Live stock Market.



The market for beef cattle has not been as ac-
tive the past week as for some time previous
The scarcity of money and other causes have
combined to produce noticeable dullness in the
sale of meat in our city market, in consequence
of which but few cattle have been offered and
they of very ordinary quality. We hope,
however, that the incoming week will bring
with it renewed activity. The Southern markets
will shortly be open for our cattle, and then our
farmers may hope for an advance in prices
QUoTATIoNs.-Al fat cattle, DC. good beef
cattle, Bic; ordinary cattle, &c,
HOGS.
The demand for hogs continues good at quo
tatious. Several car loads have already been
shipped to Southern markets, and we hear of
other lots to follow soon. As soon as the wealth
er permits our pork packers will commence
operations, and then our farmers will find a
market for their hogs at home. The enterprising
firm of Mcdaniel & Co., have made preparations
to pack large number of hogs this year, and as
their establishment contributes largely to the
growth of our city, we wish them abundant
success.

The scarcity of hay in our market is felt ma
terially. The demand far exceeds the amount
coming in and we fear our city stock will suffer

=, We took occasion to drop into the office of
Messrs, Munson x Bailey, Real Estate and In
sgranee Agents, who are we'll known to the peo-
PIE OF East Tennessee. Their former office in
the North half of the Exchange and Deposit
Bank Building has attracted the attention of the
public generally. They have now removed to
the second story of the building, Immediately
over their former office, and propose to make
thelr new quarters quite as attractive, if not
more so than their former ones The rooms
nave been newly fitted up, something similar
to those previously occupied, with walnut and
ash partitions about eight feet high, making
three rooms
The first room is now being arranged with
cases for the Real Estate and Insurance papers
all made to order for the special purpose de.
signed, and desks also suited to special uses
in their business.
The middle room will be occupied by Can't
.. u. Nanderhoof rs Engineer $, Surveyor and
Drafting office, and the back room by G. w.
Fouehe, Esq, as q U. S. Claim Office, having
in charge the claims of some eight former firms,
comprising the larger portion of all the claim
business now unsettled in East Tennessee.
In this connection we take pleasure to note
the fact that Messrs. Munson & Baily have Sc
cured tho services of 7. II. Corkill Esq, Pro-
tessor of Pennmanship, whose fine specimens of
work have been seen by most of our citizons.
This will DO sufficient guarantee of tho man
ner in which the Office work of the
Real Estate and Insurance business will be con-
Quoted. Mr.. Arkill, however, will continue his
After u thorough examinations, we can conf
IDENTIFY say that the facilities this firm now pos
sess, with complete organization in all the de-
partments of their business, arc unequalled by
any firm in the State. The four Fire Insurance
Companies they represent are well known for
their conservativeness and soundness, and are
in all respects second to none now doing bus-
ness.
The organization oftheEa Tennessee Branch
of the Republic Life Insurance Company speaks
for itself. The gentlemen comprising this Branch
are too well known to admit of doubt in re-
gard to its good standing and soundness.
The energy of this firm in the prosecution of
the Real Estate Business and the large OUTLAY
and extensive advertising of these gentlemen is
well known to our people. The many obstacles
they have so energeticaly encountered and
overcome will guarantee them final grand sue
cess, although the great benefits to be deriv-
ed by our section of the South can not be fully
appreciated or realized at present, but the fu-
ture will show what energJ and 7ciU can do
when properly directed.
In connection with this department of their
business is the Agency of the Allen Line of
Ocean Steamers, running direct to Norfolk, Va
bringing immigrants direct to the South with
out encountering the former obstacles and COM
petition thrown around them by landing at New
York, besides the greately reduced rates of
passage, making this line most desirable one
Taking it all in all, we can safely recommend
this firm to all having any business in their line

sERENADE OF SENATOR BROwNLOw.
He Makes disappearance: and is Loudly
Cheered.

At the conclusion of the meeting on Market
Square, the band, and good portion of the
crowd, repaired to the residence of the hero of
many a political battle, to do honor to their old
standard bearer and former Governor. After
some excellent music by the band, Senator
Brownlow made his appearance and acknowl-
edged his appreciation Of the honor conferred
by bow, after which he received three hearty
cheers. Some more splendid music was fur
nishcd, and then loud calls brought forth
COL JOHN b. BRowNLow,
Who addressed the audience in speech suited
to the OCCASION plain and practicable. He
had met Democracy in, open field
and the victory was won. The Republicans
had elected their ticket in the State all but the
Governor, and they could have elected him if
they had but tried. He spoke of the bright
prospects of the State and the glorious future
that awaits her. His speech was well received
and ELECTED loud applause at divers times.
After some more music, he was followed by
COL. A. :. PRossER,
who had also been loudly called for. He made
an excellent address, congratulating the Re-
publican party on the splendid victory won, q
victory but little expected this day one week
ago. His remarks were well-timed and were
received with loud applause
MR.. DAVID RICHARDS,
being present, was forced to make his appear
ance by the continued calls of the crowd He
stated that he felt rather curious, being for
eigner and only four years among this people
here, to be elected to represent them in the
State Senate. He received the office without
asking for it, and without giving ono single
drop of whisky towards getting it, and never
will, and now being elected he was determined
to do the people all the good he knew how He
was loudly cheered at the conclusion of his re-
marks. The band then played their farewell
piece and left, but the crowd were determined
to hear
ESQUIRE YARDLEY,
before retiring to their homes, and continued to
call for him until he made his appearance. He
addressed them a in very few, but clear and foro>
ible remarks, and closed the meeting by three
cheers for President Grant and the Republican
party.

Triumphant for.Twenty Years,

More than twenty years ago the Mustang
Liniment made its debut in the West. It's cures
of the various external diseases of horses and
and cattle, astonished the planters and farmers
of the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys, and de-
mand for it sprung up which nocessitated its
manufacture on an extensive scale. Soon the
discovery was made that it was grand specific
for rheumatism, govt neuralgia, earache, tooth
ache, and other external ailments of mankind.
Then it was tried as a healing, pain killing APP
plication, in cases of outward injury, such as
cuts bruises, burns, spasms, &C., and was found
equally serviceable The fame of the new rem
edy for some of the most painful ills that atflct
mankind and the lower animals, spread rapidly,
and Mustang Liniment soon took rank in every
State and Territory of the Union as a standard
cure.
