THE HOP AT MINERAL HILL

Last Saturday night, Maj. Tom
Cain gave emphasis to the fact that
he has taken hold of Mineral Hill
Springs in dead earnest. Although
but few days have elapsed since
the date of his lease, he had an
nounced an "Opening Hop for the
evening of the Both, and we take
pleasure in stating that the enter
tainment was gratifying success.
Aside from his own guests, the num-
Der of whom is fast increasing, his
polite invitation to his neighbors had
the effect of bringing to his spacious
and well-ftted halls a most hand
some company of fair and gallant
bellies and beaux from Tate's, just
two miles distant. At an early hour,
the elegant dancing hall was ablaze
with light and the excellent Morris
town band (Which had been engag-
ed for the remainder of the season.
began to add distilled melody" to
the delightful freshness of the brac-
ing mountain air. 1t required no
prOlongation of such persuasiyes to
empty the parlors and fill the floor
with " gay jewellers, impatient for
the first notes of the prompter. We
were never educated in the role of
f" Jenkins" and therefore must fore
go the pleasure it would give us to
make Individual mention of much
that was graceful and lovely. 1t is
enough to say that the beauty of
eight States was well represented in
the bewildering niazes of the dance,
which only found termination with
the approach of midnight. All
seemed to have caught the spirit of
the occasion, and the whole enter
tainment was most enjoyable. Those
who have never before visited Min
eral Hill expressed their astonish-
ment at finding so charming a place,
with such neat, eapacious and at
tractive accommodations. Major
Cain, himself, was on hand to ex-
tend cordial welcome to his guests,
while the Incompatible Peter Akers,
who reigns in the office, was here,
there and everywhere, and always
in the right place at the right time.
When next they do such things ut
Hill may we be there to
see.

RECENT TRAGEDY LNCLDENTs


RECENT TRAGEDY INCIDENTS.
Albert P. and Charles E. Talbot,
who were convicted of numbering
their father, DR. Perry II. Talbot,
September IS, and sentenced to be
hanged June 25, but respited to July
%, by Gov. Crittenden, were execut-
ed at Maryville, Mo-, on the latter
date, in the presence of eight or ten
thousand people. The case was a
peculiar one, owing to the high res
probability of the parties, and the
scenes attending the execution were
solemn in the extreme.
A special dispatch from Yazoo City
says that horrible affair occurred
on the 9th, near Sartartia, Miss, in
which white girl was outraged and
murdered by a colored blacksmith,
named Isaac Fish. The latter, think
ing he had killed the girl by chok-
ing her, threw the body into a well
and then went into a shop near by.
Returning, after a little while, he
found the girl standing in the water,
which was two and half feet deep,
whereupon going down the rope he
drowned her, but wasthen unable to
get out, and was found there with
the dead body of his victim. The
citizens who had assembled voted on
the question of hanging him, but
circumstances caused a majority to
favor holding him until after an in
quest had been held.
PARIS, Tenn, July ga TRACE
dy occurred at a picnic near here
yesterday. 1t appears that the
brother-in-law of a man named
StubblefeId, both white men, got
into an alteration with some ne
groes. Stubblefeld attempted to
act as peace maker, when two ne
groes seized him by the arms, while
third placed a revolver at his head
and blew out his brains The ne
groes were arrested and placed in
the Paris jail. There was strong
talk last night of lynching the col
ored trio.

very suddenly last Friday, of Mr.

in the morning by the hard breath
ing of her husband, and before she
could render him assistance he died

years in this place, and was a man
in whom everybody had confidence.

Among the Newport (Ky) items
of the Cincinnati Times Star of the
Goth, we find this personal: Mr..
George Washington, who has been
on a visit to old friends for some
time, returned to his home at Knox
vile, Tenn, this evening. He will
return with his family in the near
future and take up his residence
here, and enter into the practice of
the law with his old time friend, Col.
Nelson" This news will be asurprise
to many of the friends of Mr.. Wash
ingtOn, as it was to us. We trust
there is mistake in the report.
If it should prove true, however,
we can only congratulate the people
among whom he may be thrown
upon their extreme good fortune in
securing. the citizenship and society
of a gentleman so ripe in scholar
ship, so learned in law, so brilliant
in OratOry and withal so kind and
generous hearted as George Wash
ington, Esq, Of Knoxville.

A personal rencounter occurred
in Nashville, last Wednesday, be-

received severe punishment over the

ing to know if Edwards had said
certain things detrimental to his

Edwards for fifty thousand dollars
damages for alleged libel, and has
attached the property of George F.

F." ARE THERE FEW THAT BE
81 WE'D ?''

/ Oh BEOS
The venerable and Rev. f. A.
Ross, ID. D., of Huntsville, Alabama,
preached a very instructive sermon,
last Tuesday night, in the Presby-
terrain church in this place. He took
for the foundation Of his sermon a
text found in Luke xiii, %: " Are
there few that be saved 2" He stat
ed that christianity had always been
progressive, that there are better
and more earnestly devoted chris
tians in the Church to-day than
there were in the days of the patri-
archs and, for illustration, compared
the highest order of christians ofour
day with Abraham, Isaac, Moses,
David, &C., showing that these last
were guilty Of crimes that would not
be tolerated now; and yet they were
good men. His exposure of the
rascality of David, particularly,
was thorough and very damaging,
and before a prob Ser court at this day
would land David in the peniten-
tiary. He showed how much
of evil there was, and is, in the best,
and how much of good in the worst
of men. He then took his stand
upon the broad platform of charity
and love, that no man, however de-
graded he may be, but what does in
some way and to some extent exert
an influence for good. As the ques-
ton asked in the text is not answer
ed, neither did he answer it-furth-
er than to direct the minds Of his
hearers to the great number Of good
men and women, in all ages of the
world, including all of the children
who have died before reaching the
age of accountability. Speaking of
the millennium, he said he did not
believe that God would allow Satan
to reign six. thousand years and
Christ one thousand, but understood
the one thousand years to be pro
phetic years, or three hundred and
sixty-fve thousand years that Christ
would reign and christianity would
predominant throughout the world.
He would open wide the gates ofthe
celestial city to admit the onward
pressing innumerable host that no
man can number" and then Christ
would see of the "travail of his soul
and be satisfied" After a pointed
description and emphatic rebuke of
sectarian bigotry, in a few brief but
remarks, he urged all
professors of religion to take their
stand upon the greatest of all chris
tan graces-Charity-and to treat
with kindness and pray earnestly
for all who are out of Christ, and
point out to them the way eff saliva
ton and eternal life. DR.. Ross is a
grand old man, and his sermon was
a great and godly one, albeit it was
an entirely new thing in the way
of theological teaching so far as this
community is concerned. We regret
our brief notice of it is so imperfect
and falls so far short of giving the
reader a correct idea Of its pure,
christian sentiment and it's entire
aptness to the text and the times
The sermon was listened to with
rapt attention by good audience.
