At the late meeeing of the Memphis
and Charleston railroad directors,
Messrs. Ellet k Phelan were elected
attorneys fof the road for4 the ensuing
year. This is an excellent selection, for
the firm Is one of the ablest at 'onr bar,
and Memphis can boast of more legal
talent than any city of the same popula
tion in the Union.
Among our numerous subscribers for
the Weekly Ledger we notice the name
of J. W. Watson, now located as a mer
chant tailor' at ' Okolona, Mississippi,
where he is said to be doing a prosperous
business. He lived in Memphis many
years and was located on Madison street.
He is a reliable, clever gentleman, and
has many; oId , friends here who will be
glad to hear that he lives and prospers.
The Morristown (East Tennessee) Ga
zette of the 20th says:
Some parties in digging in a cave near
Clifton, Cocke county, in search of min
erals, have exhumed human skeleton
of giant proportions. In height it is
fully seven feet. It was walled up with
stone, and from the surroundings it is
supposed that it must have been placed
there hundreds of years ago. There
were a large lot of curiously carved
beads, of ivory or shell, found wUh the
bones. It is a considerable curiosity and
well worth preserving.
The entertainment given by the Sodal
ity Silver Band, last evening, was well
attended, and passed off in a manner
satisfactory to the audience. The musi
cal part of the programme was received
with applause that called for an encore
in most cases. The concluding part of
the entertainment, a pantomime entitled
the ."Magic Box; or, Who . Stole the
Liquor," was put upon the stage in a
very creditable style, and the various
characters filled in a manner that aston
ished the friends of the young gentle
men and raised the enthusiasm of the
audience to the highest pitch. 'The enter
tainment will be repeated this evening,
at the same place Washington street,
between Third and Fourth.
The concert at Brinkiey College last
night was aa artistic and complete suc

some changes of programme. A morn

It was worth three or four times the
price charged for admission to hear Miss
Flodie Lewis sing and perform "Spring
time," while the same ladv sang " The
Lover and .the , Bird," Robert," and
other airs so charmingly as to win from
all the verdict of a songstress of superior
merit and great talent. Her well culti
vated voice warbled beautifully and dis
tinctly to the satisfaction of every lis
tener. Miss Eva Williams executed
" Chantti riet donntt " so sweetly that
all hearts were delighted. Since this
young lady appeared in public last
spring she has greatly improved, both in
voice and personal appearance. " The
Bells go ringing for Sarah," was hand
somely done by Lina Barber, and little
Tinnie suns: and acted "Johnnie's so
Bashful' Tery humorously. Several of
the choruses were fine.

Next week we are to have the Lancers
at the Memphis Theater. This attrac
tion, judging from it (uccess elsewhere,
will produce the . liveliest sensation
among our refined theater-goers of the
season. - A late number of the St. Louis
Republican says: " '' ' 1 , ..
The Lancers contains many attractive
elements that art calculated, if properly
handled, to please the popular taste.
And we am glad to say that in this in
stance the drama ha fallen into, good
keeping and is made the most of. The
company who appear under the leader
ship of Miss Moore and Mr. Wyndham,
are really all very excellent in their sev
eral department. Everything is done
neatly and well, even down to the minor
characters, so generally confided to
botchers and blunderers. Mr. Windham
a "Victor" is a very pleasing and
satisfactory actor, who infuse into hit
representations an unaffected naturalness
quite ont of the ordinary dramatic ruts,
and which i correspondingly effective.
The scene in the second act where he
badgers , the colonel and flirts with
madamo, is admirably done in favn,
drawn to the life o closely that the mim
icry bafile detection. We greet . Mr.
Wyndham cordially as a creditable rep
resentative of the new school which, it
is to be hoped, will speedily banish bom
bast and buffoonery from tho stage. But
of course the main interest centers
about Miss Moore, the fair bead of the
combination, and a better head for that
position it would indeed be difficult to
select. She i an English girl, apparently
in the vioinity of sweet two-aud-twenty;
fair haired, blue eyed, and with a face
lovely in features and fascinating in ex
pression. She has a fine presence, and
ner. movement are always thoroughly
elegant and lady-like, unsoiled by the
slightest l approach to that worn-out
abomination, the burlesque. Her greatest
natural endowment is unquestionably her
voice it i full, round, rich and musi
cal, without a break or flaw to mar the
perfect melody of utterance. She talks
our mother tongue in a way refreshing
to hear in these day when murdering
the King's English is the commonest of
crimes. Each word is spoken clearly
and distinctly, and the sentences slip
from her lips with a mellowness which
nobly deserves the title of "vocal
volvet." Wo recommend our young
ladies, and our young gentlemen, too, to
visit the Olympic, and gain thereby- a
vivid comprehension of how much har
mony there is in language when fitly de
livered. As an actress Miss Moore is
equal to the best in her line.
There are no mannerisms, nothing
artificial about her; she walks and
talks upon the Stage as though slip were
in a drawing-room, and even in the
strongest situations of the play there is
nothing strained or overdrawn. The
second act is an exquisite specimen of
genteel comedy, brimming with sprightly
umor, and yet always delicate and re
fined, while the song which she gives
here is tastefully rendered, and proves
the lady to be much beyond the average
of vocalists. The Moore-Wyndham
troupe, then, is emphatically a success,
and the liberal applause bestowed last
night testified that the audience appre
ciated and enjoyed what is, in many re
spects, one of the most agreeable enter
tainments that our city has seen for
years. ' . -. . . f

Gents: The following are voluntary
statements. 1 make them alone for the
lived of the suffering. When I wa in
your city you recommended to me and
advised me to buy the Magic 4rn'c
Liniment. My reply was, I bad no con
fidence in patent nostrums. I told you
of a hurt I received eleven Tenrs since
that had not been relieved, but was in
creasing with age. Yon then presented
me with aboule of this liniment. ( took;
it through courtesy to you. A week
after I got home I concluded to use it I
applied it twice each day for two weeks.
Since that time I have felt no pain, but
feel as well as I did twenty year ago.
The bottle of liniment has been worth
more to me thaa tbe bottla filled with
gold would have been. I recommend
the liniment to all who I find suffering
with pain from strains, bruisos, rheuma
tism, or any other cause whatever. It
recommends itself wherever sold. I am,
dear sirs, yours, etc 8. J. Waplet.

MONEY,, .
We have no change to notice in finan
cial matters to-day. Tbe demand for
money continues active, and rates of dis
count are unchanged. Business was
very light, owing to the attractions at the
race course, a largo number of business
men going out to enjoy the sport. Ex
change is euHy, and rates the same as
yesterday. Some currency comes by
express, but the cotton bills offered are
nearly sufficient to Biipply the demand.
Local scrips are quiet, with no change
in quotations, and stocks and bonds are
entirely nominal. Memphis . Cs, 61 to
52c, and Memphis and Charleston Tail
road stock, .10 to 37c. Scrips are quiet,
with county warrants quoted at 68 to 70c,
and city coupons 60 to 62c. The capitu
lation of Metz has a depressing effect on
