Distressing Accident.

We are panied to announce that Nell Har-
den, one of our oldest citizens, met with an ac-
cident last Saturday which will likely prove
fatal. As we learn, he was sitting on some
feather-edged plank, holding them under the
saw of the saw-mill, in order to have the edges
squared, when the saw, in its upward move,
raised the plank suddenly on which he was sit
ting and threw him backward. He fell some
ten or twelve feet below on some solid timber
with his left shoulder and side, bruisng his
head, crushing his shoulder, breaking several
of his ribs and forcing them into his left lung
His sufferings are intense. DIR. Taylor sue
ceeded in extricating the ends of the broken
ribs from the lung of the unfortunate man.
The air inhaled into the torn lung passes through
it and settles next the skin of the wounded

"CouIdn't Take Keer Of Himself.

Yesterday about one clock, while the train
was waiting until the passengers had obtained
dinner, an elderly female of angular build might
have been seen rushing fantically throu gh the
crowd with a short pipe in her mouth and car
rying an old spliRt-bottom chair on which was a
coat that belonged to some young man from
the country" whom the old lady was endeav-
oring to find. being under impression that he WIS
not exactly qualified for the trip he was under
taking. Her importunate inquiries at length
induced the youth to look out of the car, where
he had been pacidy sitting in his shirt sleeves
since the arrival of the train at the depot, ex-
pecting it to move off every minute and determ-
ined not TO be left behind. The old lady re-
buked him for his heedlessness telling him he

up till his toe nails dropped Off"

The Fair Grounds.

Yesterday afternoon, in company withMessrs.
Charlton, Woodruff and Helms, We paid n Wis
it to the Fair Grounds, and there found fresh
evidence of the labors of the new administra-
ton, under the direction of Judge Temple
the President, and his efficient colleague Mr.
Charlton, Secretary of the Agricultural Soci-
ETY.. Along the fence and in other portions of
the grounds large number of trees and shrub
berry have been planted, which are protected
by railing from stock, and are growing finely,
having been carefully set out. In few years
these trees will afford protection from the sun
to the thousands who will annually assemble on
the grounds, besides adding much to their beau
ty.
The track has washed but little during the
winter and is in good order, though some work
will be done in order to make it one of the best
race courses in the State. The grounds are
all under good fence, and together with the
buildings are under the surveillance of Mr..
Sartain. We confidently hope our next fall
fair will be the grandest exhibition ever known
in East Tennessee, and if untiring energy on
the part of the friends of the Society can aid
in this result, it will be done.

when no offers $500 reward for any case of Ca

some skeptics and fogies who would continue to
shout, "Hun,6ug !" "Humbugi |" ut cannot

identical, good old fellow who honestly
believes and persists in declaring that this earth
is not round or spherical, but fiat rs slap

water should all be spilled out of Deacon Bas-
CONS mill pond. But astronomical science has
positively demonstrated and proven that Dr.
Homespun is wrong in supposing this earth to
be fiat and stationary, and medical science is
daily proving the fact that he is no less mistake
en- and behind tho times in regard to the cura-
bility of Catarrh. In short, it has been posi-
lively proven that this world moreS, and that

among themselves and with their attendants,
the merits of preparations for the hair are
freely canvassed, and the latest result of this
discussion seems to be the almost universal
adoption of Lyons Kathairon as an article bet
