m John II. Cockrill leading
colored politician of Nashville, in a
published card, thus promulgates:
I'VE, the colored Republicans of
the State of Tennessee, have been
held as instruments to vote white
Republicans into Offices. The
time has now come when colort d
Republicans must share part Of
the positions within the gift of
the people. If people is truly
reprr scented it is by their own
race. Colored men, the time has
come for you to act"

A New Turnpike.

We have the pleasure OF an
nouneing to our many readers
that charter for another Turn
pike has been obtained, to run
from Fayetteville to Peters
burg, and that public meeting
to get up subscriptions, &C., is
to be held at Renfro Station
next Saturday, the Goth. We
hail all. such movements with
great pleasure, and commend
them specially to the favor of
our people. There is nothing
so much needed in our country
now as good Turnpikes, and
we hope this is but the begin
ming. There are quite num-
Der Of our roads that are very
unpleasant and Improbable to
all that have to travel them, and
that would be vastly improved
by a pike. We may get used
to a rough roads, but they can
not become pleasant, and when
we come topay our blacksmith's
bill, repairs of wagons, &c, we
don't think they are very profit
able. It would take gate fees a
long time 10 amount up to the
bills for repairs. Moreover, our
fair friends, the farmers wives
and daughters, have to come to
town sometimes, and we are
sure their pleasure in coming O.
yer a good road is worth a
whole years gate fees. So lei
all the roads be built up; we
can't have too many. We wish
all our people would think of
these things and go to work at
once and let us have good roads
lin every direction. a charter
is now easily obtained, and with
but little cost or delay under the
law Of 1875, and a great dea.
of work might yet be done this
fall. But Oh so important road
as that to Petersburg, there
ought especially to be no delay
For that road the charter is
ready, and it now just depends
on the people whether it will b.
built. We are glad to be able
to say that it has been underta
ken with energy, and if those
interested in the project vii
sustain it, there can be III
doubt of its success. Then lie
Fayetteville and Petersburg
and all along the line of thu
road and neighboring to i
come together on Saturday AM
settle the building of the roa'

~ While Congress was in
session, Grant was afraid to a
dept despotic measures for rul-
ing the South, but as soon as
that body adjourned he issued
orders to Gen. Sherman to hold
troops in readiness to be con-
centrated in the South, Of course
with the intention Of ruling it
during the ensuing campaign.
The President says that there is,
in his opinion, a great necessi-
ty for ordering all the available
force of the army to the south
ern States. 1t is charitable to
suppose that he was drunk when
he issued his monstrous order
to incite violence, intimidation
and political discord.

Crops in Middle Tennes
see.

1t is said that the wheat crop in
Middle Tennessee has turned out
well, both as regards quantity and
quality. Southern millers are
are now in the market buying
wheat at 80 cents per bushel, and
holders are anxious to sell at these
figures. Thirty car loads left
Wartrace, one day last week, for
the Southern markets. The corn
crop is excellent, and promises
such an abundant yield that the
probable price will be low at gath
ering time.

The Esculus HippOcastanum, or Horse
Chestnut, generally known as the Buckeye,
is Native of Asia, and was init oduced in
to Europe, about the middle of the six
teenth century. Its virtues as preventive
and cure OF Hemorrhoids (Pile } have
been suspected by eight tenrhs of the
the people of this country. To prove this,
ask any one of your neighbOrs, or friends,
why he carries that Buckeye in his pocket,
and he will tell you, it is either to cure
him of the Piles or to prevent his having
the disease; tkat it has virtu es peculiar tC
this disease, and that they can be utilized
Tor its cure is now fixed fact. Its virtues
lie in the bitter principle donominated Es-
culin; of this any well informed medical
man can inform you. That the Buckeye
