The New South

The south was once afflicted with
Oriental lethargy, her land owners sit
ting in the shade and directing how the
rich lands should be made to yield up
fortunes. The forces that have been in
operation to change this order of things
are telling nightly now. The soil no
longer yields apace and mems energies
have walked up, yawned and are stretch
ing out into other fields. Careless cul-
ture has made the bottom OF the Great
Gulf rich with a washe d-off soil, and
gradually have other mems been sought
fer riches. The vim and energy of our
northern neighbors is being imbibed
and they are coming here themselves to
be in at the dawn of new things. Mills,
factories and new industries are spring.
ing up in every direction. The trade
journals and industrial publications are
| full of the record of building and new
venturings, and here and there all over
the south a new paper springs up de-
voted entirely to a special industry,
called into being by the growing neces-
sity of its particular work. They were
unheard-of few years ago. The I'M
precedented crops of this year is the
greatest impetus this new departure
has ever had and the great excess of
capital this fall will be placed largely
in manufacturing enterprises. This is
no speculation we are getting the proof
every day that these things are being
actually done. There is not state in
the south that approaches Tennessee in
natural means and her future is more
promising than any of them, because
she has more productive lands, better
transportation facilities, and is richer on
top of the ground and underneath the
ground than any of them. We sit here
idle out in the country and do not see
and refuse to believe that these things
are coming with steady tread. Nashville
is flooded with capital and the trowel
rings all over the city, and the rumb-
ling of machinery nd trundling of
drays and hum OF hurrytng crowds tell
OF the mighty march of progress. Men
are growing rich and poor men live
better and no ono need suffer. Nash
vile will make more money in the next
twelve months than she made in her
whole history before the war. Chatta-
nooga goes up like magic. The noun
tains are peopled with busy miners,
and the towns are being crowded with
workingmen. Farmers are getting
better prices for produce because it is
being consumed at home and freights
are saved. These things are all true.
Does Pulaski feel it? If she does not
align herself in the march of progress
she will be left. There is a new spirit |
rife in our midst ard the first great |
work is being done-the building of
pixies. Is there a factory to be built ?
Is there a new industry you can assist
Can you not give preference to home
production? Ifyou have few hundred
dollars idle, club it with others and put
10 to work

Only Three Hundred.

Correspondents OF the courier - ourhal'
KNOXVILLE, July17.-The bolt in
East Tennessee, never amounting to
the dignity of notice, is small
1t will be remembered that II. II.
Ingersoll, the most prominent East
Tennessean identified or in sym
pathy with the boilers, opposed a
nomination in the preliminary coun-
sci at the capitol. He did not at
tend the convention subsequently,
and not being committed in any way
to Russell, will probably vote for
Bate. His expressions since the
bolter' nomination lead to that con-
clusion. There are, perhaps, more
boilers in Knoxville and in Knox
county than in any East Tennessee
county above Chattanooga, and
after an exhaustive search only
eighteen can be numbered here.
Authentic reports from the several
counties of East Tennessee sum up
less thanI300 Fussellites in the whole
division of the state. There are no
Greenbackers, and consequently no
Beasly men, east of the mountains.
Bate will get more votes out of the
republican party than he will lose
in his own.

Gen. PAYNE,

WACO, TEXAS, De C. %, 1851
Can you inform me of the wherea-
bout of one, Gen. Payne, who fig
ured around Gallatin, Tenn, and
Paducah, KY, during the war.
Many old confederate soldiers
would like to know. j. r.
Answer-We do not know
where he is or what has become of
him Courier-Journal.
Gen. Payne is living at Monticel-
10, ILL.,, broken down in health, and
in the fortune that he stole from
our people during the war. He
thriYed on a big scale and muir
dered upward of a hundred of our
citizens in cold blood, without even
the formality of a trial We have
no doubt that the ghosts of his
victims haunt him day and night.
He occasionally writes letters to
those of our citizens whom he plum
dered, offering for small sums to
give his testimony in case they are
making claim against the govern
ment. The last letter we saw prot
fered to swear through for ten dol
lars, but his word is not good for q
straw at Washington. He is being
punished some in this world and
the balance in the next Gallatin
Examiner.
He is the miserable wretch who
murdered the chivalric John r.
MoSSav- with two other oil zopS of
Fayetteville, without the least shad-
ow Of reason for it. He was the
monumental murderer of the war
and rs his withered old soul trem-
bles in alright upon the banks of
perdition, the hounds that guard
the lurid gate lap their greasy chops
waiting to lick the leprous ghost as
it goes shrieking through the dis
nal portals.

1t is said that the Hawkins and Fus-
sell committees have made arrange
ments to get up a list of appointments
and leave Bate out. Won't they have a
picnic? Russell is going along to
scotch for Hawkins. He is afraid to
meet Bate upon the stump because he
knows, as does every other person ac-
quainted with his abilities, that he can
not begin to cope with him. We hope
this trade has not been made, for the
credit OF the Boilers themselves. Beas-
ley Is TO go with them and the trio are
to work in a spike team, Hawkins in
the lead, all pulling together against
democracy.

Jonesboro Journal: In this coun.
'ty at the last gubernatorial election
Wright received 1,340 votes, and
Wilson 260, but the tables have
slightly turned, and we do-not hon
estly believe that there is a demo
crat in this county but what will
vote for Bate. If Russell gets any
votes in this county we do not
know where they are to come from.
We believe Gen. Bate will get
good :share of the republican
vote, especially that portion that
are opposed to extra-session Haw-
kins and his 6O-6 platform, and in
this county there are great many
of them. Let the Bate men stick to
their party in Middle and West
Tennessee, and East Tennessee will
roll up a large majority at the No
vember election for Gen. Bate

Haywood county, entitled to is
Representatives in the Boilers con
vention, was represented by j. r.
Bond. all alone. The Democrat
says the reason they did not get
the news from the Boilers nomina-
ton in Brownsville sooner, was be-
cause the single member of that
convention from the county did not
have anybody to send the telegram
to. He is going it strictly alone.
We admire his pluck and sincerity
and wish lie did have another mem
Der of his party to confer yith. 1t
is so internally lonesome to DO a
whole political party by yourself.

The editor of the Banner is nc

The editor OF the Banner is not a safe
adviser. He has been foremost in i'm
probabilities and is always after a
chimera. The most stupid blunder OF
modern times was the failure to nOmi-
nate Tilden the second time, aud the
American then under the editorship of
Col. Doak helped to compass this eyre
gious mistake. Later, he whipped in
boilers from the party with a lash OF
forked wire, twisted and red-hot, to
save the country from republican mis-
rule. There was no danger of republic
can misrule in Tennessee then. Now
we have it in all its enormIty, and the
editor OF the Banner is traversing his
own logic and seeking by all manner Of
means to continue that very republican
misrule. His calculation is that the
people are stupid and viii be led by
the nose.

Even the prohibitionists themselves
do not commit the absurdity of "oppos-
ing tho repeal of the four-mile law"
They knew it was not in any danger,
and if it had been they are its rightful
champions. Yet these temperance
men did not tear their hair and trem-
bic for its safety. What was it that
worked these Boilers into such frenzy
OF fear, that they must snatch the
shield from its rightful protectors and
hold it up before this righteous law to

Cheatham led the democrats against
Andy johnson, and denounced MIN all
over the state as Bolter. Wright did
the same in 1880 against Wilson. Now
we have Cheatham and Wright both
Boilers from that same party, one per-

man of the Boilers convention. Both
OF these bolts elected republican. Let
the people stamp this one out.

walking along the i. & n. track in
Kentucky the other night and saw a
tree blown across it. He hastily built
fire and tagged passenger train just
in time. The company gave the heroic

good sum of money and a free pass at
will. Little boys in that section now
patrol the track every night looking
vainly for fallen trees.

Mrs. Folks bonds were given to her
by her husband in 1649, before a rail-
road bond was issued, and is therefore
a part of the state debt proper. The
resolution agreeing to pay them in full
was superfluous, as they were already
provided for under the clause to pay
the proper debt in full, and the accusa-
ton of class legislation is therefore re-
futed by the facts.
