MEMPHIS THEATER.-Across the Con
tinent will bs presented at the Memphis
Theater on Monday evening next, with
Mr.. Oliver Doud Byron in the leading
role, supported by the New Orleans
stock company. Mr.. Byron is highly
spoken Of by the press of those cities in
which he has appeared in this his own
play. aud we doubt not his reception in
this city will be very warm one.
ORPHANS cERT.-To-morrow night
concert will be given in the Memphis
Club Hall for the benefit OF the Church
Orphans Home, in which the leading
talent of the city will appear. The
concert will be conducted by Professor
Perring, and during the evening he will
sing his ballad, Waiting for Angels to
Come" Mrs. Boylan, Miss Keep, Miss
Kate Williams and Messrs. Gideon and
Petersen are also among the number
who will sing.

now being laid on various streets in the
suburbs. The boys have almost entirely
quit bathing in the river, the water hav-

warmth by its color. Prepare to swear
at the smoking stove-pipe shortly. In
stead of saying clasp hands across the

now, in well-regulated sircles, to shake
fippers across the CORY ravine." Red

The large sales of cotton has n tendency Ia
make money easier. but as yet the result is not
generally felt in mercantile circles, and the
demand, though not quite as pressing. is ae-
tive. Bank rates are nominally l0gl2 D cent.
and ON the street rates range from 3@5 d cent.
q month. the latter of course being the rate
on outside paper.
Exchange is steady. with no change in either
the buying or selling rates. The banks take
cotton bills at &c discount. and in selling
charge &c premium on all points, except New
Orleans, which is sold AT par.
Gold is III in New York, and steady here at
l125% buying, at which price one dealer took
