Memphis Cheater.

Another large and fashionable audience
appeared at the Theater last night to do
homage to the genius Of Mr.. Mccullough.
the Shakespearean actor. who SO charmed
the audience the night before by his grand
delineatlon of the great role ''Vlrginius
Last night Julius Caesar was the tragedy,
with Mr.. M Cullough as "Brutus." The adj
dress of "Brutus" to the people from the ros
trum was delivered by Mr.. M 'Cullough in fine
style, and was deservedly applauded by the
audience. The great quarrel scene in the
tent between "Brutus" INF. M'Cullougdl
and "Casslus" (Mr. Barron) was wonderfully
pleasing, as was also the scene. wherein ''Bru
tus'' sees the ghost of Caesar, and promises
to meet it again at Phillip. Throughout the
play, from the second act, where 'Brutus'
appears, down to the last, where he runs on
his sword, and says, Caesar be still; killed
not thee with half so good a will, - the acting
of MIR. Mccullough DIES ryes the highest
praise. In appearance, manner, voice and
gesture, hes was the great "Brutus,' of
whom Antony" said:
This was the noblest Roman of them all;
All the conspirators save only he,
hid that they did In enyy of great Caesar;
He only, ia the general honest thought
And common good 10 all, mad one Of them
His life was gentle and his elements
So mixed in him that nature might stand up,
And say to all the world, this tsdS man,
Mr.. MLullough had to appear before the
curtain several times to receive applause.
The support was very eoCd. Mr.. Lane, as
Antony" delivered the Grafton from the
rostrum over the dead body of Caesar" in
excellent style, and was called before
the curtain 10y the audience. Mr.. Barron,
as "Cassius, was everything to be expected
from so good an actor. la the quarrel scene
he was excellent, and played the part well.
The other roles were well filed, and gave
general satisfaction. Indeed, the tragedy in
every respect was finely presented, probably
never better IN this city. Tonight Mr..
Mccullough will appear IS KING Lear" one
of his best and greatest rOleS-one in which
he has made a reputation all over the lard.
The presentation Of this drama will insure a
crowded and fashionable house.

Davis and wife of Freeport, and Alonzo Still
lings of jackson, left the Glen Ellis House in
jackson, on Wednesday, bound for the top of
Mount Washington. The day opened pleasant,
with every prospect of fine trip. To the
base of the mountain the temperature was
comfortably warm and little, or no wind; but
as we advanced the wind increased in veloci-
ty; but no one thought it violent until the
Summit House was reached, when it was
agreeable to get under the lee of the building
A fire, or fires in Jefferson obscured the view
In great measure, SO that the party were
somewhat disappointed with the visit.
At2,3O p M, though the wind was blowing
pretty good guns, they set out to descend, not
thinking of more than ordinary danger,
though some apprehension was expressed; but
sented to go forward. AS they approached
the place called Cape Horn the wind became
frightful indeed; its velocity being at $50 p
M 81 miles an hour. Just before the turn in
the road at that point and about half
mile above the Halfway House, the gravel
was blown into our faces like hail stones; the
horses, team of six, were fairly blown from
their footing to the side of the road and the
carriage was lifted bodily into the ditch Hap
PLY it did not go over and with fear and
trembling the party at last reached the Half
way House unscathed, grateful for their de-
liverance to Him who make the winds His

We understand that the retail grocers and
provision dealers are making their arrange
ments for an excursion to the islands If pleas
ant they will probably go on Wednesday, Aug
goth. Full particulars will be published as
soon as the arrangements are perfected. Many
of our leading firms are interested in the mat
ter, and no doubt it will be grand success. In
connection with the excursion, it is intended
at that time to form a protective union. 1t
must be admitted that there is no class of our
business men who suffer more from bad debts,
than the retail grocer and provision dealer. 1t
is the intention of the association to hire a.
suitable room for meetings for consultation and
business, and to employ secretary who will
be required to keep register of all debts con-
tracted among the members, when payment is
refused, transfer of wages, chattel mortgages,
&c For instance, if A. B. should contract q
debt with any member of the association and
refuse payment of the same, his name would
be entered upon the books of the association,
with the amount he owes, to whom owed, and
whatever report the trader sees fit to add. If
the above party should offer himself for credit
to any member of the organization, his record
would bar him from cheating again. Organi-
cations of this character have been in operation
for some time in other cities with gre at success.

ANOTHER TRAMP.
Gay and Watson on the Saw-Dust
Track

Gay, the ''boy pedestrian Che is trife
over six feet talD of this city, and Watson, who
is down on the bills as from New York, are
walking at Lancaster Hall for fame-and gate
money.
AT ten minutes past eight o'clock last even
ing MI Mr.. George N. Briggs said "go" and
the two went to work. Gay led, but Watson
followed close behind
The alleged New Yorker is handsome,
shapely young fellow, who is said to be making
his first walk, but who evidently isn't doing
anything of the kind. S. S. Chapman, in the
event OF Watson's success, will challenge him
to walk the same time-27 hours-witk him.
Watson is clearly pedestrian of some expe-
rence, and dangerous antagonist to en-
counter.
AT half-past nine last evening they had made
eight miles and some laps. Tomorrow evening
CAP Haskell will make an exhibition walk of
10 miles, while the others are on the track G.
N. Briggs is referee, III. j.. Flynn and Jerome
Bradbury scorers, and CAL" Haskell and Paige
Dow, Driscoll, Haskell, Briggs and Collins
were present last evening. There was small
audience, but large enough probably to ensure
expenses.
At 2 o'clock this morning Gay retired from
the track, having walked 90 miles and 4 laps.
Watson left the track at 2.45 with % miles and
8 laps. Both were in good condition
