ADJUSTMENTS.
"Oh. what n Nfght!"

This was the apt title of a performance
at the Memphis Theater last night, Mr.
Gus Williams appearing in the leading
character, "Maj. Herman Pottgeiser." The
audience was a good one in point of num-
bers, and seemed to enjoy themselves,
judging from the outlaws which contin-
ually rung cut upon the air, and, as re-
quested in a note on the programme,
kept their seats until the end of Act Ill. "
The first scene is laid in the apartments of
a bachelor who has a married friend and
a variety actress to take tea with him
there. He desires to be married and is
anxious TO rid himself of Celeste" the
actress, and is more than willing to have
his married friend, "Gridley," supplant
him in her affections. He is SO far sue
cessful that Celeste" who lives in the
fiat adjoining "Gridley," arranges to have
him visit her at midnight by cutting away
the banisters which divide their common
balcony. In the second act "Gridiey" is
discovered with "Mrs. Gridley" in theiI
own private apartments He is engaged
in au effort to induce her to go TO sleep in
order that he may keep his appointment
with Celeste" On the other hand she is
anxious to have him retire for fear he will
discover three of her lovers, who sre hid
away in as many closets in her room. 1r
act 3, to the end of which the audience il
desired, in the note alluded to, to remain
Celeste" sweeps the floors of her OWE
apartments with the ong train of a decol
| lete bali dress, begins by raviBg at hel
bachelor friend because he desires to b,
married, embraces the locksmith in ordel
| to delude ''Gridley" into the belief tha
he is her brother, aud engages in a few
other pranks. The medley concludes witt
hoarse carol by Gus Williams. Com

GEORGIA STATE FAIR.
Capt. =. II. Carnes's Four-Year-OId Stall
Hon o. +. G. Has a WaIk-Over.

S. NJ. Besrdsley telegraphed yesterday
afternoon from Macon, Ga: "Colt won
against five starters in three straight
heats. Track ten seconds elow. Ttotted
during rs'n. Time :34}" Capt
Gaines expressed no surprise at his colt
winning, and thinks from the telegram re-
ceived that he had an easy victory, for he
is confident o. T. 9. can, at his present
age, trot on q good mile track in 2 :25 or
2:se. He is Justly proud of his magnifi-
cent young horse, which he recently re.
fused an offer of $500 for cash. and thinks
that in o. F. O. and Strs.hblsne, his stable
companion, he tas two of as highly bred
and desirable trotting stations as can be
fonnd in Kentucky, and with the addition
of his celebrated old thoroughbred stall
lion QuartermasteF, and his Gne brood
mares and colts, he can raske handsomer
display of hieh Sred stock than any man
in TenSe5see. Bellevue farm is credit
to this country, and the liberal patronage
given 1t by our lovers of fine stock is only
another evidence of the enterprise which
is growing with such rapid strides 4
every direction in our section. It is rap,
idly becoming popular teaort for visitors
who delight TO look al the beauties, and
these are shown at all times and with
great pleasure by Mr.. Ray bould, the clever
and enterprising superintendent.

SINCE the East Tennessee, Virginia and
eorgia Railroad Company have taken
ossession of the Memphis and Charles
m Railroad, and run trains through from
,emphis to Bristol, and vice versa, they
ave earned title 70 the public conf
ence that is easily realized in the greatly
lcreased profits and number OF passen-
ers. There is no reason why this line,
,ith its connections in Virginia, Mary
and, Pennsylvania and New Jersey,
hould not almost monopoli7e the busi-
ess from and TO the Mississippi Valley
nd the East. 1t is the shortest and most
irect route, and runs through q eouh-
ry nearly the whole way to Jer-
ey City from Mempbis Of unexam-
lied richness IN minerals as well as
gricultUrsl products, and with its connec-
ions South, and especially that with the
Kansas City railroad at this city, it can be
made in time the equal Of the New York
central or the Pennsylvania Central as a
,ayiug investment. Next Monday, when
| sleeper to run straight through to and
from New York is put on, we predict an
increase Of the popularity that awaits this
road under such prudent management as
is denoted IN the Improvement for the
public convenience which we have indi-
Gated.

THE CUSTOM-HOUSE.
Removal of Col. G. H. Cease, suPerin-
tendeBt of Construction

CJl. G. H. Sease, the superintendent of
construction of the Custom House and
Marine Hospital, whose labors are almost
completed, will be relieved from duty OIL
the 1st of November. He has resided in
Mems his so long that he is by every right
a citizen of Memphis, which can i'll afford
to lose him, now especially, at E
time when she is t4king in new
breath, a new dress, and enters thu
field like a giant refreshed. Col. Sease,
though he has been a Republican in biz
views all his life, has never intruded his
views upon others, and during his resi-
dence in Memphis of some seven years he
has gathered about him a large circle of
warm personal friends, irrespective OF
parties, who respected him for his manly
qualities and admired him for his intelli
gent devotion to his vocation. Wrestl ng,
as he has had TO do, with insufficient appro-
priations, the ENHANCEMENT of red tape and
the slowness and dishonesty of contractors
he has stood Ike Cerberus at the entrance
to the Custom House grounds, but, unlike
him, in that he could not be csjoled with
q cake. Those who would have made
money out of the government will proba-
bly, rejoice because his connection with
the public service is to be severed, but, on
the other hand, all who admire the beau
tiful, the tasteful and the substantial IL
architecture will regret that the ak has
fallen upon the neck of so faithful public
servant. Wherever he may go he will have
behind him a monument to which bis
friends may well point with pride So admi-
rable piece of work, perfect TO the minutest
detail, has never been known in this coun.
try before, and those who are in a position
to know speak of the Custom-House as un-
surpassed, size considered, in the United
states. Col. Seass has not yet made up
his mind, but should he decide to remain
in Memphis his master-hand will be felt
and appreciated in the Improvements
which are now and which will be made
in the near future.

TIE death of Gen. Mcclellan, which oc-
CURED yesterday at his home in Orange,
n. J., will be generally regretted in this
country, and by most Of the leading mill
tary men of Earope, by whom he was held
in higher esteem az = general than he ever
was here. There his work was estimated
from a purely professional standpoint,
here it has never been justly measured,
because of his political proclivlties and his
position as a Democrat. The dominant
party during the war had no confidence in
any soldier OF avowed political views in
opposition 81 their own, and were always
fearful that the popularity of Little
Mac" by which soubriquet Mcclellan was
kncwD 10 the army, would make him the
successor TO Lincoln III 1864. And in this
they were not far wrOng When the vote
of the Presidential election of that year
was counted it was found that Lin
coin had 2,2l6,O67 and Mcclellan I,SOS,-
?25 votes, making the popular majority
of the former only 407, 7,342, and
this with the overshadowing power
of the bayonet and the coercive influences
of the Federal government to overawe
Democrats, the Southern States, of course,
not voting. This was the measure of Gen.
McClellan's popularity with the people,
and it was measure he could be proud
OF. Since the war he sc we'd as Governor oi
New Jersey for one term. This was his only
venture in politics sinee 1864. although hif
name was many times mentioned fol
President in Democratic conventions. He
confined himself to his profession as con.
sultinR civil engineer, and was employed
on many great works in New York anG
vicinity and in the West. Gen. McClel
ian was q modest bat very genial gentle
man and was highly esteemed by society
IN New York City, his receptions being al
ways we'll attended and by the elite o
every State in the Union. He was a typi
cal Democrat, believed in his country an,
its future, and was proud of the distinction
OF American c.tz-n. His place as a sol
dier is still! debated question with thos
who fought on IA Union side
Confederate generals, he yever, of distipC
tiou long ago conceded him a very higI
place among the commanders during tn
Civil War, and there can be little doub
that his retreat during the seven day
battlez and his superb defense at Antietan
will sustain their verdict

VIZ give a great deal OF our space this
morning to the speech delivered yesterday
at Petersburg, Va, by Senator John Sher-
man. 1t is the first sneech delivered at
the South by q Republican statesman
since Sherman himself spoke in Virginia
some five years ago. Il is worthy of note
for that reason, but is especially so for the
disavowai by the speaker that he had
hoisted the bloody shirt in Ohio last
month. or intended in the least degree to
revive tha chickering's and divisions of the
war. The country viii, Of course, be glad
to read this denial, but it would
have come with better grace from
Brother John in Ohio a few
weeks ago. We can afford to accept
this rather tardy explanation, especially
since the Senator is an earnest advocate of
the re- election Of Malone, whose politi-
cal methods have been Just what he
charges so gholy upon the people of South
Carolina, Mississippi and Georgia. Mr..
Sherman is an accommodating politician
and readily reconciles himself to doing as
the Romans do. What he condemns in
he saws about the Marshall and Jefferson
views of the Federal constitution he is
right only in part. Neither Mr.. Jefferson
nor Mr.. Calhoun ever attempted to bring
in to contempt or belittle the Union by
an urdce exa,tstion Of the States. To
them the Union IVES a sacred compact be-
tween sovereign states, in which all were
alike eaual-Rhode Island as Virginia.
But with the explanations and claims
of the Federalists before them
they had reason 60 fear the encroaeh-
ments of consolidated power, and that the
weaker States might become mere prov
inces under the control of the more pow
erful banded together for selfish purposes.
And this or something like it is what Mr..
Sherman is trying to bring about to-day.
He is trying to force the doctrine of pro-
lection by which the manufacturing
the agricultural. HIS cry is always for the
men who are responsible for underfed
and poorly paid woIkingmen, but he
has not one word to say for
the men who produce the raw material
that is the moving cause of the prosperity
and growth Of the country. He has moi
one word to say for the farmers, not one
word to say why the poor negro laborer
whose vote he is so anxious about, should
not be protected by the governmentfro from
the rapacity and greed OF the manufact
urers who have become many times mil
liouaires by the protection granted then
by unjust Federal legislation. Mr.. sher
man is a money man aud the moneyeC
mems friend and advocate. He is a Re
puUfean and not Democrat, a monopol.
protector and not the workingman's frienc
Hence his speech.

New YORK, October 29.-At a large
Democratic CIass-meetipg in Brooklyn to-
night Ex-Gov. Daniel Voorhees, of Indi-

opening sentences ne alluded to the death
of Gen. Mcclellan in a feeling manner
"The heart of the nation will, he said,
"beat heavily to his tomb when he shall
be buried, and tonight the cheeks OF
many veteran are wet with tears" Speak
ing on political subjects, he referred to
the question asked by Judge Foraker,
of Ohio at the recent Republican meeting
in this city, as to what the Democratic
party had done to restore business pros
perity. The speaker would reply by asking,
"What has the Republican party not done
to destroy it" The Democratic party had
not an opportunity, he said, for
quarter of a century to make a sing e
law. 1t had begun its work and be
thought about twelve years would be re-
quired to complete it. Then he proceeded
to an arraignment Of the Republican party
Mr.. Voorhees, was followed by George
L. Converse of Ohio, who delivered sub
stantially the same address as that oi
Tuesday evening before the New York
| County Democracy.
As Mr.. Converse concluded Gov. Hill
the Democratic candidate for Governor
appeared on the stage, and was most en-
Enthusiastically received. He expressed
| thanks for his hearty reception, and spoke
at some length on the issues of the pend

WASHINGTON, October 29.-The annual
report of the chief signal officer is made
public by the Secretary of War to-day.
The report states that the course of in
struction at Fort Myer has been improved,
and now provides for the full education of
the officers and men of the signal corps in
duties required of them in time Of war.
The report expresses regret at the fact
that it has been impossible to drill the men
in handling field telegraph trains, owing
to lack of horses. A desire is expressed
that provisions be made for a supply OF
horses so that the corps may be put in con-
dition to handle field trains in time of war
The report states that is proposed to erect
two stations about fifteen miles apart, to
be used for the purpose of pe,fecting the
men in the use of visual military signals.
The work of the Signal Office during the
past year is fully reviewed, and a number
of suggestions made as to its further i'm

as had reached the Oklahoma district up

full possession, but all seemed harmonious
as between the herders and the boomers,
with no prospect of trouble. From fifty
to sixty wsgon.loads of boomers were
daily arriving upon the grounds.
