Mr.. Hitch, of Blount. The total receipts for
the week was 101 head, at an aggregate gross
weight of 1850 lbs. Of the receipts, five car
loads were shipped to other markets-three by
Mr.. JOS FAM and two by Messrs. FAM Il
Jones Two car loads are ready for shipment
tomorrow. There are many fat cattle through
the country yet, and as the demand continues
good, we look for a brisk trade for the next few

sKETCH AND DEsCRIPTION

He gave his name in the latter place as James
Milton Smith, which was assumed to avoid de-
lection, and has married since his location IN
Bluunt county, about eight months ngo, and
has been for some months employed at the saw
mill of Willard and DeArmond, situated about
three miles from Maryville, who, of course,
were ignorant of his previous character.
Some time ago two men came to Anderson
county, looking for Coppage, and received the
services of Sheriff Robins to assist them in Sc
curing the murderer, but, although they got on
hot trail and traced him to the saw mill where
he was at work, yet he was shrewd and quick
enough to make his escape, leaving his team
standing hitched in the yard.
Coppage alias Smith is twenty-seven or eight
wears of age, with dark hair, hazel eyes and SAN
dy whiskers, active and quick spoken and wears
an almost perpetual smile: He has an aversion
to looking any one squarely in the face, and his
ewes are as restlessas those of a Gagged hyena,
with all their wildness, though lacking some OF
their ferocity.

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR FOSTER. Judge
Barrett. Of the Supreme Court, yesterday
granted the motion for stay of proceedings
IN the case Of William Foster, convicted of
the murder OF Avery D. Putnam. The fnnda-
mental reason for granting the stay, as will be
seen BY the opinion published In another
column, is that there is reasonable ground for
doubling the correctness Of the decision of the
Supreme Court, General Term, affirming the
conviction Of murder in the first degree In the
Court of Oyer and Terminer. The General
Term resentenced him to be hung on the 22d
Inst. He has now twice temporarily escaped
the gallows. The final adjudication remains
with the Court Of Appeals, before which
tribunal of ultimate resort the case Is at once
to be carried.

TEE VIRGINIA TOBACCO INTERESTS. Some
time since we called attention to the fact thai
thousands of colored tobacco operatives In
Virginia and the adjoining States had been
rendered almost destitute by the great delay
on the part of the Committee of Ways and
Means at Washington in fixing uniform rate
FOR the tobacco tax. Yesterday mass meet
ing was held at Richmond, and resolutions
were passed urging the necessity of prompt
action In the matter, and limiting that what
might be play to the gentlemen on the commit
Tee was death, in the pecuniary sense, to the
operators. While they are grateful to the
nand that shields them from the violence of
.aelr fellow men, they memorialize the Execu-
ave ana pray that all due influence be EN-.
p'oysd " break the present deadlock.

The RICHMOND PosTMIsTREss. The head
Of the Richmond Post Office, Miss Van Lew,
does not seem to be able to organize the
sterner portion Of humanity so as to insure
despatch and efficiency In the department over
which she prcsides. Yesterday the Virginia
merchants did not receive their letters, and,
as matter of course, they wanted to know
why. Miss Lew had to explain. The fact
was she had endeavored to induce the chief
clerk to undertake more work than he could
well perform, aud on his refusal to obey
orders his mistress discharged him. There
upon his fellow clerks and the carriers held an
Indignation meeting, deprecating female rule,
and were positively sufficiently ungratefnl
10 their fair taskmistress to tell her that If she
d'o not reinstate the chief clerk she might
have g.! the business herself. They struck
for principle.
