The Recorder yesterday morning ex-

amined one J. W. Alexander alms BillOliver, who was arrested by DetectiveMat Shelby for having stolen a watchfrom Mr. A. W. Bradahaw at the Masonicpicnic some time ago. The evidence wasvery clear, and Mr. Alexander alias Oli-

ver was sent up in default of $3000, toanswer at the next term of the CriminalCourt. Alexander, it seems., cut thegusrd off the watch, and then picked itout of Bradahaw 's pocket In the most ap-

proved atyle. He has already served aterm In the penitentiary.

It is asserted on good authority thatan affair ot honor is on the tapis betweenJudge Barbour Lewis andJames allagher. The latter, we under-stand, is the challenging party. There isj ust now a hitch in the correspondence,owing to a disagreement about the placewhere the combat shall take place. Inarranging the cartel Judge Lewis' friendviarsad to have the battle ground locatedon Big Creek, while Alderman Gallagher'sfriends insisted on President's Island.The latter objected to going to Big Creekbecause, as his asserted, J udge Lewis ischief of the negro Ku-Kl- out there.The Judge retorts by saying that Jimmywss an elder and chief exhorter in thenegro community on the island, and thatwere he (the Judge) so fortunate asto kill him, the darkies would mob himissfore he could get away. The matterstands thus at present ; we hope that alldifficulties in the way of a meeting maybe overcome, and 'that the gentlemenmay soon confront each other as the codedirects.

MEMPHIS MANUFACTURES.

The earnestness with which many ofour citizens are embarking in manufac-turing enterprises is illustrated by tbeconduct of those wbo direct the fortunesof tbe Wood and Willow Ware Manufac- -tawOsai 'unman v. The lot on whii-- tbecompany's building stands is four hund-red and fo.-- v feet on Georgia street byone hundred and ieventy feet deep. Tbebrick building, the walls ol the basementand tbe story above being finished, wouldhsve been nearly completed hadnot the contractors unfortunatelymade a brick kiln, the product ofwhich wss rejected by ColonelHalstead. The structure is made of tbevery best materials. Not only the brickused, but the joists and sleepers, are otthe heaviest and strongest description andof the soundest oak. Even the closefence, seven feel high, that incloses thewhole lot will endure while cedar lasts.The floor is so constructed, and doorwsysin front snd rear, that a loaded wagonand six borses may pass through tbebuilding from ftont'to rear, discharginglumber or receiving the producta of the es-

tablishment. The walls are two and a halfbricks in thickness. An earth. uake couldnot overthrow them. Tbe very joistscrossing tbe building are pinioned intothe wails. The floors are thirteen fretapart, and tbe whole establishment willbe tisdehed within and without, andstocked with machinery by the time theroof is finished. Only the walla of thethird story remain to be completed, andthe establishment will begin to makemoney during the month of October.Colonel Hal stead will soon hsve the uuvchinery In its plane, and it only re-mains for s few slow stockholdersto adjust their accounts. Sums due fromeach are small, and to dun more thanonce in each instance is s tax upon timeand patience. Tbe first wagons andcooper's ware will, it is believed, beturned out next month, and that the es-tablishment may not be embarrassed andhave funds enough not only to completethe building, but stock it with ten tbou-ssn- d

dollars worth of lumber and sixthousand of machinery, it la necessarythat each subscriber to tbe capital stockshould pay tbe calls that have been made.Barrels made in Louiaville coat $2 'ibdelivered here. Tbey can be made here,because of cheap timber, at a cost of notmors than one dollar each. The wagonsused here are freighted from Chicago andDetroit, where lumber ousts M per cent,more than in this city. Wages are nogreater here now than in Western cities,and the establishment will pay from 25to 60 per cent, profit. Pay up.

IN DEMAND.

Wants Hlat Kara.The

Some weeks ago, lured by some strangefascination, which we are at s toss to szplain, although knowing that arrestwould almost be the consequence, Johnny Reagan, the notoriousburglar snd thief, caano to this city, andshowed himself openly on the streets.dsy or two after his advent, a friend ofhis came to this reDorter and reo uesledthat nothing should be said about him, asbe had come beck with tbe Intention ofreforming and earning an honest livingFinding that the police were posted as tobis arrival, and that he was behavingininHeii luieiiy, the request was complied with, snd we did not alludeto the advent ot the distinguishedgentleman among us though we knewthat he was "wanted " In several portionsof this "great republic " on variouscharges. Others were not so oblivious,however, and information of hia whereabouts was conveyed, among other places,to New Orleans, where, about a year ago,Johnny made one of the biggest hauls ofhis eventful career, we allude to tna

DIAMOND ROBBEBY

on Canal street. We have forrotten thenumber and the name of the bouse, butthe following are the cirenmstauces

eagan had been for a week or two hangins around tbe establishment, and onceor twice dropped in to rri.e jewelryamong other iuioim a handsome diamondrinaj. One evening about dusk he steppedin and asked the jeweler to 1st him seetbe ring. Being dressed, acting andlooking like a gentleman, the jeweler, anold man, handed out a tray containingjewels to the amount or gzoou or I3UUU.Pretending that he could not see verywell, Johnny asked him to light the gas,snd, thrown off his guard, the jewelerwalked back to the rear of the store to geta match, w ben he returned to the fronthe found his customer goneand with himuad vanished the tray ot "baubles. rorush to the door and raise the hue andcry was the work of butmoment yet the thief could nowhere be seen. The case wus put inthe hands of a detective and properlyworked up, but up to the present timelonnny, inougn irequeuuy in i.ue nanusof the officers of the law, has never beentried for the robbery. Ou Tutswlay laatdetective V. J. Smith arrived from NewOrleans with

A REQUISITIONfor him, duly signed by the Governor ofLouisiana, and an order from GovernorSenter for bis arrest and delivery. Nowit so hsppened that Johnny was at thevery tints under bonds for his appearancebefore the circuit court at Humboldt fora certain robbery perpetrated by him andbis gang at that interesting village whichrobbery our readers will no doubt remember ano. which came very near costing Johnny his neck), some monthsago. Hia bondsmen were Messrs AngeloMarre and James Schooiea. These gentlemen, hearing that Johnny was likslyto be taken out of the State on the requisition, and not liking the idea of haying to Yay several thousand dollars forhis wnen wantea, onWednesday concluded to surrender himto the Sheriff, which they did, and there-upon he was immediately arr-ste- and

in the calaboose, proparatoryto being locked up in the county jail,whither be was sont yesterday morninirMr. Smith states to us that on applyingto Shend W right, be was informedthat he (the Sheriff: would notsurrender tbe prisoner under theGovernor's order, as that official badno right to ex trad to the authoritiesof another State, s man already under ar-

rest for a crime committed in his ownState. Whether this be sound tow or not.we are not prepared ta say. but such issaid to be the. tact. Mr. Sieith, who hasonce before had h fruitless trip to Nashville on the same errand several monthsago), is very much put out the mat-ter, and yesterday addressed a letter toGovernor Senter, of which the followingIs 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 ofFebruary last, s requisition for one JohnReagan, wbo is chsrged with larceny, inLouisians. At tbe time that I obtainedthe 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 SheriffWright, of this oonnty (and also by Col-onel Curry, his predecessor), that you bsdno sulhority to grant s requisition, whenyou knew that there was a charge againsthim in the State. I therefore return toyou your requisition, it being worthlessto me. I would also suggest that you bemore careful in future, in signing vonrname to worthless documents especiallywhen it costs so much time and money toprocure your signature.

BILLIARDS,

i of the Billiard Paloeao of Meaphla- -

of Wilier on Saturday.

It is the fashion now-a-da- with aews- -reporters (snd it has been acceptedeaper people as proper and right) to

regard base ball as tbe " National" gasxMof tbe United States. We think billiardsentitled to be so dabbed. It is older here,snd has been carried to greater perfection in tbe United States thanelsewhere Id the world. Not long sincewe read an article from one who occnaassa deservedly high place in the world ofbilliards, in which it was stated thatneither the French, Germans, ItaliansSpaniards nor English were equal to theAmericana as billiard players. That herethis health Inspiring game has beenfostered and popularized until every town.city and hamlet can boast of its circle ofbilliard players, ait oi mem intelligentsa to the points of the game, andexperts in making them. In Memobis we have several billiard palaces, allof which are handsomely supported, all ofthem being among the most respectableresorts in the city. One of the first is the

"Wlllet's," on Adams street,where eight of the handsomest tables tobe found in the country (ait or them supplied with Phelan's patent cushions) in aroom well ventuaieu, sept in me nsasorder, are occupied early aud latethroughout tbe day by many of the mostskilled of our billiard players.This elegant room has recentlybeen rentted at much expense, the proprletor being determined "WilleiVshall not lose one jot of the reputation itenjoys everywhere throughout the coun-try. Besides the billisrd mom, there ie inthe admirably ventilated uad comfortablebasement, four bowling alleys which, aillaat winter, were resorted to by our beatcitizens. These also have been refitted.and we are assured that no painswill be spared to secure a continuance of the patronage whichmade 'Wlllet's" bowling all-y- s thechief resort of the citv. Mr. Converse,the proprietor, who is a host in himself,and who thoroughly understands bow tocater for his customers, pledges himselfthat from the opening or his establishment on Saturday morning next, througlout the season, be will be found givingevery part of it his personal supervision.tie is a sociable, pleasant gentleman, conducts his business in a creditable manner. and deserves the support of all lovers of billiards in Memphis. We look fora crowd and a crush at Willet's on opening day, Saturday, September 3, 1870.

POLITICAL.

KBSPONSR OP COLONEL KERR HE WILLRUN IF NOMINATED.

Editors Appeal In response to thenumerous calls made upon me. both public and private, to become a candidate forthe Slate Senate, and especially thatwhich appears in this morning's Appeaf,.over the signature of " Countryman," Ihave to say, If I can serve my party and:ny country, as a Democrat aud as a citi- -7.sn, It is my duty, and should be mypleasure ever to bold myself readv forriueh service, and I hereby place my nameat the disposal of my friends, as a candi-date for tbe Senate. The recollection oflong years of arduous and expensivelabor in the ranks of the Democracy,dating far back to a period when, to be aDemocratic politician in this city andcounty, ana to work for its establishmentand success, was regarded hopeless andalmost s reproach, has only endeared theparty to me, and now excites my pride tosee its triumphant hosts marshaling torcertain victory. Should the Democracyof Shelby and Fayette honor me withtheir candidacy. It shall be my pride andpleasure to bear their standard aloft inthe face of every foe. If, however, thischoice should fall upon another, I shalloe iouuu iu tne ranks, where I have everbeen, battling uucomplainiuglv for theprinciples aud men of that party, in thesuccess of which l religiously believerests the salvation of tbe countryand tbe preservation of free government.

senator representing this, the metro-politan district of the State, the greatfinancial, commercial, manufacturing,railroad and agricultural center of theSouthwest, haa weighty responsibilitiesand laborious duties devolving upon him.and should be an active business man,thoroughly familiar with the routineof legislative proceedings. Should tbeDemocratic party deem me a suitableperson to invest with the honors and re-sponsibilities of such a trust, I nan onlypromise to be found over at my post, ex-erting whatever cf iblllty 1 may rr mniifor the beet interests of my district andNta.

It is stunning. Many look aux- -iously, no doubt, for the "solemn lime'alluded to, "when the chill Novemberwiuda roar and moan among the forestgiants like the voice of desolation tailingon death ; when the sky has disappearedbehind the cloudy pall; when the 'gentlerace of Dowers' are all in their graves;when the wild north winds, sweepingover tbe bosom of the ' great river,' setsthe water wraiths to weeping, then, inthat solemn time! then there will beplenty of water for big boats. Let, there-fore, your hearts not be troubled.

On Tuesday of last week an affair oc- -eurred on board the steamer Bristol, of.oe rail river line, wnien came near resulting fatally to one of the officers ofthat boat. Mr. A. O. Slsson. the detectiveattached to the steamer, while performinguis regular imuuigtll rounas, OU tne iOOK- -out for stateroom-robber- s and

saw a man on the outer guard in therear of tbe social hall, endeavoring to ob-tain an entrance to a lady's stateroomthrough the window. As no men are al-lowed In this part of the boat after dark,and the actions of the man being verysuspicious, Mr. Siseon spproaehed close tohim, and, pulling out hia dark lantern,threw the lighl full In his face. Withthe fierceness of a tiger, the mansprang at Slsson and dealt him a ter-rible blow on the skull, which felled himsenseless and bleeding to tue deck; andwhile in that helpless position, tbe theRunknown man administered kicks andblows lo the prostrated man, until finally.not content with his fiendish work, helifted Slsson up from the deck and hur-ried him to the rail to toes him Into theSound. As be waa being borne along thedeck, Siaaon gradually recovered bissenses, and i ust as he was being pitchedoverboard, 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 tobe Lord T. Donald Campbell, son of theLord Chancellor of England, who arrivediu the steamer Scotia last week. Some oftbe passengers, finding it was a real liveLord, were loud in their fr-- insist Issssiaraniat a Lord being pot In I rows Im-mediately after the arrest a lady's blackallk belt wss found near the scene of theOOMOSantor, and aa no owner haa turned

up, there is a mystery in relation to Itwhich la yet unsolved. Lord Campbellwas taken to Boston as a prisoner, andturned over to the United States authori-ties, charg,ed with assault withintent to kill, upon the high seas.Throughout the whole affair. Campbellshowed signs of insanity, and the UnitedStates Commissioner before whom he wasbrought, adjourned the case until a com-petent medical examination could bemade. The doctors declared him to bo ulunsound mind, and Lerd Campbell wasremoved lo tbe care of tbe British Con-sul, who at once planed him In the lunaticasylum, at Somervllle, Massachusetts.Influential friends at Newport, amongthem L. P. Morton, Esq.. took the matterin hand, and telegraphed that Campbell"showed remarkable symptoms of lussnitywhile on board of that steamer.

Mr. siaaon baa recovered from Injuriesso as to attend to his duties, bat bean amark on his skull which be will carry tobis grave. The Lord C. now says he sap-pose- d

that the officer was a robber, andhe Intended to throw htm overboard. Henow wants to settle the matter, and offersa good round sum to help healthe offlcei ' i wounded bead and feelings.The Nashville I nun, and Americansays: "Colonel A bert, who bsa the mat-ter In charge, commences y the sur-vey of the Cumberland river, with s viewof ascertaining the obstructions to navi-gation that exist and securing a Congres-sional appropriation for having the sameremoved. His force.conslstlug of twenty-on- e

men, many of them experienced andpractical engineers, baa been organizedand equipped. The services of thatstaunch craft, the Tone Hurt, have beensecured for the purpose of f"rtng t hesurvey, and the force will commence op-erations to day. The survey of tbe riverwill first be made from this point to Itsmouth, after which the I'ppsr Cumberland to the headwaters of navigation willbe surveyed. We learn from Colonel A.that tbe work will be well and thorough-ly done, and that a full report will bemade to tbe next session of Congress,from which the necessary appropriationmay be confidently expected.
