We respectfully inform the travel

connection with all the Rail Roads
terminating at Memphis, regular
line of OEaEmItuses, for conveying
passengers and baggage to and from
the Depots, Hotels, and any other
part of the city. Our Omnibuscs will
be found at the doors of the different
Hotels in sufficient time for every train
of cars starting from this point.
AS the United States Mails are car
ried on this line, passengers will find it
the most safe to patronize us, as the
cars never leave until the Mails are
delivered by us.
BY strict attention and promptness
to the travellers wants, we hope to
secure a share of the public patronage.

MUNICIPALITIES.
Miss s. A. STUART, would inform
the citizens of the town of
Z a MOL a,
and its vicinity, that she proposes open
ing a School for Young Ladies, under
the particular patronage Of The
M1SONIC FRATERNITY
in the lower room of the new Masonic
Lodge, on the first Monday in Sep
tember, 1856.
Having taught for ten years in Vir-
ginia, as well as being engaged as Pre-
ceptress of the Senior Literary De-
partment of the Memphis Female
College, during a scholastic session; -
her past experience enables her to
promise confidently to give every sat
isfaction to the parents or Guardians,
who may intrust pupils to her charge.
Her aim has ever been to give
Thoroughly practical education-nOt
however, at the expense of such ac-
compliShments, as are usually taught
in Young Ladies' Seminaries,-but
rather combining with them; and to
instruct her scholars SO that in time,
they may themselves become teachers.
The school discipline has hitherto been
well preserved throughout, by rules,
suited to the government of the Insti
tuition; uniting with such discipline,
as parents exercise in well ordered
home circles.
The cousse and mode of Instruction.
will be made known by application to
Miss Stuart: and every other informa-
ton relative to the school, will at all
times be readily given.
Board may be obtained in the village
at the usual rates Pupils charged
from their entrance, until the close of
the session; and I'D deduction, save in
cases Of prOtracted sickness.

RETRIBUTIvE lUsTICE-The Philadelphia
North American says: General Cass, the
original proprietor and protector of the doc
trine of squatter sovereignty, or non-inter-
vention, has at last been beaten and shelved
in his own State. The Presidential canvass
of 1913 settled his national hopes, and the
victory of the Republicans now prevents his
return to the Senate. There are many per-
sons who will regret this, for Gen. Cass has
long been regarded with the highest respect
and esteem as one of our leading statesmen.
But the country will really lose nothing by
his retirement. lie has possessed the power
to do much, but has shrunk timidly from
the responsibility of a leader, f lowing will
lingly in the wake of others. In 1850 be
followed Foote, and in 1854 he helped Doug
las to repeal the Missouri Compromise
Toucey is done for in Connecticut, Cass in
Michigan, Dickinson in New York, Pierce
in New Hampshire, Douglas in Illinois, and
few years more will seal the fate of that
whole tribe of misguided Northern States

ANOTHER BASE MURDER.-A Free State
settler residing on the Ottawa Creek on Sat
urday last, while travelling on the highway
towards Westport, Mo-, for provisions, was
beset near Rogers's residence, at the head of
Bull Creek, was robbed, then shot and left
for dead.
The ball entered the back, at the side of
the spinal column, and passed through the
body a little below the heart. He was found
a few hours after by a party of teamsters,
and was taken to Westport. The assassins
are said to be a party Of Georgians who are
encanped IN the vicinity, and who are at
tempting to carry out their threats of eXter-
mnat:on against the Free State settlers.
SAD AFFAIR.-Just as we go to press, we
receive letter from A. Clayton, Jr.. stating
that Mr. j w. II. Golen, who lett the hospi-
tai, in this city, few days ago, for the
East, became alarmed for his safety, IN con-
sequence of the threats of the Border Ruff
fans on board the steamer Omaha, and while
delirous ran off the boat, and is supposed to
be lost in the river.
INFAMous.-The desperadoes in the re-
region of Ottawa Greek, who are committing
acts Of violence on Free State men, are pass
ing themselves off for Free State settlers.
Dr. Wcstfal has been personified by these
villains, and it is reported that an indictment
has been preferred against him, for crimes
committed by southern mercenaries, Ill his

Erernont,s Popularity.

In speaking of this subject, the New York
Herald says: SIN every direction the FIRE.
mont papers are running up his name for
1860. He has beaten jackson in his first
race-he has beaten Harrison; and why
should he not beat them both in the second!
He has almost swept the North in spite oil
Fillmore, and in go he may sweep the south
in spite of the Nullifers. The united oppo-
sition vote against Buchanan is really astoun-
ding. No President was ever elected by such
a popular minority against such opposition
maiorities in the States which have secured
his success. In the South Mr. Fillmore was
generally voted for as basis for keeping the
nucleus of an opposition party together. lie
did not poll the full opposition vote. Much
of it went to Buchanan by default, and much
of it stayed at home. We have Democrat
ic President, therefore, and Democratic
Congress, elected through the division OF the
opposition forces of the North, and from the
weakness, not of the opposition party, but
of the opposition candidates in the South
The Democratic party has been reduced to
minority party. Can Mr.. Buchanan make il
a majority party? Can he recover anything
of what they have lost in the North, with
out losing the South? Can he retain Penn
sylvania without losing Georgia Can he
keep the party as it is, North and South til
July? Will the spois hold out? We shall
know by the 4th of March,"
