Circus, MENAGERIE, &c.ABy reference 20
the fancy advertisement in another column, it
will be seen that the mammoth combination
Of anu. ements, curiosities, &C., known as
Mables Menagerie, Den Stones Circus and
Tylers Indian Exhibition, will be here to-day,
and be open to visitors afternoon and evening.
The procession will enter townin the morning.
This exhibition certainly offers variety enough
to please all tastes. Those who have had
enough of circuses, or whose tastes coyet DIFF
fcrent class of entertainments, can perhaps be
well entertained by the Menagerie Of wild
beasts, and the dances, &C., of the band of In
'dians. We think there will be no difficulty
in getting the worth of your money at the ex-
addition Take the children there by all
sneans, and this afternoon is the best time for
them.

FIRE AND DEATH.-On last night, april
11th) two negro cabins belonging to Col. Jack
Pritchett, in this county, took fire and burned
down during the absence of negro woman
from one of the tenements. Two negro child
ren--the one about twenty months DID, and
the other six months--were consumed in the
flames before the fire was discovered or assis
lance could be rendered. A negro woman
with her child barely escaped death, being
aroused from her sleep by the falling of the
roof ofone of the cabins Henderson Pct.

To THE LADIEs.-We would call the atten-
tion of our lady friends to the advertisement
of French tea sets, toilet sets, chinaware,
sey & Nelson. These goods were brought
here by Mr.. Samuel G. Cooke, and mostly of
his own importation. Mr.. c. halls from Lou
isville, and had similar sale here about two
months since. We believe him to be a rela-
BILE merchant and clever fellow. The sale
will take place this afternoon at 2115 o'clock
and be continued. G6and help get up crowd.

before we could not go Let the theorizers
forget their theories and practise what is
practicable. Every dollar expended in this
cause by our people, is AS bread cast upon the
waters" Those of you who so see the points
of the case should at once put the ball in mo-
ton. If you cannot act with much concert at
first, go to work individually. Present sub
scription list to every man you meet who owns
a single slave Let others do likewise. A long
step will be thus taken towards performing our
part in Kansas.
COL j. ID. Wilson of our State arrived this
morning, and tells me that the people in his
region are becoming alive to the issue. He
has pledged himself to arm and transport FIVE
determined young fellows to Kansas at his own
expense. The example is worthy of imitation,
and the sentiment which produced it patriotic.
The route TO Kansas is via Nashville, from
which point it is but six days journey to the
promised land.

lively sympathy, with you in " Border Ruffian-
ISM"
