Love AND 4 FAEM-Qnite number Of
old and amusing scenes frequently occur
with parties who visit The Probate Court
for the purpose OF securing the necessary
document to legaIze their marriage But
the other day young man, about twenty
once, accompanied by one Of the opposite
sex equally as young, asceudel the main
steps OF the Court House, aud then, on be-
ing directed to the Probate Court took up
the line of march for Its baIlowed precincts.
Reaching the door, he refused to enter
The rustic maiden, who was extremely
anxious to see the marriage programme car
red to a successful! issue, looked upon him
with pleading eyes, and then, taking him
by the hand in the most tender manner,

of backing out p tell in ducet tones upon

"Hadn't we better wait till the old man

years yet: there no die IN him. Come

KosKoo. This medicine is rapidly
gaining the confidence of the people, and
the numerous testimonials Of its virtues,
given by practitioners of medicines,
leave no doubt that it is safe and re-
liable remedy for MPURITY OF THE BLOOD,

properties, and give special recon-
mendation of Koskoo to the practitioners
of medicine. This is, we believe, the first
instance where such medicines have been
officially Endorsed by the faculty OF any
Of the medical colleges, and reflects great
credit upon the skill of DIR. Lawrence,
its compounder and also puts Koskoo

VARIETIES the management of
Mr.. j. M. Schooles the Varieties Thea
ter has become one of the most popular
places of amusement in Memphis. The
engagement of Charley White has been,
to use a common phrase, a big move, "
and has resulted in crowded houses
nightly; and we cannot refrain from ex-
pressing our admiration of the excellent
manner in which Prof. Snyder conducts
the orchestra. The Varieties is well
ventilated, and the utmost attention is
paid to the comfort and amusement Of
patrons. Regardless of expense, new
company has been engaged, and series
of unsurpassed entertainments may be
expected every night. Among the favor
ties are Kitty Davenport the fairy
sylph; Geo. G. Thompson, the popular
comedian; Messrs. Hurley and Mari,
the princes of song and dance; Mile
Aline LaFavre, the Partisan danseuse;
La Petite Maggie, the wonder of the age;
Signor Francis, the European juggler;
Julia Barton, the silver-toned cantatrice;
Emma Clair, the American danseuse;
Maggie Lorraine, the great jiggist; Lizzie
Whelan, the versatile actress; Amelia
Leslie, the Arkansas dancer; Nettie
Henderson, the sweet vocalist; Katie
Sharp, the prettiest dancing lady that
ever appeared on a stage; Rose st. Aud
ley, the sprightly :" old woman" Johnny
Manning, the versatile artist; Don An
gelo, the wonderful gymnast; and many
others whose names we forget. If such
an array of talent don't please every
body, we should like to know, these hot
days, what would.

FIGHTIsTs. -Caroline and JEFF Smith,

to his exploits in Virginia, had taken a
trip to Africa, of which there is no
record, had a little fsticuff affair last
evening. They pummeled each other
pretty well, and would have tattooed
each others faces in true African style
had the police not interfered. The Re
corder settled the affair this morning by
fining the pair five dollars each.

MOVES Cnrscrsr CRY Crncus.--Afte

MOVES CRESCENT CIrY CIRcus. After
a grand display of this magnificent
troupe through the city yesterday after
noon, the banners were hung upon the
outward walls of the stupendous payil-
ion, and the hour for opening found an
impatient crowd gathered at the en-
frances. With steady stream they
flowed rapidly in until the vast amphi-
theater showed brilliant array Of both
sexes, eagerly expectant of the coming
novelties and charming exercises. 1t
is we'll known that the breezes blow
eternally on the bluff, and the tents are
pitched in that airy locality, SO that the
crowded assemblage while enjoying the
entertainment experienced the sensation
that might have been produced by the
movements of thousands of invisible
wings. The tout ensemble is splendid, the
dresses and caparisons being new and
brilliant in the extreme. The perform
ances were all that had been promised,
and called forth plaudits from the hands
of the multitude. Where there was so
much to admire, it is difficult to discrimi-
nate, yet we must make particular men,
ton of few of the most prominent
features that deserve it. And first
let us speak of the MENACE of Mrs. c. w.
Noyes with her superb Arabian steed,
Djalma, worthy to bear the name of that
heroic prince created by the warm i'm
agination of Eugene Sue. She sat her
saddle with inimitable grace, and showed
off the fine points of Djalma with an ease
and aplomb that made manifest her
right to the title of mistress of the man
age act" Our people are familiar with
the peculiar beauty and elegance of Mil
lie Turnour in her daring trapeze act,
suspended in the air. She is nearer
womanhood than when first seen here,
but is still more beautiful and agile and
attractive in her surprising feats. Master
Wooda Cook merits mention for the ex-
cellence of his riding and the thrilling
effect of his somersaults. Nor should
the prince of acrobats, Charles Mccarthy,
be passed by slovenly, or Fred Barclay,
Big Injun me, Captain John, ugh"
fail to receive the notice he deserves. 1t
is the untiring effort of Mr. Noyes, the
manager of this grand combination, to
equal if not surpass the greatest arenic
attractions, and his unvarying success
makes manifest that he has not widely
missed his mark. Since leaving Texas
he has lost twenty-eight superb draft
horses, involving many thousand dollars,
but the success of his great arenic exhi-
bition is speedily closing the gap. Per-
formances this afternoon and evening.

County and city scrips are quiet and inactive.
Tennessee money is unstable at over 20.
There is nothing doing in Government securi-

SUGGESTION. In an elaborate article
on Mrs. Myra Gaines and connections,
the Appeal the other day set down the
nativity of Daniel Clark, her father, in
1892, at which time he was successful
man of business. To have been born in
that year, Clark would have been at this
time but about seventy-eight years old,
when in fact his age would have ex-
ceeded hundred Our contemporary
should be particular about dates, as a
wrong collocation of figures might con-
vert history into romance.
