CAREY'S VEGETABLE
HORSE & CATTLE POWDERS.

These Powders are the result Of fifteen years
study and observation by one Of the most EN- nent
Farmer and HOrsemen America has procured. He
observed how healthy. sleek, activ- and fat horses
and cattle would becorae wien allowed to run in
the pasture ana by close observation succeeded IN
finding out the vegetables which produced this
beneficial result. Thes vegetable are gathered at
the proper time, powdered and put mp in yellow
wrappers, each package containing half pound OF
more.
Ths Sihlculty which attends the use Of m my of
the "Sweet- scented Powders" of the day, is that
the perfumerv used almost invariably counteracts
the real medicine contained in them. We use no

GENERAL LEES FUNERAL.

A full report of the great events OF
Tuesday in our city appeared in yester-
days Issue. In recurring to the subject
Of General Lees funeral obsequies, our
purpose is merely to dwell briefly on the
unanimity Of sentiment which governed
our people. Memphis is decidedly a
cosmopolitan city. The population is
not composed alone of Southern people,
but of Northern and Western citizens,
Irish, German, French, Italian, Swiss,
Hebrews, from all lands and various
other nationalities. Yet, in the grand
procession of Tuesday, we saw nearly
all classes well represented, and none
were found to show disrepect or even IN
difference. This fact can be set down to
the credit ofhuman nature. General Lee
was looked upon as a noble type oil
man, worthy of any posthumous honors'
Hence none refused to take a part
in the proceedings of the day
None forebore TO do him reverence,
To those who followed General Lee,
and the Cause he led, this is source
of extreme satisfaction, but above and
beyond all personal feelings, it is .
poodly sight to behold the willing honors
paid General Lee as a good man whose
virtues were equal to his genius. Such
a demonstration speaks well for the JUS
tice that the human mind aceords to
man. To us General Lee was as a
father, and we reverence his name but
we must grant that some admit his great
ness who cannot feel exactly do as we do;
and if criticisms on his character which
seem harsh to our ears come from some
sections of the country, allowances must
be made for difference of ideas
and education. Nearly all the pa
pers of the country have had only
kind words for General Lee. In the
South we fully appreciate the moral as
well as military greatness of our hero;
but in the North he may not receive full
Justice at the hands of the present gen
Grafton. In Europe his character is bet
ter understood, because the press and
the statesmen of Europe are less tram
melled by the prejudices which envelop
the minds of people just emerging from
bitter sectional war. 1t is enough for !
us that we have obeyed the dictates OF
our better nature in paying the last sad
rites of respect to the name and character
of General Lee. In honoring his name
our people have honored themselves, and
faithfully performed a high duty, which
will ever afford satisfaction. Genral
Lees fame will take care Of itself Few
are found so base as to detract his good
name now, and in years to come his fg-
ure will stand out clear, bold and pure,
bright and unsullied on the most in
structive and charming pages of history.
His noble example as a conscientious,
heroic, selfsacri6cing man we can with
pride hold up to the youth of the land as
a model of manhood. which none OF
them can hope to excel, scarcely any to
equal.

A ONE DAYS MARRIAGE.
The Woman Declares She Was Drug

From the Courier-Journal. lsth.l

From the Courier-Journal, 19th.l
The particulars of a rather peculiar
case of misplaced confidence, or some
thing worse, were developed in one Of
the Justices Courts of this city on yes
terday. On Saturday last, woman
named Mary Kelly, who came here from
Cummingsville, Ohio, went to the house
Of one Mrs. Moran, on Front street, to
board She states that on Sunday she
deposited with Mrs. NJ. $25 in money
for safe keeping. On the same day she
was introduced to one Thomas Johnson,
and by some means was induced to con-
tract marriage with him.
The license was procured on Monday,
and they were Immediately married by
Squire Clements, in the presence Of Mr..
and Mrs. Moran. SO far everything was
lovely, and the goose was altitudinal, and,
swinging out of the Mayors office hand
in hand, johnson proposed to Mary that
they should go home and be happy, to
which generous and conflicting PROPOSE
ton Mary, in silyery accents, responded
We'll.
But, alasl the instability of human
happiness. Ntull -lOuI uOuic iaNCi
Mary appeared before the same judicial
functionary, and filed an affidavit aver
ring that she had been "duped, deceived,
and likewise taken IL" She states that
she was kept in the house Of Mrs. Moran
by force, and believes she was drugged
and in state Of stupor when her mar
riage took place. She further states
that the man johnson came to the house
Of Mrs. Moran on Sunday night with
woman, and stayed all night; that in the
morning Mrs. Moran called him up, aud
told the woman with whom he bed stayed
to go--that he had run arouhd the cor
ner. By some means of which she is
unconscious she was induced to marry
johnson; but after getting married,
thinking all was not right, she refused to
cohabit with him, fed from Mrs Moran's
and went to the station-house, where she
remained during the night Of Monday
and until Tuesday morning
That after she was married, Mrs. Mo-
ran tried to compel her TO 60 to a room
with johnson, by threatening and strik-
ing her but she refused, and did not

magistrate on a peace warrant, the hus-

case attracted considerable attention on
account Of Its novelty, and after a thor

Victor EmanueI's Letter TO the
Pope.
The following is the letter addressed
by King Victor Emanuel to the Pope,
and sent to his Holiness by Count Pom

greatness Of your soul would not fall be-
low the greatness Of events; but for me,

and as such guardian and surety by the
dispensatiOn Of Divine Providence, and
By the will Of the nation, Of the destinies
OF all Italians, feel the duty OF taking,
in the face Of Europe and Of Catholicity,
the responsibility Of maintaining order
in the peniusular, and the security OF
the Holy See.
Nov, Most Holy Father, the state Of
mind Of the population governed By your
Holiness, aud the presence among them
Of foreign troops coming from different
places with different intentions, are a
source Of agitation and Of evident peril

passions may lead 70 violence and 10

business men is involved in the repre-

now in the city for the purpose of infu-
eneing our merchants TO exhibit their

the hospital at Saarbrucken. A French
prisoner, former secretary, had to UNI
dergo an amputation of the right hand
He refused to be chloroformed, and suf-
fered the amputation to be performed in
a most stoical manner. When the oper-

his left hand, kissed it, and said: With
this hand | have supported my old
mother" Then he laid it down. on the
bed and turned over to the wall,
