order TO dispose Of Councilman Fogg's
school bill, that it may be printed with the

Very Venerable Prand.

Our Trenton and Humboldt friends will
appreciate this extract from the st. Louis
Times, of Friday; il needs nc explanation:
Trenton and Humboldt, Tenn, have
been the scenes Of numerous riots and dis.
turbances of late, Occlsioned by an unruly
set of negroes, encouraged in their diabOli-
cal proceedings by a set of unprincipled
politicians, whose sole purpose and intent,
it seems, was to obtain for themselves and
various prominent black %scoundrelS the
county and other public offices. Yesterday
a reporter Of the Times had the good for
tune t meet a planter who has lived in the
vicinity of Humboldt for years, and who is
nOy on his way to the West, as a refugee,
yOu might sag, having been driven to dis
traction by the late troubles. His crop OF
lGO acres having been utterly burned, e.
cepting a small feed crop, which he disposed
of for almost nothing, his property not be-
ing salable at any price, and, with a large
family TO maintain, he knew not which way
to turn. Advised by n or two friends,
he gathered together what little means
were within his grasp and sailed forth, an
old man of fifty years, to seek a livelihood
ms ONE milder climate and more cOngenial
society. He is now on his way to Denver,
where he has friends, and it is his inten-
ton TO 20 from there with a party 10 the
land of newly discovered wealth, the
Black Hills. A consistent SOutherner du-
ring the late war, serving under Generals
Price and Bragg, and since thai time an
egsr triIa DepQcsat, bis prospects for liv-
ingin such a district as that from which he
comes is far from being bright, and, like
many others who nave been oppressed by
the tyranny of Radical and black rule, he
takes his flight with but a few dollars in
his purse, and no friends. In this city he
found himself without funds, save enough
to pay for his room at the Grand Central
and sufficient for scanty meals al & down
town restaurant, and tie Mullanphy board
furnished him with passage to the West.

forehead show him to Oe = man OF More

We Must Bend tlne Ring!

To the Union and American
As Kercheval and his Ring are al work,
day and night, perfecting arrangements to
fasten their fangs still deeper into the cor
poration carcass, we would warn those
whose interest lies in the prosperity of
Nashville to be up and doing; and see to it
that We have a candidate for Mayor that
all can endorse; also that We have a good
ticket for Aldermen and COuncilmen put
forward in every ward, so that the thieving
treasury bummers who have so long prey
ed on the city may be checked of.
