VIC iSCl ulspOseu 10 CTlllclso our uO-
known friend, but not to execrate him.
Or, perhaps We will only correct some
of the errors aud Misrepresentation
which he has published to the world
under the guise Of a special correspon
dent.
We have before corrected the untruth-
ful statement about that frog pond in
front of our Normal School house, and
now we call attention to the concluding
portion of the same paragraph, to wit:
-"It should have been pleasantly 10
Gated at a thousand places in the Wei.
nifty if the Commissioners could not
fnd place at some railroad point IN
tie State to establish Normal
School"
just what that paragraph means it is
impossible for us to determine; and we
conclude 1t comes from La Crosse
sympathizer, or some Other sorehead
in some other locality. We think that
the School is well located aud do not
believe that. out of tho "thousand places
in the vicinity" or in the state there
could have been found more suitable
location The fact that we have no
railroads here at present, is not a ieath.
er's weight against it. A railroad is
only question of time, and very
brief space Of time, at the most.
While we can stand a little hattery.
we do not Care to be pulled too high
Ours is not "a place of 1000 inhabi-
tants," nor does it yet reach 500
Again" Below the town are
Touring mills that grind more wheat
than is ground IN the country" This
we are unable to comprehend. It seems
to us that that Is not lucid assertion.
We would say that it also seems
TO us that "Yiatcr" is quite too
hasty when he says that the people Of
Pierce county deserve exocration for
neglectiug so slight an honor as a toni
stone to Lutte A. TAYLOR, aud that
Fiator deserves severe condemnation
for thus publicly upbraiding the friends
Of one so dear to them in life, aud who
will never be forgotten, even IN death.
LUTE TAYLOR has left a monument IN
the productions Of his pen which will
rise higher than any earthly temple.
Full many are the gems that are floating
around in the literary world which were
the bright scntllatious Of bis genius, aad
they will still brighter shine as the
ever varying current Of TINE shall
carry them down to postority.
Nay, the people of Pierce county
need not rear monument to one who
has reared his own. As has been most
truly said, Lutte TAYLOR was man
Of genius, and we repeat what we once
before said of him that, in the blaze
of a kindling imagination, or under the
calm monitions Of reason he rose Fri.
! umrhautly above the narrow limits and
Restrictions that would chain him to
the sphere Of ordinary minds. 1t was
his province to blend with alternate
happiness of dCscription,t the frolic spirit
Of his mother w.t. or melt the heart 70

The above is the title of very hand
some volume just issued from the press
Of Boyle & Chapman, under Cemetary
Association of Memphis. That it is a
valuable and important work ito all
whom it may concern" no one would
doubt; but that subject apparently so
practical business-lik and common
place should be wreathed with the gar.
lands of ideality and crowned with the
jeweled diadem of genius, no one, surely,
would expect. The test of writer
genius should be- not the vigor, beauty
and originality with which he can invest
subject of his own choosing, but the
interest, force and ideality which he can
throw into plain, barren and thread
bare topic, chosen for him by others.
Ada ptability is as true test Of genius,
and rarer quality by far, among men
of brain, than originality. In this re
gard the writer of Elmwood Colonel
DuPre) has built for himself a monu-
ment that should be enduring, for he, of
a surety, was, like the Hebrews of old,
required to make his bricks without
straws." And he has not only built his
monument, but has wreathed it with
garlands ofpoetry and beauty that should
bloom perennially, when the hand that
planted them has crumbled into dust.
The book is well worthy place in the
library of every citizen of Memphis, and
the writer has done himself great injus-
tice in withholding his name from the
public, but we have not been so guilty.

that " the Board Of Health or the city

Happy Hollow, even II there was case
of smallpox or yellow fever in every
house; nor can the residents be legally

not being nuisances in the eye OF the

not apply for an injunction to prevent
the Board Of Health from destroying her

Dame Fortune has the reputation Of
being both tickle and partial in the dis
tribution of her favors, but as she has
heretofore presided over the distribution

partial The first grand capital gift of
the first concert went to John R. Duff,
of the city of Memphis; the next CAPT
tai gift, at the second drawing, went to
club at Columbus, Ind; Mr.. Keith, of

HORRIBLE BRUTALITY.
/ Little Boy Hanged by a Fiendish
rant


Tyrant.
From the Brownsville Bee. June 19th.l
On Monday last negro named Henry
Randolph, living on Captain j. M.
Shaw's plantation, nine miles east of
Brownsville, was arrested, carried before
Esquire Dickinson, of District No. 3,
and committed for trial for the killing of
little orphan negro boy named Antony,
aged twelve or fourteen years, who had
been living with him. He was arrested
by John Alfn, colored, who had been
summoned by Sheriff Sherman to take
him. He was in the hands Of Captain
Shaw, one of our very best citizens, aud
on the way to a magistrate to give him
self up when taken. 1t seems that on
Tuesday, June 9th, the boy Antony was
driving a two-horse wagon hauling rails,
when the team, mule and blind horse,
ran away with the wagon. The horse
came in collision with tree, damaging
his shoulder. This so enraged Randolph
that he attempted to ohastise the boy,
who ran from him and made temporary
escape. Later in the evening Randolph
managed to get his hands on him, and
placing a rope around his neck swung him
up til his toes only rested on the ground.
In this situation be was beaten by the in
furiated brute until the boy tainted.
Randolph then cut him down and dash
ed bucket of water over him, but it
was too late. The little fellow, choked
and beaten as he was, died almost i'm
mediately. Randolph buried the boy
at 6 o'clock next morning, calling in no
one to sit up with the corpse the night
previous. The facts in the case gradu-
ally leaked out, and the murderer was
bound over to answer as above, but
claimed that the boy had died Of natural
causes, and was released on S5OOO
bond. After the trial, Coroner. SIMS
learning some of the particulars, impan,
neled a jury and had the body exhumed
and examined by DR.. Robt. +. Barclay,
of this city. We are informed that a; me
body was found to have been terribly
beaten. Randolph is held under 2 SoOOO
bond to appear before Esq. Dickinson
for further examination to-day.
