The Mail says /: 'sWe can't blame
Marshall county Tor voting for the rail-
road, because she has none. If Maury
had no road, we might favor tax to
build one"
oh consistency thou art a jewel A
few weeks ago our cotemporary was
opposed to taxation for railroad pur-
poses on "principle''-the principle that
it was morally wrong and ungenerous
for three-fourths of the people to vote a
tax on the remaining one>fourth, to
make internal improvements. Now he
opposes the proposition because he
thinks one road is enough. We routed
him from his first position with reason
ing that he could not answer; and
now we intend to drive him from his
last stronghold. If he acknowledge
and ne dOes-that the Nashville road,
running north and south, has been ben
otcial to the county, by what process
Ofroasoning will he be able to establish
that a competing road, running east
and west, will not be equally beneficial?
This new ROAD will bring us in direct
communication with the coal folds on
the east and iron beds on the west; thus
aifordiHg rare opportunity to our
county capital TO become a great man
ufacturing city; and at the same time
1t furnishes tine outlet to the whole
western world, bringing us in direct
connection with st. Louis We have
heretofore frequently furnished facts,
showing the value of having compet>
ing road, and will not reproduce them
here.

with the stars, have even made more
serious predictions for us than cholera
morbus and pestilence. They say that
each summer, from this time on until
1885 is to be more and more intensely
heated; and that there is a pretty fair
chance before the turning point is
reached for us to be burned or dried up.
But, to leave the astronomers and the
heavenly bodies, and come again to ter
rd TRINA, and what we know 20 be com
mon sense and truth, we would say to
our country friends, come on to town,
if you have any business here, and stop
listening to the crossroads reports that
columbia is full of cholera" for we
have not now, nor have we had this
summer, single case of that dreaded
disease. We have had some of our
cholera-morbic affections which are
usual at this season; but what is rather
unusual, we have not had, as far as we
have been able to learn, a single death
from them. Our country friends may
rely upon this statement.

The $50 Called or s'The Pre-
VaIIimg.1 What is it?s

The something resembling Asiatic
Cholera, which has so alarmed our peO-
pie, is being discussed by the newspa-
pers throughout the country. With one
swoop it affected not only what was
called the border States, but the entire
South, and transcribed the old Mason
and Dixon line, and affected some of the
Northern States. And what is it? Did
ever a cholera before of AsIatic origin
'come in such questionable shape?
Here is q vast section of country all af-
fected more or less at the same time,
but the principal mortality has been
confined 10 Nashville and Memphis.
Instead of "The Prevailing" being
Asiatic Cholera, may it not be ''new
departure" from our old cholera-mor-
bus. which is the cholera of all lands
and seasons, but especially of those
where filth and heat abound, together
with the various inlprudences of living.
But after all, may not our planet have
some astronomical arrangement, which
has had something to do with this wide
spread disease? 1t is true we have had
fulfilled the predictions of scientists
made some twelve months ago. They
then said we were to have long, cold
winter. without spring, as a step be-
tween it and summer. That the adj
vent OF summer was to DO sudden and
the season extremely hot, accompanied
by sickness and pestilence. The cause
OF this was fOreseen in the relations our
planet would bear to other planets and
suns. These savants further stated that
our earth was to be so perturbated as
10 have relations with Mercury, Mars
and the other not planets during this
season which it has never heretofore
sustained. We are told by them that
about the time the pleasure-seekers
were returning from the watering places
last fall, our solar system, together with
one like our own, concluded also to take
little trip, around Alcyone, one of the
seven stars, and though we are now
travelling at the rate OF seventy>five
thousand miles an hour, yet we shall
get a pretty good broad, as il will
take us within a fraction of twenty bill
lions of years to make the circuit. If
this be true, and we are thus peregri-
mating through new space, with our as
froIoricsl relations so greatly disturbed,
NAV not this, in part, at least, account
for the increase of cholera-mOrbus in
our country? These experts who deal
