LOCAL PARAGRAPHS.Of all the ugly days, yesterday was

certainly the ugliest that we have hadthis winter.

There wore five arrests in the FirstDistrict yesterday up to five o'clock, andthe same number in the Second.

A gold-tippe- d billiard cue will lievoted to the most opular tiilliard saloonin Ihe city, at the Catholic Fair, thisevening.

By a slip of the types or the pen, wowere made to say the Kov. Norwood andBeecher. It should read the Rev. "Nor-wood" Beecher.

If anything can be worse than thecondition of 6ur streets, it is that of ourside-wal- ks and "wisy-vvers- as SamWeller would say.

Attention is called to the advertise-ment of Dr. Russel's dispensary. No. 42North Court street. It is said to bo theoldnst and best institution of the sort inthe Southwest.

Officer Dillon, of the First District,yesterday arrested Tom Molloy on ehargeof being an escap d convict from Mis-souri. Jilolloy proved a goed characterand was discharged.

We learn that the Rev. Father Tracyhas decided not to canvass our city, atpresent, in aid of his church at Hiints-vill- e,

but has determined to wait untillater in the season, lia leaves for hishome

The'lo vees looked gloomy enough yes-terday, and the riviy was lis wintry anddark "as the skies above it. Few personscared, even with the chance of makingmoney, to brave the mud and slush, so thelevee "was almost deserted.

We understand that an effort was orwill be made by the gentleman who foundthe poor unfortunate spoken of by us afew days aao, to get hor into some institu-tion, either in Philadelphia or New York,where she CM be reclaimed if there' is anygood left In her.

A dispatch was received yestoniay byF. M. Man m, " President" of tho newBoard." from New York, announcingthat the money necessaay to complem theLittle Rock Railroad was ready and wait-ing his check, if the " new Board " is sus-tained by the Courts.

We regret to learn that the Infantchild of Mr. J. W. Smith, of the firm of

oung A Co., fell from the anus of itsnur e, yesterday evening, on the brickpavement, and sustained injuries whichwill probably nrovo fatal. We sincerelyI Or-- l hat our friend maybe spared thisbeioavemeut.

A communication from " M." gives aflattering account of tho progress made incomposition by th- - young ladies whowriLolor a magazine published by thePhilological Soaaty of the Memphis lo

Seminary. We regret that we can-not publish his eomaiunicatioii. but unitewith him in congratuiaiim- - 'he youngcontribuiors ujicn their proiieieuey.

For tho purpree of assist njr to re-

establish ihe levee syttem in Arkansas,Mississippi and Louisiana, Senator Kel-logg, of Louisiana, has iss .ied a bill whichprovides for the guarauico by the UnitedSlates of the principal and interest of cer-tain bonds to be issued by the States ofArkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana, un-der direction of a Board of Commissioners,to be protected by the levying of a tax forpayment of interest, and the mortgagingof the swamp and other State lands to theUnited Slates.

The " lieautiful snow," paidus a living visit ves'.erdav. 1 lie nir wasfoil of it at intervals, but owing to tho i

' moist ' condition ot tiie coat o f mudwith which our City Fathers have causedthe Nieolson pavement to bo covered, itdid not tarry long in sight after hittingthe earth. If we must have " snow i'theiair," wo would dearly love to see a man-tl- a

of it spread over the city. We havorarely seen the air, even in high latitudes,fuller of it than during ono or two flurriesyesterday.

Mr. Burns a farmer residing in thevicinity of CI::reimon, Ark yesterdayleft at our ollice a stone pipe such as wasformerly much in use By tue aboriginalinhabitants of tho Mississippi valley. Inplowing a field a year ago he came unnthis relic, which is an admirabl" sp; oimeiiof the rough artistic skill of the Indians.It represents a human bate in tho atti-tud- o

of the most humble and devout wor-ship, carved in sandstone, which liearssome traces of mineral contact. It is acuriosity calculated to " excite our specialwonder," and to induce speculation as tothe origin of the North American Indians.

Because th-- - almanac says that thenighis are " moonlight " at present, it isno " sign " that they are so. The gascompaay, however, seem to think that iti, and have no: listen the gas, though thonights have been black as Erebus. We,in cominen w it ii everyone whose businessOT pleasure calls them to lie on the streets j

at night, protest against- this as an out- -'

rage not to be tolerated longer ihan wecan possibly help. Tho city and her poo-l- a

are in the anacouda toils of the g.is j

We regret lo announce tho suddendeath, vrhieb. occurred from an apoplecticstroke on Monday last, near Kcoxville,Tenn.. of George W. Harris, lietiorknown under the name of "S.i: Loven-good- ."

Mr. Harris was a printer, andwrole the first of the 'Luv. ngood Pa-pers" which have since become widciyknowu not only la this country but inEurope whiie working at tho case on acountry paper fal Central Alabama, aboutlivvl or 4. His iii-s- ; essays were, e think,

Daddy Playing Bow and "Sul Loven-giv.d- 's

Shirt," and though ho wro;o iihiioHa ptlttina; tUosa afterward, uone can

equal these lor ouiriijcotis fun and devil-try. Mr. JI arris punii-be- d a bopk Of hissketches immediately after tlM war. whichme: wilb a very large sale. He hail

DMeired the appointment ot someAlabama railroad, and was on his way, wesuppose, io assuafkr utsduiuts vlidi deathovertook him. Ie leaves a host offriends who will sincerely mourn his loss.

Alcorrespoudent, " Chioora." writinga few dan since troui Indian Bay, Ark.,saysoflhat place: " Our little settlement,or. In other words, modified city, with all ''

its present progressive improvements andadvantages, bids fair at no very distantday o liecouie a 4 very city and com-mercial and cotton emporium for all thesurrounding country. The uiimerous fiiifroads centerinir here from all parts of theadjoining counties, otter suporior induce- - j

and of which many now avail themselvesin preference to other points nearer.Crops this season are generally verygood with us. Many f.eedmeu have done

One of the latest, and to onr mind byfar, tfafl most beautiful In design, color

'

and execution, of Prang's chromolitbs, isnow on exhibition in this city. The pic-- Iture is about eighteen HMMMW wide, bytwenty-lou- r in height. ' In the midst ofbla-'k- , tempestuous billows, which ragoaround it, riaos a mighty cross of stone,to which is clinging a frail and beautifulgirl, clad in white. Her Itaaaa are tasteuedfirmly upon the transverse, and hsr faceis turned to heaven, her eyes fixed to arift above hcriu the storm-cloud- throughwhich rays of heavenly light pour downupon her head. No other sign of hunian j

life is seen save one hand, which is roach- - j

ing up from the depths of the Hood, grasp- -ing al a Moating spar. Every muscle andvein is distinctly shown, and the Terrcurve of tbe fingers is descriptive of the"strong swimmer in his agony." Thegloomy clouds roll biaek around tbe crossand mingle with the waters; ail is dark-ness and terror, amid which the Rock ofAges and she who clings to it alone standfirm and unmoved.

Dav before yesterday, a man namedKing called u in-r- 1siy named GeorgeMadison, who runs a hand-ca- rt for WaitA le w is. co..i dealers on Second street,and told him to go to the Louisville Depot,get a valise for Un, and carry it to An-gel- o

Marre, who would pay the cartage.The boy did as direeied, out on going toMr. Marre's saloon, the barkeeper did notknow Mr, King, and refused to take I bevalise. 'I he Isiv thereupon determined lolake 11 to tue oraee ol VI ail A Lewis,where he wua abasit to deliver It to Mr.Lewis, when a mulatto boy, well dressedaud apparently a waiter at some clubroom or saloon, camo runuinir un andasked Madison if "that was Mr. Klna'svaliseT" BeliiK answered that it was, themulatto nandi d Uadlaoa the quarter andtold him that Mr. King had sent him forit, whereupon the valtsa was delivered tohim, and ke went off with it. In thecourse oX an hour or so. King called onMr, Lew's unit demanded his valise TJ.e

latter immediately called Madison, andon his recounting "the alfair as we havestated it. King demanded pay for it,valuing It at $300. Mr. Lewis, thinkingthere might bo some collusion betweenMadison and the mulatto, to whom he hailgiven the valise, went to 'Squire Foleyand had him arrested, search being mademeanwhile for the mulatto boy, who, ofcourse, was not found. Yesteniay morn-ing the case came up Issforo 'Squire Foley,and Madison reiterated his statements,which were corroborated in every rosiiect,with the exception that Mr. Marro's bar-keeper swore that he finally offered totake the valise (after first refusing to doso). With the ovidenco before him,'Squire Foley thought it his duty to sendMadison to the Criminal Court under (2000bail. From knowledge of the boy, andfrom the straightforward manner in whichhe tells his story, we cannot help think-ing, however, that some "job" has been" put up " on him perhaps by somest earn boat or hotel waiter, who chancedto overhear his conversation with the bar-keeper. If the case is thoroughly gifted,we are confident of his innocence.

The snow made us think of Christmasyesterday in spite of the plentiful lackiif Christmas advertising with which theMem pis press is just now blessed. It istho strangest thing in the world to us tosee how utterly unmindful our merchantsand shopkeepers are of the mighty leverof success which is wielded so powerfullyby their brethren of other cities. Forweeks past, glancing through our

North, East and West, we hatefound them filled with advertisements oftheir holiday wares; yet herein Memphisthe holidays have scarcely been spoken of.Indeed, were it not for the traditionalweather, and the fact that we look forwardto a holida on that occasion, we couldhardly believe that we were witbina weekOf Christmas. WhyisthisT Are our pen- -

pie less mindful of that great Feast of thoChristian year, the season of mir'.h andand good feeling, of renewal of old frl.-nd- -

sbijis and cementing of new ones, of for-

giveness of enemies, and giving tokens of j

friendship the Christmas holidays thantheir Northern neighbors, to whom it hasonly of late years become the season ofgladness. Once and uot very long agoChristmas was tho Southern holiday incontradistinction to the Northern thauks-givin- g

a day which tbe Puritans andtheir descendants by especial legislationPut in the place of the anui versary of theNativity of Our Lord. How is it now?Wherd are they gone thoso good oldCUrist-na- aaysr swept away oy tuespirit oi innovation, of greed of gain, andinfidelity, which came over us during tbewar and sinco it! Will that spirit possessus forever? Are al! tbe time honored cus-

toms of our fathers dead, er to beWe hope not. We l0io that,

since during this year of IMR, which willsoon be gathered to its predecessors andnumbered with Ihe past, we of Tennessoee,and of Memphis especially, as a people,havo baen relieved toa greatexlent of thegalling chains which a year ago werethrown around onr liml, and whoseclank was forever ringing in our ears, andsince have been otherwise blessed withhealth and prosperity, our people willshake offthu lethargy, return to thi goodold customs, and make Christmas what itonce was in the Koatb a season of joy,merriment, and thanks-giving.
