Reasons why ~EmigraHts should Remain
With Us.


For several months past there has been
a steady stream of emigration passing
through this city westward - theiE
destination being mainly Western Arkan-
sas and Northern Texas. We propose %
show, by a few figures, that these people,
IL they we're property posted, would 90 no
further than West Tennessee, and that
they can find all hat they can possibly
hope to attain in the savage regions oil
the "far west,' here on the banks of the
great river, and In the center of civiliza-
ton.
A friend recently returned from Cali
Iornia remarked to US that when the train
rolled out of the Ohio depot he left be-
hind him the best country be saw during
his travels! This certainly was an as
founding assertion and one we were slow
20 believe without investigation
1t so happens, however, that we have
before US a copy of the report OF the De-
partment of Agriculture for 1865, in which
some remarkable statistics occur, tO-wit
the crops of 1868. A table is produced,
Z" showing the amount, in bushels, ETC., o.
each principal crop of the several States
named, the yield per acre, ETC." The
I" principal crops" are Indian corn
wheat, rye, oats, barley, buckwheat, pO-
tatoes, tobacco and hay. Cotton, it will
be observed, is excluded. We give the
names OF the several States and the value
Of the above crops, as taken from The

AMUSEMENTS.

CoNFFpERATE PICNIC.-The Confeder-
ate picnic was one grand success, and
may Justly be considered as a triumph.
Owing to the intense heat of the weather,
and to the fact that there were no prelim-
mary exercises (such as speeeh-making,
etc. the crowd, until after two or three
O'Clock. was rather slim, but from that
time until ten O'Clock at night there was
one continued stream of the elite, beauty
and fashion of our city. We have rarely
or never seen a more beautiful assem-
blage of young ladies' than were on the
grounds, and never have We looked upon
a more brilliant spectacle han that pre-
sented by the dancers at half-past nine
O'Clock last night. We hope that the
Confederate Relief Association may re-
peat the festival at the earliest opPor-
tunity.
MEMPHIS THEATER. The Carnival
minstrels concluded their engagement
last night with q carnival Of fun and

A COMMUNICATION, signed "Lachry-

harmlessly as a joke, and which the
writer of this knows was written BY one
not an enemy of any person named l the
communication As SUCH it was nproV0d

entire responsibility IN the premises. The
fact of Col. DGpre's name appearing in
the list should be satisfactory, as indleat-

AS we nave observed, TIE cOJJOu CEOp
is not included in the above the
value of which crop in our State is
not less than twenty-five million dol
lars. Hence it will appear hat we should
stand only below New York, Pennsyl-
yania. Illinois, Indiana and Ohio! These
are figures which cannot be controverted.
Tennessee is the sixth agricultural State
of the Unionf
Compare California with Tennessee
upon the basis of products, and see if our
friend was not right. Dur products out
strip those of the Golden State by at least
thfrty-thres millions; and allow them the
value of their gold crop at twenty mill
lions. and we still tower far over the
much Wanted Pacific country. Ken
lucky, with her blue grass, must yield US
the palm by thirty millions.
Another not embarrassing point is that
we produce such a vast amount of those
products which sustain life, and yet have
our great staple for export. We venture
the assertion that Tennessee sells to PEG
Die outside her own border more dollars
worth of the earth's products than any
other State in the Union! That is to say,
deduct the value of b amount necessary
to support the population Of New York
from The value of her product, and do the
same by Tennessee, and our balance o.
net proft WiU be greater than hers. There
fore we are the first agricultural State Of
the Union.
There are not a few who have heard and
read the Observation-Disclosures ar
gument about the hay, beans and potatoes
Of the North as being of more value thar
our cotton crop. In the aggregate value
of products this may be so, but in order
to make a correct argument two Other
things should be taken in consideration
first, they eat their hay and potatoes, and
we in Tennessee make a suficiency Of the
same for our own consumption, besides
our cotton for export.
another thing deserves attention, and
this is the great wheat crop of the greGI
West. A very excellent thing is wheat
to have, but a very impoverishing thing
10 produce. Go where you will among
the farmers of the West, and ask then
concerning their business, and you will
be assured, "we make nothing, we WORK
for the cities" And why& A bushel o
wheat, which weighs sixty pounds, is
worth no more Than fvepounds of cottOn
transportation and 81 srage eat the far
mer upl
But there is no use multiplying words
We have given the figures (which canno
lie) to prove that our own State OF Ten
uessee is the true Ell DORADO.
Let California boast of her big trees
her gold p~lacers, her scenery, ETC.; lei
Texas hold out inviting statistics OF crops
with seven times the area of TENNESSEE
let her pirate of her destiny asthe sta
of Empire" we maintain that Tennessee
is far ahead Of them all.
We therefore urge upon emigrants u
look before they leap %(across the river
and remain with US.

IT will be seen by reference to our suc-
ton columns that Mrs. General Preston
and f. w. Smith, Esq, will soon sell by
subdivision at public sale, through Messrs,
Royster, TrezeVant Il Co., -auctioHeers,
that magnificent residence property which
everybody who knows it sdmires so
much, at the intersection of Vance snd
Orleans streets, extending through ia
Linden street, and we presume that those
who wish to have an interest in the real
estate of Memphis will not deem it neces-
sarv to wait for more desirable and at
tractive property, or for better terms than
this sale will afford them.

love Ould Erin, and Euglishmen so ten
derby love the fOggy memories that hang

and many like them, with fearful eyes
are wont to contemplate the misty veil
with which the sun hides his face when
he beholds for the last time in each day
the foIlies and fantastic tricks ever per
petrated in this marvellous city. Patriot
ism is qusfed by the German in his lager:
by the Emeralder, in whisky; by the
Englishman, in 'alf-and-aIf; BY the
American, q compound of all natiOnali-
ties. in ali COMPOUNDED and cOnfOuuded
drinks. Drinking IS of the essence OF pat
riotism. All nature demonstrates the fact.
Behold, when mother earth 5 dry,
She drinks tbs drOppings of the sky,
And then the deWy cordial gives
To every thirsty plant that lives.
The moon, too, quAns her paly stream
Of lustre from the solar beam.
The vapors which, at evening weep,
Are beverage to the mighty deep.
Away with all your sober thinking,
II NatHre's holy law be drinking,
III make the law of nNure mine,
And pledge tbs universe in wine.
Thus sans AnacreOn two thousand
years ago, and the law of nature Is the
law of nations. Preach against il, moral

COILS. 2s7 VAIN sTREEr.

Was in its embryo. To-day it would not
exchange its popularity with hat of any
house in the great Southern country.
That this amount of business esteem on
the part of its patrons is owing to a no
less well defined han closely pursued
business view of the obligations pending
between customer and merchant is
strongly evinced by the rapid increase of
the house in popularity and favor. No
sooner now do strangers arrive in the
city than they hear of COILS DRY
GOODS HOUSE as the place in which to
purchase their Dress Goods, White Goods,
Notions, GEoVes, Corsets, Hosiery, Fans,
ParasoIs, HGndkerehiefs, etc, with adj
vantage, confidence and satisfaction.
They can be always sure to have nice,
fresh goods presented for their inspection,
and there is no instance Of any house I'M
derselling them.
Indeed, to tell a Memphis lady that she
could buy goods cheaper elsewhere than
she could at Coils would as likely re-
ceive credenee as if one said:
