though fully adequate TO the demand. is not
so large. Prime paper. having from thirty to
sixty days to run, is discounted at the usual
rates-l0 to II per cent.
Exchange, though making more freely, is
not more than equal to the demand, and
there are few If any sellers among the banks
to-day. Rates have undergone no change
since yesterday. Cotton bills are taken at Nc
discount in large amounts, and in some cases
par is paid to customers who have only small
amounts to offer. In selling &c premium is
the rate asked.
Gold Is lower, opening at 1149S in New York
and declining to 1l41S. Dealers here would
purchase round lots at 1l31s. but do not offer
more than 113 where the amount offered is
small.
Local stocks and securities are without i'm

tary force to chronic stenches; insists
that the fever prevails at jackson and
Vicksburg, Miss; intimates that he is
not afraid of the fever; asserts that no
well authenticated case ever occurred in
Memphis, and argues that with ordi-
nary precaution on the part of the city
authorities, combined with the efforts OF
each individual. the fever may be kept
at bay all the time" Our confrere is an
enthusiastic chap, and can take any side
of any question with unquestionable
ability.
A morning contemporary says the yell
low fever prevails at jackson and Vicks-
burg, Mississippi, but adds there is no
possibility Of its coming to Memphis.
The curious would like to know why2
The arrival of the yellow fever in the
city is not only possible but probable.
Cases are liable to be put off at the rail-
road depots or steamboat landing at any
hour, A steamboat landing at this point
few days since put off the body of a
dead mana victim to the fever-who
died a short distance below this port.
The body was placed in a metallic coffin
and sent through to St. Louis by rail.
Even the arrival Of the fever in the city
is nothing to be frightened about, yet it
is we'll enough to pay some attention to
well established facts.

"Duck Creek addresses a letter of

MOUTH OF DUCK CREEK,
OK BOARD STR. BULL OF TEE WOODS,
September ". 1871.
Duck CREEK-In reply to yours Of
the 2lst / should say: In the first place
the size of the barges will depend en-
tirely upon how you wish to qualify A
boat of the dimensions of the Bull of the
Woods, say five hundred tons burden,
will be Just able to carry the Govern
ment outfit, without leaving any room
for freight, passenger Or fuel. In this
case it has been found more profitable
to use the boat as depot for the recep-
ton of Government appliances, and do
the business on the barges. This being
the case, it would be well enough to build
them large, and prepare for future ext
gencies, as the board are soon to meet
again, and an increase of couple of
hundred tons of metallic plug holes and
patent life-preserver is not at all i'm
probable. Your low water indicators
are superhuous. | have always observed
that when the water gets low in the
boilers it will report itself Some of the
loudest reports | ever heard was of this
character. AS to the whisky regulations
and perforated pipes, | think they will
not De necessary. ne rOuSldDOutSi "uO
will furnish their own (holds) and pipes,
will be found all regular on that ques-
ton, while, to keep them from crowding
each other, it will only be necessary to
raise the price from five to ten cents a
drink. The fire extinguishers and steam
pumps will have to be taken in such doses
as prescyibed, and l don't know but that
it would be well to have an extingusher
buckled on to the backs of all your pas
sengers and crew. 1t would give the
boat an air of safety, which would no
doubt induce business, besides you d be
death on any fires which might be en-
countered along the banks under way.
1t is evident the Government had an
eye to this when framing the law Your
idea that barges should not be allowed
to carry boilers over seven years old is
sound, and should be adopted as one Of
the regulations. We took one up last
week to the head of the Fork for Jones
saw mill, and no one slept wink until
it was put off, for fear it would blow up.
The inspectors couldn't be induced to
pass anywhere near it. 81 Wiggin, the
mate, says the reason why they wouldn't
do so was that there was ten kegs Of
powder stored Immediately under it.

VI ARRIED.-On the oath inst. at the
Evangelical Lutheran Church, by the
Rev Z. Keucher, Chas IIollam to Miss.
Bertha Bauer, both of this place.
1t is seldom that we are permitted to
witness 50 many persons congregated to
witness the nuptial Economics, which were
in this case solcmnized according TO the
ritual of the Ev Lutheran church. and
occupied one half hour.
The handsome little brick church was
filled almost to its utmost capacity. Pre-
ciscly at , O'Clock, p. m, the bride and
groom with their attendants dressed in "A
style betting the occasion, marched down
the isle and took their place in front of
the altar, with Mr.. John Palmer and Miss
HOham to the right and Mr.. and Mrs.
Fleming to the left, standing to receive
the rites Although the Economics were
performed in the German language.
the whole affair was solemn and impres
sive
We could not refrain from noticing
THAT DcIlHd anu \ uariPS were q handsome
bride and groom and perhaps will never
look more solemn and lovely than when
they received the bcncdlction.
Immediately after the services of the
church, the newly married couple, togeth-
er with large proportion of the congre-
CATION, met at the house OF John Hoham,
the groom father, where was prepared as
rich banquet as the land could afford
OF which, after formal congratulations to
the bride and groom, the party partook
with zest which was perhaps the best
evidence OF appreciation. 1t is due to
John Hoham. his excellent wife and daugh
ter to say that no pains were spared bv
them to render the guests comfortable, and
we believe that all left the house more low
ful and happy than when they entered.
And now Charles and Bertha we again
wish You much joy and desire you to re-
member that:

That uiar, iage rightly understood
