A computation made by Capt. Charley
Arthur, the live agent of river commerce,
shows that up to the 31st ult., the receipts
Of tobacco from the upper Cumberland
were 7,404 hhds., destined as follows:
Nashville, 2,S4S; New Orleans, 3,679; New
York, 49,; Louisville, 800; GAINESVILLE, 80.
This year the receipts will be decidedly
larger than last. Up to July 81, 1873, they
amounted to 1928, of which Nashville got
40 against 2, S4S already this year.
There needs no other comment than that,
when Nashville secures permanently the
lions share of the Western tobacco trade,
the wonder will be that it ever secured a
less share. 1t has the natural advantages
increased dOzen-fold by artificial.

SUICIDE OF A BOY BECAUSE HIS
FATHER WHIPPED HIM.
Hickman ~ Courier. Nm 81.

A young lad by the name J. 7. Tur-
ner, about 10 or Il years old, whose
father lives near the lake, below Hick-
man, comitted suicide by hanging HIM
self, on Saturday last. No indication
of his purpose was discovered until in
the morning. when the mother of the
lad suspicioning something wrong, went
TO the stable, and found her son hang
ing by the neck from one of the joists,
life already extinct.
We understand his father had occa-
sion to correct him the evening pre-
vious, by whipping him, and it is I'M
derstood that the humiliation to the
bov caused him to commit the rash act.

The Nominee.

The convention for the nomination
of candidate for Member of Congress,
held at Middlebury last week with great
harmony and final unanimity, selected
as their standard bearer, Col. Charles
II. Joyce of Rutland. Many OF the
people of Addison County, while hold
ing the gallant Colonel in great admi'
ration and respect and having no other
feelings toward him than of love, yet
desired to express through another
election, their high estimation of the
character and services of the present
incumbent, the Hon. Charles w. Will
lard This feeling and this alone led
them 10 hold back when solicited TO
support Col Joyce. But now that a
nomination has been made, and one
which does no discredit to District
which has been served for six years by
a representative who gained national
reputation for honesty and distin-
guished ability, why should we not con-
gratulate ourselves that the result is so
satisfactory-thatw we have candidate
who, if he has not been tried in this
position, has at least been tried and not
found wanting in Others scarcely less
important.
As the nominee OF the convention
and the now candidate of the Republic
cans of the First Congressional District
Of Vermont, is comparatively little
known in this county it may be well t'
give our readers some idea of his prevl
Gus life. The following facts were tax
en- from a sketch in the Herald.
Col. Joyce was born in England il
January, A. ID, 1880, consequently III
IA now forty-four years Of age. Whel
six years old he emigrated to this coun
try, and has since that time been an in
habitant and citizen Of this country
He is selfeducated man, and on
whose requirements are solid and va

man we want for States Attorney, be.
cause these blood suckers are in fear Of
him.
If any man Of sober mind will for an
