The Merchnnts, Tax.

At the regular monthly meeting of the
Memphis Chamber of Commerce, held on
the 18th, the following proceedings were
had:
Mr.. w. R. Moore offered the following
resolution upon the subject of the "mer-
chants taxi:
Whereas, the merchants of Tennessee
have for years been burdened with rate of
taxation from two to ten times the rate i'm
posed upon their fellow-citizens in other oc-
equations; and, whereas, for years they
have steadily appealed again and again to the
Legislature for relief from this unjust bur-
den, and have been refused that equal JUS
tice which they have respectfully sought;
therefore
Resolved, that they are now forced, much
against their viii, to appeal to the courts
for that justice which the Legislature has
persistently denied them.
Resolved, that the expenses Of defending
the suit contemplated in the above resolu-
ton be paid by private subscription OBJ
tanned for that purpose.
Resolved, that they feel deep interest
in sustaining the credit Of the State, and
regret that the Legislature has forced them
to seek in the courts the equal protection Of
the law.
Resolved, that committee of three be
appointed by the President of this Cham
Der of Commerce, whose duty it shall be to
employ learned counsel to defend their
cause, and to make all necessary arrange
ments to bring the question Immediately
before the proper judicial tribunals.
Resolved, that merchants throughout the
State be requested to refuse payment of
taxes until the final decision of the test case,
which we propose to Immediately make.
Resolved, that every newspaper in the
State be respectfully requested to publish
these resolutions conspicuously before their
readers

Attemuted Robbery,

Between the hours of ten and twelve
O'Clock last night, negro named George
Davis entered the yard in rear of Andrew
Fl. Coussens' drugstore, No. Sc Broad street,
for the purpose, it is thought, of breaking
open the same. Fortunately, Mr.. Coussens
heard the noise, and arming himself with a
pistol, opened the door and asked the negro
what he was doing there at that
late hour of the night. The negro started
towards Mr.. Coussens, who immedi-
ately fired five barrels of his pistol at the
ebony thief. The report of the pistol shots
brought officers Mansfield and Corbett to
the spot, who arrested the negro and lodged
him in the Workhouse for safe keeping un-
til this morning, at which time he will have
a committing trial.

Last night closed the engagement of the
justly renowned Edwin Forrest, one of
Americas famous actors, and In many re-
spects, one Of the greatest men known In
bis profession throughout the world. It IA
more than probable that he win never ap-
| pear again before Nashville audience, but
he has left an impression upon our theatre
| going public that viii be remembered for all
time to come. In years past, Nashville
audiences have been favored with visits
from numerous brilliant lights in the dra-
matte armament, some Of whom might be
compared to the momentary blaze of a
rocket, or rather, the flash of a meteor,
! which is only seen when falling, or the
| northern lights which appear TO fash and
| flicker In ragged confusion. Not so with
Forrest. His brilliancy resembles the dia-
mond of genius, and like the constant food
! Of light which emanates from some wildly
waving torch that caste broad illumination
into the dark places of nature. As In the
sea shell, long separated from its native sea,
there yet fingers, or seems to linger, when
you apply it to the ear, the distant and far
| off murmur of the main, so In the recollec-
ton of man of genius, like Forrest, there
fingers an echo of that which Is vast and
infinite. There is language in his face, a
meaning in every gesture, and new and
strikingS conceptions in every sentence
that he utters.
In the different characters represented by
Mr.. Forrest during the week, he has made
himself simply looking glass to nature,
and has earned a title to the applause Of all
who appreciate true greatness. In his per-
sonation of Lear, last evening, there was
observable the same mellowness that char
acterized other parts in his role, and it was
if anything more effective, producing the
same wrapt attention on the part of the
audience, who seemed to realize the fact
that the voice of genius, though often rug
ged, sometimes wrathful, despairing, is al
! ways cry from its own heart. Low some
times as the sob of the dying deer, and
again as loud as the crash and darkness of
thousand storms, bursting their inaccess-
| ible abodes Of crags and thunder-clouds.
In that vast audience at Masonic Hall
last night, could scarcely be found a single
individual who was not willing to accord to
the distinguished actor the highest need of
praise for the truthful and faithful rendition
of SLakspeare's sublime conception, and
there were many, no doubt, who regretted
the close of this season Of dramatic grand
eur.
The company supporting Mr.. Forrest
throughout the week have won golden opin-
ions from all. The different characters last
night were ably sustained, and Mr.. McCau-
ley's Edgar in particular was worthy of spe-
cial mention, while Mrs. McCauley as Cor
della eclipsed all former efforts.

81 am Waiting for Your Coming" words
from the Hdrerly Magazine, with piano ac-
compartment by J. e. Murdock-a pretty
little song, light as air, and exquisite in sem
timent and melody.
"Oscnlation, or The Kiss" by Hermann
Strackhauer, a composer who formerly
moved in Nashville circles, and will be re-
cogn zed by our older citizens. His present
effort is song of rare merits and eminently
worthy of its attractive title.
"The Old Bachelors Waltz" by j. S.
Murdock-a gentle reminder to the dilatory
this coming leap year.
81 Long for Loves Sweet Pleasure" a
charming canzonet from the Italian Of Luigi
Badia, author OF the popular "Rapture of
Love" waltz.
We are indebted for the above to James
A. Mcclure, of Union street, and would re-
mind our friends that no Christmas gift
could be more appropriate than budget of
rare melody.

Another Version.

In yesterdays paper we made mention o.
a woman having detailed divers wrong:
and injuries done to two of her sex by an
angry husband. Last night we were in.
formed that the facts in the case were muct
perverted by the woman, and that the gen
tleman only kicked two disreputable fe.
males out Of his house, and also inflicted a
severe chastisement upon his wife for as
sociating with such characters. 1t is stated
that the two females had upon former oc
casion whipped the man and threatened tC
play the Ku-Kux with him, if he dared dis
quite their amazonian rights to speak and
act as they pleased.

Our enterprising young friend, VIM
Iron, having returned to the city, and per.
manently located here, is driving a brisk
business in the wholesale manufacture, al
No. IL Deaderick street, of prize candy
packages. His sales within the past few
weeks have been so vastly increased over all
former demands, as to demand greatly in
creased facilities in the business of making
and preparing these prize packages
for the retail trade, necessitating the
employment of considerable capital
and labor. A slight glance at Mr.. irons
packing room gives some idea of the vast
ness of the work as he carries it on, causing
the beholder to think himself in the Office OF
z banker or broker. Here and there about
the room are to be seen heaps Of gold and
silver coins, packages of national currency,
piles Of prize packages and boxes of the
same ready for shipment. Mr.. Iron is
well-known to those of our citizens who
have had business dealing with him as in
all respects prompt and reliable. All or
ders addressed or left with him will be
properly and faithfully filed. 100 .
