Very creditsble to Memphis are the de-
signs for a Masonic Temple, now on exhi-
hilton at the fair. Looking at them yes
terdaY we were not surprised that the
! committee awarded them the blue ribbon
and gold medal, nor that General Beau
regard, a critical judge, from taste and
experience, as well as by profession,
should commend them SIS worthy of all
praise. Without dispsrsgement of any
existing designs, 1t may be said of them
that they could not we'll be surpassed.
From base to tuPret, from tower
to foundation stone, there is unity
Of design and perfect harmony. The
Gothic, the most majestic Of all
the orders of architecture, Is here
presented In perfection and blending with
1t We find the various symbols ofthe order
whose proud boastit Is that in architecture
it finds the texts for a sublime system of
morals as old az the hrst temple erected
to the glory of the Great Architect by
Solomon, the First Grand Master. Here
are projections, windows, doors, and tow
ers breaking up into shFeds and patches
of beauty, this picture whose perfection
lies in the harmony OF these one with
another and their unity in a design that
must aver remain q monument to the pro-
fessionsl skill and taste tibet woFked them
out. Front n Side elevations are equal
ly perfect in detail. This architectural
picture arrests every BYE, the proportions
are 30 just; and the most pleasant i'm
pressiOns and agreeable recoIlections are
the result of a critical examination of it,
We hope Mr.. Cook may find a bid for it
and that a Memphis architect may vet
have the proud satisfaction of erecting a
Masonic temple as beautiful as any our
country can boast,
OYSTERS.
John Sturlais fresh Norfolk oysters, on
ice, took the Hrst premium yesterday at

filled with gentlemen and ladies who
came to see how well he prepares these
uneoualed oysters.

Getting Mighty Short.

Boarding the lightning express on

startled by an African as follows:
"Look here, boss, l want to AK you

track
"Where do you want to go, uncle ?"
we asked.
"To Fort Gibson, way down in Ar
kansaw, sir. Now, boss, is ignorant,
and want to know if Is on the right
kear for Cincinnati"
We assured our sable friend he was
all right for Cincinnati, when he broke
loose as follows:

The halfcrown, or two-and-a-half
shilling piece has ceased to be coined
at the British mint, and the London
Times says that the feeling against the
abolition of this coin is apparently
very strong among the large portion of
the British public. The discussion
caused by this modification Of the cur
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1871-10-17


rency has, it is stated, revived the pro-
position that a ten-penny piece, CORES
ponding to the French franc, should
be coined. Foreigners in England, it
is argued, would find no difficulty in
using the ten-penny piece, or frame, as
two of these coin would be equal to a
Prussian thaler, and FIVE would be equ-
al to an American dollar, and, at the
same time three would be equal to the
existing half-crown.
The Times suggests that if any of
the present English coins are to be
abolished, the most useful change
would consist in transforming the form,
or two-shilling piece, into half dol
lar piece or coin, worth twenty-five
pence. 1t is argued that while all
persons who preferred to do so might
adhere to the old modes, the conven-
.iences of francs, half-dollars and dollars
would SO steadily commend them to
general use, that in the course of few
years they would become perfectly
naturalized in Great Britain as suita-
BILE for all exchanges of goods and 9th
err commodities.
