TIE DEATH OF Mr.. MYERs.-It will bs
seen by our special dispatch that a rumol
Z has gained currency in Nashville to tbs
effect that Abram Myers, one Of the Radi
cal candidates for Mayor Of that city, came
to his death here through foul means, in
order to clear the track for his opponent
Alden. 1t is further stated that large
sum Of money has been raised and de-
tectives dispatched to this city to investi-
gate and ferret out the maner in which he
came to his death. In order to relieve the
minds Of those who may feel disposed to
credit the rumor, we will now simply state
fact which was omitted in the accounts
published by the press of the city. On ar
irving here, Mr.. Myers met several of his
friends, and INDUCED in drink to such an
extent that he was incapable of writing his
name legibly, and signally failed in an ri
attept to do so. That he was very much
intoxicated there can be no doubt, and the
committee of investigation will soon aseer-
tain the fact from the friends of the deceased.
1t is evident that in coming out of the
door to the porch, he staggered against the
bannister, and being heavy man, and the
paling very rotten and dilapidated, the top
board broke, as can be seen, precipltating
him to the pavement below. Had he not
fallen on his head it is not at all probable
that he would have been killed, although
he nigh have broken or dislocated limb.
These are the facts, and we apprehend that
the detectives will not consume much
time in our city before they are convinced
of the correctness of this statement.-LOuis-
Cttte Courier, 1lh.

The New LIGHT-Haying tested the
Oriental oil, presented to the public by
Messrs. Achey, O'Connell q Co., We feel
warranted in saying that it is all that these
gentlemen claim it to be- 1t may be used
in any ordinary coal oil lamps simply by
substituting what is known as the Light
house burner" The oriental oil is about
one-half cheaper than coal oil, aud is not
consumed in greater quantities. II affords
a clear, steady and brilliant light gives
no odor in burning; yields no smoke; no
grease appears on the outside of the lamp,
and does not give out the degree of heat
that other oils do. In all these respects it
appears TO us superior to any oil we have
ever used. 1t is claimed TO be non-explo-
siye. We have made no experiments TO
determine that matter but from those
made in our sight, We feel entirely safe in
its presence. In a word, we recommend it
as being all that is claimed for it in the
advertisement in another column, to which
we refer the reader for further information

JUsT SAVED HIS BACoE.-A printer, one
D. c. White, from the Mississippi
department, working in the Banner Office,
became so much fascinated with one of the
feminines, that he concluded he would go
into the matrimony business without taking
ont license. Having been reveling for
some time in all the bliss of conjugal love,
without it being sanctioned by law, the
police, those argus-eyed preservers of the
peace, went to arrest him, but he had been
a printer too long to be overtaken in that
way. Finding out that he was to be ar
rested, he got his license and marched
boldly up to the altar and was married. A
few moments afterward, the police came in
to arrest him, but he Claimed oblivion of

REGULAR MONTHLY DRAwIEGs.-For
nearly three months there has been an alb
solute suspension of business. All the
money in the city and country has been in
vested in plantation supplies, and gone to
cities in the Northwest Agents of the
Southern Asylum, everywhere, write that
nothing can be done till cotton loosens the
tight money market. 1t is needless to dis
pose Of part Of the property embraced in
schemes before the public. Therefore as
already announced, the two drawings of the
Southern Asylum will occur, the farmers
one dollar, and city five dollar scheme, on
the third Monday in October. There will
be no future postponements, and after these
two, through the winter and spring, there
will be regular monthly drawings Msu-

Special Notice,

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, as every
one knows, to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR A FEW HOURS; but on
account of 30 much suffering among our people.
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as 1t IS sometimes the custom OF giving
premiums, such as Watches etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
give ten per cent. of our profit to the poor of
Nashville, from the lst day Of April. 1857, up to
October lst, 1867, six months,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash
Vile We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general viii appreciate the
cause and sustain it.

JUSTICE WILKINsoN's CoURT.-J. B.
West was arrested and brought before this
court for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. 1t seems that he had gone largely
into the mercantile business with Mr..
Smith, on 2 capital Of twenty seven dollars,
three partners being in the concern. After
carrying on the business for some weeks,
they discovered that the establishment
would not support three families, and dis
solved partnership. In their settlement,
Mr. West fell in debt TO the concern and
his partner, Mr.. Smith, accused him of
