A SQUAD of men and hove

A squad of men and boys, claiming
to be U. s Revenue men, reached this
place Sunday afternoon, representing
that they had been upon the war path in
Cooke county and had been victorious
in the capture of quite a number of the
poor, Ignorant muuntaineers of that
county. During their stay they took a
position near the Cain House and par
took copiously and repeatedly of the
contents of keg which they brought
with them, and which we are informed
was whisky, and probably portion of
the spoils captured on the raid. They
were fair specimens of that class of the
Revenue brigade so necessary 80 keep
the officers and vultures of the concern
supplied with victims from whom to
suck longer existence.

WATKINS AND HoUK.
1 was at Maryville Thursday and
heard the speaking. Watkins opened
the discussion and for an hour and a
half the vast crowd was held by a con-
tinual flow of eloquence and overp0w-
ering logic. No speaker in this end of
the State can compare with Watkins as
a stump speaker. Poor ''lsttze L. g.
HOuE" looked like small fee that had
gone through a threshing machine;
waved the bloody shirt, and confederate
money, snapped and barked around for
an hour and half and finally wound up
by informing the Knoxville crowd that
it was train time, and that we had bet
ter go before Watkins rejoindcr. So
we did not hear the rejoinder, but learn
ed since that HOuk was again run
through the thresher, other end fore
most.

The Health Guardians.

A SHORT AND BUsINEss-LIKE SESSION
From the appearance of things, last
evening, the Board of Health has ut lat
settled down to the fact of transactiup
business in the shortest possible space of
time. The session lasted only half an
hour, during which the following bust
ness was transacted:
The Fourth Ward Committee, to whom
was referred the communication of a
number OF citizens residing in the vicini-
ty OF Hart ~ Bros, estaDlishment on
Fifth street between Walnut and Poplar,
complaining of nuisance existing there
made the following report:
"Your Committee of the Fourth Ward
to whom was referred the petition of
said ward, relating to certain nuisances
arising from Hart * Bros establishment,
would report that they visited said es-
iablishment on Saturday afternoon last,
and inspected the premises thoroughly,
bnt coull see nor find anything that they
could take exception to. The commi ttee
were fully convinced that Messrs Hart
~ Bro. were using every precaution to
prevent anything that might make IL
nuisance or annoy the citizens in that
vicinity" The report was accepted and
ordered to be filed.
The Tenth Ward Committee being
called in regard to the nuisance caused
by Shipley Run, on Front street between
Monroe and Adams, Mr.. Burke arose,
and stated that he had been unwell, and
had not given the matter enough atten-
ton to make report, but he had called
the attention of the president to the
case.
The Chair stated to the Board that he
had called upon the Committee of City
Council, to whom the matter had been
referred, and they had informed him
that the matter was being attended to.
The city was now engaged in widening
the run below Maryland Avenue, and i n
q short time the sewer on Front street
would be enlarged and the nuisance com
nlained of abated. No action was taken
in the matter.
The Committee on Impurities in the
Brandywine water, being the next Com
mittee called, Mr.. Smith said that ina.
.jority of the Committee visited the
Brandywine on Saturday last, and pro.
ceeded up as for as Shipley Run. Upon
a careful examination they failed to find
anything that claimed their immediate
attention, in fact everything was in ex.
cellent condition, much be tier than IT. was
this time last year. The only thing that
claimed their attention was the over.
flowing of two ces>pools, but upon the
owners being notified they promised to
have them abated.
The Committee on Accounts reported
that they had examined the accounts of
the late Treasurer and found them to be
correct. On motion the report was ac-
cepted and ordered to be entered upon
the minutes. The same committee also
reported the bill of Il. w. Vernon & Son
for S6.25 correct, and on motion an Or
der was drawn for the amount.
Mr.. Simmons, of the Sixth Ward, pre-
sented communication from Jacob
Pusey, complaining of great nuisance
in front of his building on Walnut street,
between Thirteenth and Fourteenth, and
asked to have it abated. Referred to the
Committee of the Ward. Adjourned.
