The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1879-10-02

A Washington special to the New
York Herald of the 23d ult. says
Gen. Walker, the superintendent of
the census, said to day that according
to his plan of operations he would be
able to report to the closing session of
this Congress the result of the enumer-
alton to be made next June, and would
show the tables of population by
States, counties, cities, towns and vii
lages, so that in December of next
year the present Congress may proceed
to determine the apportionment under
which the Forty-eighth Congress shall
be elected. The Importance of this is
that it insures TO Il democratic Con
gress the reapportionment ofthe coun-
try and will enable it to control the
manner in which the basesof represen-
tBtion shall he determined SO that 1t
will be most favorable to the Southern
or democratic States. As the result
of the Presidential election will be
known before the report is made in
Congress, should it be unfavorable to
the democracy this Congress will have
it in its power to make the provisions
Of the apportioning act beneficial to
the defeated party.

An extraordinary statement is In
circulation in England to the effect
that Cavagnari did not go to Cabul
with the light heart usually supposed.
On the contrary, in private letter to
u friend in this country received with
in the last few weeks, he spoke in Il
despondent tone of the work imposed
upon him. He represented to the
Niceroy the uselessness Of the mission
and the dangers which it was Drawing
He knew that an envoy would either
I've kept 4 close prisoner or would be
in constant fear of his life. If it be
true that Sir Louis Cavagnari made
such representations to the Viceroy it
adds another proof to the many al
ready known of the guilty folly ofthe
men who have entangled England in
a desperate Enterprise.

The Oakland Tribune gives the fol-
lowing reason why Dennis Kearney
wilted in regard to his Grant effigy
threat: Captain Jack Crawford, the
poet scout, is a great admirer of Gen.
Grant, as Of all military men. When
he heard of kearney's threat he be-
came excited and went to kearney's 5
headquarters to interview the hero of
Santa Ana alone. Not finding him
there, Crawford thundered out the
following message to his representa-
tive: Tell him that if he ever burns
Gen. Grant in efigy, or even attempts
to perpetrate that indignity, | will
make it my individual business to kill
him. Jacks reputation for veracity
and skill ia the handling of Il weapon
is good, and, therefore, Kearney craS-
fished."

River Thieves.

The Mississippi river thieves are
growing bold and desperate. On last
Saturday party boarded the wharf
boat at New Madrid, and, locking the
office door, compelled Mr.. Howard,
the proprietor, to furnish the combi-
nation for unlocking his safe, and,
when open took therefrom the round
sum of Sc, ,000in money. This daring
robbery was accomplished in broad
open day light, and the robbers made
good their escape. Mr.. Howard has
offered reward of 81 900 for the cap
ture of the thieves. The particulars of
the robbery we have not learned

The Postofice Departments is prepar-
ing proposals for carrying the mails
in Ohio, Indiana, North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida,
Mississippi, Kentucky and Tennessee,
which will be published in November
and the opening will be in February
next. The mail service, uLder these
proposals. will be about double as
much. On all routes where the service
now is weekly it will he semi-weekly.
All semi-weekly service will be in
creased to tri-weekly. and all county
towns and court houses will have a
daily service.

important Changes in Rates.

The joint Executive Committee of
the Trunk Lines and their respective
connections was in session in New
York, Wednesday, in the office of
Pool Commissioner Fink. The at
tendance was larger than on Tuesday.
The Committee on Abrogation of
Csntracts recommended changes of
tariff on the following basis, to meet
special contracts: From Chicago to
New York-Butter and eggs, soc per
100 lbs; cheese 40c and wool so.
The subject of new percentages on
east-bOund business was discussed,
but the Committee on Allottments re-
ported in favor of the present dis
Irritation of business, and its report
was unanimously adopted. Rates on
unaompressed cotton were changed to
the following figures. From Memphis,
&c; Nashville, 60c; St. Louis and
Hannibal, 59c; East St. Louis and
East Hannibal, soc; Louisville, 4Sc,

Albany and Cincinnati, 27c. Rates
on live hogs were not changed, but

allowed on shipment for export.
Slight changes in the classification of
lumber and tobacco were made, but
no change in rates. The subject Of a
general reclassifcation of freights was
given to o subcommittee to consider
and report upon at an early day.

Correct Pronunciation.
Philadelphia Record.

81 was susprisel," remarked Mr..
Sides, "to hear the wordsso universally
mispronounced by the members OF the
Teachers National Convention which
met recently in this CITY," The word
telegrGphy should be pronounced te leg
raphy, not tel e-graph-y. SPtalOr, fire.
quently pronounced "squoller," should
receive the long sound Of q, as in mate
-squa-lor. The word vagaIy should
be divided into three syllables, va-ga-
ry, with the accent on the in the
second syllable. In recess the accent
falls on the last syllable, and is pro-
nounced recess. The 10 in government
is too often omitted, as the word is pro-
nOunced gur-ern-ment. EnerUGtc Is
pronounced e-ner-vate, not en-er-vate.
Hdisputable is pronounced both in-dis-
pu-ta-bIe and Indispensable, but the
former mode of pronunciation is the
correct one. The word isolate should
be pronounced iz-O-late (the as in
mate), not so-late. AUOpathy is pro-
nounced al-lop-a-thy, not al-lo-patty.
Rise, when IA noun, is pronounced
"rice," but when a verb is pronounced
rize. The last word referred to By the
expositor of correct pronunciation was
huqh, which created considerable
merriment, SO much so that the listen
ers lated and they lofed and they
larfed, when the proper thing for them
to have done was 70 have struck the
sound of as in far, and they would
nave been just right.

A Sharp Corner.
Philadelphia Times.

That German paper in st. Louis,
in which the name of Secretary Schurz
appears as one of the owners, advises
the Germans of New York to work
for the defeat of the republican state
ticket. This, in connection with the
fac that Secretary Sherman declines
to allow money for the New York
campaign to be raised in his depart
ment, will doubtless make Senator
Conkling feel as though he had finally
stumbled against a sharp corner of
the Administration.

Wheat iEs France.

The Bulletin des Halles reports
that the new wheat threshed, so far,
is unsatisfactory both in yield and
quality, being deficient even in dis
tricts where it was expected to be ia,
vorable. In several departments the
new wheat fetches from three to four
francs per quintal les than the old,
some Of it requiring several months
driving ',efore it can be miiled.

A railroad engineer tells of the
storm in the Summit Miss Times:
The waves were blown over Manshac
bridge loaded with fish, car loads of
which were picked up, and he could
ba:he his hands in the waters of the
lake from his position on the engine.

Two boys, one of them eighteen
years old and the other younger, were
recently sent to the penitentiary for
three months, from New York, for
stealing FIVE cents worth of lead from
the roof Of a house. If they had
stolen one hundred thousand dollars
they would probably have been turned

Where Ignorance is Bliss.
Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise

Onion parties are popular in Tus-
carora. Six young ladies take an
onion into a room with them and one
of the number takes bite of it. Then
a young gentleman is admitted, and
after kissing all of them, if he fails to
tell which one of them bit the 'ingUn.
then the girls are all compelled to kiss
him, or he is compelled to kiss all Of
them, the chronicler forgets which.

Harper's Weekly, after due medi-
tation, advises New York republicans
who desire that their votes shall count
for republican principles and republi-

completed, Nashville will get the bulk
of West Tennessee trade, and why the

From the Trenton Herald.

Bunk Roe and Mike Shehan were
captured last week at Guntown, and
Sheriff Arnold went after them Friday
and brought them here and relodged
them in Jail.
We learn that Mrs. Walter will
soon leave Trenton for Milan, to take
charge of a hotel. She is an energetic
worthy lady, and we hope Milan will
give her the encouragement and pat
ronage she is sure to deserve.
County Superintendent Coulter will
hold a Teachers Institute at Dyer
station Friday and Saturday, October
third and fourth, and earnestly invites
all teachers, directors, educators and
editors, as well as the public generally.
President Cole has determined to
build the Tennessee Central railroad
to Milan at all hazards, whether Tren-
ton does anything or not. Then if
Trenton ever gets an extension of the
road it will be after Milan has gobbled
up all she wants, and on terms die
tated entirely by somebody else.
