crease from that source with very little inter
ruption until the full volume Of the June
make shall press upon the market. The
tendency, therefore, is now downward
slowly, steadily and naturally, to pointl a
which the summer make OF western can be
moved into home or export consumption,
and the basis reached upon which the whole
crop will begin to be handled and from
which no further decline is likely to be seen.
From this time forward, as noted in our last,
western will begin and continue TO con
troll the market until the supply
shall be insufficient for the demand, and
state must take a secondary place until such
time shall arrive, except so far as the fall
trade is concerned, 1t being controlled by
supplies with state and nearby make prin-
cipally. Yet even this trade, which Is re-
garded as wholly secured for state butter, is
finding out the fallacy of the old prejudice,
that nothing good could come out OF the
west. Last season there were Michigan
creameries sold in pals the whole season
on this market at the the full price of Orange
county pals, and there will be more OF them
this year. Bot still the bulk OF this supply
must come from this state for the present.
AS to state tubs, both half firkins and Welsh,
they are already settling down to the prices
of western, and it is doubtful If there will be
much difference in the prices until the
weather becomes so warm as to operate In
favor of those sections nearest market.-N.

COUNTRY PRODUCE.

The prices below are those OF j. K. Budd
A Co and such as they stand by for this week.
They say butter is coming forward freely, the
season being at hand when nnr western mar
kets generally break, and shipments are direct
ed East; receipts are increasing daily and The
market Is decidedly in the buyers favor, no of
fer beng refused by dealers at the present time,
as every hour almost brings decline in prices;
no doubt shippers and dealers in the country
will experience the same difficulty in fighting
prices down, as they always do in the spring of
the year; we advise them to get prices down as
speedily possible in the country, in order to
avoid heavy losses, which certainly will befail
some one soon. Buyers are very particular,
and have many objections as to quality; the cry
is for ssgrass" butter, but as the season is unu-
sually late, very little or none has yet been on
on the market, HffHHHfr

NEW WATER-WORKS.
The water.Tax Collector Says They
should be Built, aud Gives His Rea-
sons Therefor.


In conversation with a gSIQS ASp
AMERICAN reporter, yesterday, Mr., Glenn,
Water-Tax Collector, stated that tue water
works are proving entirely insufficient to
supply the demand now made upon them,
and that residents of the higher portions of
the city had told him they would not pay
their full tax, as they were unable to get
Yater tie greater portion of the time, and
the difficulty is being increased by the lay
ing down of Wat6r piIe in dlstFicts YAeTp
water has not been carried heretofore.
Mr.. Glenn said that he ana Mr.. Wyatt,
Superintendent of the Water-wOrks, had
canvassed the city for the purpose of learn
ing the opinion of the citizens with regard
To establishing new water works at TOdd's
Knob, and found that the people were all
willing to pay their present tax in order to
defray the expense Of building new water
works, and many expressed a willingness
to have their tax Increased, il an unlimited
supply of pure water could be obtained
thereby.
As our readers are aware, a survey Of
Cobb's Knob was made by City Engineer
Foster, and an estimate of the costs of
erecting water-wOrks thereon was sent in
to the City Council by that gentleman.
The distance from Nashville is about six
miles, and the water would be taken from
the Cumberland, above Stones river, and
would be conveyed to the city IN a three
foot main after passing from filterihg and
settling reservoir. The cost of this work
was estimated at $4,000, and this sum,
Mr.. Glenn says, could be raised very readi-
ly if the Legislature would authorize the
city to issue water bonds. lie thought
these bonds would sell for at least 80 cents,
provided the yater-worEs were mortgaged,
and the water-tax receipts set aside for the
payment of these bonds as they fell due.

PICNICS YESTERDAY.
Three Excursions on the Northwestern
Road and One on the Cum
berland.
A Day Of Recreation and Delight to
the Young Folks.

1t required sixteen railway coaches to
transport the Sunday-schOol parties that
left the Chattanooga railroad yesterday
morning fer excursions on the Northwest
ern road. Three schools took that route,
the Cumberland Presbyterian, the Chris
tian and the Christ Church.
The Cumberland Presbyterian school
went to Kingston Springs and spent tbs
day in every way delightful.
The Christian Sunday school went mile
beyond Kingston Springs to Craggie Hope,
where the party had very enjoyable pic
mic.
Both of these schools were drawn out by
one engine, and returning at evening, had
the misfortune TO be switched off at King
ston, where they renamed from to 81 p.
NJ. The conductor had a telegram ordering
him TO occupy tho side track till some 9TH
er train passed. Evidently there was some
misunderstanding connected with this dis
agreeable delay, barring which the two
schools had most pleasant trip.
Christ Church Sunday=sohOol went to
Hardings 6roye, and had nothing to inter
fere with the pleasure of the excursion. 1t
was a day of recreation for the old, and of
exhilaTaiion and glee to the young. Romp-
ing, playing, promenading, and chatting
were tho diversions Of the day, while an
elegant collation. gave the party strength TO
continue the festivities till late in the
evening.
The First Baptist Sunday-schoOl, headed
by band OF music, marched to the wharf
and got aboard tbs John s, RranstOrd for
an excursion and picnic up the river. The
BranSford steamed out at ~ A. NJ. with q
party numbering about three hundred.
They sailed for the Hermitage and at i J
o'clock landed and found in grove a
number of tables erected, and thereon was
spEsaG splendid dinner. After enjoying
the feast, the childrsn dispersed and en-
gnged in slleh games IS stptez thsir fancy.
Football. swinging. croquet, equestrian ca
ercise, rowing and fishing were entered in-
to with real pleasure The band, under
the direction of Capt. Gibson, Of the Post
Band, contributed much TO the enjoyment
o; the picnic.
Many Of lhe ps.ty visited the Hermitage.
At Il O'Clock all were aboard TO start nome,
and at : O'Clock. without any accident or
unpleasant ihipg having occurred, the ex-
eGrsiOniSts diSembarked a the upper wharf.
Rev. DR.. J. ". Hoyte and his eStimable
lady were invited guests, and their company
was a source of especial delight TO the party.
