That south nashville "Grievance., ,,

To the Union and American
Am disposed to regard the increase OF
tlgenty .tfUe per cent in street car fares as a
rather live topic-judging from the number
of responses elected by the card Of Thurs
day. "Sharp" is poking fun at either me
or the Company, don't know which. The
card of "Director" is in excellent spirit, and
| hope something practical will result from
it. All that is wanted is fair test of the
snickel" plan, and packing" would be very
unfair. Whatever is true OF one month
ought to be true of three. Take the books
and cast up the gross receipts of the past
three months for 1872 and for 1873, noting
the increase this year, If any. Then allow
the same ratio of increase on the succeed
ing three months of 1872, to arrive at a
fair test for the same season this year.
The amount of guarantee necessary could
also be ascertsined by this means, as 20 per
cent of the company's expected receipts, l..
g., 14c on each expected q c., would cover
ali possible loss. This 20 per cent guarsn-
tee would be no great sum, and divided
among ten or more responsible parties, the
risk would be trifing indeed, compared
with the present advance of 25 per cent on
all travel. These ten or more parties ought
TO be the men most interested, the
men who own town lots and rent
ed houses by the dozen along the line. 1t
would make their property more salsble or
rentable, and therefore more valuable. 1t
will at least place South Nashville on lev
Ell with Edge6eld and Germantown, which
are going right ahead while we stand still.
By all means let us form the Syndicate and
secure the nickel plan for COLLEGE hill.

Go and see for Your.eIr

The Louisville papers boast considerably
of the superiority of their Exposition over
that Of last yer. They claim taat is Q,
very brilliant affair, and that it reflects great
credit upon their city. We have no dolbt
that it is well worth seeing. Parties who
may desire to visit Louisville during the
continuance of the Exposition, should re-
member that the Louisville and Nashville
and Great Southern Railroad sells round
tickets on Saturdays and Mondays of each
week at very little over half fare. Now is
the time to make up excursion parties to
visit the Expositions at Louisville, Cincin-
natl, and Indianapolis.

An Act Of CrueIty.-Chappsd hands

An Act Of Cruelty.-Chapped hands
and face are the mos serious annoysnces
that farmers, and people who labor much
out Of doors, experience from exposure.
Exposed persons, especially children, re-
peatedly suffer intensely from great cracks
upon the hands, that often blesd. lis cruel
to allow ones self or others to suffer in this
way, when the means Of positive preven-
ton are so easy to be bad, and so cheaply,
as to pay ten cents for cake OF Hand SS-
polio. Hand Sspolio is not only better than
the costliest soap for removing dirt, but 1t
prevents chapping, and renders the skin soft
and pliable. Sold everywhere.

BY fire, and, shocking to tell, three negro
children were burned to death In the flames,
the eldest Of whom was IA years old. The
parents were absent at church, and did not
return until the next day. Nothing but

seemed utterly Indifferent to the affair, and
it was not until two magistrates went to the
scene of the burning and examined the
premises that the particulars were fully
known. So far the origin of the fire has
not been discovered.
