TEE NARROw-GAUGE.


The trade contemplated between gen.
tlemen from st. Louis and the share
holders in the Memphis and Raleigh
Narrow-gauge road vas approved yester-
day, as we are advised, by the required
majority of the stockholders. The pur-
chasers take the road as it is, agreeing to
complete and equip it from Union street
to Raleigh and Bartlett. The Outstand-
ing stock certificates are TO be reduced
one-half, and thus the purchasers secure
an Invaluable property at about one
half its real value. Railroad men
are few in number, and men
gain bogus fame in this business
which soon cOllapses. The Memphis
road has extinguished several embryo
kings, who drifted sublimely for a time
on the tempestuOus surface of the indie
scribable sea of luck, and finally explod-
ed into native nOthingness. Many peO-
pie are smashed up by railroads who
never got aboard a train, and this little
Raleigh line has telescoscOped several
spOtless Misunderstanding regulations.
We can at least see through them now.
WHAT COMES OF IT.
On the twenty-second instant, at
jackson, there will occur a meet
ing VI Ine COipOIdOOIS duu SIdI6-
holders in the Memphis and
Jackson Narrow-gauge road. This sale
of the Raleigh line and its probable
speedy extension to Bartlett, will excite
in Madison and Fayette counties keen
anxiety for the immediate con-
nection of Jackson with Raleigh
through Raleigh. In fact, jackson is
forced to make the country in the direc-
ton of SOmerville and Hickory Wythe
accessible, or the whole wealth of that
rich district will be diverted. Moreover,
citizens of Jackson and Madison county,
compelled, as half of them are, to visit
Memphis twice or thrice each year, lose
enough in difference of charges made by
a direct narrOw-gauge and the crooked,
broad roads to pay twenty per cent. an
nually on the cost of the narrow-gauge.
Meanwhile, every Memphis eorporator
in the Jackson scheme, and representa-
tives of the Raleigh Narrow-gauge,
should be in Jackson the twenty-second
instant, when the capital stock of the
company may be q~uadrupled.

THE THOUsAND-DOLLAR ROB.
Berry.
Two Negroes Captured On Suspicion az
COtIieryiIIe-They were Committed
fer Trial Yesterday.

A few days ago it was published In the
APPEAL that some thieves had broken
into the hotel at Collierville, of which
MI. J. Turner is proprietor, and carried
off
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS.
The money had been deposited in the
drawer Of a common wooden table for
safe keeping. The thieves by some
means got a knowledge of this fact, and
on Wednesday night last, a couple OF
negro thieves burglariously entered the
Office of the hotel by forcibly opening
one of the windows. Having obtained
access to the premises, they seized upon
The table containing the treasure, car
RED 1t down to a cOttOn-patch, and burst
1t open and carried off the money.
Information of the robbery was
brought 10 Memphis, and the assistance
Of the detectives anxiously solicited
from Chief Athy. After much sOlicita-
ton he directed that subtle detective.
Mr.. Harry Cranmer, TO proceed to Col
lierville and
WORK UP THE CASE.
Mr.. Cranmer went out, and with that
Uenf-U9dS for which he is so celebrated,
soon obtained the Uici, and had two ne
groes, George Blair and Adam White.
in custody. On Thursday morning they
were brought before Squire IVY and
Mayor Davis for examination. Several
lawyers were engaged for the prosecu-
ton and defense, and
THE HEARING
lasted till yesterday, when the Presiding
Justice, notwithstanding to a large amount
Of testimony and arguments of counsel,
committed Blair in the sum of two.
thousand dollars and White in three
thousand dollars for trial at the coming
term of the Criminal Court. Blair gave
the necessary sureties, but White, being
unable to give bail, was brought to the
city by Detective Cranmer and commit
ted to Jail. The working up of this case
is another 'mankinr to show that
Harry Cranmer is a deteetive-cute,
intelligent, and ever wide awake.

ASSAULT WITH A WEIGHT.
A Man Dangerously Enfured-Re Re
faseS to Leave n Store when Re
quested BY the Proprietor
Hence the Assault.

Yesterday afternoon a couple of Ger
mans named respectively Philip ROs-
selle and Jacob Pugher, visited Mrs.
CorrelPs lager-beer garden, on Poplar
street, and drank freely of beer for a few
hours. Then they adjourned to Ros-
selPs grocery in Hupperstown, where
Pugher became very unruly.
ROSSELL DEMONSTRATED
with him in regard to his conduct, and
told Pugher if he did not behave him
self he would push him out. Pugher
seemed however determined to have
A QUARREL,
and from words the parties came to
blows. In the struggle, which LASTED
some time, ROssell seemed to get the
worst of it, and
SEEING A WEIGHT,
he struck Pugher a terrible blow with il
over the left temple, which made him
bite the dust. Pugher was picked up by
some parties who witnessed the fight,
and carried home.
AT A LATE HOUR
he was reported to be in a dangerous
condition, although it was not expected
the injury he had received would prove
fatal.
ROsSELL
was arrested by the police, and taken to
the Adams street statiOnhouse to await
an examination before the Recorder this
morning.
