The Cincinnati Bill in Kentucky.

The Governor has still the Cincinnati
Southern Railroad bill under considera-
ton. He has until Thursday of the COM
ing week to decide. 1t was expected by
many that the Legislature would hear
from him to-day, but there had been no
communication at the time of adjourn
ment. 1t is now beginning to be believed
that the Governor will not either approve
or dsapprove the bill, but hold it until the
constitutional ten day IS have expired, when
it becomes a law without his signature. 1t
is known that he is in doubt us to the con-
stitutionality of certain of its provisions,
and is taking the best uninterested legal
advice he can procure on this subject.
Should he come to the conclusion that il
is unconstitutional, he will undoubtedly
veto it, and, it is believed, be glad of the
opportunity. -COuricr-JOuTnGI, FEB. 11H

THE UNIVERSITY

MEssRo. EDITORS: The spirit manifest
ed by your two correspondents, rs. n. u
and Reform" in reference to the Uni
versity at this place, is certainly of the
right kind, and much that they have said
will no doubt be generally approved. Both
are for making the institution comprehen-
sive in the field of its operations and infiu-
ence, and while one is especially disposed
to attract to it the youth of the South, the
other would bring under its instructions
those of the North. This is very well.
No one can reasonably object to either re-
suit The truth Is, as | am credibly in
formed, that even now young men from
Georgia and young men from Ohio are in
the College halls, and tremendously pur-
suing their studies together. And al
though there are, in each case, but few in
number, the fact is an index Of the future,
and shows what the University may do
hereafter, in the directions pointed out by
YOUR correspondents, if it is conducted in
broad national spirit.
At the same time, it seems to ME that
the chief aim of the institution should
be to educate the youth of Tennessee,
and that the Trustees will find the
task of providing ample accommodations
| in every respect for the hundreds OF
young men and boys from within the linz
| its of our own State, who before another

doors. will call all their energies and
means into requsition. What will Knox
vile do?
And, in this connection, should like
to know whether the city and people OF
Knoxville propose to render any substan-
rial aid TO this important educational en-
| terprise? The Nation and the State have
brought a very considerable College fund
and as it were, laid it at the very doors OF
this city. The Trustees of the University
have contributed the use of their grounds
buildings and money for the College thus
endowed. But their means are limited
They need pecuniary help, that they may
put up additional buildings. 1t is under
stood that the Agricultural College fund
cannot lawfully be used for that purpose
Is KNOXVILLE willing to fold its hands and
DO nothing in this emergency? Some
thing has been said of SIS, 900 having been
appropriated to the University by the city
before the Legislature located the new
College here, and of that appropriation
having been communicated to the Legis
lature as part of the assets of the Univer
sity and as one of several inducements t.
that location. Is this so? If it is so, d.

NECIlS AND ARMs.-One ofthe Eastern
papers, speaking of the necks which are SO
favishingly exhibited by the tOiletters OF
the day, says scragy necks are the fashion,
and where ladies have no hollows, and
creases and bones, they employ artists to
paint them, and that a person would be
astonished were he or She to have a view
next morning of the necks which had APP
peared so old and yellow and wrinkled the
night before, to see how plump and white
they were. Another tells story of gen.
tleman who had a lady OH his arm who
wore very handsome, wide bracelets, and
who was remarkable for the beauty of her
arms. The lady's bracelet became un-
clasped, and while she was herself fasten-
ing (which she insisted on doing-he
observed peculiar movement in her flesh
from the wrist to the elbow. The move
ment continued all the while the lady was
working with her bracelet, but ceased
when she removed her hand. He con-
cluded from what lie saw that there were
such things us arms parts of which were

WHY BROKERS? Eli Perkins re-

said Mr.. Drew.
What becomes of the other two?'
They get robbed, waylaid or bust a

"Then the reason why they are called
brokers is because they break up every
body, and finally break up themselves ~
asked my uncle.
THAT is evidently the reason,'' said Mr..
Drew, scratching his head.

- Old John Burns" Of Gettysburg Penn,
died at his home, February Z, of pneumonia
According to Bret Hart;
HE was the fellow who won reuown,-
The only man who didn't back down
When the rebels rode through his native town ;
But held his own in the fight next day,
When all his townsfolk ran away.
That was in July, sixty-three.
The very day that General Lee,
Flower of Southern chivalry,
Baffed and beaten, backward reeled
From stubborn Mead and barren field.
He wore an ancient long buff vest,
Yellow as saffron-but his best;
And buttoned over his manly breaat
Was bright blue coat, with rolling collar,
And large guilt buttons-size of a dollar
With tails that the country folks called swal-
ler.'
lie wore broad brimmed, bell-crowned hat,
White as the locks on which it sat.
The soldiers jokcd him about his appearance,
saying
How are you, White Hat? Put her
through
Your heads level and Bully for you'll
Called him Daddy begged he'd disclose
The name of the tailor who made his clothes,
And what was the value he set on those;
While Burns, unmindful of cheer and SCOT,
Stood there picking the rebels Off
With his long brown rifle and his bell-crCwn
hat,
And the swallow-tailS they were laughing at
"'Twas but moment. for that respect
Which clothes all courage their voices checked;
And something the widest could understand
Spake in the old mans strong right hand"
After the battle,
" John Burns--a practical man
Shouldered his rifle, unbent his brOws,
And then went back to his bees and cows
