HmnlI.Pox Preventive.

land which have baan in footed with small
pox will be pleased to learn that certain
families in Huntsville, Ala, during the
prevalence Of smallpox there, found the
tea of the cimicifuga recemosa, or black
snake root, otherwise known as black po-
hosh to be an efficient preventive of small
poX. DR.. q. d. Norris stated, at a meeting
of the Alabama State Medical Association,
that in the families using the above named
root there occurred no case of smallpox,
though some were exposed to the disease.
DIR. Norris vaccinated the members, but
without effect so long as they continued to
use the black snake root tea. After ceas-
ing to use the tea he again vacclnated
them, when the specific effect of the vac
cine virus was produced.

Mountain Lands.

EDITORS CHRONICLE. There has been
granted by the State of Tennessee, since
January !, 1873, over three hundred thou
sand acres of mountain land to spectators
parties living in Brooklyn, New York,
and Pittsburg, Pa. The land registers
have been doing q thriving business in the
way of issuing and recording grants. Nei-
ther they nor the State officials are respon-
sible for this grand swindling operation in
mountain lands, yet they knew when they
signed these grants that the title vested in
the parties to whom the grants are issued,
are worthless. They say they have no
means of knowing anything about the
lands so granted, that the county survey.
ors make certified copies of the surveys
and entries, which with this oath or Ger.
tificate is sent to the Registers office in
which grants are issued and signed by the
Governor, and consequently the law they
say is complied with.
The question is, who is responsible and
how can stop be put to this
grand highway robbery in real estate
these grants are taken north and sold OF
mortgaged, and consequently, some limo
cent party is injured, and the fair name OF
Tennessee at a low ebb especially in ouI
land titles.
Nearly forty years ago these very same
lands were granted to different parties
some of them on top of each other, anC
more especially in Morgan county. If on
mountain counties receive taxes for all thu
lands granted, they ought to have becom,
very wealthy. If the counties have not
some of her citizens have made enough t.
| make show. Can not some means b
| devised to remedy this or to punish tn
parties responsible for such work?

Vienna EXnnsiiInn.

Commissioner Eaton, of the u. s. Blu
reau of Education, shipped for the Vienna
Exposition on the Supply, which recently
sailed from New York, about three tons Of
contributions, which will show the pro-
gress of education in this country. The lot
consisted OF seventy-five cases, twenty-five
of which were sent from Boston and New
England, and the remaining fifty from va
rious parts of the United States.
The United States ship Guard will sail
on the 10th inst, and will carry still FIR
ther contributions from this Bureau.
1t was designed by the Commissioner to
send q representative from the Bureau had
the appropriation been ample, with in
structions TO make a full and exhaustive
report on all subjects before the Exposition
relating TO educational interests, but from
the reduction made in the House Commit
tee of the Whole, this Is rendered impos
sible.- Washington Dispatch.

GOVERNMENT RAILROADS.

The growing power of railroads, now
daily increasing by cancellations and
combinations of various kinds, is attract
ing the attention of the best minds of the
country. In the transportation of pas
sengers and freights they directly affect
every business interest and the welfare OF
every citizen in the nation. So long as
competition in this business is assured, the
people have some protection against exor-
bitant rates of freight and the reckless dam
gerous transportation of passengers. But
competition has been in so many cases
practically cut off by the consolidation of
rival lines, and combinations against
cheap transportation by competing roads,
that the people find little hope for the fl-
ture from this safeguard. AS q conse-
quence, some of our ablest and best men
have been canvassing the best remedy for
the growing evil. Unless some addi-
tional protection is devised the peo-
pie can not long contend against
the powerful combination of capital
now invested in the railroad business of
the United States. Foremost in the best
of articles discussing this evil we note the
late productions of Chas. Francis Adams
and Josiah Quincy, of Massachusetts.
After deliberately portraying the dangers
to the business of the country from this
evil, they conclude that the surestand most
practical remedy, is for the General Gov
eminent and in some cases for the
states, to buy or construct and
operate at least one trunk line stri-
king the bulk of the transportation bust
ness. By this plan the people would be
sure Of competition. Such roads, operated
in the interests of the State, would serve
TO keep freight rates OF rival lines within
reasonable bounds and thus protect ship
pers against monopoly. They would en-
sure competition, and that, if permanent
and unpurchasable, will always ensure
reasonable prices.
There are objections to this plan, as there
are to every project that looks to the
Government undertaking strictly business
enterprises. But the evil to be remedied
is greater than the evils suggested as in
evitable to the proposed relief. The peo-
pie will not long endure the extortions
and oppression some of the short sighted
railroad corporations are practicing. The
latter hold their franchises at the mercy
of the former. 1t is therefore merely a
question of time and policy. If the mo-
nopoliss extend and increase, the people, in
sheer self defense, must throttle
them. They strike not only at
the monied interests of the people, but al
the purity and very existence of the Gov
eminent. 1t remains with the corpora
tons to Say whether some such plan as
that suggested by Adams and Quincy shall
be carried out. If they persist in their
selfish and suicidal policy, relief must come
and it is more likely to come through
Government railroads than in any other
form.

We paid this place visit and found il
quite thriving little place, we say little,
having population of l, 900 inhabitants,
but it is certainly one.of the largest little
places we have ever been in-being about
one mile and quarter from one extremity,
the depot, to the other, at the mines.
Houses are scattered all along, sometimes
two, three or four side by side, then again
one can be seen here and there solitary and
alone. Altogether, Coal Creek is not a
bad looking place, and in summer time
must be really beautiful. Then again it is
not as immoral place as any one would be
likely to think, considering it being q
mining district The miners are generally
of the better class, quiet and moral men,
who attend religious services when
ever an opportunity is offered them.
A Welsh Church has been erected
and paid for with the exception of few
hundred dollars and there is money
enough in the Church Treasury to liqui-
date the remainder of the debt. Services
are held in this church at stated times by
Rev. r. ID. Thomas, of this city, who is
acting rs their pastor for the present.
The two wings of the Methodist Church
have united for the purpose of erecting IA
church, and the work has been commence
ed. 1t is to be built of solid rock. The
colored Methodists have u neat little frame
church near the mines of the Coal Creek
Company.
Andersonville is small place of dozen
or so houses, near Coal Greek Coal Compa-
ny's mines, and lis properly part of Coal
Creek. There are two or three stores near
the mines and several at the depot, in
which heavy trade is carried on, the
miners generally being very free with
their stamps AS to the mineral wealth
of that country we will speak of it at an
other time. Altogether, we were well
pleased with our visit, and feel under many
obligations to Mr.. Howard Wiley for show
ing us around.

The Wheat Crop.

The pleasant weather of the past week
has set our farmers hard at work. They
are breaking up ground rapidly and are
sowing their oats. The wheat crop looks
well and above an average yield is ex-
pected.-SentineI and Reporter, Greene
UMe.
Our farmers have been busy during the
favorable weather of the last week turning
over the soil for the spring planting. The
winter has rendered earlier blowing about
impossible.
Reports of the wheat crop are much more
favorable lately. Since the cessation of
the cold weather it has vastly improved in
appearance. bristol NetCs.

From a circular of leading business
firm it is learned that the number of mer-
camille failures during the last year were
1909 and the total liabilities 1921 ,056, 900.
This is large increase over the figures OF
1871, which were Failures 2,9l5, and liza
bilities $50, $4,000. In 1870 the failures
were 1851, and the amount of liabilities
,SSS, 242, 900. At the first glance this is an
ugly showing for 1872, but it must be recol-
lected that they are not entirely chargea-
ble to the ordinary casualties of business,

THE TENNESSEE LAND REGISTER

LIE lem EocEc LAND REGISTER
For nearly three years past, has been an
occasional publication, published as the
demand required, and has been issued i'm
book form. Our extensive advertising at
home and abroad has called forth thousands
of inquiries about East Tennessee. and the
opportunities for investment. 1t has been
our custqhp to answer these by circulars
prepared Expressly for the purpose, as well
as by letter. The great cost in labor. post
age, &C., necessary to this is obvious. TIL
thousands of letters received are from all
parts of the United States and Europe,
many of which bear the unmistakable
evidence of coming from the better class of
people who are well to do. but who wisht
find more genial climate away from the
rigorous cold of the northern winters. or
the malaria of the low lands Of the South.
Here they expect to fine that much de-
sired mean where the aUhOLe uedr can be
spent in comparative exclusion from both
heat and cold. But we also have thousands
of inquiries from the Artisan, the Mechan-
ic, the Laborer and the Farmer of scantv
means, many of whom hardly have suffi-
cient means to land them at our doors. and
while they form the great strength of n
community, they must find on their ar
rival immediate employment or suffer for
the common necessaries of life. All these
elements are necessary to develop our MANY
resources, both Agricultural and Mineral.
and to advance our Mechanical Industries.
Capital and labor go hand in hand for the
building up of a country, and our numer-
Gus waste places invite both. What is re-
CURED is specific information, that which
can be relied upon. For the purpose of

The vanderbilt Donation.

Nashville was greatly excited over the
news of Commodore Vanderbilts liberal
gift of $500, 600 for a Southern Methodist
College. The Banner says
The following paragraphs occur in the
charter of the Central University:
The sum of one million of dollars is nee
essary in order TO realize fully the object
desired and not less than five hundred
thousand dollars must be secured as Il con-
dition precedent to the opening of any de-
partment of the University.
The location of the University shall lie
left to the decision of the College of Bish-
ops of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South. The College of Bishops consists of
Bishops Payne, Farley, Wightman, Dog
gett, Keener, Pierce, McTyiere, KaVa-
naugh and Marvin.
The general indication is that the Uni
versity will be located at Nashville. In
fact, no one seems to have any doubt of it,
