Last night Sergeant Braun, while sit
ting in front Of the lower district sta
tion-house, noticed buggy going past
at rate of speed unwarranted by the
city laws, and tried to prevail on the
driver to stop, but without effect, the
Sergeant being dismounted aud unable
to overtake the horse. Soon after the
horse and buggy came tearing by again,
and another unsuccessful effort was
made to arrest their progress. At the
corner of Uuion and Main streets pa
trolman yelled out. to the driver that if
he did not quit driving so fast he
would break his heck, but his
words were uuheeded. Meanwhile
Sergeant Braun had mounted his
charger and was in hot pursuit. Down
Shelby street the race was a close one to
the corner of South, where the buggy
struck an obstacle and turned over,
spilling its occupants, lady and gem
tleman, on the ground, The Sergeant,
leaving the man and woman groaning
in the street, went on to overtake and
bring back the horse and buggy. Re-
turning o few moments later he could
find neither the man nor woman where he
had left them, but after diligent search
discovered the man lying concealed be-
hind brick-kiln. Going up to
him he asked where the woman
WASP The man replied that he knew
nothing about any woman, and declined
to say anything concerning the partner
of his midnight Gilpin ride. The man,
who gave his name as Dore, not the
great artist, was then taken to the sta
tion.house, where it was found that his
face had been severely bruised by the
fall. When brought before the Recorder
this morning he was let off without fine,
that official considering that the injuries
he sustained by the fall were sufficient
punishment The first call upon him to
halt was made about ten o'clock last
night, and the accident did not occur
until about one this morning.

A REvIEw.-Rev. Guilford Jones, one
of the most eloquent and scholarly d.
vines of this city, has published a review
of Rev. Samuel Watson's book on spirit
ualism, entitled "The Clock Struck
One" In his review, Rev. Mr.. Jones
quotes largely from Holy Writ to sustain
his assumptions, and does not spare Mr..
Watson's book. The reviewer and the
reviewed are ministers of the same de-
nomination, who have been working side
by side for many years, and, all things
considered, the review is little tight,
but by no means unchristian like, so far
as we can judge. The book is for sale at
all the bookstore.

BEAUTY's BEST AUxILIARY.-Ask the
belle of the season what appointment Of
her toilet-table holds the highest place
in her esteem, and she will reply, with
out moments reflection, HAGAS's MAG
EoLIA BALM. Nothing, she is thorough
ly aware, contributes so powerfully to
enhance her charms and render her ir-
resistible as that most delightful and
healthy auxiliary Of Beauty. By using
it ladies are enabled, long after they have
passed the meridian Of life, to preserve
the useful bloom and purity of their
compilations, and where Nature has de-
MED that superlative attraction, the
Balm fully compensates for her def
ciencies. eod-d&w

The ExPosITIoE.-The progress made
by the various committees who are push
ing forward the arrangements for the
forthcoming Exposition, has, we learn,
been thus far most satisfactory. The
price of admission has been fixed at
twenty-five cents, and the entire space
for exhibitors will be given free. Sheriff
Curry reports having made arrange
ments with all the railroad and steam
boat lines leading to the city, ana also
reduced rates for freight. As we have
before said, we think the Exposition viii

A TWENTY-FIVE YEAR OLD SKELETON.
Capt. Athy has in his Office an old car
pet-bag full of human bones. These
bones were found yesterday in the attic
of an old vacated house at the back OF
the Beal street old mill house. I'm
mediately after the finding of the bones
there we're vague whispers Of murder
The character of the house was called
into question, and the result was to
strengthen the belief in the mysterious
and diabolical deed. Capt. Athy, on
looking at the homes, gave it as his judg-
ment that the murder, if murder it was,
must have been committed some years
ago, as he felt quite positive those bones
had not had any flesh on them for ten
years at least. A physician, who ex-
amined the bones, saw Capt. Athy's
ten years and went fifteen better. He
thinks they once furnished a study for
some enterprising young disciple Of
Esculapius. r

AN APPEAL TO HEADoUARTERs.-Some
days ago General w. j. Smith, the en-
terprising surveyor Of the port Of Mem
phis, commenced tearing up the iron
rails of the Memphis and Little Rock
railroad, because the President, W. B.
Greenlaw, would not pay Smiths claim
of fourteen thousand dollars on account
of the Government. Mr.. Greenlaw tel
egraphed directly to President Grant at
Washington as soon as he heard of
Smiths operations, and dispatch soon
came from headquarters ordering that
functionary to desist. In the mean
time, however, the rails en- the incline
plain used for transferring freight had
been torn up and brought to this side of
the river. A little useless outlay is in
volved in the matter.
