THE POITEvENT AT BOLIVAR.
The Boom OF Cannon. SereecIl
Of the Whistle, and Joy Of
the People.


Bolivar Bulletin, lsth.l
At last the steamer arrived. Sunday
morning before noon the booming of
cannon and the shrill steam whistle
heralded the joyful tidings up and
down Hatchie valley that the com
mercial independence of Bolivar is
once more a living fact. For many
long years this important water way
has been closed by an unfriendly State
statute and iron-bound railway OBJ
structiOns.
That statute is cancelled and those
distractions are removed. Let those
OF this and succeeding generations sec
to it that this God-given commercial
highway be never again sealed up
against the interest of the people.
Bolivar is now the head Of navigation.
and her merchants have access by
water to all the great trading ana
manufacturing centres in the MisSis-
sippi and Ohio valleys.
Each year will give the river
route increased business Importance,
and the adjacent and out lying country
will realize the benefits of Hatchie
Captains Deering and Montgomery
passed the Brownsville bridge last
Friday, and having high water in the
river, reached here in good time on
Sunday. They unhesitatingly pro-
nounce the stream to be excellent for
navigation. They brought freight and
passengers for Bolivar, and will, on
their return, arrive at Memphis with
a good load Of cotton and other pro.
duce. The season is now over Tor cot
ton, it being already in market. But
they propose making trips during the
year and be ready with two boats to do
heavy business next fall.
On Sunday an immense crowd of
people greeted the steamer, and on
Monday she was visited by large
number Of ladies and gentlemen. On
her departure on Tuesday, she was
loaded down with vast number of
joyous passengers, who accepted free
passage down the river short dis
tance.
The boat was easily managed and
had no difficulty in turning around
and otherwise moving. In another
column it will be seen that Colonel
Young, our distinguished reprosen
tative in congress, is moving to have
an appropriation made to remove all
distractions in the river.
A mail route will also be estab-
lished. Arrangements have been made
with the steamers to have low freight
rates on all commodities shipped from
or brought to Bolivar. Consignments
will be reshipped free of cost to and
from Memphis, New Orleans, St Louis,
Cairo, Louisville, Cincinnati, etc.
Sunday week the steamer is expect.
ed to return. We are glad to note
the enthusiastic reception given the
steamer, and believe by the coming
fall season those enterprising gentle
men, Deering & Montgomery, will be
enjoying the full fruition of their
highest hopes.

The Senate yesterday rejected the
nomination of Mr.. Henry R. Gibson
for census supervisor Of the First
district OF Tennessee. Mr.. Gibson is
man OF some ability, but Radical
of the deepest dye. 1t is charged
that he was leader Of a mob that
prevented Hon. Emerson Etheridge,
in East Tennessee, from speaking,
when he was candidate for governor
against Brownlow. He was a member
OF the legislature twice, and is the
law partner Of Congressman Houk, Of
Knoxville, and the editor Of weekly
Republican paper published there.
Houk's faiidrs to get Mr. Gibson
shroughwhen other Republicans in the
State, Hon. Wm.M Smith for instance,

were confirmed, will not help the
phenOmenally eloquent Republican
member from Tennessee in his future
aspirations. Houk will not be re-
elected without bitter contest.
Already his opponents are marshaling
their forces, and but for the fact that
Mr.. Rule, the popular editor of the
Chronicle, is already Federal Office
holder, he would probably be the
choice Of the opposition. Whoever is
elected will doubtless be a Republi-
can. We are not taking sides in the
scramble.

Fisk University.

The Expositor, a periodical pub
lished by the students of the univer-
sity, says; The present is regarded as
the most prosperous year in the histo-
ry Of Fisk University. The number
Of students is larger than ever before
since the occupation Of Jubilee Hall.
The enrolment to date is 33l, of
whom 92 are from outside of Tonnes
see and represent 13 different States.
The university is every year gathering
a larger harvest from the seed sown
and the good work done by her stu
dents. Several hundred former stu
dents are employed in teaching and a
goodly number occupy very response
bic positions. Then, too, 115 of the
pupils now in attendance have already
become teachers, and as a rule they
spend part of each year in teaching
in the public schools. Who can esti-
mate the good accomplished by this
little army Of earnest teachers ?

The Tornado la ITardeman
COunty,

The Bolivar Bulletin gives the fol.
lowing account of storm which
recently swept over a portion of Har.
deman county
On Wednesday evening about six
o clock on the 1lth inst. most fear
ful tornado passed over the north
western portion of this county, the
average breadth of which is supposed
to be about 400 yards. The town OF
Centreville situated in that portion OF
the county was almost entirely
demolished. Most of the resi-
dences we're either blown down Oh
very badly damaged also were all the
business houses in the place; those
not entirely destroyed viii have to be
rebuilt. The school house, from which
quito a number of children had been
dismissed only few hours before, was
blown to the ground and surrounded
and covered with fallen trees. The
church was entirely destroyed, the
sills of which were blown out and
raised some distance by the great force
of the wind. Nearly every house in
the place of every kind was seriously
damaged. The forest trees in its track
we're either uprooted or broken off,
and houses blown down or unroofed,
its general course seems to have been
northwestwardly. Fortunately for
those caught in this terrible storm. no
one was killed at Centerville. DR..
Smith and Mr.. Buckner were the only
ones who received injuries. They are,
however, improving; will soon be con
valescent. Further towards Hatchie
river Mr.. John r. Miller was also in
iured, but is improving.

NAsHvILLEAm American: No sane man
can now pretend to hope that national
reputation schemes have the slight.
est chance for success, and, there
fore, the appeal need not be confined
to the honest and mistaken. Every
man who can see an inch from his
nose ought to see now that fatism,
reputation, in one form or another,
are dead issues. Unfortunately ioI
the reputation party in Tennessee
the bottom has dropped out of all such
schemes just a. year or two too soon
for their lovely plan for getting pos
session of all the Offices. They be-
lieved from the signs Of the times, and
with some plausibility, that another
step or two down hill on the part o.
the people Of Tennessee would give
them full possession. Fortunately
better times have brought reflection
and they are left without a ghost Of
chance for carrying out their fine
schemes.
