Of the transit ON Wednesday last. We
were asked by several how it became
known that the event would occur and
when we informed them that it was mat
ter Of calculation, the same as any other
eclipse Of the sun, which in reality it was
and by q much larger body than the moon,
cur remark was not accepted by all as be-
ing probnbly true. 1t is no discredit to
report this for the communities are few that
do not possess individuals as far from being
confident in the cAaClncss Of Astronomy
as science.
The reports from the various scientific
stations are favorable and it is probable
that the observations made will givea very

sun to the earth, this being the object in
view, in sending ont SO many bodies of

has more promise of prosper
ity. Cullman is the only settle
ment through its apprenticeship,
and is doing and will do well.
Gruetli has had a very hard struggle,
but the latest accounts speak favor
ably of her final success. Of the
other settlements slow but sure
progress is the order; not one is
rushing ahead on a boom, and taking
success by storm. Rugby has had
too much of a boom, or rather too
poor hackers, and has, like an over
forward child, been set back. The
discipline though severe, has, per-
haps, been good, while the growth,
certainly, will be all the sounder.
What we got out of the Board at
starting was, assuredly, far more
than what usually falls to the lot of
settlements in their early days, and
we must look upon the circumstance
as last "spoiling of the Egyptians. y
With the Mortgages, who are acting
as very conservative landowners, our
perfect climate, our adaptable soil,
and our own individual energetic
efforts, we shall, we know, eventually
pull through. We must not depend
upon Board, or Mortgages; the
former are up a very tall tree, and
the latter are mere settlers with
ourselves, therefore, as other places
with energetic people and good sur
roundings have grown, Rugby will
grow.

THE Cincinnati Southern Railway
whilst being one of the finest rail
road arteries in the Union, does not,
through it's management, give that
satisfaction to the section of country
it runs through, naturally anticipated
of so fine a property, and the Syndi-
cate controlling it. 1t is manifestly
the first and foremost object, or
should be, of a railroad company to
assist in developing, to the utmost
extent, the district through which
it's rails run; whilst an opposite
policy Of apparent Indifference, and
high freight charges, arising from
no competing line, is short-sighted,
and one that cannot be maintained
unless bankruptcy is the end sought.
AS local instance illustrating
our case we would refer to the
closing down of the Crook coal
mines at Glen Mary, which, whilst
we admit can be only temporary is
still blow to enterprise one would
not expect as the result of railway
management on a line where every
inducement is required to entice
capital to its support. High freight
charges have stopped the Glen Mary
mines.
1t is to be hoped, for the good OF
our surrounding country, and the
credit of the Cincinnati Southern,
that the negotiations now in progress
between the railway management
and the Glen Mary company will
result in giving such terms as will
make profitable the working of oul
prolific coal measures. By the last
railway report, the mountainregiono Of
the line has given the largest return

We read that an association has
been incorporated at Boston for
the purpose of colonizing Palestine

object, and we hope the Bostonians
will be, at least, as successful in that
distant part of the globe, as they
were in their philanthropic intention
of colonizing the Cumberland plateau
with "culchaw," and sweetness and
light" some three or four years ago.

THAT East Tennessee, is destined to
be the great central manufacturing
district of this country, there can be
no doubt. With seemingly an in

wealth which nature has so lavishly
bestowed upon this section will be
utilized. -MvristoaOn Gazette.
