Gen. QuarIes at TrentOn-New Rail-
road Project.
To the Editor Of the Union and American:
TRENTON, Tenn, Oct. s, 1S72.-
Gen. VIM. "A. Quarles, elector for the
State at large, on the Greeley and Brown
ticket, has just closed one of the most pow
erful and effective speeches, perhaps, ever
made in Gibson county. After fit and suf-
ficient support of our national ticket, he
turned to a struggle that is coatined to
Tennessee; we refer to the fight between
Gen. Cheatham and Mr.. johnson. The
General entirely dug up the ground on the
question of conventions, and showed exact
" the relation that Mr.. johnson had borne
to the same in the past, and his present at
titude. He wrote in blazing letters the
word organization on every party ensign.
His arguments and illustrations were
unanswerable. His was speech, likewise,
in which there was the oil of Cancellation.
He did not drive off the half dozen
or whatever The number was, of johnson
men. Sometimes the listeners laughed and
even wildly shouted. Then their eyes were
moistened when he approached, in his dis
cussion, mercy, mercy; that brightest enti-
ty in the circle Of virtues that make up high
and noble character; as, also, when he re-
ferred in manly objection to throwing
shame, and the odium of the traitor, as
Mr.. johnson seeks to reopen the dead
past to do, upon our countless hosts OF
comrades who were swept down by the
rude blasts Of war that shook a continent.
Our neighbor to the left, literally drew
his handkerchief at one time. -.....
All is well here for Greeley, Brown and
Cheatham.
Before closing we wish to mention
one other item OF iterest TO Trenton, as well
as Nashville. We refer to the building OF
a railroad from Huntingdon to iutersect the
Mobile and Ohio railroad here, the Mem
phis and Paducah road at or near Ripley,
and thence to the Mississippi river at Full

Of feeling along the line stated
On last Saturday live and

for the purpose of taking more definite &C.

SUNDAY TRAVELLING.

To the Editor of the Union and American:
The accident which happened on the
10Th ult., on the railroad below Decatur,
has peculiar significance, On that day,
which was the Sabbath, the new road was
first opened for travel. On the same day it
was the scene of disaster and death. 1t
may be regarded as supertitious to think,
that there may have been connection be-
tween this misfortune and the dissertation
of the Sabbath with which it is associated.
But even the secular press may be
allowed to suggest that the country in
which We live is nominally christian;
that there is no obligation more gener-
ally recognized as being part of our ma.
tional faith, than the duty Of observing the
Sabbath. And that unless chris tianity is a
delusion, the laws imposed on man for the
advantage of the individual and of socie-
ty, cannot be violated with impunity.
The n. and d. r. r. has been a pleas
ant route OF travel beyond any known to
the writer, who has had good deal of ex-
perience in such matters, because of the
kind and gentlemanly department of its
conductors, officers and officials of all de.
grees. The respect shown to ministers has
been unvarying. The observance Of the
the Sabbath, unusual; and the exemp-
ton from accident, considering the former
condition of things, exceptional. Since its
late change of directory it has added to all
its former attractions a style of accommo-
dstion which is luxurious. The traveller
is whirled along at the rate of thirty miles
an hour in the new cars, with little more
jarring and jolting than he would expert
ence in rockingham. 1t seems
under the energetic and wealthy manage
ment it now enjoys, to be destined
to be one of the great
lines of Continental travel. An outsider.
who at once feels gratitude for past kind.
ness, and recognizes how vast and compli.
Gated are the affairs of long line of road,
would respectfully suggest that thereligious
public would be delighted if the business
on Sabbath could be confined to its former
limits. 1t is not asserted that railroad Sab
bath travelling is essentially sinful. But to
the extent it Is not absolutely compulsory,
it is certain that it is demoralizing to the
community, and especially injurious to the
employees: and no pecuniary advantages can
compensate for the evil effects which are
sure to result. WIS.

GUESTS OF THE HEART.

Soft falls through the gathering twilight
The rain from the dripping caves,
And stirs with tremuleus rustic
The dead and dying leaves;
While afar, in the midst of the shadows,
hear the sweet voices of bells
Come borne on the wind of the autumn,
That htfully rises and swells.
They call and they answer each other
They answer and mingle again
AS the deep and the shrill in an anthem
Make harmony still in their strain
As the voices of sentinels mingle
In the mountainous regions of snow,
TIL from hilltop TO hilltop a chorus
Floats down to the valleys below.
The shadows, the fire-Hghts of even
The sound Of the rains distant chime,
Come bringing, with rain softly dropping,
Sweet thoughts of shadowy time;
The slumberous sense of seclusion,
From storm and intruders aloof,
We feel when we hear in the midnight
The patter of rain on the roof.
When the spirit goes forth in its yearnings
To take all its wanderers home,
Or, afsr in the regions of fancy,
Delights on swift piniOns to roam,
quietly sit by the fire-light-
The fire-light so bright and so warm;
For know that those only who love me
VIII seek me through shadow and storm.
But should they be absent this evening,
Should even the household depart
Deserted, L should not be lonely,
There still would be guests in my heart
The faces OF friends shat cherish,
The smile, and the glance, and tee tone,
Will haunt me wherever wander,
And thus l am never alone.
With those who have left far behind them
The Joys and the SORROWS Of time
Who sing the sweet songs of the angels
In a purer and holier cline
Then darkly, o evening OF autumn,
Your rain and your shadows may fall;
Nv loved and my lost ones you bring me-
My heart holdsa feast with them all

WOOL IN COLORADO.

The Rocky Mo1ntaiR Netcs says: This
season the prospects of wool raising are
more enlivened and on more subs antial
basis than in any previous year. The old
Mexican varieties are being weeded out and
In their places better breed of sheep is be-
ing introduced. The wool-growers have
found it worthy, of their attention to con-
slider rather the quality of the fleece than
the number CT pounds produced. Hereto
fore wOol-growing has been carried on in a
rather loose, desultory way, pasturing herds
Of sheep that bore quality of fleece not
much removed from common hair, and
subject at any time to be swept away by
floods. draughts or disease, as they were
allowed to range over unbounded tracts of
country. Now, however, owing to the in
creased population that has poured into the
country during the last few years, and
which has come from the older states with
advanced views of farming, sheepraising is
conducted on more scientific principles
every year. Sheep raisers In Colorado
have of late been importing large numbers
of superior class of sheep from the states;
and this matter Of fine stock has become a
subject of considerable pride amongst the
wool growers of the territory. The export
Of fine wool is increasing yearly, and Colo
RADIO in short time may expect to drive
out OF the market the woods of the other
portions ofthe United States.

Correspondence Of the Union and American.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. S0.-Here am
in the Quaker City, but have been consid-
erably disappointed in rambling about the
streets to meet with 50 few outward evi-
dences of the existence here of that sturdy
religious sect from which the city takes its
soubriquet. In two days strolling about
the streets hsve met with but one lady
and not single gentleman who bore the
outward appearance Of being Quaker. 1t
is said that many of the young Quakers,
and some of the older ones, have ignored
the sombre colors and peculiar cut of the
dress of their fathers and mothers. Still
Philadelphia is impressed with the steady
habits and sterling integrity Of that people.
SIZE AND GROWTH OF PHILADELPHIA.
I 1.-THE visitor to Philadelphia has but little
conception of the territory it covers until he
traverses it from the northern to the south
ern and from the eastern to the western
limits. A paper by Thomas Cochrane,
ESQ.,, one of the city's officials, puts the ter
ritory within the corporate limits Of Phila-
delphia at S2,700 acres, surface $3.50
acres more than the area Of London. The
built-up surface of the city covers over
twenty square miles, and the number Of
buildings of all descriptions at the beginning
of the present yeu (18T2) was 129,411, Of
which lumber 1877 were dwelling hou-
ses. The number of dwelling houses emu
merated in the United States census of 1870
was IL, 457, which gave an average popu-
lation of 500 to each house. The average
population to dwelling house, according
to the census of 1850, was 6.28, and the
census of 1850, 6.67. No return Of houses
was made in the census taken IN 1910,
1880, and 1920, but in eight enumerations
made prior to the year last named and since
1853, in none did the average population
exceed $50. These figures, in themselves,
furnish abundant evidence that the location
of the city, and the facilities for building,
has enabled the population to be comfort
ably housed In separate tenements for fami-
lies from its infancy, and that at the pre-
sent time the proportion of the residents to
house is less than at any former period.
How much better s'homen accommoda-
tions Philadelphia has than New York, can
be seen by a comparison of the official re-
turn In the census Of 1870 for that city:

The noblest of that God-like band,

Who drew the sword for native land,
Has passed the shadowy glen.
He is not dead, but gone before,
Our Chevalier Bayardi
His soul TO Heaven the angels bore
To mete him his reward.
He fell asleep in happy dreams,
Virginia's nOblest son,
While basking in the hallowed CLEANS
Of glorious Washington.
And in that light above the storms
Are seen beside him still
His warrior chiefs, tn immortal forms
OF jackson and of Hill.
His mortal form may pass to dust,
But his undying name
viii mount the temple of the Just,
The brightest star OF fame;
For since in prayer at Calvary's cross,
Our Lady bent the knee,
Earth has not felt such grievous loss
AS that Of Robert Leei
1t was not his Bozzaris' fate,
Who fell in war for Greece;
Our glorious chief, the truly great,
Sleeps in the arms of Peace,
No plaintive dirge of cannon's mouth
Was fired above his sod,
A NiObe, the weeping South,
Returned him TO her God !

STEAM ON CANALs.-The use of steam
power on the Albemarle and Chesapeake
canal is great success. More than thirty
five thousand steam vessels have passed
through the canal. A canal of this charac-
ter, connecting the Tennessee with the nav
igable rivers of Georgia and Alabama, viii
confer incalculable benefits on this State
and others, and its construction is only a
question of time.
Steam power moves freight on a good
canal for less than half the cost on a good
railway. The immense business of the
Erie canal supports, directly and indirectly,
three or four great railways through the
5. ate of New York.
