LAND LoTTERY.-A correspondent tells
US that the Southern Asylum Land Lot
terry subdivided its lands in the first
drawing into parcels too small. No one
questions the fact that the property dis
tributed was equal to the face value Of
tickets sold, but when II 90 in on lot
terry and invest FIVE dollars, want to win
more than FIVE hundred dollars" Our
correspondent should remember that
this lottery business is new one to
those who conduct the Southern Asylum,
Their purpose was to accommodate the
greatest possible number of ticket pur-
chasers. The advertisement Of the COM
pany in another place shows that the
managers of the lottery have learned
something. There are prizes large
enough in the scheme now advertised.
Col. Gallaway's residence, the capital
prize, cost $4,000. Tickets in this
scheme cost FIVE dollars; in the other,
which embodies farms, cost only one
dollar.

KEEP Cool ON ELECTION DAY-There
is not little alarm because the story
has gone abroad that the Bureau is gath
ering idle freedmen in the city from all
quarters Of the country. This is done
under the pretense of charity to those
discharged for political reasons by Con-
sentative employers. Just now labor on
farms is too desirable to make it possible
for farmers to send off laborers. 1t is
therefore device of Radicalism to gather
colored voters in this city. A black skin
is a parchment certificate of loyalty, and
every colored man, wherever his home,
is at once made voter. 1t is thought
that there will be ten thousand freedmen
in Memphis on election day. 1t is stated
that Barbour Lewis inducts them into
Loyal Leagues that they are sworn and
armed and instructed by him. They are
to avenge wrongs of riotous days of last
year. Let the people keep quiet. There
will be Federal soldiers enough sent
hither to preserve order; and if violence
be done, there are six thousand ex-
soldiers, who cannot vote and had no
connection with the riots, who may be
gathered IN three hours. Their old COM
manders are here These soldiers will
never harm q colored man if it may be
avoided; but if this reign of diabolism
begin, they who instigated it had better
beware There is no necessity for secret
clubs in the conduct of elections. A
colored member of Loyal League stated
Saturday that they we're armed and dis
ciplined, and would have merry time
on election day. General - advised
him to absent himself if that we're the
plan of his party.

The MISSISSIPPI DIARRHEA CORDIAL.
In the summers that have passed, thou
sands of sufferers from cholera, cholera
morbus, diarrhea and dysentery have
been relieved and permanently cured by
the use of the true and genuine Missis-
sippi Diarrhea Cordial, remedy which
is forever bound to maintain a perma-
nent place in public estimation. The
proprietors take pleasure in referring to
all the old citizens Of Memphis and nearly
oil the planters of the Mississippi valley
in testimony of the manifold medicinal
virtues of this wonderful medical dis
covery; it would not be too much for
them to state that this one remedy has
cured more cases and relieved more suf-
fering than all other remedies of its
class combined. Mansfield & Higbee,

GUARDING FLEToHER.-There is ru-
NOR afloat to the effect that Hon. A. j.
Fletcher, Brownlow's Secretary of State,
was very much afraid that some of the
Memphis rebels would shoot him, and
wore coat Of mail under his clothing
after the style of Butler at New Or
leans. His awkward movements on the
stage at the Greenlaw Opera House last
night looked as il the rumor had some
foundation, aside from the fact that a

riage to take him from the 0verton to

PRosPEoT OF A CRIcKET March BE.
TWEEN NV ORLEANS AND MEMPHs CLuBs
Notwithstanding that the advent of
sul.ry weather has seemingly brought
the season of field sports TO a close, an
interest among Memphis cricketers has
just been reawakened by the prospect Of
forthcoming match with no less for
midable rivals than the Crescent City
Club" of New Orleans. Mr.. Wilson,
Secretary Of the "St George Club" Of
this city, received on Saturday last a
letter proposing friendly game with the
Crescent City Club" upon neutral
grounds--naming, as suitable point
Jackson, Miss. A meeting Of the "St
Georges" has been called for this even,
ing, and there the subject o. the cores
pondence will be taken under eonsidera-
ton. We believe it to be the desire Of
the "SL. Georges" that their brother
cricketers should agree to play on their
own grounds in this city, and if the
challenge is accepted it will, in all
probability, be coupled with this propo-
sition.

NECESSITY FOR TT.

The want of a Line of Telegraph, located with
s'view to accommodate the river trade, has long
been felt Many important towns are now with
out any Geographic communication whatever, and
the lines now established between other points
are, in most cases, disconnected, following cir
curious routes, hundreds of miles out OF direct
course, causing vexatious and unnecessary delays
to business by reason of numerous repetitions
and the frequent interruptions Incident to long
lines When the facts are borne in mind that this
liability Of telegraph line to damage from any
cause is increased in the same proportion as III
length. and that the repetition OF a message dou
bles the time necessary for its trans mission, th'
great and very important advantages Of a diree
route over the circuitous ones now in operation
can readily be seen.
