On Wednesday, june LIST, there will
be a formal opening Of the Memphis
Driving club, at Olympic park, for
the benefit of the orphans, and the
owners of the following horses tave
consented to let their horses trot.
Mile heats, two best in three:
First Race-Purse, $25; Lucy, Gus
T. and a Dark one.
Second Race-Purse, $25; Lulu,
Mamie G., Arkansaw.
Third Race-Purse, $50; Stamps,
Maud, Nellie G..
And the following horses have been
entered for the running race, half
mile and repeat; purse, $25; Daylight,
Oak Grove. Rose, Dark Horse.
From the assurances we have from
the officers of the club, we do not hes
itate in saying that this will be one Of
the best (if not the very best)
entertainments of the kind ever given
in Shelby county, and all should join
hands in endeavoring to make it a
success. The laudable purposes for
which it is given should induce all to
assist, and we would suggest that on
the afternoon of that day all business
houses give vacation to their en-
pleyes, that they may be able to at
tend.

The concert to come eff at the theater
tomorrow night promises 10 be very at
tractive, IS the programme contains many
beautiful selections, well calculated to
please the cultivated musical ear. This
will bethe last opportunity the public will
have Of of hearing our popular fvoritc,
Miss Jennie Jones, for some time, as the
lady anticipates an extended visit to Bos-
ton, to place herself under vocal in
struction there. Not the least
attractive of the features on the
programme Of the proposed concert will
be three numbers to be performed on the
piano by pupils Of Mrs. Fits, who, in
connection with Mr.. w. II. Stanley, will
give the concert. A handsome gold medal
IS to be awarded to that n Of the trio
Of pupils who exhibits the greatest tech
meal ability, dexterity and skill in the
performance Of her respective solo, and
the award will be made by three compe-
tent musical judges selected for the occa-
sion. By reference to tho programme IT
will be observed that 3 choice list Of vocal
and instrumental music has been arranged,
and a liberal attendance Of our fashion,
able people is anticipated.

THE MOST PLAUSIBLE reason VIII y John
W. Garrett, President of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad, has not appeared in
person before the Delaware Legislature
aud urged the passage Of the Delaware
Western Railroad bill, is that the Presi.
dent has been ia Europe and does not
expect to return for some weeks yet.
He has left his business temporarily in
the hands Of his son Robert Garrett
sho has given every assurance and Ia
prepared to even give more assurances
that tbs Baltimore & Ohio Company is
in earnest and really wants the Della
ware Western bill to pass. The I leads
Of the Delaware Western bill say that

neers would now already be surveying

the year, 1t requires only some such
feasible plan as Mr.. Rooney suggests
to make part Of the taxes payable in
March, or April. Those who look at
tn W plans proposed cannot fail to
sse that while the bill before the Leg
ista'ure ADDS $4,000 to the bonded
debt, which will quire four years ard
an increased rate Of ;sxsti IN to pay of,
Alr. Rcdney's pan avoids this delt
entirely, and provides effectually fer
the d tioulty, without any increase Of
debt whatever. Tie pending bill be-
fore the Legislature should be closely
examined and looked into before it re-
ceives Legislature sanction.

TAB SPEAKER of the House OF Repre-
sentatives at Dover clearly owes al
apology to Mr.. Bradford, member o
the Legislature from Wilmington. The
latter. in q manly, straight forward
manner, made an explanation tina,
needed no apology, and had it needed
one he would not have shrunk from
making it. The Speaker has injured
himself by the miserable apology of an
apology that he has made, and be must
yet make an apology or lose influence
and character as tair and impartial
presiding officer.

gradually absorbed the surplus laft on

movements. In conversation with some
Of our real estate agents, builders and
contractors VS. were led toconclude that
the demand for small dwelling houseo
was never 80 great. This indicates in
creased activity in our manufactures
which has drawn settlers here from the
country and other cities. The larger
and more costly dwellings still con.
tinue in limited demand while the
is that If the number Of small
dwellings, were doubled in the building
permits Of 1881, the whole volume Of
them would be- absorbed by tenants and
purchasers. This then appears to be

rs the principal source Of increase of
the population and wealth Of Whining
ton. Perhaps one reason for the de,
mand for smaller dwellings lies in the
'act that the most Of them erected of
