lords in making their tenants raise
cotton and buy their meat and bread

Huntsville in the Van! The Sol
i'd Men of our City Meet at
the Court House Telling
in Words and Proving
by Their Actions
TIL lat THE n. d N. A. X. II. SHALL BE
BUILT.

From The Daily Murcury.
1t was business meeting, conducted
on business principles and attended by
our wide awake buslnes men, that was
held in the Court House yesterday.
The preliminaries were simple for the
determined look which flashed from the
eyes of our business men told plainly
they had assembled there to talk busi-
ness, only this and nothing else
capt. Milton Humes was called to the
chair, and with few words well put,
this eloquent gentleman stated the OBJ
ject OF the meeting.
o. X. Hundley, Esq, in plain, matter
of fact, but withal forcible manner urged
upon the people the necessity of imme-
diate action He told them that two
courses were open to pursue, one to sub
scribe for $4,000 worth of stock, the
other, TO give the n. & G. Railway Co, a
bonus OF 40,0O0, to complete the road
from Flora to Huntsville. AS Mr.. Humid
ley had talked the matter over with
from Mr.. Thomas the assurance that not
one cent OF the $4,000 would be asked
for until the road was completed and
trains running into Huntsville
Hon. Ed l. Mastin followed Mr.
Hundley in clear earnest speech in
which he called upon his fellow-citizens
to cease mourning over the ashes of then
ancestors, and rouse themselves for aC-
ton. What good did it do the present
generation if their fathers lost all the
stock they subscribed for in the NJ. & G.
R.R? Huntsville was losing more than
SAC, 900 year in excessive freight charges
lust because there was no competition.
The time for action had arrived, and il
Huntsville must ever hope to make
stand amongst enterprising cities she
must act now. He was one OF the com
mittee who met the Railway nagnates at
Nashville. and he confirmed every word
of Mr.. HundIey's statement concerning
the bo,tIs OF so, 600, that not one cent Of
il would be asked for until the trains on
the road entered the corporate limits Of
the city.
II so 900 would be assured, the y. d
C. roaG would commence III 30 days and
finish in IA months.
Col. Holding in a few practical remarks
cave those present to understand that he
was in favor oil the new line OF road, and
he proved it by subscribing on the spot.
The subscription books were then
opened and about $4,000, we.e sub
scrihed.
Hon. Milton llumes- appointed the
following
COMMITTEE ON SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Messrs. A. Campbell, G. II. Halsey,
". T, Duncan, O. X. Hundley, K. T.

strong against allowing the English TO
bulldoze the American government.
The meeting was informed that seve.
raj Irish merchants in our ranks had
agreed to furnish enough money to fit
our vessel. "The Ireland's Hope"
which was fitted about twenty years
ago and sent to Ireland with officers
and arms, was mentioned, and the Bos-

better now and send more formida-

A proposition was made to fit out a
fishing vessel and dare the English
Canadians to interfere. 1t was thought
that crisis could be precipitated in
this way. The proposition was not
adopted and there was a disposition to
lay it over, for there is to be another
meeting shortly, but not in Boston.
Several members said it would be a
good idea to make the imperial gov

who have taken an active part in

Ireland and in America, were asked
Tuesday to give synopsis of what
was done at the conference in Boston.
First they announced that conference
was matter of no public Importance,
but on being assured that their news
would not be made public, they became
more communicative and said: "The
possible action of the American govern
ment on the fisheries, said one gen.
tleman, had been discussed by the
delegates for the past ten years. The
physical force party has been directing
its energies to forming purely mill

of England getting into difficulty
abroad would be utilized to harass her
