Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-07-31

Memphis, as a manufacturing point, is
attracting much attention among capital
lists elsewhere. Messrs. Muldoon, Bull
lett q Co., Of Louisville, are about to
establish a braneh of their business here.
Messrs. John Walton and Chas. Bullet
are now in our city, and have secured the
large cotton shed on Washington street,
formerly occupied by Mr.. VIM. NJ. Far
ringtOn, where they will erect large
marble and stone works. They are now
trying 10 secure some central position, to
use as a store and showroom. Monuments
OF all kinds-stone work and terra Gotta
wOrk-will be carried on by his firm
more extensively than eve before known
in the South. There is also in the city a
Mr.. Johnson, of Cincinnati, who carries
on a large foundry in that city. He is
about to become a resident OF Memphis,
and will, in connection with a few OF "a
public-spirited men, erect a stove foundry
on Adams street, near the bayou. Nj.
johnson informs us that he can buy pig
iron here five dollars per ton cheaper than
in Cincinnati, and that he can manufae-
ture stoves at this point cheaper they
can possibly be made at any point along
the Ohio, not excepting Pittsburg. These
two institutions will add at least 400 or
SEQ men, solid mechanics, TO our popula-
ton. To all such enter prises we say,
God speed.
FINANCIAL CONDITION OF SOUTH CARO-
LIMA
A controversy having arisen concern
ing the financial condition Of South Caro-
lima, the Treasurer of that State State has
published a circular, in which he asserts
that there are no "'bonds of the State past
due, consequently there are non to be
~dishonored, and there has been no time
since July, 1865, when there have not been
funds both in the treasury at Columbia,
and to the-credit of the State at the fnan-
cisl agency in New York, and in no sin
gle instance has payment either of current
expenses Of the State, or Of the debt,

Taking 4 Drink COnRdentially.

A traveller in Nevada tells a story of o
family which consisted OF the husband,
his wife and two grown sons. The old la
dy was the Gully one of the family who did
not take Il Little Of the so be joyful"
Sitting by the fire Il few minutes, the old
man tipped u wink and the visitor follow
ed him ont. Stopping bya shed he pulled
out Il bottle, saying: 81 have to keep this
hid, Tor the boys might get to drinking,
and the old woman would raise the devil"
They took drink and returned to the
Preside. Soon Tom, the eldest son, asked
the visitor TO see the horses, aud taking
him behind tho barn pulled out a flask
saying 81 have to keep this hid, for the
old man will get drunk, and then the dew
il is to pay,' and they both took q drink
and returned. Soon Bob stepped on the
visitors toe ana walked off, the visitor fol-
lowing. As they reached the pig-pen, Bob
drew out a good-si2cd bottle, remarking
'lou know the old man and Tom will get
drunk, aud ] have to hide this"
Cur friend concluded that he could not
stand it to drink couidentially against the
whole family, and started back to Gold
Hill.

4 Southern correspondent, report
ing tn" loss Of a horse, supposed to result
from eating mu,ty oats, says: II am
certain more horses die in the South
from eating damaged oats than from all
other causes. As the oats are cut rather
green and often with many green weeds
among them, IT, is very difficult to keep
them from mouiding more OF less in the
centre. Many animals die from this
cause which arc supposed to have had
blind steggory, as in the case OF mine.
Another horse recently died near me in
the same way, after being fed on oats
mostly sound but some of the bundles
musty in the middle

SiRs-ln 1852 | purchased one Of yorI ; &C.
tave Melod,ons, and after using it a short lime in
the United States, took it with US on onr return 4,
Bangkok, Siam. The instrument was used dur
ing the voyage out and kept in almost daily SER
vice in siam about fourteen years. We used i,
in public and social worship in both the native
and English services, singing schools and social
gatherings. 1t has been Of great service in
teaching music to the natives and enabling them
to sing correctly, We have taken il on excur-
sions aud travels in the country, and it has sery.
ed to cheer our weary spirits and beguile many
a tedious hour. The instrument is still good,
and on our return again, will yet serve US or
others for many years. 1t gives me much pleas.
ure to recommend your instrument at home and
abroad.
There were several MelOieons ofo,her makers
brought into Siam while We we're there, but none
equalled yours in purity and volume Of tone, or
stood the climate 50 well and kept in such perfect
tune. The climate Of India is very trying to Or
gans and Melodeons on account Of the severity
Of the hot and rainy seasons. Your instruments
have stood the best of any, and if they will stand
the climate OF India, all lovers Of music should
give them the preference every where.
