ADJUSTMENTS.
CaI Wagner,s nrInstrelr.


We again remind our readers that Cal Wag-
ner's minstrels, received by Memphians last
season with such ecldt, will make their ap-
pearance on Thursday night next at the
Greenlaw Operahouse The programme for
the occasion will be entirely new to our CT IT,
zens, and win be interpreted with all the
Cal and his happy band.
The MendelssOhn Concert.
We have published already all that is neces-
sary to enlighten the public as to the charsc-
delssohn club, on Monday (to-norrow) night,
but we may remind our readers Of the event,
and repeat that it will be the best
by i, the Club. The SHir pfogramme sTeT Stygr emi
braces the Mag Queen, the argument of which
We published last Sunday, and selections
that will demand for their proper rendition
the best amateur vocal talent we have, and a
full chorus, embracing the entire membership
OF the club. Handwerker's orchestra is also
engaged, and viii, during the evening, per
form an acceptable variety of selections.
The Theafer.
Mr.. ]. c. King took his leave of Memphis last
night and played to perhaps the poorest house
ever seen in the Theater. The bill was Notre
Dame, which, notwithst snding the scarcity OF
numbers was given with as much care as at
the matinee, when tt was decidedly better
performed than on Friday or Thursday night.
Mr.: King was quite himself on both occasions
and achieved great reputation with such of
the ladies as were present at the matinee, as
had not seen him before. He leaves to-day
for Cincinnati, where he will play a two-weeks
engagement, and thence to Chicago where he
will play three weeks. Here he will be sue
ceeded by Miss Kin Ssbury, whose line of busi-
ness is similar to that OF Maggie Mitchell. She
will appear on Tuesday night.
The Coming Fair.
We learn that the leading women of the
several Protestant churches OF the city have
undertaken the task of a fair " for the bene-
f1t of the Young Mems christian association
10 replace the funds expended by that body
upon the sick and needy during the late cpl
demic. Money for this purpose is now being
contributed, and in a few days announcement
will beInade of the time ana place of holding
the fair. Meantime we trust the young peo-
pie OF all our churches will interest them
selves in the scheme, and be ready 10 lend il
not merely their presence, but all the aid in
their power. The management OF it has been
committed to good hands, and we think our
selves safe in predicting that 1t will be a sue
cess commensurate with the deseryinRB of
one of our most useful associations.
Professor aueIIer's Matinee.
Professor Mueller, who recently arrived in
this city from Louisville, and opened at the
Memphis club hall dancing academy, has
fully deserves. Yesterday there was not less
than seventy-nve or one hundred persons /
dren representing our best families were
there. The professor has the most |
elegant parlors and hall in Memphis. They |
are elegant in point of decoration and fittings
and are every way worthy his pre-einine5t |
talent as an artist. We have never had IN |
Memphis the same complete and artistic |

Prof. Mueller. He confines himself not merely |
TO dancing, but extecds his care and tuition |
to department, teaching young people how to |
overcome the swkwardness and qducherte of |
manner which makes social intercourse q |
severe trial and irksome to so many !
Of both sexes. The professor Is q phil !
oSopher, who understands human ma |
ture, and is prepared TO deal with |
Il in satisfactory manner. He |
Is not merely man who deals with the |
heels" he appeals to the "head" and directs 1
young people how they may make themselves |
agreeable, as for instance they do in France |
without any of the embarrassments that |
usually characterize the American and Eng
ish people. We congratulate our citizens upon I
he presence in Memphis of Professor Muel-
or, who will prove himself Just the man we /
want to prepare rising generation for social |
Intercourse and for those interchanging
,ourtesies which are essential to the |
perfection of ladies and gentlemen. We |
Ilso congratulate the professor upon his /
uccess here. 1t argues for him the |
possession of rare talents, and for our people
he ability to appreciate those talents and
vail themselves OF them for the benefit of
lie children now threading upon our heels"
We hope the success of the professor Will con.
inue, and that it will be given to us shortly to
that he has many pupils as he |
an possibly attend to. Hereafter his matinees
