Husband.

NJ. Damals, the husband of Sara Bern
hardt, has written letter 10 one Of The Paris
newspapers, announcing his retirement from
the stage, and his intention of resumiRg his
old profession Of soldier. He says that it
is not true that he and his wife are about TO
separate. The rumors that they were about
to separate have had their foundation in his
retirement from the stage. France" he
continues, (which treats my wife like d
spoiled child, will, l hope, have room for
me under the shadow of her flag. Being
passionately fond of the stage, deceived my
self as 10 the possibility Of at once taking
place not too unworthy Of that which my
wife occupies in the front rank. But not
withstanding the indulge with which l
was received, l must be more severe toward
myself than the press aud the public have
been. Reason and honor call upon me TO
take manly resolution, and therefore / re.
nounce my dream Of being an actor, and re-
sumo the career Of arms. This very day l
enlist in the foreign legion, and solicit the
favor Of letters OF grand naturalization" NJ.

The interviews with we'll known citizens
and business men, which we publish this
morning, are 20 many additional and over
whelming proofs OF the determination oil the
people not TO permit the laying of any mere
weod pavements in Memphis. They want
etone, either in blocks or in the Telford or
Macadam form, the former preferred, but
they will not have any more Nicolson, whether
of pine, cedar or cypress. Every scientific
sanitsrian in Europe and America has
opposed the use Of wood pavement, especial
" in humid climates like ours. The reason
for this is go plain that it is a matter Of
astoniehmeut taat even the least thoughtful
OF men cannot see it. Forests and swamrs
are 6iltd with malaria az result of decay
ing vegetation-leaves, twiggs, branches and
fallen trees. The moment tree is felled,
life has ended, decay sets in and it lie more
rapid Is it is exposed to atmospheric action.
The most recent discoveries in scierce
declare, paradoxisAl as it may seem, that
what we see as decay the microscope reveals
as another form Of Lille, which is in the high
est degree dangerous to aud is often destruc-
tive of animal life. l. was in this way thst
the rottiug Nico!son pavement, of which We
had thirteen miles in 1878, was so potent
as indus for the yellow-lver poison
which killed go many of our people and
threatened the trade and commerce of the
city with extinction. o. this account the
APPEAL has consistently opposed the put
ting down OF aay more wood pavement. 1t
is opposed TO any further experiments, at
leas: at the expense OF the lives OF the people.
These are above all price, above all personal
indulgence, caprice or within, and should
weigh ia the scale with all well-intentioned
men against the desires Of contractors or
paientees or the obstinate destruciiveness
which would plant itself between Memphis.
