Pork Raising

The municipal regulations concerning swine
have become a byword and a reproach among a
great many citizens, and it has even extended
to adjoining counties. A friend at Jacksboro
overheard conversation in which the subject
was mentioned.
The advantage of the Knoxville market and
the cheapness of vegetable products to be had
in it were thoroughly discussed. But then the
disadvantages, of course, were also brought FORTH
and prominent among them were the high price
of house rent and extraordinary privileges ac-
corded to the swine family, Here they could
with impunity enter the premises of q citizen
and help himself to the choicest in his garden,
and should the aforesaid citizen take vengeance
in his own hand, why it only costs him the price
of the hog and lawyers fee and the cost of the
suit. l heard that one gentleman here who was
speaking of removing to Knoxville should have
said that the first investment he would make
would be 20or Is hogs to turn loose in the city.
Some one asking him what his idea was for this
he replied that he would not think of residing
in a pork raising community without having a
slight interest in the business, whichseemed to
be specially among them. He would COM
nence with 90 but wouldn't mind doubling
that number to make his interest sure

A Beautiful Location Secured.
The National Camp meeting of the NJ. +.
Church will be held near Knoxville, commenc-
ing on the 2lst of September, and to accommo-
date the large crowd expected on the occasion,
ample preparation will be made. On Monday
a number of members of the Methodist Church
went out on the Knoxville and Ohio railroad, in
a special car kindly furnished by President Z.
NJ. McGhee, and made an examination, but
could find no suitable location.
Yesterday afternoon large party, among was
DIR. N. Z. Cobleigh, editor of the Methodist Ad,
Uocate took special car on the Knoxville and
Charleston railroad, and made an examination
of grounds for the purpose and were successful
in their search, discovering beautiful location
about twelve miles from this city, on the land Of
Mr.. Ambrister, on which is magnificent
spring of clear, cold water, sufficient for the
supply of thousands. We understand that the
Church will buy ten acres of land including the
spring, and have it fenced and otherwise improve
it for permanent camp ground. 1t on the
line of railroad, is easy of access and with low
fares will be largely attended during the pro-
gress of the meeting.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Aug. IA, 1872.
The activity in Wheat noticed in our last re-
port continues with buyers at full prices for all
good Wheat offered. Inferior and trashy
Wheat sells slowly at prices far below quota
tons, and never gives satifaction. The contin-
ued dry weather in upper East Tennessee, caus-
es apprehension for the Corn crop, and has a
tendency to stifen prices of Wheat, but it will
be found that this is local only and will not af-
feet materially the general market. The stock
of Corn is exhausted with fair local and a
small shipping demand. Some Corn, held in
the hands of farmers, can now be disposed of at
60a65 loose. Oats continue to come in freely
and arc readily taken at 25a30c per bushel.
Flour is offered by some of our country millers
at So 50a3 rs per sack, in car load lots. When
prices have receded a little from this, we expect
an active shipping demand to the cotton States.
All Bacon offered finds ready sale at full prices.
Hams are much sought after when free from
shippers. A limited quantity of Rye is wanted
at fair prices.
Bacon and Lard are in good demand for local
use, at fair prices.

:" It is not good for man to be alone" So
James Murphy thought, on last Tuesday morn
ing, when he arose from almost sleepless
couch, to prepare'to attend Church at Graves
town, peaceful village in this county. Ac-
cordingly he repaired to the residence eff John
Burkheart, much against the wishes of some OF
the inmates, and proposed to accompany Miss
Harriet Burkheart to Church, which PROPOSE
ton was kindly received by the object of his adj
grafton. Both believing that it was not good
Tor man to remain alone, they concluded and re-
solved to perpetuate that mornings happiness
throughout the vast vicissitudes of their subse-
quent llte. Failing far behind the unsuSpicious
parents, who were riding in buggy and unpre-
pared TO follow the youthful wonderings of love
sought fancy, they on arriving nearC lapp's Chap
81 changed their course for one of more roman
TIC scenery, They soon met James Luttrell
rev ID. Il. Byerly, James Shipe and others
who CHANGED to direct their steps thither. = ;
1nese oeing somewhat acquainted with the
heartfelt wishes OF the loving two extended a
helping hand in time of need. They received
their friendly aid with many thanks. and tbronoL
an uninhablted section and woody road tbse,
soon arrived at the house of James EuttreIl tbe;r
esteemed pilot messenger having been pre-.
viously sent viz: Joe Luttrell, in search rs a
preacher to administer a few soothing words
from matrimony's favorite vocabulary to the
loving pair. The velocity of the nimble messen-
ger (being too fast for an ''old body'') excited
the people about Bethlehem. Being asked what
WINS Ino naeter ne Volu CDefn InaI man over the
way was very sick with palpitation of the heart
and wished the preacher to talk to him before
he died. Without any one finding out his real
business he procured the services Of Elder John
Walters, residing near McMillan's $, who reached
Mr.: LuttrelPs house within FIVE minutes of the
arrival of the other party
All things being ready he soon, with becom-
ing modesty, pronounced the twain one flesh.
Having partaken bountifully OF the luxIIries of
the old farmers table, the bridegroom and bride
with an appropriate escort, departed for the long
sought roof of their future home.
