We all wear masks, and hide our
grievances and ailments as carefully as
we can; then we complain of lack Of
sympathy in others, as though they
should discover our griefs by intuition.
We cover our best feelings from the
light; we do not conceal our resentments
and dislikes, Of which we are prone to
be proud Often two people sit prone
together, with 81 love you" in either
heart, and neither knows it. Either
thinks, 'I could be fond; but what use
of wasting fondness on one who does not
care for It?" and 50 they part and go
their ways alone. Life is masquerade,
at which very few uumask, even to their
very dearest. And though there is
need Of masking, would we dared show
plainly our real faces, from birth to
death, for then some few, at least, would
truly love each other.
The Tennessee and Pacific railroad,
running from Nashville to Lebanon, a
distance of thirty miles, is too big an
elephant for the Davidson county court
to pocket. Tbst body, few days ago,
adjourned without taking any definite
action on the matter, and Captain w.
NJ. Mari, in making some remarks to
the court, said all the testimony that the
court had heard was for one side only.
The Tennessee and Pacific railroad was
in better condition than any road lead
ing into Nashville. 1t could also bring
freight there cheaper than any other
road. The Nashville and Chattanooga
road had put up job to get possession
of the road, and they wanted to prove
that it was in bad condition. Judge
Whitw0rth was interested because he
had forty Thousand bonds out Of q series
of one hundred and sixty thousand. He
Captain MARI had bought every dol
lars worth Of stock he could get hold OF,
from three cents on the dollar up, be-
lieving in the future of the road. They
could sell it il they dared, he would APP
peal to higher tribunal and make them
pay him dollar for dollar for his inter-
est. They had tried to kill the road by
tying the hands of the president, man
they did not like on account of his asso-
Citations.
The Batesville (Miss.) Blade has
laid US under obligations to it for this
handsome and very fatteriDg notice:
"Since the days when old Father Van
Pelt printed the APPEAL on Washing
ton hand-press, in the village of Mem.
phis, it has been to US, not luxury, but
one of the necessaries of life. Up to the
beginning of the war, in 1861, it was the
champion of southern rights-bold,
earnest and incorporating in the dis
cussion of Democratic principles, and
unwavering in its support Of the inter-
ests of the country tributary t, Mem
phis. During the war it was true to it.
self and the cause it espoused. When
Memphis surrendered to the Federal
army the APPEAL left its comfortable
quarters and MIGRATED with the southern
troops, following the fortunes OF the
Confederate army through evil as we'll
as good report. Throughout the weary
campaigns Of the war the APPEAL made
it's daily visits to the campfire and
bivouac of the army, nerving US to
cheerfully bear the heat and burden Of
the conflict by its own sacrifices in be-
half of common cause. Since the war
its course is fresh in the memory of our
people, who now show their apprecia-
ton Of its honest, manly course, by q
liberal patronage and hearty welcome to
their homes. The APPEAL deserves and
should ever have q warm place in the
hearts Of the people of Mississippi, and
we would be glad to see its patrons null
tiplied in the State"
