OPE.NIse OF THE EXPOSITION TO


Tonight the great Exposition build
ing win be open for the season. The
mammoth structure viii fairly blaze
with light, and glow in the magic splen-
dors of the thousand things of beauty
which are gathered under its roof The
opening viii be the grandest demonstra-
ton of the kind ever witnessed in the
southwest. The largest throng Of FASH
ionsble ladies ever gathered together in
Memphis, win be present, and the
crowds of citizens congregated there
viii make the arched aisles, galleries,
balconies ard promenades, gay with
life, and radiant with hope of better
and bright er future for Memphis. Ev-
erybody who can go, should make it q
point to give eclat to the grand opening
to-nig nt. This exposition is peculiarly
Me mphis, home institution. Its sue
cess can but enhance the material pros
pc ity of Memphis. The men to whose
e nergy and enterprise we owe its crea-
zion, and to whose pertinacity, indom-
stable pluck and fidelity, we owe its
resuscitation so soon after the terrible
calamity through which our city has
passed, deserve, independently of all
else, that the Exposition should be made
a splendid success. But il is one Of the
great features of civic life in Memphis,
and is so linked with the prosperity Ct
cur city that to patronize 1t becomes q
duty in every citizen. Itisa most laudable
enterprise. 1t caters TO the higher and
better qualities of our nature. 1t is viT-
tUally noble TEMPLE devoted to the
study, the worship, if you will, of art,
of science, and of the glorious triumphs
OF intellect over inert matter. 1t sp-
peals to no base passion, excites no i'm
pure thought, panders TO no prejudice
of party or of sect. 1t is, or should be,
the grest intellectual focal center of the
city, radiating scientific instruction,
imparfing knowledge, and at the same
time affording q pleasing and amusing
excitement TO the visitor. Here the
father can take his son, the |
mother her daughter, and spend a |
morning or an evening in delightful
and improving occupation, leaving its
clas sic walls better, purer, and wiser,
for the experience. But it is en-
pb Rtically our duty to sustain this grand
nluseum at this time. Memphis is ike
a, man just recovered from a bed of
sickness, almost from a bed of death.
She needs stimulants. Her people need
to meet together and clasp hands in
thankfulness for their delivery from the
plague-pledging renewed fealty to her
interests, renewed hope and confidence
in her future. To meet as citizens-ss
men and women bound together by a
common tie of interest and of faith.
Beneath the light of the chandeliers of
the Exposition, amid the hum of voices,
the sweet notes Of melody, the sheen Of
fountains, and the crOwding thoughts
suggested by exquisite works of art,
of usefulness and of beauty collect
ed there it viii be well for our
people TO meet, and spread the gar
lands of sorrowful mercy on the past,
and plant the rose Of hope for the fu-
tUre. Let everybody go tonight to the
Exposition.

We heartily indorse the action OF the
board Of school-visitors, yesterday, in
the matter Of paying the school-teachers
for time lost during the epidemic. The
statement Of the case by the teachers
was plain, Straightforward, and to the
point, and, we think, unanswerable.
There is such thing ss economy, and
Of penny-wise and pound-foolish policy.
We are glad TO say the board, while &C

BY the latter spirit, and they wisely
concluded to do what every fair-minded

connection With the Vienna exposition;
the Guard, ON the same service; the
Kansas, recently returned from the
Nicaragua survey, the Frolie, the flag

aud the TaIlapoosa, used as 8 transport.
Vessels on the return to the United
States were as follows: Colorado, Ply

Michigan was on the lakes, and all the
others not accounted In the
above were In various ports of
the country "for repairs" in

as receiving, practice or store ships. 1t
will be seen from the above that the ma

ninety-twO vessels altogether, of which
sixtv-three are iron and twenty-niDe
wooden vessels. OF the whole number,
the names of those that are on foreign
stations, stations have been given;
TWENTY-FIVE are in the harbors of the
country, put to various uses, and about
twenty-five might be made available for
service in periods ranging from two to
four months. The Kansas, carrying
three guns, is now at the Brooklyn
nayy-yard, with the Juniata, the Pow
batan and the Tigress. The first named
is ready for sea, bat the ether two will
require weeks, perhaps, in which to fit
them for service. The Juniata, pro-
peller, carrying eight guns, might be
got ready in a few days. 1t is said at
the BROOKLYN navy-yard that the twelve
monitors at League Island, carrying
two fifteen-inch guns each, are ready
for use, and that they are sufficient to
protect every harbOr in the United
States. Orders from Washington are
to the effect that the iron-clad Manhat-
tan, which is a screw vessel of five hun
dred and fifty tons, carrying two guns,
be fitted for sea. 1t is now at the Phila- |
delphia navy-yard. The Mahopac, a
sister monitor is also there, and has been
ordered to join the North Atlantic
squadron. The following is the number
of ships in the different squadrons:

quenee of an act very aimilar to the ex-
ecution Of Ryan and bis companions.
An English ship was 0verhauled by a
Spanish man-of-war and two Carlist Of
iicers taken from her and summarily
shot, after q dIumhead court-martial.
The government of Queen Isabella
treated the CaFlists as traitors, and had,
from the outbreak OF the rebellion, shot
all prisoners captured. The Cariists re-
taliated, and the war was one OF brutal
ferocity on both sides. The execution
of the two officers taken from the Brit
Ish ship reused the British ministry into
action. With the assent of the other
parties to the tripartite alliance-Franee
and Portugal--LOrd Eliot was sent TO
Spain, and he made convention be-
tween the Madrid government and the
Carlist chiefs, which, without recog-
nizing the belligerency Of the latter,
bound both to respect the rules of civ
ilized warfare, and put an immediate
stop to the murder of prisoners. Pro-
vision was made for the regular ex-
change of prisoners. The terms OF the
convention were adhered to until the
war ended, in 1889.

FISHING WITH F.RoG.-A well-known am
ateur fisherman, who is very fond of the sport,
concluded, upon his last visit to the Cumber-
land, to try what virtue there was in a young
frog for bait, feeling confident that he would
be able to drawin catfish Of huge proportions.
The gentleman who was his partner in the fish
ing business, after getting several good nibbles,
succeeded in landing safely on the bank good
sized drum. Half an hour probably elapsed
and the man with the frog had no indications
of bite and he suggested to his friend that
his new baitiwas about to prove failure. "Did
your,frog have green ~ asked his part
ner Yes" responded the man with the frog.
H'Perhaps that is your frog" as he pointed to
one on the bank. And sure enough, upon ex-
