The Richings Jubilee takes place at Media,

specially arranged for the occasion. This

which has ever taken place in Delaware county

splendid painting of the Awakening Of
Spring. From the idea we gain Of the
painting from the photograph we judge
it must be what many Of the European
art critics claim for it-A genuine work
of art. The picture represents figure
Of spring just awakening from the sleep
Of winter. a number Of little Cupids
carrying away the sheet Of snow which
developed her form, and little dimpled
Cupid kissing her into life, while another
approaches with an offering of early
April flowers. The conception is most
poetic, and the execution admirable.

EXPOSITION.


The Board of Directors of the Mem
phis Industrial Exposition appeal to
subscribers of stock to come forward
and pay what they owe to the Secretary,
at his office, No. s Jefferson street. The
work on the building is being retarded
on account of their delinquency, and it
is important to have the building com
plsted in ample time. Every citizen of
Memphis is interested in the success of
the Exposition, and the Board of Direc-
tors earnestly hope their efforts will be
appreciated, and that citizens who have
not united in the enterprise will yolun-
tarily come forward and take a reasona-
BILE amount of stock, or address a note
to the Secretary, who will call on them.
To insure the grand success which the
Board desire, further subscriptions to
the amount of ten thousand dollars
are required. If that is done, there
is hardly a doubt that half or all
the money advanced by stockholders
will be refunded from the proceeds of
the first Exposition; that at Nashville
having been attended by one hundred
thousand visitors, which will be equaled
here at least, and, at twenty-five cents,
yield twenty-five thousand dollars. The
Board of Directors appeal to citizens
for the necessary assistance. New sub
scribers can leave their names at Brown
& Jones, No. 280 Main street, or with
the undersigned, or any member Of the
Board of Directors. 55
1t is confidently believed that no en-
terprise was ever undertaken in this
city which will add more to its business
and good name, in proportion to the
capital invested.

he would appoint others in the places,
and only three of the City Council took
the oath, and the others were removed
and others were appointed. After
that he had the Mayor arrested and
paroled him. and required him 10
report to him at the Capitol every
Saturday, for five weeks, which the
Mayor complied with. The next thing
he aid was to have General William g.
Harding and General Washington Bar
row. Judge Joe c. Guild and all the
ministers of the Gospel arrested and
placed in military prison, at the state
Penitentiary, and kept them confined
for some time, and then had them sent
North and placed in a military prison,
and kept there for months without any
canse whatever, and while General
Washington Barrow was confined IN
prison, he lost his health and did not
live long. The next thing he did was
10 have the druggists and bankers and
wholesale liquor merchants arrested and
nlaced in the State Penitentiary with
ont any cause whatever. The next
hing he did was to have the Superinten.
