WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, April 28.-The
House passed the Legislative Ap-
preparation bill on Saturday by a
vote of 14O to 119.
The Senate confirmed the nomi-
nation of James NJ. Melton, as Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the
Second District of Tennessee.
The best information obtainable
on the subject of the consideration
given by the President and mem
bers of the Cabinet on the Army
bill is to the effect that it will be
vetoed. Members of the Admins
tration intimate that the Cabinet is
unanimous in favoring such action,
and that veto message will be sent
to the House tomorrow.
Congressman Rush Clark, of
Iowa died suddenly in this city this
afternoon. He wps in good health
yesterday and was seized, at thaee
o'clock this morning, with meninge-
tis, which terminated fatelly at
three this afternoon
The agricultural reports for
April show that all classes of farm
animals come out of winter quar-
ters in an unusually good condition.
Diseases were not of very great ex-
tent or virulence, except among
hogs in the South and West. Large
losses from so-called hog cholera
are reported in some counties, but
in the most of these cases the mor>
tality can probably be traced to bad
sanitary conditions and to deficiency
of feeding.

Mr.. EDITOR: I notice letters in
your columns from different counties
in East Tennessee, but have not no.
ticed any from this place, and thought
probably few items from this part of
the country would be of interest.
/ am truly glad that you take so
much interest in the improvement of
our beautiful country. For some time
past, I have been receiving so many
letters from Indiana and Ohio asking
about this country that have not had
time to answer them all. Mr. E G..
Eyston, one of my Deighbors, has been
helping me. He is from the State Of
Ohio, and is very much pleased with
this country. I think that any one
wanting a good aud healthy home can
find it in East Tennessee. Some
twenty or thirty persons have written
to me that they will come and look
at this country this summer and
fall They can find good water
Beaver Creek Valley is good valley
has good churches, good schools, good
society, good water, and plenty of
good mills, timber, sc. Any one
coming from Ohio will write to Mr..
Eyston. He will take great pleasure
in meeting them at Knoxville, and
showing them the country. The farm
ers are in fine spirits, and say that
times are getting much better. They
have quit complaining of hard times,
aud have gone TO improving their
farms, building good barns, making
good fences, and painting their houses.
Capt. :. d. Leinart has had his house
neatly painted and papered Major
Jas. McBath has had nice picket
fence put around his property, and
many others are making good and
lasting Improvements around their
farms, &C. think, prob
ably, the peach fruit in this
locality is nearly all killed,
but that the apple fruit is ali safe so
far. There is quite demand for fruit
trees. That splendid nursery Of Bird,
Dew & Co. is located near this place,
and they have not been able, this
Spring, 10 furnish all the demands for
fruit treee, and, Air. Editor, any one
wanting good fruit, and 10 trade with
nice, clever gentlemen, that is the
place to go TO. Wheat is looking
very fine in this valley. How glad I
am to see the Country improving and
to see how every thing is Frightening
up!

PeRlh General RrOwnfOw

General James Patton Brownlow, son
| of the late Senator Brownie ", died Sat
urdsy night al 8 O'Clock at the residence
Of his mother in this city. He has
been in very feble health for several
months, and his death is an event,
| though sad one to his many friends,
| MT at ali unlocked for He was born
on the 17th day of December, 1912.
| The writer knew him when but a
small boy Even then he possessed
| traits of character which made him
universally popular. These traits re-
mained prominent throug ghout his life.
When but nineteen years OF age he en-
tered. the Union army as a Captain
in the First East Tennessee Caval
ry. Soon after he was pro-
NOTED to Lieutenant Colonel
and had command of his regiment.
He was afterwards promoted to a full
Colonelcy, and about the close of the
war, when only % years of age was
breveted Brigadier General. He par
ticipated in more than so engagements
and gained honorable distinction as a
cavalry commander. He had four
horses shot from under him during the
through both thighs, in an engage
ment with Gen. Joseph Wheeler at
Franklin, Tennessee. His gallantry
elected plimentary mention from
Generals George Ell. Thomas, w. T.
Sherman, J. NJ. Schofield, J. 3 Stead
man and others of the Federal army,
AMI was mentioned by correspondents
of newspapers published inside of the
Confederate lines. A gentleman of
this city heard General Longstreet
speak in the highest terms of Gen.
Brownlow's conduct ia an engage
ment in upper East Tennessee, in
which he displayed both good judg-
ment and gsllantry. He was born
soldier, AID his military career was q
brilliant one. After the war, he was
appointed by President Johnson a
Captain ia the Regular Army, and re-
signed on account of declining health,
after serving some time, when he was
on the eve of promotion.
He was married to Miss Belle Cliffe,
only daughter of DR.. D. B. Cliffe, of
Franklin, Tenn, in 1865. They had
two children, but both are dead. His
wife, one of the best women we ever
knew, died last year.
At his own request, his remains were
taken Monday morning to Franklin, to
be inferred beside those of his wife.
Since the CHRONICLE announced, a
week ago, that his recovery was hope-
less, large number of the soldiers of
his regiment have called to see him.
Many of them left with tears of grief
over the loss of a beloved friend and
popular comrade. AS before stated,
he possessed traits which made him
universally popular, and these were
displayed to great advantage in the
army, and the heart OF many an ex-
Federal soldier will grow sad and
many an eye moisten at the intelligence
of his death.

The Fire Record ,

The Department was brought ont
again about O'clock yesterday Morn
ing by the oft-repeated fire alarm, but
their services were not required.
Strange to say, the fire was in the
identical house of Mrs Coffman's,
colOred, on Crozier street, the
same place where it was started the
evening before. This time it was on
fire between the weatherboarding and
plastering, in one of the front rooms,
next to Mr.. Snyder's house. 1t was
soon extiDguished, and its origin is a
greater mystery than ever. Mrs.
Cofman had gone to q neighbor's g
house across the street, about ten min
utes before, and there were several
boys playing around the house and
yard. She owns the house, and has an
insurance policy of $1,000 on it. in
sured with Mr.. w. FL. Sim The
damage was estimated at $22.
A short time after this, a fire was
found blazing up in a closet in the
boarding house of Mrs. Mcbride, on
Gay street, the combuslibles being q
lot of kindhng pine, which had been
set on fire by some means. 1t was put
out without giving the alarm. This
also is enshruuded in mystery which
is not yet solved.

PHILADELPHIA, April 28.-
A Wilkesbarre special says: The
efforts to rescue the men imprisoned
in the mine at No. 10 slope have
proved successful. At 8 O'Clock
this morning the men were reached
and all taken out alive and well,
but suffering much from exhaustion
and want of food. They were i'm
prisoned over four days. Relief
squads of laborers have been con-
stantly at work night and day, and
finally they succeeded in making a
channel through fifty foot block
of coal. The imprisoned men had
built a fire and sustained them
selves on the meat of a mule, which
was caught with them in the fall.
A stream of water running through
the mine quenched their thirst.
They were found in good condition,
having suffered very little from their
confinement.
