Mr.. Walter F. Adams, Of Westboro,
Mass, writes "For years 1 suffered tho
horrors of dyspepsia and indigestion. They
seemed to weaken every organ of life, and
completely shattered my nervous system.
At night when 1 lay down l felt I could
not live until morning. Heartburn panied
me most terribly. l tried Browns Iron
Bitters; it suited my case precisely, and
now my stomach dgests any kind of food,
and my sallow complexion and other symp-
toms of i'll health are gone, and at night l
enjoy most refreshing, dreamless slumber. "

Knox County Jail Notes.

The efficient and obliging iailor, Mr. r.
H. Hood, reports only Is prisoners in the
Knox County Jail now, and when the pris-
oners from a distance are taken out, which
will be in few days, this number will be
considerably diminished, unless there are
more accessions. AS a rule the prisoners
are well behaved and peaeeable. and give
the jailor very little trouble
A plot was discovered and nipped in the
bud by Mr.. Hood Wednesday night to break
jail by five of the prisoners occupying one
of the upper cells. Cole Nelson was the
leader of the plan, and was found with two
small saws, which he readily gave up.
| They were found to have sawed the bars in
two places, had taken up one plank from
. the floor and had another almost up
Cole Nelson, Andrew Harris and Cal
Cook, are still in Jail here, awaiting a re-
turn to the Meigs County Jail They are
all Knoxville boys, but were arrested on the
Tennessee River for bacon stealing, about
year and half ago and have been in Jail
since. They were convicted and given
three years in the penitentiary by the jury,
but by an oversight the judge neglected to
pass judgement. This flaw was developed
on the hearing in the Supreme Court
for which purpose they were brought
] here, and they will now have to await the
sitting of the lower court again in February,
before sentence is passed.

Adjournment of Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court of Tennessee met as
usual yesterday morning, and after brief
session closed UP the business arranged for
the term, and at 10 o'clock adjourned final.
The court has been in session since Monday,
September 70, just two months. 1t has
been a pleasant and harmonious ses-
sion throughout, and business has
been dispatched with as much
rapidity as possible About 300 causes were
heard, but there remain perhaps as many
more on the docket. The court sentenced
one man to hang during the term and sent
six to the penitentiary
Chief Justice Jas G. DeaderickS has been
i'll most of the term at his home, Jonesboro,
and has been unable to occupy the
bench much of the time. Judge
Cooper, of Nashville, was chosen in his
stead, and served with acceptabillty. Judge
| George Andrews, of this city, and Hon.
J. H. Gaut, of Cleveland, served as spe-
cial judges, in some instances by appoint
ment of Governor Hawkins.
LIS CdhONlCLE ufts presented from Time
to time abstracts of the most important
opinions delivered, prepared and reported
by Mr.. Lewis Tillman, jr., who is one of
! the best-read and clearest headed
of Knoxville's lawyers. Some slight errors
have perhaps crept into these reports, from
the fact that Mr.. Tillman did not see the
proof every time, but in the main they were
taken and acknowledged to be reliable re.
ports of the opinions.
The CHRONICLE newsgatherer desires to
return many thanks to the worthy and eff.
ficient clerk, Mr.. J. F. Deaderick, for many
favors shown during the session
The next session of the court will as
semble in Nashville the first Monday in De-
cember next. Chief Justice Deaderick is
improving, and hopes to be able to sit al
that session.

Assessment of Property of Railway Com
panies.

Assessment of Property of Railway Com
panies.
The Supreme Court decided on Thursday
last, as elsewhere reported, in a case from
Chattanooga that the acts of 1875 and 1877.
providing for the assessment of property of
railway companies, were unconstitutional
and void. The effect of this decision is if
we understand it, to leave every county and
Incorporated town at liberty to have
proper assessments made and begin
proceedings to collect back taxes.
The court is unanimous, basing
its conclusion upon that provision of the
constitution which requires that taxation of
property shall be equal and uniform
throughout the State 1t is suggested in
the decision that it would probably be con-
stitutional for the Legisture to provide by a
general act similar to that of 1875, for the
assessment of the rolling stock, road-bed
and franchises of railroad companies As
this is a matter of no little importance
would it no. be we'll for the
Governor to call attention to it and EN-
brace it in the business to be brought be-
fore the special session of the legislature
There will likely arise much litigation be-
tween counties and cities and the railroads
as to taxes, unless they, in mutual, fair and
liberal spirit, compromise their differences.
The fairest faces are sometimes marred
by myriads of pimples, and markings of
letter or freckles, which are rapidly re-
moved by popular toilet dressing, known
as Dr. Benson's Skin Cure. Even scrofu-
lous ulcers yield to it.

THE New York Financial Chronicle puts
the railroad building now under operation
at 1886 miles. Dividing the country east
of the Rockies by the Mississippi, and it ap-
pears 4,791 miles are projected north of the
Qhio and Patamafses ffpjpff-a horrn OF me
latitude of st. Louis and A, 140 south of this
latitude, with $40 miles west of the Rocky
Mountains. The average cash cost OF COM
pleting these roads is estimated, with equip
ment, at $397, 100000, and down to Septem-
Der 1881, bonds and stocks to the amount
of $390,312 900 have been issued or sub
scribed for this purpose during the current
year. More will be needed to finish this
mileage, all planned for completion in the
next fifteen months, for there are few-very
few of these securities which bring their
face value to the issuing company. More
than one-third of this sum is being spent, 1T
will be seen, in the old States already full OF
railroads. 1t is possible, as the Financial
Chronicle argues, that the country is now
rich enough to spike nearly $400,000,0O0 to
the ground this year and next, with about
one-fourth of its crops deficient this year
and the chances of short crop next year
even; but the country has never tried dead
lift of this sort before without taking PAN
ic at the end of the job.
