DIED.,

At the residence Of DIR. Alex. Jackson, In
this CITY on Monday, 18th inst, OF Con-
sumption, Miss Alice lotion, daughter OF
Judge A. W. o. lotion, deceased, IN the
9th year Of her age
Miss lotion was born and educated In
Jackson. She was a lady OF decided char
acter aud reliable integrity. Although not
a professor Of religion, she died without
fear. Hers was a lonely life for many
years-father, mother, brother and sister
all having gone before, to the undiscovered
country. For two long weary years she
was sufferer, but she bore her suferings
with-that unfinching nerve so charaeterist-
ic of her house. requeseat in pace
On the 18th of April, 1878, of Pneumonia,
DIR. John G. Hendriek, of Mifhin. Tenn.
He was a young physician of promise,
and highly esteemed citizen-a kind hus-
band and devoted father. He served his
country in Col. Wilson's regiment, Capt.
Rice's company. He was much devoted to
Masonry, to which Order he belonged
Surrounded by his wife and child, father
and sister and many friends he died, we
hope, a triumphant death. Peace to his
ashes. A FRIEND.
There's happy meeting in Heaven for
those on earth SO loved SISTER.
In Knoxville, Tenn, on the 3Oth Glt.,
Mrs. MAYS, wife of the Rev. J. +. B. Msys,
late Pastor of the Baptist Church Of this
/ city.
This sad news will call tears to many an
eye in this city, where the deceased lady
was Known and loved. The bereavea hus-
band las the deepest sympathy of the en-
tire community in his great afiiction.

Nothing of much import has transpired
in this vicinity for the last week. our farm
ers are all busily engaged planting, and
peace and quiet prevails throughout our
town.
We took general ''tramp" through the
business portion Of the city few days ago,
and our astonishment was great at the rap
id growth of business within the past
year.
After our return we made little calcD-
lation Of the amount OF capital employed
in the aggregate by those who pay a priv
ilege tax, and we found it to be at low es-
innate, i've hundred and thirty thousand
deIlars, and this is not to be wondered at
when it is known that an average of eighty
