Complaint has been made as to the
manner in which orders to bury negro
paupers are issued by the city magis
trates. Every magistrate can issue the
order on the application of any person
and this is well-calculated 20 lead tC
fraud. A negro.ca obtain half a dozen
orders to bury the deceased, and by a
little liberal swearing the county can b
made to pay the burial expenses on each
one Of these orders. One person should
only be permitted to issue these orders
to bury, the Chairman Of the County
Court for instance, WAC keeps an Office

The number of applications which are
made 10 several magistrates for such
orders has given rise TO many suspicious.

the third for trunks, baskets, and general

trade Of the house being found in Middle

WHOLESALE DRY GOODS.
Buekner Go.

The development Of the wholesale dry
goods trade Of Nashville since the war has
been, in many respects, remarkable, and We
cannot now call to mind any CITY in the
country, North, South, East or West, that
possesses so many well-established, we'll
equipped wholesale dry goods houses as
does this, population being az all apprOxi-
mately equal. Many Of these hOuses-in-
deed most of them, are the OutgrOWth Of
similar enterprises which flOurished fifteen
years agO-the above named is one. In
about 1856 the house Of Gardner X Co. be-
gan business as jObbers, under the leader
ship of Robert II. Gardner, not Of dry goods
only, but of a miscellaneous stock. The
war closed their business, and on the first
of January, 1857, the house was virtually
revived under the style Of GardAer, Buck
ner * Co.. occupying the same premises
Quilt by Mr.. Gardner, No. 2 Inn blOck) as
before the @unpleasantneSs." Three years
AGO Gardner, Buckner & Co. were sue
ceeded by the firm Of Buckner Il Co., COM
prissd Of II. B. Buckner, Q. W. Peden and
A. ?. Connell-
The senior, Mr..H. b. Buckner, has been
one of the iObbers Of Nashville for over
twenty wears. He was one Of the old firm
of Gardner & Co., and from Jan. 5, 1866,
to Jan. 1, 1867, was partner in the firm
of Evans, Fife 4 Co. Of this city, and also
Of Evans, Gardner q Co., Of New York.
A thoroughly PRACTICAL business man, he is
eminently fitted by the habits and expert
ences Of a life time to be At the head Of an
influential house.

WHOLESALE LIQUORS.
Chatham & Kinney-The Largest
Liquor House I'm the state.

The Mammoth Establishment OF
Chatham & Kinney-The Largest
Liquor House I'm the state.
At No. A South Market street is located
a firm that has become known, through
reputation, to nea iy every section Of the
country. Is operations have been upon q
scale commensurate with the importance Of
the trade represented, and the business that
it has attracted 10 Nashville can only be
reckOned by hundreds Of thousands Of dol
lars.
The house had its origin in 1868. Its
history is thus briefly told. Its trade will
admit Of somewhat more detailed COM
ments.
The firm are exclusively wholesale liquor
dealers, and we presume that We are safe
in stating the sale of Whistles comprise
fully three-fourths of the trade. The house
has made a speciality Of Tennessee whis-
kies, notably Robertson and Lincoln cOUn-
ty brands, and also of Kentucky Bourbon
and Rye. For years our sister State of
Kentucky has enjoyed the reputation Of
producing the best WHISTLES Of the world,
but Tennessee is now 20 the front. The
WHISTLES made in Robertson and Lincoln
counties are generally the production of
what may be called small distillers, where
everything is handmade, and abundance
of time and the greatest care are taken in
the various processes. The fnsil oil is ex-
tracted BY cOaling instead of BY the slow
process Of evaporation, and az two years of
age these whistles are really old. A very
large per cent Of the WHISTLES handled by
Messrs. Cheatham & Kinney are Of this
class.
One can obtain an approximate idea Of
the extent Of trade Of the house by visit
to the premises used as sales and store
looms. The building is five floors IN
height, extending from Market to Front
street, and all Of this space is utilized, as
indeed it must needs be where the stock
usually carried ranges from three to four
thousand barrels, independent Of wines,
brandies, cOrdials, etc. This immense stock
is required, too, for the house controls a
trade that reaches throughout Tennessee,
Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky,
Missouri, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Arkansas,
Texas and Louisiana. Within this terri
tory three to four travelling statesmen are
usually employed. The business Of the
house has exhibited a decided growth each
year. Orders are constantly received from
sections Of the country heretofore supplied
by dealers elsewhere, and this increase in
trade must continue.
TIE house makes a specially Of straight
goods. It's immense trade has been obtain
ed largely by reason Of the uniform charac-
ter Of goods offered, and its favorable Tepu-
tatiOn has been achieved and retained
through years Of business transactions with
dealers in fifteen or twenty States. Pos
sessing a thorough knowledge of the bust
ness, and carrying a stock Of goods second
in extent to scarcely any house IN the Uni
ted States, the firm Of Cheatham & Kinney
become worthy representatives Of an inter-
est second to none other in the country.
