On Thursday night we saw not less than
three or four horses making their way
through the streets without riders or dri-

grown tired Of long delay. There is a

ACCIDENT ON THE MEMPHIS AND
CHARLESTON RAILRoAD.-About l o'clock
yesterday morning, a dreadful collision
occurred on the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad, about four miles west of Corinth.
The passenger train bound for Memphis
collided with freight train, producing a
terrible smash up. We learn that four or
FIVE men were killed and many severely
wounded. The conductor of the passenger
train had his leg broken in several places,
and was so badly injured that no hopes are
entertained for his life To add to the hor-
rors Of the occasion, the cars took FIRE, and
il is rumored that at least two, unable to
extFicate themselves from the ruins, per
ished in the flames. The particulars Of
the melancholy affair have not yet been re-
ceived here.

CARELEss DRrY1NG.-A negro named
Major Turner was arrested on Thursday
charged with having been careless in driv-
ing an express wagon near the Louisville
depot. His want of attention Fresulted in
his running, over the foot Of horse stand
ing at the side Of the street. The Eeoiored
individual was broughtup before the Police
Court yesterday, and fined ffty-four dollars
for the offence The earelessness of some
of these negro drivers is repreheusibIe in
the extreme, and few .tolerably heavy
fines will doubtless have good effect.
UNsoPHIsTIcATED.-An individual from
the country was brought up before the
Police Court yesterday morning for walk
ing on the street with a woman of bad
character. He said in defense of his con-
duet, that the woman asked him some
question and that ne thought common ci-
Witty would dictate sufficient respect to
reply. Being fresh from the provincial
districts he was unaware, Of The evils of
such characters, and Of course fell into the
clutches of the police. He was fined four
teen dollars as a gentle admonition for fu-
ture good conduct In this direction. "

THANKSGIVING AT THE ST. CLoUD.-If
? proper observance Of Thanksgiving day
consists in a sumptuous dinner, most
elegantly served, the propfietors of this
justly popular Institution we're eminently
successful on Thursday last. This, however,
is nothing unusual az the St. Cload. Their
table is always well supplied and the uni
form courtesy and attention towards its
guests, on the part of all connected with
the house challenges general commenda-
ton. ga
a new feature ia its management is the
introduction Of eolored instead of white
servants, which experience has proven to
be the most reliable and convenient system
In this community at the present time.
THE HANLoS BRoTHERs.-We are graf
lied to be ableto state that these magnii-
cent artists are about to visit our city for a
number of days aud give US another oppor-
tlnity of seeing and admiring their won
derful and world-renowned fe5ts The
Hanlons are not unknown TO Nashville.
It will be remembered that they visited our
city during the fore part of last season, and
performed with grand success. The Won
derful trained dogs Of Prof. Tanner are
still connected with the combination, which
is rendered still more brilliant by the cele-
brated tight-rope Grtiste, Senorita Rosita.
The Brothers are now in Louisville, per-
forming nightly to crowded houses. They
will visit our city for one week, commencing
Monday, December 10th, and their advent
will certainly be an event in our amuse-
ment circles.
