muzzles. Watermclons are now album
dant and cheap, and nearly everybody
in the city eats them. We have heard
of several planters in the vicinity of
Memphis who say they will commence
picking cotton as early as next week.

buttermilk, which is not bad. Upland
crops in the region of country contigu-
GUS to Memphis are said to be in need Of
rain. In Memphis, persons of the mas
culine gender found drunk in the street
are made too do service on the chain
gang if they cant pay the fine Of FIVE or
ten dollars assessed against them; but
in Russian cities there is no if or and
about it, the topper being compelled to
sweep The streets the whole Of the next

good citizens to know that there is a
probability that our honorable County
Court will soon establish a county work

will the Nicolson pavement last at the

is done to preserve it, is a question
which should agitate the minds Of tax

hogs look very happy new, and the rea-
son is, they have no longer to fear the
hated pounds; therefore, they can roam
the streets at large with or without inn

FlfTaTfAtl Charity, 4aHftfN
This morning the emaciated form of
W. N. Perry was found lying lifeless in
the third story Of Front street build
ing, between Madison and Monroe
streets. Information Of the fact was at
once conveyed 10 Esquire Miller, who
held an inquest ON the body, during
which the melancholy fact was deyel-
oped that the poor old man had come to
his death from want and neglect. Perry
was man about sixty years of age, thin
visaged, lean and tall. His hair was
quite gray, as was his beard also. He
has been noticed by almost every citizen
of Memphis roaming about the streets
as one suffering great bodily pain, and
apparently having'no definite aim or OBJ,
ject in view, but simply, like the Wander
ing Jew, to keep moving on. For the
last, two years his health has been bad,
and during most of that time he has
been moving about from place to place,
lunching and sleeping in saloons,
billiard rooms and hotel Hobbies. His
entire worldly effects comprised a few
letters, advertising circulars, scraps OF
poetry, medical recipes, etc. Among
other letters was one from gentleman
in Baltimore, Md, which informed him
that his brother, Benz. A. Perry, was
connected with the house of Hamilton,

CHEAP STooK. = Yesterday Captain
Cranmer, of the detective force, learned
that there was a very cheap mule for sale
at one of the livery stables in the city,
and upon looking into the matter, found
that negro had offered to sell q mule
worth at least one hundred and fifty dol
lars for just one-third that sum. He
concluded to take the mule and the
ostensible owner likewise, but the darby
had gotten his suspicion aroused that all
was not right, and skipped of. This
morning Mr.. VIM, Brown reached the
city in search of mule stolen from him,
near Collierville, Saturday night, and
the mule was turned over to him.

Nothing worthy of note transpired in
monetary circles to-day. The demand
for money continues active, and dis
connts are made only upon prime paper
at 1O@l2 per cent. But little is doing
in exchange, and no transactions be-
tween banks are reported, Counter rates
are steady at PAROLE premium buying

declined to lac in New York, and is
bought by dealers at ia, though ll4a

Local investments are dull, and except
a transaction in Memphis and Charles
ton Railroad shares at 344c, no sales or
purchases were reported.

Ar 1T AGAIN.-The cistern at the cor
ner of Main and Jefferson streets ex-
ploded again last evening. The cause
this time was the throwing of piece of
burning paper in the cstern by one of
the fremen, while the cistern was being
filed with water. A low, rumbling
sound followed the experiment, and
pretty soon there was a fame coming
out of the mouth of the cistern that rose
to height of about fifteen feet. The
amount of gas in the cistern may be &C.
counted for by the fact that it is situated
near the Avalanche office.

BRooMs BENEfIT.-Manager Broom,
of the famous Jefferson street Opera
House, takes a.benefit at that popular
resort of amusement-seekers soon, and
it may be set down as a fixed fact that
when he oes he will have one Of the
largest audiences that ever assembled
in that cosy little theater. Mr.. Broom
is one of the most liberal of men him
self, and enjoys a degree of popularity
with the frequenters of his theater that
will always insure him bumper when
he takes benefit.

The river fell ten inches since our last
report, and is gradually coming down to
a low water level. Light rains are re.
ported on the upper Mississippi, and
local swell of one inch is reported at
Keokuk and Davenport. AT all other
points the different streams are declin-
ing, and light-draught boats are being
called into requisition. The Arkansas
has but three feet of water over the bars
below Little Rock and eighteen inches
above. White river has four feet to
Jacksonport. The weather this morning
was cloudy with the mercury at $40.
Business at the landing is dull.
The Shamrock expected to be relieved
from her uncomfortable position on the

The GAINESVILLE left for the Arkansas

The City of Vicksburg came up this

Considerable talk is INDUCED in at st. |
Louis with regard to the formation of
line of boats TO be run in opposition to
the Anchor Line, and will doubtless end
as it originated-in smoke. Some of St. |
Louis merchants are growing about
high rates to Vicksburg as compared to
those of New Orleans, but never once
consider that the Anchor Line boats do |
a way business, and that it costs them
at least 30 per cent. more to accommo-
date the public in that way than it does
through boat. The "splurge" Of a few
Greenville merchants, widely circulated,
amounted 10 nothing. The opposition I

The Chronicle Of the 10th, in its re-
sumo Of the week, says; The exports
for the week ending this evening reach
total Of DOGS bales, of which 9O6S were
to Great Britain, none to France, and
none to rest of the Continent, while the
stock as made up this evening, are now
81 ,s2l bales. Compared with the CORE
spending week Of last season, there is
an increase in the exports this week Of
434l bales, while the stocks to night are
So, 270 bales less than they were at this
time year ago. The falling off in the
the stock during the week has been con-
siderable, so that holders appear TO feel
less DESTROYS to sell; and yet there is a
general disposition to clear out stocks
before the next crop begins to come in.
For future delivery there has been great
irregularity. Crop accounts have been
conflicting, but on the whole have been
interpreted favorably, so that since
Tuesday there has been decline in
prices. The volume of business in fu-
lures has been large, though the mar
ket has lacked spirit, and closed tame
to-day" Since our last report New
York has declined lc, and Liverpool to-
day advanced I'd; there is little doing,
however, and few bales of low mid
ding at 20lc was all that was sold.
