Thirteen Years Ago.

The present winter has been severe,
but the following from the Memphis
Commercial shows what it was in 1879:
During the month Of February 1879, the river
was closed by the ice here for twenty three
days, and boats lay at the landing or ice harbors
near here for all that time awaiting thaw.
The ice gorged the river as low down as Ar
kansas City, 200 miles south Of this, and the
iron steamer Carondelet, Capt. Frank Hicks,
butted passage through it, seven or eight
steamers following through the canal she made
and coming on up the river.

THERE is really not much danger of
war with Chilli, the war talk having
been mostly confined to newspaper cor
respondents. The United States, how
ever, in view of the possibility of being
compelled to enforce it's demands for
apology and reparation on the part of
Chilli, has been obliged to do what
any other nation would have done
under similar circumstances, viz: put
herself in position to enforce her de-
mands in case the necessity should
arise to proceed to such lengths.

She is secure In her own strength, and
knows very well that the world will not

II is a confession of weakness TO be con-

cities got nervous over their returns, and
only made things worse.
