MesSrS. EdltorS: Any one who will
properly investigate the subject, must
conclude that Chattanooga is tie coming
city of Tennessee, and will ere long outs
strip any of her sisters, in population and
wealth, except perhaps Memphis.
Located in q section, rich beyond pre-.
cedence in iron ores and coal deposits, and
being at present the point of divergence
of five of the most important Railroads in
the South, with two more under construc.
tion-the Cincinnati Southern, and North
& South-her future is as bright as her
most ardent friends could ask.
| said 'located in a section, rich be-
yond precedence in iron ores and coal de,
posts" Let us Investigate the subject.
by reference to any standard map, within
a radius of one hundred and twenty miles,
some,of the richest ore beds in the world,
workable at a minimum cost, and mex.
haustable for centuries.
These beds embrace three varieties Of
ores-brown hemetites, red fossil and
magnetic. Of these the most abundant
and perhaps all things considered, the
most valuable, is the brown hemetites
which occupies a belt of country wei one
hundred miles long, by thirty wide, ex.
tending from a north>easterly to a south.
westerly direction, embracing a superficial
area of over four thousand square miles.
This ore yields from fifty to sixty per cent.
of iron, and is nearly free from dilaterious
matter. The iron from this ore is exten,
sively used in making car wheels, and i,
much sought after.
The next in Importance add extent are
the red fossil ores, lying more to the west
and which ~contaia not over five per cent.
Of phosphorus, rendering them valuable
for purposes for which ores containing
more phosphorus cannot be used.
There are now within the above radius,
twenty ,seven furnaces in blast, and ia
course of construction, mostly charcoal
furnaces, producing a quality of iron in
great demand.
The coal region embraces tho Cumber.
land, Sand Mountain and Walden's Ridge
section, and so far as can be said of any
thing, these deposits are inexhaustible,
and Of superior quality for iron making
purposes. The deposits of Walden's
Ridge are said to be the largest in the
United States, varying from twenty to
eighty feet in the thickness, without an
intervening stratum of slate or rock.
Possessing these advantages, besides
lying in a rich and fertile valley, from
which she can cheaply draw supplies,
Chattanooga would not be true to her own
interest, unless she made an effort to be-
come a centre os iron manufactures and
more mas already been accomplished in
this direction within tue past two or three
years than is generally known, and which
l propose noticing at another time.

MS OF H~UsBANDRY.

Perhaps no movement in the whole his
tory of organizations in this country, has
travelled with such marvellous rapidity or
attracted so much solid strength, talent
responsibility and influence, in SO short a
time as the Order called the Patrons Of
Husbandry. Like a wave from a pebble
cast Into sleeping waters, the circle of its
organization is broadening out into every
portion Of the country. Beginning in the
Fast, the Order has pushed its rapid and
brilliant conquests as far as numbers
are considered at least, to the utmost ver-
gest verge of the Western settlements,
and e%nrolls, as we are told, a membership
of over two million. This vast combina>
ton Of strength is destined to be a mighty
element III revolutionizing the country,
demolishing many ofthe customs, practices
and tcnets now prevailing, and Supplying
the vacancy with others, either more
practical and beneficial, or pcrnioious and
hurtful.
Hitherto, every other interest, political,
secular, religious and cival have had their
Orders, Mechanics and laborers have had
their Cooperative Unions. The farmers,
alone, were AS an army each fighting con
his own hook" and made no attempt at
concentrated and intelligent action
Being almost constantly separated by the
nature of their calling, and scattered over
a vast extent of territory may account, in
some measure, for this %unorganize1 con-
dition. AS a class, they much prefer at
tending directly to their own affairs, and
have been prone to entrust the Manages
ment of all the rest into the hands of those
who live and thrive on schemes to mako
the NEST money by the least possible
work. 1t was not until combinations of
capital began their well.arrayed system
of expressions, and the anaconda of mos
nopoly to tighten its coils around their
industries that they realized the dire
evils that threatened the whole agricul.
tural interest with poverty and disaster.
They found themselves the victims Of
cvergrown corporations, almost all other
interests banded against them, and they
s%ingle,handed we're forced into a contest
with the whole world. Whilst they we're
sowing and reaping their fields in serene
contentment and blissful ignorance, clubs,
.juntas aud conventions, whose azure brows
were never dishonored with the sweat
beads of honest toll, were plotting their
perpetual bondage, Legislation was
invoked for relief and delivcrance, but
tho Lawmakers had already received
their price" from the other side, or had
not the courage to brave the displeaure
Of the monied power. The Order of the
Patrons Of Husbaudry We believe sprang
from the necessiticsof self,protection, and
its advent should be r~cjoieingly hailed as
an assurance of an, early reform and puri.
6cation in public affairs. There is a
grandeur and a high conception in its
moral power, and if tho action necessary
to make this power efficient is controlled
aud directed by wise, prudent and honest
wsp, tbs success will be as brilliant and

COMMUNICATIONS

McSSrS. Editors: In my communica-
ton of last week | referred to the ap>
preaching election for County officers,
with a promise to say something more on
the subject at a future time. As q citi.
zen Of the county, | have no interest in
these matters aside from the public good.
When we undertake to select men to fill
our county offices and represent us in the
State Legislature, we should Jay our prin
vate partialities upon the altar of our
country's good. Let our past prejudice
and animosities be forgotten in a united
effort for the triumph of principle.
The position and success of a county,
State or Nation is ~inseparably connected
with the standing and qualification of its
public men and representatives. May
Col save us from that time, when the
people shall become SO forgetful of their
W interest as to lie down to sleep like
some grand giant, and permit the public
interest to go into the hands of the DEM
agogues who are all the time seeking to
carry out their nefarious purposes at the
the cost of the public veal. And yet
this is the tendency of things at this very
moment of our National history. The
men frequently aspiring to Office, and
means used to obtain it have been such
that good men and competent men have
been driven from the contest with disgust,
and how often do we cast our votes under
protest. Most of the people Of the coun,
ty are opposed to conventions and have
always looked upon them as machines to
manufacture d%emagogues. In our next
we may give our reasons for opposing con-
ventions, &c. More anon.

ment from the fact that Beecher's card
Iexonerating Tilton from being his slanderer
and defamer was published the next day =
June 2, 1878.
Carpenter says Tilton had no vindic
tive feelings against Beecher and tried
hard before publishing the letter 70 DIR.
Bacon to find some means by which Beech
er should free him from the iniputations
cast upon him by DR.. Bacon. Before he
decided to publish the letter DR.. Bacon
said to friend Of Carpenter s.; IF Tilton
publishes that letter and Plymouth church
does not reply to it within twenty four
hours by u suit at law against Mr.. Iilton,
they will have no case before the Christian
public.
More of this interview will be printed
tomorrow.
New York, July 2S.-The Brooklyn
Union says that not one half of the evi-
dence has yet been received by the Beech
er Investigation Committee. Mnulton
will be invited to testify. Mrs. Tilt n and
possibly Mr.. Tilton will be again called
Mr.. Beecher will come at the last moment
Mrs Tilton pronounced the interview
with Mrs. Stanton utterly false, but will
make no written denial OF such statements.
Her children are at Mt. Clair with friends,
Mr. Beecher will not appear tonight or
tomorrow night lie must first see hi,
original letters of which he has no copies.
Mr.. Sage TO day said ,hat to the best a.
his knowledge ,thing was omitted from
the published account O. litrns testim

Beecher's and Mrs. Tilton's confession of
a,;,.,.,1,,,, rl,A;,, Il,
these statements of I'ilton were made in
an informal conversation. not in testimony.
Another member says Tilton said one af-
ternoon that he was not well enough to
testify. and desultory conversation en-
sued in which he made statement about
the confession Of criminality. A commit
tee man said Beechers examination would
be most rigid
The Graphic has an interview with sew
eral of the committee, who say Beecher
has no intention Of resigning Such stor
les are gossip.
Tilton refuses to say anything further
and declines to be interviewed.
New York, July Is. Mrs Tillon and
Moulton held conversation yesterday.
The latter is acting under the advice OF
Gen. Butler: 1t is believed that when the
committee invite him to testify he will not
refuse his testimony. Mr.. Tilton thinks,
however, that only court of law will com
pei him to speak. 1t is stated that Mr..
Tilton expressed the belief that during the
present investigation no evidence would
be adduced that would convict Mr..
Beecher; that only evidence establishing
his innocence will be sought He believes
from the personnel of the committee that
they will give verdict that in accordance
with the facts brought to light during the
investigation they must aquit Mr.. Beech
er. The committee it Is said, have come
to the conclusion that Mr. Beecher should
not be called upon to testify until Iilton's
statements have been strengthened by
something more than his own affidavit
