Of all the editors we least expected
to sec in our sanctum, W. r. Mead, OF
the Crcsco PLAIN DEALER is the one,
the rankcst, most unterriied of all the
Democratic editors we ever knew or
heard of. But, he don't seem to be 50
bad man; really, we had no use for
pistols in his presence. Big as he is,
he is the person:Gcation of good nature,
and in that respect is the very opposite
of what he writes in his paper. He was
here on legal business, and hope he may
find time to come this way again soon.

A CHALLENGES,

! now offer challenge to run my horse
Wild Pipin a race, mile heats, best three
in five, against horse that any has made the
season of 1872, in Howard or any adjoining
counties.
Tn reason why make this challenge is
that great many farmers want to see him
run, and do not want to put him in train
unless l have him matched for two hundred
dollars or more. The race will be run two
months from the day he is matched. This
challenge will be held open until the LIST of
July.

The first car of the Jefferson street
line ran over that track this morning to
the Charleston depot and back. The
car was built at the Memphis city rail-
way shops, and is one of the handsomest
in the city, attracting much attention as
it passed along the street, and receiving
very generally favorable comment for
its beautiful workmanship. Superin-
tendent Barrett informs us that the new
style track on Jefferson street has
proven very satisfactory, and it will prob
ably supercede the old style on the
other streets. From this time hence-
forward cars will run regularly over the
Jefferson street track via the Memphis
Theater and Exposition building to the
Charleston depot. bi ar,I 700 ir

SENSATION IN THE OLD PosToFFIcE.
This morning the old Postoffice building
on Jefferson street was the scene of a
frst-class sensation. About daylight,
cries as of child in peril were heard
about the building, and search for the
suffering little innocent was at once in
stituted. Some one going near the sink
heard the cries more distinctly, and upon
further investigation it was found that
the cries proceeded from the bottom of
the vault. The fact at once became evil
dent that, some heartless mother, to
cover her shame, had thrown her new
born babe in the sink to stihe its cries
forever. By, this time the cries became
louder and more pitiful, and number of
sympathizing men and women gathered
around, hardly knowing what todo. A
messenger was dispatched to the station
house, and very soon Sergeant Arrata,
accompanied by two members of the
sanitary police, reached the spot and at
once began their efforts for the recovery
of the now almost sufocated child,
After an earnest aud excited endeavor
the rescue was effected, and the large
crowd, officers and all, gazed upon a
three months old kitten, the object of
all their sympathy and search. -h 4

THE CALIGRAPHIC ARTIST.


Adventures Of a Nice voung Man.
Sometime ago very respectable look
ing man was arrested as vagrant and
assigned to duty on the chain-gang, in
default Of payment Of fine Of fifty dol
lars. A few days thereafter he wrote a
most touching appeal to Chief Of Police
Athy, promisingto go to work and be-
have himself in future, If released from
the Changing. He stated in that letter
most beautifully written and published
in the LEDGER at the time, that he was a
caligraphic artist and commanded from
five to seven dollars per day when at
work, but that of late he had allowed
drink TO gain the mastery over hims and
hence his degraded position on the
chaiu-gang. Touched by the appeal of
one in trouble, Captain Athy secured his
release and told him to leave liquor alone
and go on his way rejoicing. With pro
fuse thanks and promises, the cali
graphic artist, c. H. West by name,
left the service of, the city. A few
days thereafter West was returned
to the station,house in a state Of
beastly INVESTIGATION, and when brought
up before iotbe Recorder, West de-
clared to his Honor that he was a
brute past all, redemption, and 1t was
useless to spare him any longer. The
next day West shouldered his broom
and went out with light heart, appai
rently, to assist the chain-gang in sweep
ing the streets Before noon, however,
West took French leave, and battling his
pursuers made his escape to the coun-
try, where he engaged to pick cotton for
j. c. Timnons, farmer living five
miles north Of Bartlett. While at Mr..
Timmon's, West distinguished himself
by exhibitions of his skill as an artist,
and had almost left the impression that
he was disguised nobleman when he
suddenly skipped off, taking with him
that gentleman's entire wardrobe and a
pair of pistols. He was also mindful of
the approaching cold weather, and APP
propriated shawl. Information Of the
theft was left with the Chief of Police,
and efforts were made for his capture,
but West was sharp enough to give Mem
phis wide berth.

aeIf people would more thoroughly un-

is very often the case, or if the stamp is

During the storm of Tuesday night
the lightning struck the frame dwell
ing on Georgia street, near the bluff,
owned by Mr.. J, W. Vernon, a we'll
known lawyer of this city At the time
of the crash, two ladies, Mrs. March and
Mrs. Shay, we're sitting in the house,
and though considerably stunned, were
not seriously hurt A little child,
six weeks old, was, however, com
pletely deafened by the shock, and
has since been unable to hear any sound
whatever. The house was shattered to
splinters, and, strange to say, every nail
in the walls was torn out aud carried no
one knows whittier. The clothes that
we're hung on nails driven in the wall
dropped to the floor, but the nails mys-
teriOusly disappeared, and none of them
have yet been discovered.
