Two of the ablest sermons we
have ever heard were delivered at
the Methodist church, in this city,
last Sunday by the distinguished
divine, Rev. David Morton, of
Russelville, KY, an itinerant
preacher of twenty years service,
the last year of which was spent in
Montana and in New Mexico. The
subject of Mr., BLOrton's morning
discourse was an extract from the
Lords Prayer" Our Father who
art in Heaven" This was a pow
erful sermon; his remarks being
forcible, pointed, decisive and,
above all, heartfelt and earnest !;
and the sermon which he delivered
in the evening was, if possible, SUI
perior to that of the morning. His
text in the evening was, Gathering
up the Fragments" the leading
ideas of which We're, attention to
the lesser offerings, or details Of
life, economy in all things, support
and encouragement for the fallen
and fOrsaken, to lead them to for
mer and better lives. Both dis
courses were listened to with Wrapt
attention by his large and cultivated
audience, who were fascinated by
his power and eioquence; and
should Mr.. Morton ever visit our
city again, we can assure him of a
hearty welcome from the many
friends he has made among us.

Readings and Hecitations.

We have to announce an enter
tainment of highly intellectual quail
ity for next Thursday and Friday
nights, to consist of select readings
and recitations by Miss Carrie Wal
ker. Our Nashville and Louisville
exchanges are enthusiastic in her
praises, as well as the local press
throughout Kentucky and Tennes-
see. A sweet, clear voice, q perfect
enunciation and a sympathetic fac
uIty of expression are among the
qualities dilated upon by our con-
temporaries, while to these is added
an engaging manner and an appear
ance in which are combined the at
fractions of youth and loveliness.
So, young gentlemen, choose g fair
companion and secure places for two
without more ado.

BOLD Game.

On last Saturday as Mr.. Green
Brown, gentleman well known in
this city, was coming out of the
Northern Bank with a roll of money
in his hand, he was accosted by a
couple of negroes, one of whom un-
dertook to show him some cards,
and while his attention was attracted
to him the other snatched twenty
dollars -four five-dollar bills) and
ran. Mr.. Brown gave chase, but
both negroes outran him and were
soon out of sight. He Immediately
notified the police, who, on hearing
his description, identified the parties
as two notorious thieves and conf
dencesharps, who have been arrested
on several occasions for similar
transactions, but who have sue
ceeded by some means in evading
justice. Officers Morrison and Phil
lips captured the one who snatched
the money. Hegives his name this
time as Charles Harris, with por-
ton of the money and a full lag ont
of cards. He was tried before J.
Cobb, J. p, and sent to Jail to await
the action of the Grand Jury. Our
police are always on the alert for
these fellows and spot them as soon
as they get to town.

River Items.

The river commenced falling yes
terday morning. THERE'S yet about
10 feet ON shoals, being sufficient
water for the largest class of boats.
All the boats seem to be running re-
CARELESS of time, so that it is impos-
s!ble to report them correctly. We
have one each way nearly every
day, so freight or passengers are not
detained.
Hillman passed down yesterday
morning; will be up Tuesday night.
Anderson up tomorrow evening
and down Tuesday night.
Eddyville with good trip up yes
terday morning; will leave at 7
O'Clock Sunday morning for Cairo.
The Nashville went up yesterday
morning don't know when she will
be down.
But little tobacco coming in yet.
Corn in larger quantities has begun
to move now, and we anticipate
better time for the boats.

The Tobacco Board and the ST. l..
and :. f. H. e.

and 5. E. H. e.
The st. Louis and South Eastern
Railroad is again placing itself in
opposition to the interests of Clarks-
vile and its tobacco trade. The
following order was last week
issued to the agents of that road !;
they are to receive and ship no
freight which is to pass over the
l.. & n. Railroad unless the
freight is prepaid at their full local
tariff for the distance the freight
passes over the road :" Whether
it be the purpose of the railroad
company or not, the effect of this
order will be to divert large guam
tity of tobacco from this market
it is one movement in the mutually
destructive war which has been
carried on so often between the
above named road and the L. n.
& G. S. R. r., injurious alike to the
stockholders and employees of both
roads, to the public and to both
buyers and sellers of produce along
the roads.
The GAINESVILLE Tobacco Board
has given its attention to the trans
action, as one seriously affecting the
tobacco trade Of this place, and at
its meeting of the 10th inst. passed
the following resolutions
ResolUed, That this board has
learned with surprise of the action
of the st. Louis and Southeastern
Railway Company issuing an order
to their station agents "tO receive
and ship no freight which is to pass
over the Louisville and Nashville
railroad unless the freight is pre-
paid at their full local tariff for the
distance the freight passes over the
road" This order evidently hav-
ing fhe effect to stop or delay all
shipments of tobacco and other
produce to GAINESVILLE, this board,
in its corporate capacity, protests
against the injurious action of the
above railroad as unjust and illegal,
and which should be opposed by
every means in its power.
SecOnd-That the President of the
Board is hereby requested to take
legal advice with view to suit of
damages against said road.
Third-That the Honorable May
or and Board of Aldermen of the
city of GAINESVILLE are hereby re-
quested also to take prompt action
to give the trade of this town the
protection which it is entitled to,
under the common carrier law.
FoQrth-That the Secretary is re-
quested to furnish q copy of these
resolutions to the Mayor and Alder
men of the city of Clarksville, and
to the managers of the St. l.. & s.
E. Railway Company,

THE establishment for roller ska
ting established by Messrs. Charles
& Behler at Melodeon Hall became
quite popular; so much so that we
regret It's having been closed on ac-
count of having been a great incOn-
venience to the renters of stores be-
meath it. We have not participated,
but the Tobacco Leaf was well repre-
scented by its graceful editor, whose
motions on the rollers were swan
like. Well, if they didn't quite
come up to the swan standard, they
were good enough for very large
sized goose. Riley complained of a
swimming in the head after his ex-
ertions, but then he sleeps on Straw
berry alley, and the local Influences
of that region are not favorable to
steadiness of the brain, In correc-
ton of the above statement we are
requested to say that the prOprietors
are in negotiation for another room,
the opening of which will be duly
notified.
