new and valuable improvement is now
being introduced in this community 1t
is all that the proprietor claims for it. The
independent action of the springs which
are made of the best tempered steel and
each supporting itself from the base, are
principles entirely unknown in this COM
m unity, and produce an elasticity equal in
and most durable bed in existence. It can
easily be changed from one size to another,
a nd can be packed in a very small space
when not wanted in use. We are pleased

recommend it as being all the proprietor

MEMPHIS THEATER.-Last night Mrs.
Bowers appeared before,a large and cul-
tlvated audience, and gave a pleasing
and effective rendition of the role
Eleanor Carleton" in the play of
Eleanor. Mrs. Bowers was admirably
supported by Mr.. McCollum and the
members OF the Davey dramatic com
pany. During the first three acts four
civil rights negroes sat in the back part
OF the dress circle, evidently i'll at ease
as they watched the knots of white men
who gathered around the door. At the
close of the third act they concluded to
leave, which caused no little pleasure TO
the white audience that was evidently
getting FESTIVE at the intentional insult
offered by the impudent negroes. The
same may be repeated to night, but we
hope not, as such a course on the part
OF the black race will create bad feeling
IN Memphis. Tonight Mrs. Bowers will
appear in Lady Audley's Secret. At
the matinee tomorrow Eleanor will he
the attraction, and at night Ingomar.
