Repeal or the Bankrupt Lav.
The bill repealing (he Bankrupt
Law was tlispo-.of in ('onstress on

being strictly amended, was adopted
by the House of KeprosontaUvea,and awake! awake! In the name of
the repeal will doubtless soon gbTh- tVktV dear to an American heart,

Freemen, awake! Your liberties
are iiTftuger! The institutions for
whichsour fathers shed their blood
are threatened! In the Legislature
last Friday a member from Delaware
county introduced a hill making it a
misdemeanor for anyone to “purchase
at public drinking places intoxicating
drinks for any other person than him
self—in other words, to deny you the
glor ions North American privilege
of setting ’em up. Awake, freemen !

as it is generally regarded as best by
the mercantile world that thereshoutil

question of bankruptcy between ail
the different States, an act of this na
ture mar be justified on the ground
of a regulation of internal Slate com-,

that tliere should lie a uniform law
regulating bankruptcies all over the

another such measure will be passed.
If such should be the case, it is to lie
hoped.that whatever is adopted will
be simpler, juster and more in the
reach of mil classes of reallv unfortun
ate debtors than was the one which
has Just been repealed.
(ien. Sum. Houston and his First
Wife.
The letter recently publ
Appeal, written by Col.
Williams, Nashville.has created much
discussion here in Memphis as to the
cause of separation of Houston from
his first wife. She was no doubt an
excellent lady: but we cannot believe
the story’ told hy her friends in Mem
phis, for General Houston was hap
pily married to his last wife, and, was
a most exemplary husband. Mr Ash
Jarman, of Texas, has just, completed
a memoir of the life of General Sam
Houston. Jarman’s version of tin

C#3FYin®®!(l
To-day I demoiiNtratc this truth by oll’cring Good and Fast Colored
i?alicoe$ at 5 Cts.
Bleaching one yard wide, at 7 ceni
Coats’ Spool Thread at 5 cents.
Shirting* at 5 Cts.
And all other Goods proportionately low.
Now let ua condense the old advertisement, and say something new
beneath it:
Within the last week I have soid over 8,000 yards of Calico. Dresses
have been made up, washed and ironed, and everybody savs it is ts good
anybody’s Calico. I don’t claim that it is any better, well-informed
[xrople know that the same Brands arc the same Goods, as one Factory
manufactures,but one line; to endeavor to make people think differently,
E ight take well with the ignoran’, but would be an insult to the inform-
fft wuld bo necessary to calculate upon their ignorance to think they
would believe such stuff I keep all brands of Calico.
Often it has been said within the last week it has been said, “Why you
re selling other Goods even cheaper in proportion than Calico, Thread
r : Bleaching.” This, believe me, is certainly so. But ft is impossible to
rtention every article. I simply invite you to come aud see. Kind aud
ibliging clerks will gladly wait ou you, even should you not desire to
nirchase.
The truth of my assertion tbs* I have benefitted the community and
ibcir pocket books will be better and better demonstrated to you as you
Will more and more avail yourself of the facilities I offer.
Trusting I may enjoy the patronage of merchants and consumers alike
n the future as In the past,
I am, very respectfully.
