Memphis. Helena and Friar's Point

The period for which | obtained the
steamer Des Are to supply the place of
the General Anderson in the Memphis
and Friar's Point trade having expired
on the 18th instant, and the owners be-
ing compelled to send her to White
river | have been necessitated to sus-
pend my trips in the trade for few
days--until can complete my new
boat, there being no other to be had in
the meantime suitable. The Phil Allin
is being rapidly completed, and will take
my regular days Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays) and continue in the trade
during the coming season. j thank the
public for their patronage, and hope to
serve them better in the future.

A negress residing in Huntsville, Ran

used without a chimney, about the room,
when the blaze came in contact with the
oil, the whole mass getting into blaze,
which scared the woman TO such an ex-
tent that she dropped the light on little
negro in cradle or bed, resulting in the
burning of the child to death.

one thing which the State does not expect
Of them 1t does not contemplate that
they will turn their report into n puff
for railroad officials. like the indiscrimin-
ate pulling and snobbery Of the present
report. For instance, the report of the
Switchem and Killem Il. r. closes like
this : 1.-The public will be gratifcd to
know that the able Presidency Of the road
is still retained by the Hon. Bobbs, while
Dobbs, esq. is Supt., and Is giving to the
road his whole time and attention. The
Hon. Bobbs, we hope. will soon give his
entire attention to the road. that its enter
prising stockholders may have the advan-
tage of his eminent ability" How do
Mcssrs. Wildes. Blake and Corser know
that 'thc people will be much gratiiicd to
learn" about Bobbs and Dobbs I? The
presumption is that they don't care n far
thing about these worthless. Let US have
better, and consequently different. reports
from this, gentlemen, or no reports Mt all |;

fects in bad management, and that they

Of the causes of the rebellion By historians
now living. whom they know and In
whom they can trust; they have seen and
felt the character Of the rebellion itself ;
its immediate results are before them ;
they well know that the honor and life Of
the nation was involved in the conflict OF
arms. and but little reflection makes 1t
quite rs certain that its continuance and
prosperity lies in the proper use Of the
fruits of the controversy and the proper
settlement of the questions growing out
of it. Therefore no consideration Of for
n.cr affiliations or party name should in
fluenco their course in the future line of
duty.
