ACTs OF LOvE.-Each one of q
thOuasnd acts of love costs very lit
tie by itself, and yet, when viewed
all together who can estimate their
value? What is it that secures for
one the name Of kind neighbor!-
Not the doing of half = dozen great
favors in as many years; but the lit
tie everyday kindnesses, none of
which seems of consequences, con
sidered in itself; but the continued
REPETITION of which sheds a sunlight
over the whole neighborhood. 1t is
so too in the family. The child whose
good offices are always ready when
they are wanted-tO run up stairs or
down, to rock cradle, or to run on
an errand; and all with cheerful
look and a pleasant temper-has re-
ward along with such good deeds.
If little girl cannot take her grand
father on her, lap as he takes her on
his, she can get his slippers; or put
away his books; or gently comb his
thin locks; and whether she thinks OF
it or not, these little kindnesses that
come from a loveing heart, are the
sunbesms that tighten up a dark and
WOeful world

DREARY HoMEs.-Of all the drea-
ry places, deliver us from the drea-
ry farmhouses which so many peO-
pie call "home." Bars for front
gate; chickens Wallowing before the
door; pig pens elbOWing the house
on the rear: scraggy trees never car
ed for, or no trees at all; no nOwer-
ing shrubs, no neatness, no trimncss-
And yet. tlawn, trees, and a neat
walk, and pleasant porch, and
plain fence around do not cost great
deal. They can be secured little by
little. at odd times, and the expense
hardly felt. And if the time comes
when it is best to sell the farm, nifty
dollars SO invested will often bring
back five hundred. For a man is
wrong who will not insensibly give
higher price for such farm when
he thinks of the pleasant surrouud-
ings it offers his wife and children.

The Memphis Avalanche says:
On the 5th the President signed
the bill for an amend ment TO the ma
tional bankrupt law, providing for
exemptions, and the amendment is
now a law, which will make impor-
tant differences in the settlement Of
bankrupt estates. The bankrupt
law itself provides for an exemption
to the amount of $500. The amond-
ment, however, not only allows all
other exemptions under the State
laws, but allows them against all
liens, no matter when or how ac-
quired, but even allows them against
all debts contracted prior 10 the
passage of the law, the decision OF

In providing for the establishment
of additional asylums for the insane,
deaf aud dumb, and bliud, this As
sembly has appropriated $500, 900,
moro than has been appropriated at
any previous session. Heretofore
the annual tax has been forty (40)
cents on the 500 ad valorem; and
members have refused to vote more
for the ensuing year; and unless they
so amend their assessment bill be-
fore adjourning, that property shall
be more equitably assessed than II
has been, there will not be enough
revenue collected TO meet the cur
rent expenses and appropriations.
Governor Brown feels very much
demoralized over the continued OPP
position to the funding bill-a pet
scheme of his and more so since he
must rely mainly on the Radicals Of
the General Assembly for support
and countenance. II the Democra-
cy is not dead elsewhere it is en-
phatically so in Tennessee, and, as a
general thing, il has been killed in
this State by its ostensibly Warmest
Bourbon supporters.

a Partner for Life.

What is the aim of nine out of ten
of the young ladies who have suit
ors visiting them? Do they have
any? Certainly-most of them do,
only to forget it. A little presence
of mind on these occasions would
save future unhahappiness. bs
The young gentleman, in many in
stances, Is agreeable, gay, and hand
some; and this dazzles the eyes so
utterly that the young lady refuses
to look further. She should satisfy
herself on such points as these:
"Will those eyes, in which Cupid
now dances so merrily, always fnd
expression from the love of a true
soul? Now, he says many pleasant
things, and draws pretty pictures
for the future. Does he go to-mor-
row to work which gives promise
of the fulfillment Of your desires in
life? Does his every day life shine
with the noble endeavors of trust
worthy man2 If you think, and de-
sire a companion in your thinking
one who can unlock the deepest
depths Of yo6r mind-to what stra-
IA of humanity does he belong in the
scale OF excellence and morality! Is
he doing all he can to build up fu-
ture usefulness and happiness, in
which you can share and feel bless
ed?''
These are the questions which the
experience of after years make many
women weep in bitterness of soul
that they had not thought Of before
they answered Eyes" We should
look out for to-day's regulations
and tO-morrow's successes. The
witticisms and endearments lavish
ed so freely may all be very pleas
ant, but they will not last. They
will grow tame and spiritless; aud,
if nothing comes to take their place,
woe to the happiness vainly invoked
on the shores of the desolation open
ing all around.

We learn through a gentleman
from Brownsville that suit has been
entered in the Haywood Circuit
Court against the Sfemphis and Lou
isville Railroad Company, by Messrs
Austin & Thomas, Henry Taylor
and several others, merchants of
that place, to recover $500, 900, al
legged to have been extOrted from
them by the railroad company IN
overcharges on freights, principally
cotton, shipped over the line of the
road within the last four or five
years. The burdensome and unjust
Determinations againet local ship
pers. in the tariff of rates on our
railroads, has long been a subject of
grieYous complaint amongst mer-
chants, with whom il has also been
question whether the road had
any legal right TO thus discriminate
against them, and in favor of
through shippers. The gentlemen
at Brownsville propose to test this
question fully. A long and arduous
legal contest may be looked for, in
asmuch as both parties are possessed
of ample resources for the prosecu-
ton OF the suit, and the amount in
yolved as well as the legal question
at issue, are of too much importance
to be surrendered except upon the
fiat of the court of last resort. In
the meantime the result will be
watched with eager interest by the
public. There is scarcely citizen
in the community who viii not be
affected by the result of this suit

and the whole of it in thirty-nine
years, than to pay 81, 1,l42, 900 annual
ly Qn addition TO all other taXes)
for forty years, and leave the debt
entirely unpaid.
The undersigned therefore SOL
emnly protest against the passage of
said Senate bill No. 21I.
l. Because they do not think it
will permanently improve the State
credit; but on the contrary, that
funding the past due debt will injnre
it by increasing the debt, and thus
making it the more difficult TO meet.
2. Because it is bad financial pol
icy.
8. Because its provisions are iDju-
riOus and oppressive TO the people.
In voting against the passage of
said bill, the undersigned did not,
by any means, intend to ignore the
State debt, nor to defeat any meas
ure that would improve and sustain
the State credit. On the contrary
they are opposed 10 repudiation in
any form or shape, and were willing
and ready to assist in providing q
sinking fund for the payment of the
past due debt, and funds to pay the
future interest on the outstanding
State debt, or 10 assist in the pas
sage Of any measure that would do
equal justice 70 both the bondhold-
er and taxpayer.

A REMARKABLE CAsE.-About
three weeks ago lady 66 years OF
age, living near lions Church, on
Whites Creek, gave birth to a child,
Drs. Searcy and Manlove being the
attending physicians Both mother
and child are doing well, the child,
girl, being the very picture of
health. The lady in question is
the mother of several daughters all
of whom were married several years
ago, and before this new departure,
had the happy privilege of paying
her attentions to numerous grand
children. This is certainly a very
remarkable case, and we doubt if
the medical records show a similar
one anywhere. The fortunate farth-
er is about the same age of his wife.
All we have to say is bully for Zion's
Church and White Greek, and may
the mother and father live long and
prosper, and enjoy many such bles.

When, one day, weary with the
cares Of State, the Senator from
Kentucky was snOozing in his chair
his name was called to vote. A
neighbor punched his ribs and said
"wake up, MFR. Davis, your name is
called" Half unconsciOusly the
kentuckian rose and asked the Vice
President what they were voting on.
The Vice President explained that it
was railroad bill in Kansas.
SWELL" said Mr.. Davis, in that
shrill and pointed manner of his,
"What | want to know before vote,
is the amount of stealing in this
bill"
Whereupon the great and good
Pomeroy arose, his face beaming all
over with the smiles which only a
clear conscience can produce, and
said:
"ff the Senator from Kentucky
will permit me | will explain. /
have thoroughly investigated the
bill, sir, and | can assure you if there
is any stealing in it cannot find it."
"All right, Mr. President" re-
sponded Mr. Davis, "if the Senator
from Kansas can't finG any stealage,
I'm satisfied there is none there. .
