RATHER SEVERE.
Another Denial of the Rash Statement
of "Byrne.-

To the Editors of the Memphis Appeal:
CRocKETT's BLUFF, February 3.-Hav-
ing read letter in your paper of JAN
uary 18th, signed by "Byrne," in which he
speaks very commercially of the citizens OF
Arkansas for putting down the liquor traffic,
have to say we did "put it down." and in
doing so did nothing more than our duty
neither did this gentleman do any more tn an
any man could do who was paid for it. But
| must say he has done what no gentleman
could do-come into country expecting to
make it his home and be cordially welcomed by
its citizens after speaking of our ladies in the
mean, contemplate way that he has. We.
people OF Arkansas, welcome any man who
will come and join us a citizen, but he
must mind his own business, and especially
moi tamper with our heart-strings, as he does
when he attacks our ladies. His letter would
not be noticed had it been put in our county
paper, but it is calculated to produce wrong
impression where we are not known. Byrne
says nine-tenths of our ladies dip" and the
other tenth "either chew tobacco or smoke it"
have lived in this county twenty years. and
during that time have seen six ladies dip and
two old ladies (whe were not born herel
smoke. How is it that this gentleman, who
has been here but three months, knows the
ladies better than the old citizens? And
again, this opiate use that he speaks of. His
nerves must nave Deeil uhder some great ex-
element when he condemns so strongly the
use OF a drug by the ladies which his con-
ditIon shows he has great need of. Having
no personal knowledge OF the extensive use
of opiates that Mr.. Byrne seems to have, am
inclined to believe he is mistaken; and even
if he is not, who or what makes him our
ladies' mentor? Our ladies look upon this
gentleman as some God-forsaken insect, who
can creep, buzz and fly-blow, but for fear of
soiling their fingers, self-respect has spared
him. And we, gentlemen, would have waited
upon him instantly, but realizing the fact
that jackass is known by his bray, we let
the matter remain unnoticed. JUSTICE.

which. of Course, Means the Young
Ladies' Protective Association.
Nashville Banner.


At meeting OF young ladies, held last
night, the Young Ladies' Protective Associa-
ton was formed, with one hundred and five
members. There were forty-six Gainsbor-
ough hats present, and most of the members
wore red plush jackets and bangs. A young
lady residing on Vine street was called to
preside, and delegate from East Nashville
was chosen secretary. The temporary presi-
dent, after arranging her kiss curls and care
fully adjusting her lemon-hued collar, stated
that the meeting had been called for the or
ganization of society for the defense of the
members thereof from the attacks oil the
Young Mems Protective Association, which
were Just too awfully mean for anything,
and she didn't care who heard her say So
either. She did not know, she said, what
the ladies present intended to do, but as for
herself she was going to wear her Gainsbor-
ough hat whenever and wherever she pleased,
and if the boys didn't like her style they
could go with somebody else. The speaker
then sat down, and the work OF organization
continued until completed.
The appended preamble and resolutions
were adopted:
WHEREAS, Woman was created after man,
and has been after him ever since; and,
whereas, ancient and modern history teaches
that woman is as good man, and very
often a great deal better; and, whereas, from
the time of Eve down TO the Both OF Janu-
airy, 1882, woman has always done as she
wanted to, and made man do pretty much
the same thing; therefore be it
ResolUed, That we will not, after this date,
accompany to the theater, church or other
place, any young man who smokes, drinks,
chews or plays cards.
Be il further resolved That we will stand
on this platform OF independence till Gains
borough hats are recognized by young men
as necessary adjunct to female attire.
Be Il further resotued, That all SOCIAL and
M atr 5agenents existing between
members Of this association and anti-Gains-
borough young men are hereby dissolved.
The association then adjourned

RAILROAD VS.. EXPRESS.
The Iron Mountain Railroad and South
ern Express CompaDy's Suit.

ST. LOUIS, February 7.-Argument in the
suit Of the Southern Express Company Is.
the Iron Mountain Railroad Company was
heard to-day in the United States Circuit
Court, by Justice Miller, of the United
States Supreme Court; Judge McCrary, of
the United States Circuit Court, and Judge
Treat, OF the United States District Court
The express company was represented by
Senator Edmunds, OF Vermont; Clarence A.
Seward, of New York, and Judges Whitfield
and Campbell, OF Mississippi, and Swayne,
of Washington. The Iron Mountain Com
pany was Represented by Messrs. Ports,
Broadhead, Glover, Shipley and Brecken-
ridge, OF ST. Louis. The suit had its origin
in March, 1880. The Iron Mountain Rail-
road Company notified the Southern Express
Company that the contract between the two
corporations was terminated, and that the
railroad company had gone into the express
business for itself. The express company
determined to make a stubborn fight for its
rights, and on March 81, 1880, a bill in
equity was filed in the United States Circuit
Court here asking for a temporary iniunc-
ton to restrain the Iron Mountain Company
from interfering with the Southern Express
Company. Judge Treat made an order on
the 18th of last May calling on the Iron
Mountain Company to appear and show
cause why the injunction should not be
granted. Finally an injunction was granted,
and has been maintained from time to time,
awaiting the decision which will follow to.
