The Southwestern Music House OF III.
q. HOlIenberg.

In our personals 10 day we notice the ar
rival of Mr.. Otto L. Braumuller, from Allan
ia, Ga. In conversation, we learned that he
comes to make Memphis his home for the
future, having accepted an engagement for \
prominent position in Hollenberg's Music
House.
Mr.. Braumuller is gentleman of culture
and of . high order OF ability in the music
business, having for the last five years been
intimately connected with the well-known
music house OF Mesers. Ludden & Bates, of
Savannah, Ga, partly as manager of their
Atlanta (Gs.) house, and alec a. business
partner OF the firm.
We hope that Memphis will prove attrsc-
tive to him, and also to Mrs. BraumulIer,
who lie. we understand, a lady artist of dis
tinciion, having at different periods studied
in The best schools OF painting in Europe.
The accession of so able an assistant must
necessarily prove q great advantage TO this
already extensive and well-known establish
ment.
Mr.. Hol!enberg informs rs that he will
withdraw his branch retail music house from
Little Rock, which he has carried on there
since the epidemic of 1879, when many Of
our prominent business men branched out
similarly. The danger from epidemics
having now entirely disappeared, Mr.
Hollenberg finds it more profitable 10 con-
cenlrste all bis business here, having been
identified with Memphis since 1858. He
will supply customers from here with those
famous pianos OF William Knsbe & Co., and
Cbickerlng & Sons, and the equally renowned
organs OF Burdetf, Sterling. and Bay State
Company, for which he holdsthe valuable sole
agencies for his territory of West Tennesses,
Arkansas, Northern Mississippi aud Ala
bams, through judicious and liberal sdyer-
Using and an able and competent corps of
travelling statesmen and tuners; and solicifs a
continuance of the confidence and liberal
patronage heretofore 50 literally bestowed on
him.
After the war, Mr.. Hollenberg had, like
many of our business men, 10 start anew, and
il speaks we'll for him, that from those small
beg innings, through all the hardships by
which Memphis has been beset in the last
fifteen year,, he has built mp BY pluck, en-
terprise and fair dealing, and decided abili-
ty IS a practical. piano maker and reliable
business man, single handed, music hous.
the peer of any south Of New York, and OF
which Memphis msy be justly proud. M.
n. has DOW large capital invested in his
business, and enjoys high standing COM

The Mason Matter.

II is pretty well understood that one OF the
principal points upon which the judge adyo-
cate general bases his opinion In the Mason
Gaze is That the charge of assault with intent
10 kill was not fully established by the evil
dence presented. Another point said TO have
been raised by Gen. Swain is that Mason was
not arralgned on proper charge, as the most
serious offense from military point Of view
was scditious conduct, under circumstances
that might have resulted in mutlny among
the soldiers serving with him at the time.
The approval Of the report by the president
would result in the discharge of Mason from
custody, and render him exempt from further
procee dings on the part of this military an.
fhorit;es for the same offense.
SWAIN SUGGESTS LIGHT SENTENCE.
The Judge advocate says thai while Sergeant
Mason cannot on the evidence be considered
guilty of the specific ofIense of assault with
intent TO kill, as charged and found by the
court, yet his conduct in recklessly discharg-
ing his musket at Guiteau's cell and his
determined declarations made at the time tended
in high degree to endanger the good order of
The troops then present, as well as to disturb
the public tranquility, and the court should
have so found as lesser kindred offense to
that alleged by making the necessary excep-
tinns aad substitute consistent findings.

Pretended Psnitence of Navin.

ADRIAN, Mich, March 2s.-Du-ing the ex
animation of Ralph Jewett, and Francis
Stanton for conspiracy in connection with
Mayor Navin's bogus water bonds, it was de.
veloped that NavIn since his flight has written
letters to Jswett on the Both of March from
Chicago. The envelope was in another hand
than Navn's. The letter was devoted to
consoling Jeweft over his arrest
as an accomplice and to vindi-
eating him from any connection
with The transaction, except as an innocent
agent. Navin offers to come back and go TO
states prison rather than allow Jewett to suffer
wroDgfully on his account. He says he has
suffered greatly for the crime and means to
pay every cent he owes. He will not, he says,
be able to repair the wrong done Jewett and
Stanton in lying and deceiying them.
