PREFACE.
E herewith present to the public the first volume of the TUSCALOOSA CITY DIRECTORY, feeling confident that every business man and citizen will appreciate a ready reference book of this character.
The book contains about 2200 addresses. This multiplied by 3, the usual directory multiple, will give Tuscaloosa and environments a population of 6600.
We estimate that 200 of the addresses were obtained in Northport, making an estimated population of 600 for North- port and 6000 for Tuscaloosa.
The addresses of residents are shown by numbers in the territory to be served by free mail delivery; and those living east of 18th avenue and north of 15th street are designated by the letter E, and those living south of 15th street are desig- nated by the letter S, and those west of 32d avenue and north of 15th street (Newtown) are designated by the letter W.
To the city officials, and the business public in general, we desire to extend our thanks for their co-operation and courteous treatment of canvassers during the progress of the work.
Very respectfully,
THE PUBLISHER.

Tuscaloosa stands on an elevated plateau 202 feet above the sea level, and entirely Tuscaloosa above the reach of malarial visitations. The Black Warrior river flows by her doors, and is navigable from Mobile to the coal fields, above. Just here is the lower margin of the mineral regions of Alabama, and for more than 100 miles to the north stretch fields of coal and iron.
In the olden times Tuscaloosa was the home of many of the wealthi_ est families in the state-the majority of whom drew their revenues from cane-brake and Warrior river plantations. The grand old residences, the charming flower yards, and the stately oak trees and shady streets then made Tuscaloosa, as they do now, "the most beautiful city" of the South. She now has a population of 6600, and with Northport, Univer- sity and Asylum about 10,000; but her natural advantages are without limit and her business opportunities metropolitan. Her society is hos- pitable, cultured and refined, her citizens moral and orderly, and her ed- ucational facilities exceptionally excellent. The State University, with free tuition, and two large female colleges are situated here, and we also have a public school, and a high school for boys, all of which are under careful and competent management. We have an electric light plant, a large ice factory, a belt railroad and dummy line, a complete water works system, a cotton compress, a cotton seed oil mill, steam laundry and bot- tling works, three cotton mills, three planing mills, a hosiery mill, tele- phone, two telegraph offices, four banks, two modern public school build- ings, one for white and one for colored students, both the property of the city; a handsome city building, with all necessary room for conducting the city's work; an excellent sewer system with two main outlets to the river, two large hotels in the center of business, three and four stories high; two daily newspapers, morning and evening, and several weekly and monthly publications. There are churches of five denominations for the white population, viz: Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal, Presbyterian and Catholic; for the colored, three denominations, Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian; one social club, a V.M.C.A., several religious societies, military company, fire department, a first class iron drawbridge across the river, three splendid government locks and dams, a wool carding mill, a grist mill, a tannery, a foundry, a grain elevator, an express con- pany, court house, fertilizer mannfactory, five cotton warehouses, and all the up-to-date improvements and conveniences of a progressive city. All of the professions and regular lines of business found in much larger cities are found in Tuscaloosa.
The government expends a half million dollars here annually in building locks aud dams, and otherwise improving the navigation of the Warrior river. A $3,000,000 barge line has been incorporated for the purpose of carrying coal to the gulf. Two 200-ton furnaces and large pipe works are being built in the suburbs, also coke ovens and by-product plant.
Tuscaloosa is distinctly a town with a future .- (Adapted from Times.)
