The following circular has been issued by
the st. Andrews Society of Memphis:
To Scotcbmen The " Shoulder to

The Late Alfred RnxiIIa.

In noticing the death of Alfred Saville,
telegraph operator at Shreveport, La, few
days since we stated that he was he opera
tor connected with John Morgan's COM
mAnd during the war, and whose exploits
were so much talked of at that time. We
find that in this we were mistaken, George
Ellsworth being the name of Morgan's op-
orator. Ellsworth is still living and is one of
four brothers, all of whom are first class OPP
orators.
After the war he became somewhat noto-
rious and was mixed up in q couple of
scrapes which caused reward to be offered
for him. He was in Nashville month or
two since.

Nashville, Chattanooga and ST. Louis
Railway shops.


The monetary panic, the suspensions,
the failures, the revulsioDs and the smash
ms generally, have been damaging to the
railroad interests of the country, and the
decrease in transportation OF frelghts is no
where more visible than here. 10 conse-
ouence of the unsettled condition of affairs,
a large number of men have been thrown
ont of employment on all lines centering
here, and the shops Of the Nashville, Chat
tapooea and st. Louis railway have been
thinued out considerable. But notwith-
standing the necessity for reducing the
heavy force usually employed, there re-
mains large number of men in the differ
ent shops of this company, and great deal
of work is being done. There are now
thirty-eiRht fine engines in the
roupd- house, ready to 60 out
at a moments notice, not to say any
thing of those in use on the road. While
these reserve engines are kept in perfect Or
der. other engines are being repaired, and
others being built over again. There are
three or four locomotives nearly in finish
ed condition that have been built entire at
these shops, and which for finish and ap-
pearance viii compare with the very test
manufactured elsewhere. On ali passenger
engines the patent air brakes are being ap-
piled, and in q very short time thsre will
not be an engine owned by this company
that is not supplied with this great improve
ment aud wonderful invention. The ma
chine shopsEcontinue in full bl ST, the NAM
molh engines that run the machinery are
still at work, the old familiar fees are to
ba seen at the head of the different depart
ments, and iothiug so far in that locality
smacks of suspension or anything like it.

WHEN Andrew Jackson was President he
discovered that the United States Bank was
10 a rotten condition, and be at once re-
moved the public deposits and saved the
peoples money. President Grant, finding
Law Cookers national bank in falling con-
dition, at once withdrew his $4,000 and
had it sent elsewhere in tin box, but paid
no attention to the $4,000 of public funds
deposited in that institution. He gave no
thought of the peoples money, of which he
is a Il ustee, but thought only of securing
his own dollars. This is only one example
of his entire official career. He is for self,
first, foremost, and all the time.-Ne'o
