heart. Her medical attendant, DR.. Z. A.
White, states that to-day the unfortunate
is suffering from hemorrhage and inaam-

A friend suggests that series Of reso'
lutions should be presented to him on
board the Great Republic, thanking him
for visiting the Bluffs, and inviting him
to become a resident Of the city and run
for office. It must not be forgotten to
mention the fact that the Republic (not
the steamer) 10 grateful to his paternal
ancestor for sympathizing with the North
during the late war. As it has been
done in ten other cities, resolution
must be presented thanking Russia for
liberating the serfs. He must be invited
to dance with every blonde and brunette
beauty of our city, and shake hands
with every "old duffer" and young
blood" Inviting him to a saloon to
take drink would be a diplomat
ic way of inducing the tall Russian
to untelescope himself and give
his opinion on gas, water-works, the
Lydia Thompson blondes and the beau
ties of Memphis. No one will be ex-
pected to call him Romanoff or
"Aleck," the phrase "Your Highness, "
or mon Prince" being more democrat
ic and au fat. If you can sling in a
few words of Russian, about the taking
of Ismail by Suwarrow, or the partition
of Poland, do it. Byall means ask after
the health of the family, especially that
of the Czar-he will like it,. The ladies
who dance with the prince are expected
to take advantage of leap year and carry
on quiet Irritation during the progress
of the sets. No gentleman is expected
to handle the young bears paw without
gloves during that gyration known as
the grand chain" If the Grand Duke
presents you with diamond pin or
ring, take it, and, like Oliver Twist, ask
Immediately - for more" Although it
is generally known that Alexis is only a
navy lieutenant, it would be a fine stroke
of policy and hattering to his vanity to
call him Colonell"

Ths secret Of CaptIvation.

Features of Grecian mould, we'll
turned neck and beautifully rounded
arms, are no doubt very nice things to
have, and ladies who possess these
charms have reason to be thankful to
Mother Nature; yet, after all, the most
captivating Of all womanly charms is a
pure, fresh and brilliant complexion.
This superlative fascination any lady
may secure by using Hagan's Magnolia
Balm, the standard identifying prepare
ton of the present age. 1t differs from
all ordinary cosmetics in three most
essential particulars, inasmuch as it con-
tains no injurious ingredients, does not
contract or shrivel the skin as all the
astringent blooms" lotions" and
powders eventually do, but produces
a lasting loveliness BY improving the
health Of the skin. Under its operation
the texture of the epidermis becomes

smooth as porcelain. Features cannot
be changed, but eomplexiOns can, and it
is quite certain that lady With no other
charm than q fresh and rosy complexion,
will attract more admiration in com
pany than her neighbor with a classic
face but a sallow skin. llS-eod-dAW

MEMPHIS. TENN. January 10. 1872. !
Monetary affairs during the week have been
quiet. The supply of currency has been in
excess of the demand, and not until toward
the close Of the week did the banks begin to
find employment for the vast amounts held,
then the advanced price Of the staple and
increased transactions assisted somewhat to
relieve them. Illustrative Of this fact. We
would state that 1855, 900 was paid out by the
principal banks up to noon to-day on cotton
bills. The demand for accommodations Is
light and promptly met at the usual rates.
Exchange is in better supply at u to Nc dis
count buying on Eastern points. sight and
demand, and 80 discount selling. New Or
leans bills are taken at Il to &c discount, and
in checking on that point the rates are q to
Nc premium, with exceptions Mt par.
Gold is bought at 1854, and in New York
the rate is l0S1s.
Local securities are somewhat frmer, and
prices have advanced somewhat since our
last weekly review. First National bank
stock is quoted at 81 so, Memphis sas-light
stock, 81 so. Arkansas levee bonds. in sums
of $1,000 to 5000 at 25c, but for larger amounts
holders are firm at SOC. There are some $780,
900 or 100000 upon the market at the latter
rate. with a fair prospect Of realization
by the holders before the close of the week.
City securities are held firmly at 60c fer the
currency bonds. and 6ic for the gold issue.
County warrants are strong at % 10 CSC
buying and selling. Selma railroad scrip is
sold at 95c. Memphis and Charleston
stock is nominally 80 to 40c. Tennessee
