elaborate map OF the State Of Tennes.
see, for general distribution. The rail
road lines, feeling the necessity for such
a map, have agreed to contribute liber.
ally toward it's publication. The com.
missioner states that it will be the most
complete map Of the State ever pub.
lished, and will measure about seven feet
one way and two the other. A complete
index with horizontal and perpendicular
lines will accompany it, so that any
place in the State may be easily found
by reference to the number Of the lines.
Such a map is greatly needed for immi.
grafton purposes, and we are glad 10 see
the railroads acting in concert with the
commissioner as such a publication
would exhaust a large part Of the bu-
reau's appropriation.
