EDS. CHRONICLE: The line Of the
new county, (Houston) taking q part
Of Montgomery county, was sur yeyed
one day last week. The line runs
from a point on the river a little above
here, due south to the Dickson coun-
ty line, taking about 80 square miles
Off Of Montgomery. An election Is
to be held on the Odd inst, at Myers
Mill, for the people to decide "old or
new" county.
This tax question bothers us, some
think that 1t would not cost as much
to build a Courthouse andJ Jail for the
new county, as it would to build the
contemplated, Sl5O,OOO Courthouse
and Jail for Montgomery county, and
besides there are 80 many donations
made for the northern part Of Mont
gomery, and nothing at all for this
portion. However, the election will
decide. Dor AND DASH.

Mr.. Twain not being much of q
potato raiser by birth, thought best
to put 1t In the hands of some relia-
BILE man in whom the public had
confidence. The result and report
of the first crop were as follows, viz :
"Having no ground Of my own"
says the farmer, "I planted one
pound of the Early Summers i'm u
Macadamized road near my house,
supposing the ground to be too much
trodden to produce well. l was ad-
vised to apply plaster, so 1 put one
of Alcock's porus plasters to each
hill. The result was amazing-in IL
days l had ten bushels of Buckeyes
I'm two days more, had one hundred
bushels of Pin keyes, in three weeks
Il pair of black-eyes, and in eight
months after twins, and in three
days more, had to give strong bond
to keep the peace.
Now, If Mr.. Killebrew, the able
agricultural editor of the Nashville
Union and American, i'm his investi-
cations of the II and products
of the State, find any variety earlier
than this, he can rely on selling it IN
this market. $3.50.
