FORTUNE TELLING. - Memphis is
great city and still becoming greater, but
with its improvement tits also increasing
in sin. We recollect very well when the
first fortune-teller passed through the
city, and the hutter it created among
certain class But we've improved since
them we have fortune-telling in album
dance. You can see the sign sticking
out from many door, and we suppose
there must be p1enty of easily gulled
people who keepthose institutions living.
1t is the same old story A dark haired
person enters, and the fortune-teler
pockets the money and gives the fortune
seeker the valuable information, You
are soon to be married, but beware of the
lighthaired MANI and, of course, the
light-haired individual is to beware of the
dark-haired chap, while the fortune
teller is to pocket the greenbacks. The
whole thing is gambling institution,
where the victim gets no chance to any
kenor' These places are getting nu-
merous, and the city will be wise if it
collects good revenue from the trade
that makes money without capital

FAST RIDING. Many of our young
men seem to have a great liking to driv-
ing buggies on Sunday at break-neck
speed, without thinking of the danger to
pedestrians. Yesterday two fast young
men, driving up Main street, while in the
vicinity of Commerce street, drove
through a crowd of young boys, who
were playing, and ran over a little fell
low, luckily. however. without doing him
any harm. The drivers face got as
white as sheet, but he was much relieved
on finding that the boy was more scared
than hurt This should be a lesson for
that fast young man, and he should feel
thankful that it was so eheaply bought

Insurance FIRM-It is well-known
fact that the Ktna Insurance Company
is one of the oldest, strongest, and most
reliable in the country. 1t has always
paid up punctually every loss incurred,
and its reliability has almost became a
household word Mr. II. A. Littleton, so
long its well known and clever agent in
Memphis, has associated with himself our
old and popular fellow-townsman, Dan.
Able, Esq, whose name is tower of
strength, and carries with it an influence
second to none in the State. The Etna
Insurance Company has always been
great favorite among the merchants of
Memphis, and with its present amiable
and clever agents to manage its affairs
in this city, it cannot help but be gaining
upon its well earned reputation. Those
who are not yet insured should do so at
once. There are many good companies
who have agents here, and the Etna is
decidedly one of the first in the nation.
