nerstone of the new church and school
of the German Lutheran congregation

church lot, where the building force

situated on Washington street, between
Third and Fourth. The building is to
be Of brick, forty by about eighty feet.
AS it is too late in the year to erect the
whole building, which will be, like most
of the churches in Memphis, two.story-
school below and church above-the
building committee intends to erect but
the basement this fall, with a temporary
roof This must be finished before win
ter sets in, because the private house on

used for church and school purposes the
last eighteen years, is getting too small.
Contracts for brick, carpenter and stone
works have been made with Messrs. 0.
81. P. Piper. H. Segler and Muldoon,

work the congregation is indebted to
Messrs. Risk & Johnson, A. Kohlbry

PERSONS who attended the FAR yes
terday complain very seriously at the
manner the trains were run on the Mem
nhis and Charleston railroad. 1t was
advertised that the train would return at
$50 pm. Hundreds of women and
children we're there, expecting that this
promise would be carried out in good
faith. But it was not. The train was
switched off until two outgoing trains
went BY. 1t was nearly seven o'clock
when the immense crowd was set down
at the depot. The remarks INDUCED IN
were not at all complimentary to the
management of the railroad. We regret
to know that any cause OF complaint
should exist. Yet when such is the case
we feel it a duty to represent the peo-
ule' 5 side of the question. The Far is
too important an institution to be de-
feated in its purposes by any misappre-
hension between railroad aud its
patrons. We only hope that it may not
become necessary to allude to this mat
ter again.

We call the attention of those in au-
thority to the fact that the contents
taken from the privy vaults in the city
by the new process are being spread upon
the gardens and fields around the city.
One or more Of the privy wagons make
daily trips and deposit loads of this poi
sonous filth in the suburbs. DR.. Ramsey
stated that the cause of cholera raging
with such violence at Greenville only q
few months ago was owing mainly to the
fact that the contents Of the privies had
