Ten CENTS YARp.-The Memphis
Avalanche, giving an account of the fail
ure of the Citizens Bank in that city, men,
tions the following as among the incidents
Of the day:
"When the crowd gathered around COM
posed mostly of mechanics and working
men, with here and there woman, and
at intervals some poor market-woman, we
observed a little fellow with wonderfully
exaggerated nose, who had package OF
the Bowleg's notes in bis handsome one
asked how much be had; he said "these
bills, amounting to three hundred dollars,
are the profits on my labor for six months
past-look at my hard hands and see how
/ have toiled; have wife and children,
for whom must buy bread, and for whom
I must provide shelter and home; but,
gentlemen, it is all gone; they may be
Rcusless wanderers and homeless beggars,
if should knuckle to this misfortune. 1t
is all gone" The little gentleman with
the Slankenbergius nose, which we read
about in Tristan Shandy, at this point in
his speech bumped himself, and began
to lay his wildcat bills in row down the
centure Of the street. When they were
thus distributed, be turned to the crowd,
saying, "Gentlemen and ladies, will sell
this - internal stuff at ten cents yard,
tape measure" The crowd roared, and
good humor was thus substituted for the
angry feelings for some time manifested,
and which, by any accident, might have
resulted in the demolition of the bank
building"

ARREST OF A SoMNANBULIsr.-Betw
two and three o'clock Monday morning =
female figure, robed in wihte made its
appearance at Fourth and Pine streets,
and commenced walk it the neighborhood
of Brsinerd's church. The figure strobe,
round the graveyard in true phantom style
and paid no heed whatever to the queries
Of those who, with chattering teeth, ven
tmed to question it. The figure continued
to stalk backward and forward for some
time under the shadow of the graveyard
wall, and it was not long before the rumor
that ghost was to be seen gathered
quite crowd ofgazers even at that un-
seasonable hour. Several policeman were
among the lockers on, but they did not
consider it their duty to medic with un-
substantial visions, and her ghostship was
suffered to continue her weary walk undis-
turbed for some time. Finally, an officer
who was either skeptical concerning spirits
IS o class, or who considered awrit down
in his duty" to intercept all irregular indi-
vduals, whether real or spiritual, seized the
ghost by the arm, and became satisfied
that she was flesh and blood. Encourag-
cd by this discovery, he marched her to the
Eighth Ward Station-bouse, where it was
foaad that the supposed spectre was real
substantial woman, who had got out Of
her bed, at house in Hurst ss-eeet, in
somnambulstic fit and scared portion of
the community from their propriety by
parading around a graveyard in her night
clothes. Even after reaching the station
house it was some time before the somnam-
bulist could be aroused. We think that
anybody who can sleep SO soundly as this
supposed ghost must have slept is to be
enYied these hot nights.-Phi. Bulletin.

A very sad affair transpired at Princeton
near our city, on Thursday last. A Mr..
Daniel Elliot, who lives in Princeton,
butchering beeves and selling them in the
neighborhood, hung himself IN his slaughter
honse. He was in an exceedingly good
humor during the day and evening, and
naturally Of a playful disposition gave vent
to it BY many playful things. He had
bought some cattle, had extended his
rbusness was doing well, and felt lively and
encouraged. He so expressed himself to
his wife and friends. Going from the
house to his stable he fed his horse, and
taking bis little girl and a neighbor's little
boy, some thirteen years old, he went on
shout twenty Eve yards from his house to
the slaughter house. Here was machine
for raising dead cattl.-a rope with large
hook in it run orer q large reel and attached
to a'windlass witha ratchet. Adjusting the
rope in moose around his neck, be play
fully bid the little girl to go tell her moth
er somebody was hanging cut there who
looked like Dan Elliott" Then showing
the boy exactly how many notches, he bid
him, still laughing, to draw him up. The
boy did so, and drew him off his feet
Once up he could not, because Of the ratch-
ct, get him down, and when ia answer to
the little girls anxiety Mrs. E, came out,
her husband hung dead, his feet touching
the floor, and the hook pressing hard a
gainst his jugular. From all the circum-
stances, it is not doubted that the act was
done accidentally in burst Of playfulness.
