Northern men are arriving daily.
Seven families will arrive next week.

sire to locate South. We will insure

Now isn't this all too funny? 1t
rivals the choicest productions ofany
of the popular humorists of the day.
In fact, it contains so many pleasant
little freaks of fiction, we are con-
strained to point out few of them.
They have three hotels. McMinn-
vile has about six such, but we call
them boarding houses. The present
proprietor of the Warren House at
McMinnville is--in the midst of the
dullest season Of the year-strange to
say, very well satisfied with his profits
on the house.
Some two or three hundred visitors
stop at Tullahoma during the sum-
mer, the balance of the thousands
pass through that place on close con-
nections for Hurricane Springs,
Crisp Springs, McMinnville and other
summer resorts reached by the Nash
vile and Chattanooga railroad and
its branches. Likewise about ninety
nine and three-fourths out of every
one hundred of those car loads of ag-
ricultural implements, machinery,
ETC., pass on over the N. & G.. road,
or come up the McMinnville branch.
In regard to those business failures
in McMinnville, we venture the as
sertion that no other town in the
State of the same size can show fewer
failures in the past twenty years than
McMinnville. In enumerating Tul-
lahoma's numerous enterprises, we
don't see why the writer of the letter
failed to mention their National
Bank, unless it was from the fact
that McMinnville furnished the cash.
Ter and considerable of the cash to es-
tablish that institution.
The people and the press of Nc
Minnville have taken pleasure in
noting the rapid progress made by
Tullahoma in the past few years.
Our citizens have made no effort to
impede its growth, and we would
really like to- see our gushing neigh
bcr rank with us on either natural OF
artificial advantages, but its citizens
are pursuing a very mistaken course
in writing such letters as the above
to prospective settlers. When the
letter is compared with the facts, the
town fails to pan out. When town
is so hard up for advantages and re.
sources that it has to float its boom
on an effort to drag down its neigh.
bors, it is time to take in a little sal
and try another tack.

Special Notice in the spirit Of the Times"
august 30h, 1884.
This remedy is known far and wide as the
most successful ever discovered in cases Of
SPAWN and other hook lameness. OF course
it is well-known fact that chronic case
of SPAWN is virtually incurable; but even
such case can be greatly smeliorated by
using Kendall's remedy, while in cases Of
growing SPAWN they can be Immediately
removed by a few applications. 1t is also
an excellent remedy for rheumatism, en-.

CAIRO Jan. "a messenger who left

dispatches for Wolseley. He fell in with
armed natives at some wells enroute who
treated him in a friendly manner. The
country for eighty miles out from Korti is
open, but beyond that point is dangerous
from caravans of the Mahdi. These cara
vans frequently crossed the road.
A native guide had been
sent from Gokdul to purchase produce of the
natives, but he returned without anything,
and besides reported he had been badly
treatei British scouts captured four natives
who had left Metamneh January with goods
for Merawi. These men report that de-
tachment of Gen. Gordon's troops is at
Shendy. The Mahdi's force at Metamneh is
1000 strong. Major Kitseager. with a few
men, was scouting a few miles this
side of Gokdul. He captured
small party of natives with cames. He
went in pursuit of a convoy of seventy
camels and fifty natives on their way to the
Mahdi. The natives at first showed fight,
but dispersed, uttering loud cries when the
English charged them. Nine camels laden
with corn were captured.
