FOR RENT

This label is still on great many oil
our houses in the city, and is likely to
remain on some all winter, because the
owners demand higher rates than the
working or business classes can afford
TO pay. The advertising columns OF the
CITY papers indicate that property own
ers have more difficulty than usual in
finding tenants who will agree to their
terms. Many hold out for the pound OF
flesh or nethiug They want to make
from ten to fifteen per cent. clear profit
on the original investment, regardless
of the fact that gold has tumbled from
ll2 to log since the panic began in
New York; cotton has fallen from 20
20 u or IA; pork has dropped from SIG
70 sls uer barrel; bacon from 10 to 6
cents, and many other articles of prime
necessity in proportion. The price of
labor and the profits of ordinary bust
ness decline accordingly, and tenants
cannot afford to pay war prices or even
last years prices Cor anything they use

NEW YoRK, November 10Th,

time Of her arrival at st. Johns have
already been published. She left ST.
Johns on the morning Of the 10th ult-
Those on board are in excellent health

ton on the voyage from st. JONAS to
New York Captain Tyson said that at
the time Of Halls death there was a
good deal said on board Of the Polaris
about poisoning. When il was FIRST sug-
gested it set all hands wondering
whether there was anything in it or not.
The rumor was started before Hall body
was cold. Tyson said: Buddington
came in and called me out of the cabin,
and said: Don't you say anything
about it to anybody but that Dutch
doctor, old Besel, has poisoned the old
man. toldhim didn't believe it. Bud
dington said again, Yes he did, d-n
him. know it, >" Buddington afterward
cautioned Tyson and Morton to look out
for Besel, and if they we're not careful
Besel would poison them too. Tyson's
opinion was that Besel did not poison
Hall. Besel and Hall did not get along
we'll together, but did not think Besel had
anything to do with it if Hall was pois-
oned. What Hall impaired to Joe and
Hannah, Tyson regards as only the raw
ings of delirium. During the latter part
of his sickness Hall could not bear to
have Buddington near him, and Heron,
the steward, said he saw Buddington
seize and choke Hall because he would
not sign some papers. Tyson thought |
the papera might have been docupents
transferring the command TO Budding
ton. Hall at one time entertained the
idea of turning over the command to
Buddington.

KIND WORDS.

Some weeks ago the Ledger expressed
the hope that the people OF the country
for several hundred miles around who
had been SO generous in their contribu-
tons would be liberal in proportion with
their trade. Several papers have taken
up the idea, among others the Ripley
News which in its issue of the 18th says:
The Memphis refugees have com
menced returning home, and things are
berinning to wear u brighter aspect IN
that city. Memphis has suffered fear
fully and it will take her some time to
fully recuperate, but her citizens are too
plucky to lose much time in useless re.
mining. and will go to work to rebuild
their shattered fortunes. We cordially
endorse the suggestion of Mississippi
contemporary, that it is the duty OF the
merchants in the country contiguous to
Memphis to assist her business men all
they can by giving them trade In al
most every line Memphis merchants can
offer inducements equal if not superior
TO the inducements offered by the mer-
chants in more distant cities, and their
claims should certainly be considered by
the dealers of West Tennessee. II not
elsewhere.

bottom, We are glad 10 hear that the
exodus has commenced, not from any
i'll will or hostility to the negroes, but
because we see no way by which they
can live here the coming winter. We
have been satisfied for several months
past-in fact since the failure Of the
crops became a certainty. that the only
salvation for the negroes in this section
was in the immigration Of large num-
bers Of them. Time has but strength
ened that conviction, and it is now as
clear to US as that two and three make
five.
