On walking up TO the lady apparent, he,
she, or IL, moved of at such rate as to
induce the said Waterman to send a
small ball from his navy pistol after
this most remarkable parsonage, which
only induced the object 10 vanish more

NEw COMMISSIONER -It has already
been announced through the press that
Mr. 8. B. Beaumont has been elected as
Superintendent of the Memphis and
Little Rock railroad, instead of Mr..
Robertson, who resigned. We have little
doubt that the position will be accepted
as Colonel Beaumont is familiar with
railroading, having followed the business
for many years. The impression that
there will be vacancy in the Police
Commission BY the resignation of Colonel
Beaumont, has caused good many sspi-
rants for the place. From the best informa-
ton gotten on the street,we are informed
that Barbour Lewis, the soondsr OF tAe
oos. has put forth N. 7. Williamson as
his candidate. Mr.. G. W. Haywood is
supposed to be the candidate Of the Beau
mont and Num- party, while W.. j..
Smith, the hero of Msson's depot, has
thrown his banner to the breeze, and in
scribed on it's folds, p d. Beecber, known
as Little Pedee Mr.. Pat. Winters is

New MEMPHIS IHEATER.-As usual
the theater was crowded, packed and
jammed from pit to dome last night, and
why 2 Simply because it was the popular
night It is the strangest thing to Us and
the majority of the community why so
many congregate at the theater on FRI
day night, while it is acknowledged BY
all that the most unpopular plays are
posted, and so few on other nights, when
the best and most deserving plays are
presented. We have come to the con-
clusion that Friday is selected more for
the observation Of visitors, and the ex-
hibition Of self, than for the appre-
citation of the play. This conclusion
is justifable, we think, when we con.
slider that those who wish to have full
comprehension of the play are deprived
by others who destroy the interest by
quitting their seats and leaving the the
ater before the curtain falls, to the annoy
ance Of those who wish to have the full
benefit Of their visit by remaining until
the scene closes, and the company have
finished their performance. We do hope
that this practice, growing nightly
10 be almost shameful, will be amended
