The finest procession that marched through out streets on the occasion of a picnic ot that sort this year moved down Main street vesier lay. There were about four dred children in it. There were also four queens, including a May queen.
The ple remarked as the procession passed that it was exceedingly pretty, even beautiful. The children were- splendidly dressed, and the Queens of May, Flowers, Gypsies and Fairies were superb, attended as they were by gallant companies of r.ouaves. The procession was headed by a brass band of superior merit and great blowing qualities. The festivities ou the ground amazed about a thousand people. Mr.

Lilly, who teaches iu number lour." Number four in this building is not like number four in the Alabama street school-bouse. The children were all pretty, or nearly ail, very well dressed, and gave some signs of conscientious cultivation. The usual exercises were goue through with about the usual results. Some compositions were submitted, one of which attracted our learned reporter's attention, on count of i beauty. When he looked at the writing and punctuation, he was shocked, and the conviction was antly forced upon him that it was a giarism.
He was very sorry for that on account of the good looks of the girl and her modesty withal. Those who took prizrs are the lollowing: Harry (iantt, Charles Leftwich, Ida Adair, Carrie Wiler, Sarah Hallv, Annie Leech, Eugene wich and Patrick Kennessey. NUVEER ONE. This school is under the management of Prof. Mitchell, and is of course the school ol the building.
There was a marked similitude in the management and rial of this school 8ud in those ot the numbers one and two on Adams street. To uae a strong expression: the st ii II is there, and not mere face, though ol course it is not the very best of stuff, but it is good and very well handled. The room waa neatly rated with a profusion of evergreens and flowers, and the number of visitors was quite large, including several men of fessional inclinations. The pupils were put through geography, arithmetic, and grammar in a harassing and prolonged examination which showed the object of the teacher that they had been taught to reason, snd not merely to memorize. Tne specimens of map drawing that were hibited surpassed anything of the kind that were shown yet outside of the Court street building.

Gazette publishes the following.
aasertluK that it haa ceived the "facta" upon undoubted dence: "Mr. Z. J. White, whose oassa curred last week, was stricken on his return from our last court to his home in Brownsburg with the disease that proved fatal. On the day of his return he bad occasion to go into a room where was kept a clock belonging to his father, the late Robert White.
This clock is of the old- fashioned high kind, and has been stopped for years, not even having the weights attached, being merely kept as a family relic. When Mr. White entered the room the clock, which bad been silent ao long, distinctly struck He at the time paid no special attention to it, aud not being of a superstitious turn of miud, thought it was a mistake or an illusion of his fancy. The next day, or the day after, he again had occasion to enter the same room. Again the clock struck He immediately went out, telling his wife ot the circ*mstance, and remarked that he felt assured he was going to die soon.
His premonitions, as we have stated proved true, and in a tew days his spirit passed away." There is nothing "singular nor rious in it. Such results of panic in persons of superstitious imagination are familiar to all who have paid any attention to tbe morbid relations of mind and brain. I will give some facta wbich have come under my own observation and that of others, wbicb no doubt will, in the mation of the author of those lines, place me and others in the category of persons of "superstitious imsgination." It is popular with some people to ridicule facts when they have no evidence ot disproving them, or argument to overthrow them. It is the easiest way to dispose of msny things that occur which cannot be counted for upon sny hypothesis or theory with which they are familiar. As the St.
Louis Chrittian Advocate has kindly oflered that largest weekiy of ligious papers published in the world in exchange for the Christian Index, snd I know aud esteem its editors and publisher, I take the liberty to give theui some facts which no doubt will, in their estimation, entitle me to be classed among the sons of superstitious imagination." Five years since I was at my place with my family, in Woodruff county, near Augusta, Arkansas. My wife's health had been feeble for along time. Her physician had told me, before we went over th6re, that she might die in twenty-four hours. Her health wss partially restored after a lew months residence there. She waa, however, taken with her old disease, and after a tew days' illness she died.
On the mantel in her room was an old clock wbich had not run or struck for years, only once, which was the day before she died. A little over a year afterward, a noble boy of about four years, named for Robert K. Lee, was taken sick, lived a few days, tbe clock struck once, and the next dav he died. The following summer my daughters visited mv brother. Dr.
W. P. Watson near Memphis, and took with them their youngest brother, Durell. He had always been a very healthy cnild, but was taken sick at mv brother's aud in a few hours died. 1 ho clock on the mantel in sas struck once again, and in a few hours we received a dispatch that Durell was dead.
The next autumn the clock struck again and our Lillian, a babe of six months of age. passed away from us to join those who had gone before. Once more that fall, about day, the clock struck again, no oue hearing it but my wife and myself. We concluded we would say nothing about it. Soon after breakfast, as some company came in, the clock struck agaiD.
There waa a young man, Samuel R. Apple, who wag teaching achuol in the church close by, who was boarding with us, who had gone on a visit to his mother, near Austin. He had a paralytic stroke, and was supposed to be dead tor abont two days or more. He, however, recovered. One more case.
My father died in that neighborhood about twelve years since. Brother Coleman, the preacher on the Augusta circuit, lived that year on the place. There was about such a clock as is described by tbe Gazette. "It is of the old fashioued high kind, and has been stopped fur years, not even having the weights attached," but was packed away up-stairs with some lumber ever since the death of my father. Brother Coleman's child was sick, the clock struck once at night.
The next day his child died. I have given you the facts, Mr. Editor, even at the risk of being called tious. I need nut give you my tion or theory, but I would like to have yours. All of these times except the last were in the daytime, that the clock struck snd was beard by different members of the family every time.
Were you in Dr. A. II. Red ford's offlco when we were together at Nashville cently, when be told us of tbe glass breaking over the picture of Bishop drew. You remember he has a fine ness of all the Bishops hanging againsl the wall in his office.
It seems, it may be superstitious to believe it, but Dr. Bedford told it to quite a'nuinber of preachers, that hi- the time the Bishop was tacked with what produced his death, the glass broke over hia picture. I then told them what I have written of the clock striking, etc. Yesterday evening as I was going home, I met a friend at the door of a music store ou Main street. A gentleman came in just then with his arms lull of picture frames.
I mentioned the fact of the glass of Bish Andrew's picture breaking. He said be had known of a number of siuiiiar cases. There are many things occurring equally "singular and mysterious," but people do not like to be called "superstitious," and hence rarely mention them, for fear of it. I ask the question, are these "results of panic" or "the uiorbid relatione of mind and brain as you ssid of tbe Virginia case. Or are they given us to demonatrate one of the most consoling doctrines taught in the Bible? I leave my friends of the St, Louis fAriifian Advocate, or any one else, to answer to the satisfaction of many ious inquirers after truth, was it "panic" that caused the clock to strike when the child was shrouded miles distant, and we bad not the slightest knowledge of his having been lick?

P. can, were appointed to take the necessary steps to collect the Monumeut 1 mid note. Mrs. M. C.
Gallaway then tendered her resignation as President ot the Associa ciation. Her remarks were impromptu but beautiful, tull or leeling and priate. She briefly recapitulated tho tory of the society and the work it had performed. She said that for thirteen years she had presided over some able society, and had ever labored to do her duty. But it was human to err, and she bud no doubt committed errors, but they were of th6 head and not of the heart.
In looking upon the band of ters present, she saw those with whom she had long labored, and with whom she had visited the hovels of poverty: with whom she had canvassed the city, ministering to the wants of the suffering; with whom she had knelt around the bed of the sick and dying and around the holy communion table. With all these sad associations, it waa painful for her to Bever her connection with those she loved and the society that had so long filled her heart. But deelining health monished her of further incapacity for good, and ahe asked for the election of a younger and more efficient person to take her place. In retiring she wonld not cease to feel a deep interest in the sociation. She returned thanks to the true and noble women who had so long labored with her, and to the generous public, for while the ladies bad been lavisn in labor the public had been generous in gifts.
Iu turning over tbe papers Mrs. Gallaway said she had collected and disbursed thousands of dollars, and the vouchers would show how every dollar had been appropriated. In regard to the Monumental Fund she said the Association bad ordered her to loan it out at interest. This she had done, taking a note, which at the time was proved by the society, and could have been discounted at any Dank in tho city. Tbe letter she had just read, showed that the money was in safe hands, and from her knowledge of the mm and his great anxiety to pav it, she believed it would be prompt ly Uquidated at the time specified, tine Impel that during the thirteen years she- bad been engaged in the work of tering to tbe wauts of tbe needy, she had, sometimes, cheered the dreary march of the great army of the ioor, aud promising to co-operate iu the good work, she again thanked the ladies who had so long and zealously labored with her, and could only say farewell.
The effect of Mrs. G's remarks waa au eloquent tribute to the high esteem iu which she is held by tic- Association. Whereupon Mrs. O. P.
Foute became temporary chairman, and the lollowing resolution was tiered and carried unani mously Jtesotveii, luat tho Association apprc ciating the able anil taithtnl manner an the uniform kindness with which Airs.

WM. FRANE, 220 Main street. Yesterday morning, aa suggested by the appeal, there was an lnrormal meetln of several prominent citizens at the office of Mr. Greenlaw. Mayor Johnson waa asked to preside and an editor of the AP peal was appointed secretary.
Among tuuse present were Messrs. ureen law, Minor Meriwether, M. J. Wicks, Sam Tate, A S. Mitchell, John Overton, Frank hlte, W.
BE. arrington. The subject matter of discussion was the condition and fortunes of the Mississippi River railway. It had been said by the Appeal that any delay In the execution ol the contract woutd prove ruinous, and that the sooner we knew whether the Norton contract would be complied with tne oetter. mere waa nothing gained awaiting the action of the new Board Directors to be elected next month, an everything might, be lost.
Mr. ureenlaw held up a copy oi yesterday -s appeal, and ad dressing the chairman, Mayor John son, said that he would ask the gen tleuieu present to contemplate that right ful list of defaulting tax payers. Here are nve and a half of these broad pages tilled with the names of those who cannot or will not pay their taxes. When I see this I am almost prepared to surrender ana to stand still, or submit to any worse iate. Colonel Lacy said he was willing to aee wbk could be done under tne lncohate contract with the Messrs.
Norton, 'i hat if we failed to comply with the exact terms prescribed, he was assured by these gentlemen that they would, if it were possible, make up from other sources, ou deficiencies. St. Louis, within twelve months, will have a road to Little Rock it was already controlling a road to Nash ville, and tbe Mobile and Ohio road gave at. i. mis control or the country east an south or us thus we are hedged in ou every hand, and there was only one way of escape, aud we would give the eastern cities and States access to this cotton market the Mississippi River road must be controlled by ourselves and not be suffered to become a mere feeder to St Louis lines.
But this was better than nothing. Besides, the counties north of Memphis must have a railroad, and they could not escape isolation under the -Norton contract, or one like it, connect ing Men phis and Paducah, they would divert the road to Columbus, and we would become a mere outside suburb tributary to the greatness of the great city ot -Missouri, in other words. Mem phis would never constitute a point in the Kreat route oi r.astern travel aud mi merce between Eastern cities and the Pacific. SOLID PACTS. Mr.
Sam Tate said he regretted to differ from Mr. Greenlaw, It is no nger possible, because it is not right to compel a few liberal individuals to bear the burden or building railroads. With out them cities cannot exist, still less can they prosper. Ad van! aires they confer are not confined to the few, but bless the many. Kich and poor alike are tboir beneficiaries, and while Mr.
Greenlaw aa served his willingness to invest aa an in dividual, the task he would accomplish 1 t-1 vtouiu avail uiiu noiuing more than would any any other citizen. Counties and cities should build roads, and not sutler the burden to fall upon individual members of society. He had endeavored to induce St. Louis in to extend the Iron Mountain road to this citv. Instead of this St.
Louis seeks to flank us on the east and on the west, and we must take care of ourselves. At this hour the Mo bile and Ohio road iu the hands of St Louis, is doing Memphis more detriment than the Mississippi Central. There are lour great railway lines now hedging us in and restricting our trade, and we could omy escape irom their meshes by build ing two independent lines; this through r-aducah to mcennes. Indianapolis and the r.ast, and the road to Marshall. Texas across the river.
St. Louis is not content wuh the wholesale trade which we prof feied that city, but it cumca to our doors and demands control ot the retail busi neas of thia city. It would remove our cottou market, in which half a million bales are told, to that city, and now olferB a heavy premium for the best cotton bale, to be exhibited at its World's Fair. We approve the wisdom and enterprise of St Louis, but should emuute its example and enterprise, and not tamely surrender our wealth and resources and magnificent future to the graspn commerce of that city. All tne roads bevond the Ohio h-tve a gauge ot four feet eight and a half inches, ana to tins the gauge ot the faducah road was conformed.
If we build thia line all the wealth and travel of the East directed to the West would pass over this route so miio was required to be doue to complish ends so vast that he could not consent to abandon the purpose ot ing tbe road to Paducah. Sixty-five miles are unisneu, lorty graded, and only a lit tie distance unprovided tor. Jt we tate we deserve desolation and decay. The Mobile and Ohio road proposes to buy the urancu to rauuean. it uas ollered excel lent terms to the Messrs.
Norton, and if we do nothing these gentlemen will sult their interests and make the cunec tion with Mobile. Here the terms offerel by the Mobile road to the Messrs. Norton were oxplalnedj. amount of the tax. The amount of the tax proposed will be rue mm added to tne preseat nor ceulaire.
All Eastern roads will be forced over this route, because the shortest to tbe Southwest, and he, Mr. Tate, would willingly pay a half per cent, tax rathor than lose the road. The Big Sandy road will be Mulshed iu July, 1872, and over this route we wouid have the shortest possible route through Paducah and Elizabelhtown to tho East. These cou- ctious will make Memphis the greatest co' ton trading city on the continent. They will bring here all the crops as far toutu anu west as vicksburg and Shreve- port.
We must build this Paducah road and thus escape destruction by lateral roads. Mr. Greenlaw said that while he dreaded any additional tax, he was willing to mit the force of what Mr. Tate said, and cjnfess that tho value and importance of the Paducah connection could hardly be exaggerated. Col.
Laeey spoke of an enthusiastic meeting in Trenton, a town which had only recently begun to trade with phis. The people there are very anxious to come to Memphis, and we must make an effort to give them facilities demanded. Col. Mitchell was asked, to state his views of the matter under discussion. He did so with great clearness and ness, defining his objections to the Norton contract, but asserting that if thia were the only mode of accomplishing the desired enu we snouid not hesitate, col.
ell's speech will appear in full hereafter. Mr. iate said that thetMessrs. Norton were conscious of the necessity of making their road a great through trunk line. They knew it would become the best road property in tbe country if extended to Memphis, snd therefore their preference for this Memphis and Little Rock, and Shreveport connection.
If Memphis will furnish $200,000, and the county $100,000 the Messrs. Norton would build the road in twelve months. In any event, we have everything to lose by doing nothing, and it they fail to accept onr proposition we are in no worse condition than now. and other capitalists and railroad builders will take their places. Col.
Cacey, interrupting Mr. Tate, said that Ex. Norton had said him that if we could raise $810,000 here and in the county, he would build the road ately. Mr. Norton, said that he had a ter from Ex.
Norton, whieh stated that if Una city would invest $230,000 in the road, he would bai'd the road in twelve months, and all he asked was immediate action. If this be not done, Col. Mitchell is right, and Memphis muat look to other roads and other capitalists and railroad builders for a short route to the East and to Chicago. Colonel Meriwether said that prompt action was above all things desirable. He approved many of Colonel Mitchell's suggestions, and to build the road he was willing to make any reasonable sacrifices.
If Ex. Norton will not bnild the road when we have done our utmost, we must look to other sources of relief. We must go to Paducah and not surrender all that we have to St. Louis. Messrs.
White, Tate and others spoke of the necessity ol preventing tbe sale of the r-auueau road to the Mobile ana Ohio, which would bo effected within ninety davs if we took no action. Colonel Mitchell again adverted to the necessity for the consolidation ef this faducah road with the road to Shreve port. He said that this fact would at once induce the Pennsylvania Central to seek the control of this route to Marshall, Texas. He did not know that these binations could be etleeted at once, but believed it. Mr.
Tate replied that the time had not come for himself and those with whom he was associated to enter Into any oombiua- tsou with any railroad company east of the Mississippi. There are two hundred miles of railroad to be finished from vil's Bluff or from Little Rook to den and Shreveport, and accomplishing this work the co-operation ol the roads on this side the Mississippi would be quired. Five millions must be expended, and each of these great roads from phis to Norfolk, from Memphis to ville and from Memphis to Paducah and Indianapolis and St Louis, should contribute to the achievement of the task undertaken by Mr. Greenlaw and his associates, Mayor Johnson ssid that as a private citizen he waa prepared to approve all that had been aaid aa to the necessity for tne execution of the agreement with the Messrs Norton, and he thoroughly ciated the wisdom of Colonel Mitchell's statements and the necessity for the nection with roads beyond the Ohio. The Mayor added that he doubted whether the city legislature could be induced even to submit tne proposition to a popular vote.
He was exceedingly anxious to have the conuection with the Big Sandy, Lexington, and Elizabeth town road, which would be an invaluable connection to Memphis. If the PennsylvaniaCentral will indorae tbe Memphia and Paducah sissippi River) Company'a bonds for one million dollars, Memphis would readily subscribe $250,000. Col. Laeey answered, if you will give us tne szou.uuu ki Norton win do the rest Col. Tate said that he was assured by the Messrs.
Norton, when In New York a few days ago, that if we furnished the $250,000 in bonds they would finish the road at once. Mr. Greenlaw asked the Mayor if tbe people wouid vote it if the subscription were made payable in instalments as the work progressed. The Mayor answered that it might thus be carried. Col.
Meriwether wanted the question settled at once. Speedy action Is of vital lm portauce. John Overton said be was willing to vote for the subscription psyable asfthe work progressed. The following reaulutlen, oflered by Col. Frank White and seconded by Mr.
law, was unanimously adopted: Whereas, We are satish-d tbat it Is the interest of the city of Memphis tbat the Mississippi River railroad should in completed without aid from any city north or northwest of Paducah, and Whereas, Aid to the extent of $200,000 from tbe city, will, in our opinion, secure this object, we, therefore, ask our city to msko such subscription in ten years six per cent, bonds, to be issued one-half upou the completion of the road to -vington the other half upon the completion of the road to I Toy. Resolved, That we petition the author! ties ot the city to make a subscription of upou the terms above stated stock certificates lo be issued to the payers. These propositions will at once come before the City Councils, and upon their action depends the fate of one of the most important terprises with whose fortunes those ot this city are inBeparably allied. We are in for it, and tbe question is whether we can atlord to lose the outstand ing county bonds ia the hands of Mc- Combs, and whether we can surrender everything to St. Loais, by failing to have an independent connection with the States beyond the Uhio.

Opium Polygamy Infanticide Idolatry, aud other Abominations Shall tbsy be Allowed to Coaie to Us Paul Bagley, formerly Bible distributor throughout the empire of China and eler among many nations, lectured day night in the Christian Church of this city, ou the Ch'nese. The audience was very large and composed of the lutein gence aud beauty of Memphia. tie opened with a description of their country, carrying his hearers over the great plain ot Pekin, waving with wheat and dotted aver with villages, towns and cities.
Then took them over a range ot mountains into a beautilul valley, teem ing with all that is necessary to make man happy. Described the country down the lellow river lor a thousand miles, over hich region be was carried a prisouor. Said the river has burst over its banks and now goes out into the Gulf of Pecheli, and not into tbe Yellow Sea, as laid down on the maps. Then carried his hearers to the south of the Empire, a journey of fif teen hundred miles, and thence through the tea-producing province, which is the center of the Empire and a very rich gion, ihenee up the rapids or the great river, where it required a hundred and fifty men to draw the boat. Tnence through the most western province of the tmpire, called the frovince ot szcheueu, or our Streams," meaning tbe vince of rains, where rivers take their rise.
He described "his as a moat fartile region, and indeed the whole Empire aa highly produc'ivo. He then spoke ot the manner ot constructing their houses as generally rude, sometimes of brick and sometimes of frame, eoure with board floors and some of brick or earth, times build tire in the middle of the house to smoke out inosquitos, aud smoke out pe ple, too. ituamen hsve a heathenish practice of plm.iug somethii into their queue thai looks like hair, but is not to make the: queues reach trom the waist to the beels Ladies deceive tho "Heathen thinoe with paint and powder.

Can we tolerate their po- lvsamv? their opium-eating? their lulant- lcide? and all their abomination? God has uttered his eternal flat against it, and Burlingame is dead, may hia treaty die also.
The lecture of which this is an line, was 'listened to for above an hour and a half, to the close, with the most found attention. The 3oth of May haa been set aside by common consent as the day for the taneous decoration of the graves of the Federal dead, wherever situated, in the United States. The National Cemetery. a few miles from this city, was the scene yesterday of a great display of much mournful enthusiasm. The colored ple were out there, according to the beat computation, to the number of five sand.
It wss universally remarked that there waa a very evident Improvement in their appearance, manner, dress and general deportment. upon last year's display. Indeed, their behavior was exemplary, and elicited tion on all hands. Trains commenc going out st sn early hour, every one of which was loaded to their utmost capacity with humanity and nowers. ay noon-time tuny nve thou sand persons were present.
The early hours of the day were spent by the crowd distributing their tl iral offerings upou the little posts tbat marked the graves of the dead heroes. The cemetery was alive with people. A great and happy change is going on in which is marked from year to year. that place out there which was so low and swampy originally, owing to the excellent system of drainage is now quite ury anu tne suruooery and trees are improving last. ine circular space in the center was prepared with a staud properly decorated with wreaths of evergreens, flags and nowers.
At half past one o'clock, Coloael Eaton U. S. Marshal I West Tennessee, called the people to order, and Judge Hudson was made chairman of the occasion. In a few moments there were whole acres of people gathered around; and tbe great mortar, which was decorated with wreaths, soon bore us load or little Air, can enri osity waiting to hear what wss going ou The first and principal speaker of the day was Juutte Lewis. Iu other words he was tbe orator of the day.
He spoke for about an hour ou various matters, and on the immediate question of the dead and their glories, etc of the occa aioi. The band played many of the na tiotial airs, and some mournful ones that are not national. It is odd how a dirge near becomes a national thing, here is a deep philosophical principle in this, which our learned rr porter disposss of in this wwe A national dirge is tho requiem of national life. It is never sung. There is no life left to sing it.
eve Grayson's excellent martial band was there, doing honor to the occasion. Judge Harry S. Lee made a short address which was highly spoken of. Among those noticed around the stand were Colonel Eaton, Captain Gar rett. Judge Hudson, Judge H.
S. Lee. Ueneral W. Smith, General terson, JuJge Bigelow, and the learned reporter of the Appeal. TLe organization known as the Independent Order of Polo Bearers" turned out iu very creditable style.
They numbered over four hundred, and presented a most spectable appearance. Outside the grounds there-were as many as a nunareu otns, saloons and eating establishments, and yet not one instance of any sort of dis- tur bancs occurred during the whole day i'iiere were no accidents repor.ed. The remonies were trjught to a close before ur o'clock, aud shortly atterward the d- began to crowd toward the road. Train after train came into the city rowded with people, but no acoident is r. carded.
All were in tne city by eight clock, in every respect tne uay was success. GERMAN NATIONAL BANK OF MEMPHIS. Officers H. E. GARTH, President.
