While there is a law for the punishment OF

While there Is law for the punishment OF
"comInon scolds," Ii is very seldom that
cases of this character are brought into
court Yesterday, however, two ladies ap-
peared before police justice In Baltimore
and asked for the arrest Of a scold who is
continually Fostering and abusing them.
The justice thought IL very difficult To re-
strain that unruly member, the tongue.
especially that OF woman, and TO fortify
his position quoted the fourth chapter OF the
Epistle Of St James, beginning with the
NTH verse, and At the conclusion of the read
ing he assured them that divine law itself
does not recommend a remedy. Turning
then TO human law, he recommended the
Compliments to wait a few days and ne
would himself personally see the husband of
the alleged "seold," probably with view to
the abatement Of the nuisance In question.

This country Will bear with christian for
titude and resignation the news which comes
from Liverpool, to the effect that the ocean
steamers running between our side and
Europe are making little or nothing this
year. The telegraph tells us that a large
neet Of the very choicest vessels are already
lying up at Liverpool for want of freight and
passengers, and that still more of them are
to be WITHDRAWN At an early day. Had their
owners been wise In time, this result could
have been averted, at least In part II not
wholly. Between hard times, the Centennial
year, and the great exhibition, IL was long
ago apparent that the hegira from this coun-
try 70 Europe would not be nearly SO large
this summer as in former years. Clearly.
then, the owners and agents OF the various
lines ought to have made an effort to COM
pensate for this loss by getting the tide OF
travel to set tosrord America during the
summer, and with the great exhibition In
view this task would have been compare
lively easy. But they looked coldly on, do.
ing nothing to make our great show q sue.
cess By inducing foreigners to come over.
And now they have their reward, as above
indicated. Had they been enterprising and
generous, their gain would have also been
our gain. AS IL Is, their loss In our gain, In
that the money ordinarily spent by Ameri-
cans In European travel Is kept at home this
year. This fact enables us TO bear the news
Of the great falling or In ocean travel with
out shedding tears.

OF course accounts Will differ as to the
auriferous character OF the Black Hills, and
1t Is difficult 70 form any accurate Judgment
on that point Mr.. Janney, who was sent
out by the government last year TO examine
the region from a geological standpoint,
reported in substance that while gold could
not be picked up by the shovel full, 1t yet
could be found In paying quantities in GER
tain parts Of the hills. Hundreds and per-
haps thousands OF persons have undoubted-
ly gone TO that locslity under the supposi
ton that they would be able To make their
'etarnal fortins" In a few weeks, and have
been grfevously disappointed Not only have
they been disappointed In not finding the
precious metal In large quantities, but they
have been Obliged TO run the gauntlet OF
large bands Of hostile Sioux, who have laid
In wait for them with q view OF obtaining
scalp locks. Hundreds have already been
murdered by the Sioux, and IL is quite prob
able that hundreds more Will meet with vio-
lent deaths In endeavoring 10 get away from
the land which they once imagined was an
Eldorado. Apropos OF this we give An ex-
tract from letter recently received In this
city from an old Nevada miner. which puts
the situation in the Black Hills as regards
their capability for gold production In
quite favorable light The writer reports
"the Black Hills q success, and says he is
where the boys are taking out gold by the
pound. He was At Deadwood on the 2ist of
May. DR.. Overman Ii recorder OF Deadwood
and Whitewood, and reports the country
good, with q population Of from Loo to 5000.
A large party has started to prospect the Big
Horn mountains. The Montana boys say
that Deadwood will beat Alder Gulch. /
don't believe IL can, as IL was the best pay
ing gulch on record, and was worked for
twenty miles"
4. II is little singular that the writer makes
allusion to Indian hostilities.

an old and hi ghly esteemed citizen, and or
business circles a most prominent, honoIs
bic and enterpris ing member. Walking the
streets in perfect health last evening, IL
seems hard 10 realize that he is no longer of

their terrible and uuforewarned addiction,
his family Will have the sympathy not only
ofa large circle Of friends but OF the eommu-

PROF. WILLIAM MUELLER, the dis
tinguished terpsichorean artist, expects
to return to Memphis by the tenth OF
next month, when he will commence
another course OF instruction for ladies
and gentlemen, and also for children.
Mr.. DANIEL FROHMAN, business
manager OF Calendars Georgia Min
strels, writes us from Boston, that his
troupe had met with an immense sue
cess in that city, and that everybody
speaks in high terms Of the real dsrkey
singers.
Mr., II, Is. WICKs, the excellent cor
respondent and worthy agent of the
New York Graphic, returned yesterday
from 8 pleasant visit to New Orleans,
aud leaves to-day for the east. Mr..
Wicks has made many friends and
formed warm social ties In Memphis
during his sojourn here, and we trust he
will often visit our city. He will al
ways be welcome.
THE Mardi. Gras carnival in Memphis,
Gays the st. Louis Republican, was bril-
lisntly spectacular, to judge from glow
ing accounts of the festival, and the
space given to its illustration in the pic.
torials, especially the New Y ork Graphic.
It may be considered theatrical, mas
much as several theatrical artists were
engaged In preparing it, and also that
part OF the celebration took place in the
Theater. It wss, at any rate, the finest
show that Memphis ever saw, and
doubtless the flnest spectacle Of the kind
ever seen in this country. We feel some

artists were engaged in getting up the
effects OF this grand carnival and we
are DESTROYS that they should have due
credit. They were Mr.. Thos. c. Noxon,
the scenic artist Of the Olympic tneater,
and Mr.. Carl Gutherz, Of this city.
General Greene, Of Memphis, conceived
the general design, GutheIz drew the
plans, and Noxon executed them, with
bis knowledge and experience OF theat'
rical effects. He appears to have given
great satisfaction to the managers OF the
show. He painted the floats for the
street parade, and made the tableaux
and transformation scene for the display
in the Theater. We understand that all
the costumes, properties, figures OF ami:
mails, aud other figures were imported
from Paris. We further learn that the
most attractive features Of the Mardi-
Gras pageant at Memphis will probably
be transported to Philadelphia to grace
the Centennial procession. Memphis is
ouly waiting to see if New Orleans and
MobiIe-both Mardi-Gras cities-will
join In the enterprise, divide the ex-
pense, and share the glory. 1t would be
3 novelty in Philadelphia, and well
worth introducing into the Centennial
festivities.
