To the Union and American:
It was our good fortune to be delayed
three hours at this beautiful village, q sta
tion on the Louisville and Nashville and
Great Southern Railroad, nine miles from
the city. The town is improving rapidly,
and presents the appearance of thriving
village. Its woolen mill is doing a fine
business, and the othsr industries of the
place are in such thriving condition that
the inhabitants actually propose to con-
struct a narrow gauge railway from their
burgh 10 Nashville, in order that they may
rid themselves Of the extortion practiced
upon them by the n. Il D. r. R., now in
the grip of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad. II the narrow gauge railway pro-
jected to Brentwood should prove sue
cess, it will be continued to Huntsville,
Alabama, and viii thus open up region of
country rich in agricultural resources and
mineral wealth, and will also furnish a
route to Nashville from North Alabama, by
which the farmers and planters of that Sec
ton may visit the capital of the State OF
Tennessee at a reasonable rate of fare, as
safely, comfortably, and at as great a rate
Of speed as by the old, reliable and expen-
sive n. q D., Of twenty years ago aRd to-
day.
The great want of Tennessee at this
time is perfect system of narrow gauge
railways, connecting the capital with every
important city, town, ore bank, coal mine
and quarry. When the ore, cotton and
coal can be transported cheaply 10 the CEN
ter OF population, then the capital and en-
terprise will be forthcoming to erect man
ufactories in this most favored quarter OF
our country. MARROW GAUGE.

LOST OCCUPATIONS.
what Our FOrefathsrs Did For Liy-

ing.
Half century ago bellows. making was
a thriving trade. Every house had It's pair
of below and in eSerJ well-furnished man
sion there was pair hung by the side OF
every fireplace. Ipswich, in Massachusetts,
ACQUIRED quite 2 notoriety all over New
England for the elegant and substantial art
icles of the kind il produced. But as stoves
aud CRATES took the place of open tireplsces,
and as coal was substituted for wood, the
demand for bellows diminished until the
business as a separate trade quite died out.
The same is true of flint cutting. Flnts
were once necessary, not only for nre-arms
but for tinder-bOXes, and tlnder-DoX was
as Necessary for every house as grldlron
or skillet. Every one who looks to child
hood of forty odd years ago must remember
the cold winter mornings when the per-
sistent crack of the flint against the steel
sent up from the kitchen an odor OF lgnl-
ting tinder and sulphur which pervsded the
house. have no more idea what became
of the flint producers than the old man OF
sorrowful memories VINO, three or 1our
times a week, called at our door with Drlm-
stone matches for sale at cent the haI
dozen punches. Both have been as COM
nletely banished from England and New
England as have the red Indians and the
Druids.
Then. again, are gone the pin-makers,
who, though they may have been ID their
graves this quarter of century, still figure
in lectures and essays to illustrate the ad
yantages of division of labor. Instead OF
a min taking a dozen men to cut, grind,
point. head, polish and what not, as II
used to do, pins are now made by neat
little machines, at the rate Of three hun
dred a minute, of which machines single
| child attends to half dozen.
Nail making at the forge is another lost
| industry. Time was, and that in this
| nineteenth century, when every nail was
| made on the anvil. Now, from one hum
dred to one thousand nails per minute are
| made nv machines. The mailer who works
at the forge has but bad chance in com
peling with such antagonists; and would
| have no chance at all were it not that his
nails are ten-fold tougher than the former
AS it is the poor men follow an all 0u'
| hopeless vocation, and are condemned IC
live in continual hand-grips with poverty
In the DAYS of Presidents Madison anC
Monroe, and even later, straw oonnet-maK
ing was practiced in every middle clas'
house where there were growing families
and straw plating formed the staple of do
meslic leisure work. At my grand
fathers, around the huge kitchen fireplace

A Response from the Railways.

They Propose to Flank the Farmers.
NEW YORK, May 15.-At the meeting OF
the Railroad Association Of America to-day,
Mr.. Allen said the railroad system is
becoming so complicated that in order to
secure harmony of action, some plan ct
agreement must be perfected. II absentees
are not able to attend they should help the
Association with their advice and submit
plans, reports and statistics for their proper
guidance. There had been great question
brought up by the farmers and producers OF
the West in regard to cheap transportation
rates. How were they going to meet it?
They must flank it, by eccording to them as
much as possible without damaging their
own interests. Some persons held that
railways were open highways for them, to
be used as they might be pleased, and this
question had also to be met By them. 1t
was to meet such questions as these that
this Convention had been called, and also
to secure as low rates as possible without
inf citing any injury upon themselves. The
President begged the members OF the Asso-
citation to give their undivided attention to
the subjects laid before them. A "a
