policies of "buiIdingup," she will continue
to progress in the same direction. ToMa-

But with all his zeal he is unwilling to

through one line of road and
that road to be manged and controlled
by him. The idea that two roads, one
through North Carolina and another via
Lynchburg, controlled by rival interests
would do quite as much to "build up'' Nor
folk as one would controlled by himself,is,
to his mind fallacious. Hence his kindly
effort to rescue ms from the grasp of Will

session of our line of road and force all of
East Tennessee, whether they would or
not, to trade with Norfolk, and to do this
over his line of road. How the thing
might work in the future we do not know.
But we do know that while he has been
considerably "bulIt up' himself, Norfolk,

New York has huge sensation in the

been much distressed for some days and
greatly prostrated, but when last heard from

From the Nashville Union and Americana
The lady members of the First Baptist
Church in this city have agreed that they
will dispense with all finery on Sunday
wearing no jewels but consistency, and
hereafter appear at church in plain calico
move, and the ladies of the First Baptist
Church are entitled to great credit for be-
ing the first in our city to lead off in this
much-needed reform. This is matter
which has attracted considerable atten-
ton of late, and in many cities prominent
ladies are taking the same sensible view of
the question of dress as that held by the
Nashville ladies referred to, who, in carry
ing into effect this good resolution, will re-
ceive the hearty support and Endorsement
OF all whose good opinion is worth any

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
The Mary Houston had sixty passeng gers,
but little freight She will probably lay
up at Louisville for the balance of the
season. The little steamer Judge Baker,
which has been on the docks for few
weeks was let in the river Thursday
evening, and departed for Caseyville yes
terday morning. The Wild Cat had a
couple Of barges, loaded with pipe, from
Gaylords foundry, and takes them to
Memphis. Tho Pink Varble takes load
of oil cake from Memphis to New Orleans
next week The Jim Fisk, Jr., resumes
her trips about the first Of next week. She
is having her repairs done at Paducah.
1t will be remembered that mum Der
of years ago the Captain of the steamer
Mosalla made the remark rs his steamer
was leaving Cincinnati that he would be
at certain hour at q given point or bio,c
his boat 70 h-A, and but a few moment:
afterward her boilers exploded, killing q
large number of her passengers. We
heard that the above remark was made BY
the Captain Of one Of the packets which
left here Thursday evening. If it is true
it is certainly very poor assertion for q
Captain of a steamboat to make for acct
dents are liable TO occur at any moment
There is no reason in the world to believe
that if such remark was made that tn,
Captain was sinere in what he said ant
would be the last one to endanger tn.
lives Of his passengers. Still the assertion
was careless one.
The Minncola is still in port discharg
ing her 600 ton Cargo. The Julia brough
