Very little cotton is changing hands at any

little stock in market and small demand. We

The MEMPHIS Boar CLUB.-Among
the institutions that the city will soon
have reason to be proud Of is the Men,
phis Boat Club, which, although organ
lied several months since, has conducted
its affairs so quietly and unostentatiouSly
as scarcely to excite remark. The Club
is composed of quite number ofyoung
gentlemen of the city, whose sedentery
pursuits render the vigorous exercise Of
rowing both healthful and pleasure. The
president of the organization is our
genial young friend, Mr.. Ben. A. Sbep.
herd, of Shepherd, Watkins & Co., who
not only makes an admirable presiding
officer but an excellent hand at the oar.
On or about the 10Th proximo a grand
regatta will be given, in which the Club
designs participating. The contest will
be between the boats "Ivanho and
Magnolia" and the parties interested
are practicing two or three evenings per
week for the .event. The race will be
a pleasant affair, which will prove inter
esting, not only to those Immediately
concerned, but to all who admire boat
racing. Due notice will be given of the

The MEMPHIS AND LiTTLE Rock RAIL.
ROAD. The completion Of the Memphis
and Little Rock railroad will prove of
incalculable benefit to Memphis. II will
fully open up to her the rich agricultural
country on the st. Francis, White and
Arkansas rivers, pouring into her lap
their entire trade. In this connection
we are gratified to announce that ar
rangements have been perfected to insure
the speedy completion of the work. A
contract has been closed by the company
with Mr.. Denmead, of Georgia, who will
at once proceed to put the track in first
rate order between Little Rock and Du-
wallis Bluff, and rebuild or repair, as may
be deemed necessary, the line between
Hopefeld and st. Francis river The
work is to be completed by January l,
1868. The work on the middle division,
between the St. Francis and White rivers,
is being rapidly pushed forward, and in
few months our railway connection
with the Arkansas capital will be nearly
complete. Our mercantile community
are more interested in securing the COM
petion of this line than any other pub
lie enterprise. What we want is con-
nections with the South, Southeast and
Southwest. 1t is those regions which
will build up Memphis. To them does
she look, alone. for prosperity and
every dollar spent in Iron Mountain or
other Northern lines is simply contribu
ting to the ruin of our commercial in
terests. If the North desires any more
railroad connections with Memphis, let
her furnish them and let our people re-
fuse to place weapons in the hands of
others and thus assist in our own de-
struction.

What a Little Boy Can Do

there lived a respectable family
ah6na whom was a son eight years

Young as he was, he was admitted
10 the church, and never gave occa-
sion to doubt the sincerity Of his
profession.
After a few years the family. re re,
moved to Michigan, and located in
new place, where there was no
church or Sabbath school.
When he was IA years old, he ask,
cd his parents permission to try to
get up a Sabbath school. He was
allowed to make the attempt, bl I
wasltold that he would certainly
fail. But nothing daunted he went
from house to house, and obtained
the consent Of all that their children
might attend. AT the same time
they thought he would be sure to
fail. At the time and place ap-
pointed, not only the children but
many of their parents assembled
lie opened the school and proceed
cd to impart instruction as best llt
could. This he continued to dc
from Sabbath to Sabbath. The pa
rents became interested, and iel
