Counterfeit Ont.

Speer's Port Grape Wine has been counter
feited in Peoria, ILL.,, by some persons who style
themselves Spier 81 Co. We caution the pub
lie against the trash put in these bottles. The
bottles are very similar in general appearance
to Speer's Port Wine of New Jersey. Persons
can easily discover the difference by observing
" Peoria" on the label instead of "Passaic, N.
J.," and by noting that theslgnature of Alfred
Speer, N. j., is over the cork of each bottle of
the genuine.

The SchOeppe Case was brought to a
sudden close on Saturday last On Friday
evening the evidence was concluded and
the counsel gave notice that they would
allow the case to go to the jury, without

the jury which was done at o'clock, on
Saturday morning, and after an absence of
eleven minutes the jury brought in ver-
dict of acquittal, g7
This has been one Of the most singular
cases on record, having been before the
public for about four years. AT one time
after the first trial, and before an order was
obtained for rehearing of the case, an
order for his execution was daily looked for
and his coffin was prepared and the rope
was made ready. And now he again walks

great uncertainties In law.

Sad Case Of DrOWnlng.-Little Willie
steidle, only four years of age, was drown
ed in the river half mile below this place
on Saturday afternoon. He was in slsiff
with his father Jacob steidle, and another
German, named Kaylor, on their way TO the
residence Of the latter near Bixler's Gap,
when somehow or other which neither Of
the men seem able to explain, the little
fellow fell out and was drowned, neither of
the men 1t seems having the power to save
him in deep water. His body was not re-
covered for several hours afterward. Re-
port says the men had keg of lager beer
In the boat and were both drunk. But we
would fain disbelIeye the story. II is true,
however, that the mother had begged the
father not to take the little boy along but
her entreaties were In vain.---L Lseistown

ANNUAL REUNION.
How Men who Deserve TO Flourish
Treat Their Employees.

1t has been she custom at the Chicka-
saw foundry, Randle q Heath, pFoprie-
tors, to have an annual reunion. On
Saturday evening the sweet affair took
place for 1872. The gentlemen who own
the foundry were present, mixing up
with their men, every one of whom
they know by name. Cheerful ale and
cigars, wine and other beverages enliv-
ened the occasion. The foundry is II
of the most fiOurishing in the city. 1t
was in wreck during the war, and after
that destructive disturbance the present
~proprietors went into the business with
no money, but plenty Of friends and en-
ergy. They managed affairs so well
that every months experience added to
their means. Being practical men, who
pay close attention TO their business,
they invariably give entire satisfaction
in every job they do, consequently work
constantly Increases with them. Nearly
w years ago the concern was enlarged
so that the original twenty-men capac-
ity was quadrupled. There are now
about ninety hands engaged, andat pres
n there are orders in Tor over fifty tons
of fine castings for buildings going up
in the city. They are full of business.
Everything is so well managed that no
confusion ever occurs, and their calcula-
tons are always so precise that no de-
lays or mistakes occur. Their men are
so attached to them, through commu-
nifty of interest and feeling, that they
feel as anxious about the success of
every undertaking as the proprietors.
The merry-making Saturday afternoon
showed what state of things ought to
everywhere, and illustrated for
chilly the way in which industrial enter
prise ia the South may be made to sue
coed. The foundry is on Second street,
at the intersection of Winchester.

T
Portrait Of A. p. Curry by a Friendly
Hand.

Hand.
MEMPHIS, TENN, July II, 1872.
EDITORS APPEAL-HOw far friend
ship and gratitude should prompt me to
answer statements made against Colonel
A. P. Curry which know to be incor-
rect, I have not considered; but as one
who has been often befriended by him,
l feel it a duty to make the following
statement:
[ have known Colonel A. P. Curry
since 1862. He vas at that time a Cap
tain in the Tenth Missouri cavalry-a
white regiment. He enlisted as a pri-
vate in the Thirteenth Illinois (white)
regiment, and was promoted for gal
lantry as Captain in the above named
cavalry. While Captain he was bre-
vetted as Lieutenant-ColOne for gal
lantry. He retained his position as Cap
tain in said Tenth Missouri cavalry I'M
til he resigned in 1864. This was the
only official position he held during
the war. After his resignation he COM
menced business in Memphis, and
was appointed Colonel of the first regi-
ment of the Memphis militia, a white
regiment, composed of the business men
and mechanics of Memphis. In no way
was Colonel Curry connected with any
other military command. During the
war his efforts were to make the burden
as light upon the Southern people as
possible, and discharge what he consid-
cred to be his duty. Ny own experience
is but the experience of several Others
as regards to Colonel Curry. As to
myself, l was arrested three several
times as a rebel citizen-Once for oppOs-
ing the United States Government, once
as a secession guard'' to go on a rail-
road train to protect it from being fired
into, and nee as an enemy outside of
the lines, and paid fine of five hundred
dollars. I mention the charges, as it
was impOlitic at that day for Federal
soldiers or citizens to aid people charged
with such offenses. Colonel Curry,
however, in all those cases, acted as a
friend, and with Others secured my re-
lease, and he did the same thing for
several other citizens well known as
sympathiZers of the South.
When Colonel Curry was Sheriff of
county l was with him i'll the
office. He gave me instructions to be-
friend the citizens of Memphis as re-
CARDS to business with the office in any
way that l could, and properly discharge
the duties of the same. 1t was his own
rule of action. As far as I know he
used his Office in a political way,
by importing voters or otherwise, and
l fully believe that heidi no such thing.
While he YVES Sheriff I know that an
effort was made to send for the "Ten-
militia to quarter them in Shell
by county, for alleged characterization
at COllierville, Cuba, etc. know that
Colonel Curry wrote letters and went to
Nashville to prevent it, and I believe
that it was through the efforts of him
as Sheriff that the misfortune was
averted.
This much 1 have felt it duty to say.
My only regret is that it should bring
my name before the public. Yours, re-
5pectfully, A. }. WHEELER.

"MENS COBSCIA RECFL."

MEMPHIS, TENN, June Is, 1872.
EDITORS APPEAL-Tn the APPEAL of
yesterday there appeared as an illustra-
ton part of the anecdote of the mems
cOnsctG rect sign. If it is worth while
to give it in full, here it is: Two rival
shOemakers were trying to get ahead Of
each other. One of them asked a young
lawyer of his acquaintance to give him
some motto or sign that might take the
wind out of his rivals sails. The result
was that the next day appeared i'm gilt
letters "James Smith, Shoemaker.
Mems cORscid Tecti.r His store was
crowded, his rivals empty. But in the
of two or three days the opposite
was decorated as follows: TAdam
Brown, Shoemaker. Mems and WomeRis
cOnscid recti." And the tide was turned.
Bat Smith was not beaten vet. His
sign was improved thus: MEMS, 100
and chitdren's cOnscid recti." The
tide vas again at the flood, and Brown
vas deserted. He was about to yield to
his destiny, when he became inspired
and thus he conquered: MEMS, tOomen's
and children'S cOnscid rect, and other
nOtiOns.n Smith sold out and went to
Texas.

SENATORIAL.
Letter from EnOeb EnsIey-His Post
ton ON National and Local
Questions.


WAsuINoToN, July II. iST2.
To the people Of Memphis:
The Memphis papers containing the
call upon me to announces myself a can-
didate for State Senator, have been re-
ceived. As the names to the call num-
Der five hundred citizens Of Memphis,
and represent very largely the various
departments of business interests, l
think it due to them and to myself
to address, in a public manner the vO-
tiers of Shelby county. I regret that 1
am absent from home, because / prefer
to speak face to face with the people.
But l left home to attend the Baltimore
Convention, as u delegate from the
Memphis Congressional District, as you
all know. The illness of my wife will
make it impossible for me to be in Mem
phis in time to take a personal part in
the primary election of the twentieth of
July. Hence / take the liberty of send
ing for publication this short address.
As TO national politics L have this to
say: / voted for Greeley in the State
Convention mt Nashville, held early in
June; Ivoted for Greeley at Baltimore,
and win vote for him in November.
But a State Senator representing Shelby
county, and in the General Assembly OF
the State. will have TO deal directly with
State and county matters, and not with
Federal legislation. And hence 1 deem
it proper in advance, TO give an outline
of the general measures which / will
support if elected q State Senator:
First-I shall advocate and vote for
the calling of a Constitutional COnven-
ton to change and amend the present
defpcfiVa OrpaUic law
Second shall advocate and vote for
a better and stronger mechanics lien
law.
Third shall advocate and vote for
a thorough system of free schools.
FOURTH shall advocate and vote for
as low taxation as the necessities of the
State government will permit, and a
revenue bill just to all classes.
These are the important questions and
measures which / think will have to be
met by the members of the Legislature.
l have expressed my views frankly. If
you think that 1 am right, l ask your
support; but if you think l am wrong,
| still desire to retainyOur good opinion.
Respectfully, ENOCH ENsLEY.
