Gov. Curtis said that was just

“In the interest of loyalty to the

A Narrow Escape From Fire.
On Sunday last, the pulpit of St.
Thaddcus church was filled by Mr
Dowling of Toronto Canada, who
preached a most eloquent sermon on
charity taking a* his text the first
three ve*>es of that great psalm of
love, the IStli chapter of the first
Epistle to the Corinthians. He dwelt
im*Bt earnestly upon the necessary
foundation in a Christian’s character
of that charity, or love that prompts
him to sacrifice himself for the good j
of others. That, without such love
all the other Christian graces profit
notiiing. Love is the fulfilling of the
iaw. He applied these remarks
finally to th present season, as one
devoted most particularly by the
Episcopal church to humiliation,
and sell sacrifice. Altogether his
sermon was an impressive one, and
gave his hearers much to think about.
Last Wednesday is known in the
Episcopal. Greek, and Roman ehurh-
esasAsh Wednesday; being the first
day of the season of Lent, and is so
named from the ancient practice of
strewing ashes on the heads of peni
tent members of the congregations on
Between 2 and 3 o’clock on Thurs
day morning last, some of the occu
pants of the York Street School build
ing, which is used as a dwelling as
well as for school purposes, were
awakgnd from their peaceful slum
bers by smoke coming into their roam.
They gave the alarm and aroused the
whole house, when it was discovered
that the building was on fire. The
fire was burning in a small closet un
der a stairway that fed from the din
ing room up to the ell running
hack from the main building. Had
it been allowed five minutes longer
lo burn, the flames would have made
such headway that it would have
been impossible to save the liouse.
Fortunately a barrel of water was
sitting within four feet of the fire, and
it was used to subdue the flames. A
general alarm was sent out and a few
responded in time to help put out the
fire. All the wood-work in the closet
was badly charred, and the fire bad
eaten its way through the stair steps
in two or three places. The origin of
the fire is not definitely known, hut
there are suspicious circumstances
which point verj strongly to the
guilty party. There was no fire-placa
in the room, but a stave stands ut the
opposite end of the dining room from
where the fire broke out, aud at 11
o’clock t hat night there was no fire
in it. Hence the impression prevails
that it was incendiary. If a siiarp
detective was employed to work up
this case, no doubt h*e would bring
that day.- This custom has long
since been abolished in the Episcopal j |J!I. 8 r porf
church, but still remains in vogue in | o P > ‘ •
the Greek, and Roman churches. As]
we have said Ash Wednesday was Death vf Gcu. It. H. Anderson,

Knoxville Tribune.
The Nashville and Charleston
Railway Company has been moxing
quietly but with expedition. The
company was organized to build a
railroad from Nashville to Charleston
The road strikes Southeast from
Nashville across the Cumberland
plateau, thence across the Valley of
East Tennessee, thence totlie waters of
the little Tennessee, thence with said
river for some distance,finallv passing
out of the State at Rabun Gap aud
thence to tide water at Charleston.
We can announce most positively
that the road will be built. The com
pany which is hacking it is one of
the moat powerful ever organized in
tliiseotin try it has' both English
and American capital behind it.
Among its American hackers is Mr.
R. G. Dun. of Dun's commercial
agency. The company does not ask
a dollar of assistance from any source.
No city, no county is asked to assist
it.
Some months since four or five
corps of engineers were put in the
field to survey a route for the road.
The work bus been done quietly but
thoroughly and the survey has been
made from Nashville tc the coast
country. The original survey was
not made by way of Knoxville. The
company has now determined to
come by way of our city. Just what
route will be followed is not yet defi
nitely known, lint it is an absolute
certainty that the road will come to
Knoxville. The original surve.\
crosses the East Tennessee at or near
Sweetwater.
Th* company has done no talking
but has been working. More than
$109,000 has been expended in sur
veys and other preparatory work.
Tlie road, as stated, will follow the
Little Tennessee Riversonie distance.
A corps of engineers will locate this
part of the road in a few days. A
start will be made from a point some
where near Nile’s Ferry, near the
Southern boundary of Blount county,
and about 45 miles from where
1. ca ed. Tl li work will be done
during the next mouth. It will very
soon after be let to contract. This
will carry the road nearly to Rabun

phia, in reference to the proposed
removal of the Libby prison to Chica
go:
“Sir: Ail rode to mv office this |
morning I read a Chicago scheme to
remove Libby prison to that city for
a public show. It fairly horrified me
for a tnoiueul. I lost a father and
two brothers in Virginia and have
been striving for twenty-three years
nearly to bury the war in
oblivion, wiiieh is impossible while a
Republican lives to wave the bloody
shirt. While this would perpetuate
in the North all the animosity of ike
war. what can the people «f; Buckets, Baskets, Dolls, Vases

allow it to stand in a Northern city; a ;

i ng \ ou Ido not even know your
name, but I trust you will respond to
my sincere desire that your people
will not consider any such vile
scheme, no matter under what
specious plea it may tie hidden.”
The writer of this letter says that i
during the war lie was captain of]
Company H. 6th Pennsvlvania i

makes meets with hearty approval
among many of the most conserva
