Mr.. I. R. Toole, press agent Of Coles
circus, is in the city, on the way to rejoin
the circus which shows tomorrow at
Nashville. This great show, wo are
grati6ed to learn, has done a splendid
business in the towns of Mississippi and
Tennessee. The receipts have been en-.
tirely satisfactory. This is due to two
reasons. First, the show is a Southern
institution in a CERTAIN sense; it wintered
in Memphis, was reftted here, and fur
nished elephants, csmels and wagons for
the grand PROFESSIONS Of Mardi Gras.
The people OF Tennessee and adjacent
States ere aware OF this fact, and ready
to reciprocate. In the second place it is
a first class circus and m~ensgerie, equal
in every respect to any that has been on
the road in many years. Mr.. Cole is a
gentlemanly manager, a reliable bust.
ness man, who pays his bills, treats
everybody we'll, and is popular wherever
he is known. At the head of such a
combination Of attractions such a mar
cannot fail to win applause, friends and
glorious success. We learn that after
touching one or two places in Kentucky,
the show will come around to West Ten
uessee again, and on the 3Oth inst, will
exhibit at Mason's Depot. Our country
friends up there may depend upon it,
they will not be disappointed in Coles
circus. Mr.. Toole, the g~entlemanly
press agent, is temporarily detained in
the city Oh account of illness, but hopes
to be able to leave tomorrow.

OF economy to use said material to fill out

A Curious Fact.

A New Orleans newspaper notices the
curious fact that different westhers and
climates prevail on the two banks Of the
Mississippi river. A frost on one side sell
dom passes to the other, and while the
right bank may be flooded with copious
rains the left may be suffering from severe
drouth. The vest bank regularly pro-
duces heavier sugar crops than the east
bank, aud the difference is constantly
increasing. During the last year the
west bank produced 1850 hOgheads Of
sugar, against "a, 9Ol on the east bank,
showing that the former was 81 per cent.
more productive than the latter.

very happy style by Mr.. George e. Dodge
Of this city, himself noted for all the
high qualities that make up a scholarly
and elevated gentleman. Mrs. Meri-
wether's subject is a weighty and i'm
portant one, and she has handled it quite
exhauStively. 1t is well and deliberately
written. We sincerely trust that she will
at once favor the people of New York
with so charming q treat, and the SOrosis
may well feel proud If they can secure
her presence there. We think at the

1t will be remembered that in our last

Keefer and family at their home in
Crawford county, on the ground that
they were the notorious Benders, and
that a writ Of hsbeas corpus was granted
by Judge Parker. Since then the officer,
Marshal Wilkerson, who wa entrusted
with the service of the writ, returned the
same, with the Keefer family and their
guards. Upon an investigation Of the
ease they we're discharged, proof being
produced to show that they we're not
the Blenders. 1t is a source of great
annoyance--it is a grievous wrong upon
the cltizen-to be THIS deprived Of bis
liberty, and, in a great many ways, ex.
posed by such arrests, made only on
suspicion, and redress should be within
his reach in every instance. To Mr.. ID.
G. Williams and others, who interested
themselves in behalf Of the Keefer fam.
lily and of justice, great credit is due.

returned to their home in Crawford
county, where they have lived for some
years, and we're accounted good citizens.

comparative ease, for she has had plenty
of money and taken her artistic studies
in different view from daily labor.
This has had the tendency to refine her
touch of the instrument and intensity
the eloquence of her execution.
HER PERSONAL APPEARANCE
Is one that improves upon acquain-
tance. She is short and. of late years.
has fallen into embonpoint; but you can
never forget the expressive face. with
its serene calmness and its eloquent
eyes. Nor can you forget the way in
which. when she comes to some pas
sage that requires extra fine execution,
she closes her eyes as if to render her
hearing more acute, believing that with
q single sense the soul may overflow.
Her spirit seems to ascend like q whis-
pered prayer from the vibrating chords.
AZ though her only life was in the har-
mony her wierd touch had awakened.
It is only when the melody has ceased
and its faintest echo dies away. that
your imagination becomes released from
its exquisite bondage and you realize
that it was only q woman. after all. who
has wrought this thraldom over your
senses.
HER STAGE DRESSES.
Are marvel of the art by which the
celebrated man milliner. Worth of
Paris. has gained his celebrity. In this
particular. as in everything else, her
exqrisite taste is manifest. Her six
stage dresses cost the neat little sum of
81. 800. so that the ladies will get q
chance to see four of them during the
two nights she plays here. as she per-
forms each of her solos in a different
costume. She was married. some eight
years ago to Mr.. Frederick Luer, Il Ger
man gentleman Of fine tastes and liter
ary cultivation. He manages all the
business affairs of the concerts and il is
mainly to his dis ,retion that the Ma
dame owes her pecuniary success.
Knowing very we'll that it would never
do to have two wonders in one family,
be is content to be known as "Camil-
las Husband" and asks no prouder
title.

Turn Of the Tide.


We have hitherto alluded to the rapid

sells arriving here. The truth is that
the good timber has been nearly all OK
hausted along the Eastern coast of this
continent. The oak vessels built at the
East in the past ten years have been of
very inferior quality. Take. for ex-
ample. the steamships Nebraska and
Arizona, both of which were built in
1868 and are now so rotten that it will
not pay to repair them. Everything
betokens the scarcity of timber there or
such inferior quality of stuff would not
be used
The latest thing in exports of lumber
is shipment of redwood shingles TO
New York from San Francisco, 12S, 900
in ALL This is indeed change of
front. In 1850. lumber of all sorts, to-
ge,her with ready made houses. were
shipped to San Francisco from Eastern
ports. They were sold for heavy sums
at first, given away afterwards. The
subsequent growth and development of
the Pacific Coast. especially of Puget
Sound. is matter of history. For some
years past there has been a constant ex-
port of California laurel 10 the Eastern
States, where it is made up into billiard
tables, sewing machines and pianos. Il
will net be long before redwood will be
shipped IN large quantities. because it
can be laid down cheaper by sea than
pine can be carried from Michigan by
railroad. This is turn of the tide.
1t will never pay to ship to Eastern
yards the heavy timbers required in
ship-builling. Far cheaper will it be

or she would not import redwood from
California. And how soon she will

decrease in the tariff on iron to afford
some margin of profit that is now cut
off under the specious plea of protec-
ton.
