The contract for erection Of the
buildings was let out to the firm Of
Brosnan & Rich, although it is inti-
mated that others bid lower. Their
character for promptness and good
work doubtless had something to do
with this. Be this as it may, their
work was finished yesterday, and the
officers Of tho company and others pro-
nounced it a splendid job. 1t was
pushed through in the face of bad
weather, the food, the difficulty in
procuring labor and other trouble, in
fifty days, including Sundays, which
was two weeks sooner than originally
expected. The building is two and a
half stories high, and is monument Of
soIidity, neatness and architectural
proportion. 1t was rushed through
in quicker tine than any similar work
that was ever done in the city. Two
towers crown the front corners, and
present a solid, imposing appearance.
The arrangement throughout is con-
venient and admirable. The main
floor is so packed underneath that it rs
solid as limestone. The machine shop
is SKIS feet, and the pattern room
above is the same. The entire estab-
lishment is well lighted and ventilated,
it is convenient and accessible, and
the Office will be comfortable and
elegant. Rooms for the directors are
overhead, in the second floor. A two
inch FIRE hose is well distributed, an
iron roof covers the foundry proper
and a gravel the rest. Wagons can
pass entirely through, from Front to
Promenade streets, and in doing so
will cross a pair of scales, which reg
listers in the office. "a
Now for business. Their first run
will probably be made next Saturday
The company already has a number 0e
orders, among them one from the
government for four heavy iron gates
for the National Cemetery at Fort
Scott, in Kansas; another from the
Memphis Gas Company for heavy
work, heretofore donein Philadelphia;
another from DR.. D. 7. Porter for a
fence around his residence on Vance
street. and SO on. There will be no
lack of orders, and the. Superintendent
expects that in ninety days it will be
necessary to run day and night, and
thus employ two gangs of men. About
one hundred will be employed at the
start. A side track will connect with
The railroad so that material can be
thrown off and goods shipped in all
directions at the back door, A car
load of iron and one of coke have
been ordered from Birmingham, and
if this proves as satisfactory
as expected the order viii be
continued. This is the largest
iron works in the city, and has
every facility that could be desired.
Coal is cheap, and can be had easily
from North Alabama, Western Ken
lucky, Pittsburg aud elsewhere. There
will not be another coal famine. The
works will turn out engines, gin cast
ings, architectural, steamboat and
railroad work, fancy fences, ands in
fact, everything in the line made any
where. There is room in Memphis
aud business for dozen such estab-
lishments, and we begin to feel that
the long talked OF era of manufacturing
has set in. If the people put as much
money and energy into manufacturing
as they have 10 cotton in the last zen
years. the end Of another decade will
fnd Memphis the most prosperous city

Hendricks on His Colleagues.

The Madison Qnd.) Courier prints a
retrospect by ex-Gov. Thomas A. Hem
bricks of his Senatorial career The
ex-senator regards Rever,ly johnson rs
the ablcst lawyer in the Senate during
his term. Charles Sumner, he SAYS,
succeeded in having more of his views
embodied in tile laws of the country
than any other man. McDougal, of
California, exceled all in speeches
made on the spur of the moment. Hen.
ry S. Lane, of Indiana. had few superb
ors as an orator. Gov. Grimes. of Iowa,
was as pure man as ever entered pub
lie life. Collamer, of Vermont, was re-
markabIe for ingenuity in debate.
Anthony never gave offence. and was
highly successful. Buck alew, of Penn
sylvania, was debater of rare force,
and produced during the stress of his
Senatorial duties the ablest book that
has been written on minority represen-
talon. Cowan, of the same S ale, al
ways came into discussion at the height
Of the controversy and was able to
maintain himself against great odds.
Garret Davis was the most fearless de-
baicr he ever saw, but not always con-
siderate. Doolittlp, of Wisconsin, was
the finest orator. Fessen,Ien, of Maine,
was the ablest Senator his Stale has
produced. He never left a point ul.-
answered, and was the rea,liest man in
the body. John P. Hale was brilliant,
but not s'udious. and repeated himself.
John Sherman was always prepared for
action. Trumbull was eminent as q
lawyer and debater. Gov. Morton was
an able leader. but extreme in his ex.
pressions; strength and earnestness
were his peculiarities.

Still Larger.

An enterprising tobacconist in Lon
don, whose name was Far. advertised
himself anil his wares simultaneously
by writing up in conspicuous lettering
over his store, 'The best tobacco by
Far" A rival on the opposite side of
the way, not to be outlone, at once
proclaimed the superiority of his stock
by advertising, Ear better tobacco than
the best tobacco by Far" This reminds
the New York JfaH OF the story of the
miner who. returning from the far West
to civilization, saw sign up outside a
show, "The largest bear in the world"
After paying his twenty-five cents and
enjoying the sight, he not ced another
sign across the street, Lager beer"
and at once returned and demanded
his money back, on the ground that it
had been extorted under false preten-
ces, as there was larger bear over the
WaV.

In An Insane Asylum.

The Springfield Republican saws that
among the inmates Of Western insane
asylum Is man who Is often perfectly
sensible. and when aeco,ted at such
times causes visitors TO wonder why he
Is confined there. This inmate entered
into conversation the other day with q
caller whose dress proclaimed him n
clergyman. Said. the madman. "It
was tuo bad. was it not, the killing of
Grant at ChicagoP" ''It was" said
the minister. who followed the accepted
custom of asserting to the statements Of
lunatics for peace's sake. Hayes was
assassinated at Cincinnati, was he not?'
again asked the lunatic. Yes" re-
piled the clergyman. "And was not
Queen Victoria murdered in her pal
ace?' 10 this query from the mailman
the clerical visit II once more answered
in the affirmative. The lunatic named
one after another dozen living royal
personages. all of whom the clergyman
was led to admit had been put out of
the way. Finishing his catechsm, the
mailman turned on the clergyman and
said fiercely: "Your dress shows you
are a minister. but you are the worst
liar ever met"

Leaye-taking,

Not all have learned the art of leave
taking in an appropriate manner.
When you are abou, to depart. do so at
once, gracefully and politely, and with
no dallying. Don't say. "It's about
time was going" and then settle back
and talk on aimlessly for another ten
minutes. Some people have just such q
tiresome habit. They will even rise
and stand about the room in various at
titudes, keeping their hosts also stand
ing, and then by an effort succeed in
getting rs far as the hall. when q new
thought strikes them. They brighton
up visibly and stand for some minutes
longer. saying nothing of importance,
but keeping everybody in a restless,
nervous state. After the door is opened
she prolonged leave-taking begins, and
everybody in general and particular is
invited to call. Very likely last
thought strikes the departing visitor.
which his friend must risk cold to
hear to the end. What q relief when
She door is finally closed! There is no
need of being Extensively abrupt, but
when you are ready to go-go.

A Slight Error,

"How lovely, how very lovely she is"
1t was at an evening party. The
speaker was tall, paIe-faced young
man. who stood with folded arms in the
shallow of bay-window, quietly con-
templative, rs if he had no share in the
gay scrne before him.
"Can his words be meant for mep"
muttered a suprrannuated coquette,
casting side glances at her reflection in
the mirror. 'Yes, I'm sure they were,"
she added, and something like blush
spread over her bony features. Then
she tripped lightly 10 the side of her
hostess and asked:
"Who is that very interesting looking
young man. Mrs. Potts, standing by
the Window"
"Oh," returned Mrs. Potts, 'that's

wouldn't think it, but he's stone blind"
