and at last have to change their course to
save themselves from general ruin, while
towns that are managed with liberality and
public spirit as well as economy in their
expenditures flourish in credit, enterprise,
culture and property by their OUTLAWS. Let
the one advertise as an inducement for
new corners to purchase and settle there,
cheap taxation but no schools, and none
of the other public advantages which pub
lie spirit land liberality provide while the
other town taxes and furnishes public
privileges and supplies public necessities;
and while the first will steadily retro
grade the. other will as surely march
and upward in all that makes a
town prosperous. We are doing our
friends on the eastern side of the river no
harm in making a general application Of
the principle which controls them in rela-
ton to public schools. A few years will
teach them more forcibly than we can the
mistake under which they labor. We are
content to let the two principles work out
their legitimate results, and then take the
popular voice as to which is best. We are
willing to rest the decision on the question
of dollars and cents. There will be no
difficulty in obtaining reliable demon
stration. Compare the value of property
of the same kind on the two sides of the
river and that will tell the money part OF
the story, which after all, is subordinate to
other considerations in the matter.

Old Wharf.

The old steamboat wharf at the foot of Prince
street now looks lonely and deserted indeed.
The channels of commerce have changed. The
the river trade and travel of Knoxville are
things of the past. The time was when this old
wharf was full of life and covered with goods
boxes and all kinds of merchandise instead of
weeds and an old coal pile as at present. The
steamboat whistle then called the omnibusses
and hotel porters to the landing instead of the
depot to scramble for patronage. Our merchants
by roundabout route on land and water came
back from New York by way of Chattanooga.
and going to New York then was almost like
going to the South Sea Islands now
aAThe history of Knoxville may be divided in
to three eras-the wagon era, the steamboat era
and the railway era, according as her trade has
been carried respectively by these three modes
of conveyance.
