ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room il is generally the custom, as every
one knows. TO have several champions present "a
entertain the public FOR A FEW HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people.
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as II Is sometimes the custom of giving
proof Of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
give ten per cent. of our profit to the poor of
Nashville, from the lst day of April, 1867, up to
October LIST, 1857, (slx months.l which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash

ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain il.

THE Louisville Courier makes mention
of the depIorable misfortunes Of Tennes-
see widow, as follows; In one of the mis-
cradle sheds at the corner of Tenth and
Broadway, there is widow whose husband
died during the war in a military prison.
During the recent flood at Chattanooga, on
the Tennessee river, she, with her three
children--two sprightly little boys and
girl-were washed out Of house and home,
losing their little all, and barely escaping
with their lives. Coming here in search Of
a land Of plenty, toll, priyation and expo
sure, have at last rendered her helpless.
She iies now in one of those wretched
novels, utterly destitute, and so Frustrated
by paralysis that she is nnable even to wash
and dress her children.
SATURDAY night, between enc and two
O'Clock, burglar attempted to enter the
dwelling Of Mrs. Peguad, on Line street
between Cherry and Summer, By the front
door, but was foiled by the strength of the
lock. He then forced a window shutter,
hoisted the sash and climbed in. But here
he was brought TO pause by a screaming
woman, and finally the sight of short gun
made him leave in hurry. The fellow
seemed very determined in his intention TO
get IN and quite as determined in his inten
ton to get out.

A. Baker, Capt. Jack Cartwright, day before
yesterday, the Concordia Club of this city,
with their wives, families, and sweethearts,
and number Of invited guests, steamed
mp the Cumberland as far as Priestley 3
Spring, distant about seven miles from the
city, on the south side Of the river. The
day was one of the finest Of the season, the
copious rains which had fallen the night
previous adding freshness and beauty to
the woods and lawns. All along our classic
little river the landscape was enchanting
and lovely; and the entire party, glad TO
escape from the care and wear of the city
for one day, enjoyed themselves TO the
fullest. Nothing occurred to mar the hap
piness of the day and all returned to the
city about dusk, pleased and satisfied with
the trip. Everything connected with the
picnic was perfect, rejecting the utmost
credit on the managers, Messrs. l.. y.
Loyenthsl, n. Task, S. Landauer, A.
Meyer, NJ. Rosenheim, and A. Loveman.
