is more convenient to get to market.
The farmers in this vicinity have
been planting corn. previous to the

their work over, as the heavy rains

Knoxville, recently, our attention
was called to a very handsome piece
of work. in the way of an Office,
made by Howes, Bridgeman & Co.,
for w. w. Woodruff & Co.'S magni-

made in the most approved and con-
venient style. out Of ash and walnut,
after plans drawn by j. F. Bauman.
A descrip lion of the work is imprac-

reflects credit on designer and exc
cutor, and is in beautiful harmony
with the superior attractiveness and
beauty of flush that marks the new
building in every respect.

manufacturers and dealers in uphol-

Their commodious ware.rooms 140
Gay street, are filed with fine speci-

green and striped terry sofas, loun-
ges and chairs. Elegant marble
finished bureaus, and tables. Bed
room sets, mattresses Of every de-
scription. But a partial enumera-
ton of their stock gives poor idea
of what is to be seen in their estab-

not justly, to have the largest and
best assorted stock of furniture in
East Tennessee. Themselves mas
ter mechanics in the various branch

they guarantee satisfaction in every

Frost AND FRUIT. : We had a
very heavy frost in this section on
Saturday morning last. The ground
was white with it long after sunrise.
and it was feared much damage had
been done to the fruit and wheat
crop. We are informed, however,
by farmers from different sections of
the country that no material damage
was done. The heavy fogs prevail
ing on the river farms saved them,
but how to account for the escape of
advanced wheat and the fruit crops
away from the rivers, is what we can
not tell.
