a Grange Reunion,

One of the most delightful reunions of
the holiday season was the Grange meeting
that took place at Temperance Hail, on
Whites Creek, on Friday last. The entire
ncighborhoOd turned out, and the hall was
crowded with ladies and gentlemen. The
meeting was called to order by DR.. Kirk
patrick, and the exercises opened with an
eloquent and finished speech from our for
mer Congressman, w. w. Vaughan, which
was listened to throughout with the greatest
interest. Then the nOble-hearted ladies
came forward and cmptied their well-tilled
baskets on the tables prepared, and around
that festive board, loaded down with
everything that was paiatable and relishing,
an hour was spent in discussing the good
things spread ont in such bountiful supply.
After dinner, Dr.. Lee, agricultural editor
of the UNION AND AMERICAN, was intro
duced TO the audience, and in well-timcd
speech entertained his hearers for upwards
of three-quaItcrs Of an hour, his remarks
being full of sound logic and cogent rea-
soning. DR.. Lee was followed by j. 0. Grif-
fifth. of the Rural SIM, who addressed those
present particul&lyup the beauties Of the
Oranges. and the benefits derived from be-
inc member. He handled his subject
with ease, and showed conclusively that he

i Msttcr deserving Of Atteg tiq,s

To the Union and American:
| wish to call the attention of the proper
authorities to the condition of Broad street,
Just beyond the Chattanooga railroad The
track OF the street ears IS laid eNaetiy in
the middle Of the street, but as the street
has only been filled up on one side, it
leaves the other (north) side a steep en-
bankment OF some 10 or 20 feet and down
which car may at any time be precipi-
tatGd. hase seen Inc car jump the track
and come within few inches of going
over. And at another time, some two or
three weeks ago, the car fell half way down
the embankment. Fortunately no one was
in it at the time. Sooner or later one of
them full of people will tumble down the
hillside, as they are always driven at
rapil speed dugn this grade, and then
somebody, either the company or the city,
will have bill to pay for broken limbs, to
say nothing Of broken cars. SO let us have
Broad street at this point filled up imme-
diately.

DeliSsitful.

One of our chief pleasures Christmas is
to see the dear little ones happy. Our
Sabbath School managers display noble
charity in their efforts to gladden. the hearts
of the little folks, especially those children
whom fortune has not favored. The
christmas Tree" the FESTIVAL and Con
cert dispense joy and gladnesS to many
hearts that otherwise would feel neglected
and sad.
Elm street Sabbath School had joyous
time Christmas day. In the morning two
teachers presented them with a magnificent
library containing $50 volumes. And Santa
Claus, in the midst of joyous song, strobe
in shaking a bag of silver coin above his
head, greeted as might be expected, with a
rapturOuS cry of delight, and before we
could comprehend his intentions, he placed
a bright silver quarter i'll the hand Of each
child as Christmas gift.
At night the school gave free enter
tainment to their friends, which passed off
feicitOusly with the exception Of little
alarm caused by a fire near by.
This school is doing a noble wOrk-they
not only teach Bible truths, but following
its precepts, are clothing the naked and
feeding the hungry.
They have on the roll of this school al,
of Which number 3S7 were in attendance
last Sunday morning.
We learn they intend giving one of their
delightful entertainments next Tuesday
night for the benefit of the poor, and as il
is truly missionary school, we trust they
will be literally supported by not only the
immediate friends of the school, but by all
phlanthropic citizens.

The Atlanlic Monthly ranks very high
among American periodicals. Il has for
its contributors some of the ablest writers
in this country. The criticism of recent
literature and art Ga standing department)
is very full and good. The contributions
to the JANUARY number are varied and in
teresting, being discussions of such sub
iects as English feld-sport, local taxation,
and evolution of species, besides liberal
contributions to the light literature OF the
day. The paper on Evolution and Per-
manence of Type was written by Prof.
Agassiz in refIItation of Darwin's theory of
descent, and origin .of species. Agassiz,
with all his learning, was never
converted to materialism. The disciples of
the materialistic school availed themselves,
without stint, of his researches, in support
of their theories, but he would never be in
duced to follow them in their deductions.
His paper in the -Atqgltic is very brief. but
it defines his position and brings ont the
more important arguments against Oar
wins theories. Agassiz' position is that
taken by most scientists. He saws: s.The
world has arisen in some way or other.
How it originated is the great question,
and Darwin's theory, like all other
attempts to explain the origin of
life, is thus far merely c0niectlIral.
l believe he has not even made
the best conjecture possible in the
present state of our knowledge. The more
look at the great complex of the animal
world, the more sure do feel that we have
not yet reached its hidden meaning, and
the more do | reg ret that the young and
ardent spirits Of our day give themselves to
speculation rather than to close and accu-
rate Investigations He states all the
great objections to Darwin's theory and
puts forth from his vast store of knowledge
the stubborn facts which are irreconcileable
with tTansmutatiOn Of species. These refill
tations are not new, but they come from
one having authority to teach. 1t is uni
versal benefit that Prof. Agassiz spoke on
this subject, however, meagerly, before he
died. The atlantic is published by HOugh-

given by this club, took place al the resi-
dencc of Maj. Van j. Mclver, South Spruce

joyable occasion il has not been our pleas
urc to attend for some time. Many of
NaShvillc's most beautiful and charming Ia
dies and gallant knights were present, and
all seemed impressed with the idea that it
was an event long 10 be remembered. Never
have we seen young folks enter into the

engaged. the hours sped swiftly past until
supper was announced. The party were
ushercd into the brilliantly lighted dining
hall where collation. such as is only got

lady, was served in the best style. All
present were loud in their praise Of Mr..

the still night air TO our hearing was, long

A SISTER PROSTITUTES HER BRO
THEIRS FOR MURDER,

The Columbia Herald and Mail of Dec.
% says: w. ). and SambO Cook, brothers.
now in the Columbia Jail, charged with the
murder of Mr.. Short, in Marshall county,
were recently arrested in Ellis county,
Texas. The prisoners are brothers, aged
respectively about twenty-five and twenty
three yers. Some three or four years ago
sister of these boys lived with an uncle
in Marshall county, Tenn. being left or
phans in their childhood, Tho sister grew
up to wOmanhOod, and became quite pretty
and accomplished. She had lover, a very
worthy young man, but against whom by
her uncle, who was man of strong preiu-
dices. the most unbOunded hatred existed.
The young people had tried to gain his CON
sent to their union, but he swore relentless
ly against it. Finally the young people
determined to marry anyway. The bride
groom came on horseback, and a clandes-
tine elOpement was effected; but they had
hardly ridden out of sight before
the unfeeling uncle, having ascertain
cd the fact, had his nephews TO
arm themselves and mount, and pursue in
hot haste, the fugitives. They overlook
them on the road and shot him from his
horse; then turning, they fled and left the

wounded. At this stage of affairs, Justice
of the peace rode up, and the young man
having procured license prior to MS visit
to the house OF his beloved, at her request
the marriage was consumnated, and she
received at the same time the orange bios
som OF the bride and the weeds and distress
of the widow, for with the same breath
that Inc vowed to love and cherish his spirit
took its flight to the unseen shores.
The murdcrers fled into Mississippi, but
were soon after captured and brought back
81 Tennessee. Sometime after Jail deliv-
was effected, and they made their es-
cape again, and have been at large until
their second and present capture, The sister
of the murderers and widow of theirvictim
is now the prosecuting witness. The muir
derers were brought TO the Marry county
iail. and placed there for safe keeping, TO
await their trial at Lewisburg, Marshall

a Big Gathering.

The residence Of Mr.. Hopstetter Of the
Fourth District of this county, was taken
completely by storm on Friday night last,
the young folks in the neighborhoOd being
out in full force. \ good band Of music
was in attendance, and from o'clock i'll
the evening until daylight next morning
good cheer prevailed, and the rousing log
fires which made everything 50 cheerful
within was in striking contrast with the
snow and bleak winds without. Mr.. Hop
stetter's farm is located between Cumber-
land and Stones river and is one OF the
finest in the county. He is noted for rails
ing fine stock, and in the item Of short
horned cattle, can show seventy head that
can't be beat in the bluegrass region of
Kentucky.

20 have to state that the object of his mis-
sion to our ncighboring State of Alabama
has not been fully complied with, since he
comes back without his charming bride, the
belle OF Selma, whose presence here was so
much hoped tor~by her many admirers.
