witness the marriage Of one of the best
young ladies of this ciiy-Miss Mary Ann

young gentleman of excellent character.
The happy couple were waited upon by the
following gentlemen and ladies:
Mr.. John d. Smith and Miss Mary Phil

Mr.. John EgAn and Miss Julia Farrell.
Mr.. David 81. Kean and Miss Maggie
Mssterson.
Mr.. III. j. Smith and Miss Lizzie McKeon.
Mr.. P. ii. Morris and Miss Ella Harde.
man.
The ladies, of course, looked beautiful,
and were richly but chastely dressed, while
their gallsnts were appropriately clad and
looked happy as the most fastidious could
desire. The church was brilliantly lighted
and the ceremony was performed by Right
Rev. P. A. Feehan, Bishop of Nashville.
After the ceremony, the bridal marty and a
host of friends proceeded to the residence
Of the BRIDES parents, where all enjoyed
themselves heartily until the "wee sma'
hours syant the twal." May God bless the
twain made one with long and happy life.

Cotton as Currency.

The following communication was sent
to the President of the an shville Board of
Trade" on the 10Th inst, but was not re-
ceived by him until yesterday, owing to his
absence from the city. Similar communi-
cations, we understand, were sent to Louis
vile, Cincinnati and other cities. The
suggestion is good one, and we believe
has been generally acted upon since the
financial difficulties commenced, by nearly
all of our merchants. We are informed by
one of our large cotton dealers that there is
now no difficulty in selling cotton in this
market for ''greenbscks" at the market
price:
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. is, 1S73.-R.
G. Hensley, Esq, President Chamber of
Commerce, Nashvile-Dear Sir: If an
arrangement could be made by which our
dealers would accept cotton in payment
for produce shipped South, think it might
help trade considerably.
Would like you to bring the idea before
your Board and advise me of result.
Your very truly,

conduct calculated TO put in frightfut jeop-
ardy the peace and qu:etude of the city.
At the present writing the disorderly Kate
lsnguishes at the workhouse.
Sarah Washington is a charming girl.
PITY she swears. The five dollars she left
in the hands of the court, yesterday, would
have been quite sufficient to purchase belt
buckle the size of q door plate, a half peck
of ornamental dress buttons to match, and
she would have had enough to contribute
handsomely in aid of the Memphis suffer-
ers. But Sarah has a right to manage her
financial matters to suit herself, AM if she
is fond of paying five dollar fines at regular
intervals for the privilege Of nsing vulgar
language on the streets of this city, there is
nothing in the constitution of the United
States, or that of the State of Tennt ssee
which D ohibits her indulgiDg her little
eccentricity.

APREYENTIVE.

While in every State laws are multiplied
indefinitely providing for the punishment
of defaulters and officers proved recreant
to their trust, Maryland has gone to the
root CT the matter, and besides providing
laws for the punishment of lspses in Office,
has also taken measures to prevent
their occurrence. She has acted upon
the theory that it is easier to prevent
than to cure. BY law each officer in ar
rears In his &C cunt thirty days before
election must furnish an account OF arrear-
ages, or the Comptroller advertises him IN
the newspapers as a defaulter. For the last
two weeks the Maryland papers have been
full of such notices, and startling amount
of official negligence or wrong doing has
been exposed. There are 200 officials short
in their accounts with an aggregate dehcien-
CIV of $35O,000. The law works well in
keeping defaulters from reelection, for out
of 1874 only II are now in Office.
