Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-06-23

pockets at the cost of the people, the un.
mixed villains lift up their hands and roll
back their eyes in holy horror, when told
that fraudulently issued bonds shall never
be paid.
-Senorita Josefena FilomeBa, who
wodld play just as we'll with a cOmpre-
hensible name, is to appear at our The.
ater. She is a wonderful artistic. We have
been reading for some time past of hel
marvellous skill as a performer on the
violin. She is said to outrival Ole Bull
N hardly less wonderful is her excel.
lence as a pianist. Her assistants are
masters of the musical art, and those who
are transported to elysian fields by the
concord of sweet sounds, will not fail tC
attend at the New Memphis Theater.
Colonel J.. G. Lopez, general fraigh;
agent Of the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad, says that we are mistaken in
saying that the same facts pertain 70 the
Memphis and Charleston and Memphis
n Louisville roads in reference 70
charges on through freights. Referring
to an extract from the APPEAL, Colonel
Lopez says: 1 above, speaking of dis
elimination of the Memphis and Louis
vile road against Memphis. by shipping
a bale of cotton from Brownsville To
Louisville, 327 miles, at nearly the same
price as it costs to ship the same to Mem
phis, only fifty miles, the APPEAL says:
The same facts pertain to the Memphis
and Charleston Railroad Such, most
emphatieally, is not the case. It costs
exactly the same to ship a bale of cotton
going to Eastern cities, $50 miles west Of
Chattanooga, to Chattanooga, as it does
to ship a bale of cotton $50 miles east OF
Memphis into Memphis, and the same
holds good for all distance. The discrim-
ination from all points on the Memphis
n Charleston Railroad being in favor
of Memphis, as nc Eastern lines control
the Memphis and Charleston Railroad
In simple Justice 20 the Memphis and
Charleston Railroad, please correct the
error made in your paper"
The brick building to be erected by
the Wood and Willow Ware Manufaetur-
ing Company, on Georgia street, will be
lOOx60 feet, two stories and a basement.
The lot occupied has 43S feet on Georgia,
near Main street. The company will
want materials in vast quantities for the
manufacture of buckets, barrels, hubs,
spokes, wagons, and farming and house
hold implements. The machinery for the
establishment will be bought, and the
contract for the construction of build
ings, executed at once. Yesterday and
Saturday the capital stock of the COM
pany was increased to $685. 900, to be aug
mented to $4,000. The Wood and Will
low Ware Company thus becomes the
precursor of Memphis manufacturing es-
adjustments, to be maintained and made
successful, not only because of the mild
ness of our climate, by the abundance OF
wood, but because multiplied railroads
will reduce the cost of living, and thus OF
labor, to a minimum, and the Sc Ma road
will draw hither from the bill edes OF
Alabama the cheapest tuel used by ny
city.
There has been much said and writ
ten of late about Memphis Water Works,
and the city has already invested in the
scheme about $4,000. The Macon ga.
Journal has been contemplating the
works in Augusta, and tells us that they
are so arranged that a stream is made TO
run through every sewer in the city each
morning, thus keeping them clean and
floating of everything that can prove1n-
furious to health or offensive to the Olfac-
tories. The greater part of the water,
however, is brought from the canal from
another reservoir and is used for all or
binary purposes. This reservoir is nine
ty feet above the city, and furnishes a
sufficient pressure to render engines al
most unnecessary in cases of fire. The
streets are kept clear Of dust with the
greatest ease and at trifing expense. A
taxi is levied on each hydrant, which is
ch~eerfully paid, as they bring the water
into every citizens yard and save much
trouble and annoyance. The citizens of
Augusta would not for many hundred
thousand dollars be without their water
works. A stream of cool water dashing
down the cutters on either side of the
dirty streets of Memphis would cool the
heated air, n then the chiefest Of bless
ings would be that cleanliness, which
would distinguish every class OF popula-
ton.
Some one has said that there are thou
sands of busy people who die every year
for want of sleep. Sleeplessness becomes
a disease, and is the precursor of insanity.
We speak of sleep as the image of death,
and our waking hours as the image of
life. Sleep is not like death; for it is the
period in which b waste of the system
ceases, or is reduced to its minimum.
Sleep repairs the waste which waking
hours have made. 1t rebuilds the system.
The night is the repair shop of the body.
Every part of the system is slightly over
hauled, and all the organs, tissues and
substances are replenished. Waking con-
sumes and ~exhausts; sleep replaces and
repairs; waking is death, sleep is life.
The man who sleeps little repairs little.
A man who would be a good worker must
be a good sleeper. A man has as much
force in him as he had provided for in
sleep. The quality of mental activity
depends upon the quality of sleep.
Men need On an average eight
hours of sleep a day. A lynphatie tenn
permanent may require nine; a nervous
temperament six or even. A lymphatic
man, if sluggish, moves and sleeps
slowly. But a man acts quickly
IN everything. He does more in an hour
than a sluggish man in two hours; and so
in his sleep. Every man must sleep ac-
eording TO his temperament-but eight
hours is the average. Whatever by work,
pleasure, sorrow, or by any other cause,
is regularlR diminishing his sleep, is de-
stroying his life. Men are dissipsted who
overtax their system all day and under
sleep every night. A man may hold out
for a time, but the crash will come, and
he will die. There is a great deal of in
temperance besides that of tobacco, opium
or brandy. A man who dies of deIirium
tremens is no more a drunkard and sui
| than the editor, or printer, that
works necessarily all day and sleeps but
little all night.
Advertising, as an active partner in
the prosecution of business, is slowly be-
coming understood in all parts of this
country. Notwithstanding our national
b~oastfulness, displayed m-this, as in some
other things, it is true that advertising is
so generally nor so thoroughly appre-
ciated here as in some portions of Europe.

and buyer-the man having and the man
wanting-into acquaintance. With this
is coupled the idea of creating the want
by showing how it can be satisfied to the
Of some expense, or the addition
of some profit. The instances Of success
are so AumerOus and patent, that no
business is now carried on without il.
Even our churches advertise their meet
n ministers. Public charities,
scientific discoveries, political projects,
philosophical theories, all advertise them
selves as a sine qua 0 of success. Bust
ness necessarily p~atrOnizes this %adjuvant
n most largely. Among these
are all those who nave obtained ths great
prosperity: the Fairbanks, Bonner,
LOrillard, Pdekdrd's Monthly, the Gov
eminent loans, Elias Howe, Barnum,
Stewart, W. G. Dodge, the Pacific rail
Steinway, Orange Judd, Harper &
Bros, G. X. Lands, Hostetter, etc, and
Philadelphia, DIR. Sehenck, John Wana-
DIR. Jayne,an others,are all heavy
advertisers, and, like Or. Bradreth. some
IF them, themselves publishers, show by
heir practice that they approve their own
medicine Holloway, of London, appa-
leads the list, with an advertising
outlay amounting to 5000, 900 last year.
As many of these have tried the expert
nent for a quarter of a century, and some
onger, they must be considered judges
II its returns.
