ing allowed to be moved to Memphis; he will

young lady and gentleman go to Mount
Bonnell together three times they will end by
joining hearts and hands in holy matrimony,
and this is probably what makes the place so
attractive to the young people of the place.
There is an old dead cedar tree on the sum-
NIT of the mount, and every one who goes
there is expected to carve thereon in conspic-
uous letters the name of his fair itamOrdtd.
AS a consequence the trunk, In fact every
limb of the old tree, is covered with initials,
and If the operation is to continue some new
tree will have to be selected. 1t is said that
the name of Sam Bass, the noted desperate,
who was killed few days since at Round
Rock, occupies a conspicuous place on the
tree, but whether he carved it himself Is and
will remain a mystery. Every one rides In
this country, even women and chlldren-not
riding in the way we do In Tennessee, which
is lust to stick on by hook or by crook, but in
an easy, graceful manner. In fact, riding a
horse is reduced to a science, and any one
who can't ride is not up to the standard, and
need not apply. The horses know In a mo-
ment whether the person is ito the manor

city last evening from months trip up the
country.
VISITORS at the cotton exchange yesterday
were: Judge J. F. Simmons, Sardis, Texas;
w. A. Goyer, New Orleans, and James Har-
rington, Little Rock.
MISS IDA WRIGHT, daughter of Mrs.
Jesse Moore, left the city yesterday on board
the steamer Gaff, en- route for Indiana, where
she will remain several months.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Louisville Cour-
er-JOurnaL, writing from Beersheba springs,
has this to say Of the amiable wife OF the
state treasurer, Colonel Marshall L. Polk:
Without disparagement to others L caDnot
Mrs. Polk, wife of Colonel Marsh Polk,
nephew of the President. Her easy, grace
full manner, her soft, sweet voice, her bright,
benevolent face, have won for her the respect,
love and homage of all. The memory of her
presence will be like the soft twilight that
fingers long after some bright departed day. y
AT a meeting of the faculty of the Mem
phis hospital medical college, held yesterday,
DIR. W. D. Hall resigned the chair In the
faculty devoted to diseases of women, where
upon DIR. R. B. Murray was Immediately
chosen to fill the vacancy. The resignation
of DR.. Hall would have been sad blow to
the prosperity of our new college had not the
faculty wisely secured the able services of
Dr. Maury in that department of medical
science for which he is so eminently fitted.
While the friends of the institution will re-
gret DR.. Halls withdrawal, they will con-
graduate the faculty on the association Of
DIR. Maury.

A VOICE FROM MISSISSIPPI.
General Vaughan, by Going Over TO the
Radical Nationals. has Lost the
Confidence OF Iississippians.

EDITORS APPEALING Mississippians just
across the line feel great interest in your
election coming off on the first of August.
Although we cannot vote with you, our hearts
are there, wishing a glorious victory may
crown your efforts against the combination of
soldier, and the discipline of the army made
it death to desert and go over to the enemy
and found fighting in their ranks. Occa-
sionally poor devil was caught, &nd he was
soon found dangling at the end of rope.
The same law must or should govern in poll
tics. Can any man who wore the grey vote
for General Vaughan. who deserted his party
on the eve of great battle, and then after
he had started out with the enemy and got
slightly wounded, and after he had fired the
forty fourth shot in his squad? We fellows
over here would not vote fer him (Vaughan),
nor would we vote for man who did. Gen
eral Vaughan, the nominee of the Marshall
county Democracy for sheriff, indorsing that
ticket, kills hiY very dead with Mississip-
plans, and. we hope, with Tennesseans.

vote the Democrat ticket this tune. l don't
like the pedigree of the National ticket;
Some good men on it, l guess; but, tell
you, dar's Mr.. Turner, he tells me if don't
vote for him my children will be begging
bread fore the year is out. 1 don't know
what to think of dat man. Now, last year,
just before the mayors lection, Mr.. Turner
was a terrible Democrat. and cause | voted
for Flippin he ranted nightly. Then l hear
Mr.. Turner, last spring, at the Greenlaw
Operahouse. lecturing on temperance. Him
and Mr.. Linkum SAID that it was the drunk
ards children that went begging bread
Now, tell you, is no drunkard; and, fur
