THE FALL TRADE.-All our business

it is nearly time they were letting their
friends in the country know what prepa-
rations they have made to receive and
dispose of the new crop, as well as the

furnishing supplies for families and plan
tatons. In this connection we take
leave to state to our merchants generally

auainted with all branches of the craft,

credit to Memphis; besides, they are old
residents here, and deserve the patron

DANGEROUS WEAPoNs.-A big, ugly
negro, named Anderson Starke, was ar
rested yesterday with lump of lead,
weighing about pound, cast into the
shape ofan egg and attached to leather
strap, in his possession. We have seldom
seen weapon calculated to hit man a
heavier blow about the head. Starke
was fined only $40, but the ugly weapon
was kept in the stationhouse. Another
negro, named Pleasant Davis, in com
pany with Starke, was arrested for carry
ing six-shooser concealed. He was
fined the trifling sum of s.. There is
no doubt about it but these fellows meant
to rob or murder perhaps both-and we
are astonished they were not, under the
late law, brought before a higher court
than the Recorders.

Pleasant AND HEALTHY. = This is
about as pleasant and as healthy sum
mer as we have for long time expert
enced in Memphis. Although the Their
mometer occasionally runs up TO ninety,
still, in consequence Of a cool breeze
always stirring, the heat is not very OPP
pressive While men and women are
falling on sidewalks by the hundred in
Eastern cities from sunstroke, here no
one, save a few who have exposed them
selves too much in the afternoon on the
levee, have suffered from coup de tesoteH.
A light drink of good brandy this weather
is of more value than any other beverage.
Use tea and toast for breakfast, sand
wich ofham and mustard and ligh. bread,
with brandy toddy, for dinner, wear a
felt hat lined on the inside with silk, and
you may defy sunstroke, cholera or yell
low jack. Above all, let no one, after a
little warm exercise, use ice water: it
checks the quick circulation of the blood,
and may cause death in ten minutes.
This is the wholesomest season of the
year in this region; and if people are
only little careful they may enjoy it
hugely.

A FESTIVE WEDDINo.-On Wednesday

A FESTIVE WEDDNG.--0n Wednesday
last, the 18th inst, at the residence ofthe
brides father, Col. I. W. White, at Her
nando, Miss, j. M. Harrington, Esq, of
this city, was united in the holy bonds Of
wedlock to Miss Mildred c. White, Of
fernando. Rev. S. H. Ford, of this
city, solemnized the nuptials in the most
fehcitous and eloquent manner. A spe-
cial train was placed on the Mississippi
and Tennessee road for the occasion, and
the largest preparations were perfected
for splendid party. Phe banquet was
most recherche, the table at the bride's
suggestion having been set in the form Of
an + and laden with Injuries and delica-
cies. The popping of corks was like a
fen de .joie, and the health and prosperity
Of the happy pair was drank in many
a generous libation. The return cars
were elegantly decorated with flowers
and evergreens, and were filled with a
most Joyous throng who accompanied
their young friends on the first stage Of
the voyage of life--from fernando to
Memphis--on their way to St, Paul and
other Northern points Of interest, and
then q bridal tour Of the East.

SEA Moss FARINE is creating great
sensation in the food market, and its
uses, as set forth by the reports of seien-
tifc experts, are many and various. In
the first place, when employed in the
preparation of puddings, custaids, blanc
mango, creams, gruels, and scores of
other delcacies for the family table or
the sick room, il adds largely 10 the
quantity of nutriment derivable from
the other materials; and in the second
place renders the dish, whatever it may
be, far more digestibie and agreeable to
the taste than it would have been with
out this cheap and pure ingredient
Such is the testimony of large number
of the most prominent hotel-keepers in
New York and other cities. 1t is being
used largely in all the hospitals, and
will prove lasting blessing to the poor.

KosEoo. 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 ii is a safe and re-
liable remedy for IMpuRITY OF THE BLOOD,
that speaks in hig terms of its curative
properties, and give a special recon-
mendaton of Koskoo to the practitioners
of medicine. This is, we believe, the first
instance where such medicin rs have been
officially Endorsed by the faculty OF any
of the medical colleges, and reflects great
credit upon the skill of DR.. Lawrence,
its compounder, and also puts Koskoo =

travelling stock in the country, as well as
some of the most elegant buggies this
