After some excellent music by the choir,
first an anthem by the full choir then a

Hope, and then a quartette by Mrs. Prof.
Marshall, Mrs D. /. Hope, Mr.. Hope and
Mr.. Barker, the Bishop was introduced and
spoke for one hour and half We will not
do him the injustice to attempt synopsis.
He was entertaining, and at times thrill
ingly eloquent. A vein of humor ran through
his remarks, and while there was nothing
In it to which the most fastidious could
object, it was irresistible. His powers of
description we have never heard excelled.
His observations of the condition, habits
and customs of the people on the continents
of Europe and Asia were highly instructive.
His description of the Alps and the road
across them was sublime, and at times almost
raised the audience to their feet He was
frequently interrupted by applause. A
grander lecture was never delivered III

the establishment on a firm footing of the
Southern Car Works." which will eventrl-
ally be one OF the most extensive and useful
manufactures IN the South. The work is to
be commenced tomorrow for the erection of
the buildings. This enterprise was brought
here and located exclusively through the in
fiuence of Knoxville's new proposed railroad
connections.
The boom does not stop here, however,
but other enterprises are constantly seeking
location here. We are informed by one OF
our most enterprising fellow-citizens, who is
himself interested that large stove foun,
dry is soon to be set on foot here, and viii
! be managed by company backed with
ample capital to drive successful business
We are not authorized to give any
further particulars, just yet, as the plan'
and details are not yet thoroughly deter

that the establishment of such an enterprise
at an early day is an absolute certainty
When further arrangements are made W.
