Another blazing hot day yester-
day.
There were two hundred and fifty
shares in the Chinese immigration
Company taken AT the adiOurnmentO of
the Convention.
Let every disfranchised man in
Memphis apply to the Registrar Ofhis
county and learn whether he Is enti-
tied TO a certificate under the recent
Supreme Court decision. The Su-
preme Court has decided that the
Governor has the right to remove and
appoint Registrars at his pleasure,
and a certificate issued by the new
Registrar of the county, is undoubted
evidence Of the holders right to vote.
Our friends in Pinch and Chelsea
who have missed their papers for the
past three days, viii bear with the
carrier, for he has been in great dis
tress. On Tuesday his mother died,
after several DAYS illness, and was
buried on Wednesday at ten O'Clock.
His father was sunStruCk while at
tending the funeral, and Yesterday
the poor fellow followed him to the
grave. 1t is but a short time since
this carrier, whose name Is Willard
Nirgeson, lost a brother by drowning.
There are now but two Of the family
left.
1t will be remembered that the
meeting held az Odd Fellows Hall to
consider the enterprise of the Missis-
sippi Valley Navigation Company adj
jOurned over to meet tonight at the
same place. The design of Capt. De
Haven has the endorsement Of the
principal scientific, business and prac-
teal men and builders of the country,
and is destined to prove an eminent
success. It will initiate a revolution
in the navigation of our waters, and
is a matter of first importance to our
city, as we'll as to New Orleans and
the cities above, and the Mississippi
Valley.
About two o'clock yesterday an
unknown man, who for a couple of
DAYS past has been seen around the
corner of Jefferson and Front streets,
in an intoxicated condition, went out
on the bluff I'm front of the CONNER
cial Hotel and laid down i'm the sun.
An hour or 50 afterWard some one |

were turned wrong side out, and had
been rihed. On examining closer he /
was found to be dead The Coroner
vas notified, and "a jury Of inquest
summoned, who returned a verdict of
death from intemperance and sun
stroke. The deceased looked like a
deckhand, about t~hirly-fve years old. |
