Whig and tribune. [volume] (Jackson, Tenn.) 1870-1877, 1871-11-25

= Eiucr a. d. Earle, Lhc great EeflN atlsb Oh
the Baptist church, and who is one Of the
greatest lights OF that church, will be here
TO hold a series OF meetings with the gifted
a, Rev. j. +. b. Mays, Pastor Of the Baptist
Church OF this city, on Sunday, Dec. 10th,
He has been preaching In Nashville for the
/ last two weeks, and there has been such
an eagerness 10 hear him that neither Of the
Baptist churches would begin 10 hold the
congregations and they have had TO move
into the Grand Exposition building, and
that has been flled. F-.. 49,
Several gentlemen "whose names shall
be nameless here, p who firmly declared that
they would not suIly the stainless purity Of
their christian piety by patronizing the
"drama," were observed nightly during the
week hanging around the entrance TO Tom
Inns Hall. Whether they approached thus
near the "allurements of the DEVIL" to bet
ter view the matehless beauty Of the starry
heavens, or whether they were there to warn
the wieked-to flee from the wrath to come,
or whether they come to hear the sweet
music Of our Silver Cornet Band, or to
modestly and virtuously observe the ladies
as they gracefully passed up and into the
Hall, we do not know. Who does?
SMART Young MEN,-De Castro, the
great uecromancer, whilst in this city
taught several Of our young meA how to
perform some of his best tricks. These
tricks his scholars have been freely per-
forming on the streets OF the city ever since
to the wonder OF the unsophisticated. Sew
| eral "countrymen" who witnessed their
performances, came TO the natural cOnclu-
sion that there were entirely too many
"smRrt young men" IN jackson.

DELIGHTFUL.-We know of nothing more
delightful than to puff one Of L. Rosen-
thaPs premium cigars. The soul rises with
the curling smoke into the beautiful and
blissful dream land, where cares are for
gotten, and ali is brightness and beauty.
A luxury so rare and grateful should not
be neglected. Then go to RosenthaPs
Cigar and Tobacco Store, on Main street,
third door from the corner Of Main and
Market, and purchase lot Of his highly
favored cigars.

A LIBERAL PROPosITIoN.-The Hon. D.
II. King, approaching the inability Of
courage and muscle to suppress great fire,
should one visit us as it has other cities,
proposes 10 head list for the purchase Of
steam fire engine, with $500. The experience
Of the last twelve months has convinced
every one that our present fire organization
prompt, gallant, and disciplined as it is,
cannot rescue a building from the flames,
and that should a great fire break out in
the heart of the city, il would be almost |
powerless for the want OF an engine. A |
great calamity from fire is imminent in this |
city, and property holders generally should |
to the sensible and liberal propo- |
sition of Mr.. King. Nine men as liberal |
as Mr.. King can secure the engine, and we
have confidence enough in the ability and |
enterprise of our citizens to believe they |
will. With an engine fifty men can do
more than two thousand with buckets, and |
every consideration of interest demands the
success of Mr.. Kings proposition. The |
city council have made an appropriation |
for public cisterns, now let us have the /
Engine, and all will be well.
The well-known grocery firm of A. C.
TreadweI S Bros, Of Memphis, respectful
ly invite attention to their card in another
column, and a share of the trade of this
