Our Iron District.
A Mineral Map t<> l>e Published by the
Chattanooga Centennial Commisiion.
Office Centennial Commission )
Chattanooga Mineral Dtst., ;
July Bth, 1876. j
The Committee to whom have
been entrusted the getting up of the
Mineral Map of this Iron District,
which is now completed according
to the original plan, on exhibition
at Philadelphia, have experienced so
much difficulty in obtaining the
necessary funds to finish the Mao
that they have concluded to adopt a
a different plan to obtain the means
to pay for gettiog 5,000 copies litho
graphed for distribution through the
country, and qt the Centennial. They
propose to offer the Map, lithograph
ed like sample, with the addition
of all the minerals represented by
appropriate colors, as fuily shown
upon the original, to subscribers
through the district, and to those
who may fcellhteresrcu m iiavi., 5 it
published, for the sum of fifty cents
per copy; and whenever a sufficient
amount is subscribed and paid to
furnish the funds to pay for the lith
ography, the Committee wil have the
work doneand the maps distributed to
subscribers. Many have already in
timated their willingness to take a
considerable number for their own
use and distributon among their
friends, and have recommended this
course to the committee. If the sub
scriptions are promptly made there
will be no difficulty in getting the
map ready for distribution at the
Centennial, It is understood that
the samples now sent out are only
the litghograph; the maps when
furnished to subscribers will have
upon them the location of nil the
minerals in the district, in appropri
ate colors, after the manner of the
original map.
It is very desirable to move in this
matter at once, and those who feel
interested should lose no time in
sending in their subscriptions; and
we feel that there is scarcely any one
within the entire district but what
the map would be invaluable to them
as a reference, being as it is the only
correct and reliable map ever gotten
up of the section of county covered
by it.
All communications should be ad
dressed to Mr, S. B. Dowe, Secretary
and all remittances made to Mr. W.
D, Van Dyke, Treasurer, who will
upon receipt of subteriptions, issue to
subscribers a receipt, setting forth
the object for which the subscription
is made, and also the fact that should
there bean insufficient amount sub- ,
scribed, that the money will be re
turned in full to every subscriber.

Litigation.
A. Feasible I’lan Proposed to make it Less
Expensive.
To ihe Editor of the Express':
I desire to o'er a few suggestions
through the cOiUins of your valuable
paper to the people of Bartow coun
ty in regard to one evil, which I
think can be reraidied. The evil ol
which I speak, is the accumulation
of business in our Superior court, and
the consequent length of its terms,
accompanied by the greatest incon
venience and expense to parties, jur
ors, and witnesses. To parties liti
gant, the cost of attending court, in
cluding loss of time, hotel hills, and
lawyers’ fees, is under the present
state of affairs, simply enormous.
In many instances it is better and
cheaper to release a debtor and give
him the debt he owes than to under
dertake to enforce it in the Superior
court, especially if the case is ligita
ted. For when a case is ligitated, it
may not bo tried for several terms on
account of the absence ot witnesses
or the sickness of parties or their
counsel. Hence it is, that often times
litigants and witnesses must attend
court for many terms, and for weeks
during each term, without getting a
trial. A fair estimate of the value
of the time lost in attending these
long sittings of the court, and of the
money paid out for board and for
lawyer’s fees will convince any reas
onable mind that an evil exists which
ought to lie remedied.
L T nder the present system only the
licit are able to litigate, while the
poor are virtually deprived of the
privilege of [[appealing to the courts
for redress, because they are too poor
to undergo the expense of a protracted
lawsuit in the Superior court. And
just here I will take occasion to etty I
do not attribute the blame to our able
judge nor to any of the officers ot
court, hut to the condition of times
in the land and the excessive amount
j of litigation growing out of that con
dition. The evil is apparant. Now
| how can we remedy it, I will ven
ture to offer a plan which I think
J will in a great measure, remove the
I evil.
Let our next legislature give us a
circuit county court with fa juiisdic
tion of civil cases when the amount
claimed does not exceed five hund
red dollars and of ail criminal cases
below a felony where the accused
waives indictment by a grand jury.
I mean by a circuit county court one
which shall be held at stated periods
in each milita district of the county.
Let there be a thoroughly competent
man appointed to the judgeship and
let him hold the court In each milita
district once every quarter of the
year and let him have a jury of five
or seven men on the trial of every
case where an issue of the fact is in
volved.
If my plan is feasible why will it
not remove the evil? A large
I amount of our Superior court litiga
! tion would then he transferred to
I this circuit county court. Parties
! litigant would have the means of
j redress at their very doors in their
I own militia district; and the poor
! eoukl alibi'd to appeal to such a court
because the expense and delay would
be vastly less than in the superior
court.
The people objected to our lasi
county court because the expense o'
attending it in Cartorsvillo was as
great as the expense of attending the
Superior court. No such objection
can he urged against the o;.o pro
posed. Such a court as the one pro
i posed, properly organized and hav
| ing a sound and competent judge at
its head, I am persuaded the people
; would heartily endorse.
! an.® above is n rouge outlineot my
; plan for removing an evil which all
feel to be .burdensome. If my plan
j is objectionable and others can offer
one more feasible and efficacious let
them make it known and the people
will heed. Observer.
River and Harbor Bill.—The
I following expression of opinion,
I the Now YmK nerald , was published
j in season to have an effect on the*
i pending River and Harbor bill:
We trust that the proper desire for
i economy now shown by Congress
I will not interfere with theappropria
i tions for the South. We are in fa
-1 vor of giving the South all the money
! its people need. Let us give money
1 to improve navigation,open harbors,
! build public buildings. Let us do
what we can to stimulate special
southern industries—cotton, tobacco,
rice and sugar. Let us, if it is within
the power of congress, make that rich
and beautiful land to blossom with
new life. In dealing with the south
let us always remember the hard con
ditions of the war—the money we
: took when we freed the slaves, when
we compelled a repudiation of her
; debts, when we seized cotton, when
we ravaged the valley of the Shenan
doah and marched through Georgia.
And while these were all war meas
ures—which we would do again un
der the same necessity—let us re
member what a burden it was to the
conquered and how it crushed them
to the earth. Whenever, then, we
can give the south money in appro
priation bills, in shaping revenue or
! financial legislation, let us do so. We
j should be quite content if for the next
| five years three-fourths of the money
j voted by congress were to go into the
southern states alone. Whatever we
do for economy let us give the south
ali the money she wants.

Many of our Republican contempo
raries are fretting themselves about
Gov. Tilden’s delay in sending his
letter to the committee appointed to
notify him of his nomination. There
is no cause for uneasiness on the sub
ject, however, at ali. The main point
about the letter is already settled.
He accepts, so the Republicans may
as well be packing up and getting
ready for a stai t.
A strict devotion to official duty on
the part of officeholders for the re
mainder of their terms should not be
interrupted by needless anxiety about
the Governor’s letter. He accepts,
and the rest will be all right.— JV. Y.
Sun.
It is reported that John Kelly,
having called on Grant with Air.
Smith Ely, said alter the interview
that “Grant is not such a dull fellow
after all.” If Mr, Kelly went to see
Grant with the idea that he was go
ing to meet a dull fellow, he carried
wiihMiim a wrong idea of the man.
Grant is not dull, in the sense of stu
pidity. He is a long headed man, a
stubborn one, and, aboveaff,cunning.
With those with whom he feels at
ease and in sympathy he can talk as
glibly as the next man. If he was a
dull man be would not be so danger
ous a President.—A r . Y. Sun.
Gen, Jubal Early says, “Governor
Hayes served only once with the
Army of the Potomac, and that was
at South mountain in Cox’s division,
from Western Virginia. Ilis other
service was in the army of West Vir
ginia. His Military career was so
obscure that his name is not even
mentioned in the published reports,
and though now ho Is represented to
have done wonders under Sheridan
in the valley I never heard of him be
fore in that capacity.

mHE political campaign of 187(1, which ln
f. eludes National, state and County elec
tions, and which undoubtedly will be the most
active and hotly contested ol anv since the
memorable canvass of POO, is now fairly
opened. Ihe National Democratic Party will
this year make a tiold, vigorous, and doubtless
successful strugglo for the maintenance and
supremacy ot those principles which are vital
to the prosperity of the public, and essential
to the well-being ofthc people.
In addition to the Krc-identlal election, the
people in Georgia and Florida will elect new
State Governments. In Florida the campaign
promises to be unusually vigorous, and there
is a probability that for the tirst time since the
war. the people of that Radical-ridden State
will elect a Democratic State Government. In
these campaigns the people are deeply inter
ested; and every intelligent citizen, who has
the u ell arc ol hi- country ami his section at
heart, slionld acquaint himself with every de
tail of redemption and ieform that is now going
To this end he should subscribe to and assist
