A few days since, the Twelve Apos-

ment in this city, and their facial outlines
were transferred to q permanent position
on the artists materials, in the latest style
of that wonderful art.
Mr.. J. l. R. Boyd, who aspired to be
one of the twelve, was left out OF the
group, and feeling agrieyed at the treat
ment he had received, he breathed sum
mary vengeance against the whole party
There are thirteen Radical members Of
the Legislature (facetiously called the
Apostles) but Mr.. Boyd was considered as
an outsider, as it was alleged that he had
voted for Andrew johnson. For that rea-
son, as We are informed, he was not inclu-
ded in the group of photographs.
He invited the members of the House
and Senate, in solid phalanx, to visit Ames'
menagerie yesterday morning at nine
o'clock, where, as he said, ''they could see
the animals of the creation and also the
immortal twelve" We have no knowledge
of the acceptance of the invitation, but we
do know that large oval frame, contain
ing the photographs of the twelve Radical
members of the House, was yesterday to
seen hung up near the entrance of the
menagerie, on one the inner walls, having
been presented to the institution gratis.

None but persons now in Chattanooga, or
those who have recently visited this mud
favored place, can form any just concep-
ton of the amount of building going on
within its limits. Dozens on dozens of
houses are either nearly completed or now
in process of erection. Many, it is true,
have that temporary style of architecture
which marks the rapid growth of any
city; but others there are substantial and
elegant, that will make homesteads of
which posterity may well be proud.
know of only eighty-sixty drinking
saloons in Chattanooga; but an eminent
physician, a member of the City Council,
long resident here, much respected and a
man of undoubted veracity, tells me that
labor under a mighty mistake. He af-
firms, be it said to the prosperity of this
poisoning place, that there are over a
hundred.
But Chattanooga has places of resort
for the delectation and edifcation of 9th
er regions in man than those situated
south of his breast, among which are
twelve churches, rink and hall where
theatricals are wont to be done, and
whore the WoFreIl Sisters Troupe have
just terminated brief but brilliant sea-
son of tJOO nights.
Chattanooga has water-works. Gas
pipes are now being laid in her streets.
She has six railroads now running into
her, and one from Cincinnati an orc.
She is also manufacturing city, for, be-
sides the eighty-six, or according to the
Doctors Enumeration, hundred manufac-
turing establishments before mentioned,
she has distillery, tannery, foundries,
machine shops, gas-works, furniture,
spoke and hub factories, rolling mills,
grist mills, and a five dollars and costs
mill ground by Recorder Sharp. This
mill has larger custom and takes in more
money than any other institution in the
place. For full and spicy reports of each
