 Last Tuesday there arrived at our depot, coIple-male and fe- male--of fine jersey cattle, con signed respectively to Mir. John Bradley and Mir. A. W. Mathews, of our county. These Jerseys came from Tennessee, are thor ough- -bloods. and cost the pur- chascrs good round prices. We commend the enterprise of these two gentlemen, and hope they may find it profitable invest inent.
 THE WHEAT CRoP.-Our reports, from the country since the pleas mt weather of the past ten days or two weeks, point to more cheering prospect for the wheat crop. Much ground where the grain had not sprouted, or at least come up, prior to the snow which fell during Christmas week, now presents a pleasant appearance with it's fresh green stand of young wheat. We trust that the crop may yet turn out much better than has been expected.
 The following notice of first class Memphis firm, we find in the Memphis Appeal, and reproduce it with much pleasure:
 The justly popular and enterpris- ing firm of Hill, Fontaine & Co.,, at Nos. 360 and 362 Front street, have just received one of the largest and best-selected stocks of fresh Louis- jana sugars, molasses and coffee ever brought to this city.
