and Consumption
Probably never before in the whole history Of
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
series of years, and among most Of the races 0f
men 1t has risen higher and higher in their estma-
ton, as it has become hetter known It, uniform
character and power To cure the various affections
Of the lungs and throat, have made il known as r9
liable protector against them. While adapted TO
mllder forms Of disease and to young children, it Is
at the same time the most effectual remedy that can
be gwen for lnClplent cons sumption, and the dam
gerouS affections of the throat and lungs. As q pro.
vision against sudden attacks of Group. it should
be kept on hand in every family and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, al
should he provided with this antidOte for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curablc, still great numbers of cases where the dis.
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health nv the
Cherry PcctOrGI. SO complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat that
the most obstinate Of them yield To it. When moth.
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
torGt they subside and disappear
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro-
lection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
bronchitis is generally cured by taking tho
Cherry PPctOrdI in small and frequent doses.
so generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, do
than assure the public that its qualities are fully
maintained.

Union CITY EXPRESS Robbery.

Since the OCcuTrence,a few weeks since at
Union City, Of the express car robbery, Mr..
Morley and his detectives have been indus
triOusly working up the case, and have f.
nally succeeded in discovering who were
the thieves. The Union City Courier says
their names are Henry Clark, Edward Rus
sell and William Barton, and there is no
doubt but that they are the parties who
committed the express robbery at Moscow.
They were traced to Luster's landing on the
Mississippi river, shout fifteen miles below
Hickman, where they have been making
headquarters for some time. Their Osten-
sible occupation was keeping grocery at a
point where perhaps they would not sell
enough in a month to pay their board a
day. Hearing they were suspected, they
took to the canebrake. Escaping from their
hiding, Clark went to Missouri, where he
was arrested and escaped. Clark and Rus
sell are brothers, going under assumed
names; their real names being Harrington.
Their mether has recently started to move
to Texas, and it is understood that the
three thieves are to meet her at some point
along the route of her travel and accompany
her. There is no doubt but that the thieves
will soon be captured, and justice admins
tered TO them. One thousand dollars re-
ward is offered for them, dead or alive. The
Fauingtons are from Dickson county, and
Barton from Texas, but more recently
brakeman on the Nashville and Northwest
ern Railroad. The arrest of the men at
Somerville is another case of mistaken iden-
tity.

Rev. Two Schacht.

The Lebanon (Ky.) Standard of the
18th mentions that ''Rev. Two Schacht, of
Greensboro, passed down the road last Fri
day, on his way home from the dedication
of the new church at Danville." 1t may
interest many of our older citizens to know
how this reverend gentleman has been Occu-
pied during the past dozen years, since he
left us. The outbreak Of the war found
him pastor Of Lawrence, Kansas, but his
outspoken Southern prOclivities soon made
that border town toe hot for him, and i'll
1862 he attached himself to the diocese of
Louisville, locating at Owensboro, Ky.
While there he is loosely accused of hav-
ing raised a Rebel company in his
congregation, and sending them South
through the lines. Subsequently he was
transferred to Lebanon, KY, where he re-
manned till 1868, having general supervision
Of Southeastern Kentucky. He started
and completed in that region about dozen
Catholic churches-amOng them the Dan
vile church just dedicated, which is pro-
nounced an ornament TO that Presbyterian
town. In 1868 he was removed to Padu-
cab, where in the course of twelve months
he built a $4,000 church. Last year he
returned to Greensboro, where he still re-
mains. In these various fields of labor
his energy and kindly spirit has everywhere
commanded the admiration and esteem that
Nashville lavished on him twenty years
ago. And we have heard many Kentucky
Catholics speak of him with a warmth that
would make his old Nashville flock jealous.

How Do They All Live?


One of the editors of the Charleston
Courier, who frequently visits New York
in the interest of his establishment, has
been heard to frequently ask the question,
''How do they all live?" Every visit made
him think more and more of the problem,
and finally by inquiry and investigation, that
editor has been able to answer the question
in satisfactory manner. Our merchants
and business men generally would greatly
enjoy the lengthy articles he has penned on
the subject. Here is an extract which we
commend to their careful perIsal:
You walk down Broadway, for instance,
and see signs breaking out in measly form
from almost every building. 1t is like an
eruption of alphabetical deformities. Enter
any one of the places thus signifed, and
you will find custom in full blast. Every
establishment, every counting room, every
trade has its relationships. From Stewart
and Cla1in dOwnwards, to the humble oc-
cupants of mere desk room, you will find
that they all have something to do-and
that Something" ramifying here and there,
to the grocer the dry goods merchant, the
coal yard, the butcher, the theatre and in a
hundred other channels distributes the re-
suits which, counted in mighty aggregate,
make millions. The problem resolves itself
simply. Somehow and Somewhere-these
people must be known. Acquaintance
Ship and local popularity disposes Of one
class who may be embraced under
the generic phrase-''the professions" For
success these depend on social power, and
the ordinary levers which move the social
circle. But there are thousands who are
beyond this sphere-who rely on influences
that ale employed among men and comlnIi-
mites whom they never see, and only know
by the simple mark of "S- and -cts.,"
which represent the substratum of their
b ISneSs.
How do these attain success among
myriad of competitors, achieve notoriety,
and eventually leap into the possession Of
the brown stone mansions up town, and Of
the rural palaces of the suburbs? The
answer is in two wOrds-'tBY ADvERTIs-
Incl"
Mere accidental circumstances rarely COM
bine in rearing great commercial struc-
ture. While it is a very commendab'e Illus
tration of perseverance, simply holding a
chair down and patiently waiting for Gus
tom, never yet made fortune. The world
is like great farm. The soil must be well
fertilized before the seed planted can pro-
duce much fruit. Live business men I'M
derstand this fact, and hence every one of
present note in the city of New York or
out of it has ploughed deep and is garner
ing his crop of wealth. Printers ink is
their commercial phosphate,

The Central Market.

The work of fitting up the Central Mar
ket is progressing rapidly, and the proprie-
tors, Messrs. Conley, Caps & Co., expect
to open their palatial establishment to the
public on or about the 1st of December.
All the appointments of the new market
promise to be frst-class, and the opening
day is looked forward to with much interest.
The walls are to be handsomely painted,
the floors furnished, the stalls constructed
with elegance, and cleanliness, neatness,
and comfort wiz be the order of the estab-
hshment. The rear end of the building is
to be devoted to fish market which will
have an entrance from the main room, and
also front entrance from Church street.
The principal walls in the upper story have
been torn down, to give place to the fitting
up Of an elegant market hall for the dis
play of flowers and plants, jellies, preserves,
sweet-meats, pickles, ETC., etc. This hall
will be reached by grand stairway from
the pavement on Cherry street. There is
also to be bakery and confectionery estab-
lished in the building, a restaurant in anoth-
er part of the house, and all the arrange
ments are complete to make it not only at
tractiye, but place where everything in
the way of eatableS can be obtained.

NASHVILLE Opera House.

Last night there " as large attendance
at the Theatre to witness East Lynne, the
cast of which was quite appropriate, as the
excellent rendition of the piece attested. G.
Harry Franck, as Sir Francis Levison, acted
better, and made more favorable opinion
of himself, than on any previous evening as
CagliaStro. He is the exact model of ''you
are a little too familiar on short acquaint-
ance," and eXemplifies the sneering aristo-
crat when he tells the officer to be careful
in placing the handouts on, so as not to
soil his sleeves. Mrs. Grey, both as Lady
Isabel Vane and Madam Vine, appeared to
unusual advantage, and in more than one
scene enthused the audience with
the sympathy of once honored
wife, who could exclaim, o. / am
jealous, am mad, am miserable" 81 care
not who is the instrument of my revenge. ="
Grey did well and sustained himselfthrough-
out the many varied scenes. Mrs. David
sou was as natural and easy as ever in the
character of Barbara Hare, while the comic
antiquity Of Mr.. DavidSOn's oddity created
much laughter. Altogether the entertain
ment was satisfactory and much better than
at any time last week. Tonight will be
presented Rug Bias, or The Noble and the
Ldckey, of Victor Hugo, which is one of the
most brilliant and interesting oftragic plays,
Last night being the complimentary benefit
rendered to Mr.. and Mrs. Grey by the Leg
islature, witnessed a number of that body
persent, and of course an unusual number
of the fair sex.
