The 'rysom Case Decided.

This case. which has occupied the
attention of the Circuit Court i'll this
city for several days was decided yes
terday 10y Judge Wingfeld in favor
of the railroad company. 1t will be
remembered that an act was passed
by the Legislature of Virginia at its
last session, entitled IAN act to COM
pletc the organization of the Allan
tic, Mississippi and Ohio Railroad
Company. This act recited that
the former of June III, 1870, con
tcmplated the ultimate absorption of
all the stock of the Virginia and
Tennessee. Virginia and Kentucky.
South. Side, and Norfolk and Peters
bury railroads iuto the new company,
and stated that white large major
ity Of the private stockholders in each
of the four companies had merged
their stock into the said new cOmpa-
nv. a few in each still refused to do
so and then provided for the .aP-
pointment of board Of commission
ers to value the stock of each of the
outstanding stockholders, and pre-
scribed that the board for the Virgin
ia and Tennessee stockholders should
report their valuation to the Circuit
Court Of Lynchburg for continuation.
Said board was appointed, met and
valued the stock Of Tyson and 9TH
ers, and made report to the court.
Said report coming up now for con-
firmation, it was opposed on the
ground that the act of the last ses-
sion was unconstitutional. and that no
power existed in the legislature to
condemn the stock of Tyson and 9th
ers for the benefit of the A. M, and
0. Railroad Company. 1t was fur
ther opposed OH the ground, that the
market value was not fair basis oil
compensation for these outstanding
Stockholders.
The Court. however, overruIed
both objections, held that the act
was constitutional, and the market
value Of the condemned stock was the
true basis of compensation to the hol-
ders thereof.
The counsel of Tyson intimated
their purpose to ask a superSedeaS
from the Court of Appeals.

The Good Time Coming.

1t is said that the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad will be completed by
the last of January, and full tr:ffic
over the road be begun in April. =
when the time arrives there will be a
double daily line of passenger trains
from Richmond to the West, and
fteight trains without number. 1t is
said, too, that coal viii be so cheap
that the only expense about fires will
be little kindling wood, and iron so
abundant that croSstics will be made
of it. We are almost brought back
TO the days of the Mexican war, when

And rivers ruin with brandy,

After the war, when things wore a
different aspect, he Glanced to make
another, but a different sort of speech
in the same place, when an indig-
nant voter who had heard and re-
membered the former boastful haran-
que rolled up his sleeves and ap
preached the Jud ge as follows:
"Sam Rice, didn't you make a
speech here in 1872

general tendency shown in the Prevail-

past. Skirts. such as were worn by
our grandmothers, have appeared,
narrow at the bottom and gradually
widening upwards. while waists show
a tendency towards being shortened
to the armpits. The bonnets of to-

LIrE IN>URANCE.


We call The attention of our
readers TO the tact that, brancn of
the Missouri Valley Life Insurance
Company has been established in
Bristol, as will appear by their adj
ycrtiscmcnt elsewhere. Each of
the officers and directors have a
five thousand dollar policy in it.
Upon the death of either of them
his family will draw in cash flat
amount. In Knoxville a branch
has been established with board
composed of such men as r. NJ.
McClung, of Cowan, McClung &
Co., Judge Tigg and others of
tried experience aud learning. The
money taken in by these branches
viii be loaned and invested AT
HOME. Never in the history of
life insurance have we known a
company so successful in the acqui-
sition of business. This fact speaks
volumes for the company and is at
once the best pledge that could be
uiycn. We advise our friends ev-
crywhcre to take policies in it. If
one cannot afford to spend money
in that way they can not spend it
II all. The glutton who will use
al his money while living does not
deserve a family. Take a policy
and rest cOntcntcd.

DIR. William IL, Sterling has pat.

DR.. William Ii. Sterling has pat
cntcd a process for preserving iron. -
An exchange says: Ills invention
contemplates the permanent preser-
vation of iron, This he accomplishes
by FIST heating tho iron in vacuo, in
order to expand it and open the
pores, and then forcing some nou-
oxydizing or non oxydizabie substance
into the intersticial and intcrccllular
spaces of the iron to cool. This thor
ou.hly impregnates the iron With a
substance which viii prevent it from
rusting or deteriorating in any man
ner. Among numerous substances
which can be used with the above re
suit, the inventor specially mention,
and state his preference 70 paraffine.
We regard this as enc Of the most
valuable patents which has ever been
taken out by an inventor on
this coast. England has offered a
large reward for any process that will
prevent iron oxydizing, in order that
their iron ships might be rendered
proof against the oxydizing effects of
saIt water, which soons destrays their
iron plating: and we hope that Dr..
Sterling will be the fortunate one to
receive it. ~. j. Mectanic.

En,por,at Medical Discovery.

1t appears that an accident, as in
many other discoveries, is about to
render an important service in the
cause of medicine, by which the eye
will be able to locate many diseases
whose source and locality must now
be determined by induction or infer
ence rather than sight, 1t appears
that DIR. Richardson. of London,
while experimenting with electricity,
about two years ago. was surprised to
find a portion Of his hand so illumin-
ated as to become perfectly transpar-
ent. TEis fact, and also similar
experiment by DR.. Priestly, induced
DIR. thomas Nicholson, of New
Orleans, not loug since, to pursue the
subject till he succeeded in complete
Illuminating the whole body. From
tie result of these experiments it
seems that in order to illuminate the
whole body, it would only he neccssa-
ry to increase the vividnesS of the
calcium light used and enlarge the
magnifying lenses employed, so as TO
gain sufficient power. When all the
internal organs of the human system
are thus inspected by actual sight,
there will be no need of diagnosing a
case to discover the cause or the scat
of the disease. In the case of wounds
or internal bruises, the surgeon can
determine at once the location OF the
bullet or the condition Of the part
affected also tumOrs. ulcers, or any
internal maIady, as easily as can a
housekcepcr the displacement OF an
article of furuiLnre, or an lux spot
upoa the carpet. 1t can be readily
perceived that this discovery may be
come an efficient aid to medical sci
emcc, and an incalculable blessing to
mankind. N j. Mechpic

Sanitary Reform In Germany.


An extensive system Of sanitary reform has
been proposed for the German Empire. A
board of health is to be established composed
of ordinary and extraordinary members. The
former will reside In Berlin. They will aid
the government by preparing and submitting
legislative measures 10 the interest of the pub
lie health of the whole Empire, reporting to
the local authorities OF the different States
such laws of health and such information as
may be of valde to them, and by organizing q
system of medical statistics Of the whole OF
Germany. The extraordinary members Will
be selected from persons who do not reside in
Berlin. and from the municipal officers OF The
larger German towns, professors of medicine,
government medical officers, or practical
chemists and architects. They will be required
to express an opinion on certain questions,
when summoned to do so by the Presldent-to
watch everything likely to affect the public
health In the neghborhood of their respective
residences, and to report on 1t to The president,
and finally, TO take part in the general confer
ences to be held from time TO time at Berlin.
