Col. Rolfe S. Saunders, of Nashville,
stopped off for few hours yesterday eve
ming, at the Hattie House, and left for New
York last night. They go there to organize
company for the construction of

prise Judge Fry is the promoter. This
is one of the most important steps in the
interest of Southern travel and navigation

canal across the country, only 81 miles in
length, it will shorten the distance around
the Florida coast S14 miles, which is the
toughest and most dangerous point of nava-
cation on the entire American coast. 1t is

Mr. Walter Mcpherson, Springfield,
Mass, writes. Il have been peculiarly un-
fortunate id We. Ny guardian robbed me
of the fortune left me py my father, and at
the age of 21 found myself poor in purse
and poor in health. I married young girl
whose health soon broke down from over
work and household cares Our six chill
dren gave her great trouble, and were very
puny and sickly. My doctor bills were
larger than both grocery and dry goods bills
together. Last year brought home bot
tie of Browns Iron Bitters for my wife.
She used it and gave it to the children-I
also used it myself. Never did | imagine
such miraculous change from ill-health to
perfect health possible"

Excellent Fruit.

The finest peaches we have seen this sea-
son were some sent by express yesterday
evening to the Hattie House, from the
orchard of Mr.. A. w. Ward, Loudon. We
understand that Mr. Ward is making quite
a success out of his orchard business, in
connection with his nursery, and deserves
much credit for the energy and perseverance
he has displayed in connection with
the fruit business in this section
His shipments this season, we learn, COM
menced about the 5th instant, and will
amount to about 500 bushels, and are from
trees set out in the spring of 1878, on land
that was of small value for other purposes
The prices received for peaches he has ship
ped to Cincinnati, Knoxville and other
places, will average $3.50 per bushel, and
the seasons sales will average enough to
pay the cost of trees, cost of attention to
them and rent of ground since they were
set out,

The Gas Committees Dark Hours.

The gas committee of the city council
have in force, as is known. dark hour sys-
tenn. by which they regulate the lighting
and extinguishing of the public gas lights.
But it is fact, perhaps not known by the
most of people who keep regular hours,
yet perfectly familiar to newspaper workers
and others accustomed to being up and
rambling around through the streets after
night, that there is very loHse management
somewhere in that business. 1t is notori-
GUS fact, frequently complained of, that
very often, if not all the time, the gas is not
lighted until long after dark at night, and
then it is extinguished, and the city left In
darkness, at very unreasonable hour in the
morning, especially for parties who
have to attend the trains and be about
the streets at those hours. We have
heard frequent complaints from parties at
tending church on Sunday nights, when
there is no moonlight and when there is
total darkness. An instance of the incon-
venience and even danger of extinguishing
the lights before the darkness has fled in
the morning, occurred to a CHRONICLE boy,
who conveys the mails to the train, some
time since. 1t was dark and cloudy night,
and the city was left in pitch darkness be-
fore 8 o'clock. He was in hurry, and ran
against corner on Gay street, hurting
himself badly, and as consequence
the mail was missed These matters de-
serve the attention of the chairman of the
gas committee, who has charge of it. 1t is
certainly his duty, and he is to be commend
ed for using every effort to protect the city's
interests in this important matter, but it
should certainly not be done at the sacrifice
of the convenience of SO many citizens
