ANOTHER CARD FROM HOBBS.
lie Admitted that He Sold His omce, but
did it for Fun. (?) arg#. ...
WAYERLY, Aug. Is, 1873.

..r, WAvERLY, Aug. Is, 1878.
To the Union and A81eriedn &: ..l.. ..
For the comprehension of the editor Of
the Nashville Bulletin, who fails TO see in
nav card published few days since sulli-
cient denial of certain charges made by
him, allow me through your columns to
state most positively that never received
Sl2, 900 for the office of Comptroller, as an
inducement to resign it from any source or
in any way nor was / brought to resign
it by pecuniary considerations paid or
promised me. l resigned the office to the
proper authority under the Constitution
and laws of the State, and thus returned it
to the people. | did this without hint or
intimation of any character passing one
way or the other, directly or indirectly,
between me and the appointing power as
to who would be my successor. | had no
hint or intimation that Col. Burch would
be appointed, and did not expect that he
would be. What | may have said at any
time about selling out,' was said in man.
ifest Jest TO those who were at the time rail-
lying and questioning me about reSgning,
and the rumors and conjectures aflOat to
the effect that had sold, and telling me
what L ought to have gotten, if / didn't,
(for it seems the minds of men in these
days are prone to look for the sale and pur-
chase of offices from the many examples
given by the Bulletins party, from the
Chief Executive of the nation down. and
l may have said l got $4,000, $4,000 or
$4,000, or any other sum, but such state
ments We're intended in jest, and so under
stood by those to whom made.
Having said this much on the subject, L
am done, at least until the pending litiga-
tion growing out of my Comptroilership Is
ended / will dignity the BuLtetjya's clam
oring with no further notice. A discrimi-
mating public will see in it all only an at
tempt on the part of the Bulletin to pro-
mote the interest of the party which has
been turned out of place and power in this
State for stealing the school fund andbank-
rupting the State treasury by its eXtrava-
gance and corruption l will stand ready
for a fair investigation of the matter when
ever demanded by the proper authorities.
Very respectfully, w. W. HOBBS,

Rogersville. He has some of the purest |
and best Jersey stock In the South. His |
purchases have been made from Mr.. Sharp |
less, near Philadelphia, and they haye all
been of the purest and best breed. He
has now herd of four bulls and five cows.
Three of the former and two of the latter
are young. He lately received two heifers
by express, the equal Of any in the South.
MIR. Beal has also some of the purest
Chester White hogs, which many of our
readers saw at the last Eastern Division
Fair. He has done great deal for the
stock raisers of East Tennessee and de-
serves their encouragement and support
He proposes to bring his Jersey stock and
his hogs to our October Eastern Division
Fair when our people will have an oppor-
tunity to see for themselves how far our re-
port of them holds out
Among the horse men of the county,
Mr.. A. b. Melendy deserves mention.
He has done great deal towards improv-
ing the horses of Hawkins and his horse
Dandy Jack, will have at our coming fair
some of the finest young colts in the State.
He has prepared fine driving track on
his farm, and advertises to train horses
| and colts for the saddle or harness at rea-
sonable prices.
Hawkins can boast of as fine cattle,
! horses and hogs as any coonty in the
! State, and has generally led her rivals at
y
we saw we think our farmers intend TO
keep their lead. s& ns
| The farming of the county is often OF
| the best. Mr.. Cbas. Mckinney has one OF
the largest and best farms in the county,
which some good Northern farmer might
lease for term of years on good terms.
Mr.. Beal and his father own good farms
| Mr.. Henry Lutz is good farmer. Mr.
Jno. ID. Riley, an old East Tennessean, is
fully alive to the improvements of the day
in farming implements and knows how
to raise good crops Messrs Wiley d. and
ID. w. Miller and w. A. Phillips, near
Yellow Store have fine farms. Messrs
VIM. Il. CormaclS, Robert A. Hounshel
and John j. Hayter are wide awake farm
ers. Postmaster Smith, at Whitesburg
has one of the best upland grass farms w
have is country. He keeps his farm, il
fine condition and ought to be able to max
some good speeches in farmers Club, j
can talk as good as he can farm.
If some if our Northern readers coult
look upon these farms, upon the rich bot
toms, beautiful valleys, clear pure spring
and the towering hills of Hawkins county
rich in fine timber and marble, they woul
not linger long in their ice and snoN
bound homes in the distant North.

Down at Last.

The old court house is down at last
PROSTATE with the earth-a heap of broken
brick, dirt and rubbish. 1t is a melan-
choly sight, and we saw several of our
venerable country friends, on Monday,
gazing at the pile in sadness, and weeping
like exiled Marius DER the ruins Of Car
thage. The court Eouse was erected in
1928, and has stood the battle and the
breeze for full half century. The first
brick building erected in Athens is that
where our clever Postmaster, Mr.. Sehorn,
now lives, and the first building of any
sort in the town was pine pole cabin on
what is now known as the Crawford Cor
ner, in which George Morgan sold goods.

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.
LOST TINE MADE UP IN ETERNITY,
Reckless Disregard of Human Life by
Railway officials.
Frightfui Collision on the chicago and Az
ton Road.

CHICAGO, Aug. lS-The blame for the
Chicago and Alton accident attaches to the
engineer and conductor of the coal train,
who moved contrary to regulations. They
have both disappeared. .....
Later accounts state that the train start
ed from Willow Station according to the
best evidence, ten minutes behind time,
and as is customary on this road to make
up lost time, doubtless the rate of
speed was somewhat accelerated.
Where the CuIpabiIity Commenced.
The conductor and engineer knew they
were to pass train at Lemont, seven miles
distant, hut unhappily that train did not
wait as 1t should have done, but came on
toward the passenger train, expecting to
make Willow Station. 1t was a race for
life. The conductor and engineer of the
coal train knew that the passenger train,
! laden with precious lives was in front and
! if they did not reach the switch by a GER
tain time collision was inevitable.
L. Into The Jaws Of Death r. ID. ...
] Both trains were rushing towards their
destruction, as they flew over the iron rail
through the darkness with speed increas-
ling at every revolution of the wheels
there were three conclusions, first when the
engingins met and.were destroyed; second
when the baggage cars struck and was
smashed into fragments, and third, when
the smoking car collided and leaped in the
air alighting on the fractured boiler of the
freight engine. The remains of the pas
senger train engine were thrown from the
track towards the east and SO were the re-
mains of the baggage car
ScaIded 10 Death.
Then came hesmoking car on top of tn,

burstopen by the force with which i
struck the wheels remaining on the track
and there it stood ut an angle of thirty
degrees, with passengers imprisoned il
broken iron and wood while deadly stean
came up with terrific force from the boile
, below, scalding those whom it touched, in

most excruciating agony. One moment wa

About the ComptrolIership.

In view ofthe great charges made against ex-
Comptroller Hobbs, to fhe effect that he had
sold his office for $l2 coo, the allegations con-
tanned in the following court of the declaration
filed in the suit of j, w. Wormack, one of
Hobbs clerks, will throw some light upon it.
1t shows what Wormack thought of the trans
action:

he, the said Deft. being in need of clerical SER
vice, in consideration of the services to be ren>
dered by plaintiff in the Office of Comptroller

suance of the said contracts and agreement,
broke up and quit his profession, to-wit, the
practice of law in the county of Warren, and re-
moved TO Nashville at a great expense, to-wit,
the sum of-dollars, thereby quitting and sac
rifcing his regular and lucrative business TO
comply with his contract which he had made
with the said Hobbs and in which he agreed TO
serve him in the capacity Of first Clerk in the
Comptroller office for and during the term OF
