FROM CHATTANOOGA.
Lookout Point, July 31.
Editor Gautte:
I came to Chattanooga Ju'y 6th,
aud made my way to Lookout Point
among the clouds and found it cool
aud pleasant. On last Saturday af
ternoon I took in the valley in which
Chattanooga is located.
Upon inquiry of strangers in dif
ferent portions of the city I was di
rected to the Penny Saving’s Bank,
which is entirely controlled by Ne
groes. and it is a credit to Chatta
nooga.
I visited Mr. Dorris’ p’aceof busi
ness and chatted a few moments. I
found him a gentleman of culture.
I was then direjted to Drs. Love
and Perry’s office, the coming phy
sicians of the city, where I was cor
dially entertained.
I then took a flight to the moun
tain, aud on Sunday evening I was
honored with a call in the person of
J. Q. A. Erwin.
Tuesday evening Lookout Point
was visited by Drs. Love aud Perry,
and Professor Hastings, accompaning
some of Chattanooga’s fairest maids.
Supplied with Field glasses they
viewed the magnificent city of Chat
tanooga below.
Then the conductor called out ‘ all
abode,” and we left for Suus< t Park
and the Natural Bridge, and viewiug
the sights of natures handwork we
climbed the rocks and crossed the
bridge. The conductor again called
out “all abode,” and I left the happy
party roaming in the mountains.
You shall hear from me again soon

Little Lydia Aon Williams, aged
9 years, was brutally outraged about
1 o’clock, Wednesday nearTrianaby
Charlie Arnett, the husband of her
aunt.
It seems that the little girl was em -
ployed as a nurse in the family and
Wednesday she was left alone to at
tend the baby, while Arnett’s wife
went away visiting some of the neigh
bors. During her absence the brute
accomplished his devilish deed on the
innocent little g*rl.
He weighs about 160 pounds, dark

this writing is still at large.

Col. A. E. Ashford, of Lawrence coun
ty, formally announced his candidacy for
Congress, “subject to the approval of a
majority of the Alliance men of the 8th
Alabama District ”
The announcement was made in the
Moulton Advertiser. Jourd Wldte’s ed>
torial columns were as silent as a grave
yard as to the announcement. Certainly
the hero of many bard fought battles for
the grand principles of the Democratic
party is between the devil and the tire
works. We say to you Jourd, that iu the
course of human events you must open
up your now silent battery. We will
read your columns prayerfully next week,
Jourd, and may the Lord help you.
