But the kind of men that are welcomed
are those who come as laboring men, ready
to aid in any and everything that will be
advantageous to the settlement where they
may locate; all such will be heartily well
coined. Each and every one thus coming
will not fail to exert an influence for good.
Well, after crossing the Alleghanles,
nothing in the vegetable line had started
from its wintry sleep.
Reaching the little village of Marathon,
Cortland county, n. Y, the 9th, situated
were then covered with old snow, which
must have laid there for months,) and
built upon both banks of little river,
Tiougeneaga by name, we found the little
stream still ice-bound, it being frozen over
in November to such thickness that Ten
nesseeans would hardly credit the truth.
At this date there is a great amount of
snow, mostly i'll drifts of different depths,
from one to ten feet, and this the last of
April. This is considered to be a very
healthy section: also very desirable por-
ton of the State on account of the large
crops of grass that are harvested here, and
consequently the great amount of butter
and cheese which is manufactured. Cat
tie have to be fed here from November un-
til some time in May.
Can any one fail to see the great advan-
| tages which East Tennessee has over this
| section, and in fact over the whole North
in dairying, grain raising and all kinds
of farming included, together with me-
chanical employment? The good features
| of Tennessee can not be too highly spoken
| of. But we will weary you.
| Your paper is read here and loaned to
others to read. Truly yours,

TIE CLIMATE OF EAST TENNESSEE AND
NEW YORK COMPARED.


MARATHON, n. Y, April 20, 1872.
EDITORS CHRONICLE Leaving Knox
Vile upon the Sd of this month by the
East Tennessee and Virginia Railroad for
Central New York, our former home, we
had an excellent opportunity OF experience
ing the marked contrast of temperature in
the two sections of country. In ROane
county, our present home, on the lst OF
April, nearly all of the sowing was done.
Although the Spring was very late, the
planting of corn had commenced. and i'll
some instances garden work was so far
completed that peas and the like were up.
Over two years had passed since we made
that section our home, and coming over
the same line of railroad that we passed
over when first entering the State, we had
the pleasure of seeing little of the i'm
Drovements that had taken place within
Two years. Old fields had been reclaimed
by fencing and tilling, and in many in
afances were being planted in corn 4: and
what we Yankees love to see, large fields
IF clover and grass already began to look
yreen. All that section of country is
making rapid and far-reaching strides.
Leaving the old ways that once We're
called good, the people Of East Tennessee
are destined to become one OF the fore
most in the land, i'll all that goes to make
the people of State, or section OF State
great. Noted as a liberty-lovlng people,
they can not fail to rise. Still we are
aware that there have been sad misrepre-
sentations of our State, commonly, too, by
persons from the North who have been
among US such ones as chose EastTennessee
for their future home; but, in every in
stance, their dissatisfaction can be traced
to theirOwn imprudence and want of judg-
ment.

OUR own newspapers, says 1ppSet0n's
J0H,H0i, enterprising and inventive as
they are, do not inform us of all the sur
prising things that happen in this coun-
try, as, for example, witness the follow.
ing from the Paris Figaro:
cit is known that the road from San
Francisco to New York passes through
the reservations Of several tribes Of In,
dams, who invariably regard the locomo-
tives as terrible monsters created by the
Manitou to eXterminate the red man.
Several times already the Indians have
attempted to throw the trains off the
track In these enterprises they were
led by one Of the tierCest of their chiefs,
a Cherokee named Naha, and surnamed
the Mocking, Bird All their attempts hav,
ing failed, Naha resolved to change his tao
tics, Accordingly, on the 81 Of June
last, he concealed himself near the rails,
and, with extraordinary activity, bounded
upon the foOtbOard of the train No. 81,
from San Francisco 10 New York He
then slipped along the train until he
reached the locomotive, where he killed
the fireman with blow Of his tomahawk,
stabbed the engineer with his knife, and,
after scalping them, jumped on the ten
der, brandishing the scalps, and
bowling ont a savage war-song. The
settlers along the line became terrified as
they saw the train, which now dashed
along at a fearful speed, driven by the
ferociOus engineer. The passengers all
sried out for help. Their situation was
extremely pcrious--in fact, they were
running into the jaws Of death, Finally,
an officer Of the navy, Henry Pierce, de.
termined to sacrifice himself to save his
fcllowpassengers, Armed with a long
dirk knife, he ran along the foot.board OF
the train and jumped upon the engine.
The chief uttered war-cry and bran.
dished his tomahawk, and a hand to-
hand struggle was commenced over the
bodies of the engineer and fireman The
passengers put their heads out Of the
windows, and, with an anxiety which
may easily bc imagined, tried to see the
fight. In about minute Mr.. Pierce fell
mortally wounded under Mocking Bird
who, in the twinkling Of an eye, scalped
him. But, while he was triumphantly
waving the scalp of his victim in the air
