Civil Rights
OUR CORPORATION MUDDLE.
Brooklin had an investigation last
summer. It did not prove satisfac
tory to all parties, and they are now
having a law suit of indefinite length.
The flood came and cut us off from
the outside world, so to drive off
ennui we got up a corporation inves
tigation without any woman feature
in St, and every night last week, and
we don't know how long in the fu
ture, our town authorities and a
committee of our steady going citi
zens are giving an entertainment In
the Court House. The concern is
wll patronized ; but it is growing
rather dull. We stepped in a few
minutes, and after studying the per
sona dramatic awhile, we became
weary and left. We don't believe
anything will be developed by the
investigation. But as the affair is
conducted under the forms of law
we will say nothing to the prejudice
of any of the interested parties.
CIVIL RIGHTS.
This iniquity is now a law. Found
ed in hate, nurtured by fanaticism,
and consummated with a spirit of
revenge, it is ready to do its dirty
work.
We had hoped it would not get
through the Senate, but as it did, we
were not surprised that the Presi
dent signed the bill.
We can stand it in Tennessee, if
the white Radicals can. The great
trouble- is with tlie people further
South. The best way is to avoid
coming in conflict with the provis
ions of the law, when it is possible.
The negroes in this section of the
country will rot he any trouble. The
Southern people are called on now
to-show more fortitude than ever be
fore. Let ns show the workers of
iniquity that '.re ran live and he men.
We still have one consolat ion : " Ev
ery man's home is a castle,' which
the minions of despotism cannot yet
invade.
DAMAGES OF THE FLOOD.
It is impossible to approximate
the damages of the late flood. On
the waters of Chucky and French
Droad. almost all the mills were in
jured more or less by the breaking
of damp, race., etc. Fences, grain and
stock were swept away. Some land
was much injured by the loss of soil ;
at other points, a rich deposit of rich
loam will enhance the real value of
the land. Trie greatest damage and
inconvenience south of ns is the con
dition of the Buncombe railroad.
We can now form no idea how soon
the train can run on the road.
On Saturday Mr. John Easly suc
ceeded in getting a wagon through
from Thorn Hill, north of Clinch
mountain. He told us that every
thing that could be moved by water
was gone. A number of men are
at work on the road from Thorn Hill
to Clinch river and ho thought it
would be possible for wagons topass
Mondaj' or Tuesday.
We, who live on the dividing of
the waters between the HoUton and
French Broad had a fortaste of what
the raging element can do, but little
inconvenience resulted. Still oar
sympathy is none the less for our
friends and neighbors who have lost
bo heavily.

-1 SAD RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Last Thursday, about 6 o'clock,
p. m., a sad accident occurred on tire
East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia Railroad, at a bridge one mile
and a half west of Philadelphia.
The engineer, David Ilolloway, while
trying the new bridge, lost his life.
We find iff following statement
in the Knoxville Chronicle of Satur
day :
We met Conductor Elmore, who
had charge of the train, the engine
of which was wrecked,, and- got from
him the following report : He arriv
ed yesterrTay evening at the bridge
in question and found it not quite
completed. He reported to Road
master Benson, that some of his re
pairs on the road some three miles
bask were giving way. and were not
safe foT trains to pass oner, when
Mr. Benson sent a number of men
back with Elmore's train to make
the necessary repairs. Conductor
Elmore, however, remaining.
He came to the bridge a half mile
this side, where Roadmaster Moore
and Capt. Jaques were trying a bridge
they had just completed by running
a loaded flat over it, and finding it
give somewhat, Mr. Moore said he
would not risk an engine on his
bridge until he had further braced it.
About this time they could see that
the train had returned, and hearing
the engineer whistle off brakes, some
one remarked Benson is going to try
his bridge with the engine, to which
Mr. Elmore replied, he certainly is
not going to do that, but looking
they could see the engine advancing,
and having fairly gotten on the
the bridge, the headlight suddenly
disappeared and the crash was heard,
every one turning as white as a sheet.
Rnshing there and the true condi
tion of affairs being seen, Captain
Jaques was seen to weep like a child.
The general opinion is that Road
master Benson Is at fault in urgtng
the unfortunate man to attempt to
cross the bridge. It is stated that
Mr. Armbrustar, master of car re
pairs, pronounced the bridge unsafe
until better braced, but that Mr. Ben
son insisted it was safe. Engineer
Holloway hesitated about making ihe
attempt, anq considered it unsafe,
but was repeatedly called upon to
cross by Mr. Benson, who was on
this side of the cre-ek:. Finally the
engine was cut loose from the train,
and the engineer insisted on Jordon
Smith (the fireman) leaving the en
gine, stating that if there was any
danger one man was enough to be
killed. The fireman did not wish to
leave him, but the engineer-Insisted,
and being alone he started on his
perilous and last trip. As soon as
Live engine and tender had fairly got
ten on the bridge it gave way sud
denly, and the poor man was hurled
into eternity.
Before reaching the water he whis
tled on brakes. The above we gath
ered from different parties who were
near the scene, and from parties who
had a conversation with Smith, the
fireman. VV e failed to see Mr. Smith,
although inquiring for him, but sup
pose we have given about the facts
of the case.
The reporter of the Press and Her
ald had an interview with the fire
man of Mr. Holloway' s engine, A.J.
Smith. He said :
I was the fireman on Mr. IIo! Jo
way's engine. We left Knoxville on
No. 1 passenger train, last Wednes
day morning a week ago, for Chatta
nooga, but d-id not get any further
down than Athens, owing to the
breaks in the road. Yesterday af
ternoon we started up from four
iniles this sirle of Sweetwater, with a
train on which were a good many
passengers, and intended coming to
Knoxville. e ran on a little while
and then arrived at the bridge a mile
and a half west of Philadelphia, over
Sweetwater Creek. Mr. Benson's
party were at work 0.1 the bridge,
which had been carried off by the
flood. We wailed there about an
hour. The engine was standing
pretty near the bridge and Mr. Ben
eon (the road master of the Western
Division) ordered me to run her back
away from the bridge, as she was
making so much noise he could not
hear the workmen. I got on the en
gine and ran her back two or three
hundred yards.
The engine was disconnected from
the train, and Mr. Holloway was not
on it. About dark I learned that
the engine was to run over the bridge
to test it, and soon after I was sig
nalled by a lantern to go forward. I
moved the engine on slowly, and had
gone maybe half the distance to the
bridge when Mr. Holloway stepped
on her. He said to me, "Jud, you
need not go over the bridge unless
you want to ; if I were you I would
not go.:' I said I didn't know about
it. Just as we neared the bridge Mr.
Holloway said to me again, a tremor
in hia voice, "Jud, perhaps the bridge
may fall, and - something happen.
You had better get off; there is no
reason why you and I both should be
killed." I said then, that as ho in
sisted, I would go, and stepped off.
The engine went slowly on the
bridge. When it reached the central
portion, tight over the creek, I heard
a crash, and saw the bridge give way,
the tender fall into the water and
the engine double backward and fall
on the tender. As it went down I
heard the shriek of the whistle. I
suppose Mr Holloway started to
jsrmp, and his hand caught on the
whistle lever.
There were quite a number who
witnessed the accident. Capt. Jaques
was there, and Mr. Benson. After
a moment somebody hnliooed that
Mr. Holloway was in the creek, and
I hastened, with a seotion hand, in
to a skiff, and rowed some distance,
but only succeeded In finding his hat
which was floating down stream.
Then we came back and afterwards
discovered that Mr. Holloway had
been fastoned dowu between the
tender and the engine, and was dead.
I saw his body. He was caught
across hia breast, which was crushed.
We found it impossible to get the
body from under the enging. The
tender was at the bottom of the
creek, and the engine lay over it.the
body being out of the water.
Those of the passengers who had
not previously gone over the bridge,
were taken across the creek by boat,
and reaching a gravel train, , half a
mile away, wo came ou it to Knox
rille about one o'clock this rcornirg.
Said "Jud" Smith, in concluding :
"There was no nobler man ever liv
ed than Dave Holloway. He seemed
to fear that he would not get safely
over the bridge, and when he told
me the last time to get off the en
gine, his voice trembled so that he
could scarcely speak."
THE CAUSE $ THE ACCIDENT.
The portion of the bridge which
gave way was supported by a single
trestle, tmrJ as the engine came over
it, the sides of the trestle spread, thus
letting the structure iuto the creek.
Mr. Beuson has been road master of
the western division for a number of
years, and is credited with much ex
perience and ability. His responsi
bility for the accident is in propor
tion to the reliance placed in his
skill and judgment.
Mr. Holloway was raised six miles
South of this place. All who knew
him loved and respected him. The
Announcement of his death caused a
deep gloom in the entire community.
The sympathy of his acquaintances
for his wife and relatives is too deep
for expression,
David Holloway was a true hero.
But the thought of that heroism can
not soothe the grief-stricken widow.
The fact that he was a Christian can
bring consolation ; but still the fact
that it was not necessary for the road
master to urge him to cross the bridge
and sacrifice his life, leaves a dead
ening weight on the ffearts of his
friends, which at this early stage,
cannot be explained. Language rails
to convey any idea of the feelings of
the people of this commuuTt'. Mr.
Holloway was a worthy member of
the Morristown Masonic Lodge. He
also was a member of the Broad
Street M. E. Church, Knoxville. His
funeial took place Sunday afternoon.

KNOXVILLE.
Knoxville Chronicle, 4th
We regret to learn that Mr.
late Master of Transportation
East Tennessee, Virginia and
Railroad, is lying dangerously
Btrgart,
of the
Georgia
ill. He
has been sinking rapidly in tfce last few
weeks.
Rev. J. F. Goldman will visit Mary
ville on the second Saturday in this
mouth, and institute an Order of Good
Templars. Thirty-two charter members
await hi arrival. The Republican speaks
in fcke highest terms of his lecture at
that place.
Hon. J. M. Thornburgh arrived at
New Market yesterday, where he has
been summoned on account of the seri
ous illness of his mother. We regret to
hear of the illness of this most estimable
lady, and trust it may prove only tem
porary. We regret to learn that M. J. T.
Moore, former Freight Agent at the
Knoxville depot, died on Tuesday at his
residence in Sweetwater. Mr. Mooro
had been confined to his bed for months,
and during the last few weeks has been
constantly attended by his brother, Rev.
John Moore, of this city. He leaves a
large number of friends to mourn his
loss.
Mr. J. B. Hoxsie, it will be seen from
the dispatch of Capt. Jaques, has been
appointed Master of Transportation of
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia Railroad, vice Mrv'Bogart, resigned.
This is undoubtedly a splendid appoint
ment, for Mr. Hoxsie as a railroader ha.-
but lew equals, and we confidently be
lieve no superiors fie understands the
business thoroughly every branch of it
and we hoard but one opinion express
ed in regard to it yesterday, and that
was, that the Railroad Company was
fortunate in securing his services. He
is the right man in the right place, and
will make an efficient Master of Trans
portation. From tlie Press and Herald.
Next time there's an "opery" In the

the right to go up in the "culiud gal

"Jest so, Josiah!"
Hotel clerks who talk "sassy" to "cul

will remember there is a huge fine for
violating the Civil Rights Bill.
Some of out very respectable colored
barbers are greatly concerned at the idea
that the Civil Rights Bill may be appli
cable to their business, but we have to
assure them that their business is a trade
and not a public amusement" and that
urxi t no construction of the law can it
be made applicable to them. They have
the undoubted right, in the exercise of
their trade, to refuse to shave any one

We learn from RolfeS. Saunders, pro

ise, "Dorsey Golddust," bred by the il
lustrious breeder of this celebrated
stock. He is by "Old Golddust;" dam,
"Clara Messenger." He will be placed
in the stud the present season and then
put in trainning. We chronicle with
pleasure all such additions to. the fine
stock of East Tennessee and trust "Dor
sey Golddust" may prove himself worthy
the name he bears.
GREENE VILLE.
From the GreeneviUe lntelligoncer.
Mr. Cody, of Chucky, a very indus
trious and energetic young man, lost
about 800 bushels of corn, the greater
part of his summer's labor.
We have been requested to state that
the Fair of the Farmers and Mechanics
Association of Greene county, will be
held on the 29th and 30th of September,
and the first day of October.
The damages done the farmers on the
creeks and rivers of this section are very
heavy. They are much heavier in many
instances than the losses during the flood
of '67.
Farmers will be at immense expense
in making new fences, many of them
losing from a half to a mile and a half of
fence. Floods in this section work more
to the injury of the farmer than any
other class.
The small stream on the farm of Mr.
Alfred Reynolds, at the headwaters of
Lick Creek, rose to such a height as to
reach the roof of bis house, destroying
all hia goods. Mr. Reynolds barely
saved himself and family. A boy sick,
with the fever, was hastily removed to
the next neighbors, and is now in a pre
carious condition.
UNION.
From the Bristol Courier.
"Union Items" in the Bristol Courier:
The saddest thing that has ever occur
red in this part of the country, took
place last Saturday morning, about 11
o'clock. Miss Sallie Cf. aba, who was
living with her uncle and aunt hare in
town, committed suicide by hanging
herself. Temporary insanity is thought
to be the cause . She was a daughter of
Wm. Combs, who some year since, was
run over by the freight train near Yan
ce'a tank and killed The manner in
which he was killed gave bis daughter
great trouble. Some think that she has
never been rightly at herself since.

names as Jack Barnes, Bill and John
Price, and Dan and Bob Lawson. They
were charged with kukJuxing a little
negro, some trine ago, working with Mc
Elwee .
ATHENS.
From the Athens Post, 5th.
A little girl, daughter of T. L. Farrell,
who lives m the 2d civil district of this
county, was drowned in a branch of Se
we last Friday. The body was recov
ered. Of the thirty odd bridges in MeMina
county not one is left standing. All are
to rebuild either by the county or by
the citizens in the vicinity.
Our friend, Charley King, of the MA.
Verd farm", had twenty head of fine sheep
drowned during the late rise. His lands,
with the exception of the sedge fields,
are badly damaged .
We had something to say last week
about the freshet, and renew our remarks
to-day. At this place and immediate vi
cinity the damage is comparatively light.
Cleage's Grist Mill commenced running
again Tuesday. Loss not more than
$1,000. Mr. Getty's Tan Yard ia dam
aged in the loss of leather and some oth
er property about $1,0Q. Four thous
and dollars, we think, will cover the en
tire loss about the town.
Fivexf the prisoners confined in the
jail at thiaplace sawed ont of the iron
cage last Wednesday morning. Two of
the number succeeded ia getting outside
of the jail-yard, but had not made much
progress towards liberty when they were
intercepted by John Burnett, and re
turned to their old quarters . The saw,
no doubt, had been furnished them from
the outside.
From the Athens Weekly Sews, 6th.
We have received a communication

If the reader fails to find enough about
the flood of last week, in this issue, we
would respectfully refer him to the 7th

A lot of beef cattle was sold in this
market on Tuesday at 4 cents on foot.
We also heard of two lots of bacon
changing hands on the same day one
lot at 12 cents, the other at 12i cents,
hog round.
We 6haJl nst say what ought to be
done with a man that will throw in a
counterfeit nickel when the contribu

but our honest convictions are that his
chances for heaven are rafther slim.
If any of our readers believe that get

We are indebted to the Atlanta papers

From the Cleveland Herald, 4th .
During the past week a newspaper has

The DeLano House has been blessed
and "cussed" with from 40 to 60 water

A certain young fellow living near
Cleveland, felt the spirit move him the
other evening to go to hunt the calves.
Having stayed an unreasonable length
of time, his father became uneasy and
began search for his son. Upon inquiry
he found that he had gone in the direc
tion of a neighbor's house, at which
place the old man found him with his
head in his sweetheart's lap, asleep. Oh,
those good old days of hunting calves!
CHARLESTON.
From the Cleveland Herald. 4th.
The water has been one foot higher at
Charleston than it was in the great flood
of '67; and much more damage has been
done. There are four families in Cal
houn and twenty-two in Charleston that
are without house and home. The
new and elegant residence of Mr. Dod
son, near Charleston, which was just
finished and elegantly furnished was
picked up and carried about three miles
and left standing in a field. The
saw-mill aud carding machine of Mr.
Frank Gettys, near Calhoun, in McMinn
county, is washed entirely away and his
large flouring mill badly damaged.
Saulpaul'a saw-mill, on the river above
Charleston, was carried away.
Fourteen hundred bushels of wheat
which was stored away in the flouring
mill, saved it; but we can't say so much
for the wheat. Elkin's flouring mill
and saw-mill, on Roger's creek, four
miles from Calhoun, was entirely wash
ed away. John K. Brown, at Kin
cannon's ferry, on the Hiwaseee, lost
1200 bushels of corn. Also a stock of
goods at that place was badly damaged.
rive nouBes in unarleston were
moved a considerable distance from their
places, and some of them almost destroy
ed. Mr. E. F. Martin, of Calhoun,
was driven from his house by the water
and says he is never going to return .
His goods were badly damaged and his
store house Injured. ' The amount
of damage done to real estate along Hi
wassee can hardly be estimated as the
highest tide was head water and ran
with great force washing the bottoms
badly.
MARYVILLE.
From the Maryvilte Republican, 9th .
We were pained to learn Thursday,
last, that Mr. Benjamin F. Woodside, a
merchant at Chilhowee, In this county,
was drowned in Abram's Creek about
noon, last Wednesday. We got the fol
lowing particulars of this unfortunate
occurrence from Dr. James Martin.
Mr. Woodside and a young son of Mr.
Boyd McMurray'e weie crossing Ab
rams Creek, a snort distance where it
empties into Little Tennessee River,
using a rope, stretched across to pull the
canoe over. The canoe upset. Mr.
Woodside becoming entangled in the
rope was swept under the water and was
drowned, his body remaining fastened to
the rope until rescued. Youajj McMur
ray reached the bank in safety.
Why do people dose themselves

They act like magio no poisonous
