MEMPHIS NAVY YARD.--It seems from the
appointment of a surgeon to the Memphis
Navy Yard, that the Government is dispos-
ed to pay some respect to the wishes of the
citizens of Memphis, expressed at public
meeting, in relation to the acceptance of the
Yard by the City Council. This appoint
ment was made before the action of the
Council was known at Washington City
The surgeon, we imagine, viii find himself
rather in quandary. We hope. however
that the next Congress will be in time to dc
something, and that they will be disposed
and able to retrieve the error so frivlpusly
committed at the last session.

amount when the valley becomes flooded
The survey Of the valley could now be made
with great accuracy, and could tie work
commence Immediately, the happy result.

Startling Incident,

The Baltimore Sun" gives the following
description Of an alarming incident which
occurred, recently, at the Holiday Street
Theatre, in that city. Ever since the
burning Of the Richmond Theatre, many
years ago, every accident of this sort thrills
an audience with inezpressible terror
''Last evening, during the dance, at the
close Of the Serious Family, the dress of
Miss Ellen Mo-ant took fire AZ shc passed
the footlights, and being Of light gauze, the
alarm from the house was scarcely given be-
fore the flames seemed to envelope her per-
son. She rushed hastily from the stage,
made to extinguish the blaze, and the last
view which the audience had Of her person
it was enwrapped in sheet Of fame
Great excitement prevailed instantly in the
house, and many rushed for the doors. but
the danger was evidently confined to the IN
fortunate young lady. The stage was in
great commotlon, and Miss Fanny Morant
fell by the stage box in fainting condition
Tie curtain was promptly rung down, and
in few minutes. Mr.. Norten came forward
and announced that the accident had not
resulted 50 seriously As it had threatened
at the moment, the flames having been ex-
tinguished as soon a. the young lady passed
from the stage. and her neck and shoulders
only being rather badly scorched. The
sympathy Of the audience, which had been
held in suspense during the few minutes
that had elapsed, found vent in burst Of
applause, and Mr. Norten retired"
