Being without iiieaus the body was buried at the expense of the county. A curious suit is about to lie commenced before a Justice of the Peace down town. A white man has a young bull pup. The pup hit a barefooted negro in the heel as he was passing. The negro jumped, and two of the pup's Us-th were thereby abstracted.

The negro sues the white man for allowing a vicious dog U) run at large.

This was because I hoped WWntv warrants would advunt'c and I ftel Kn fn mine till, instead of adi aiu-ing they declined.

Nevertheless, the average ot fow (or the entire time for which loss wh- ailourd by the Board was very considerably than it would iK-en if had estiinanrd the curreid Wtf- of warrants during -aia time, and tJiaason why this wa- so was MMW 1 was able, on twg occasions, to use my warrants at Ibeir fufl value. In this connet-tion, Mr, fcditor. allow me to say that it is reportl that I have been presented by the Grand Jury n- having unlawfully accepted this amount of jltWH for losses on war-runts is.su. to me my salary as Commissioner.

Kraustt corner Main and Adams. IMMIGRATION. Address of Mr. W. B.

Donoho be fore the Chamber of Commerce. Agreeably to an invitation from the Board of Trade, Mr. W. B. Donoho last ex-ening delivered an address before that body, recounting his experience in the Northwestern during a tour made for the purpose of explaining and setting forth the immense advantages oifered by the South to those who come within her borders as friends, and with the intention of making part and parcel ot our people.

The meeting xvas presided over bv Mr. W. S. Pickett, who, after stating the object of the meeting, introduced Mr. Donoho, who spoke as follows: I deem it scarcely necessary to offer any ariology foriny appearance before you this evening, as I am amongst those who know me, and in the midst of a community with whom I ha-e been identified for nearly twenty years in commercial and mercantile pursuits, and which have so entirely engrossed my time and what little talent 1 may have possessed in the prosecution, as to have left ine neither the opportunity or occasion to have cultivated in any degree the habit and the preparation necessary to entertain an audience in the popular sense of a public speaker.

I promise you no entertainment; I have no desire to please your fancy, tognin notoriety, to simply constitute the killing of time," and enable you by anything 1 may say or relate here to pass through the evening xvithout some purpose some goes! accomplishedeven if good resolutions to be hereafter acted upon. The truth is, friends, the condition of our "Sunny South," my native heath, lox'ed and idolized in her prosperity, and but the more endeared iu her tribulations" have so engaged my thoughts since the war that scarcely any other matter could find lodgment or be entertained with cordiality for a day ora moment even. Xo other subject than that not only of her amelioration, or even her restoration to her former prosperity, but of a position far, far, far in advance of what she could ever have attaiued under the condition and system ot slavery of other days. Hard indeed has it l-eeii to (earn the lesson. Hard indeed has it bepn to recover from that paralysisthat d'Sipondency that deep, terrible, "night-mare" despair, that weighed down every "Southern" Ijeart.

Hard, Indeed, has it been to Icaru the esoiis iuti'ude'd by a wise and merciful Providence, yet xvhen calmly considered what a glorious future awaits these Southern States if the advantages, the untold advantages that 1 fear we fail to properly estimate, and which, if we or tilts very day generation will wield as weshould do, and a- aiiy' Pilfer people would un-questiinamy qd, vie' at ouce enter upon aii era ui i.ujtur;;.) reconstruction," more certain of accomplishment, more desirable of attainment, ahd'more substantial in value, htfif of greater intrinsic merit than all the jntefij.it" and Congressional enactments of the pri-ient century, and the beginning ofa filming. n.lenc not to enuontll the South shall baye divined a position that for Irqe piendor and jiil.tirjtial worth will -itaiid unrivaled in tije ud without a hopefii! riyid'in the future If the South in lMlT, almost wi th'oui means, without credit and without friend-, xvith demoralizing influences qf the "Bureau" upon the labor, with U'-Jajudated team- and implements, did In tt.o of a miserable cultivation, wilb, a population, all told, black and white, bXbqft? while the North, Ktist anff Ven GQIQhhlOtL yi'h people, fapis and Ijomes ifitct, abundance of money, under protection Government, and every advantage or improved iniplemen't, t-spital anc Pfttct exported onlv The South in iwjs uroduced not onlv cnoiurfa of bnad ai)d niwU for home conqti)D-tjon, aud JtoaAypi Ijesidw as proceeds of her )tton, sugar, to'iatw, nemp and rice nearly And till, done Jess than i-nerfourth of the area her tillable lands, hox loog would it taka tjjem to wipe by oja.ii, lair and st4iu.r0 pay-nruTt Mtiff) national debt, it the Noithweat will ittitd as population anitftni)leinents to bring into cultiva-tfon three-fourths of the land?

Who may not enxv our position in respeel of advantages, and who would dare to neglect them as we ha'e done? In view of acquiring that population so necessary to the development of our resource-, after mature reflection I became convinced that we must turn our atten tion to our neighbors of the North and Northwest, and acting upon that conviction, determined upon a canvass of the States of Indiana and Illinois. The result of that undertaking has not only confirmed iu my first conviction upon the subject, but has encouraged me to the belief that the work has been liegun at the right time and place, and should be vigorously prosecuted, arid without delay, in the States of Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. Before entering upon the canvass, the firm of Donoho, Joy with whom I am connected, had prepared and stereotyped a pamphlet (a copy of which I liold in my hand), which, together with a plaiu, practical, homespun" and weighty talk to the people at almost every point along railroad communication from Jelfersonville, Ind to Chicago.

The adx'antage of abundance and cheapness of lands, their wonderful fertility their capacity not only to produce with a cultivation similar to that given to lands in the North, as large a yield of corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, "potatoes, beans, peas, fruits, berries, grapes, hops, broom corn, but in addition to these the lands of the South alone of all the territory of the United States, producing those! irreat "gold bearing" commercial staples, cotton, sugar, tobacco, hemp and rice.

Qllin can be produced in abundance for home consumption as xyell as largely for export. Fruits and vegetables could be produi-ed in greator abnmhinre and of Is-tp'r iuulities, and can, by the advantages of placed' as luxuries, and at the highest prices, in the markets of the (present population) North (soon to he from four to six weeks In adx-anee of their owu crops.

Cnder the first, or those what have been setth-d, arc: Completing new jail, old jail has been expended in and about new jail since it was ret-cix'ed There is no possibility ol there being any necessity of spending one-third of that amount in years to come. Therefore it Ls safe to say at loa.t two-thirds of the above amount will Is' saved, or i'nder the last hid for burying the paupers, there will be saved over last year fluon. At the rate reported by Commissioner Merriman, there wiil lie sa-ed in stationery $4000. The character of the bridges is go few needing repairing and but lew to build they mostly small.

Here will lie a saving of at least -stioxHi. An the county olhces have been supplied with good safes at a cost of about $9600. We have also paid for paving in front ot the county prop erty Also setthsl tax collector's bill for 1861, amounting to Ta ken up old warrants issued by Judges IVUt and Leonard, more than we shall have to do thi- year, at bust Last we paid to ('has.

The expense of running the Crimi nal Court last year was not less than fifty, if not sixtv thousand dollars. A reduction of this Court and jail ex peipies will amquMt to thousand dollar-.

If we had the right I should deci dedly in favor of making our payable in cash paving olt regular exery-day expenses, and thereby forcing our lsmds to be taken.

No man need to lear to purchase property in Shelby county on account of a future high rate of taxes. In conclusion, gentlemen, I could not eonsent to any portion of the tax being placed on merchants, or any special business; it is wrong in princi ple, ruinous to our city trade and the city's general prosperity, and what- ex'er ruins our commercial interests, directly or indirectly, dwtiuyA proportionally the interests of the county. 1 here is a good tune coming. 1 believe it has dawned, and is now-making itelf felt in the commercial. agricultural, mechanical, religious and social feelings of the people.

In every walk of life there Ls evidently a general feeling of confidence, restored good will, and a desire to see good, reliaDie, straight-rorward, liberal-minded citizens come into the coun try, and if xve are economical and careful the people of Shelby county will soon be able to boast of the good time come."

Tho Union and Planter's Bank, with a capital of xv ill commence business on the first of September at the office of the People's Insurance Company, on MadL-on street. where it will be located until the completion of the handsome IS-. nk Building," now under construction, and owned by Col.

B. tireeidaw. Mr. W. M.

Karrington, the President, is one of our shrewdest, most responsible and reliable merchants; is known everywhere in the surrounding country, and enjoys the ihjiiIMhwH of the community. Mr. William -on, of Somerville, is Vice-President. He was formerly President of the branch Bank of Tennessee at Somerville, Ls wealthy, intelligent and reliable, and during his life has stu.nl high xvith hLs neighbors. He brings to the suport of the Bank, as does Gen.

Nathan Adams, one of the Directors, the support oi the farming population of the counties contiguous 10 Memphis. He is a decided acquisition to the Bank. So Ls Mr. Reed, the Cashier. He has been knoxvn to this business community for many years, and whether as bookkeeper for one of the most MCtantU firms that Memphis has ever known, or as partner of the great house of Howell.

Wood Ri'ed, or as Secretary of the People's Insurance Company, he has always been successful, has always gix'eu satisfaction and has always prox'en himself a man of capacity, integrity and promptness. J. a. Om-berg, the teller, is admittedly the best man for that position that Memphis can afford. He is young, but has had a great deal experience, sufficient to xvarrant us in the broad statement as to his efficiency which xve have made.

His integrity i- cjual to his efficiency, and for intelligence we do not know a young man in the city superior. We have known him loug and intimately, and earne-tly endorse him to the bank and the public. Mr. Louis Czapski is to be general bookkeeper, a position for which hi abilities eminently qualify him. Mr.

Capski has been a citizen of Memphis for the past nine X'ears and during that time has won to himself hosts of friends who have watched his career and rejoiced over his successes. He is characterised by great energy, close attention to hu-ine-- airuracy in da't Of hank hooK-keeping, is very rapid in the performance of his work, but thorough, and takes rank as a fine mathematician.

Wo congratulate friend Louis." The net ran, hut by no'meansthe least of tne list of officers of the Uuiun and Planters Bank, comes Mr. James McRae, formerly connected with the Bank of Tennessee, and regarded most favorably by the mercantile community and banking fraternity especially.

He takes the position of individual book-keeper, one of the most responsible connected xvith the institution. He is admirably adaptet) ftir it, by his knowledge of the community, especially those members of it likely to do business xvith the bank and xvill bring to the complete picturing of ex-ery day's business, and every customer's account trie utmjst (tpcuracy and fitlejity.

HOW ARE YOU, SMITH? A Perkins to the Rescue or. Rather to the Rizzio. A Very Large Bridge over Smith's Proboscis. A New Combination of Extraordinary Talent. iaa lliey uy in the show bllRi As was predicted by all xvho had the pleasure of hLs acquaintance, Smith (late of the firm of Smlth-Hizzio) effectually flung dirt iu the eyes of his late partner, when he slipped off on a protracted leaving her to plav checkers with her nose, through the nine-of-diamond- of a cell window in the Second District, instead of hustling around to raise money to pay her fine.

And when the old gal got out of her dilemma, her first act was to declare war against the xvhole ismim family, f-he even i went so far as to swear out a warrant for his arrest, charging him with going back on her, and the music of which Smith would have been compelled to face, if hehadu't kept shady. Mrs. Rizzio Smith-Rizzio no longer pined for some congenial heart to whom she could breathe her sorrows, and who should tum up, in the very nick of time, but Perkins Charles Perkins the very man of all others tluit she would have selected to till the void left by the perfidious Smith. Perkins had called, he said, as the festive female was exhausting her x-ocabulary of politenes-to induce him to "'take just a little, Mr. Perkins; it can't 'urt you" (meaning the whisky), only to borrow the loan of a frying-pan, a match, and a small piece of bacon, "if she had such a thing iu the hou-e." to help make a dinner of a piece of corn bread he had picked up; that was all he wanted.

him the articles? "Certingly, Mr. Perkings, hanythink hin the 'ouse is hat yer servk-e; honly von't you stop a bit and 'ax dinner with 'me? Honly a plain cow heel with tunnuts, you know, but so be it that'll suit, yer vmore than vetenrue, Mr. Perking-!" and seeing the seedy but singularly muscular gentleman eyes cast lovingly on the bottle xvhich stood near, she shoved it towards Perkins 'Ave a drop more, carnt ye? Don't he afeard! Don't 'oiler afore yer 'urt, Mr. I'erking-! 'Ave a naggin 'long 'o me, lad!" and the busthead gurgled out of the black bottle and hissed down a red hot gullet ex'en as -he was speak ing. As the bottle traveled to and fro across the counter, Perkins lieeame less modest, and at last "guessed he'd stay and take a little siithin' to eat, as he felt kinder peckish, anyhow, and Miss Reaeho was so persuadin' like." The liottle passed and repassed athxvart the plank between them, and thy hobnobbed, and clinked glasses, and sxyoreat the memory of Smith, and Perkins recited "a hoad (as Mr-.

Rizzio would call it), and became patriotic, sungasongall about Crossington Washing the Delaware; in fact the pair reveled extensix-ely, the "eowheel and turmuts" cooking nicely the whilein a potand throxving off an odor that was sniffed up gratefully by the ravenous though jovial Perkins. As Mrs. Rizio, armed xvith a long iron fork, was prodding around in the pot the stray turmuts as they bubbled to the top, her quick ear caught the melodious X'oice of Smith, once so em-banting to her ears, and she dropped fork, cow-heel ana all, tike a country hoy with hot hoxse-idioe in a cross-roads blacksmith shop, and ru-hed tn the door. There, at the top of the bluff, just under the sign, "Try Diarrhea Cordial for Lumbago and Yelloxv Fever," sat Smith, his No. coxvhide Ixiots looking like sacks of guano as they -1 over the edge.

Smith was singing, or trying to sing, and as he hiccupped out by th.1 r-i-v-p-r side." his eye caught the form of his late partner, and he cut his song short and commenced making the moat dismal smsits he could think of at Mrs. s. This xvas enough; rousing Perkins from a drunken sleep into xvhich he had fallen with a dipper of hot xvater down his hack, and drugging her putatix'e husband from under the eounter by the Imir, she put herself at the head of the force and started for Smith. But, neither Perkins nor Frank Rizzio admired, the change; a comfortable snooze on a hot afternoon beat- chasing Smith or any other man, and the amazon had a mutiny on her hands before she could say Jack Robinson, and in attempting to put down the insubordination, brought on a triangalar internecine war that fetched the police down upon thorn in le-ts than three shake Mf a sheep's tail. T'ba mutinous masculines and their female captain were dumped into the cellar of the First District Station, to emerge yesterday afternoon only long enough to hearSuperoiicndent (Yarne say" $10 eaehi take 'em back." I has strained his arm throwing brickbats from the top of the bluff to the roof of the Rizzio ialaee.

He has had his revenge for the loss of his lady-loye. LETTER LIST. The folloxving Is the list ot letters remaining In the Memphis Postoffice and not deliverr-d by carriers yesterday: ladies' list.
