A suit between the Northwestern
Union Packet Company and fireman
named Eli Aaron was tried at Dubuque
on Thursday. Aaron was employed upon
the steamer Alexander Mitchell, and,
being paid off the other day, the engineer
wished to deduct the sum of three dollars
and seventy-five cents for the loss Of
some iron fire CRATES, which we're burned
out on Aarons watch, alleging that the
matter transpired through carelessness.
Aaron did not deny this, but swore
-roundly that he had never made any
contract to settle for any such mishaps,
and refused to submit to the deduction.
Hence the suit.

below, the Louisville canal is to be
opened as sooh as the present low water

written in reply to an inquiry from one
of the editors of the Cincinnati Times;
LOUISVILLE. KY. September %. 1870.
F. II. Rollins, ESQ.,, Cincinnati;
DEAR Sir: In reply to yours of yester-
day, have to say that the canal will be
opened as soon as the present low water
season is at an end, whether the work of
enlargement is completed or not.
If when this time arrives a few days
work only are necessary to complete the
work, will request the Directors of the
canal to pass everything through at
night, and keep the canal closed during
the day.
To enable them to do this, have con-
tracted for the construction of the guard
gates at the head of the canal, and they
are now in course of construction.
Yours, etc., G.. WEIrzEL,
Major of Engineers.

involved and the millions annually lost
to Memphis, the importance of asking
from the Mayor and Board of Aldermen
a grant of right of way for a North and
South railway connection through the
city, so that the travel be at once turned
into its legitimate channel.
The same committee was appointed to

President Nelson, before retiring from
the position which he has always filed
so gracefully and so well, made an elo-
quent comprehensive, sound-sense
speech in regard to the commercial inte-
rests Of Memphis, her growing impor-
lance, and present as well as prospective
greatness. The address was full of prae-
teal ideas and suggestions, worthy to be
cherished and acted upon by the bust
ness community. But for its length, we
would reproduce the address.
Col. Pinson, on approaching the Pres
idents seat, delivered a graceful and APP
propriate address Of considerable length,
which, for the lack Of space, we must

Col. Sam. Tate has been in Memphis a

Col. W. w. Gates, of the jackson
Wing and Tribune, is in the city.
Colonel Pinson, the new President OF
the Chamber Of Commerce, was elected

The Stonewall jackson concert last
Friday night netted $40. The expenses

are gratifying.
The long threatened rain came this
morning about the breakfast time Of a
business man, and fell heavy and fast
for an hour or two. This is, perhaps,
good for the city in sanitary point OF
view, but not encouraging to cotton men.

made this afternoon.
Billy Emerson and his famous min

of the best in the country. A rare treat
is offered for two nights only and we

each occasion.

HORRIBLE DEATH.
DR.. JOurdan Killed by Falling from
the Old POstOnice Building.

the Old PostOnee Buflufng.
This is the fourth fatal accident that
has occurred at the old postofice build
ing within two years. There is some
thing wrong in the construction of the
house or In the influences which pervade
its atmosphere.
Last night, about IL o'clock, another
of those horrible accidents occurred, for
which the old postofice building, situa-
ted on the northeast corner of Third and
Jefferson streets, has become noted. In
one of the rooms of the second story
fronting Jefferson street, is the office of
the Memphis Correspondent, German
daily paper DIR. Jourdan is its editor,
and while sitting at the window it is sup
posed he must have lost his balance, as
he fell over on the iron grateway on JEFF
ferson street, and was killed instantly.
Striking the iron bars on the right side
of the head, it was mashed in, causing
death instantly. Laying there his body
was discovered In his right hand he
had white ENTHUSIASTICALLY grasped.
Blood oozed from his right ear and nose,
and across his forehead were the marks
of the grating. He apparently could
not have moved after he fell. A jury of
inquest was summoned and verdict
rendered Of accidental death.
DR.. Jourdan came to this city from
Nashville, where he had been connected
with German paper-the Democrat
about four months ago. He was ripe
scholar, thorough gentleman, whose
death will be deeply regretted. Dr.
Jourdan was Prussian by birth and
about fifty years old.

SURPRIsISG.-Ye it is not surprising
to those who have known A. Raggio, at
No. 10 Jefferson street, for any length
of time, to see him announce TO the pub
lie generally, that, at very considerable
expense, he has fitted anew his old oyster
saloon, adding to it many modern i'm
provements; and has also enlarged his
bar and identified it to that extent that
it now presents an appearance that must
please all that call. The best of liquors,
cigars, etc, can always be obtained here,
and the finest Norfolk oysters received
every day and furnished in any style
either stewed, by cans or from the shell.
Mr.. Raggio desires all to call and see if
he has not fitted up the completest or
most perfect oyster and bar SALOON in
the city. 23t

FAST LIVING AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.
When fast life has undermined the
strength, destroyed the appetite, i'm
paired the digestion, and stolen the hue
of health from the cheek-when the
hand trembles, the spirits droop, and the
whole physical and mental organization
languishes, is it possible to repair the
evil and restore tbe dilapidated system to
full health and vigor2 We answer that
it is. Hundreds of cases have been
cited, thousands might be cited, in which
this regeneration has been accomplished
by the regular and persistent use of
Plantation Btters Abstinence from
the indulgences which have wrought the
mischief is, of course, one of the means
of restoration. But it is not sufficient
alone. The consequences remain after
the cause has been abandoned. A
wholesome and genial tonic is absolutely
necessary to rouse the corporal and
mental energies from their state of col
lapse. This good work it is the mission
of the Plantation Btters to perform.
But no other stimuiant must be taken.
