This morning a young man bound for
Texas was standing in front of the Com
mercial Hotel, when two elegantly
dressed gentlemen approached him and
stated that he owed the other some
money, but could not get change for a
fifty dollar bill. The young Texan drew
out his pocket-book containing one hun
dred and twenty dollars to change the
bill, but the pocket-book was snatched
by the well-dressed gentlemen, and both
thieves escaped down Jefferson street.
The Texan had ticket for Galveston,
but not a cent of money in his posses
sion after the robbery. The police are
on the track of the confidence men, and
will probably arrest them before night.

MEMPHIS THEATER.- Last night the
theater was crowded by fashionable
and appreciatiye audience, notwithstand-
ing the severity of the weather. Mr.
Jack, as Sir John Falstaf," in Henry
the Fourth, was everything to be COM
mended, and received the applause Of
the audience. He was ably sustained by
the members of the company. At the
close of the drama, the laughable farce
Of Little Pickles was presented, introduc-
ing that precocious and wonderful phen-
omenon, Master Julien Reed, who fairly
captivated the audience by his remark
able rendition Of characters. AS the
Sailor, the Highlander and the Dutch
man, he created wonder and merriment.
His songs were well rendered, and his
dances were artistically performed. AT
the matinee to-day Miss Rosalie Jack
will make her debut before a Memphis
audience, in the character of Little
Nell, the Angel Child, after which Lit
tie Pickles, with Master Reed as the lead
ing character, will wind up the perform
ance. The performances of these Won
derful children are deservedly popular,
and we expect to see the theater crowded
to excess at the matinee. Tonight the
Merry Wives Of Winsdor will be pre-
sented and the engagement of Mr..
Jack, the great Falstaff, will close, thus
ending for a time the presentation Of
the legitimate drama.
VAmETIEs.-Manager Schooles has a
splendid troupe performing at his Wash
ington street theater. Tonight SPLEEN

Stage Manager German. The best Of
dancing and singing and the most anus
ing negro comicalities are presented
nightly. Go tonight, and witness the
performance at this popular little place
of amusement. auH

The above amusing heading appears
above the publication Of the weekly let
ter list in the Avalanche Of this morn
ing. The late discussion on general
circulation between our morning cotem-
poraries ought to have satisfied our JEFF
ferson street neighbor Of the danger in
trespassing upon the territory belonging
to others. The Avalanche is a huge
joker, and perpstrates Muncdausen jokes
with an air of grim humor. The ordin-
airy reader does not understand that the
style of Dickens pervades every line Of
original matter published in the Ava
lanche, and that these illusions must be
understood in Pickwiekian sense
When an Avalanche joke is fully under
stood, it.becomes the broadcast of farces,
and rivals a Shaksperean comedy in
FalstafIian exaggeration. Our neigh
boris latent humor is not fully appre-
ciated or understood, and we will en-
dearor, in the explanation Of the letter
list joke, to show the amusing side Of
the question. We dislike to see so
much literary skill lost TO the world for
want of an explanation, but it is due to
the public that the genius Of our neigh
Dor for humor and jest should not re-
main hid under a bushel. Some years
ago the Postoffiee Department issued
instructions to our Memphis postmaster
to pay for the publication of the letter
list, and to give it to the paper having
the largest city circulation, which fact
could be easily discovered at the post
Office. Under this arrangement the
PUBLIC LEDGER had the publication of
the letter list for two years, and was
paid for its publication But change
came over the dreams INDUCED in by
the Department, aud it was concluded
to have the letter list published without
pay. The letter list was offered to the
LEDGER under this new proposition, as it
had the largest city circulation, but the
proprietors refused the liberal offer 1t
was then offered to any paper which
would acceptitas gift. The Avalanche,
with that enterprise for which it is so
noted, got the letter list and continues
to publish it up to this time. This is
well enough; but when the Avalanche,
our city joker, places above the letter
list the amusing paragraph that the let
ter list was published officially in the
Avalanche" because it has the largest
circulation within the delivery Of the
Memphis postoffice," the absurdity Of the
assertion becomes apparent, and our
neighbor stands revealed as humorist
not excelled by Mark Twain or Bret
Harte. To avoid further misapprehen-
sion, our Jefferson street wag should,
after all such publications hereafter,
write This is to be understood as a
joke .

RIVER, BUSINESS, MISCELLANEOUS.
The river is steadily declining here

latter point. The Ohio is stationary at
Louisville, rising at Cincinnati and is
stationary at Pittsburg, with heavy rains
at all three points. White river is fall
