not been able to agree up to late hour
last evening. There is little probability
that an agreement will ever take place
and the only question seems to be
whether the Jury is to be discharged by
consent of the defendant OF to be kept
confined until the close of the present
term, some time in January next. How
ever, as is truly said, "NOthing is ire
pressible for a jury" q verdict may be
rendered by Friday morning. Owing to
the illness Of Judge Hunter the Court
vas adjourned by the Clerk over to Fri
day. On that day the jail cases will con-
tinue to be called up for trial.
IooMxUNIcATED
MEMPHIS, November q, 1857.
Editors Memphis Appeal:
find my name in a list Of applications
filed under the bankrupt law published
in tO-day's Post. 1 do not know the
motive Of publication, but it is certainly
calculated, unexplained, to injure me.
The facts are, that the First National
Bank, of this city, has, since November,
1856, held two memoranda checks given
by me, which, on account Of the depres-
sion Of business and the scarcity Of
money, I have been unable to pay. The
officers of the bank knew that / had an
abundance OF means to pay all my debts,
and that my reasons for not paying the
checks was those / have stated, but not
w~ithstanding, they filed In the begin
ming of the September Term of the Uni
ted States District Court their petition,
asking that 1 be adjudged a bankrupt
their only ground being my failure to
pay the checks mentioned. That this
ground Wascnot sufficient every lawyer
knows, AID the First National Bank has
confessed as much by delaying the hear
ing of their motion for a rule upon me to
show cause, etc, which they have done
up to the present time, and, also, by
bringing an ordinary suit against me for
the checks. The object for the officers of
the bank was to iDjure my credit, and /
do not doubt but they have done so, and
for this injury l propose at the proper
tho to call upon them for repsration.
My only object now is to assure the pub
lie that / do not iRtend TO go into bank
ruptey voluntarily, and that there is no
just ground for attempting TO force me
into it Involuntary.
SHOOTING NEAR HUMROLDT.-About
one and q half miles east of Humboldt,
pear the railroad, an affray took place
on Tuesday. between James Walker and
James Ritter. The parties had q dispute
about a horse collar, in which harsh Ian
gusge was used, when Ritter drew a
revolver and fired twice, n ball strik-
ing Walker in the n~eighborhOod Of the
left lung. After being shot, the wounded
man seized an ak and inflicted an ugly
wound in Ritter's shoulder. Walkers
wound may result fatally.
AN MIssIoN.-Iu our notice yesterday
of the proposed closing Of our banking
houses to-day on the occasion of the Ma
tional Thanksgiving the names OF the LIST
National Bank and the Savings Bank of
Memphis were Inadvertently omitted.
Our paragraph was not intended to APP
ply to either Of the above institutions in
any way. d. ]. Wicks and W. C.. Nc
Clure are too well known not only to our
immediate friends, but the business COM
munity generally, to suppose that we
intended to refer TO them. The oversight
was one that often happens and we has
ten to correct thy the only means in our
power.
TIE OLIVE BRAN0H-This packet, of
the Atlantic and Mississippi Steamship
Line, passed up yesterday for Cairo. She
will return to this port on Monday, and
will load for New Oheans, leaving on
Wednesday evening. She expects to stay
in the Memphis and New Orleans trade
as long as business will justify her in
doing so, and ~solicits q share of patron
age. Capt. Isaac Jones, a well known
officer, has charge of the Olive Branch,
and we are satisfied that. so far as lies in
his power, be win do all he can towards
making his packet both reliable and
pleasant to travel upon. Larry Harm.
stad 4 Co, are her agents.
"SoUrHERN SoCIETY,7' published at
Baltimore, is one of the most elegant
and meritoriOus literary journals ever
produced in this country. Its contents
are Just such as a lady of taste aud cul-
ture would wish to have placed before
her every week; and, As for that, no
educated gentleman would turn away
from Southern Society with any other
judgment than that Of satisfaction and
admiration for its noble and successful
stand in behalf Of Southern literature
and .SOuthern SOciety.r We welcome
It as an unmistakahle harbinger of a new
and e%nterprising effort on the part of
Southern itterdtsurs to foster and build
up Southern genius and talent. Let our
people sustain it, and it will repay a
thousand fold its cost.
ANOTHER BURaLARY.-The house of
Madame Wray, No. 121 Union street,
was entered by some burglars on Mon
day night. They succeeded in carrying
off fifteen dollars and a half in gold, q
lot of jewelry and charms, a set of furs,
two parasOls, a lot Of ladies' uBderclothes
and q blue silk dress. 4 splendid velvet
dress and Jacket was left behind. From
appearances ii is evident that the Job was
"put up,n as a bunch Of keys was found
on g chair, among which were NJ. & c..
R. r. box ear keys, U. s. NJ. car and
other keys. Three negro women who
lived OF the lot were arrested OF suspi-
ciOn. None Of the property has as yet
been recovered. Those who would rob
the widow and the fatherless would do
worse.
