ehasers of the McMinnViIle and Man
chester road, the lion, al the present
high prices, is estimated to be worth five
hundred thousand dollars; and couple
this with the three hundred and fifty
thousand due this road from the Nash
vile and Chattanooga, makes it q hand
some business transaction. So the wild,
idIe rumors that have been put in cireu-
lation, that Judge Hickerson, Asa
Faulkner and b. ]. Hill, with all the
names on the bond to the State, will be
made bankrupt, should the Memphis
and Charleston fail to carry out their
contract, may be dismissed from the
minds of the skeptical, and rejOicings
succeed them. All e~nteFprising bust
ness men desire the success rather than
the misfortune of such men. and should
they be forced to become purchasers in
selfdefense, we see no place in which a
financial misfortune could Oyertake
them. 1t was in reference to these
matters, and the call for ten per cent.
upon Memphis and Charleston stock
holders, which induced a correspondent
to ask whether a ring had not been or
gained TO gobble all Memphis and
Charleston stock, first depressing it.
The above facts are suggestive.

The Future Of h MeMtnnVtsle asfi
Manchester Railroad. -


There is a good deal Of anxiety, says
the McMinnville NeW Era, felt In
tfis mountain country as to whether
tie Memphis and Charleston Railroad
Company has the ability or disposition
to carry out in good faith their contract
with the stockholders of the McAIinn-
vile and Manchester Railroad Company,
made through their commissioners, +.
K. Bell, Judge Hickerson and w. w.
Gill. In the first place, the Memphis
and Charleston has spent about two
hundred thousand dollars on the South
western and Sparts, branch railroad.
They have also paid to the State
the first payment of seven
ty-ive thousand dollars on
the purchase Of the McMinnville and
Manchester, and it would be suicidal to
abandon their contract, and consequent
~ lose all this amouiIt Of money. We
are firm in the belief that the Memphis
and Charleston, heilded by General
John ID. Rather, Judge Brine, Colonel
Bradley, N. ]. Wicks, James J. Done
gan, in connection with the other high
minded and wealthy stockholders of
that company, win not suffer our road
to be sold by the State, and the cOnse-
quent loss to them of all the amounts
they have already paid. We cannot be-
lieve that the road viii be sold at all.
But fiji should be sold, we are informed
that twenty men in Warren aud Coffee
counties, who are ind0rsers on the bond
ID the State for two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars, have met and resolved
to raise the money and purchase the
road In February, should 1t 80 to q sale.

THERE is good authority for Saying
that in this country one adult out Of ev-
| cry six dies of Consumption; and, in
deed, so prevalent has this disease be-
come, that it is dreaded as the great
scourge of the race; and yet in the for
native stages all Pulmonary Complaints
may be readily controlled by resorting
promptly to the E%xpectorant of DR..
Jayne, which sOothes and strengthens
the bronchial tubes, allaying infiamma-
ton and cleansing them and the lungs
Of all impurities. 1t is a certain remedy
for Coughs and Colds, which, when left
to themselves, frequently bring on Pull
mOnary Complaints, and it cures B:on-
ehitis effectually if taken in time, and
the directions strictly followed. 1t has
maintained its reputation for over a
quarter Of a century, ard If those who
are threatened with Lung Diseases or
any of the symptoms of Bronchitis or
Asthma, will at nee give this standard
remedy a trial, they will never regret it.

FIRE.
The Honse Of Mckinney. Near Herman
do Road, Entirely Destroyed.

At half-past ten O'Clock last night the
red reflection of burning premises shot
athwart the heavens and alarmed the
fire watchers. The bells rang out a
vicious peal and the fire engines whirled
through the streets, goingin the direction
of the fernando road. The light came
from the same direction as il did on the
memorable night of DR.. Laskfs de-
struetive e~onfagratiOn. Only one of
the engines went to the scene of con-
~tlagration, which vas near the intersee-
ton of Lauderdale and jackson streets,
tbey0nd the Selma railroad track. The
fire proceeded from the burning of Mr..
Mekinney's house. The DeSoto fire
engine went clear to the dwelling in a
very short time, and Captain Cleary and
his boys did good service in saving the
furniture of the lower rooms. When
our ubiquitous reporter arrived at the
scene the fire was just breaking through
the little cottage, which formed part of
the completed mansion, and about a
dozen people were present, not doing
much, but simply looking on in helpless
terror. Captain Cleary arrived shortly
atterward and went to work at once
saving the furniture. 1t was all he
SONAu W. thCAS bcIHS no m6dHS OF OD-
tanning any water to work with.
The house was apparently composed
of two parts, the cottage portion referred
to, and a more pretentiOus two-story
section adjoining. How the fire origin
ated could not be satisfactorily aseer-
tanned; but it was confined entirely to
the lower structure during its early stage,
thus allowing the furniture in the other
part to be saved in a great measure. No
%effectual effort could be Inadgurated for
the suppression of the flames, and the
spectators, who became more numerous
with every minute, could do nothing but
leok on while the wild flames Tapped
round the window sashes, doors and
carnices, sending up columns of smoke
aud bright tongues of fire to the sky.
The flames were immense. 1t was ter
rife what 5 conflagration was made of
that dwelling! The burning occupied
just n ehour and a half, at the end of
which time there was nothing left but a
heap of red cinders.
The building was insured. The loss it
ssaid will amount to about ten thousand
dollars.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Memphis Theater.


In common with all other interests,
that Of our theaters has suffered from 3
dependency which has been more gen
eraI this season than during that ever
of 81. The result has been, that though
the managers have made unusual exer-
tons, and have expended a great deal
OF money, every week almost has wit
messed failure, and if it continue to the
close, Memphis can claim to have had
a season Of amusement without exam
pie in the annals of the city, and at a
cost to the several managements of more
than they can make in profit in the next
two years, even though they should be
a. unprecedentedly successful a they
have so far been unsuccessful. This ought
to be remembered by our citizens, who
should make an effort to throw off the
Indifference for theatricals that has
characterized them, and make the re-
mainder of the season remunerative.
At the Memphis we are this week to
have The Streets Of Ne1g York and
Foul Play, in both Of which Mr..
Charles Pope will make his appearance.
The former is a sensational piece, and
one Of the best of its class, and the lat
ter viii be found to absorb the attention
of the spectator from the first to the
closing scene. Such a programme
ought not fail to draw well, and we hope
to be able to chronicle the fact that it
did not. 1
