Those who are most competent to judge
do not hesitate TO say that the effects OF
the strike are not as damaging to the
business interests Of the country as have
been supposed. Had the strike occurred
TWO months, or even one, month later
the interference with business would
have been OF incalculable damage, but it
came at time when there was little
freight to be moved, and all is now quiet
and traffic fully restored, ready for hand
ling the crops on the one hand and the
goods purchased with the money they
bring on the other. Altogether, in spite
OF the arguments OF croakers, we are
lead to conclude that things are not as
bad as they might be.

daily adding to its already justly won
celebrity. From all sections of the

accounts of it's great efficacy. 1t has
been used with the most satisfactory
results by a great numberOf our citizens,
for various diseases, such as Soar Throat.
Erysipelas, Dyspepsia and variety of
chronic affections. Nearly every one
who has tried it, speak of it as a wonder

can truly say, that have never found
such speedy and effective remedy for

If properly used it will certainly relieve
these unpleasant complaints in an as
tonishingly brief space of time. With
our personal knowledge of its medical
virtues, and knowing the source from
whence it is obtained, as well as a per-

lures we can confidently recommend
its use to any who may be afflicted as a
safe and reliable family medicine.

Perhaps it would interest our readers
to know the origin of Clinch river and
Clinch mountain. We briefly explain.
In June, 1861, Colonel Grant, with some
regular troops marched into (this) the
Indian country and in crossing the river
Clinch, then without name, an Irish
man, who was one of the company, fell
off the raft, and being unable to swim,
was much alarmed, and bawled out to
his comrades, elfach me clinch mel 1t
being a phrase they were unaccustomed
to hear, at that day, they made them
selves merry at the expense of the poor
Irishman, and called the river Clincb,
in memory of the poor Irishman's pray
ers while undergoing this unceremoni-
Gus immersion in the turbid and rapid
stream. They then gave the name to
the adjacent mountain.
