OUR DISTINGUISHED GUEST.

Governor A. S. Marks, the gifted
and chiyalrous chiet executive Of the
State, arrived by the early train to-
day, aud will participate ia the cere-
monies of laying the cornerstone Of
the custom house. Colonel Kellar,
chairman of the reception committee,
met the train at the depot at 5 o clock
am, but found that the governor pre-
ferred enjoying an hour or two
more sleep to riding up to the
hotel at such an early hour. He
therefore rode down at eight o'clock,
escorted by the military company from
Clarksyille. Governor Marks is one
of the youngest governors We have
had in many years, being scarcely forty
years old. Yet he cut a prominent
figure in the war, rising from the rank
of captain to colonel, aud after he was
wounded at the battle OF Murfrees-
boro filing an important position
as judge advocate After tbs
war he resumed the practice of the
law, and after a time was elected
chancellor OF the Winchester
district, position he filled with the
highest credit for eight years. His
first visit to Memphis was near the
close of the late gubernatorial canvass,
while the great plague of 1873 yet re-
mained. Gloom and sorrow prevailed
in the very air, for we had not yet
buried our dead To-day he comes
among us under different auspices.
The streets are thronged with we'll
dressed, cheerful people, and all the
signs of prosperity and enterprise are
TO be seen on every hand Governor
Marks will be accorded hearty and
generous welcome. He is recognized
as one of the progressive and rising
young statesmen Of the day, and will
always be welcome in Memphis.
