A couple of men arrived in this city on
Monday night, direct trom some poiut in
Southern Alabama, from whence they had
come all the way on bat ; thoy were for
eigners, one being a Dane and the other a
Swiss, and neither of them could speak
English. They were in the most extremo
destitution ragged, bare-foot and dirty.
They said they had traded oft all their
good clothes along the way fat tho moans
of subsistence, and seemed very anxious,
as well they might, to obtain employment.
They were provided for, we understand,
by a gentleman in North Nashville, and
will undoubtedly obtain work in some ca
pacity. Next Wednesday is Burns' day, and wo
learn that preparations are !eing made to
celebrate its recurrence in a manner be
fitting Scotia's favorite bard.

They are painted and decorated very

painting on the outside of one, occupying
several pannels in the centre, which was
really an elegant production of art It
was, we should judge, a Swiss scene, and
embraced a most fascinating landscape
view, besides a herd of cattle, a wateiing
trough, cottages, children gathering flow
ers, and many other points, the whole
painted in very natural colors and buried
beneath a heavy coating of transparent
varnish, which gave an effect equal to
Frenoh glass.
A very heavy train of freight passed
southward yesterday. It contained a cargo
of miscellaneous goods, destined for va
rious points southward.
Business men and others in the country
below here, can certainly find no room for
complaint on account of a delay of their
freight at this point The utmost dispatch
and promptness is used here in the matter
of forwarding. Our attention was parti
cularly called to this the other day; when
at the Louisville depot & big train cf
freight just arrived, and having occasion
to at once visit the Chattanooga and Paci
fic depots, we found upon our arrival, the
identical oars that were designed to go fur
ther south, all switched np with many
others, engine bitched on, and fairly ready
for a start towards the Gull. We said to
ourself that this indicated "business, "and
we believe so still.
There was more down freight at the

pots on Saturday last than there has been
on any day before, for two yeais.

Criminal Court The murder case of

murdering his father-in-law by shooting
nearly a year since. He is a negro, of
black skin meli tin statute, prominent
features and sullen countenance, about
thirty or thirty-five years of ago. We have
heard but little of the evidence thus far,
and know but little of its character. We
can only say that Morgan is unfortunate in
possessing one of the worst looking faces
we ever saw.

The Blondes commence an engagement
nt Masonic Hall on Thursday night, and if
we are to judge by the criticisms of the
press everywhere, we are to have a rare
dramatic feast. Tho Atlanta FuUUiyrncer
of a recent date says :
DeGive's Opera House was indeed once
more the "theatre of attraction.'' for
last night the very brilliant and nehareke
performance of the burl sa, pie of "Pluto"
or the Magic Lyre, provided amusement
tor the evening and food for the imagina
tion for a large and appreciative, and we
may say, very select audienoe. Tho play
was a reproduction for this season at the
Opera House, but the first presentation by
Miss Lis Weber's popular t'urlesqners,and
we can justly say, tendered inferior to
none. Miss Lisa impersonated Orpheus,
the Young God of Music, and though the
part, as it is written, comprises too
much versatality to admit of an elaborate
display of musical talent, yet the bril
liant young representative illustrated her
fondness for the long lest Enrydice in the
most perfect manner in burlesque, and
though the "trees did not bend their lofty
branches" nor the Styx stay Us course, be
cause of his enchanting music, the audi
ence bowed their approval of Miss Lisa's
rendition of the part from the first intro
duction of her lithe and elegant form on
the stage, and throngh the varied scenes
which she was made to pass, even to his
Satanic Majesty's domain, while in pursuit
of the object of her immutable love.
The (MsM mtiiait'irvm concerning Miss
Weber is, she is first endowed with beauty
of features and foim, versatile, reads well,
her peiformauce is ah pudore, and her
much envied reputation .n.v tn.he, and
withal a snceessfnl yonng manageress.
Miss CassieTroy as "Arisbens" attracted
much attention in ber sportive and amus
ing part. Miss Hattie O'Neal as the cov
eted "Eurydice ' is deserving of notice,
and Messrs. Ketchnm, Vincent and Atkins
were commensurate with the task of sus
taining their reputation as comedians,
etc.
The suit atrnliiai b. Ward.
The telegraph has already furnished
some particulars in regard to a suit
bronght against Zeb. Ward to recover
$20,000 damages by a negro woman named
Henrietta Wood, living in Cincinnati. In
the Cincinnati C'numrrrinl of Sunday we
find the fullowing with reference to the
case:
A suit by Henrietta Wood, a colored
woman residing in this city, against Zeb.
Ward, a resident of Kentucky, to recover
$20,000 damages, originally bronght in the
Superior Conrt, has leen transferred to
the United alaies Uonrl, wfcere tne peti
tion was filed yesterday.
The plaintiff says that in the year lbT I,
and for many years provions thereto, she
was a free mulatto woman, rosidiug in
Cincinnati: and that the defendant, Zeb.
Ward, together with Kebeca Boyd, kid
napped and abdnoted br from her plaee
of abode, to be delivered to the defend
ant, Ward, in the State of Kentucky, the
defendant knowing her to be a free woman
and r resident of Cincinnati.
The plainlifl further alleges that Ward
kept ber in bondage soven months, and
then sold her to William Pnllian, a slave
trader, who took her to the Sta'e of Mis-Mi-sippi,
and sold her to one Girard Bran
don for tho snm of $l,0.".n. The said Bran
don forced and compelled her to labor on
his plantations in Mississippi and Texas as
a common field liand for fifteen yoars.
The plaintiff further alleges that by
reason of being held in slavery, as afore
said, she has been deprived of her time
and tho valne of hr labor, worth at least
A.vni pei year, aud also that during that
period, slio was subject to grest hardships,
abuse ami oppression, snd was prevented
from returning to her homo until April,

l ilt 1 1 of the t Tariff upon Trade
The Philadelphia Jftrth American of a
recent date remarks:
Since the first of January the importers
ot sugar, tea, conee, iron, and other arti
cles, upon which the tariff levies a reduced
duly, have been very busy taking goods
out of the bonded werehouse, where they
had been lying for some time awaiting the
change, in anticipation of which the busi
ness at the customhouse had been reduced.
This is the way that all changes in the
tann operate, and, notwithstanding all that
is said about relieving the people by reduc
icg the rates, it may be doubted whether
tho people ever receive much of the bene
lit For months prior to the commence
ment of the year nobody bought these
commodities lieyonil tne point of actual
necessity, in view of the expected fall in
prices. Great quantities were imported.
bnt went into bond and were stored away
to await tho dtte of the new tariff: so that
the Treasury got none of the benefit of the
trade, and, in fact, business was rendered
peculiarly dull and gloomy.
There can be little doubt that very much
of the stagnation and depression attendant
upon the closing months of the year are
to be charged to this account, and mer
chants, who are apt to be misled by the
constant clamor for reductions of the tariff
every year, should reflect upon the great
interruption of commerce produced by
these charges. we could much better
stand a heavy duty on almost any article
than to have trade interrupted in this way
by annual changes dated atiead. which sns
pond business and produce unnatural
stagnation and gloom. Commerce can ac
custom itself to almost any condition of
tilings, ami is able to go on prosperously
if it is not intetfored with. Doubt, uncer
tainly and frequent changes are the ene
mies of business.
But as tho Mock-, of many of IheBe ar
ticles iu thu bands of dealers must be very
low, in consequence of this state of things,
business is now rendered unusually brisk
by the necessity that exists for obtaining
fresh supplies. The most unfortunate fea
ture in the affair is that many sugar refin
eries in various cities either suspended en
tirely or ran on half time during this period
of waiting. If we were to estimate all the
loss of wages and of interest on capital in
vested in business sustained in conse
quence of this stagnation, it would far
more than overbalance any profit on the
present activity of trade. Our only hope
of compensation lies in the belief that the
reduced duties and prices may stimulate a
far larger trade, both iuternal aud exter
nal. The presont impulse affords an indi
cation of this.
Tlic Indian Trade and the Kuppl)
of Col ion.
We fear there is no little cause to antici
pate a most unfavorable combination of
circumstances for the prosperity of cotton
growing in most of those countries which
supplied the void caused by the American
war especially in India; and there is a
danger once more of our maufactures being
reduced to dependence upon one cotton
field. The most unfavorable circumstance
is of course the severity of the competition
which the Southern States are once more
enabled to maintain with all their rivals,
and every succeeding account makes the
prospect of this competition more formid
able. Last year there was an t utituated
crop of 2,750,000 bales, which really
proved to be a crop of 3,250,000. A yield
like this at once placed the United States
ahead of its rivals, and was sufficient to
depress the price of the article, notwith
standing a simultaneous diminution of the
import from India, and the improved de
mand at the beginning of the year such a
fall of price, we need not say, tending to
discourage the cultivation in every district
bat the Southern States. Now, however,
the prospect Is even more discouraging.
The first estimate of the American Agri
cultural Bureau as to this year's crop was
,H million bales, an increase on the actual
crop of last year; bnt "certain unfavor
able contingencies" reckoned on not hav
ing occurred, the Bureau now places the
estimate at 3,800,000 bales. Possibly
there is an error in the calculation; bat
the way in which the estimate of last year
was exceeded makes it reasonable to be
lieve that there is no exaggeration, and
that there is, at any rate, a sufficient
chance of the estimate being under the
mark to make the effect of such a crop on
the markets worth considering. The
meaning of it is that America would be
able to export half-a-million more bales to
Europe than she exported last year; and
as, on the whole, there is yet no failure in
the average supply from the rest of the
world, such an excess would, in any case,
have a great effect on price. Just at this
very time, too, the continental war, by
closing many rrencn factories aud inter
rupting German ones, diminishes the de
mnnd; and although the quantity taken
tor the continent was by comparison small
we need not explain how the last additions
to a surplus supply are disproportionately
operative upon price. It is no wonder
toen that in the Indian trade there should
be complaint of great dulness, and that
the prospect of the ootton cultivation is
not a very bright one. As a matter of fact
we learn from the report of Mr. Forbes,
the Cotton Commissioner in Bombay
presidency, pubrtsbed in the tiumbay
Oazette of Dec. 2, the area of cultivation
has diminished this year in consequence of
the unsatisfactory results of the previous
season a short crop sold at a low price
The extent of the diminution is as foi
lows :
Aores
Under cultivation in 1889-70 3,264, ti03
Under cultivation in 1870-71 .... 2,874,856
Diminution of area 389,74
or about 12 per cent the falling off
being almost exclusively in native cotton.
As there is very little prospect of an im
provement in price very soon rather the
reverse there is too much reason to fear
a further diminution of the Indian cultiva
tion, while the Southern States are gradu
ally re-acquiring their position as almost
the sole source of ootton supply. It re
mains to be seen of couise how a low
price will affect the South under its new
industrial conditions; but we see little
reason to doubt that machinery and scien
tific agiioulture will be as potent with free
labor as the slave system without them, at
least for a time, for there is always the
danger of the negro failing as a laborer in
the second generation of freedom, as he
has failed in our West Indian colonies. In
any event, uniil it is seen experimentally
that the south cannot produce profitably
at the old prices, the new cotton-growing
industries in other parts of the world are
exposed to a danger of an unknown and
formidable magnitude. Jyoiidon lucot,

Nashville Leather and Hide Tfarkct
Hides The receipts of both green and
dry continue liberal and all find quick
sale: prices are firm although not quotably
higher; a few lots of smooth clean flint
have sold for 18c If our country friends
would give a little attention to having the
hides when put up to dry, placed on
straight poles, thereby improving their ap
pearance when dry, they would find it a
paying business to do so, and no cost to
them- We quote green hides 8j9c; dry
flint 1617o; dry salted 15 16c, damaged
4 less; sheepskins each 2090c
Leather The causes noticed in our laa
review continue to operate against this
branch of trade, limiting operations to the
actual wants of consumers. There is no
speculative demand for any kind of stock,
Stocks of all kinds in the hands of dealers
are ample, and prices are close to the cost
of production; the slightest activity in
business will improve prices. We quote

Correspondence.
LotnTrTLLE, Kt., Jan. 2, 1871. Mans
field A. Higbee Gentlemen : Whilst I was
attending the Agricultural Fair at Memphis.
I was suffering very much from rheumatism
in my right ieg, I was stopping with my
friend, Dr. Peters .he kindly tendered me
some Magic Arnica Liniment. On going
to bed I rubbed my leg with the liniment ;
the next morning I felt much better, so
much so that I could attend to my business
all the next day, with very little pain.
The Doctor then insisted that I should take
it along with me, and it was very fortunate
that I did, f jr I got a very severe fall at
the Kimball in Atlanta that braised me ap
very ranch . 1 went to my room and ap
plied the Magic Arnica Liniment, and was
entirely relieved, being the next morning
free from pain and was able to attend the
plowing match. Please send me halt dozen
bottles of the Magic Arnica Liniment by
Express, C. O. D. I consider it the best
liniment I over saw. Yours trnly,
T. E. C. Bklx,
of Brinly, Miles 4 Hardy,
