We noticed several car loads Of COM
pressed cotton passing up the read last
week, we doubt not to the North, to be
utilized by those sharp and industrious
fellows there. OF course they. will do
it, and at big profit, too. The same
cotton will be returned to the South
after awhile In the shape of manufactur

their own goods, and thus save the

IAPORTAN DECISION BY TIE U.
S. SUPRERE COURT.

a
s. SUPREME COURT,
WASHINGTON, Nov. 90 -Amsng the
Supreme Court decisions to day was the
following No, II East Tennessee. Vir-
ginia and Georgia railroad company vs..
Han Glen county, Tennessee; appeal from
the SuF enc Court OF tennessee; iudg-
ment affirmed. The case, in the pin
Ion Of the Court, is governed by that Of
Morgan We. Louisiana, (93 L. s. 2t7;) in
which it was decided that immunity
from taxation is not such franchise of
a railroad corporation as would pass by
sale under a mortgage on the property
aEd franchises of the company.
It will be remembered that the le.
gislature Of 1875 passed an act tax
ing, for the irst Tins, railroad pro-
perty in Tennessee. Soon after the
first assessment under that acS an
agreed case was made between Ham
blep county and the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia railroad com
pany TO test the question as to whe-
Their that part Of the Cincinnati,
Cumberland Gap and Charleston
railIoad, lying in Hamblen county,
WAS taxable for county purposes as
other property. This case was tried
by his honor Judge Rose, and s de-
cisiou rendered in favor of the coun.
ty. From this d9cisien an appeal
was prayed to The Supreme Court Of
the State, where the judgment vas,
ID 1877, affirmed. From the judg~
ment Of the State Supreme Court a
writ OF error was prosecuted to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
On the 29th ult. that Court decided
the case again in favor of the coun-
ty.
The decision is of general impor.
lance and interest because Of the
ground upon which the canse was
decided. 1t was so decided upon
the ground that where railroad is
sold by State, in foreclosure of the
States mortgage, exemption from
taxation does not PaSsto the purchss.
er "a d franchise under the purchase.
The decision thus covers sill those |
roads known as delinquent roads, |
and renders them all liable to taxa
tion. 1t may not be cut Of place in
this connection to say that our tai.
ented towusmsR, Capt. j. c.. Hodges.
was counsel for tue defendant in the
above suit, and argued it before our
Circuit Court a2d the Supreme Court
ef the State, and by brief before the
u. 5. Supreme Court. More than
this, the act Of the legislature upon
which The suit for taxes was based.
and which By this decision will sub,
ject probably twenty millions OF dol.
lars worth OF property hitherto un.
Taxed to taxation, was substantial
" pefeoted by his zeal, wisdom aud
Iorethought while representing this i
Senatorial district in the General q
of 1875. Honor to whom ]
honor is due.

1t seems to be pretty well established
that the cause of the wholesale poison
ing of wedding party in Roane coun-
ty, an account of which we copied last
week, frem the effect of which SIX have
died and twenty-one are very sick still
was due ia poison in the fsod frsm brass
kettles in which it was cooked, though
the last East Iennesssdn says the intre-
duction of poison into the food at Col.
Dails, is at present quite as much Of a
mystery as when first the terrible fact
that an entire wedding party bad been
poisoned was realized. We believe il is
the decided opinion Of all the Physi-
clans, some six or eight in number, with
one exception, that it was arsenical
poison. We have heard Of no invcsti-
CATION or autopsy having been made, O,
likely 10 be, official or otherwise, and
we will probably ever remain in ignor-
ance as to the kind Of poison OF how il
got into the food.

VERDICT FOR 4 THOUSAND
N

DOLLARS
The trial Of the damage case Of
Mrs. Clara Brady against the city o.
Cleveland was concluded on Nor
dsv. The lady sued for $4,000
damages for bodily injuries received
nv her by falling into hole in the
Twelfth street bridge while passing
along that thoToughrare 81 night.
The defence proved nat the hole
which occasioued the damage was a
very small one, being only three
inches vide By twelve inches loog.
Tho plsistir had testified shat she
.tepped into the hole and sank up
to her knee. receiving abrasions of
the skin and crippling her arm. A
doubt was raised in the minds OF the
Jury aa 10 whether a lady with 3
mediurl,sized fsot and ankle could
sink so far into so small a hole. Is
dies Of the Cinderella pattern have
very small feet, but as Mrs. Brsdy's
foot had not been exhibited in evi.
dence, how could the jury tell wheth.
er she wore No. 6s or Nc. les? The
plaintiffs attorney saw that he had
a very small hole to crawl out Of,
but ne vas equal to the emergency.
He procured 1.2 zach rule of stan
dard guage aud proceeded to meas
IRE his clients foot ia the presence
Of the jury. He showed that the
foot was just q inches wide at the
brosdest part and not over 8 inches
ia length with the shoe on. He
went no further, bnt the Jury were
satisfied that the foot vas smaller
than the hole in The bridge and
they gave a verdict for The plaintiff
