we are surs that the spectators would have
thought that injustice had been done, as the
feeling seemed to set strongly in favor Of the
cadets, but the COMMITTEES thought Otherwise,
and the banner was awarded to the Memphis
| Southern Guards. On the announcement Of
the decision, the Cadets gave three cheers for
the Southern Guards, which compliment was
returned, and it was announced that exercises
would be suspended until half pasttwo O'Clock,
Il then being half past one.

~ We take pleasure in calling TIE atten-
ton Of our numerous readers and visitors from
all parts Of the country to that most excellent
article Of food for stocS, oil meal, which is
nov manufactured here in LANCE quantities BY
the Memphis cotton seed oil company, Fen
ton & Co. proprietors, and is offered at very
low prices, as compared with corn, oats, hay,
etc. That our readers may know in what esti-
nation the cotton oil meal lie held in Europe,
NAV be stated that three years since the
price there was twenty-five dollars per tun,
while forty five dollars is now readily paid for
this invaluable article Of food by the farmers
and stock growers. Now, that doubts no longer
exist in regard 10 the real value Of this food,
say, try it; your stock will very soon learn
10 eat it, when YOU viii never be without it
thereafter.
