A MosT WORTHY 0RJEcT.-It should
not be forgotten that the grand tourna-
ment to take place on the 22d inst, is
given for most worthy object, and one
that should be dear TO the heart of every
man who loves the South-who honors
the brave, and who has that respect for
his native land that every true man shosld
have. Besides oil this, the tournament
will truly be the graDdest display Of the
youth and beauty Of our country, that
ever assembled TO witness the romantic
and interesting representations Of the
famous days of chivalry. Once more

DARING OUTRAGE.
A Man Struck senseless with slung-
Shot in his Room. and Robbed Of Five
Hundred Dollars.

Shot in his Room, and Robbed oil Five
Hundred Dollars.
Probably the most daring outrage that
was ever perpetrated in our city was
committed yesterday on one Of the
boarders of the Gayoso House. The
particulars, as we learn them, are that
Mr. Charles Dunn, Of the firm of Bar
brux & Co., Louisville, who has been in
Helena experimenting the building of a
foundry at that place, arrived here early
in the morning, on steamer When he
landed man came up to him and asked
if he wanted hack, to which Mr..
Dunn replied in the affirmative The
hack was procured and the parties
started for the Gayoso House. On
reaching the hotel Mr.. Dunn dismouned
and paid the hackman the regular fare
one dollar Here the man who first
asked him if he wanted hack came up
and said he had to be paid for his trout
BILE, and claimed five dollars, which
Mr.. Dunn refused to pay and entered the
hotel, where he was given room, and went
upstairs. He had only been in bed
short time when he heard some one
knocking at his door, and thinking it was
some servant boy who wanted to get his
boots for the purpose of backing them,
he opened it, when the same man who
claimed the FIVE dollars entered and
said he must be paid for his work Mr..
Dunn, desiring to get rid of him, put his
hand in his vest pocket and pulled out
pocket-book containing over five hundred
dollars, from which he took dollar bill
and told the man that he gave him that
dollar rather than to be again disturbed
by him. The man went away, and MIR.
Dunn had hardly been five minutes in
bed before the fellow again returned, and
without any ceremony, entered the room.
As he did so he said tc Mr. Dunn that he
had only given him one dollar bill, and
he must, and would, have the five. Mr.
Dunn arose in his bed and told the ruff
fan to leave his room, and quickly, or
he would put him out. Here the ruifian
started for the bed, and when Mr.. Dunn
attempted to get up, he seized him by
the throat While they were in the
struggle another man came, in whom
Mr.. Dunn believes he recognized the
hackman, who struck him severe blow
over the head with slung-shot two or
three times, making several frightfaL
gashes, from the effects of which he was
knocked senseless. While Mr.. Dunn was
in this condition, the ruffians robbed him
of the FIVE hundred dollars and left him,
no doubt thinking he was dead, from the
effects of the blows. That an outrage
like this should be committed in one of
cur most popular and frequented hotels
is something to be wondered at, and only
ADDS to the Nervousness of the crime 1t
shows how bold and daring are the burg
lars and rufians, and that a person can
not trust himself in a hack after hours
without being fully prepared for any emer-
gency. That the two rufians who plum
dered and brutally beat Mr. Dunn were
accomplices, and running the hack, there
can scarcely be doubt

ROBBERY or GENERAL Bon Foster
The rooms occupied by General Bob
Foster at the Gayoso House were entered
yesterday morning and the General
robbed of two hundred dollars, while he
was sleeping. The watch of the General
escaped the hands of the depredator by
falling while the thief was in the act Of
leaving the room General Foster was
robbed almost in the same way at one of
the hotels in New Orleans short time
ago 1t is to be hoped the burglars will
be caught and meted out that justice
which they richly deserve.

A Worn TO CoSvALEsoESrs.-Espe-
cial care should be given to the diet, take
light food and but little at a time. Great
care should be taken not to take any
thing indigestable into the stomach.
Many persons when recovering from
fevers have craving appetites, and not
unfrequently, through the over attentions
of the nurse, mix together in the stomach
the most homogeneous articles of food;
others, again, recovering from disease,
have no appetite at all, and need some
gentle tonic and stimulant to assist the
internal organs of the body to perform
their regular functions. To such we
say, procure Robdcks Stomach Bifters,
commence with a small quantity in sugar
and water, and as the strength returns,
increase the dose, and continue them
until all symptoms of debility have dis
appeared ml0-lw

GREENLAw's OPERA HOUSE,. The mag
nifcent work of art which is to be exhib-
tied at the Greenlaw Opera House, next
Monday evening, is truly one of the most
splendid paintings that has ever visited
the West We have the opinion Of the
press from some of the largest cities of
the country, and all speak Of it in the
highest praise As historical work it
is ranked by none, and has been so
pronounced by the judges of art The
best feature of the great panorama is a
view of Charleston and its harbor, with
the bombardment of Fort Sumter; show
ing howSit appeared before and after the
great attack. There is nothing more
elevating than the examination of works
of art. Americans, as a general rule,
have not that appreciation which they
ought to have for it, though the genius OF
the country probably surpasses that OF
any other nation. Until the mind can
be instructed to that high admiration
genius, though bright, will not be appre
ciated. We trust the house will be
crowded to witness this exhibition, and
thereby show that Memphis appreciates
talent and knows how to admire it.
