A BARK ATTACKED By A WHALE. The
bark Kate " illlsns, Cant. Hale Of the regu-
Oar packet line betwesn Boston and Fayal,
which arrived At Boston, had remarkable es-
cape on her passage.
The Boston Journal thus describes the Incl
dent; .
about nine o'clock one morning a seaman
aloft cried out that there was whale on the
port bow. Capt. Hale stepped to the port quar-
ter and almost Immediately could have laid
his hands upon the upper jaw Of sperm
whale, which paid an unwecome visit TO the
vessel.
\ 1t was q COW whale about sixty feet In length,
which had set upon them, and had she struck
1 the vessel little further under, the vessel
| would probably never have been heard from
| alter leaving Fsyal. As it was, the vessel re-
ceived pretty good shock, and lost portion
of her mizzen channels. The monster had seen
| the bark about the time the sailor discovered
her, for she Immediately sunk and came up
with great force right at the vessels STERN
| Capt. Hale thinks her mouth measured at
least fifteen feet, and her under jaw was felt 70
/ scrape the bottom OF the vessel US she glided
away from her unexpected enemy. The whale
| Jared as badly as the bark, no doubt, Tor the
quarterback was covered with pieces of the
| leviathah's outer skin aud the "mud" that |:
found between it and the tougher hide. The
Kate Williams was sailing rapidly at the time
and in about fifteen minutes the fish was ou
of sight. While the latter could be seen SHIT
appeared swimming about looking for the ves-
sci, and evidently in rage"

SINFUL SETTINGS.

Frank Carter, the negro who slashed an
other with his little knife in such an I'M
ceremOnious manner, Thursday night, was
fined $50 and sent to the workhOuse by
Judge Duling yesterday.
JEFF Turner, colored, was fined ten dollars
on account of the rude manner he adopted
in recOnStrUcting his wife.
A couple of respectable white men were
before the court, one charged with assault
ing the other with a pistol, No. > being ac-
cused of Tetaliating 10y flourishinga hatchet
about in very lively style. They both
swore they were only in fun, and, although
the court was of the opinion that that was
strange kind fun for a couple of law
abiding citizens to indulge in, they We're
released for want of proof against them.
David Wilson, a colOred hackman made
his bow to the judge as a prisoner yester-
day morning, for the fourth time since
Christmas, (and February was a short
month, you Tenlember.) He was accused
this time of having used profane and abu-
sive language at the Chattanooga depot, in
the presence Of passengers who had just
come in on the train. Among these pas
sengers was party from Philadelphia, who,
after hearing the red hat OathS which roll
ed from Wilson's mouth, like smoke from
locomotive smoke-stack, asked, with
blanched cheeks and hair standing on end,
if there was any law in this section, and
if Wilson was fair sample of the Nash
vile hack drinker. He was fined SIS, and
sent down to the workhOuse.
Emma Sadler was fined s. for aSsaulting
another woman, and Bud Parbes was sent
to the workhOuse on ten dollar contract
for having been drunk and disOrderly.

Cal Magnets EFinsfreIs.

Happy Cal Wagner and his famous COM
pany of Ministries are billed for the Opera
House this and tomorrow evening. This
troupe mt with a warm reception in Mem
phis. The appeal says:
Another full house greeted Cal Wagner
Ministries at Assembly hall last night, and
the entertainment like the previous one,
was recherche and unusually interesting.
The entire performance was of acknow-
lodged merit and excellence. Green and
Sadler in their songs and dances brought
down the house, and in response to a most
appreciative encore had to appear a second
time. Cal Wagner'S songs were
received, as they deserved to be,
with the warmest appreciation, especially
his Little Old Cabin IN de Lane. The
comic play entitled Market Day, by Price,
Hawkins and Harley, abounded with
humOr, mirth and joy, the fist named
actor peISOnating the character of a country
darkey with inimitable skill and admirable
prOpriety. URUdJTGntuble Tnt71,si0nS, BY
Cal Wagner and Ben Brown, was given in
such a manner as to fill every one with
laughter. The champion JIG by Ben.
Brown, who is the most yariedly talented
of the troupe, was as fine dancing as was
ever witnessed in this city. In addition to
the above features, Ewing Harley's song
Close the Shutters, Hawkins Good old
Friends, Sam Prices ChiRGmGn John,
and J. IL. Murphey's Home by the Sea,
were sung most excellently, and proved ad-
ditiOnal evidences of the fine vOcalism of
these members of the troupe.

The Price of Money.

To the Union and American:
For the question of the Brownsville
States, "Why money should not be as
cheap in the West and South as in Ger
many, France and England, there is a
straight answer: Money is cheap in the
old country because it is an old country.
The economic operations for more than a
thousand years have drawn the gold and
silver there and hedged it about. You
find in all the important towns and cities
of Europe multitudes Of gentlemen, called
renters, who are above mental service, and
draw a fixed income as interest upon their
money lent out. They loan their surplus
means at the legal rate and sometimes
lower; but only to parties who are unques-
tiOnably good. Again, there is no trouble
and little delay in collecting a promissory
note. 4 debt, secured by mort
gage, is recoverable at law in
q few weeks. Stay-laws and exemption
laws are unknown. Nobody dares ''make
over" his property to a friend or relative to
defraud a creditor. Ii he do, he is trapped
and severely punished. 1t is this certainty
of recovery which enables the renters TO
let their money cheaply. The notorious
uncertainty of recovery in this country
helps, vastly more than the popular mind
imagines, to keep up high rates of interest.
Other causes operate to keep up the rate
here, and their OppOsiteS to keep it down
there. They are attributable mainly to
the age of the one country and the youth
of the other. In the old country new and
fast ways of making money are scarce. In
our country they are numerous, and not
only have their legitimate effect of raising
the price Of money, but have the morbid
effect of producing an infatuation, which
raises it still higher. S. l.. S.
