Grant’s Fortht-imlng Inaugural.
A Washington lispatoh says: “Tlio
President hns not yet commenced tlio
preparation for Ills inaugural address,
and very few speculations have been
mado concerning it. It is believed
that its tone towards tlio South will
be very friendly, and intimations are

Another Insurgent Expedition.
A Herald dispatch, from Key West,
says intelligence hns reached there of
a successful landing of another insur

The Coining Inauguration.
It is said that preparations for the

aro that it will be tlio grandest display
ever witnessed in Washington. There

Spain nml Cuba.
A reporter of the New York Be raid
has had an interview with leading Cu
ban patriots in that city on tho effect
of the abdication of tho throno of
Spain by Amadeus, and the construc
tion of a republic, upon affairs in Cu
ba, and the permanency of a republic
in Spain. They all agree that it will
haston tho liberation of Cubn, and com
plete tho abolition of slavery in that
island. They moreover believa that a
republic in Spain would bo permanent
witli such men as Cnstelar, Bcnot,
Diaz, Qnintero and Sauromn, all abo
litionists, at its head; but they admit
there are a number of factions hard to
reconcile to any form of government
in Spain.
A Georgia Editor In Luck.
We notice that Col. W. L. Scruggs,
the man who lias vainly tried, through
the columns of the defunct Atlanta lira
and other Georgin papers, to make the
people of the State believe Grant is
a second Washington, has been provid
ed for. He is now “Minister” Sornggs
—Minister to the republic of the Uni
ted States of Columbia. Bully for
Scruggs 1 Ho hns labored long and
faithfully for a crumb from the royal
table, nml wo congratulate him upon
his suoaess. Though erstwhile a Rad
ical “pon-driver,” he is nevertheless a
capital fellow, and we are rejoiced to
hear of his good luck in securing
“posisk” worth $1,500 pet annum.
An Inebriate Asylum.

Phillips, of tills city, who paid her
seventeen cents for making four pairs

five cents for nmjitqa six shirts. Be-
enusu she did not finish thu trousers ns

quantities of work at such n preposter

Surely our gcncrour Southern people
are guiltless of snob inhumanity as is
portrayed In tho nbove. Think of our
warm-hearted women giving only fifty
cents for tho making of twclvo pairs

instances of disinterested kindness to

Knoxville.
In a recent visit to Kndxvlllo we
wero pleased to find many, indications
of thrift and development. It is a
very picturesque and healthful moun
tain city, witli magnificent views and
attractive surroundings. Many North
ern people are settling there, bringing
capital and enterprise, as evidenced
in the many new and elegant residen
ces bomg crcctod in the beautiful emi
nences which overlook tho river.
Thoro are a number of libornl-lieart-
ed and flno business men in Knoxville,
who evinoo thuir tact and good judg
ment in business matters by advertis
ing in The Citizen ; others, wo doubt
not, will do likowiso when they note
tlio good results of this policy, in the
business success of their neighbors.
We maku special mention of these
gentlemen in another.column, and at
another time may speak moro fully of
tho manufacturing and commercial
prospects of that city.

No Small-Pox In Baltimore.
Bai.timoue, Md„ Feb, 17, 1873.
Editor Citizen.-—I Imvo seen, in
some of tlio .Southern papers, exagger
ated statements relative to prevalence
of small-pox in this city, which 1 wish
to correot.'
Enrly In the winter small-pox threat
ened, to become epidemic, but owing
to the vigllanceof the city authorities,
it was soon bhcckcd, and there is good
reason to believe it will soon bo en
tirely “stamped out.” At no time was
it anything like as bad as represented.
There has not been a single case at
any ono of the hotels, and thorcis not,
at tills time, a ease within a mile of
the business portion of the city.
The sections visited by it hnvo been
those where cleanliness of person and
premises was not properly regarded
by tlio inhabitants ns essential to
health.
No city in tho Union is generally
more healthy than Baltimore, and
none in .which epidemics make so short
a stay. It hns no sewers like Boston
New York and Philadelphia, to emit
foul air into its thorough fares, and its
streets are completely washed out by
every rain storm.

Notice lo Cotton Planters.
I have in my store,'at Dalton, about
fifty bushels of extra ProliHo Cotton
Seed, selected with groat care by my

it will pay any. man, who expects to
raise cotton, to procure some of them.
Tho demand being so great for them
