We have received several numbers
of a paper recently started at Charleston,

On the contrary, the prospect at present
is very flattering, and the late cold snap
may prove an advantage to it. The fail
ure of this crop for two successive sea-
sons would be a serious loss to East
Tennessee, and we trust the present sea-
son may be propitious for large yield.
- Col. William Nelson. Republican
editor of the London Times, is horn
swaggled by the Belknap rascality, and
hands in the chips like an honest player,

on the old Bonrbons at big steal. Give
way, make room, and let the old he
Bourbons roar"
