The Memphis Buy* : “ The he mic exertion!* of a hold adventurer, vrlio J napped off n aieunibout coming up tho river, ami thereby saved the life of n pret ty nnd favorite poodlo dog, is likely to gain him a fortune and a wife. An aged maid of money urnl sourness, who was a jiascenger on the City of Helena from Vicksburg to St. Louis, dropped her dog in into the river as the steamer was coming by. Tlia bold and im|>ocunious youth sympathized with tho lady, and saved the life or her pnp while risking his own. He became a fast friend of tho lady, had ids quarters transfered from the deck to the cabin 1 and bus every prospect of be coming a husband and a mlllionaric in St. Louis within a month. - - The Portland Transcript gives Autumn this first, rate notice : "lirown October Inis come, aud shortening days give token of the changing season.

CONTEMPTIBLE ACTION OF FED ERAL SOLDIERS. They Rob tho Wife anti Children of an imprisoned Comrade. Our reading nnd personal < ; - •- -• n-• - has induced us to believe that no 1 1 , of men urn more devoted and chivalrous to one another limn soldiers—men who have shared the privations, sufferings nnd (lan gera of the tented fluid. An unfortunate comrade always appeal to the sympathies of Ills fellows, and eases are numerous where lives lmvc been risked and lost in the defence of a brother soldier. This feel ing, however, does not scan to animate the breasts of some of the buys who c port tlio bine, as tho following incident, which occurred on Hunday lust, at Fort Pulaski, will prove. It would, perhaps, not he gouerous, how ever, to charge this contuinplihlo act to the entire garrison. Doubtless there were many men there who feel indignant and incensed at uu outrage which reflects so much discredit upon their profession ft will lie remembered tlmt in .June lu'-t, Hubert E. Carr, Sergeant Battery H. sta tinned at Fort Pulaski, in attempting, to quell a disturbance, created by some drunk en solders, shot nnd killed one by tho name of Jordan. 110 was shortly afterwards given a preliminary trial before U. B. Com missioner Wnyno, which resulted in hrs being commiled to jail on the charge of murder. There lie lias been ever since. There was much sympathy expressed for the young man at the lime by the specta tors, as there was in the testimony of some of the witnesses too much fueling expret -ml against him. This was explained by the fuct thnt he was a rigid officer, and com pelled the men to do their duties. It will also lie remembered that in August last. Sergeant Bell, the principal witness for the accused, was Bet upon by a man named Logan, nnd sonic others, former soldiers at the Fort, nnd severely beaten in a bar room in this city— and it was geueially believed that it was on account of his evi donee given at the trial mentioned The following card, from Sergeant Carr, which is published in one of the dailies of yesterday, will explain tho great outrage that lias been perpetrated upon him and his family, by some of Iris comrades : Please give me space enough in your journal to set before the public an account of u fiendish and heartless robbery which fins been perpetrated upon my wife aud children The community is aware that 1 have been for tho past three months mi Justly confined in Chatham couniy jail upon a charge of murdering a soldier at Foi l Pulaski, while In the discharge of my duty as Bcrgcant commanding the guard, luendeavoring to suppress a mutiny at the fort, (in Sunday last, during the absence of my wife and child from their residence, some soldiurs at the garrison broke in and forced open the trunks and chest, from which they stole every dollar belonging to myself aud family. By this dastardly robbery my wife and children are deprived of the means of oh mining tho actual necessities of life, and being closely confined myself'tu a prison cr. I am powerless to institute any meas ures of redress, but can only hope, through thu medium of your influential paper, to louse t lie dormant energies of the proper authorities at thu fort, who will exert themselves to discover the heartless pel petrators of tho crime, mid secure, if pos slide, the restitution of the property.

TUB DKi'APEXCB OK .nil ItN ll.l'Tll IVUI ritvisM. limn the X. V Kerning Pori.; It is extremely dilllrult to give a precise definition of what wo menu liy the word "Jenkinism," although every one is well acquainted with tho article. It might be called lluanciul news gathering, iu which the news was told, not as news but ns u means of ministering to someone's vanity You might say it was minute l’nul l’ry- Isiii, where l’niil was invited to the him quel hoard and then expected to tell nil the world w hat great people were present . what the great people wore and wlmt they said, of the manner in which Miss A. toyed with her soup, and the wav in which Miss it ate her fish, of the blushes which inttii tied the virgin cheeks of MlssC. when her neighbor, “who distinguished himself in the late fratricidal war," naked her if lie might give her some more of the fruit, and kindred disgusting details. In short, it was Ktiobbism run mad about very vulgar people It must be confessed, how ever, that Jen kins did his drudgery with an air Me was a pretty youth, and wore his livery like a duke. He peeped in at drawing rooms us though lie ow ned the mansion , they were so many pieces of calico w hich lie was selling oil at auction; lie noticed tho tapestry, and counted the lmirs in my -lady’s false braids , he marked the equip Hgos, and could tell you to n fraction how many times each carriage wheel went nroliud iu a minute . he detected the num ber of bank bills in each gentleman's pocket book, am! measured out his buttery in due proportion; and he did all this in a cheerful, unconstrained slid unconscious fashion, which was very diverting in spite of its vulgarity. Jenkins, moreover, tv bibbed a discreet indifference as to the character of Uie fish that canto into his uet. He was always a true Democrat, and gave us "The near o'prlnces, dukes and earls. Pimp*, *-b*trj.,ts. bawd*,and opera girl*" in tho same bltllisotiio strains Often, in deed. bo went further tbau this, aiui re counted nitli extra particularity llic np penrauce ami manners of those whose rep utations were not. in ropoetto cleamies>. like the driven snow T hose who were notorious lie inane more notorious, and he was not careful about tin- l at.-c of their notoriety. Of course, in this indisertminatliig s eft!; into private affairs lie sometimes fell foul of ladies und gentlemen from whom bis inquisitiveness met with merited contume ly. nud from whose houses his graceful form was ejected with deserved violence. Hut, os a rule, lie was a favorite among these upon wltoui, cannibal-like, he fid, aud as they road hi* glowing periods thee smiled complacently, and confessed the [ pen was mightier than the sword Hut Jenkins has fallen. All the summer i throng a M'c Lave looked lor Uis elegant letters iu vain Once or twice wc lmve (Uttered ourselves that we detected the familiar style iu the verbose letters of "EU lUrkins but a closer examination unde ceived us. The airy humor, the graceful manner and the unconsciousness of Jon kia* were ail lacking, and we wete forced to the conclusion that Jcukluism was no longer in the market. • 1 here arc sereral for this era- cious tuking-off. The public lias been in terested all summer in more important uf fuirs The trial of the corrupt Judges of ' this city, un exciting political canvass for | the Presidency, and kindred matters have | fl ed the public attention But wlmt lias been more influential, our ] watering-place society has changed in character within tho year. Jenkins finds no Jim Fisk or Helmhold to furnish food for liis stomach and pen now People of notoriety have not been in good order tills summer, and if bus been discovered iicre and there that a decent reputation is of more value than abundant shekels. Those who love to make a display and to he, tulltcd about have accordingly simulated modesty, and poor Jenkins bus been de nied even the crumbs from under the tu bles of bis former patrons. In addition to all this, Mr. mid Mrs. Shoddy and all tho little Shoddies have gone to Europe. Whether this was lie cousc the Mime expenditure of money would make a greater show there thau here, or because it was the modish tiling to do, we do not attempt to decide. The fact remains that many of the new rich have sought a foreign people among whom to display their abundant jewels mid their superfluous ducats. The result lias been that the prey lias -lipped from Jenkins’ clutch, and the poor fellow died of starva tion. We hope that no one will weep at Ids death. lie was a low, vulgar creature, a parasite and a pest. It is to be re membered, however, that the doctrine of the resurrection is not yet out of date, and lie may come to life, although we sincere ly hope tlmt our merely fashionable peo ple have outgrown his insane babbling, aud that they will not cull a physician COFFEE. ( oiisiimers of this fragrant berry have ] he* ii disappointed that the "lieu breakfast i table.' 1 which politicians promised them when the duty on coffee of 1 cents per pound gold was abolished, lias not been visible even in a remote degree. The wholesale prices have been slightly re duced, but consumers have thus far been unable to obtain any benefit from it, espe cially if they use the better qualities. Much bm appeared in tho public prints to show, that this is due to speculative iuilu cnccs, and nearly as much to combat this view If we look into the merits of the case, we hull probably find that Hie laws of trade lmvc controlled this matter, and that although speculative influences have been at work, they have been merely aux iliary forces. Tho crop in all coffee pro ducing countries in 1871 was a short one, but tho ample stock of old coffee left over prevented auj' material advance until late in the season, when the receipts of smaller supplies confirmed the reports, and prices went up. Then came the agitation of the abolition of thu tariff', and the final law making it free on July I. This checked trade and reduced slocks on hand throughout the distributing cities, so that when the first of July came there was a rush to buy cof fee, which activity in the market kept up prices, especially on (lie bettor grades, tho supply of wliicli Ims been light: mid even now every fresh cargo of Hie better grades Is taken with avidity at full prices The crop this year is larger than tlmt of 1871. and the stock at all ports, October H', was 78.!152 bags 1 {in. and ti 11,817 bags other kinds at the corresponding date last year This is by no means a large supply, espe cially us Hie people of the United States consume more coffee per capita than any , other country except Holland nnd Bel gium ; but it is large enougli with the prospective to keep supplies as low ns they now are, and perhaps to cause a moderate decline. I lie effect of Hie abolition of the duty on coffee lias been then, to prevent a large advance, and will ultimately lie to give us the reduction in price equivalent I to the duty abolished ; but the coffee pro ! d,icing countries must have full crops : before this cun be fully realized.— Cincin mini frier Current.
