long while will be seen there next Mon
day when Manager Cole spreads his i'm

modate half the ladies and children Of

tie fellows, thought They always do
enjoy circus, and 1T would be cruel
not to give them an opportunity next
week when the big menagerie comes.
THEATRcAL.-The Memphis Theater
will not open next week, as heretofore
announced, partially on account of the
weather, which is considered yet too
warm. For the present the exact time
of its opening is undetermined, but due
notice will be given by the management.

mentioning was $500 Memphis and Ohio

of Memphis and Charleston railroad

whom the offer was made having until

this morning we learn Of most distress
ing accident, the victim OF which is a
most estimable young man OF this city
now in Huntsville, Ala. The young
man, Newt. Humes son of General
Humes, Of this city, was, it appears, out
hunting, accompanied by negro boy,
to whom be had given his gun, double
barreled shotgun, to carry. By some
means or other, while the two were close
together, the gun was discharged, the
contents taking effect in Master Humes'
eyes and head. The wound is not
ne ces sarily fatal, but one Of Mr.. Humes
eyes is destroyed, and possibly the other
General Humes started out to see his
son this morning, but missed the train,
and will not be able to get away before
