EXTENSION OF CRY LIMITS AND REPEAL
OF MUNICIPAL REGISTRATION LAw.-The
bill, funding the city debt, extending the
city limits and repeating the municipal
registration law, by which fraud was to
be prevented, became law yesterday.
According to the new law, the following
are the city's boundaries; Beginning
at the mouth of Wolf river, to a
point directly west to Brinkley street,
thence east to Moseley avenue,
south to Raleigh road; thence east
to Brinkley avenue, south on a
line with this avenue to Dunlap street,
and by Dunlap street to Walker avenue,
thence west to the Mississippi river, and
by the river to the place of beginning.
The repeal of the registration law will
give the Radicals an opportunity of
inundating the polls on election day with
negroes imported from the country. 1t
was for purposes of corruption that the
enactment was repealed.

THE PRICE OF
GAS REDUCED!
DOR GAS SUPPLIED FROM AND AFTER
IL this date. the
MEMPHIS GASLIGHT COMPANY

will abate ONE DOLLAR AND TWENTY
CENTS per fyDO cubic feet from the price here
tofore charged.
The nett price will be Four Dollars and Fifty
Cents per 1000 Gu bic feet, if paid promptly in
accordance with the Compan 3 rules as stated
on every bill rendered; If not so raid the price
will be five dollars per 1000 cubic feet.
Much has been said and written about the
price of gas and generally in an unfair spirit.
1t is believed, on comparing the greatly re-
duced rate of this Company with the prices
charged elsewhere. that most thinking persons
will be fully satisfied with it.
In Galveston the rate is IS PEI 1000 cubic feet
In Savannah. Mobi @. Charleston. Vicksburg
and Natchez the price is SO per 1000 cubic feet.
In Norfolk. So; St Louis, Nashvi 10, Cairo,
Paducah and Madison, 81 10, and in New Or
leans, 81 per 1000 cubic feet.
The average price on the Mississippi river.
from St. Louis to New Orleans, and including
those cities, is IS per 1000 cubic fe {.
Gas may be made and sold at less expense on
the sea cost than in this city. yet the Company
have reduced the rate far below the prices OBJ
tanned in southern seaport cities. and Glow
the average price in towns and cities on the
Missis ippi river.
In Cincinnati the rate is 50 IS per 1000 cubic
feet, and in Louisville, 50 TO-; but when their
better facilities for obta ming coal at alf the
cost il can be had at this place. and the vastly
greater consumption of gas in large cities is
considered. the price proposed must appear as
comparatively cap.

A Coon GENERAL AUCTION AND Con-
MISSION HoUsE.-Among the auction and
commission houses in the city none is
more favorably known or more fully
deserves public confidence than that of
Mr.. II. Van Brocklin, No. 394 Madison
street. He does general auction and
commission business, selling either at
auction or private sale furniture, dry
goods, clothing, horses, mares, mules,
stock of all kinds, and almost everything
else which can be made to bring money.
He has now in his stables some fine young
horses, mares and mules, and has stock
sales daily. All kinds of Government
property is constantly on sale, and per-
sons wanting harness, wagons, etc., can
obtain them there at the lowest ratesg
either at auction or otherwise. Mr.. Van
Brocklin conducts many of the largest
sales made by underwriters, whose con-
tinued patronage is as indubitable evil
dence as could be offered of his merit as
an auctioueer. He pays particular at
tention to underwater $, merchants and
trust sales, and has never failed to give
perfect satisfaction to all concerned.
People having furniture or other property
for sale, should give Mr.. Van Brocklin
call, as he will obtain the highest prices
for it. Butchers will be interested in
learning that Mr.. Van Brocklin is daily
anticipating the arrival, on sale, of some
splendid young beef cattle. We have
had many business transactions with
Mr.. Van Brocklin, and have always
found him upright in his dealings He
may be implicitly relied on as perform
ing exactly what he promises in every
instance, doing business entirely on the
square"
