SPORTING SONG.

Sk V1044NU SVNOs
The following song about Tom Sayers
which is circulating over England shows to
what pitch the national feeling is aroused
in favour Of the English Champion:
lie bears for brave Old England
The belt OF British fight ...
And proudly will he meet the man
Who dare contest his right;
He'll meet him with friendly hand,
He'll meet him - . brother.
But that which heart aud hand can hold,
lie yields not to another.
CHoRUs-Then good luck to the stranger,
And better luck to Tom
And may the belt Of England
H... Ns'er leave It's native home.
Give welcome to the manly heart
That bravely crossed the sea,
To battle for his country's fame,
Whatevrr land II be.
Which way this fortune falls,
Twill be our pride to show,
An honest lad from any land
VIII find no BritOn foe.
CHosUs-Then here's luck 30.
We want no pistol, ball or bl ade,
But muscle sioew and bone:
hand to hand for friend or foe,
We trust to it alone.
Then honor fall where honor's due,
While honor rcigEs within;
America aud England, too!
And may the best man win.
CHoRus-Then good luck, &c.

Railroad Celebration.

At meeting Of committee nom the City Coun-
ell and the railroad, communication was read
from Geo. Mcleod Esq, Chief Engineer ofthe Lou
isville and Narhville railroad, addressed to W. A
Quaries, ESQ., and J. 2. Islcy, ESQ., Superintendent
Of our railroad, advising them that the Memphis
Branch railroad would be formally opened Cor traf
fc on the 18th inct- at which time Mr.. Mcleod
would hand over the railroad to the acting Super
intendent, and the act would be celebratedby an
excursion to Ciarksvire. This rather upset the
ideas Of our folks who had calculated to celebrate
ii on the 22d, and it was Immediately resolved to
change our day Of celebration from the 22d to the
18th. We understand, however, that 10 barbecue
will be given at first proposed, but that large
supper viii be given at Moores Hotel. We are sor-
ry to hear that the barbecue viii not come off but
console ourselves with the idea that we are four
days nearer connection with the Northern cities
than We supposed. We understand the supper is
to be the mcrriest affair ever gotten up in city,
and numbers Of distinguished men win honor the
table by their presence.

nea. We wish again to remind our readers that
the Conference of the Methodist Church will open,
in this city, on the 10th of October. There will be
very large number of clerical and lay visitors
here and nearly all Of them will have to be enter
tanned by the families in town. Every house in
town should be thrown open to them; every fami-
ly should entertain as many guests as they can. 1t
is due TO our character for hospitality as well as to
the interests of religion. Families in town. of 9TH
er denominations, should embrace this opportunity
of extending their courtesy to their Methodist breth
rem by aiding in the entertainment of visitors and
members of the Conference. GAINESVILLE was Sc
Iected for this Conference by unanimous vote of
the last one, and we should, by exhibiting most
gracious hospitality the OCCASION show ourselves
worthy of that high compliment
