Free Trade,

The reduction of internal revenuc and
the taking off..of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers, as well
as relieving the burden of ho,ie manu-
facturers. Especially is this the case
with GREEN'S august Wo'oer and Boschee'S
German Syrup, as the reduction of thir-
ty six cents per dozen, has been added to
increase the size of the bottles contain
ing these remedies, thereby giving one-
fifth IN, re medicine in the 70 cent size.
The august Flower for Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint, and the German Syrup
for Cough and Lung troubles, have per.
haps, the largest sale Of any medicines in
the world. The advantage Of increased
size Of the bottles will be greatly appre-
ciated by the sick and afflicted. in every
town and village in civilized countries.
Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the

nes.ruetir. Fire a, Limestone.

Limestone suffered from a destructive
fire Monday night. The building occu-
pied by the firm of Gillespie & Bewley
was burned to the ground and with the
stock Of goods, is almost an entire loss.
About II O'Clock ON the night of the 4th
instant, the alarm of fire was given, but
the flames had made such progress that
all efforts to stay them were unavailing.
Messers. Gillespie s. Bewley had just
finished opening their new stock Of goods
on the day Of the file, and, as there was
no insurance on them the loss falls heavi-
ly. Out of a stock valued at $1,000 only
about $500 worth was saved. The safe,
which besides books and papers, con-
tanned nearly $1,000. was opened when
coolenough, and everything found intact.
The origin Of the fire is unknown, but
it is supposed to have originated from
spontaneous combustion. A number OF
barrels Of coal oil had been recently put
into the basement and the fire is said Ia
have broken out neal there. One of the
partnership. ~Bewley-was sleeping in
the store at the time, and the fire began
in the basement just below his bed
There had been no fires in the building
this fall.
On the night of the fire Mr.. Gillespie
was in Jonesboro, and was not informed
of the occurrence until the next day
when his friends here rendered hin
their sympathy for the firms heavy loss
The firm is an enterprising one, and W,
hope will be able to start again and hav,
such a run Of business this fall as viii
soon make good their losses.

A Gloomy Scene at washington College

Died. of dysentery, at Washington Col.

to be but the transparent element of good

Prior TO leaving home she was taken

a change of climate would better her
health, she consented to come to this
place and enter school. For a time she
improved, but OIL taking o relapse the bed
claimed her as its constant victim.
She had all the attention given her by
MIR. and Mrs. Strain, who have in charge
the departments of board and the fur
nishing of rooms, that could have been
given any one. The best of physicians
were employed and no medical skill was
spared in the attempt to restore her to
health. Her condition from the outset
seemed to be critical.

A farmer named P. Hill, living at
Corn ~postofice, near Montvale Springs,
recently purchased a farm of forty acres
from a widow lady in Happy Valley,
Blount county. Finding the surface
productions Of the place, the proprietor
thought there might be minerals of value
beneath and for some ten days has been
prospecting, and parties living in that
section claim that his efforts have been
rewarded with success. Any way. Hill
has for a few days past secretly taken a
prospector or two to a secluded spot on
the place and positively refused all out
side parties any near approach. The
farm is now being protected night and
day, and the numerous parties flecking
to the place are kept off by main force.
1t is thought there will be a gold Hill in
Blount before long.
Last Monday night, the 9th ult., Mr.
Hawkins who lives on the farm Of Ed.
Powell, in Poor Valley, Hawkins
ty, while walking around on his place
found in a fence corner three men eating
melons that they had stolen from his
patch. He approached them and de-
manded pay for the melons, whereupon
one Of the men drew his revolver and
fired two shots at Hawkins, both OF
which took effect. One ball made a
slight flesh wound, but the second pene-
trated his body, just under the left
shoulder blade, inflicsing a very serious
wound. The man escaped and up tC
