Vegetable Shipments to New YORK.
Editor Morning NelrS: The report of
the vegetable market from the New York
Producers Prices Current. published in
the NEWS of the 9th inst, contains criti-
cisms of the New York Agency of this
company so severe that beg the favor of
your columns for Mr.. YOnge's answer and
contradiction. The telegram appended is
positive. There was nOdel9y in discharg-
ing the Tallahassee" and ''City of Au-
gusra." the two steamers. that between
June ID and 9Th Sunday intervening },
landed $1,000 packages of vegetables and
fruit. besides their other heavy cargo. On
arrival of the steamers strong gangs of
StevedOres were put at work, and there
was absolutely no delay in taking out the
vegetables. always the first care.
The disappointment which has found
expression in these harsh publications
had for its real cause a demOraliZed mar
ket. heavily burdened with truck pouring
in BY all lines. Sales were comparatively
slow and prices not up TO expectations.
We contend that this company has be-
slowed unceasing and successful atten-
ton on this important part of its bust
ness. and has good ground for indignant
" repelling the charges of the New \ OTk
publications. Very respectfully,

MEMPHIS. May 20.-An atrocious,
cold-blooded murder was perpetrated
this afternoon under the following
circumstances: Yesterday Michael
Haley, who keeps a grocery store on
the corner of Gayoso and Desoto
streets, chastised his son, Pat, a
youth twenty years old, on the com.
plant of negro man named Dunlap,
the sexton of Avery Chapel. colored
church. Just after dinner to-day
young Haley went to the dwelling of
Dunlap, engaged him in a quarrel and
finally killed him with large butch.
erknife, almost severing his head from
his body. The murdered man was 70
years old. The murderer escaped.

Prof. Landreth, principal of engin-
eering at Vanderbilt University, has
proposed to State Commissioner Nc
Whittier to furnish instruction free of
charge to county officials throughout

department of public roads. The
Professor and the Commissioner agree
in the opinion that with the services
of educated engineers so furnished to
the various counties, road building in
this State would be greatly advanced
and much better roads secured.
Southern Industries: We doubt
the propriety of the legal fence in
Tennessee, established by our late
Legislature, whereby the barberous
barbed wire is made to fill the re,
quirement of the law. Such fences
should be positively interdicted by
law for all public highways, and
Bergh should stop their construction
as cross>fences, unless a plank or pole
should be placed at the top of each
line of fence, so as to warn stock OF
its presence and consequent danger.
or ditch constructed along its line
to answer the same purpose. We
prefer the no-fence law as infinitely
better and cheaper. Farmers who
cannot take care of their own stock
had better not have any.
