STABBIYG ARRAY BETWEEN NEGROES.
Yesterday morning two representatives
of the msn-and-brother persuasion,
known as Geo. Harris and VIM. Burgher,
met in an alley near Alabama street and
proceeded to discuss, with more vigor
than eloquence, their respective claims
upon an ebon-hued damsel who had cap
tured both their susceptible hearts The
controversy, the merits whereof could
not be learned, waxed warm, and was
finally settled by Harris in the most up
proved method. Producing an ugly
looking knife he slashed away at Burgher,
stabbing him several times in different
portions of the body. The wounds are
serious and Burgher's case is considered
critical During the day Harris was
arrested and committed to the First Dis
triet station house.

BLACK Crook To.MoRRow NIGHT.--
The doors of the New Memphis Theater
will not be opened to the public tonight.
It has been ascertained that in order to-
present the grand spectacle of the
Black Crook as it should be, little
more time than has already been allowed
will be necessary. That all arrange
ments, mechanical, scenic and otherwise
can be perfected, it has been resolved to
defer the first representation of the
Black Crook until tomorrow evening.
By that time all arrangements will have
been completed, and the curtain rise on
a spectacle 10 every way worthy of the
celebrity it has attained elsewhere. To-
marrow evening, then, the Black Crook.

regret to learn that the wife of ex-Mayor
Park died yesterday. Mrs. Park was q
most estmabe lady, possessing, and
constantly illustrating in an eminent de-
gree, those Christian virtues which SO
adorn the sex. Her death is an ire
parable loss to her family and friends, to
the former of whom we tender our heart
felt sympathy in their bereavement.
