The Meeting mt Masonic Hal.

The speaking of Rev. Mr. Osborne, at
Masonic Hall, last night was not largely
attended, though the audience was q very
intelligent one, and all were deeply enter
tanned and instructed. The wet, rainy
night kept the crowd away which would
otherwise have been present. Col. Colyar
opened the meeting by expressing its OBJ
jects, and in few brief remarks earnestly
and forcibly and practically appealed to
those present to give their influence and
aid to the establishment of the Inebriate S
Home. He said that the subject, with all
the lights thrown around it, would be pro-
sented to every town and village, and
through the valleys and mountains of Ten
nessee. He desired the ladies, the bankers,
the professional men, the merchants, and
all classes, to take hold of it with a will.
The speaker Of the evening, Mr.. Osborne,
followed in one of the most eloquent and
stirring and effective addresses We ever
heard His address abounded in thrilling
metaphor and instructive incident. He
was listened to With marked and profound
attention throughout. The meeting
though slirnly attended, we are sure, was
not without its good results. Mr.. Osborne
will address the people again tonight at
the Mulberry street Church, and we assure
our friends that they will miss rare
intellectual treat as well as an occasion OF
doing good by falling to be present.

The Umpire also put in an appearance
from above with cargo consisting of pa
hogsheads Of tobacco, and lot of wheat
and corn. The Umpire cleared again in
the afternoon for Cairo.
The Mallie Ragon was still expected last
night. She is coming, sure. Her delay
is probably caused by fcgs.
The Mississippi is falling rapidly at St.
Louis and above, but big rise, which
may possibly reach there in greatly di-
minished volume, is now passing Omaha,
on the Missouri river. Five feet of snow
fell in the mountains about the first Of this
month. and heavy rains have fallen all over
Nebraska
There has been several feet rise in the
Arkansas river in the last few days, and it
is still rising. This viii enable all the
boats that have been laying up in the Ar
kansas to proceed up the river and get
clear of their trips.
The Louisville Commercial of yesterday
says:
The Mollie Gratz left for Nashville last
evening with about one hundred tons of
freight and orders for hay, cement and corn
below sufficient to fill her out. This is the
first boat we have undertaken to load for
Cumberland river this season, and it is
pretty well over, though it shows what
could have been done had Louisville put
two boats in there at the commencement
Of the season.

officers, which are to consist Of a Chair

A Practical Plan for specie Re-
sumption.

The New York Economist, of the "a inst,
says:
1t is not out of place here to remark that
the attention of the Secretary of the Treas
ury would be well employed if turned to
the gold premium, and instead of selling
the gold, which is now proposed, and Civ
ing the spectators the full benefit of all
the material of the country (since it takes
but small amount to buy up the street.,
if the government would become its own
broker and stop the speculation by selling
to the merchants only, at lower rate
than the street generally asked, or giving
notice that during certain months such
would be the price for gold for duties, and
securing itself against speculation by hav-
ing the customhouse authorities fill out the
drafts on the sub treasury. Such policy
would go far toward steadying the premium
and reducing it by degrees that would
make it less Objectionable to our merchants
and guard them against loss by the fuctu-
ating rates that are likely to ensue from
the barter which is now advertised to take
place.

cotton in Liverpool is COG, 900 bales, against
1872, 600 bales last year. The amount of
American cotton ahoat for Great Britain is
10000 bales, against 10000 bales last
year. The amount of Indian cotton afloat
for Europe is 2i9, $50 bales, against 521,
OG6 bales last year. The market at this
point has been dull and dropping du-ing
the week: This state of affairs was due to
increased shipments from India and the
failure of some parties here to meet their
contracts for future delivery. The crop
accounts from the South are generally
favorable, although from some sections we
have complaints Of cold and dry weather.

AppropriatIon for Police Uniforms

The Common Council did not, for the
want of time, get through its business
yesterday afternoon, and therefore adjourn
ed until s o'clock this evening. Among
the measures still demanding their atten-
ton is that already favorably passed upon
by the Board of Aldermen, donating TO the
Police Department the price of their sum-
mer uniforms. The present police have
not been long enough in service to have
earned a great deal, and as many of them
are men Of families, the appropriation
mentioned would be timely and appropri-
ate. A faithful and efficient body Of men,
doing the duty for which hitherto nearly
twice their numbers were required, it
seems that the city can very well afford 20
make the donation contemplated by this
measure. The laborer is always worthy
of his hire, and when he does extra work
he should, in some form, receive extra

vile Juvenile:
Of the Juvenile Turner'S, Master Fabel,
of Nashville, was decidedly the best, and
so the judges seemed to think, as we are
told that he received the highest numbers
in every feat performed. He is quite
young, and very small, and one of the
livelest little fellows anywhere. We were
especially impressed with his style Of ap-
plauding, when others clapped their hands
in appreciation, he would turn to the boy
nearest him and slap his face in an audible
manner until it ceased. He seemed to
like the fun.

CITY NOTICES.
Reaper Trial.

AT the trial of reapers on the farm Of
Gen. w. G.. Harding on Tuesday last the
Woods world-renowned self raking reaper
was the decided attraction of the day with
its ann of W, cd, elbow of iron and fingers
of steel. delivering the grain In a perfect
bundle like thing of life, to the surprise
of every one who had never seen the same
before. The reputation of this celebrated
reaper needs but few comments. 1t is ac-
knowledged to be superior to all others in
use. The praise which the Woods reaper
received at the trial will, without doubt
place it first in the list. One of the COM
mittee purchased the reaper on the ground.
A few years ago Mr.. Wood was working
at his trade "a blacksmith in the city of
Nashville, and is now the greatest manu-.
tacturer of reapers and mowers in the
world, employing over one thousand men
manufacturing these justly celebrated ma
chimes, turning out a complete machine
every four minutes. The general agent,
Mr.. Henry L. Whitman, will be happy to
give all information at j. W. Horizons, 80
Broad street, where a complete stock of
duplicates are always on hand. Mr.. Whit
man is the general Southern agent for
Pitts threshing machines.
At the trial in Shelbyville, Tenn, the
9TH inst, the Clipper challenged all the
machines represented at that place to a
trial of mowers, and the leading machines
were in the contest. Tbs Walter A. Woods
mower received the first prize over all.
