face and neck, and then quickly left
the saloon. Judge Smith, during the
scene, stood near, with the pistol
taken from the girl i'm his hand, but
did not raise his arm or speak until he
saw or thought he saw Luigi make a
move a. il to take a pistol OF other
weapon from beneath the counter, lust
as the whip was applied, when he
presented the pistol at Luigi, saying:
If you draw a pistol or iniure that
girl ! will Kill your a Sergeant Of
the Second district police, passing by,
heard the remark, went into the sa-
loon and disarmed the Judge and
sent the pistol 10 the station. The
barkeeper made complaint against
Judge 5. and the girl, charging them
with an assault. As above stated, the
case was tried yesterday afternoon,
and the defendants fined five dollars
each, from which decision the counsel
for the defense gave notice that he
would appeal, and asked that the
necessary bonds be made out. Gen.
Wallace for the defense and Col. Cole
man for the prosecution. During the
examination the scene at times was
decidedly rich, and had a more irras-
chile magistrate presided, the whole
party would have stood excellent
chances of being locked up for con-
tempt, but the superintendent pre-
served his temper and finally gath
cred enough from counsel, plaintiff,
defendant, witnesses and spectators to
warrant him in rendering his decis-
ion.
Bones of COWS and horses, in two
great heaps, r piled up at the Ohio
Railroad station for shipment to New
York. Why should these bones be
shipped away? Are not phOsphates
Of lime and other constituent elements
Of bones rs needful here as in colder
regions, and must the process of re-
ductiOn be undergone in New York
that the original elements may be re-
turned to dealers in guanO in this and
other Southern cities? The machinery
required in reducing bones to powder
IS simple and not costly. If the New
York trade in Southern bones
be profitable, would not Memphis
gain enormous profits in freight
charges saved? Who will establish a
bone mill? Go look at the great
heaps of Ossified animal matter at the
Ohio Railroad depot, and reflect upon
human folly. There are two stories
told; the enc, significant Of Southern
wastefulness; the other of Northern
readiness to seize every means for the
production Of wealth. Every solid
bone in all those piles will furnish the
fabulous +" last button on some Gahe's
shirt,'h and every horn will lessen
some Southerner's ability to "take a
horn" Combs and knife handles by
the score viii come from those bone
heaps, and We give them away to buy
them again. When shall we learn
wisdom?

FARGAsoN Il CLAY.-Fery many of
our merchants are wide awake to the
importance of letting the public know
that they still live. This is particu-
larly necessary when we consider the
Thousand and n changes made in
