claimed to the day of his death
the right to marry all the wives he
fancied. He had his favorites, but
it may be well understood that they
were little better off thar the i'm
prisoned wives Of a harem. Brig
ham admitted recently to a reporter
that he did not know all his
children, and did not pretend
to know his grandchildren. He
quit taking that kind of
a census years ago, and
nobody else seemed to take an
interest in it. The bereavement at
his funeral can only be estimated
by the acre or length of procession.
Surprising that all his wives are
there except Ann Eliza, each one
dressed in deep mourning, with a
long black veil and a white hand
kerchief with black border to mop
the briny tears from their swollen
eyes; Supposing one hundred and
fifty children, with their wives and
husbands, come next in the process
sion, making a family of at least
three hundred without counting
grand children, and suppoSing they
all give way to their grief at once.
What a picture, and what a guam
tity of bereavement! We are in
clined to think, however, that it
will be a thin kind of mourning,
and that most of them, old enough,
will be thinking more about the
prophets will than his soul or his
%paternal kindness in life. lie was

We regret to learn that Hon. A.
B. Haynes died suddenly and unex-

was able to sit up until yesterday
morning. At six o'clock last even

congestion Of the bowels and brain
set in, and at six this morning he
was dead. Mr.. Haynes was a native
of Giles county, and came to Shelby
county when a young man to prac-
tice law, but married Miss Buntyn,
daughter of Geraldis Buntyn,
soon afterward, and turned his at
tention to farming, at which he
was highly successful. He was a
member of the Baptist church,
an upright and respected citizen,
and greatly esteemed by his
neighbors and the community at
large. He was elected to the lower
house of the legislature on the
Democratic ticket in 1872, and
again elected to the senate in 1874,
making both times an efficient and
influential member Of the legisla.

RsUNION OF THE SEVENTH TENNEs-
SEE CAVALRY.

The survivors of this gallant
command will meet with their
friends at our charming Estiyal
Park tomorrow, the 31st of Au-
gust. Extensive arrangements
have been made to render the affair
as agreeable and entertaining as
possible. The full programme APP
pears elsewhere in our columns,
and we commend it to the attention
of the public, and especially Of the
old soldiers. 1t will be seen that a
number of distinguished men are
announced to deliver addresses,
among others Judge John L. L.
Sneed, General Gideon j. Pillow,
Governor Harris, Hon. Casey
Young, Judge Logwood and various
Others. All the railroads leading
into the city have made excursion
rates and a large number Of people
may be expected from the country.
Ample preparations have been
made to entertain all who may
come. This gathering of old com.
rades who fought side by side, rode
together on long, weary marches,
lived on scant fare, and slept on the
same blanket, will revive and
strengthen friendships as lasting as
life. The endurance Of common
~sufferings and hardShips knits men
together as with hooks of steel,
When they meet in after life it is as
the meeting of brothers. These
reunions have been too much
neglected, or omitted rather.
Necessities have interviewed hard
to overcome. The real soldiers of
the war, especially in the South,
have been too busy trying
to make a living and to rebuild
their broken fortunes to devote
much time to social gatherings and
amenities. But a better era has
dawned. In spite of many public
evils the most of our people have a
competency, with brighter pros.

country we can all rejoice that this

AN EXTENSIVE BEREAVEMENT.

1t is reported by telegraph that
Brigham Young, the head and
trustee of the Mormon church, died
at Salt Lake City yesterday after
noon at 4 o'clock. We presume
the report is correct; if not it soon
will be, as the prophet could not
hold out much longer at best. We
will risk a few obituary lines on
him any way. The first thought is
one of sympathy for his bereaved
family. He leaves more widows and
orphans than any man Of modern
times. 1t is believed that he had
recently folty-nine wives and about
one hundred and fifty children, be.
