from our ,cuu'y. Ills history from
lis schoolboy days up, through the
period Of our struggle f,r liberty is
froh with our county people who
watched with sympathy and respect
his course, NJ he battled bic way up
from the ranks during the var TO a
Brigadier Gencralship, won by biz
gallautry and oilicer-like bearing,
have watched his progressive course
since the war in business, aud have,
with equal qualification witnessed
his success. Col. Pinson was also a
gallant officer and greatly beloved
by his large circle of friends in North
Mississippi. Mr.. Estes was raised
in Marshal county, and bears a high
record as a Southern gentleman
The three combined intellects and
splendid business qualifications rem
der this one Of the strongest firms
in Memphis.
We'next present thefrm of Brooks,
Nicely & CO., in the same business,
and can say for them that, they are
not inferior in business qualifica-
tions, and none who rank higher in
the business circles. They keep a
very large stock, having two large
buildings on Front street filed with
groceries, liquors &c. They desire
a share Of the trade of our patrons
aud are worthy of it.
James Roper & Bro, another firm
Of grocery merchants are good bust
ness men,.
In the boot and shoe, hat and cap
line, we have a firm in Hill, Terry
IS Mitchell who are three of the best
merchants in the city and who have
the finest stock in Memphis. They
will sell exclusively at wholesale
and cau and will sell goods to our
merchants as cheap as they can
buy them East, and the merchant
can do better by buying of them than
to spend his money and time buying
a lot of goods East when lis trade is
not large enouslrto buy to any ads
vantage, and pay as much as the
goods are sold for by Hill, Terry
& Mitchell. Price their goods and
YOU will End out tbs fact.
The firm of Walden, Torrance and
Hawkins, Of New Orleans, is a new
one, but notunknown to our citizens.

Main street, Memphis, and we war
rant you will find as good a boot
maker as there is in the city and as
clever an Irishman al you will find
any where, and he will put you up
a good fitting boot. His stock of
custom made shoes and boots IS very
large.
We visited the Worsham House,
Memphis, last week, and found that
the ~proprietors, Messrs. White and
schley, had had the building reno
waited and thoroughly repaired and
all the inside of the building re-
painted. The Worsham House is
, now Just as good a hotel as You can
find in Memphis and only charges
50 so per day.
We call attention to the adver-
Itisement of Messrs. N, R. Sledge q
Co., offering a premium Of sl25 90
for the first bale of cotton shipped
q
Ito them. This is a very liberal of
fer from one firm and marks these
gentlemen as being fully up to the
standing Of eDterprizing, liberal mer-
chants who will not stand idle and
be distanccd by competition.
f. 1T will be seer, that the front Of
the sstaf'' building has lately been
embelished with a neat and hand

by Mr.. Hail, of this place, and if we
