The Cfrcns YeAterdnY,

Undoubtedly the Queen City Circus is
the lest that has visited Nashville for
many years. Most exhibitions of like ma
ture are but q repetition of the company
that may have preceded them. There is a
samenesS about all of their performances
that one grows weary of seeing and hearing
the self-same jokes Of the clown, and al
most stere0typed copy of each act ; but
with Mike Lipm2n's great circus there is a
change. The management has incorporat-
ed many new, startling and pleasing fea-
lures that are original with the "Queen City
"CTcus," and we cheerfully render our
verdict Of approval of the manner in which
their great show is conducted. The stock
is deserving Of being called as good as any
we have ever seen, while the performers
are all first-cIass in the separate duties as
signed them. Madame Tournaire and her
thoroughbred equine are far above the Or
binary, while the Madame's act du nendge
proves her to be az fat as a hOrSe1UOmdn.
SerOrita Palmyra is beautiful and pleasing,
and by her grace and modesty Immediately
made herself favCrite with the audience.
Mile. Zitella introduced to us an act that
was novel and really wonderful, and assist
ed by the Verilli Bros, fairly amazed her
beholders. Aliaco and Ball are wonderful,
and their act is really startling and sensa-
tional. We have never before heard of a
somersault being accomplished in mid-air
from trapeze to the ground. Nichols act
is pleasing, and his little boy is an infant
wonder. OF the clowns, johnson differs
from all we have ever seen. He is at home
everywhere, and with him nothing
seems impossible, while in his par
thar role he displays great wit
without vulgarity, while Johnny Wilcox
keeps his hearers in a continual roar of
laughter by his irrepressible antics and
quaint sayings. But the bright particular
feature of the great show, is charming,
pleasing, pretty little Matte Brown. This
child is indeed a wonder; her ease, grace
and daring are inimitable; in fact, she is a
wonderful rider, and we believe we have
never seen her equal. No one should miss
the opportunity of witnessing this child.
This company has with them a special fea-
ture in the way of lights, having consum-
mated arrangements with the inventor,
they are using Kidd'S patent gas, which illu-
inmates brilliantly their spacious tent. They
give two performances tO-day-this after
noon and tonight.

Amendc HOnOrRhle.

In speaking of the premiums awarded at
the baby show to the twins, (of Mrs. Vir-
ginia Payne) whose father had been killed
a short while ago, we remarked that "may
the murderer never meet the eyes of these
innocent children" This remark has done
great injustice, unintentionally on our part,
10 very worthy and peaceable old gentle
man, whose misfortune it was
to accidentally kill the father of
these children. He threw a
stick Of wood out of the car and it acciden-
tally struck Mr.. Payne on the head produc-
ing injuries that terminated fatally. We
regret to have said anything that would
tend to criminate an honest gentleman,
who was in feeling and intention SO far from
injuring the deceased. The coruners Jury
exonerated this gentleman from all
blame, and we trust the remark of ours
has not been IN any way injurious.

Threatening Letter.

Yesterday morning well known colored
man named Thomas Rouss, employed as a
fireman in the round house at the Chatta-
nooga depot, received an anonymous letter,
threatening in its character, and insisting
upon his leaving the city. The letter COM
mences by referring to the fact that he,
Rouss, had stated ''that he knew seven men
in the shops who had assisted in dragging
Jones, the negro prisoner, from the Jail,
and afterwards helped to hang him, and if
he was paid enough money he would reveal
their Names" ROuss is represented as
quiet, industrious, inofensive man, who
has always attended strictly to his business,
without interfering with any one else. He
originally came from Murfreesboro, where
he is well known, and has been employed
by the Chattanooga Railroad Company for
several years. As his bearing all the time
has been UnexceptiOnable, it is supposed
the letter was written by some one who is
anxious to get him TO leave, with the hope
of supplanting him in bis situation.

THE enterprise lately inaugurated by the

great success. The Board of Managers is
composed of gentlemen of the very highest
standing in the community, therefore the
greatest confidence is felt in the integrity

Our citizens are doubly interested in for

of this opinion, so far as has come to my
