Hon. Board of Aldermen:
i.:.t .,.: I in n w th transmit to you
a oommnnication from his honor Mayor
Leftwich, in relation to the sale of the
city's stuck in the Memphis aud Little
Rock Railroad. The city's interest in
i hat road has. as yuti are ivarc, recently
NMM somewhat complicated, and the
situation is at present by no means sat is
faetory to the friends of the enterprise.
Vour consideration of the accompanying
"oiiiinunii'a'.ton, as well as thegeneral con
dition of affairs connected with the Little
rtock Koad, is respecifuUy invited. I
would also call your attention to tlie-ac-cotnpanying
communication of the City !
Tax Collector in relation to the abatement
of the penalty and recoumeud that his
Miggclion be lulopteil.
Respect fully,

Hon. Win. UlncJc, JnoV pro tem., Mt in
pttis, Ten.:
Sir: Belore leaving Memphis several
Aldermen and mvself were allowed to
read and consider a very important com-
o.i 'ii i. "Hi I. ' ifi'il, tilt:
President of the Memphis and El
Memphis Hud
Paso Railroad, u Mr. Brinklov,
in which, though conceding that
inducements are hld forth to induce
him to select another point of departure
.rom the Mississippi river for the Kl Paso
Railroad. Ho frankly confesses his pref
erence for Memphis, and as an evidence of
ms desire to secure lasting harmony be-
' ween t he
ciiy o
Memphis and the Kl
I'aso road, author:. -s Mr. Isrinkley to
carry out his (Mr. Fpperson'si original
proposition to puroha.se the city"s stock in
the Little Bock Railroad.
Siuce that time I have met and con
versed with DHf gentlemen of intelli
gence aud foresight, who are largely in- i
teres Led in the railroads that connect j
Memphis with the Atlantic ocean at Nor-
folk, and who express the fear that we i
underrate the influences that are at work
to induce Col. Epjierson to select for tho
El Paso road, a point of departure south
atf Memphis; hence, prompted by a mu- i
tual and recognized interest, th?y urge j
that Memphis should make an v reasona
ble concession, or even sacrifioe to secure
the harmony now sought for by Col. Ep
person. Gen. Mahone. the President of three
railroads, comprising the. Air Line, be
tween Memphis and Norfolk, .ind who,
above all others, has impressed me as ios
sessing a most comprehensive railroad
mind, and a clear comprebensii m of the
immense advantages derivable rom ex
' : - ve railroad combinations, sa vs. with
his convincing force, " ) Memphis
can well afford to give a way its
stock in the Little Rock Rail
road if thereby either an early com
pletion of llie road i i tired, or t.h influ
ence is exerted in behalf of the HI Paso
road, with Memphis as its starting- point
from the Mississippi.
The stock was taken bv the rtv with
the sole purpose of securing a direct r.iil- j
road l oiiuiiunication with Little Roc k.
and without any hoje that it wouid ever
prove otherwise valuable; but by the salt'
at '.his time we accomplish our original
purpose in the completion of the road,
which will liius be enabled to provide for
the pavment of the $:'..kj,0O0 in bonds en
dorsed by the city, ami besides getting
the g loo.i it i in inoiiev, we not onlv esmm-
tribute to the building of a railroad" to the
l'aciln-ocYuu, tiui insure the selection of
Memphis as its Initial point.
The cash realized would enable us to
pay two large debts now due, and thus
save the city the large collaterals with
which they are secured, and provide
menus aisu ur uic payment ot the fire
men, the street force and other city em
ployees, and many small but meritorious
and pressing claims all of which at this
important crisis would enhance the city's
criKlit. more than double that amount
would ai any other time
The fact thai M. Epperson's purchase
id one million of stouk from President i
Itrinkley, gives him a controlling interest
in the management of this road without
H -ock owned by the city commends the
proposition for its liberality to every citi
zen and friend of Memphis for all con
cede that is value depended on its con
trol ung influence, while it should, and
no doubt will, dissipate, the idea, quite
prevalent at the liinu, lhat this stock was
issued and sold with a view to depreciate
that owned by the city. These questions
are of .such magnitude, and the argu
ments in their favor so unanswerable,
that I indulge in the hope that the Bonrd
of Aldermen, without a dissenting voice
will favor the immediate sale, lest other
complications Miould arise to positively
j-t-l l.icinril L l, jHCIflll l.
XiU JOU Pres?"1 th" communication
to i ne nexr meeting ot i'ic IUn of Al
dermen, aud if consistent with your own
views, ask that its rei-ommend'ations be
adojMcd at the next meeting?
While at Washington I will be near
enough to Col. Epperson to see him Ln
person at any time that von or Hie Board
of Aldermen may . i ..n, u desirable.

were walking down Jefferson street we
looked in at the old Jefferson Street Mar-
ket where Charlev Williams is now. lie
has just returned from Europe, and is tit
i ting up his place of business in real Lon
I don stylo. We that love good meats
j know in days of vore Charley always
kept the best." His beef, pork and matton
i was always the choicest the stock yards
afforded. One great specialty of t bar
ley's was his fine corned beef "and pickled
pork. He has spared no expense, and
when we see him, with his genial 6e8 cut
ting a steak or making us a chop, we
know it is the best. He buys no poor cat
tle ; does his own butchering, and offers
to a Memphis public just what we want.
In the vegetable line you can find every
thing hi fact, a market all complete, with
most gentlemanly attendants. Ladies
leave ihcir baskets and orders, and on
their return home find their rfiarketing
there. A word to the wise is sufficient.
Enterprise and perseverance are bound to
succeed. All families should go and see
Charlev's beautiful place. We know of
what we speak.

JuBt as we go to press, we learn with
regret that Capt. J. K. P. Pritchard died
at 2 o'clock a. in. after only a short illness
of inflamatlon of the stomach. We will
giye notice of the funeral in to-morrow's
paper.
About 10 o'clock last night the negro
chambermaid, Sophie, of the steamer
Marcella, jumped overboard, evidently
with the intention of committing suioide,
ami was drowned. She had had MUM dif
ficulty with her husband, which had ap
parently bereft her of her mind.
The Hebrew Fair was again well at
tended last night, and the room presented
a brilliant scene. We must again apolo
gize to the ladies for seeming neglect,
pleading as excuse the press of other mat
ter. The attendance will, no doubt, in
crease nightly, and the receipts be abund
antly equal to tho expectations of the la
dies. We are pleased to state that the revi
val still continues at the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, and that the ser
vices are conducted by Rev. Dr. McDon
ald, a gentleman who lias been unusually
successful in his efforts in behalf of
church extension. The church Is well at
tended nightly, and we hope will be so
long as tho revival continues, and that
will, we know, be every night this week.
We learn by private advices that there
was a tremendous excitement in the re
gion of Skull Bone, in this State, yester
day. The circumstances are briefly, that
two desperate characters named "Grant
and White, from the Skull Bone neigh-
hood, night before last visited the placo
of a widow named Hurd, to rob her hen
roost. While they were performing this
feat, her son, a youth of sixteen, bearing
the noise, arose and came to the door. As
soon as he appeared they fired on him and
killed him. 1'ho whole neighberhoinl n
soon roused, and were pursuing the mur
derers all day yesterday. Up to a late
hour last night they had not been caught.
The soiree tbtnxantc to be given by the
Confederate Relief Association to-morrow-night
at the Overton Hotel bids fair to be
the most brilliant thing of the sort given

by .Squire
Kiernan bonding Stryker over to appear
at the next term of the Criminal Court,
under Ismda in the sum of 20U0. The
case ia one which we havo noticed before,
uix win. u mis .nil a. ten cousiueraDie at
tention lately, not only in police circles,
but as being one which involves various
other charges, and may be a prettv big
allair. The facts are simply these: On I
thedoclcet or 'Squire Home, of 180041, ;
which fell by legiilmato succession into
HM hands of 'Squire Creighton, !
and from him descended to i
'Sijuire Foley, were various judgments,
executions, etc., which, owing to the un
settled condition of the country since that
period, had never beon collet-tod. Stry- j
ker, occuping the same office with 'Squire !
Foley, chanced to find this fact out, and i
thereby to .his eagle eye was revealed a i
chance to make a "spec." We understand, j
and from good authority, that he first ap- j
proached 'Squire Foley with an offer to !
make out and collect these various sums,
he and Foley sharing the proceeds of the
same. This offer 'Squire Foley, as be
came an honest man, indignantly spurned,
and refused in toto to have anything to do :
wnti o iiciaiious a irausaciiou. iNotn
ing daunted, Stryker determined
to strike for himself, 'and accordingly at
every opportunity went through the
oooks, a .u maae memoranda and ab- ;
!XE hi SZTtnTZZ aA.mD thor'
TJ LT,einWaS a J,,um,ent m
for $20, given in 1800. This he presented, ,
as the testimony went to show, to Selig- j
man, and tho latter rather than have any
controversy about the matter agreed to
Mr? him a certain sum, for which sum ;
Stryker by his striker agreed to accept i
and did aooept, ami gave a receipt for tho :
same, signing for it. as the attorney for j
Mrs. Jemison, the executrix of Robert j
Jemison, the assignee of the firm of
Jemison & Bro. Mrs. Jemison never got j
a cent of the money, and by some means, j
not necessary here "to relate, became cog- i
nizant of the alfair, and commenced
airing inquiries inlo the matter. The i
rZ a.,." . j . 7 . , nL .! "
result was a warrant tor Stryker for ob
taining money under false" pretences.
l uo matter was immediately brought up
for examination before 'Squire Foiev, on
Saturday last. Stryker claimed to "have '
acted under authority from Mrs. Jemi
OS: and, rather than "have any difficult v
about the matter, and bring that lady into
a magistrate's com t, her attorney agreed
not to prosecute the case. Stryker got j
his back up, however, and under the garb i
of injured innocence, refused to let the
matter drop thus, declaring that he would
go into an examination and come '
out "as becomes an honest man."
A change of venue was obtained from
Fole3- to Kieruan, and on Monday the
case was examined. Mrs. Jemison's tea- i
timony raa to the effect that on the l:!th i
of Sapt;-inber last a man came to her 1
house and informed her that an attorney !
in the city knew where there was an exe- '
cution in favor of her late husband, on i
which he could collect some money, iftsVr
irotilil gii e him half of the proceeds. She
refused to give him any authority to act ,
in the matter, and he departed. She nev- '
or heard of him or the money afterward.
Styker tried to prove that he had com-
promised the matter with Seligman, with
a Mrs. Jemison's authority, for that
he had volunteered to send her that sum i
of money, but the constable wouldn't take
it, etc., etc. The constable, on being ex-i
amined, testified to having collected $15, :
and charged i5 for doing so, giving St rvker !
$10. That isthe last evorheardof the $lu. It
was proved oonclnsiv. lv, first, that Stry- !
ker had uo authority on earth to collect ;
the money: second, that he signed him-
raelf as the attornev of Mrs. Jemison wiLh-
out authority, and third, that he never i
made any returns for the money he did
collect. Of course he was "sent up." Wo ;
understand there are ten other similar ;
cases, and that 'Squire Foley says there
are at least 12000 involved in similar tran
sactions of thi-s individual. We hope that
justice may be done, aud that the devil j
and tho jailor may have their dae.
AMUSEMENTS.
Memtiiis Th k at::k. The public wero
evidently anxious to witness the enter-,
tainiWBBI ofl'ered by the Worrell Sisters,
and we can venture to say that 110 one left
regrettingahelr visit to t lie New Memj.his.
Tne audience was ijuite large, brilliant
and ajijir ci itivc. The sisters, Sophie and
Irene, hit their taste to a charm. Sophie ;
is all life and vivacity, abandoning her-
selt to the character with such earnestness
that she immediately impregnates the j
audience with her own mirth and spirit, j
and leads them away from " the carking
cares of the world " to enjoy an hour of!
delightful forgetfulness, while Irepe, :
with a charming, winning softness, steals
her way into their favor and maintains it. j
The songs, duetts, dances, jokes, hits at
men and manners, seemed all to be heart- ;
ily enjoyed. The young lady. Miss Will- j
morr, wo believe, who tilled "he character
of Licur le Boixsey, won many friends by
her charming singing and dancing. The i
(ueen Catharine of Mr. Atkins wasirre- j
si-tibly funny, without vulgarity. Tho
same may be said of Mr. Hill's Henry and
Mr. Lingard's t'rami.i. Tbc burlesque is
full of life, fun, good danciugand music,
and if laughter and applause indicate sue- 1
onss, then "The Field 01' the Cloth of
Gold" was one, and will till the house
to-night to overllowing. No better ad- :
vertisemcnt than a well pleased Bilbinie
Broom's Opera Hoi se was tilled as 1
usual, and there was a grand billof amuse- !
ment. The stars promised havo not all j
ppesred, but have been detained by una
voidable delays. The two Paunies appear i
this evening, along with a host of other
good ones. Ono of the Florence sisters,

MISoELLAXEOfs.
Eleven boats arrived, and fifteen de
parted in the past twenty-four hours, and
the levee looked alive yesterday. It jiut
us in mind of old times, and is" we hope,
but a foreshadowing of those which are to
come.
Capt. John T. Shirley, ihe popnb-r land
lord of the National Hotel, LoojMYiUa, and
once one of our best known steamboat
masters, will be in our city in a few days,
and will begreoted by hundreds of warm
friends.

H. Mossop are her clerks. Frank Smith
officiates in the cabin. The Magenta is
one of our finest .passenger packets, and

Tho very handsome and swift passenger
paeKei .Mississippi win pass down to-day. ;

She is commanded by one of our old crti- !
zens, Capt. Nat Green, who is as popular j
afloat as he was ashore. Cook Creigh;ou ,
is Secretary, and is also an efficient officer.
The elegant passenger steamer Belle St. j
l.ouis, Capt. Alex, .eigler, will tie lu port
this morning, and leave at 4 p.m. for
Cairo and St. Louis. She connects aith
the traius North and Last. Mr. Basket t(

crowded state of our columns.

The splendid and handsomely eiiiijped

backs out to-day for Friar's Point and ill
way landings. She made .juite a sensa
tion in the trade, and will soon become a
favorite with the peoj.le in tho bends.
Stack Lee, a popular officer and coinjie
tent clerk, has charge of her office.
The agents of those who propose to aug
ment the capital stock of the Memphis
and Arkansas River Packet Company,
were busy yesterday obtaining sulwcrip
tions. The scheme will doubtless l,e car
ried out, the $711,000, raised, and Memphis
will monopolize the trade, rich and grow
ing, of the valley of the Arkansas. Boats
in this line have made money rapidly, and
the sulwcribers will lie protfted, uot oniy
as shareholders, but as Memphis trades
men. STEAMBOATS.
