features OF the hour. Although Of the greatest
battles In the history OF the world Is pending on the
frontier between France ana Prussia Wall street Is

THE COUNTS.

CIRCUIT CoURT.-On Saturday motions
we're heard and large amount of business
disposed of In the case of Smith VS.. the
Adams Express Company, a motion was
made for a new trial by defendant, which
was refused, and an appeal to the Supreme
Court prayed and granted. This case has
bsen tried once before and a new trial
granted in it. The suit is for the value of
forty-fve bales of cotton, burned while
being transported from Decatur Junction
to Nashville. supposed to have been set on
fire by sparks from the engine. Defend
ant at the time of shipping the cotton gave
plaintiff the usual Adams Express receipt
with the limitations and conditions printed
On the face of it. Plaintiff at the time of
accepting the receipt protested against the
fire clause and made defendants agent
enter his protest on the receipt. The jury
found a verdict for plaintiff for So, 105.
The question to be decided by the Supreme
Court upon the appeal is, can the shipper
relieve himself from the limitations and
conditions which the Adams Express Com
pany seeks to impose by having his protest
entered on his receipt at the time of ship
ment?
Divorces were granted in the cases of
John Myers VS.. Ellen Myers, and ]. j. Fisk
VS.. Josephine Fisk.
The case of Hosse VS.. Hosse was con-
cluded yesterday, and will be given to the
jury this morning.
In the case of Bourgeois VS.. James two
witnesses were examined, and the case will
be resumed this morning
CRIMINAL CoURT.-The misdemeanor
docket was called, and 65 cases disposed.
The call will be continued to-day.

with fraudulent breach of trust. He will

Tonight will witness the grandest, most
recherche and attractive combination of en-
tertainments at Masonic Hall which has
ever been seen in Nashville, brilliant as
have been our gatherings and musical fes-
rivals. The stage will be exquisitely
decorated with the choicest and rarest of
flowers from the gardens and hot houses
of Messrs. French, Nichol, MorganI and
other floral connoisseurs, dazzling the eye
and filling the hall with their fragrance and
aroma. AID orchestra, combining the best
talent of the city, under the leadership of
Prof Baldwin, will feast the ear with floods
of music. Vocal talent of a character unsur.
passed anywhere will regale the audience.
The rich, marvellous and pleasing melody of
Miss Bowen, and the delicious trilling of
Mrs Craig, supported by the majestic notes
of Mr. Dorman and his colleagues, with
many brilliant amateurs, lllend enchant-
ment to the exercises. A choice boquet
given to each lady as she enters the Hall,
will be an attractive feature, and will pro
duce profuse blending of sweet flowers
with sweet smiles and sweet songs--the
very poetry of life. Every arrangement
essential to success has been completed.
A very large number of seats have al
ready been taken, and we would advise
those who have not already done SO to Sc
cure seats this morning. Although I'M
der the present arrangement of seats the
occupant of every seat can see and hear,
1t is more pleasant to those escorting ladies
to have their seats secured.
