THELATE FROST.

TIE frost last night was general through
out East Tennessee, aud so far as eur in
formation enables us to judge, was very de-
struclive, In some places killing the fruit en-
tirely for large area, while in others it is
more or less hurt
M Joseph B. Wright, who came in from
Beaver Creek yesterday, reports the frost as
very severe. Not only were the vegetables
killed, but the buds on the forest trees were
bligh'ed and crumblej under the touch as
though scorched by a sirocco.
Mr. j. G. Gum, whose nursery is situat-
ed South of the river viii be heavy loser,
large number Of budded trees being bad
ly frosted, though some Of those injured
will not prove total loss.
Mr.. Charlton, who has just returned from
a trip through the upper portion of this
county around Gap creek, into Sewer coup-
ty, and reports the cherries all killed as also
the peaches; there will be a few apples, but
even the grapes are hurt.
Residents of upper East Tennessee along
the line ofrailroAd from Bristol to this city,
state that the frost was very severe on fruit
and vegetables, though the wheat, FORUM
stely, is not sufficiently advanced to ne in
jured.-Kn KnoIUilLe Chronicle, Apra 29.
During yesterday, we had an opportunity
TO converse with men from different coun-
ties in East Tennessee, and we had an OPP
portuDity Uf learning the extent of damage
done by the recent frost. In every instance
We were informed that the peach crop has
been almost entirely destroyed. Apples
have been severely damaged and the grape
and pear crop injured to a considerable ex-
tent.-KnoTUille Press and Herald, ApriI

Brazen LawIessness Of q Railway

The Property of Rival Line De.
by Force.
PITTsBURG, April 30.-About O'Clock
this afternoon the Pittsburg and Connells-
vile Road Company sent force OF men to
restore the track on the Broad Ford branch,
destroyed some weeks since, as charged, by
parties acting under directions of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The
Iaborers we're met by force Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, 200 strong,
who prevented the accomplishment of the
work by demonstrations Of violence. They
also burned two small bridges on the part
of the road next to the main line, thus eff
fectually defeating the object of the eXpe-
dition. The Connellsville force quietly
withdrew according 10 orders. The inter-
ruption to travel has been the cause OF Sc
rious complaints from persons doing busi-
ness on the branch road. The Connels-
vile company has filed a bill in equity to
prevent further interference with their
rights. Argument will be heard i'll the
Supreme Court in Harrisburg next week.
The Salisbury Horror.
Excitement relative to the murder Of the
little eirl. Lizzie Hess, at Salisbury, near
this city, yesterday, still continues. The
shoes of The two men, Pohl and Hyndman,
arrested yesterday, fit in the tracks discov,,
erred near the spot where the murdered
child was lying, but no other evidence fix
ing guilt on the prisoners has been secured.
Several new theories hsve been advanced
to-day in view of the possible innocence OF
the men in custody, and the detectives are
working energetically. H#

THE moNLEsIs an VIENNA.

There is 8 curious significance in the
forthcoming visit to the Austrian Capital of
the representatives of Mussulman power
that, not many centuries ago, carried con-
ouering nners 10 its gates. The Turks,
who for so long time were the terror of
Europe, met with a desperate resistance in
Austria, and in the magnificent Hall of
Armor at Vienna is the fsmons horse tail
standard of Jhon Sobieski, who
rolled back the tide of Moslem invasion.
The Sultan of Turkey, who will be con-
spicuous visitor at the Vienna Exposition,
has been il Western Europe before, but
the Shah of Persia is the first sovereign of
that country who has journeyed thither
since the days Of XerXes. Neither the Su-
tan nor the Khedive will astract the 9tten-
tion which will be excited by the Shah.
The successor Of a long line of kings
among whom Cyrus the Great and the re
doubtsble Nadr are conspicuous, he is
bound to receive great attention. AS the
present dynasty of Persia has only reigned
since 1874, when its founder clutched The
sceptre that fell from the nerVeless hands
of Kurreem Kha0, Nasar- Ed-Din has nat1-
rally had few predecessors Of his line. he
ranks fourth from Aga Mahomet, and IN
This. the 26th year Of his reign, is to favor
The outside barbarians Of Europe with
yi,w of his august person.
