The FIRST MONDAY III Apr
Sees a Fine Display.
A Procession or BIoOded Stock Nearly
Half Mile Long.
On last Monday the Annual Stock
Show OF Maury County took place,
and in consequence of this event the
city was filled with people from all
parts of the country. Many from ad-
Joining counties came here for the
purpose of seeing the greatest show
on earth and they were well repaid
for their trouble and expense in COM
ing.
There were some of the best strains
of blood in the State exhibited, ana
there were some not so good, ana
still others too Indifferent 10 hold me
gaze of the spectator. Fully SlOO,OUO
was represented in the procession OF
fine horses and Jacks, but we regret
to say that good view Of the show
could not be had OH account OF the
dense clouds of dust which arose
with every gust of wind, filling the
eyes, ears ard nose, aud otherwise
rendering the spectator so uncom-
Portable, that he had little time Tor
anything but self protection. The
reference to the dust IS made paren-
thetically, that the paternal heart CT
our city rulers may yearn III sympa-
thy for the distress occasloned Tor the
want of a system of street sprlnkllnS.
The procession formed at the juno
ture of North Main and Sixth Street,
proceeding up Sixth to Duunlng-
ION. thence to West Seventh,
thence to Embargo, thence to Sixth,
thence up Sixth TO the starting point.

tie disappointment, that the Ash
