"a A correspondent of the Coun-
try Gentleman writing from Texas,
says a large cattle business has
sprung up with ST. Louis. Cattle
are shipped by cars to that city a
distance of nine hundred miles.
From st. Louis to New York is
about one thousand miles by rail.
The people of Tennessee have twen-
ty million acres of grazing lands in q
climate warm enough to raise fat cat
tie at profit. They are only about
one thousand miles from the city of
New York, and are nearer the great
cities of Philadelphia and Baltimore.
A pound of Texas beef can never be
worth more in New York, London or
Paris, than a pound of Tennessee
beef; and while it is transported by
rail nine hundred miles farther than
our beef, Texas is getting rich, and
filing up with immigrants, while
Tennessee does next to nothing,
either in the cattle or emigration
lines.

have been prompted by a vehement

~ The New York HerugFS re-
porter has been interviewing Col.
Forney on the subject of Cesarism.
Forney does not know Republican
i'll Pennsylvania who favors the idea
of third term. Senator Cameron
does, but he is probably not a Re-

Col. A. X. Mcclure has also been

An IMPORTANT OPINION.

An opinion was delivered in the
Supreme Court at Nashville, on
the I'd, by Chief Justice Nicholson,
which settles the question as to the
power of Chancery Courts in Ten
nessee, to grant or organize cor
porations. In the case of Thomas
Caldwell, ct al. e.c parte, which came
before Chancellor w. F. Cooper, of
Nashville, on petition for incorpora-
tion of the "Bersheba Springs Com
pany," the Chancellor refused to
grant the prayer of the petitioners
upon two grounds:
First-Because there is no general
law passed by the legislature which
authorizes the organization of such
corporation by the Chancery Court.
Second-Because the legislature
has no power under the constitution
to vest in the Chancellor the power
to create corporations of any kind
and hence that the acts of the Legis
lature, so far as they may have
sought to confer such power on the
Chancery Court, are unconstitutional
and void.
The Memphis Ledger condenses
the opinion of the Court as follows:
The Supreme Court sustained the
decision below, and held that the
. constitution of 1870, article IL,
section 8, does not either expressly
or by necessary implication, author
ize the legislature to vest in the
courts the power to create as well as
organize corporations. Under the
construction placed upon the above
quoted article IL, section 8, of the
constitution, by the Supreme Court
in this cause, there is grave cause
to doubt whether any power exists
in the legislature or the courts, to
create or organize certain kind of
corporations.
The constitution of 1870 took this
power from the legislature, but au-
thorized that body to pass a general
law under which corporations could
be put in operation in the State.
The legislature on 30th of January,
1871, attempted to fulfill the require
ments of TIE constitution in that re-
gard, and enacted a law which is
now pronounced by the Supreme
Court as unconstitutional.-Un
the act of the General Assembly of
I849, chapter II, the county courts
were mediums through which char
ters could be put in operation in this
State.

RANKIN S DEPOT.
A DELIGHTFUL SABBATH SCHOOL PICNIC
THREE SCHOOLS REPRESENTED.
Correspondence of the dorristown Gazette.


Correspondence of the Morristown Gazette.
RANK1N's DEPOT, Sept. I6, 73.
It was my pleasure to be at a
Sabbath School picnic, on the 22d
of August, at Hudson's School
House. 1t was the most complete
success I ever witnessed in the way
of Sabbath School picnic. No one
thought of seeing more than $50
persons on the occasion, and sup
posed that there would be provisions
enough for that many. but to my as
tonishment. there was from 600 to
700 persons and table about
100 feet long, loaded with every
thing that was good to eat, and bas-
kets full, stacked underneath, to
fill up the table as fast as it was
consumed. There were three schools
present: Liberty Hill and Rorex
Chapel Schools being the visitors.
When we got near the grove
where this large table was spread,
we met Col. II. F. Darby, with his
staff. all in full uniform, to receive
the other Schools and escort them to
the stand in the grove.
The exercises of the day was
opened by prayer by Rev. Mr.. Liv-
ingston; followed by a few we'll
timed and appropriate remarks from
Mr.. John L. Clark, who introduced
each class for examination and also
the speakers. &c. The declama-
tions by Masters Tommie' Clark and
Tommie Cox were excellent. Mr..
John ]. Hudson, the young gentle
man who examined the classes, acted
his part very well, indeed. Maj.
Thos. Noe and t. G.. Bibee, Esq,
deserve a great deal of credit for
the way they waited on the table.
l understand that this school has
not been organized only about 3 or
6month, under the superintend'ncy Of
Mr.. Calvin III. Hudson. 1t hardly
looked possible that children could
be SO far advanced in that length of
time. None of the city Sabbath
Schools could excel this School,
where they keep regularly organized
all the time. Success to the School
and hope that they may persevere
in the good cause they have started
in. Q.QUB.

JEFF. Davis Our Enemy.
hickman (Ky.) Courier ]


From being great leader Of the
South Mr.. Davis is degenerating in
to the greatest enemy to the pros
perity and well being of our section.
All ex-rebels are anxious to cherish
his name with kindness and even
affection, but such speeches as the
one we publish in full in this issue
from him prove him positive enemy
Of the recuperating but yet bleeding
South for, unfortunately, whatever
Mr.. Davis says the Southern people
are held responsible. 1t is useless to
deny or explain. The Southern peo-
pie can only repudiate his utterances
through the press and representative
men, and let the North finally learn
that he represents no one but him
self.

Clay had a standing Joke which he
never failed to perpetrate at Adams
expence, when he caught his Mas4a
c. usetts colleague in congenial crowd.
Adams was afflicted during bis whole
life with disease of the laehrymal
duct, which caused his OPTICS to be
constantly wstery. The two occupied
the same department, and a rosy and
buxom Swiss damsel attendedtheroom.
Clay S story was that, upon his attempt
ing to snatch kiss from his handsome
chambermaid, he was blufod off with,
''Oh, Mr.. Clay, you must not, for Mr.
Adams, few minutes ago, begged me
with tears in his eyes for siufilsr fa-
vor, and refused him. - n. %
1t is well-known fact that in early
life, as these parties were launching
forth en- the sea of politics, there exis-
ted s bitter feud between General
Jackson and the Bent.n rs. This at
last eliminated in a tavern fight with
pistols and sword canes in Nashville,
Tennessee, in which jackson, with his
friend Col Coffee and the two Bentons
Thomas IL. and Jesze-participated.
The result was that Col Benton plan
ted bullet in the fsshy part of Gen.
Jackson S arm, which the old hero car
ried until hi second presidential term,
when it was extracted by DR.. Jackson,
celebrated Philadelphia surgeon.
During the closing years of his last
Presidential term, General Jackson
had occasional and violent attacks of
hen orrhage of the lungs, and DR.. Lewis
Field Linn, Of Missouri, the colleague
of Colonel Benton in the Senate, was
his physician. The bitter feud having
long teforo been settled Colonel Ben
ton was a frequent visitor at tho White
House, and was specially attentiv,
during the illness of his former foe.
DR.. Linn, feeling himself justified by
his intimacy with the parties, (: yentured
to ask their version of the Ma shville
Benton you tell it,"
was the response Of OLD Hickory
mo, Jackson, L Il leave it to you, for
your account Will be correct.'' and.
pending on the discussion, the two an
cient foemen were crying like children.

BreckInrfdge,s visit to the President.
TATE sPRINGs. Sept. IA. rs.

[Iong Branch telegram (Aug. 91) to the Chicago
TribuneI
Gen. John g. Breckenridge called
as matter Of personal courtesy on
President Grant, whom he had not
seen since the Mexican war, where
they were fellow officers and very
intimate. Although Breekinridge
has been frequently in Washington
since the close of the war, he did not
think it would be delicate for him
to visit the President in the Execu-
tive Mansion. lie was accompanied
to the Presidents cottage by Mr..
John Hori, and spent a portion of
the evening in very agreeable
conversation. Senator Freliug-
huysen was present, and others drop
ped in during the evening to pay
their respects. No allusion whatev-
er was made to the late war on the
part of either of the gentlemen. The
President greeted Mr. Breckenridge
very kindly and referred to the last
time they met, which was when
Grant was slightly wounded in one
Of the Mexican engagements. They
called up old memories and old
friends, and traced the latter into
after life. There is but years diff
ference in the ages of the two gen.
tlemen. General Grant being fifty
two and General Breckenridge fifty
one. The latter received an invita-
ton to call again.

PoYIssIOn storcs in Germany.
G. FuIton's Darms,adt Letter in the Baltimore
Americana ..-s

[C. c. Fultons Daruastadt Letter in the Baltimore
Americana ..rs
There is no regular meat market
in any Of the German cities, and
with the exception Of Stuttgart we
have not met with q market-house
Of any description. Thereis usually
a public square set apart for mark
ct, well paved with stone, but with
out eveu a shed or public stall upon
it. The market people merely set
their baskets down and stand along
side Of them, though some bring
stalls with them, and have large
umbrellas. All kinds of meat is OBJ
tanned from the provision stores,
which are very numerous, and are
fitted up with great elegance. To
look in at an American provision
store on u warm day is enough to
to spoil ones appetite, but the Ger
man provision store makes a man
hungry to look at it. The meat is
displayed on white marble slabs,
the windows are ornamented with
specimens of meat, sausages aand
other articles, with a little fountain
playing over an urn full Of gold fish.
There is an air Of cleanliness and
sweetness about the whole establish
ment. and the duty of salesmanis
usually performed by a bright, rosy
checked lass, who handles the weap-
ons of her profession with all the
skill Of a professor. We always
make it a rule to stop and look in at
these neat little establishments, and
wonder why it is that we, with our su-
perabu2dance of ice, cannot present
similar stores. Fruits and vegeta-
bles are not eaten here as with us.
With the exception Of pears, plums
and cherries, there is nothing in the
markets, and these are in such limit
ed quantities that one of our fruit
dealers at the Lexington or Marsh
market would monopolize the Whole
stock offered this morning to pop
ulation of 40, 900 people. A pound
of plums was an extensive sale to
any one purchaser. Peaches are O
curiosity, and are hard and sour,
They are always sold at so many
kreutzers q piece, and never by
the measure. Truly, the American
tourist depriyes himself Of many Of
the joys of life by spending his sum
mer in Europe. Only think Of the
loss of canteleupes, watermelons,
peaches and hot corn, and having TO
put up with a spoonful Of strawber-
ries or raspberries without cream.

cumberland County.--From the Cum
berland County papers of last week, I'VE
copy the following: y
Gu last Sunday afternoon colored girl
named Julia Branson, living in Sawtelle-
town, aged about 10 years, was terribly
burned. 1t seems that she was seated in
front of the stove asleep, and hot coal
falling upon her dress ignited it, and all
her clothing was in flames before she awal1-
ened, and herperson was burned in terri
BILE manner Medical aid was called in, but
her injuries arc of very serious nature.
One day last week, one of the workmen
in the moulding department of Gardner &
Cos. shops, threw, as he supposed, an old
exploded shell, which he happened to find
among some scrap iron, into the fire.
Strange to say, it exploded with a terrible
noise, shaking the very ground and Great
ing no little alarm among the workmen.
On last Thursday evening an attempt
was made to fire the house of Robt. Nc
Keehan, at Mt. Rock. Some evil-disposed
person had placed quantity of brown pa
per in bonnet box in the upper story, set
fire to it, turned the lid bottom side up over
the fire, placed it under bed in the spare
room and left it. The family noticed the
smell of smoke, and on searching found
these traces. 1t was only because the fire
was smothered that disastrous confagra-
tion was prevented. The fire had burned
through the bottom of the box into the
carpet.
Philip Pritsch was arrested one day last
week on information made by Thomas
Armstrong for selling beer contrary to the
Local Option law. Pritsch entered bail
for his appearance at the August Court
Mr.. Levi Hooker, residing near Mechan-
icsburg, lost several horses and mules from
the effects of poison, supposed to have been
administered on Thursday of last week by
some fiend in human shape. Mr.. Hooker
has no knowledge of having injured any
one himself, and is ignorant as to having
any enemies. Two valuable mules re-
centlyrpurchased, and a fine horse and colt
are already dead, and another fine horse is
not expected to recover. Mr.. Hooker is
a young man just beginning farming, and
this loss is heavy one for him.
