MtENDIARY FIRn.
Fort Isickeriog Grocery Bufhed
10 the Ground.

A two story brick building, corner
Second and Coffey streets, Fort Pick
ering. burned last night about one
o'clock. 1t was formerly the Office of
the woolen mills which were burned
several years ago, but recently occu-
pied by Fox and MCCLURE as grocery
store. The FIRE caught near the coal
oil barrels and the building burned
like tar kiln. Nothing was saved.
Tom Shoots, an employee Of the city
scavenger, says he was passing the
place when the blaze first showed out
side the building and could have
stopped the flames but did not like to
take the responsibility Of breaking the
door, as no one else was present. The
fire vas evidently incendiary. Fox &
Mcclure value their stock on $1,000
and had $500 insurance. Building be-
longed to 7. Fl. Milburn.

THE DOUBLE HANGING.
Points About the Coming Exec n
ton OfRivers and Matthew 4.

Preparations for the hanging of Bill
Rivers and Sandy Matthews on the
ID Of June next have already begun.
They are to be hung in the Jail yard
near noon. The probability is that
both will leap into eternity at the
same instant. The only difficulty in
the way of carrying out the programme
is a possible difference in faith. Sher.
if Athy is determined that theservices
on the Scaffold shall be in accordance
With the religion of each, even if the
hangman has to make two bites at this
rather unpalatable cherry. Bill
Rivers was baptized in the Catholic
faith on Sunday last, Rev. Father
Aloysius officiating. A few days ago
the Sisters Of La Salette Academy
presented Sandy Matthews with
a suit Of clothes and it is
said he lately expressed a
wish to embrace the Roman Catholic,
faith, Two or three persons in ina
city have already intimated their will
llngneSs to perform the last of. oes for
the pair, but Sheriff Athy hes not vet
made selection.

An Inspection station 10 be Esa
tabIished at Presidents
Island.

Only one case Of smallpox was re.
ported yesterday. There are now FIVE
cases in the city. The pesthouse still
holds its own. The cases in the city
are all isolated.
The Board Of Health will hold q
meeting this evening, to which DR..
Mitchell, resident member of the
National Board of Health, has been
invited. The question Of taking a
census before the usual summer hegira
sets in. will be discussed.
An inspection station will probably
be established on Presidents island
the 10Th instant. of which it is said
DR.. Black will have charge. AS Con-
gress has not in its wisdom seen fit to
make an appropriation, the expense
viii have to be borne by the
local government. 1t is possible
they will not pay $500 a month. After
the establishment of the quarantine
vessels carrying cargoes in which pes
thence is likely to lurk will not be
permitted to land at Memphis.
While the city fathers are making
appropriations, it would be well enough
to appropriate horse for the use Of
the Secretary of the Board of Health.

tated on the dumpboat some weeks

Their logs broke out yesterday after
noon, and went adrift in scattering

them up st cam against the current to

this morning another feet of the same
broke out Of Wolf and followed after

and driving with her son-in-law, MIR.
Wells, with all the zest of a person
half her age, yet there are marks Of
care and sorrow on her brow, for she
has buried six sons and her husband.
When asked if she was not afraid to
start on boat in such a storm, her
reply was: mo, l have faced many
storms through life, and | feel as if /
am in the hands of God, let it be by
land or water" The day before her
departure she had about forty callers,
who came to express their friendship
and regrets at her leaving; others
were kept away by the rainstorm that
afternoon. She parted with her many
friends and started on her long jour
ney in the best of spirits. Many good
wishes follow for her comfort, safety
and happiness.
