As husband and and wife see little of
each other, they are not specially given
TO qlarreiling Bat she il a woman,
possibly purchased outright il the slave
NJ aFket, Tor it is pure illusion to suppose
that The slave trade in Turkey has been
abolished, and being woman she bears
about her on every hand the marks of
degradation. 1t is her duty TO wait on
her husband, if he is poor, at meals
Her accommodation in the house is in
fsrior to his. In all things che is his

If the wifs is the daughter of q
wealthy man Der lot is not a hard one
AS the law regards marriage merely as a
partnership she keeps her own property,
ane the husband has to be on bis good
behavior TO get share of it IF she Is
Of poor origin she can hardly be said to
nave any rights
On two or three occasions it has been

THE HATcHIE RIVER.

We understand tibet bill as been
introduced in the Legislature to declare
Iiatchie river navigable, but this bill
aud many others of importance are
shelved because members think that the
dog law repeal business is enough, in all
conscience, to tax the brain of any gis
lator. Over five hundred bills have been
presented this session, and very little
work of practical interest has been done
1t is very convenient and easy to play
legislator, but the people tire of such
costly amusement
There is no subject of Sc much direct
concern as that which affects the none.
aary gains of the farming community.
The opening of the Hatchie river is e
demand. Haywood, Hardeman, Lauder
dale, Tipt, and Fayette are immediate
" interested in this scheme. At least
fifty thousand bales of cotton are annu-
ally shipped by rail from these counties
st sost far above that which should
obtain. Hatehis river can easily be made
30 float this crop aRd immense quantities
OF fine timber to market at very cheap
rates of transportation and thus save
thopsaRds of dollsRs to tbs planters.
We trust our immediate representatives
will give this subject their prompt per
sonal attention.

Plants and Music.

A late num5sr of the English Ne
csanic contains a letter from a gentle
man who claims the distinction which is
rightly the due of everybody who makes
a great scientific discovery. His find is
the alleged fact that IOusic has marked
influence on the growth of plants, and
the way IN which be came to faster on
this important truth is as follows: He
was the owner of greenhouse in one
Of the dry regions Of Portugal, but IN
fortunately his house was only green IN
name; roses and flowers refused to bios
som, nor would any plant put forth the
tender bud. Saddened ty this state Of
things, the lucky man took his hsrmO-
mum Oh his shoulder one day, and ia a
very determined way, set it down in his
conservatory, fully resolved 30 have is
out with fate after the melancholy man
ner of musicians addicted to the meio-
deon, harmoaium, hsrmonicon and &C
cordeol, to the grief and finally brutal
pisgust of whole neighborhoodF. Wild

action on the part of Tennessee, by the
appointment of legislative committee
Of three or Eve, charged with the duty Of
appointing time and place for an inter
view .Fish the arbiters named IN the
fourth resolution and to lay before them
the statistics il reference to public debt,
she resources of the State, the values
upon which the debt vas contracted, our
presenttaxable values, with statement
of the condition of the people of the
State. Such a conference, in ny opin-
ion, will result in an adjustment of the
State debt upon basis acceptable to the
great body of the people, and VIII re.
lieve them from any stigma or stain
whatever.
The General Assembly viii, in no
wise, b. bound by the recommendation
of the arbitsrs, but will be free to accept
or reject it.
If this policy is adopted, respectfully
recommend that all questions t,uchinz
this subject be postponed to awsiB the
action Of the aFbissrs, asd if time be-
comes essential will not hesitate to
convene the General assembly ia extraor-
binary session.

Immense immigration and Great

Enterprise.
To the Editor Of the Washington
Union:
SIR: 1t is impossible to adequately de-
scribe TO yeu the great food tide of i'm
migration pouring in,o Northern Texas.
Hnndreds and thousands of wagons are
crossing Red river daily, and the trains
OF the two great trunk roads running
from the North are packed with q hardy
race seeking homes in this most favored
land ct all the immense tide of immi-
grafton, so great is our domain of fer
rlle land, disappears like snow flakes in
the river, leaving room for untold thou
sands to follow.
Dallas is tie center Of this beautiful
country Of North Texas, and its grea.
est commercial emporium By reason Of
the Juneture of two great railway lines
here. She does a business second to but
one city IN the State, and that is the gulf
port OF Galveston. Dallas sold nearly
IS .O0C 600 worth Of cotton and $3.50. OO0
worth OF wheat ID the season lust end
ing lts sales of hides, wool and cattle
are also largs.
Dallas has two elevators. two cotton
congresses, six banks, three Hnessaf
street railway, the Hall system Of aaker
works. IS lighted by gas. and boasts of
three Of the finest hotels aud several Of
the most beautiful churches in the State.

The city Is continually improving and
property steadily advancing A new
railway line is rapidly building from the
city to the northwest with a view Of
opening that wondrously fertile cour-
try ana eentering its trade at Dallas. A
full o implement of laburers are at work
npGn this road, and the track is being
laid as fast as the engineers can put il
down.
The crop prospects were never more
promising, and as write heavy rain is
descending, which will insure the the
heaviest grain crops.

When Summer Gomez
BIZ MSS nEDORA CLARK.

The winter day is darkly drear,
The winds are signing far and near,
ThTo' icy bOughs of gray aud brown,
Whlle lakes of snow come drifting down.
Come drifting down on rock and ridge,
Cone sitting down on mere and bridge,
In gladstone mood and playful strife,
And fill each crevIce of my life.
Each erevice of my life they fill,
And softly whisper, heart, be still
Hope sends To thee such golden crumbs
Be patient ell the summsr comss'
For with the summer you'll come, too,
With birds, and flowers, and crystal dea
Beneath the star-gemmed, vaulted skies
I'll read the love within Jour eyes.
And so I'll watch chem falling down,
These fakes of snow, on field and town.
On ieAhess trees, and guided domes,
And eager, wait till summer comes.
