History OF the Cholera in Nashville

DIR. Ely Mcclellan, Assistant Surgeon OF
the United States Army, has been detailed
to carry out the provisions of joint reso-
luton of Congress, directing the Secretary
of War to detail a medical officer to in
vestigate and report upon the epidemic Of
cholera of 1873, under the direction of the
Surgeon General of the army. He is now
on a visit TO the Southern States in the
prosecutiOn of the duty assigned him, and
has arrived in Nashville with a view of OBJ
tanning a complete record Of all cases of
the disease which occurred in this city dur
inc last year. In few days he will adj
dress circulars to the physicians of the city
invoking their aid, by furnishing him with
a record of the cases in their practice, aud
such other valuable information as they
NAV have obtained daring the epidemic OF
the disease. The task assigned him is a
most labOriOus one, and he can only hope
for success, in placing before the profession
a history of scientific value, by securing
the cooperation of his professional breth-
rem. We feel warranted in assuring him
that this cooperation will be promptly and
heartily extended by the physicians OF Nash
Vile.

A Lively Dash

Yesterday morning a carriage team be-
longing to Williams * Ewing was left
standing on Cherry street in charge OF a
bow, while Mr.. Williams went into Atkins
blacksmith shop, near the pOst-otfice. The
team became frightened at something, and
started up towards Cedar at fast trot, soon
freeing themselves from the control Of the
boy and then they passed down South
Cherry at a swinging gait. They were at
tached to a double buggy, TO which was
fastened a trotting sulky, the entire outfit
making quite procession, as the vehicles
swayed back and forth and flew into the
air as they would strike a projecting
stone.
Men ran out in the street with full de-
termination to stop the frightened horses,
but, as the latter approached, changed their
minds. and returned to the sidewalk with
more dispatch than dignity. The team
was finally stopped near the city cemetery,
when, strange to say, it was found that ten
dollars would pay for all the damage done
by the escapade.
1t was reported that Nashville Girl, a
ten thousand dollar mare, was one OF the
team. but such was not the case.

DIR. Pierce'S Favorite Prescription is
very strongly recommended by the Medical
Faculty, and is largely prescribed among
their female patients. 1t is worthy Of all
confidence, as may be seen from the follow
ng testimonial;
ATLANTA, Ill, July IA, 1ST3.-Dr. r.
V. Pierce, Buffalo, y. Y.-Dear Sir: have
not words to express my gratitude to you
for your advice and assistance in my case.
There is not one who has used your medi-
cines since they have been brought here,
but that can say with me they have been
greatly benefited. Since l have been so
helped by It's use, six or seven around me
left off all doctors and other medicines, ard
now use it in their families, after being
cured of the same disease as mine. You do
not know what wonder it created in our
city, by its restoring ny sister l wrote You
about, for she had been under the care Of
three of our best doctors, but could not sit
up fer a few minutes az one time. l begged
of her TO try your medicines, and before she
had used half of the bottle, she could 90 all
around the yard, and has now Just come
home from visit FIVE miles away.

OFF FOR BROWNSVILLE.
Meeting of the Tennessee Press AssO-
citation.

The semi-annual meeting of the
Tennessee Press Association takes place to-
dav at Brownsville, and will probably be
continued through the week. After this,
the meetings of the Association will be
held annually.
Among the members of the Association
who were in the city yesterday, leaving for
Brownsville last evening, were the fol-
lowing:
W. J. Slater, Winchester Home journal;
n. B. Buck, MuJreesbOrO Monitor; Archie
Thomas, Springfield Record; J. w. Chill
dress and L. f. Alexander, MlEJreeSboTO
Ne,rs: T. B. Malone, Laurence journal;
DIR. r. L. c. White, Lebanon Herald;
Thos. Bowers, GdlldtiR Examiner, and
Capt. J. b. Murphy, Columbia Herald and
Mail.
The above named gentlemen paid their
respects to the UNION AND AMERICAN Of
flee Yesterday, during their stay in the city.
1t was the intention of J. o. Griffith, Pres
ident of the Association. to start to Browns
vile last night, but was unable to go on
account of sickness. He hopes however,
to be able to leave to-day.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1874-06-11

following matter be incorporated in the
charge:
1T is not sufficient that the testimony in
the cause should show probable grounds
for believing that the defendant sought the
difficulty at the place of the killing, but Of
this fact the jury must be satisfied beyond
reasonable doubt before they convict the
defendant.
.If the deceased was in the act of draw
ing his pistol or the defendant honestly be-
lieved he was, although such may not
have been the fact, the defendant would
be justified in killing deceased, if he hon
estly believed himself in danger of great
bodily harm at the hands of Eagan at the
time"
Judge Frazier did uu. accedE to the re-
quest, saving that the court had charged
what it deemed TO be the law on both
points submitted in this request, and de-
clined to charge further brothers than those
stated in the original char-e.
AT the conclusion of the charge the jury
retired, taking the instructions of the court
with them. No one present seemed to an
ticipate a speedy return of the jury, as 1t
has been intimatcd from the time the
Jury was sworn, that it would be impOsSi-
bic for them to agree upon a verdict, and
hence, it has been the general superstition
of those attending the hearing Of the case,
that mis-trial would be the result The
counsel for the defense claim that eight of
the jurymen will vote for aoquittal, against
four for conviction.
AT the time the Court adjourned yester-
day afternoon, the jury had not been
heard from, and this fact strengthens the
conviction that they find themselves unable
10 agree.
A report of some kind will be made upon
the opening of the court this morning
Powers stated to a UNION AND AMERICAN
reporter, who visited him at his cell last
evening, that he considered the charge O
Judge Frazier as ''veTy lenient."
