while others only need hint that there is
something rotten in Denmark we will
just take this occasion 20 put in print few
notorious facts connected with the best in

Memphis and New Orleans Several weeks
ago various parties here-it is, useless to

swung out the old line Of trade with
Memphis and hustled off considerable cot
ton to New Orleans. The consequence was
every shipper to Orleans sustained losses
that caused him to deeply regret that he
had ever heard Of the big city at the South
ern terminus of the New Orleans, jackson
and Great Nothern Railroad. On the 9th
er hand, we can safely say that on every
bale of cotton shipped from this place to
Memphis, our natural outlet, handsome
profit has been realized. We are of the
opinion that the lesson just learned by some
of our merchants will be remembered for a
long time to come, and that hereafter Mem
phis will be looked upon as the safest, surest,
best and most convenient point to ship cot
ton to as well as the best market to purchase
plantation supplies at. "Stick to your

In constructing a new local railway be-
tween Manchester and Didsbury, in Great
Britain, gauge of 81 feet is proposed, as
ansU ering al the requirements of the line
as well as the usual 4 feet 81 inches width
and costing, with the rolling stock, one third
less. Railways of this gauge, it is said, have
been adopted in Queensland, Ceylon, Belgium
and Norway, with salts factory results. The
locomotives to be used will weigh fifteen
tons, and their speed be limited to twenty
FIVE miles per hour. The carriages will be
like our street cars, 20 feet long, feet wide,
and G. feet high inside, and will accommo-
date twelve passengers on each side, giving
over 80 cubic feet Of space to each.

On the-6th inst, at his room in Memphis,
man by the name Of S. A. Doran, formerly
of Louisville, shot and killed Captain Ed.
Whitfield, Of the firm Of Moore & Whitfield.
Doran was arrested and confined in jail
upon 4 charge Of murder in the first degree.
The facts, as we learn, are as follows ::
Doran rented a room from deceased; con
corning the rent misunderstanding took
place; Doran denounced Whitfield in pub
lie card; in company with Mr.. Moore, de-
ceased went to Doran's room; once there,
inside Of closed doors, the terrible tragedy
was enacted. Doran states that Whitfield
fred at him first, that he then shot and
killed his antagonist in self defense. There
are no witnesses, as Mr.. Moore was not in
the room at the time the shooting took
place.
