and the Horticultural Society should
unite and cooperate IN the ensuing Fall
Exhibition, Floral Hall to be under the
Supervision of the latter without its losing
it's identity as a separate and independent
association. The report, after some dis
cussIon, was adopted, the feelings OF the
members being favorable to the co-opera-
ton.
The conclusion was arrived at that the
society would have no regular spring ex-
hibition, in view of the Industrial EXPOSE
ton, and the proposed cooperation with
the Agricultural Society.
Mr.. Hamilton moved that all the mem
bers of the association entitled to tickets
to the regular Horticultural Exhibition, be
admitted to the Agricultural Fair at half
fare. Withdrawn.
On motion of Mr.. French the President
was authorized to appoint committees to
carry out the arrangement Of cooperation
with the Agricultural Society in the fall
exhibition. The appointment of said COM
mittees was deferred until Tuesday next,
when financial affairs connected with the
| association will also be Gsidered.
On motion of DR.. w. d. Kline vote
| of thanks was unanimously extended to
the UNION AND AMERICAN for its uniform
and accurate reports of the meetings OF
the society, and the interest manifested in
its success and prosperity.

Arrested for Poisoning.

By request of DR.. G. W. Roberts, who
resides away out in North Nashville, near
the German Garden, negress was arrested
Yesterday on the charge of poisoning a
child of his, soma four or five years of
age. Ber name is Celia Paine, and until
recently was in the employ of DR.. Roberts,
but not long since he discharged her.
since which time, as We are informed, she
has been living at a next door neighbours.
She was said to be very angry at the Doc
tors family because of being discharged.
The charge against her is to the effect that
she possessed herself in some way with a
phial of hartshorn, or squa ammonia, and
went into the kite en- of DR.. Roberts, and
during the absence, temporarily, Of all the
rest, uncoIked the phial and persuaded or
forced the child to drink good share of
the contents, which of course threw it into
spasrns, ard at last accounts it was not
known wkether the child would survive.
At the moment the child had swallowed
the dose, it's parents came into the apart
mept. and saw what had happened, when
the Doctor took her in charge, and as soon
as he could leave the child, brought her
into the city, and delivered her over to
the officers Of the law. She was taken be-
fore Justice Cassetty, and after hearing
the charges and statements, committed
her to iail until Tomorrow, when she will
have a further hearing, The above is the
most authentic account Of the affair that
we could get hold Of up to late hour last

in the course of which Perry assaulted
Knelly with rocks, striking him twice on
the head, cutting him in a fdghtful man
ner, and, it was thought, fracturiDg his
skull. Perry was IN perfect rage, and
had he not been prevented would prob
ably have killed Knelly. One of the stones
which he threw went IN at the window of
the hotel, smashing the glass to pieces
He was arrested and brought before Jus
tice Albert, charged with an assault with
intent to kill, and his Honor required him
to give bond in the sum Of 81, 900 for his

Ups and Downs of Impeachment
Exciting COnIretemPs-HOu APP
peaIing 10 Congress against Clay
ton-TVvO Governors and TWO Su-
preme Judges.
MEMPHIS, Feb. lS.-Tle Avalancbe's
Little Rock special says that when the
roll was called only thirteen members
were present, the same as yesterday, not
a quorum. The presiding officer an
nOuuced no quorum present.
Mr.. Hadley moved an adjournment to
Mondsy.
Mr.. Frierson had a motion to offer.
The President, disregaIding him put the
motion to adjourn, which was carried.
Mr.. Frierson declared this damnab,e
outrage on our rights, Infamous, ungen-
tIemau'v and unpaTIiamentaTy.
At tbs point the impeachment mana
gers Appeared. The announcement Of
the Senste's adjournment being made,
they AGAIN returned without impeach-
mcnt
Articles Of impeachment against Chief
Justice Mcclure were press nted in the
House by Mr.. Padgett, He said be read
in q Republican editorial yesterday every
thing possible for the people. Mcclure
is charged with conspiring with the Gov
eruur to Gust 1t. Gov. Johnston. The
articles, after three hours of discussion,
were adopted by vote Of A to 80. The
vote was reConsideTed and lail on the
table.
Mr.. Padgett Offered another resolution,
recitirg that the Governor refused to sur
render his Office after impeachment by
the House, and memOTializing the Presl-
dent Of the United States and Congress to
guarantee q republican form Of govern
ment 30 the people of Arkansas, to pro
tcct them from the usurpations of Gay
ton. Under the rules the resolution lies
over.
The House then adjourned till Monday.
The Sheriff reported 10 the Supreme
Court that be had been unable TO get per
sCnal service on the Lieutenant Governor
to answer why the Chief Justices in
junction to prevent his acting as Gov
co. should not be made permanent, but
be had eft notice.
We have two Governors and probably
will have two Chief Justices on Monday.
C0avt1n refuses TO surrender his Office.
Mcclure is understood to do the same.
1t is thought Johnson will appoint sue
cessor 70 Mcclure. Clayton hss his house
guarded, swearing in all the militia he
can get, and that is very few. 1t is sup
posed the Supreme Court will decide the
quo warrantO case before the articles OF
Impeachment can be presented against

DIstIiIeries in Robertson County
Three Sonn 10 be in ODernIion.


One distillery went into operation the
other day in Robertson county and two
are soon to commence operations.
On the 18th instant the distillery Of
George Fl. Garrett & Co., a mile or a mile
and a half from Springfield in Robertson
county, went into operation, the necessary
papers made out at the Internal Revenue
Office in this city, having been approved at
Washington. The capacity Of this distil-
lery Is about 24O gallons per day. For the
present it will only be run at half capacity,
though it will commence fGll operations
soon.
The distilllery of G. q. q G. r. Wood
ward in the 10th civil district Of Robertson
county, will commence probably, about the
LIST of NAV. This distillery has not been
in operation for about year. The papers
il this case we're expected to leave the
Revenue office yesterday, for Washington.
The original papers for DIR. George A.
Draughon's distilleIy in Robertson county
have been approved, but be has conclud-
ed not to run on those papers, IS he de-
sires to change from small tubs TO large
tubs. This distillery is expected to start
about the first week in March
And in this connection, for the infor-
NATION Of small distilleIs especially, we
may remark that there appears to lie an
impression that some change has been
made in the law effecting small distilltrs-
Some two or three parties have lately been
into the Revenue office here, to ask ''if
the tax had not been taken off" We can
saw on coed authority that no change has
been made in the law affecting either
large or small distilers for the last two
wears except this, that disdlleries cOntin-
ually in the process Of distillation are al
lowed to use coal, which formerly was
not the casa

Tns Storm and our RaiIroads.

The prevalence of the terrible rain and
wind storm that has just passed was very
general over this section of the country;
our railroad men knowing this, and feeling
that the utmost precautiOn was necessary,
in operating their roads, for the preservs-
ton of both life and property, have lost no
time nor spared any pans to render life
and properly safe on the roads. The head
quarters Of the roads in this city are in
continual communication with all points on
the various lines, and the section men
have been instructed 70 use double vigi-
lence in Watching all dangerous points, or
all p aces liable to be damaged by the great
rush Of Water that exists all over, and more
especially in the billy and mountainous
districts. The Northwestern road having
been undergoing repairs of late, thereby
causing many new made places that have
never been tried before by the elements,
it was thought advisable to withdraw all
freight tr ms from the road for a day or
two, for fear that heavy trains of this kind
might, under the circumstances, prove dis
sstrous both to them and the road; the
passenger trains have been placed under
special instructions, and there Is little fear
th any serious accidents Will occur on
any of the roads leading from this city,
although the storm, both from wind and
rain, has been one of the severest that has
visited this country for very great while.
