A TALL TENNESSEEAN
who Halls From Near Memphis.
Courier Journal. 18th.

The appearance yesterday afternoon
at the City Hall of an uncommonly
tall, lank individual had the effects
Of breaking The ennui which at times
at three o'clock is visible in the up
stairs departments. The individual
in question had with him a wife, who
carried a sucking babe and a chubby
little rascal Of about four years old.
Their appearance indicated plainly
that they were some unfortunate emf
grants seeking a pass to some other
point. The head of this little process
sion shaped up like a bean pole-in
fact, was SO thin through that had he
a pain anywhere between his hips and
neck it would have been difficult for
him to tell whether it was in the front
portion of his anatomy or the back.
He is a second Baby Bates, though of
an entirely different style in makeup.
He wanted to see the Mayor, but that
official was not in at the time, and he
and his family sat down to wait. The
reports of a veritable giant being in
the building spread through the de-
partments, and the unfortunate man
of size very soon had a large audience.
stood up at request, and his gaunt
figure lowered high up to the ceiling.
The man was evidently proud of his
and as to impress the bystand4
ers more deeply with theinsignifcance
of their shapes he sized up to a num-
Der of them, and during the time
crowed and chuckled ia a highly
amusing manner. He was fearfuIly
emaciated and his cheek bones showed
through the sallow skin, giving to the
features a most CHASTITY expression. In
answer to a question he said that his
name was VIM. r. Stith, and that he
was raised below Memphis. He and
his family had been down in Texas,
but had been run out by malaria and
we're making their way to his wife's
home in Morgan county, Indiana. He
is six feet seven inches tall, but in his
emanciated condition looks much
taller. He is about thirty. five years
of age and weighs but $50 pounds.
Before his recent severe illness he
weighed 299 pounds. When be was
seventeen years of age he weighed $50
pounds. In speaking of himself yes
terday he measured the tips Of his
fingers and sail he had but that much
lung power to go on, and that the
hollowness Of his chest might indicate
that there was a total absence Of that
part of the human economy. He,
however, seems to be in very good
spirits, and raked in 81 so on the exhi-
bition with considerable avidity.

THE SWEET GIRL TRAMPs
Still Wandering Around in the
Mountains of North
Carolina.

HENDERsONvILLE, August III
The six young girls who have started
out to walk across the mountains OF
this State, arrived at this place to.
day. The girls are in excellent spirits,
and Notwithstanding hat one Of the
youngest is foot SORE and a Ii tile the
worse from the plumber OF miles which
they have tramped, they are thor
oughly in earnest. The girls will re
main for a day or two to rest. AS soon
as Miss Bayliss RECEIVERS from her
CALLED foot they will resume their
journey, The girls are all sun
burned, and one or two of them
somewhat treckled. Even with
these disadvantages they are
quite attractive and were
greatly admired by the young men
in the villages through which they
passed. The pedestrians have been
on the road now about twenty days.
During that time they have camped
out four or FIVE nights, once in a desc
late forest in Surrey county. They
were disturbed in their sleep on that
occasion by some young bears that
were wandering about. The girls
held a short council of war, and came
to the conclusion that there was no
cause for alarm. Each of the fair
tramps is armed with a small bowie
knife and revolver, and two of them
look asif they were physically capa-
BILE OF taxing care Of themselves in
an encounter with nan or beast.
Miss Bette Dendar, who seems
to be commander in-chiet of the
party, says they have been kindly
treated wherever they have stopped.
Every house at which they have ap-
piled for lodging or food has been
thrown open to them. Miss Dendar
says that a few women have manifested
a disposition TO give them the cold
shoulder. These, however, she added,
were invariably spinsters who were
fading into the sere and yellow leaf
age. Upon the whole" said Miss
Dendar, I'VE have had a splendid
time, and though we have suffered
some privations we have been fully
repaid for our trip. The country
through which we have travelled is
the most magnificent | ever
saw. Tomorrow or the day following"
she added, we will resume our jour
ney, directing our course toward Bald
mountains. We have no very difnite
programme, and expect to go where
the most picturesque scenery invites
us" Two of the party are amateur
painters, and two others have some
talant for sketching. All Of the girls
are dressed with a view to comfort and
ease. They make ten or twelves miles
a day, They do not expect to return
from their trip before October 16.
