COMING EVENTS CASTING THEIR SHADOWS BEFORE
AND GROWING TO BE THE MOST INTERESTING OF
ALL QUESTIONS.
The interest in the summer and fall elections is
commencing to crop out, and within a month the
chances of the different asplrantS for the suffrage
of the sovereign people will be discussed pro and
con with constantly increasing animation. The all
potent argument to the party probabilities will
be the figures of the last contest and will be
more earnestly canyaSsed than those of the con-
gressional struggle, and this being the fact, the
new B. & o. Red Book congressional edition be-
comes almost indispensable. No publication of
political statistics ever made equals it in extent of
information given, or in comprehensive arrange
ment. 1t shows not only the result of the cleo
ton of $780, the result as well of the election of
1878 The Republican, Democratic and Greenbaek
vote for the two elections is presented separately
and comparisons made of gains or losses of the diff
ferent parties. Total votes also the subject of
comparison, and this exhaustive showing is made
of every congressional district in the Union by
counties. The book is one of one hundred and
twelve pages, Is marvel of typographical beauty,
being printed upon an elegantly-fnished paper,
and the cover is of the mos equiste things in
the way of artistic designs issued for many year.
The Red Book is b. & o. publication intended
for something above the ordinary circulation, and
to this end is sent only where requests made to
e. K Lord e. r A, Baltimore, Md, for It by mail
and incloSlng three-cent stamp. The Red Book
will thus be mailed to all who may write to Mr..
Lord for it. and certainly those who receive it will
not part with it for almost any money, so exceed
ingly valuable textbook is ii for all who ara in
terested in or care aught for political statistics

His tall frame lowered UP over the small reading
desk, so that he was obliged to stoop to read the
manuscript of the sermon, to which he was closely
confined during the discourse. At times however
he would
REMOVE HIS EYEGLASSES
and indulge in an extempore fight of rhetoric
which was much more effective than the written
portions. He is not an unattractive speaker, and
has Deep powerful voice, which is capable OF
making good deal of noise. His discourse, which
was upon the subject suggested by the day, was
listened to with appreciative attention by the con-
gregation. After liberal paraphrase of that por-
ton of the Scriptural narrative which details the
RECORDED MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST
after His resurrection. the preacher spoke of the
effect and result of this great event. The res
direction of Christ revived the dropping hopes Of
the disciples. What these hopes were exactly
we are unable to say, but they no doubt embraced
much of temporal and spiritual good In spite of
all Christ had said in his public and private min
istrations in regard to the resurrection, the
conception of the resurrection of the dead
had not entered the thoughts of his disciples.
They were slow to believe that the resurrec-
ton had really taken place. But when once
convinced they accepted it freely, and spoke oft
at all times. This is one of the proofs that the
resurrection was fact and which was strength
ened by their changed lives. From timid, irreso-
lutte men they became strong and determined In
conclusion, the preacher spoke of the practical
force of this event entering into the lives of men
and enabling them to live noble lives and die no.

GOTTA.
An establishment which sup.
plies q Growing Want Ota
Memphis.

Mr.. T. j. Graham, a well-known
and popular young citizen Of Memphis,
has established a depot for the storage
and sale of sewer and stove pipes, and
everything in the terra Gotta line
likely to be used or required in this
market. A neat and tasteful specimen
of the stock he carries may be seen in
Court square, near the front gate. The
two vases recently presented to the
city would adorn any private yard.
His stock includes chimney tops and
iue Innings, such as are coming into
general use in other cities, lawn and
hanging vases, and also fire brick,
tiles, aud fine ground fire clay.
Mr.. Graham is agent for McMahan,
Porter&C Co, of Northumberland, W. Va,
manufacturers on a large scale of these
articles and others in the same line in
great variety. They manufacture their
pipes, with all necessary fittings, in
most approved patterns, from a very
superior clay, rarely found, which is
mined at the doors of their works. 1t
is made firm and solid by great steam
pressure, and at a temperature that
would melt ordinary oarthenware, is
glazed with salt, (nOt requiring the
slip glaze, as is the case with inferior
clay. and becomes thoroughly vitri-
fed, and of the same nature as glass,
and is, therefore, indestructible by the
action of acids, gases, steam, frost or
time. This pipe, it is believed, is Pc
culiarly adapted and suitable for the
soft, damp soil of Memphis. They
also manufacture a fine clay pipe from
six to twenty-four inches in diameter
expressly for chimneys, which is des-
tined to come into general use. It's
utility, safety and cheapness give gen
eral satisfaction. Chimney tops are
sold to fit these pipes, which give a
very pretty finish, as well as keep out
rain and snow.
Mr.. Graham makes a speciality Of
sewer pipes, stove pipes, chimney
tops, drain tiles and vases, and keeps
on hand a large and varied stock at
his depot on South Court street near
Second. In addition to his regular
supply of goods, he has on hand for
sale very cheap, a large lot of second
class pipes suitable for drains.

About ten o'clock last night Mr.. H.
P. Denies, son of the well known miller
and coal dealer, was missed from the
deck of the transfer steamer Pierson,
as she lay on the opposite shore await
ing the arrival of the passenger train
from the west. The young man had
been Waterman on the boat for four
or five months past, and shortly before
the accident was fishing on the outer
guards. 1t is thought while sitting on
the forward bits he became sleepy
and nodded over so hat he tell into
the river. His lamp was found near
the spot where he wat last seen, and
where he is supposed to have left it
when he sat down. A reward Of 800
was offered for the recovery of his re.
mains. The young man was twenty
five or thirty years of age and resided
in Chelsea, where he leaves a young
wife and child to mourn his loss.
