dock for the arrival of the propeller, found
that other persons there were awaiting the

that they were detectives sent to carry Mad

To the Union and American:
1 doutt not every thoughtful reader OF
your appeal in behalf of good hospital for
Nashville, is ready to endorse every word
you have written on the subject. All who
have any pride in their city, and especially
all who are actuated by humane and liberal
feelings, must desire city hospital that is
worthy of the name. Bus there seems to
be some difference of opinion as to the style
and management of such an institution.
Some are pressing the city government to
accept the offer of the old Medical College
building, under twenty years. lease, with
the sgreement to erect new building for
the faculty, etc, at an expense OF $l5, 900.
Others are in favor of purchasing a lot
and putting thereon a building that may
serve as wing to large fine hospital, to
be completed as the needs Of the city may
demand, and its funds warrant in the
future.
That the citizens of Nashville, who ere to
pay for whatever hospital shall be establish
ed, may rightly understand the questions
at issue, wish to make a few inquiries
calling for information.
l. What guaranty is offered the city,
that the faculty Of the Medical College, who
have possession of the old building and
grounds, under lease from the University
Board, will so fulfill the conditions of that
lease that the city will have, as proposed,
the undisturbed use of the old building for
a period of twenty years?
2. Are the conditions of the lease from
the University Board such as to warrant the
medical faculty in sub-leasing to the city
their buildings for conversion into public
hospital?
8. What guaranty will there be that,
when the lease expires under which the
medical faculty now hold possession of the
premises, any benefits slslI come to the
city from all its large outlsy upon build
ings, etc?
4. Has the University Board agreed to
endorse or ratify tbs twenty year suitcase
now offered to the city by the medical fac
ulty?
Perhaps these questions have been duly
considered by the City Attorney, and settled
in the committee of the Board of Common
Council befo:e they reported the bill of
Sept. Il.
The above inquiries are submitted with
no lack of confidence in the business integ-
rity of the gentlemen, composing the medi-
cal faculty, but to elicit information which
your readers, interested in the founding of
a good hospital, have right to possess.
INQUIRER,

Hog. or No Hog.

Our citizens viii besr in mind that they
VIII have an opportunity of expressing their
minds with regard to the hog nuisance, at
The ballot box next Saturday. The pro-
gresslve element in this city predominates,
and we trust that element will be well rep
resented at the polls. People who are de-
sirous OF converting Nashville into a hog
pasture, bad better gather their swine to-
gether and move out into the country,
which is the proper place for men of that
stamp. Such men are ont of piece in a
city, and are in the way of better class, as
they fail to realize the objects to be attained
by building up city.
DO not il to turn out next Saturday and
express your opinion regarding the bog bus
mess.

A Word to Working People of Both
Sexes.-Mechanics, artisans, factory hands,
and people who labor for a living, find it
very difficult, if not impossible, to keep the
hands free from stain. Hand SaDoliO will
not only remove every particle OF stain, and
what is called 'EgIained in dirt" but it will
also keep the skin soft and pliable, REM er-
ing the muscular action as quick and easy
as is the case with those who do not per-
form hand labor. 1t is only 10 and 10 cents
2 cake, according to sizs. Every mechanic
should use it constantly in place of all other
soaps. sep20 dlR&W1s

MRS. GILLELAND.

Her Husband Institutes Suit for
Divorce.
Our readers are familiar with the history
of Mrs. Eliza Gilleland, who, it was alleged
had been seduced to this city by one Alice
Cromwell, the evidence in which case be-
fore the committing court having already
been published. We also published the fact
some ten days ago of Gilleland writing a
letter to Capt. Yater, in which he took &C.
casion, nctwithstaD ding the domestic rela-
tons existing between himself and wife, to
bear testimony TO her virtue and innocence
from the charges attempted to ne brought
against her. Stree that letter was written,
however, the husband hiss instituted suit
for divorce from his wife in the Circuit
Court of Davidson county, and a subpoena
forwarded 10 the sheriff of this county has
been served upon Mrs. G. In this petition
ior divorce, Gileland complains that his
wife left his bed and board without cause,
and that her elopmeut was concocted be-
tween MIN. Swayne and herself. The pro-
ceedings in the suit now pending have been
attended with considerable interest, and all
will be anxious to see what defence Mrs. G..
makes to this last charge. Those who have
with her so far will of course
be anxious to see her come eff victorious.

IN Indiana it has been judicislly decided
that the purchase offs railway ticket is also
a purchase of seat in the car. Other
wise, we suppose, a notice should be given
TO the purchaser that no seat could be fur
nished. In this case the purchaser refused
to give phis ti.ket until he was furnished
with seat. His request was not needed,
and it was in evidence that it could not be
complied with in consequence of the crowd
ed condition of the car. The passenger was
therefore elected, bis baggage being thrown

covered s., 1000.
