toners to enter and find anything they
may need.
Pulaski has two banks, (F1orence has
none), beautiful courthouse, elegant
residences, and as fine a citizenship as
any place Of its size inside or outside of
the State. There is one thing, howev-
er, that is wanting in this city to eorre-
spond with everything else about it. and
that is a hotel. The old time. concern
tat now offers entertainment for man
and beast is not in keeping with the
growth and prosperity of the place.
All the people we talked with favor
the railroad to Florence. They say
they win meet us half way, and 90 as
far the other way to meet the road com
ing from Cincinnati, thus making the
connection through.
Perhaps our people don't know that
the Ohio and Cumberland Rivers Rail-
road is now being constructed from
Cincinnati to GalIatin, thence to Pulas-
III, and from thence IL win come to
Florence, If we will only do our part.
Marshall county, Tenn, has voted
$225,OO0, Sumner $500, 900. in alp of the
road. Giles viii do her part. What
viii Lauderdale do?
We know there are some men, spirit
and enterprise LEFT among us. We ap-
peal to them to put forth their influence
and energies, and let US have this road.

The Increase of Salaries.

At last the salaries Of Government Of
ficials, including Congressman. have
been raised. The thing wouldn't be so
bad If they hadn't voted themselves
back pay for the Congress just ended.
1t passed the House by yeas 100, nays
81. Six Tennesses members voted aye,
namely: Messrs. Butler, Caldwell, Col
laday, Garrett, Maynard and Vaughan.
M-ssrs. Bright and Whitthorne did not
vote.
The salaries are thus fixed: President
of the United States, $4,000; Chief
Justice Of the Supreme Court, Vice
President, Speaker Of the House, and
members of the Cabinet, $4,000; Sena-
tors, Members and Delegates to Con-
gress, $4,000. The increased pay of
members is TO apply to the present Con-
gress; that of President and other Off
GERS to commence the 4th of March,
1873.
The vote was taken amid great ex-
element. Speaker Blaine insisted,
however, that the increase should apply
only hereafter in the case Of the Speaker.

ute he wrote to her memory, but the
following beautiful little poem viii not

Mus as a gem worthy to give additional
lustre to her fair fame:
The boy who does a stroke and stops
win Be'er great man be;
lis the aggregate Of single drops
That makes tie sea the sea.
The mountain was not, at its birth,
A mountain, so 70 speak;
The little atoms of sand and earth
Have made its peak peak.
Not all at once the morning streams
The gold above the gray;
It's thousand little yellow CLEANS
That make the day the day.
Not from the snow-drift May awakes
IN puppies, reds and greens;
Springs whole bright retinue it takes
To make her queen Of queens.
Upon the orchard rain must fall,
And soak from branch TO root,
And blossoms bloom and fade withal
Before the fruit is fruit.
The farmer needs must SOW and till,
And wait the wheaton bread,
Then cradle, thresh and 90 to mill,
Before the bread is bread.
Swift heels may get the early shO1t,
But spite of all the din,
II is the patient holding out
That makes the winner win.

Twill help to sInoothe the way,
And steady up both hand and heart

Do Yon Want linads2

An article upon this subject in late
issue of the Florence Times and Jour
nal is even more applicable to this To-
cality, If possible, than to that for which
it was written. We copy it verbatim,
except we interpolatc the word "turn-
pike" at two places, and declare il
perfect reflex OF our own condition:
Every one who Is not blinded by
selfshnesS, which, like the snail, carries
all his wealth on his back, must see that
unless our people put forth the spirit of
enterprise and improvement, our coun-
try viii literally dry up. Already
thousands are pacNiHg mp what goods
and chattels they have LEFT and moving
OF 10 other States. Instead of inviting
immigration, capital and enterprise, we
are driving our people away with all
the wealth they can take witch them.
Other communities not SO well of rs
we are have put forth their energies,
and, uniting together, have overcome
obstacles far greater than those that
meet las in oar plans. What we lack Is
the disposition 20 try. We have too
many of that class called the cau'ts and
won'ts. They are forever opposing
anything that calls for the expenditure
OF money, and their strongest argument
Is eve cnat do it, The true reason Is
they won't help.
This is a great country; il has good
lands, large cotton plantations, fine
farms for grain, stock and grass, SPLEEN

everything hUt enterprise. We pay not
less than thirty or forty thousand dol

cause there Is no market for IL, 10 build

\ short time ago Mr.. VIM. Rule, of
the Knoxville Chronicle, wrote and
published in his paper letter from
Memphis, criticising the management
OF the Memphis and Charleston Rail-
road under the Presidency of Maj. NJ.
J. Wiyks. That gentleman demanded
an immediate and unconditional re-
traction of the offensive article. Mr..
Rule declined to retract further than to
offer the use of his columns to Mai.
Wicks for yindication and defence, say
ing that the statements made were
based upon good authority, and that as
"A public journalist he claimed the right
TO inquire into and expose the acts OF
public officials who had the manage
ment OF enterprises IN which the public
was interested. Maj. Wicks thereupon
sent Mr.. Rule an "invitation" to meet
him at Dalton, Ga, with the view OF
"discussing" the matter with ''pistols
for two" This invitation Mr.. Rule
manfully declines, upon the ground
that the so-called "Code of Honor" is a
"hcathenish and brutal CUSTOM which
could afford no honorable adjustment of
the difficulty between them. Whatever
might be the result of their meeting,

en- Proiected Raflroads.


A public meeting was never held in
FulasEi burdened with interests 80 inn
posrant and weighty rs the one which
assembled at the Courthouse on Monday
last to consider the great Railroad sys-
TEN which is about TO be thrust upon us.
The project Is not a mere vague idea,
the roads are not dim immaginary lines
drawn across the map, nor have they
been brought into consideration By
manufactured enthusiasm or by the
fchemes of any Interested ring or clique.
They are the natural o6tgrowth Of ne
cessity, the steppings Of great pro-
gressive age, the far-seeing and far
reaching enterprise which links State to
State, city to city, north 10 south, east
70 west, river to river, and ocean to
ocean, It Is perhaps altogether acct
dental that Pulaski and Giles county
happen to be right in the path of these
great arteries, and the center Of their
pulsation. Nevertheless, their projec-
tors have designated our town and c0un-
y as the heart from which these arte-
ries will radiate, daily 10 receive and
send back the big current Of trade and
commerce which viii give to them their
life and vitality. But we are required
TO help. We must give material aid to
these enterprises which are destined to
make as 50 important, as an evidence OF
our desire to see them built. win we
do It? Once we voted tax OF 1875, 900
and paid II in five years 10 build one
road through the county from north to
south. That road has fallen into foreign
hands and has become monopoly. We
paid that tax under very unfOrtuitous
circumstances. The war came upon us
in the midst OF II and made il exceed
ingly burdcnsome. The same cause
stopped the completion Of the road, tore
r. mp, involved il in debt, and made it
what it was never intended to be and
never would have been but for the war,
burden and a monopoly. Now, we
need competing lines to reduce our
freight about 400 per cent. and our fare
about 200, and bring the present engine
Of oppression TO its senses. Every nook
and corner Of the county Is interested
in these roads. We already have one
crossing the county from north to south.
The projected roads win cross the coun-
ty so as TO form an eight pointed star.
One will pass diagonally from n. e. to
5. W., another from n w. TO S. f., and
another from west to east, so as to give
every neighborhood in the county de-
pot. TO secure all Of these roads it viii
probably be necessary for us to raise
only as much as we gave to our present
road, with perhaps an additional hun
dred thousand or so, and twenty or
thirty years to pay it in, instead Of five.
We know this would not be in the least
burdensome to our people, and we feel
confident that all OF them will favor the
enterprise. But more hereafter. Ac-
tull surveys and Estimates viii have to
be made before a definite proposition
can come before the people, and when
this is done we feel sure our people viii
be ready to respond as men who feel the
pulsations of this new era of progress

The Spanish Republic is a source of
Uneasiness at Berlin. The Emperor
now regrets his false step in France,
and is sorry that he did not re-establish
Napoleon or some other monarch, and
accept the payment of a slight indemni-
ty, rather than let things take their
course. He regards the Spanish Repnb-
lie as the consequence of the French Re
public, and is uncertain where the de-
sire for republics will stop.
