Local Option.

The Jonesboro' Herald and Tribune
says: 1.-THE gentleman who offered
the resolution "declaring the passage
of the Local Option Bill unwise, and
detrimental to the party" received by
express from Nashville last Tuesday n
nice little five gallon keg marked
"Old Apple" 1t may be possible that
"another gentleman will send him
in few days a barrel marked "Old
Rye What a good thing it is to
have friends, and cheap of them"
Ed. is very popular at Nashville just
now, and no doubt will want TO go
back there in a couple of years" That
gentleman may as well make up his
mind to stay at home; for by the time
of the next canvass we expect the
good people of East Tennessee so
worked up on the temperance ques-
ton, that all those who voted against
the measure will be allowed to remain
at home. These kegs of "Old Apple'
and cold Rye" have considerable to do
with defeating temperance measures.

DEAD DAYS.

Our summers are but burial places, where
We lay to rest the sweet days as they
die
Softening their outline with loves rose
mary,
And memory's lavender, and all Of rare
Tokens to keep them fair.
Our winters are the vaults whose ice
fringed cells
Shut in still other cofined days, for
whom,
When born and left amid their frozen
gloom,
White surpliced flakes lin place of lilly
bells)
Tinkle their muflied knells.
We bury them, and sigh. with bowling head,
Submissive else The tender days must
For they are earthly-born, and perish so;
Yet by what augury hath any said
That they are wholly dead?
The short-child melted grave O. er which we
yearn
Even yet-the empty birds nest filled
The leeRess bough--the spring that comes
and goes
Teach resurrection lessons, each in turn,
Which we are quick to learn.
Our days die thus; and we--their lives
Withdrawn
Like other mourners, fail of faiths con-
troll
Forgetful that each memory is the SOU
Of q dead day, such as in summers gone,
Mid rosemary sleeps on.
And when they meet us yonder, face tC
facet
After their resurrection-shall we ther
Hail them with greet and welcome once
again,
Companions of our blessedness always
Dear, risen, deathess days?

Had n SpeIling.SehooI.

The spelling-school fever affected some
OF the gamins yesterday. They talked it
up around the postoffice, and a dozen or
more adjourned to an alley and stood in a
row while one Of their number pronounced
words out Of his heed.' Dog" cat, "
boot, lemon - and some other words
had been got along with, when the word
" morocco" came into the teachers
mind. The first boy spelled it 'more-
rock-o,m and all the rest followed, and
when the teacher filed his demurrer they
ran him over a pile of barrels and hit him
with frozen potatoes, thus interrupting
the harmony and breaking up the school
One of the boys was afterwards heard
saying

Our shippers complain Of another dull

few or no changes to make in our report
for this morning. Owing 10 the recent re-
duction Of freights Oh the western roads,
corn is weak at our quotations This re-
duction enables the West to lay grain
down in the Southern markets ten cents
cheaper on the hundred pounds than here
tofore. Bacon and lard are in demand.

were sold at auction day or two ago.
The library was a very ordinary collec-
ton, and the curiosities were still less
valuable. A set of satin-cOvered fur
niture brought the highest price-Sl65;
a carved OAK etagere, once owned by
Victor Hugo, sold for SIS, and the
books went at an average Of 279 cents
each.

Tennessee Marble in All Its Beauties,

Tennessee Marble In All Its Beauties.
From a column description of the
Boston Custom House in Boston Her
aid Of the 9th ultimo, we clip the fol-
lowing complimentary notice Of the
marble furnished by the Knoxville
Marble Company, under the above
sub-head
This marble is Of pink tint, very
beautifully variegated, and is probably
the most compact stone OF the kind
ever known. 1t Is composed of min
ute crustacea blended together with
more than the usual amount of silicic
acid, and evidently formed or solidified
under an enormous pressure-hence
! it's density. 1t is most admirably
adapted for the purpose TO which II Is
put in the custom house, because 1t will
not stain or tarnish. 1t is also the best
marble known for table tops, mantels,
etc, because it can not be soiled by
grease or oils, and is withal most orna-
mental and rich looking. so imper-
/ meable is it held to be, that il is claim
ed that not even kerosene oil poured
upon it will penetrate its texture to the
remoteet extent. IL is known as Knox
vile marble, the quarry from which it
is taken being some four miles west OF
| that city.
