We hear of many cases of Diarrhea
Dysentery and other bowel complaints,
caused, we presume, by the sudden change
from winter weather to excessive heat,
with perhaps an immoderate use of UNI
ripe vegetables. DR.. Lytle's Elixir is a
never failing cure for these diseases. No
family can afford to be without it.

BEEF CATTLE.
The business has been light for the past week,
and fat cattle are firm at last quotations. Some
few were shipped from this place and one car
load will be shipped this week, which will close
the shipping for this season. It will, however,
have no effect on the price of fat cattle, as our
city butchers like to handle fat beef and are
willing to pay good prices for fat stock, which
should induce farmers to feed their stock better
and bring none but what is fat to market. We
quote as follows: so1

We understand that specular iron ore
has been found in Cooke county-perhaps
in large quantities. An eminent geologist
is on the track of it, and if matters turn
out as it is hoped they will, another great
impetus will be given to the iron manu-
featuring interest in East Tennessee. The
ore will probably be manufactured at
Knoxville, where it will meet the Cum
berland mountain coal. We are not able
at present to give the particulars. If we
are properly Informed, specular iron ore
The principal American mines are on the
shores of Lake Superior, from whence the
the ore is shipped to Pittsburg, to obtain
coal for its manufacture. The advantage
we will have in regard to shipment in
our own case is at once apparent. This
ore is Of very superior quality, and de-
velopments soon to take place looking to
proof of its existence in large quantities
in our midst, will be watched with great
anxiety. ---.
stolen Steer.
In Sundays issue under the above head
we gave an account of a steer being sold in
this city for $40, and expressed the opin-
ion that it had been stolen. Yesterday we
were very forcibly strengthened in our
opinion by the appearance of Mr.. r. w.
CrOWSOn, OF SEWER county, who proved
his property and started home with the
same. He informed us that one of the
young men who stole the steer, Andrew
Lindsay, by name, had been raised within
four miles of his place, while the other, JEFF
fry by name, had come in that neighbor-
hood some weeks back from Knoxville or
its vicinity, and had been staying with
Lindsay. Officer Holt, and Sharp, the man
who purchased the steer, were in pursuit
of the rogues yesterday, and it is expected
they will be safe in their hands by this
morning. rs aEBfEAH

A COIOred IHOuSe-Burner and
Murderer 90 be Hung.
From the Meridian Gazette.


October 81, 1871. negro named Ned Bea-
son, who lived about six miles from here on
the old Daleville road, was murdered by
some one, who pulled off a board from the
cabin and shot him through the crack.
Ned's wife extinguished the light, pulled a
loose plank up in the floor and made her es-
cape, leaving her two little children In the
cabin, which the murderer set nre to and
the little children persisted In the flames. 1t
was reported that Ku-kluxes had done this,
which was sufficient TO arouse the military
then stationed here A squad OF soldiers
went out to the scene Of the outrage, but
finding that the guilty party was not white,
so far az could be ascertained, the govern
ment dropped the pursuit OF the criminal.
On the 5th of October, Sheriff Mosely ar
rested Anderson Lewis, a copper-colOred
negro, who had before borne a good char
acter, as the perpetrator OF the atrocious
deed. The evidence was strong against
him, and all came from his cOlored neigh
bors. He has had two trials and convictions,
and, finally. the Supreme Court has affirmed
the Judgment and ordered the execution OF
the sentence. which Is, that he be hanged on
Friday, the 25th Of July.
