MEMPHIS TENNEssEE THURSDAY EVENING DECEMBER

Rapids. The other man, Day, is moi
fhmiliarly known here. ~
| some three or four weeks ago four per,
sons were hanged and shot, some Of
whom were said to be innocent. Since
then efforts have been made to bring
those who we're known to have partici
mated in that work TO justice. Several
arrest were made. Tho prisoners are
now at Eldorado. This seemed to ex
asperate the vigilance committee, as II
is called and on Thursday night last
four men we're hanged near Douglass,
who, it is said would have been the
most important witnesses against those
arrested. These men were Quimby, the
Morrises and another Quimby was ar
rested by them and proposed to give
bond. After procuring several names
TO this bond he was hanged. And now
every man who signed that bond is
threatened, and the officers, including
the sheriff, who went after troops TO quell
the disturbance, and the attorney who
defended the prisoners.
LATER.
The News, of the 9th, contains the fol-
lowing:
One hundred and seventy-fve or eighty
men are armed and drilling below Doug
lass, in Butler county. We hear they
have established a regular camp, and
have companies organized with captains,
etc. The avowed object of this organi-
zation is to clear the country OF horse.
thieves. 1t Is said to embrace many of
the best settlers of that part of the State.
The prisoners arrested for completely
in the first hanging scrape are in Jail at
Eldorado, and it is thought the vigilants
will attempt to take then ont. Eldorado
is under guard.
The Adjutant General Of the State
arrived here this evening, on his way to
Butler to investigate the matter.
Private advices say that the vigilants
have runners out as far north as Bazaar,
and that the life of Sheriff Thomas is
threatened. J. G, Lambdin and Jake
Carey are also threatened for signing
Quimby's bond.
The members of the vigilance commit
tee seem to be maddened with rage, and
there is no telling to what extent they
will carry matters.
STILL LATER.
A correspondent of the News at Edo
RADIO writes:
Just returned from the picket post. A
few shots from the enemy were fired upon
the pickets. The town turned out in
arms. Great excitement prevails.
1T is now 10 o'clock pm. Sunday
and our streets are crowded with armed
men. Great apprehensions are enter
tanned for the safety of the prisoners now
held here.
A large number of citizens from Doug
lass arrived to-day in search of more
healthy " cline.
The latest advices say that parties
below threaten the burning of Mr.. Carey
livery-stable and Lambdin & Sons store
and to take the life of j. G. Lambdin.
Our citizens are now organizing into
squads, and will no doubt give them q
warm reception.
1t is reported here tonight that d. L.
McCabe, former member Of the Legis-
lature, and an old man named William
Black have been killed.

THE OPERA In THE BOWERY.
A Faded Prima DOnna's Jealous
Rage Toward u Pretty SOubrettc.

Rage Toward u Pretty SOubrettc.
From the New York Herald. 9th.l
For some time past large and uil-
usually good operatic company has de-
| lighted the German residents of this city
with choice rendtions of their favorite
composers and librettists at the German
Stadt. theater in the Rowery. Among
the members of this troupe who wear
here reputation won in other days in
Europe is Madame Louisa Lichtmay,
the leading prima donna. Madame
| Lichtmay was warmly received on her
first appearance here, and at times her
rendition of difficult part has won from
the audience of her countrymen and
countrywomen such applause as almost
became an ovation. There is also on the
stage of the German Stadt theater a
very pretty young soubrette, named
Alma Krauser, whose modest air and
girlish beauty have made her a general
favorite, not only with those who CHANGED
to witness single representation, but
with habitues and critics. Some of the
latter, indeed, praised her warmly in the
notices of the various performances, and
it is said this praise became very unpal-
atable to the prima donna. Madame is
no longer very young nor very falr-at
least her beauty is not Of so excellent n
type as it may have been some twenty
wears ago. One cannot remain always
young and always beautiful, yet homely
and plain as this fact may appear, ac-
tresses are never willing TO recognize it.
They cling to the memory of their early
triumphs, they recite them to their man
ayers, their friends and themselves, and
they live so much in the rose col
ored past that they resent as an
insult everything that reminds them
of their present faded charms and
barren triumphs. Some two weeks ago
Madame Lichtmay grew very cold and
formal in her treatment Of the little
soubrette. One evening when it was
the duty Of Krauser to hand the prima
donna a letter, the latter snatched il
rudely from her, and the formality finally
grew to stiffness, and the coldness to
iciness. A few nights since the opera OF
Tannhauser was put upon the stage.
Madame Lichtmay, as the queen, was
seated upon the throne, and Miss
Krauser, as the page, sat on q step
of the dais at her feet. Suddenly the
prima donna, who wore pair of old-fash-
Toned, long-toed shoes, of the style Of the
sixteenth century, administered to the
person Of the pretty page a number Of
vigorous kicks. just then the soubrette
arose and-fell forward upon her face
on the floor Of the stage. 1t was her
place to sing at this point in the opera g
few stanzas. She began, her voice failed
her, and she hastily left the stage. The
prima donna descended from the throne
triumphant and sang during the re-
mainder of the evening with more than
her usual power and spirit, receiving
round after round of applause. It is
said the little soubrette is now, and has
ever since that night, been confined to
her bed. It is believed that the little
naked god had something to do with
stirring up the green-eyed monster.
However, the matter will be brought up
in. the courts, and some racy develop
ments may be expected. ht

Mr.. A. LLOYD, agent of the American
Free Trade League, is traversing the
country in the interest and under the pay
Of the New York importers, and doing
what he can to strengthen the Democratic
party in the coming Congressional cleo
tions, by assailing the Republican policy
OF protection TO American manufactures.
He will speak at the Court House this
evening, in his line Of business, the object
being to persuade the people of Wheel
ing that they ought 10 destroy their own
manufacturing interests and build up
those Of Great Britain, and compel our
working men to compete with Eng
lish paupers, by inaugurating Free
Trade. Mr.. LLOYD, Of course, will
profess to speak as non-partisan;
but our people very well understand that
the chief hope OF the importers is in the
Democratic party, and the chief hope OF
the Democratic party in the present can
vass for new House Of Representatives
is in dividing the Republicans on the ques'
ton Of protection or frco-trade. 1twould
be strange il the agent Of free-traders'
Or importers league found much cncour-
agement from any party in city like
this, whose prosperity and existence are
due to the policy he assails.
