THE battle may be said to be fairly
opened between the Cincinnati South.
ern and the Louisville and Nashville
Roads. Several conferences have
been had, and much correspondence
passed between the freight officials,
and, on Monday last, meeting,
which was supposed to settle the affair,
finally was held in Cincinnati. The
Louisville people demanded that the
Cincinnati Southern should charge
the same price over that road as
is now charged from Cincinnati to
Chattanooga via Louisville. AT
terwards, they narrowed their de.
mapds to the point that the
Cincinnati Southern should add to
her rates the bridge toll which LOUIS
Vile has to pay, being $50 on each
car load. The Cincinnatians refused
this also, and declared that their rate
from Cincinnati to Chattanooga should
be the same as the Louisville and
Nashville road charge from Louisville
to Chattanooga. 1t will be seen that
the advantage of $50 per car which
the Southern Road gains by her free
bridge Is quite an item on all freight
from the South to points beyond the
Ohio River.

Sale Of County Scrip.

On last Saturday, in obedience
to an order OF the County Court,
made at its July term, Deputy
Clerk Hugh. II. McVeigh sold to
the highest bidder one hundred
dollars in new County Scrip. Mr..
John l.. Driver made the highest
bid, which was fortythrcc dollars
and fifty cents. The scrip was
therefore issued to him. The
Clerk was ordered to devote the
proceeds towards deiraying the
expense of sending Al. Butler, q
pauper, to Hot Springs. From
" hat We had heard Of tho roduc
ton of the county debt, we are
somewhat surprised at the low
price at which the scrip sold.

We learn from parties present
that tho barbecue gwen by tho
co!orcd people of Pecan Point,
last Tuesday, was great success,
and passed off in the most orderly
manner, rejecting great credit
upon the managers, and those en-
gagged in getting it up. Tho din
ncr is said to have been very good.
The whites nded in force, and
were well attended TO by their
colorcd hosts. Tho United Sons
of Jacob, n benevolent society,
paraded, and made a ino appear
anco. Speeches were made by DR..
McGavock, Capt. McNeigh and
others. The Doctor addressed the
Sundayschoo and Capt. McVcigh
spoke On the advantages of popu

prevailed, and all left highly
pleased. There ,oas no ,ohiky on tie

order prevailed. We are only too
happy to chronicle oredItablc at

answer that he was giving the
