Sidewalk Letter.
ON THE SIDE-WALK /

u Me Editor 81 Me NelO8..

To the Editor Of the Ne'OS:
Last Saturday was one of the busiest
DAYS for Bristol we have seen for a
twelve month. The streets were alive
with tTnde. One of our merchants
says his sales OH Friday were nearly
five hundred dollars On Saturday
they must have exceeded half a thous-
and.
From all quarters the reports that
wheat never before looked as well or
ness has not suffered a decline. 1t is
true prices were low, but already they
are higher, and if such reasons were
sufficient, then what could our people
20 at? Corn, and wheat and horses,
and, indeed, every other product OF
lobor, have these same declines in
prices.
Mr.. Joel Kaylor is now planting one
hundred acres of tobacco. Last year
he had good crop, and he says he
will expeud it all to produce the pres.
ent one. Esq. ThOs. p, KaylOr is put
ting out twenty acres. These points l
pick on the sidewalk as our friends
pass in from the country. Butter
comes down at last. The heat OF last
Saturday was such as roll butter could
not stand no where but OH ice. Up to
a week ago one could not buy a pound
for less 3Octs. A few days ago it
touched 25, but to-day 20 is the outside
figure. In few days it will touch a
shilling.
Mr.. Arthur Buchanan tells me the
indications are favorable for a good
honey year. The hives that came
through the winter are doing finely
now. He lost near 40 stands during
the spring.
White clover is unusually early, and
Locust bloom promises to be very
heavy.
The Baptist congregation has called
Elder j. II. Kincanon, who has &C
copied. AS a clear headed thinker
and persistent worker lie has no supe-
ror in his church in this country.
NJ. ID. i. Miller is again a candidate
for the Legislature from Sullivan
Mark has the capacity to make n rep
resentative, and If he is good on the
"electioneer" he may go. Col. Odell
means to go himself he says, and to-
day friend observed as he passed me,
"By the way, do you know that Odell
will beat Gregg very badly ?' l told
him 1 did not know. Said he livery
good !. then you are not posted."--
But then he did not know of the new
move by which Miller had meandered
into the field. The latter has such
men as DR.. Murphy at his back, aud
the DR.. is an entire team.
Messrs. w. n. Keller & Co. received
a whole car load of Stoves last Satur-
day. Such is business.
Bates is selling at the new Shoe
Store, and the ladies are pleased with
his styles and prices.
Mr.. Jno. G. Burrow has returned
from New York with his new stock of
pictures and other attractions. His
establishment is the wonder of Bris.

the opening of the Centennial at
Philadelphia. He pronounces it far
ahead ofhis most brilliant conceptions.
Although there several days he saw
little of it in detail.

TIE A. NJ. ~ q. II. r., CASE.
The Appointment of Il Receiver
Insisted Upon.

The following circular has been Is
sued:
AGENCY OF CONSOLIDATED BOND |
HOLDERS OF THE A. NJ. d D.
r.. II. Company, % NASSAU
ST., New YORK, May 8, 1876. J
To the Bondhoiders Of the Norfolk &
Petersburg, SOUthside, and Virginia
and Tennessee Railroad Companies:
Gentlemen. AS you are probably
aware, the Atlantic, Mississippi and
Ohio Railroad Company has made de-
fault in tho payment of interest up
on its consolidated bonds.
In consequence of the default and
the failure on the part of the company
to carry out. the terms of an agreement
entered into recently by the company
through its president, while in Lon
don, to fund the overdue and por-
ton of the future interest, the holders
of the consolidated bonds have ceased
to continue their confidence in the
present management of the company.
The consolidated bOndholders have,
therefore, through their trustees, made
application, in the Circuit Court of the
United States, for the appointment of
a receiver to administer the affairs OF
the company.
In taking the step it is the wish OF
the consolidated bOndhOlders to give
to you the strongest assurance that
their policy Is entirely opposed to any
disintegration of the consolidated
road =; and that they intend to respect
all equitable rights, other than their
own, in the property.
The consolidated bOndholders feel
that with this declaration they may
confidently rely upon your support in
the proceedings which they have been
compelled to take to secure their in
terests, which have been sacrificed, as
we'll as yours which are seriously inn
perilled, under the present unsatis-
factory administration of the property,
/ am, gentlemen, your Ob't. Serv't.,
JOHN CoLLINsoN,
Attorney in fact ana representative OF
the consolidated bohdholders of the

road Company,

EVENT and COMMENT.

Mr.. j. w. Jewellers illness con-
tinues, and there is now but little hope
of his recovery. He is at his resi-
dence in Henrico county, but we fear
he will not be there long.
C. r. Lucas, Of Giles county, has
been sent on for indictment in Balti-
more for passing ten dollar counter
felt note. He was unable TO give bail.
1t would seem that circumstances
ought to be very much against him to
Justify such measures.
Henry Hobbs, Petersburg negro,
wagered five dollars that he could
drink quart of whiskey. He won,
but the five dollars was spent in pay.
ment of his coffin as a consequence.
The conservative primary election in
Lynchburg resulted in the nomination
of j. II. Seay for mayor.
Il. +. Aiken, well-knOwn citizen
Ct Smyth county, died on Monday
of last week, aged GS years.
Edward Shaid, colored, of Mem
phis. and Hon, r.. II. Butler escorted
the President of the Republican Con
Vention, at Nashville, TO the chair
the said president, in the mean time
being like the ass between the two
bundles of hay.

Ono has declared for ex-Gov.
William Allen tor the st. Louis
nomination, and adhercs to the rag
baby plank in her platform. 1t is
evident that this loses us that
State in the Presidential election,
tor to carry Ohio on soft money is
to lose the Middle and New Eng
land democratic States. Gov. AL
len is simply out of the question,
and Thurman having lost his own
State the nomination is now be-
tween Bayard, Hendricks, and
Tilden, with chances in favor of
Tilden. We believe that Bristow
will be the candidate of the Re
publicans, and thus we will have it
between the two reformers.
The Richmond DRPATCH says
"And it is not going too far 10 say
that the southern delegates should
agree to no platform but one upon
which the Democratic candidate for
President can certainly carry New
York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
We can't possibly carry Ohio, Illinois,
Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, or Wis
consin. In fact, Indiana is the only
one of the northwestern States in
which we can even so much as hope
to succeed. What then2 Shall we
make platform to please any of these
States but Indiana Surely not
But shall we make Que TO please In
diana? Undoubtedly, il Indiana
agrees with Mr.. Hendricks in being in
favor of hard money. And if Indiana
does so agree with him, then Indiana,
New York, Now Jersey, Connecticut,
Colorado, California, Oregon, and all
other southern States, can agree upon
platform that will insure the success
of our ticket. The southern States
can agree upon it, because whether for
hard money or not, their highest in
terests demand that they shall support
n candidate who can be elected"
Bristol news. [volume] (Bristol, Va. & Tenn.) 1867-189?, 1876-05-23

WE believe now that success is inn
possible without New York, and we
are going to get New York by nomina-
ting Tllden. We don't like him as
well as Western man, but that is not
the thing. We fear a Western man
cannot carry New York or any other
Eastern State, 50 we drop the West
and go for Tilden.-See Cincinnati
