Mr.. EDMoSDs Nor DEAD.-The an.
nouncement of Mr.. Walker Edmonds'
death was premature. We learn from
Mr.. John P. Proudft, who has been
nursing Edmonds, that the latter was
doing very well last night The ball of
the assassin entered the brain, small
particles of which have oozed out; yet
his friends entertain strong hopes of his
recovery. This is most gratifying intel
lipence, not only to Mr.. Edmonds' rela-
tives and personal friends, but the com
munity at large, who sympathize with
him in his suferings.

New MEMPHIS THEATER.-The play OF
81 Iropez was presented to rather
small audience last night. Its scene is
an island, and like island dramas gen.
orally, it is replete with thrilling, not to
say horrible incidents Henri" (Mr.
Msyo) marries "Amelie" (Mrs. Allen
in France, and takes her to ST. Tropez,
his island home. He had previously
saved her father from beggary and too
late discovers that she married him out of
gratitude, her heart having long be-
fore been given to one "Charles" (Mr.
Brown. This produces an estrange-
ment, and for months the newly-wedded
pair avoid each other. Antoine Mr..
Roche), an old follower of " Henri" and
esteemed as brother, but who in reality
is scoundrel plotting to obtain posses
sion of Henri's" wealth, discovers the
state of affairs by overhearing an inter-
view between "Amelie and "Charles.
He Systematically commenced poisoning
" Henris" mind against "Amelie," and
confirms the aroused suspicious by pro.
ducing letter given by her to Charles"
but accidentally dropped. Henri,
crazed at his wife's perfdy, revokes
will in his wife's favor, and places in
"Antoine's" hand an old one bequeathing
his property to his ("Antoines") son.
Antoine +" is now impatient for Hen
ri's" death. The latter is taken i'll, and
in each draught administered him (pre
pared by his wife, Antoine " contrives
to mingle slow poison, whose presence
is at last discovered and revealed to the
sufferer by "Charles," who subjects the
medicine to chemical analysis. "Amelie'
entering, and in reply to question,
stating that the medicine is daily prepared
by her only, he is convinced that she is
seeking to poison him. When the medi.
cine is next brought in, Henri" is re-
moved to a chair before the mirror.
Antoine" before administering the
draught, empties powder in the glass
The action is discovered by Henri
while looking in the glass. The truth at
once flashes upon him; by an almost
herculean effort he arises, turns upon
Antoine" dashes the cup from his
hand, and both fall to the floor together
Antoine now attempts to complete
his work, but is prevented by the timely
arrival of Charles" Amelia and
others. "Antoine" is arrested, expla.
nations ensue, and the curtain
falls on Heuri's death scene.
The play does not afford single
relief, the plot and incidents being Ia
gubrious throughout and leaving mel
ancholy impress. However, it affords
Mr.. Mayo an opportunity for some very
fine acting. Messrs. Roche and Brown
and Mrs Allen and Miss Waldron cred.
itably sustained their respective parts.
To night we are to have Richelieu, with
Mr.. Mayo in the title role, and Mrs.
Allen as Julie" Those who desire q
rare dramatic treat should witness Mr..
Mayo's Richelieu."

A CARD FROM MAYOR LoFLAsD. Ed.
tors Ledger A communication re-
Gently published by myself, in which l
announced my intention to look to the
ballot box for an Endorsement Of the
policy and measures Of my adminislra-
ton, has been construed as declaration
upon my part TO continue a candidate
for the MayorAlty in opposition to the
wishes of my constituents, and as
altogether ignoring any proposition for
a Convention Of the people. Such was
certainly NOT my intention. While
am not prepared to yield to per-
sonal and clique opposition which
has not. looked upon my official
record through other glasses than
those Of blind prejudice, nor spoken
Of my administration other than in On
erparte manner, am nop and have
at all times heretofore been willing and
ready to abide by the wishes of my con-
stitsents at large and to accede to the
behests Of the people fairly and properly
assembled in convention. My record
for the past eighteen months, with
all its surroundings, and the unpre-
cedeuted difficulties under which it has
been written, is before the people. If
they are dissatisfied with the efforts which
/ have made for the public veal, or the
results Of those efforts; or if they desire
for any other reason a different candi-
date for the Mayoralty than myself, /
have only to say, that | am ready to re-
tire from the contest, and to give my
cooperation and support to any gentle
man to whom my constituents are will
