EastIako Frescoes.

The beautiful frescoing of the walls Of
the Farmers & Merchants Bank, Is an
object Of great admiration by the public.
The work has been done by Messrs.
Schroeder Bros, 40 s. Spring street, in a
most capital and artistic manner When
1t is known that the work had to be all
done in eight days, II is wonder that ii
was done so we'll. The frescoing is done
in Eastlake style, and is fine exhibition
OF the talent Of the Messrs. Schroeder.
1t must also be considered that in
building like that OF this banking house,
il is not possible for fresco artist to
elaborate any large and striking per
speciivo designs, but he has to content
himself with but little perspective, which
must be heightened by intensity OF col
ors, and their delicate combinations, in
order to produce the most pleasing emo
tions. This result has been happily ac-
complished by these excellent artists,
and the work stands monument Of
their good judgment and taste. nl-lm

4 BRIGHT FUTURE FOR EAST
t" TENNESSEE.
London Sun


East Tennessee and Alabama is
just now attracting more attention
than any other sections of country
/ in the whole South. The immense
deposits of various ores and coal and
the comparatively easy access to
them arc catching the eye of north
ern capitalists. New mines arc ev-
cry day being opened and new and
costly furnaces and rolling mills are
being erected at various points.
Capital is pouring in at an enor-
nous rate, and if it does nothing
better than continue to flow in at
the present rate, at no distant day
we may view from every hilltop the
smoke from the iron furnaces and
the various manufacturing concerns
as it curls up from the valleys be-
meath us.
East Tennessee is a paradise for
all manner of wood manufacturing
and we are astonished that it is not
already crowded with such enter
prises. The scarcity of timber, high
price of labor and transportation are
all burdens under which the East
ern manr facturers are laboring and
when thrown into competition with
Southern, and especially East Ten
nessee factories, these burdens will
most assuredly prove too much for
them.

are never imatIted or cOunterfetted. This
is especially true of family medicine,

soon as it had been tested and proved by

the purest, best and most valuable fam
lily medicine an earth. many limitations
sprung up and began to steal the notices

vised names in which the word Hop
or Chops" were used in Il way to induce
people to b lieve they were the same as

edies or cures, no matter what their

with the word Hop" or Hops" in

none of them. Use nothing but genuine

TIE PANIC IN RIoHMoND.
THE ASSAULT ON THE POLICE CA.
TAIN's DUGHTER EXPLAINED.


RICHMOND, April 26-The mys-
terious assaults upon Miss Parater,
which yesterday evening gave the
climax to the excitement in Rich
mond over the bold burglaries, were
explained to-day by the discovery
that the young lady's mind had be-
come unchanged, and that she had
committed the assaults upon her
self Her father is Captain of the
police force in the district in which
the series of depredations have &C.
Cured, extending over month
past, and he has, especially in the
past two weeks been out,all night
with his men endeavoring to get on
the track of the burglars. The fact
that he was thus engaged, and the
intelligence of new burglaries
wrought upon her mind, and she
was possessed with the idea that her
father would be assassinated. 1t
turns out that, in addition to this
great strain upon her mind, she had
gotten hold of many sensational
books, among which was found this
morning "The Boy Detective; or
Dreaded Tom,", which she had been
reading the past week. 1t is sur
missed that she had read and remem-
bered Lady Florence Dixie's &C
count of the assault upon herself,
for she had slashed her clothing in
almost the same way, and the cut
upon her corset was almost identical
with that on Lady Dixie's. Physi-
clans who examined her this morn
ing pronounce her suffering from
mental alteration, caused by ankle
ty for her fathers safety and fright
over the depredations of the buglars
She is very pretty and only 16 years
of age. She still adheres firmly tC
her first statements about the affair
and the utmost cross examination
has not caused her to vary in the
slightest degree.

SORROWS, STORMS AND POR-
TENTS
Memphis Appeal.

Memphis Appeal.
The sad details of death, suffering
and loss, caused by this weeks
storm over considerable portion of
the South, again recall attention to
peculiarities of weather that for
many months have been perceptible
in various parts of the world. Most
readers will remember that little
while ago there was an unusual
number If planets clustering about
the same time in their nearest prox-
unity to the sun, their perihelion,
There is a certain number of wealth
err observers who are of opinion
that the position of the planets, as
in opposition, conjunction, etc, have
a powerful influence upon the wealth
er. These thinkers predicted with
great confidence, and a considerable
time before the clustering of the
planets, that the phenomenon, q
very rare one, would be followed by
unusual weather disturbances and
violent meteorologic occurrences.
The Canadian Virgins belongs to
this class of thinkers, and he has
done more than. anyone else to
make the theory he supported un-
popular, but, as to the predictions
of those who argued from the ap-
proach of certain planets, especially
Jupiter and Saturn, to their peri
helion that phenomenal weather
disturbances would follow, whether
these were lucky guesses as Wig
gins's was an unlucky one, We can
not say, but certainly the world for
many months back has had a series
of tempests, hurricanes cyclones,
earthquakes, floods and other ele-
lmentary terrors and destructive oc-
currenees very unusual in the same
space of time. And now has to be
added to the rest the awful cyclone
of the present week, with hearts be-
reaved of their loved ones, sufferers
with broken bones and bruised bod
les, homes ruined and the very ma
terials Of their structure carried off
in the hurting storm, soaring aloft
on the unclaimed winds, and the
forests leveled as though by a veng-
ful seythe. The readers of Josephus
and other ancient authors can
scarcely help calling to mind the
natural prodigies they relate that
preceded the destruction at Jerusa-
lem, and the commencement of
those fearful connections and out
breaks, and assumption of power by
the armies that aided in the de-
struetion of the Roman power
signs in heaven and on earth, and.
the hearts Of men failing them
through fear. NJ
