MOEPRESSBORO', feb. 8, lSCS.,
Monday, being Couaty Court Aay, a large
attendance' of the sovereign peofil: waa ib
the bprongh and a scene of much animaUn
tvas presented' to tlie eve, thougk the want,
of the liandsoaie equipage which charac
terized the olden and the golden time aw.
sadly missed in the moriag panorama
to-day. Instead, our well-to-do citiaem who
formerly sported gay baggies and baroueheg
now ride in upon one or the other of ear
niee turnpike roads centering here, or horse
back or mulehack, and those aniraak not
the most elegaatr sprightly of their racej
indeed, a good saddle horse is a rarity no-'
a-davs iu this section. If the rumble Of
wheels should arrest your attention, lie sure
you will see a vehicle that has had batter
days, whose curtains now flap i the breeM.
and will not stay fastened, while it gilding
and bright paint, hare long. since given way,
to the dingy hues of old age. The horses
which draw it will at a glance be convicted
as of "low degree" and thoroughly plebeian
in appearance and accomplishments,
t But "there's life in the old laml yet," a
anyone will admit who fball witness tlw
resolute and patent energy with which our
people meet and struggle to overcome the
difficulties of 'the. situation. The con
vulsions "of four -years which have
leveled houses, forests and fences
with the ground in all this re
gion have aho changed its social aspects
in a variety of wayg, so that while many of
the old landmarks remain, we have raad&J
great changes in many things. "ISbvus
ordo rcrum," which meaas that old things
have passed away, excepting old barouches,
buggies and horses, and bid clothes, as hint
ed at above. Among these great changes is
that involving the relations of the whites
and blacks. The former finds himself crip
pled in his resources by four years of ac
tual Or comparative loss; then, he must
adapt himself, despite the habits and train
ing pf a life-time, to an industrial system,
comparatively new and untried; while tho
black man, now "lord of himself," (I will
not add, in a general sense, "that heritage of
woe," though it has proven po in many in
stances,) has emerged from a bondage of a
hundred years, and moves into a new world,
all the requirements of which he does not
understand, though an apt scholar in large
ly more cases than might reasonably have
boon presumed. Under all these disadvan
tages, I am happy to say that the relations
between whites and blacks in this county
are kindly, and that the latter exhibit a de
cided and marked improvement since last
year. They have disappeared almost al
together from the towns, many having made
contracts with farmery for cropping upon
the shares with them, and others havine;
i f i . t i r . rni . i
nireu meniseivea lor wages. AJicir nouses
now dot the surface of the large plantations.
and I am told that tlie spinning' wheel
and the loom may be heard in some of them,
and that almost all ol these people exhibit a
greater readiness tolabor, and a more thrifty
turn of mind than heretofore.
The cotton crop has become the all en-
crossinc; crop of Kutlierionl. .Most of the
last year's crop has gone forward to market,
but some still remains in the hands of far
mers. Every day may bo seen passing
"Tho corded bags of inowy linC
which are seeking the great marts of the
world s commerce. Ilie opinion is expressed
that a cood deal of cotton still remains in
the hands of the farmers in this county who
are waiting a rise in prices and arc holding
up for 50 and CO and even 75 cent, which
I fear they will not realize. Farmers are
going bravely to work, in preparation for
the crop of Jaoo. .Many have commenced
breaking up their fields, others are rebuild
ing and repairing fences, and the work of
ti i ,.. .. i - . I.
- reuaoiiauon goes sureiy ana spccuiiy lor
ward. AVhat was the amount of the cotton crop
ofEutherford last year? The opinion ha?
been expressed by two intelligent gentle
men, themselves planters, one of
whom I hear has taken some pains
to obtain accurate information upon the sub
ject, that it amounted to twelve thousand
bales. Uthcrs thinlcit was not more tiian
two-thirds of that amount, or eight thousand
bales, in winch opinion 1 am inclined upon
rellecuon to coincide, ilad there been a
full crop the first named figures would have
bceu reached, but it fell short one-third, or,
some say, one half; hence I think 12,000
bales an over-estimate. In the palmy days
of cotton planting Eutlierfonl produced
alwut 15,000 bales, and these figures will be
exceeded this year should a favorable season
be granted us.
Occasionally may lie seen upon our streets
tho erect and sturdy form of Hon. Mer
edith P. Gentry, now an honored citixen of
our county, whose manly bearing and Jra-nk
and vivacious disposition still commend him
to his host of friends as wheri, in times gone
by, he stirred the hearts of the people from
tho hustings, and shook the councils of tlie
nation by his surprising and powerful elo
quence. Col. Gentry is in fine health and is
engaged with all the energy of lib vigorous
nature in "reconstructing" his plantation
near this place upon the new industrial sys
tem. May his future be as pleasant as his
past has been honorable, nnd gratifying, (we
may well wippose,) to a nature full of noble
instincts.
A few sales of lands at public vendue
took place on last Monday; among them, the
homestead .of the late Mrs. Sarah McCul
loch. The tract contained 000 acres within
2 miles of the town and the price at which
it was sold was $40 per acre. A few years
since it would have commanded $00 per
acre, bnt then there were buildings, fences
and forest timber upon it, 'which were all
swept away during the progress of the war.
There arc very few transactions in real
estate in this vicinity at the present time.
Murfreesboro has now a Eecordcr's Court
and a regularly organized police force, of
which Mr. Eobt. w. January is chief. The
Recorder U our excellent fellow citizen Mr.
David D. VTendel.
The contract for building a new Jail was
awarded a few days since to Mr. Alex.
Dnimwright at $14 per thousand brick. It
is supposed a new freight house will be built
thifl year by the Nashville and Chattanooga.
Eailroad Company. It is much needed.

Aa waiter (colored) forcibly draad a lady

to save .her from burning to death, and the

NO MORE WAR.
From tho Chicago Times.
The junior abolitibn newspaper of this
city is very much alarmed "at the growing
signs, of discontent which the country ex
hibits over that, treasonable action of the
rump congress. It has cause for fear. It
may not be that the people) will" resort to
arms to redress their grievances, but their
indignation is likely to take a shape at the
ballot-box that will as effectually quash rad
icalism as if it were put to, the sword.
Arguing simply from anology, why should
not the people of both the north and the
south rise, and, with arms in their hand,
march upon Washington, and dissolve the
Parliament that now substitutes treason for
legislation ? jA Cromwell once did tlie same
tlung for less cause, and posterity not only
holds Cromwell guiltless, but makes him
both a hero and a patriot.
This nation fought four years to hinder dis
union in the South. Is disunion in the
South any more infamous and any more
worthy of retribution than iH Washington ?
Why should this people permit a fcw radi
cals to do at Washington what they pre
vented the South from doing at a cost of naif
a million lives and an cxpenditurem money
of billions? We would not tolerate
when.it came, from South Carolina; is it
more tolerable when coming from Pennsyl-
nia and Massachusetts 7
We do not want war. Tlie old secession
movement, led by Jeff Davis., could have
been put down by simply .referring the whole
matter to the unbiased action of the people.
The new secession, inaugurated by Stevens,
can be put down in the 'same way. War is
as much justifiable nowas it-was then ; but
it is better to do now, what nkhhu nave been
dono then leave the question to tho sov
ereign people.
Posterity will hare a nice nucstion to de
cide; whether the greater traitor of the pres
ent day is Jell. Uavis or Anad. istcvens., JUie
l.H'.. 1,.a Mn-t, ..1,1 41.A r,nr. T.A
disgrace of failure. The only reason that
wUl prevent "posterity from gibbetting Stev
ens is tliat men do not liang swccwwful rebels.
if Jell. Uavia is ever hung, it will not be be
cause he seceded, but because he failed in
his entertirisc.
We assure our trembling cotemporary
that although there is reason tor war, there
will be none. Tho people will not allow
themselves to be precipitated into another
contest They will take up this matter at
the polls. If they do not dissolve a treason
able congress, and liang its leaders, higher
than Hainan, it will not be because they
ought not to do these things, but for the rea
son that tho ballot oners an equally sure,
although a lcssswilt, remedy.
DESTITUTION' IN ATEANTA.
From the Christian Iadex.1
Having heard mncli of the wretched con
dition of the poor in this city and its vicinity,
we set out 'on Sunday afternoon to see with
our own eyes whether these things were so.
Wc found that the-halfbfld not been told.
Multitudes, comprising the ajred and the
sick, and many women and children, have
no protection except tents, many of which
are worn out, flimsy, and almost worthless.
The canvass being rotten and full tC holes,
and the tent having no floor bat tlie wet
ground, the inhabitant are almost as much
exposed as they would be with nothing
above thent but the sky. Jfany of them are
destitute of fuel and have no money to buy.
Families of six and seven, have not blanket
enough to keep one person warm ia- a good
room with a fire in it. Some have nothing
to eat except cold victuals which Jhey beg,
aad these are not always In good supply.
Pew or none of them have clething suffi
cient for, the season. We found one woman
a widow, who, with six children, had no
shelter but a scanty tent cloth, through
which the wind and rain might penetrate as
through a scire. Her health had failed
under her hardships; her, oldest boy
aged, perhaps, 15, also broken down by
priration.and exposure, was unable to work.
The other children were yemg and were all
small and ill-grown apnamitly dwarfed for
lack of nourishment, A one of them, were
well. Two of thent were sick, and one poor
emaciated little girl, five years old, looked as
if she would ceaee to hunger, and find her
rest. They had ne money, so food, abnout
no clothing, and no friends. Self-support
was out of the question the woman could
not labor; Ifer husband wm killed at
Chlckamaua. When Oct). Sherman cap
tured Atlanta, 3te sent this wohmr' and her
fawily, with others, te Lotskville, Ky. She
wag afterwards sent back to Atlanta, and
here she is helpless and ready to perish.
We liave mentioned thk case so particu
larly only to Illustrate othem. How many
there are in similar condition, or more or
less forlorn, we do not know. Hut the out
skirts of the city are, whitened with tents.
There mut be some hundred of them.
All these are the victims ef war. All of
seen better ikvs. Some of them
have always been accustomed, until recently,
to all the Ordinary comforts of life.
Wo hare no commeiU te moke ne ex
hortation to offer. The appeal the appeal'
te .the heart and consciences of the poo file,
the appeal such as no man could nuke, an
appeal such as no angel eotihl make, Is made
by the facts!

L. C. Baker, ceases to be a brigadier general
with thk day. By tlie term of m eeier
from the- War Department" hk cowmiiision
was cancelled on the loth, instsat aad he k
mastered out of "service." It showM be
borno in mind, however, that the military
officers here disclaim Baker's right te eef
nition as of the military service proper, mm
hu, did not receive hk title ae heijptJter
geicral by reason of mcritorione ceoifact in
tlip field, nor on account or service in the
army of the United States; His "pttwootion"
toa brigadierslilp was the work of Mr Stan
ton, upon importunities of Baker, who
asked the distinction as a sort ef henfthy
coVeringto hide hk disreputable OifvwU
wHl ct'.nnnencc, for he caa no longer, at snV
own bidding, bring to hk aid the strong arm
of the Government to protect him from the
vengeance of Outraged ckisees who haver
been snfferers in person and property trim
thb unconstitutional and utterly iikgnl aeta
of this man".
Baker had become so impudent, and. fcH
so entirely seenro from tlie reach cf ail ,
save tho Secretary of War, that he aetlly
attempts to 'play the detective afAm IhsP
President and nk household some weeks afo.
There is scarcely: a doubt, however, that
this last specimen of indecency and Wonder
utter i aiiuro ot ins espionage upon the exe
cutive mansion, for it was Bomchow dkeov
ered by Mr. Johnson, who sent a mwnsngtr
to bring Baker immediately into hkpswsnos.
The detective dropped, every other catMiikr- -atlon,
and repaired with all haste to the
Whito nousc, totally at fault as to the wtr
pofio of this summons from the' PnniWt.
Hk name being announced the I'?jilint
directed that he bo at once admitted, &et
wiihstanding the presence of several gesttt-.
min then engaged with Mr. Johnson. The
latter unceremoniously charged Baker 'with'3
hi? villainous espionage, and informed hint
that if he again heard of hk presence in, of
prowling about tho Whito House,, or if he
permitted any ef hk creatures to" snwfcr
around the premises, tho "Great Detective" -should
himself lodge in some one of the
dingy cells in the Old Capitol, where so many
liatlbcen incarcerated upon the simple order
of Baker himself, Jwjthout warrant, or the-"
semblance ef law or justice.
Tho "Great Detective" was amand ai

President's command, "Go Bir." Hakar haat-

"Hold ono moment,- sir. I deafee that ye
now go to tlie Secretary of W&r, and tfH
him every word I have raid to yes,, acil
(shaking hk finger at hira)don't let m ever

The "Great Detective" left Inetanter, and
has obeyed the last injunction of tlie presi
dent most religiously.
