monument. to be in the fashion. From
Woolwich, England, We hear that, in
consequence OF the Duke of Edinburgh's g
splicing with daughter of the Gar,
two Russian guns and carriages, tro-
plies of the Crimean war, have been re-.
turned to the Royal Arsenal from Col
chester, where they have stood as PUB.
lie monuments for about seventeen
years. It has been noticed that several
other trophies OF similar character
have been surrendered by local au-
thorities Of other towns. and that they
are on their way to Woolwioh. where
they will be broken up. There are
very few Russian guns exhibited at the
Royal Arsenal, and these are, generally
speaking, only such as are remarkable
for some peculiarity-one having a can.

TORNADO IN PICKENs CoUNTY.-The
Northern section of our County was
visited on Thursday evening, 9th inst,
by one of the most destructive tornadoes
that has ever passed through this sec-
tlon OF country, except. perhaps, that Of
1860. The course of the storm was
from the Southwest to North east. and
was about half mile in width, and as
far as we have heard, eight or ten miles
IN extent. We visited the residence of
Mr.. W. G.. Field, on Friday evening.
after the storm, aud found him, with
forty-seven citizens of the neiehbor-
hood, hard at work repairing bis da-
images His fine young apple orchard
OF 2CO trees or more was entirely de-
stroyed; the large and stately shade
trees, topped and trimmed years ago by
the venerable head of the family, who
has since passed away, were all. with
one exception, blown down, two of
them on the dwelling. Over 1000
p nels OF fencing around the plantation
we're blown down, and every building
on the place, save the dwelling, was an.
rooted. Corn to the amount of over
fifty bushels was blown out of the crib.
and several hundred bundles of fodder
carried of. and was not found at all.
and everything presented the appear.
ance OF destruction and ruin. Huge
trees were piled in every conceivable
direction. There was knoll OF several
acres where there was not single tree
left standing. Mr.. F.'s loss in his
orchard and timber is estimated at
$1,000. The storm passed over Day yis'
Mountain, on the West side OF Twelve
Mile River. and over Reese's, on the
East side, and struck Porter's Chapel, a
new Methodist Church, carried the
whole top, including wall plates. clear
off, and prostrating all the timber in the
vicinity, passed on to Nujor Ambler's.
where ahont 1000 panels OF fencing and
many Of his fruit trees were blown
down, but fortuna ately no buildings were
damaged. How much further than
Major Ambler's it extended, we have not
been informed, nor DO we know :hs ex-
tent OF damages done by it.

EXPENSIVE FUNERALS. One OF the
curiosities of New York is the mania
among very poor people for expensive
funerals. The Star states that fune.
raj took place o few days ,sinoe, from O
shanty in Ninety-Sixth street, at which
there was grand hearse, containing q
handsomely-mounted coffin, and some
thirty well.appointed hacks. It is cal
culated that the funeral cost $500, while
the shanty from which it proceeded was
not worth 5000.
The old soldiers OF the First Empire
held their annual banquet in Paris on
March 20. The traditional loaf OF armv
bread was on the table. adorned with q
branoh-thig time entirely budless-of
the celebrated chestnut tree of 20 Mars.
Of the 5000 who were alive in 1859,
scarcely q hundred remain. Toasts were
drunk to the memory of the great
Emperor, to the Army Of AusterlitS, to
Marchal De MacMahon, and to the re-.
surrection Of the glory of the country.

WE call upon every man to-day who
has any regard for the character and

their attempts to ruin the character and
standing OF Memphis merchants, BUSH

There is more in this matter than mere
politics. TIE character OF our city is at
stake and her prosperity is endangered.
The election Of such a man as EtheridCe
