Chattanooga.

Since our last issue we made 4 fly.
ing trip to Chattanooga, the future
great manufacturing city of the south.
Shortly after our arrival we were TAX
en- in hand by Hon. L. A. James
and catried around to see the sights of
the city-the mammoth rolling mills,
blast furnaces, tanneries, and manu-
factories of various kinds. 1t is hard
ly necessary to say that we expected
to see great thrift and enterprise, for
the city is fast gaining a name as n
great manufacturing centre: but the
half had not been told us. In addi-
tion to the millions of dollars already
invested, about half million more
has been put into iron works in the
past three months. One large hun
dred-ton rolling mill is preparing, at
an expense of near two hundred thou
sand dollars, for the manufacture of
steel rails. A steam tannery makes
leather enough to supply an army.
Cotton mills have been opened and
are working full time; an earthware
and tile factory does large business,
and YOU can hardly turn around for
iron works in some shape The mer-
chants are live and active, and do q
considerable wholesale business. Ev-
erything and everybody seems busy
no idlers, and the population increasing
fast. Weare under special obligations
to our contemporaries, Col Franc Paul
NJ. of the Dispatch, and Mr. G. S. Gun
ningham, of the Times, for favors
shown us. They are both elegant gen.
tlemen and publish good papers. Every
man in that section ought to rally to
their support, for they can do more
to advertise and build up the city
than any other enterprise. Our old
time Middle Tennessee friends, Rev.
j. NJ. Phillips and Capt. W. Morris,
were both very kind, for which our
thanks are due them. We found the
old reliable Nashville and Chattanoo-
ga railroad in frst-rate condition
new steel rails having been laid on
most of the line. Attentive and
pleasant conductors and train men
carry passengers through safely and
on time.

We had the pleasure yesterday of
meeting Mr. Jones, editor of the Dres-
den Democrat. He had been on a
visit to Brownsville, and was ON his
way home.
The Fort Smith, Ark, Herald, in
its notice of the closing exercises of
New Hope Seminary, Choctaw Ma

one of our talented lady friends:
"The patrons of the school express
themselves as much pleased with the
course of teaching pursued by Miss
Lochie Rankin, and the pupils are
steadily progressing in their studies"

He organized the first Baptist Church

Railroad Items.

Fruit and vegetable raisers here
will lose much money here in conse>
quence of the railroad troubles.
In consequence Of the stoppage of
trains on the northern roads, passen-
ger travel is light on our roads now.
1t is rumored that the Memphis
and Charleston men struck last night.
If this be so, nearly all traffic with
the east is cut of.
1t was rumored this morning that
the employees between Louisville
and Bowling Green have struck, and
that no freight is received for points
north of the latter place.
We had the pleasure last Saturday
of an introduction to Mr. Montgomery,
the Superintendent of this consolidat-
ed division of the L. 4 n. road. We
found him to be pleasant gentleman
and an energetic officer.
The railroad employees here are
deeply interested in the excitement
now prevailing, but are perfectly
quiet. We hear of no threats. DR..
Standiford says there will be no re-
duction of salary on the L. d n.
road.
General strikes of the firemen on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and
its branches, and on the western di-
vision of the Pennsylvania road, took
place last week ON the freight trains.
The military had to be called out to
quell the riots.
1t seems that very few railroad men
are found in the mobs which are cre-
ating such a reign of terror in the
northern cities. Railroad men gen.
orally are hard-working law-abiding
citizens, and are aiding the authori-
ties in their efforts to keep the peace.

ST. Nicholas for August

Follows close upon the superb issue
for May, that so ftly heralded the
Spring. 1t is a capital Midsummer
Holiday number-a feature in chill
dren's magazines, which st. Nicholas
was the first to bring out. Specially
adapted to the wants and longings
that prevail in summer weather, it is
full to the brim of retreshment and
interest, and sparkles like cool water
from a deep well. Its array of great
and familiar names speaks of high
quality as well of variety and attrac-
tiveness.
Henry W. Longfellow, the formost
of American poets, has in this num-
Der a poem Of which the form and
spirit are alike admirable, and appro'
pirate for St. Nicholas. As q specia
contribution, it is evidence of the ap'
probation given to the magazine il
the highest circles.

CARROLL NEWS.
En General.


Mr. j. r. Mcdonald has been elect
ed back tax collector for Carroll.
Our Carroll friends suffered consid-
erably from the floods last week.
Wheat, corn, cotton and fences were
damaged badly in some sections.
If handsome young Mckenzie
druggist don't stop running to Milan
so much son business" some of the
boys will kuklux him, or Stone him.
Prof. Randle has retired from Nc
Kenzie College. Rev P. III. Miller
has been elected President aud James
w. Hunter Professor of Mathematics.
The jackson Tribune and Sun is
hauling U. S. District Attorney Muir
ray oyer the Goals, and asks an inves'
tigation of his Office before he is re-
appointed.
We spent night recently at the
excellent Mckenzie Hotel. Of course
we were well treated. Everybody is
who stops there. They don't know
any better-or worse.
We learn Mr. S. b. johnson, liv-
ing in the edge of Carroll county, lost
over one hundred bushels of wheat
last Wednesday. The sudden rise OF
the creek caused by the heavy rain
washed it away. A widow lady,
whose name we could not learn, had
about five acres washed away.

Freights by the Southern Lines.

Siuce the big strike commenced on
Northern roads freights for the South
have been diverted TO the Southern
lines. The Tennessee & Virginia Air
Line is beginning to feel the heavy
pressure via Norfolk, and all the cars
at its command will be required to
move the freight westward. New
York and Boston freights from Mem
phis and Nashville are all to be sent
over that line pending the railroad
troubles north of the Ohio. Express
goods will also he sent to, and receiv-
ed from, the East over that line un-
til transportation facilities are afforded
elsewhere.-NdshriUe american.

PickettViIle.

July 2lst, 1877.
As for news | have plenty, but l
hardly know how to commence.
In the first place our neighbors
have lost about one thousand bushels
of wheat by the late rains; and oats
were lost in abundance. Esq. Park
er lost some sixty shocks and j. e.
Palmer about seventy FIVE shocks of
wheat. To tell of all the damage
done by rain would take a long time.
The water was eighteen inches higher
than was ever known in this section,
and consequently cut short all crops,
corn especially. | believe that corn
will be higher than has been known
for years, and wheat will be about
two-thirds of an average crop. Our
farmers have all lost the cheerfulness
that was wont to tighten their visages.
l could lengthen this letter to volumes,
but will await the crash that is to
come.
There is a great deal of sickness
this week. Our friend, W. 7. Parker,
is very i'll of bilious fever. Mrs w.
I. Parker is sick with bronchitis, and
several others are bed-ridden. l hope
they will all be better soon.
Cows are daily barbecued on the
track now. Some mans COW is killed
daily.
We have never had an enemy un-
til to-day, and he comes up in the per-
son Pof #. P. Mathis, who had the
audacity to take IA nip to-day in our
presence and never ask us to take a
little.
Our friend Robt. p. Parker has the
management of the depot, and, by the
way, Bob makes splendid hand at
the business.
No marriages. but plenty of births.
Bob Senter is cOnsme Il fa,d-that is a
boy baby to-day Saturday. The
fact is | never heard of as many ba-
bies in anticipation. Our county will
be able soon to furnish soldiers for
the Turks or any other man.
