Death or a Pioneer.

Elizabeth Cox, wife Of one of our Oldest
citizens, Archibald Cox, departed this life
on the 24th of the present month, at the
residence of her husband on the Nolensville
pike, some three miles from Nashville.
Mrs. Cox sprang from that noble stock of
pioneers who took such an active part in
our revolutionary war. Her father was q
relative of John Adams; her mother was
Kirkwood. These names will be handed
down with pride for ages to come. When
Mrs. Cox's mother was young gill, she
spent large portion Of her time in making
cloth with her own hands and knitting
socks for the poorly clad and barefooted
soldiers. After peace was made and indie
perdence gained, she became the wife of
Martin Adams. Soon after their marriage,
which took place in the State
of Virginia, the rich and fertile
land of the Territory of Kentucky
drew thousands of immigrants. Mr..
Adams with bis young wife were among
the early settlers. They settled near what
was afterwards called Boone's Lick. Here
Mrs. Cox was born in blockhouse. A
volume might be written Of their hardships
at this period, but iorbear. Mrs. Cox had
no opportunities of an early education; but
naturally possessed of a strong mind she
rose to an eminence in society that any lady
should be proud OF. During her girlhooa
her parents moved TO Tennessee. Here she
becam3 the wife of Archibald Cox. As q
wife, she was sfectionate, dutiful, and one
OF the most domestic women the writer
ever knew. During her long, eventful life,
she never was known to say an unkind
word of any one. Her Veracity was never
doubted. Truth was one of her noble
characteristics. Honesty of purpose through
her whole life was a principle that was
sacred with herself and admired by all who
knew her.
When death came she met IL like hero
inc. She left behind the endearing conso-
lation TO her husband and friends, that she
had gone to rest with her God in better
world. We laid her away near the spot
where she had resided for more than sixty
years. The day was very inclement, but
large concourse attended the funeral. 1t Is
to know her exact age, as the
record has been lost. S. P. ABEET.

APropored Nuisance.

An effort will be made by few interest
ed parties to secure the repeal of the ordi-
nance prohibiting the sale of live stock on
the public square, at the next meeting of
The City Council. 1t is 10 be hoped the eff
fort will prove signal failure. Our city is
dropping, one by one, the customs and
ways of villages, and the best citizens o.:
Nashvile--tbose interested in her perma-
nent prosperity and material advancement
protest against any retrograding meas
ures. Selling hors s, mules, cattle, ETC., at
auction on the public square will do very
well for Brentwood or DogtowD, but such
business is decidedly out of place in cities
like Nashville, where there is 70 lack of
sale stables.

To the Union and American:
1t was announced in yesterdays issue Of

School Director for the Thirteenth district,
to fill the vacancy caused by the death of
B. Hynes. If the sag so and arrogation Of

must confess there was one; but the citizens
of the Thiri eenth do not relish one man
election and pronounce said election null
