Colonel W. ". Lusk, the agent OF

fee and bottlery establishment to No.

come famous with those who are good
judges of malt liquors, and Colonel Lusk

our citizens.
We are in receipt of a letter from a
correspondent, signing himself as IDOL
phus Dawson, Agent of Wilkes & Hall,
Lynchburg, Virginia, who claims TO have
been very badly treated at Grand juno
ton, by parties who not only inveigled
his labOrers away from him, but robbed
him to boot. If his statements are true,
and we know nothing to the contrary, il
speaks very badly for the people of Grand
Junction tOallow such Outrages.
Another case of miscegenation came
up before the Recorder yesterday. This
is likely to become a troublesome ques-
ton to somebody soon. The laws OF Ten
nessee expressly forbid the intermarriage
of whites and blacks to the third genera
ton, and those OF some of the mOngrel
States around US allow it. There are now
in this city four or five couples in this fix,
and the police are after every one of them.
DO the company who ostensibly
furnish gas light for the city of Memphis
run their machine" by the almanac or
by the actual needs Of the public? During
the cloudy nights of last week the street
lamps were promptly eXtinguished at the
hour set by the almanac for the rising of
the moon, and parties whose business
called them out after that time were
allowed TO stumble about in the dark.
No other city in America would submit
to such an imposition.
A crippled man, whose name we
could not learn, placed his crutch on a
scrap of banana peeling, as he was going
down Union street, on Sunday, and il
slipping, he was thrown heavily forward,
striking on his hsce, which was considera-
bly, bruised. He was luckily not seriously
injured. The city will delay action in |
regard to the throwing of Feelings on the
sidewalk, until it will AVE a big bill of
damages to pay.

Persons who were on the streets a
few minutes amer 2 O'Clock yesterday
morning, were favored with a sight of the
phenomenon known as the lunar
rainbow. The moOn was partially vailed
by heecy clouds at the time, and two well
defined circles, displaying all the pris-
matte tints of the solar rainbow, were Wis
IDLE for some minutes. This is a rather
occurrence in this latitude, and
IS one of the most striking and sublime
Of meteorological phenomena.
