(gjjjr Z. II. Cahill, Esq., (known as John
Cahill) died at Grand Glaize, Jackson county,
a few days since, of disease of the heart. Mr.
Cahill was well known on White river, having
for several years been engaged in rafting tim
ber. &c. He was a kind hearted gentleman,
and highly esteemed for his industry »nd in
tegrity. He has relatives, according to our
recollection, either in Indiana or Illinois.
Drowned.—We regret to learn that a child
of Wm.H. England, Esq., was drowne.d at
Brownsville, on Saturday, by falling into a
tub of water. The child, it was thought, had
been in the tub some ten minutes, when dis
covered. Life was extinct when it was taken
out.
flgg- The negro boy belonging to (Sol, J. C.
D;ivie who we noticed last week as having
been injured by a wagon wheel passing over
his body, we learn from Dr. Neel, left for
home yesterday, much improved. There is
but little doubt that this negro was intoxica
ted at the time the accident occurred. He
must have obtained liquor,somewhere in town.
Any number of our citizens will pay u liber
al reward for the arrest and conviction of any
person who will sell, or even give a negro
liquor without a permit from his master or
mistress. It injures the negro and will not
aid the trade of the town to permit these out
rages to be continued.
J. B. Locke & Co., Auctioneers, General
Agents; Real Estate Brokers, &c., Mem
phis.— By reference to an advertisement in
our columns, it will be observed that J. B.
Locke has determined, in company with oth
ers, to continue the Auction business, &c., of
the late firm of G. B. Locke & Co. J. B.
Locke has been actively engaged in the count
ing-room of his father—the late Col. G. B.
Lockk—for a number of years, and is thor*
oughly conversant with the Auction, Com
mission and Real Estate business in all its
branches, and possesses, in an eminent degree,
the ability to give full satisfaction to all. As
Mr. Locke is in possession of the real estate
plans, maps and papers of his father, his facil
ities are superior to any tlrm in me city, m
that respect. These valuable papers are the
perfection of long years of labor and experi
ence, and are treasures which the possessor is
fortunate in having secured. And in addition
to this fact, he has studied and fully understands
their meaning and import. We certainly wish
the firm plenty of business, and a rich reward
for their labors.
(J3g* We would suggest the following as
good advice to persons visiting offices and oth
er business places: “ Shut the door; and
when you have done talking, serve your mouth
in the same way.”

Good Advice.— He gave good advice wh
said: If you are in trouble, don’t tell of it t
every person you meet. Not one in a hundre
will sympathize with you. Some may spea
a w >rd of comfort; to turn away and ridicul
you. but precious few will laugh less frceli
