New business House.

We were shown, on yesterday, by Mr.. James
Somerwith, the architect, the design for the new
building to be erected by Mr.. Branner, which
will be occupied by Messrs. Chamberlain &
Albers. The entire front is of marble, with
Tuscan entablature, and will be three stories
high. The front windows of the first floor will
consist of single pane of French glass for each,
and the door the same way with full transom.
The building will be one hundred feet deep by
twenty-one in width. The marble for the work
is being procured from Col. John Williams
quarry, two miles from the city, and the marble
cutters are at work dressing the stone, When
completed it will be beautiful edifcs, and will
no doubt give an impetus to the use of marble
as building material, which is as durable as
time itself, almost

An Honest Boast.

The brick work of the immense building now
being erected by Messrs. Cowan, McClung &
Co. is finished, and the walls are ready for the
roof There are but three mercantile establish
ments in the United States, as far as we know,
that have larger buildings devoted exclusively
to their own business The wholesale and re-
tail blocks of A. T. Stewart s. Co. and the build
ing of Clafin & Co., New York, are all larger,
but we believe next to these no firm uses more
room for their own business than this new build
ing will afford. 81, ~ = e+
The building is so feet front, 167 feet deep and
including its fine large basement room, which
is we'll lighted and aired it is five stories high.
There were 1, 4o0O 600 brick used in the walls,
which vary from three feet to q inches in
thickness. The basement floor is II feet high,
the LIST floor l6, the 3D. 16, the Sd 144, and the
4th Is feet high. Each floor is to be devoted to
separate departments, and their stock in the fall
when they will occupy it, will be the largest
ever sent South to one firm. Their sales last
year were near two millions, and their business
is constantly extending. This is an honest boast
of which Knoxville may we'll be proud.
