Alexander alms Bill Oliver, who was arrested by Detective Mat Shelby for having stolen a watch from Mr. A. W. Bradahaw at the Masonic picnic some time ago. The evidence was very clear, and Mr. Alexander alias Oli- ver was sent up in default of $3000, to answer at the next term of the Criminal Court. Alexander, it seems., cut the gusrd off the watch, and then picked it out of Bradahaw 's pocket In the most ap- proved atyle. He has already served a term In the penitentiary. It is asserted on good authority that an affair ot honor is on the tapis between Judge Barbour Lewis and James allagher. The latter, we under- stand, is the challenging party. There is j ust now a hitch in the correspondence, owing to a disagreement about the place where the combat shall take place. In arranging the cartel Judge Lewis' friend viarsad to have the battle ground located on Big Creek, while Alderman Gallagher's friends insisted on President's Island. The latter objected to going to Big Creek because, as his asserted, J udge Lewis is chief of the negro Ku-Kl- out there. The Judge retorts by saying that Jimmy wss an elder and chief exhorter in the negro community on the island, and that were he (the Judge) so fortunate as to kill him, the darkies would mob him issfore he could get away. The matter stands thus at present ; we hope that all difficulties in the way of a meeting may be overcome, and 'that the gentlemen may soon confront each other as the code directs. TO PLANTERS. THE MEMPHIS DAILY APPEAL FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1870. Tba Great laveatiaa of the Age Reversed-Motio- n Champion Cotton Gin and Hollar. FOR Ginning Cotton with or without Previous Picking from the Boll. For ginning cotton, regardless of how picked or gathered and splendid sample made. First premium vblue ribbon and diploma; swarded at the Louisiana .State Fair, New Orleans, April, 187U. We hare been appointed agents lor the sale of the above celebrated gins, and re- spectfully ask the earnest attention of planters to them, believing that they are a great improvement upon any gin now in use, and destined to work a perfect revolution in the ginning of cotton. A sample gin can be seen at our storehouse. cs. ion and djB f ront street, oeinw I nion, and all persons interested are in- vited to call and see for themselves. STEWART BROS. 4 FIXER. MEMPHIS MANUFACTURES. The earnestness with which many of our citizens are embarking in manufac- turing enterprises is illustrated by tbe conduct of those wbo direct the fortunes of tbe Wood and Willow Ware Manufac- - tawOsai 'unman v. The lot on whii-- tbe company's building stands is four hund- red and fo.-- v feet on Georgia street by one hundred and ieventy feet deep. Tbe brick building, the walls ol the basement and tbe story above being finished, would hsve been nearly completed had not the contractors unfortunately made a brick kiln, the product of which wss rejected by Colonel Halstead. The structure is made of tbe very best materials. Not only the brick used, but the joists and sleepers, are ot the heaviest and strongest description and of the soundest oak. Even the close fence, seven feel high, that incloses the whole lot will endure while cedar lasts. The floor is so constructed, and doorwsys in front snd rear, that a loaded wagon and six borses may pass through tbe building from ftont'to rear, discharging lumber or receiving the producta of the es- tablishment. The walls are two and a half bricks in thickness. An earth. uake could not overthrow them. Tbe very joists crossing tbe building are pinioned into the wails. The floors are thirteen fret apart, and tbe whole establishment will be tisdehed within and without, and stocked with machinery by the time the roof is finished. Only the walla of the third story remain to be completed, and the establishment will begin to make money during the month of October. Colonel Hal stead will soon hsve the uuv chinery In its plane, and it only re- mains for s few slow stockholders to adjust their accounts. Sums due from each are small, and to dun more than once in each instance is s tax upon time and patience. Tbe first wagons and cooper's ware will, it is believed, be turned out next month, and that the es- tablishment may not be embarrassed and have funds enough not only to complete the building, but stock it with ten tbou-ssn- d dollars worth of lumber and six thousand of machinery, it la necessary that each subscriber to tbe capital stock should pay tbe calls that have been made. Barrels made in Louiaville coat $2 'ib delivered here. Tbey can be made here, because of cheap timber, at a cost of not mors than one dollar each. The wagons used here are freighted from Chicago and Detroit, where lumber ousts M per cent, more than in this city. Wages are no greater here now than in Western cities, and the establishment will pay from 25 to 60 per cent, profit. Pay up. K 1.KI..U Si-k- i n. Railboad Mkkti.no.

The Some weeks ago, lured by some strange fascination, which we are at s toss to sz plain, although knowing that arrest would almost be the conse quence, Johnny Reagan, the notorious burglar snd thief, caano to this city, and showed himself openly on the streets. dsy or two after his advent, a friend of his came to this re Dorter and reo uesled that nothing should be said about him, as be had come beck with tbe Intention of reforming and earning an honest living Finding that the police were posted as to bis arrival, and that he was behaving ininHeii luieiiy, the request was com plied with, snd we did not allude to the advent ot the distinguished gentleman among us though we knew that he was "wanted " In several portions of this "great republic " on various charges. Others were not so oblivious, however, and information of hia where abouts was conveyed, among other places, to New Orleans, where, about a year ago, Johnny made one of the biggest hauls of his eventful career, we allude to tna DIAMOND ROBBEBY on Canal street. We have forrotten the number and the name of the bouse, but the following are the cirenmstauces eagan had been for a week or two hang ins around tbe establishment, and once or twice dropped in to rri.e jewelry among other iuioim a handsome diamond rinaj. One evening about dusk he stepped in and asked the jeweler to 1st him see tbe ring. Being dressed, acting and looking like a gentleman, the jeweler, an old man, handed out a tray containing jewels to the amount or gzoou or I3UUU. Pretending that he could not see very well, Johnny asked him to light the gas, snd, thrown off his guard, the jeweler walked back to the rear of the store to get a match, w ben he returned to the front he found his customer goneand with him uad vanished the tray ot "baubles. ro rush to the door and raise the hue and cry was the work of but moment yet the thief could no where be seen. The case wus put in the hands of a detective and properly worked up, but up to the present time lonnny, inougn irequeuuy in i.ue nanus of the officers of the law, has never been tried for the robbery. Ou Tutswlay laat detective V. J. Smith arrived from New Orleans with A REQUISITION for him, duly signed by the Governor of Louisiana, and an order from Governor Senter for bis arrest and delivery. Now it so hsppened that Johnny was at the very tints under bonds for his appearance before the circuit court at Humboldt for a certain robbery perpetrated by him and bis gang at that interesting village which robbery our readers will no doubt re member ano. which came very near cost ing Johnny his neck), some months ago. Hia bondsmen were Messrs Angelo Marre and James Schooiea. These gen tlemen, hearing that Johnny was liksly to be taken out of the State on the re quisition, and not liking the idea of hay ing to Yay several thousand dollars for his wnen wantea, on Wednesday concluded to surrender him to the Sheriff, which they did, and there- upon he was immediately arr-ste- and in the calaboose, proparatory to being locked up in the county jail, whither be was sont yesterday morninir Mr. Smith states to us that on applying to Shend W right, be was informed that he (the Sheriff: would not surrender tbe prisoner under the Governor's order, as that official bad no right to ex trad to the authorities of another State, s man already under ar- rest for a crime committed in his own State. Whether this be sound tow or not. we are not prepared ta say. but such is said to be the. tact. Mr. Sieith, who has once before had h fruitless trip to Nash ville on the same errand several months ago), is very much put out the mat- ter, and yesterday addressed a letter to Governor Senter, of which the following Is a copy : LKTTKK. Memphis, September 1, 1870. To his Excellency, D. W. C. Senter, Gov- ernor ot Tennessee : Sir I obtained from you the J5lb of February last, s requisition for one John Reagan, wbo is chsrged with larceny, in Louisians. At tbe time that I obtained the requisition I stated to you all the cir- cumstances of tbe case, and also concern- ing the larceny be committed at Hum- boldt, in thst State. As I hsve been informed by Sheriff Wright, of this oonnty (and also by Col- onel Curry, his predecessor), that you bsd no sulhority to grant s requisition, when you knew that there was a charge against him in the State. I therefore return to you your requisition, it being worthless to me. I would also suggest that you be more careful in future, in signing vonr name to worthless documents especially when it costs so much time and money to procure your signature. J. L. SMITH, Detective Police, New Orleans. Tbe above, we print merely an a part of the history of the affair, without com- ment or justification, other tuaa that furnished by the correspondence itself. BALL. The Bluff City Club va. too orgfui Club of Nashville Bluff City Victciioua. The Nashville Unum and American ot Wednesday gives the particu- lars of the mstch game played in that city on On Monday the Bluff City Base Ball Club, of Memphis, arrived at Nashville and played the Nashville Base Ball lub in the if rounds, to a iarge audience. The Nashville won by a score of 48 to 20. This was the first game for the champion- ship of Tennepsee. On Tuesdsy the Bluff Citys met the Morgan Bsse Ball Club, a junior club of Nashville, Tennessee, on the Fair Grounds. The attendance was not as large as tbe previous day, and all wbo missed seeing this game lost a treat. The Bluff Citys won by an unprecedented score of 12 to'9. This is the smallest score ever made in Nashville. This game was the finest ever played in this city, and tbe Morgan boys deserve praise for their fine playing, while tbe Bluff Citys played fifty per cent, better tban with tbe Nashvilles Monday. To-da- y the Bluff Citys play tic Nashville Base Ball Club the second fame of the series for the championship of Tennessee. They are confident that they can lieet the Nashville boys. Every person should turn out and witness the game as some very fine playing may be expected. Turn out and encourage our visitors, and send them home well pleased with Nashville and her people.

It is the fashion now-a-da- with aews- - reporters (snd it has been accepted eaper people as proper and right) to regard base ball as tbe " National" gasxM of tbe United States. We think billiards entitled to be so dabbed. It is older here, snd has been carried to greater per fection in tbe United States than elsewhere Id the world. Not long since we read an article from one who occnaass a deservedly high place in the world of billiards, in which it was stated that neither the French, Germans, Italians Spaniards nor English were equal to the Americana as billiard players. That here this health Inspiring game has been fostered and popularized until every town. city and hamlet can boast of its circle of billiard players, ait oi mem intelligent sa to the points of the game, and experts in making them. In Mem obis we have several billiard palaces, all of which are handsomely supported, all of them being among the most respectable resorts in the city. One of the first is the "Wlllet's," on Adams street, where eight of the handsomest tables to be found in the country (ait or them sup plied with Phelan's patent cushions) in a room well ventuaieu, sept in me nsas order, are occupied early aud late throughout tbe day by many of the most skilled of our billiard players. This elegant room has recently been rentted at much expense, the pro prletor being determined "WilleiV shall not lose one jot of the reputation it enjoys everywhere throughout the coun- try. Besides the billisrd mom, there ie in the admirably ventilated uad comfortable basement, four bowling alleys which, ail laat winter, were resorted to by our beat citizens. These also have been refitted. and we are assured that no pains will be spared to secure a con tinuance of the patronage which made 'Wlllet's" bowling all-y- s the chief resort of the citv. Mr. Converse, the proprietor, who is a host in himself, and who thoroughly understands bow to cater for his customers, pledges himself that from the opening or his establish ment on Saturday morning next, througl out the season, be will be found giving every part of it his personal supervision. tie is a sociable, pleasant gentleman, con ducts his business in a creditable man ner. and deserves the support of all lov ers of billiards in Memphis.

The recollection of long years of arduous and expensive labor in the ranks of the Democracy, dating far back to a period when, to be a Democratic politician in this city and county, ana to work for its establishment and success, was regarded hopeless and almost s reproach, has only endeared the party to me, and now excites my pride to see its triumphant hosts marshaling tor certain victory. Should the Democracy of Shelby and Fayette honor me with their candidacy. It shall be my pride and pleasure to bear their standard aloft in the face of every foe. If, however, this choice should fall upon another, I shall oe iouuu iu tne ranks, where I have ever been, battling uucomplainiuglv for the principles aud men of that party, in the success of which l religiously believe rests the salvation of tbe country and tbe preservation of free government. senator representing this, the metro- politan district of the State, the great financial, commercial, manufacturing, railroad and agricultural center of the Southwest, haa weighty responsibilities and laborious duties devolving upon him. and should be an active business man, thoroughly familiar with the routine of legislative proceedings.

Mr. A. O. Slsson. the detective attached to the steamer, while performing uis regular imuuigtll rounas, OU tne iOOK- - out for stateroom-robber- s and saw a man on the outer guard in the rear of tbe social hall, endeavoring to ob- tain an entrance to a lady's stateroom through the window. As no men are al- lowed In this part of the boat after dark, and the actions of the man being very suspicious, Mr. Siseon spproaehed close to him, and, pulling out hia dark lantern, threw the lighl full In his face. With the fierceness of a tiger, the man sprang at Slsson and dealt him a ter- rible blow on the skull, which felled him senseless and bleeding to tue deck; and while in that helpless position, tbe theR unknown man administered kicks and blows lo the prostrated man, until finally. not content with his fiendish work, he lifted Slsson up from the deck and hur- ried him to the rail to toes him Into the Sound. As be waa being borne along the deck, Siaaon gradually recovered bis senses, and i ust as he was being pitched overboard, grasped the man by his person, which caused him to cry out with pain. The cry roused the officers and passen- gers, who came to the scene of excitement. The man being secured, was put In irons, and upon being searched, waa found to be Lord T. Donald Campbell, son of the Lord Chancellor of England, who arrived iu the steamer Scotia last week. Some of tbe passengers, finding it was a real live Lord, were loud in their fr- - insist Issss iaraniat a Lord being pot In I rows Im- mediately after the arrest a lady's black allk belt wss found near the scene of the OOMOSantor, and aa no owner haa turned up, there is a mystery in relation to It which la yet unsolved. Lord Campbell was taken to Boston as a prisoner, and turned over to the United States authori- ties, charg,ed with assault with intent to kill, upon the high seas. Throughout the whole affair. Campbell showed signs of insanity, and the United States Commissioner before whom he was brought, adjourned the case until a com- petent medical examination could be made. The doctors declared him to bo ul unsound mind, and Lerd Campbell was removed lo tbe care of tbe British Con- sul, who at once planed him In the lunatic asylum, at Somervllle, Massachusetts. Influential friends at Newport, among them L. P. Morton, Esq.. took the matter in hand, and telegraphed that Campbell" showed remarkable symptoms of lussnity while on board of that steamer. Mr. siaaon baa recovered from Injuries so as to attend to his duties, bat bean a mark on his skull which be will carry to bis grave. The Lord C. now says he sap-pose- d that the officer was a robber, and he Intended to throw htm overboard. He now wants to settle the matter, and offers a good round sum to help heal the offlcei ' i wounded bead and feelings. The Nashville I nun, and American says: "Colonel A bert, who bsa the mat- ter In charge, commences y the sur- vey of the Cumberland river, with s view of ascertaining the obstructions to navi- gation that exist and securing a Congres- sional appropriation for having the same removed. His force.conslstlug of twenty-on- e men, many of them experienced and practical engineers, baa been organized and equipped. The services of that staunch craft, the Tone Hurt, have been secured for the purpose of f"rtng t he survey, and the force will commence op- erations to day. The survey of tbe river will first be made from this point to Its mouth, after which the I'ppsr Cumber land to the headwaters of navigation will be surveyed. We learn from Colonel A. that tbe work will be well and thorough- ly done, and that a full report will be made to tbe next session of Congress, from which the necessary appropriation may be confidently expected.
