City Election.

The city election on Tuesday
passed off very quietly. The
saloons were closed during the
time the polls were open, and
as consequence only a few OIL
the initiated could get anything
to drink. Not a drunken man
was seen on the streets during
the day. AT six o'clock the Sd
looms weressopened and some
managed to get up steam
before going to bed. The
friends of the many candidates
worked very hard, but most OF
the "electioneering" wassdone
with the colored men and
brother. The tickets were all
white so that it was impossible
for any estimate 20 be made;
the result remained unknown
until the count was completed.
The vote was the largest ever
polled and is as follows:

Amusement Notes.

From the condition of our boarde at
the present writing, the indications
are that Knoxville is to have q more
brilliant amusement season than has
been known for come years. We have
had already aekind Of opening with o
minstrel performances, but the regular
opening will be next Monday night,
by the Star Alliance Opera Com
pauy. Following close upon this
come the Stewards, an English Opera
Company of no uncomfortable merit.
They were in Nashville last week.
They are booked at Staub's Opera
House for the 26th and 9th insts.
Then comes the Katie Gilbert compa-
ny for the 30th inst, and the 1st of
October. The renowned Adsh Rich
mond Opera Bouffe Company Ia
booked also for three nights engage
ments, the Ct, 7th and Sth of Octo.
Der. Then comes the Runtley Dra-
matte Company, but we do not re-
member their dates.
: The famous Madame Rentz Female
Minstrels are also to come before our
foot.ligh hts In November, and the
Murphy Combination. and many
other distinguished combinations are
In correspondence for dates farther on
in the season. Thus 1t seems that
there will no lack Of foot-light attrac-
tions for us.

JoNEsBoRo', Sept. Is. 1879.


MR. EDITOR: The death of Mr..
Maxwell BY the train on last Saturday
is still tbs subject Of much comment.
There are various opinions respecting
the affair. The jor, o. inquest report
that he came b, bis daaah BY the train
runoing over him. Thsrs is much
mystery about the affair. 1t seems
highly probable that he was lying on
the track In q senselsss condition.
The theory is, that he was trying to
reach home, bu. fell upon the track,
and, and In falling, struck his head
against the rail or a crosstie, and lay
In a benumbed condition when the
train passed over him. Evidently he
had been drinking, and when last
seen was walEtng along the track
completely under the iOhaence- of
whisky. ....,s-.s.s..s
Mr.. Maxwell, at the time of his
death, was engaged in pu,ting up the
brick work OF Mr.. J.. M. Johnson's
Residence. BE was good mechanic,
aud had pleasant home aud amin
Ieresting family. He was called away
so Suddenly that opportunity for re.
fection was hardly possi bic. How
short the road from the saloon to the
grave sometimes becomes!
Our people are getting more and
more interested on the subject OF the
FAIR. AS the time approaches the
prospect grows brighter We hope
after the Fair to bs able to give q
history OF some of the Interesting
relics which We have assurances will
be on exhibition.
Several Of the new buildings now In
process OF erection will soon be COM
pleted. Some of these buildings are
beautiful structures. Jonesbor0' will
have many beautiful residences by
and by. The spirit of Improvement
gives US great encouragement.
The schools have opened under
quite favorable prospects. Drs. Mays
and Royal are making an exoellent
impression. They are old and expe-
rienced teachers. Ed. Baker has
opened school In the old Martin
Academy He has a good opening.

sud bis capacity for making friends is

topic Of conversation for weeks after.
Such canvass as he is making was
never known In the State since the

wilds with his stirring eloquence and
side-splitting jokes. The very old

of any consequence. It is not his ora

true business sense. that takes. They
all feel acquainted with him when he

of making them each feel that the con-

:. This, day last year was an
eventful one in the history of
that epidemic. One hundred and
twenty seeen persons were reported
at the health office for inter-
ment, and 1t was. believed that at least
twenty more died that day. Another
important item connected with that
day is that the books OF neither the
health or Howard officers show q sim

the cases numbered but about twenty
or thirty. A
It is feared that the apparent cessa-
ton Of the disease indicated in to.
day's reports will induce many
refugees to return, only to supply fresh
material for the disease to spring again
into life upon. The physicians say
that such an influx OF unacclimated
persons would cause the worse aud
more fatal epidemic than the past two
months have produced. The wise will
remain awsy. Their anxiety to return

greater than the dread Of those here, Ii
