The Cincinnati southern Road.

We see by dispatch from Cincinnati
that the Kentucky Court of Appeals has
at last decided the claims of the contest
ants to the Covington and Lexington Rail
road, which is to be, in all probability, part
of the Cincinnati Southern line. The suit
has been pending for many years. Hon.
Geo. III. Pendleton, an uncle of the Bowler
heirs, has been one of the parties to the
suit. The decision will relieve the trus-
tees of the Cincinnati road of some embar
easements. The dispatch says:
1.-THE Kentucky Court of Appeals have
rendered decision in the celebrated case
of the Covington and Lexington Railroad
Company against The Heirs and Admin
istrators of r. B. Bowler and others, who
since 1859, have held the road by virtue of
purchase at sales decreed by the Fayette
Circuit Court, to satisfy the trustee of the
second mortgage bonds. ,
The decision of the court is that the
heirs of Bowler do not hold the road in
their own right, but as trustees of the
railroad company, and that commissioners
appointed by the proper court shall adjust
the claims between Bowler's heirs and the
company from the date of the transfer in
1859 to the date of the restoration of the
road to the Covington and Lexington
Company. The decision of the court was

Music I'm Knoxville.

Good music-so earnestly desired so sell
dom found-has in the city of Knoxville
many warm supporters. True, there is not
that heartfelt devotion to the cause which
we ought to expect, for there is no pleasure
which in itself is SO ennObling and eleva-
ting in its tendency, SO easy to obtain and
which fingers with us so late in life IS the
love of music, but we rejoice to state good
music is better sustained in Knoxville than
in almost any city in the South. The Phil
harmonic Society, numbering about sixty
active members, under the leadership of
Prof. Knabe, has well rendered to appreci-
alive audiences some of the most difficult
productions in the whole repertory of song.
AS matter of course such practice cult
Yates the taste of all who participate or
listen thereto, and has decided influence
in raising the standard to higher emil
nence in the community than it would
otherwise attain. Prof. Knabe is entitled
to great praise for his untiring efforts in
this direction. Through many discourage
ments and years of toll he has lived to see
his favorite notions of music adopted and
instead of the sentimental love ditties of
modern days there is now demand for
the grand harmonies of the old masters.
We welcome the day.-The Record. ,la7s9
