WE assume that Gen. Malone
will commence and press to compile
ton in the shortest possible time
the road from Bristol to Cumbcr-
land Gap. 1t will by no means be
con5onant with the great financial
ability of that gentleman, to leave
unemployed for one unnecessary
day the large amount Of money of
which he is now in possession. We
have no means at this moment Of
knowing, how soon the progress of
the corps of engineers, now in. the
field, will warrant the letting of the
road to contract, hut We are sure it
will be at an carly day, and the
Chesapeake & Ohio r. r. Compa-
nv will have cause for still al
ditional congratulation if it shall
succeed in tapping the spendid field
= Of Kentucky wealth a single day
in advance of its full grown peer
in enterprise, the A. n. & o. r.
r. Co. At all events the year 1872
viii witness an impetus to the
growth and development of our
town which, those who wish il evil,
can not in the entire future coun-
tersct. The present period in the
history of Bristol will demand OF
our people much liberal and judi-
cions action. An immediate en-
hancement of prices will be fatal to
its prosperity. We should contin-
ne to call TO our assistance good
men from all points. Until our
population shall have been thus
augmented it viii be quite posi-
bile thing for us to inaugurate a
stagnation from which Bristol may
not recover in our day.

The TYSON INJUNCTION CASE
THE DECISION OF THE COURT.
THE HOTION OF PLAINTIFF RE.
FCSED.

The injunction case of James l.. Ty-
son against the Virginia and Tonnes
see Railroad Company Was concluded
yesterday in the United States Cir
cult Court. The argument was con-
cludcd 10y Col. J. II. Baldwin, who az
peared for the complainant and de-
livered a very able aud elaborate ar
gument. after which Judge Bond rem
dered the following dccision:
DECISION OF THE COURT.
The Court has listened with great
Interest 10 the argument of counsel in
this cause, and hesitates tn express any
opinion until il has had opportunity
to exame the large number of authnri-
ties 10 which has been referred
1.-The Court here gave its reasons for
thinking the Atlantic. Mississippi aud
Ohio Railroad should be party.
Nevertheless, so great pecuniary in
tereS;s are involved i'm this suit, and
the danger of loss To one of the par
ties. nj least, If the proper persons
were made parties. would he So serious
and immediate. that ii e Court is in
clined at once 40 determine the motion
before il. without attempting To decide
any al the either questions afFe, ting
complainant : rights. which have been
elabnratrly argued. and which will be
more directly before the Court at the
final hearing of the cause.
What tho Court is now asked to DO
is To enjoin these new defendants, pro-
vitled they are made parties as they
should be. 10y a preliminary injunc-
tion from proceeding To execute any
of the powers and franchises alleged
to he granted tn them by the act of
18th June, 1870. pending the suit.
This is Ia invoke the extraordinary
power of this Court. which ought not
10 be exercised unless the jury threat
ened, the complainant he immediate,
serious. and irreparable and not then,
II the damage TO the defendants is
likely 10 be greater than that of com
plainant. and equally immediate, Sc
rious and irreparahfe.
IL seems To the Court that the COM
plaiuant has neither of these reasons
for asking the Court TO exercise this
power in his behalf.

PENDANTS respecting the stock or prop

The vote on the 7th inst, in this
county is n pretty clear indication of

registered voters failed to go to the

of The whole vote of the county, thus
showing that less than three fourths
uf the entire registered vote, was poll

were Indifferent.
The gentleman who announced him
self candidate subject to the action
of "a convention" got less than one
third f the votes pollcd in the county
showing THAT convention was
largely i'm the minority. Again the
result in Glade Spring Township is 30
unprecedented that it indicates that
the voters in that Township must
have been infSenced By considerations
entirely foreign to those that con-
iroiled. the voters in all other parts of
the county. Again, Col. Cummings
vote is no indication of the strength
of "a convention" as he was not vo-
ted for wholly bv those who favored
"a convention, but by hundreds of
Old Line Democrats all over the
county. BIT for the unusual vote in

HINTS ON BUTTER-MAKING.

A lady writing to the American Agricul-
turist, thinking that too much that is written
about buttcr-making is by "men," and not
experienced butter-makers, gives IL few hints.
For the improvement of winter butter, she
very sensibly begins with the cow, and adj
vises feeding Indian meal. She says; ''My
rule in the winter is to let the milk stand
on a table in the cellar twenty-four hours
set it on the stove till the cream wrinkles
(do not let it get too hot), then let it stand
another twenty-four hours. Use IL skim
ming ladle with holes, in order to save MS
little milk rs possible with the cream. Stir
the cream every day, and the day before
churning put the pot near the stove to allow
the cream to warm and get sour. Some
have the mistaken idea that croaT ahcTld

>

not get sour; but it makes better butter,
and more of it. Stir the cream well, as
much depends upon that. If a clear, yell
low skin forms on the cream it will make
the butter strong; it is us bad us mold, or
worse. In summer throw n handful of salt
in your cream pot when you set it; it will
keep the cream sweet longer. BE sure to
ventilate the cellar OF milk-room. 1t is n
mistake to churn sweet and sour cream to-
gether, us it makes the butter streaked. Do
not work the butter too long; it will become
oily; but have II fine cloth, squeezed out of
cold water, to take up the buttermilk
with.
