The interests lnvol-.t- i, ifnot the very sncc-ss- either prtiiect, seenm to demand one of these arrang ( .enta, and the farueet attention of the companies con- cerned showld be given ana urged to this sub- ject, as otberwtMM It would be useless to Incur further tronble or harass the people with ex- pectations in regnxfd to either road. It Is letter to wm s safely and wisely than fruit 'easly or or mahlv. rtecond Tbe line from Somervllle or the above luncUon to Memphis ought to be early settled, so tbat tbe energies of the people may be applied to a settled Una, and so tbat no lieartburnlngsor onmpialnl of duplicity may be made. Doubtlessly, considerate men and englneMra, with tbe map before them, and with auy knowledge at all of tbe country, can have little difficulty aa to tbe proper general ronte from Memphis to .somervllle ; for the road. If intended or needed for any purjtoMe at alt, should supply and answer the railroad wants of the people and ixmntry concerned. Tbe map shows a large and wealthy country etweeii the Memphis and Charleston and the Me up his aad Louisville roads, or the waters of Wolf and Hatch ie rivers. These roads run. generally, with those rivers re- spectively. The new road shou.d not run along with either of those roads or streams, therefore, unless the wants and business of the country along either demand it, aa nobody Is foolish enough to think. Neither the IjOuIs-vll- le nor Charleston road has heretofore sus- tained itself. Tbe one, after being leased, has now sold Itself, and the other is about to do the sane thing, In efleet: and both furnish, and are desirous, to supply, all necetaary war ts along their lines. How ridiculoua would be tbe Idea of running this new road by Bartleit on the north or Gsr man town on the south! What profit could result? What bat ex- pense, from such occupation, jointly, ot a :errltory which the existing roails are more than able to accommodate? The new road, em a railroad, thus run, would not pay the cost ol the lubricating oil. It would be wholly uae-,-s- in lbe meantime there Is a fine, rich country Intermediate and on the direct line, and needing and well able to support railroad facilities, and to help build the road. See the d country from Mempbls to Colonel Clayton and thence, crossiug Wolf river at right angles, to Fishervllle; and thence by or near line: ' to Somen iUe or the above junction! it will he observed that, treatise Wolf river and its hottcm seperate this fine highland country from tbe Charleston road, it is almost entirely without railroad facilities. It la comparatively mmote from either rood, and if the middle loute be not adopted. It will he readily conceded thai i he connection west of Somervllle with MempbU need only le by tbe oa- - or other of the exist- ing roads 'named the Lou-viR- e or .'bar lesion L and that the vast amount of unn.cessary out would be thus saved to tbe people and lbe ompanle.1 concerned. But an latorraedtaie road ought to be built and would pay, and no other can ie built or would pay oven for oper- ating it this side of Somervllle, Steer clear, then, or the Louisville and Charleston roads alike, so far as possible, if It is Intended to accommodate the country and socure a large business for the road, a buslotsvi worth a! least an hundred thousand dollars annually more then It tbe road abould be run within the immediate influence of either of these roads. 1 propose, as 1 may flndtlm, to offer you some thoughts on "norrow-guages,- " aud on our Memphis road.s and interests gene PKOGHESN.

Tbo night belore her husband was over the river, and ne hred two snots t4 aiiraci ttie atiemion ot me buaimn , snl iu knew he did not put any mote halis in his pistol. She knew he did not oad It again, because uie cartridges were in her room. The witness men testified In regard low hat she knew ol the family history ol tbe Mus so s. She sa d mey nad Jived unnapplly -- luje they got married. Mr. Grovea was oulj be ginning to Qnd It ou. When the last baby was horn she sent for me three limes In suc- cession, and the yellow woman who come lor me said he had struck her with a poker on ; he. head. 1 have a piece of the poker home now which ho bioke upon her hosd: when came in to see her sold: "Honey, did he strike you with the poker.'" and she sold yea, ttlvl anoweu sue iiere uc uuu uui uei. i siiuw no reason be tiud ior heating nor, ior i; sue had only h&i a itsboud, she would bs as good a wife as ever lived. I have known him Ut hu wtvitikf. ixnd Wisuivs when he would rot tUlow her anything to eat. on JeflaroonH'reet in- knocked the store down she could not ooofc anything, and he would not allow bar to get anything out of tbe store. Before Chris- tina, she went up owu and nought tnree chai;, and whoa they weratathotfie by it BpanliiU cruiser. MARRIED. he threw them uut on the street and locked nor out atso. i uia every t rung i couiu iu make them live mm msn an(f wife togather. In answer to Colonel itutiock. she il that tier husband kept tbe ferry over Wolf river, beyond i lielsea ; he told nor husband that tho only way to hat e peace was to have a separation between his wife; yes terday morning, wrier ne was preparing io come in, he ooatd, "Nov. Joa moat do what is right; Joe must now come up to the scratch sh must have enough to sup,, or her." Qneetlon -- Did you ever know Joa to bear. rested ior beating bis wile? i never i.now him to be arrostea only once for beating her. I u all the attempt- ed settlements, Mr- -. .Musso was the eaceabl- - party ; the object we had In coming m yester- day waa to have a peaceable settlement; we wanted to settle it with lairyers. To olonel imllocki I think you would settle it. Her father said he must come up to the scratch. This finished the testimony of .Mrs. Grovea, and ihejury moved back Into the room where Mr. Grovea lay dead, and proceeded, alter wsltlng half an hour, to examine Mrs. iraclt. Mrs. Hock, In answer to questions pat to her by Coroner Moflait, sold tbat she . ed at tbe corner of Poplar street and Qulnby ave- nue; knew Groveaoiuoo she was a child; knew Mnsso several years; was In his store Thurs- day eve dag, between four and five o'clock; after that saw Groves gulng there- - be did nut tell me be was going, bat I stopped and talked to blm and told him not to go. becausi, i.:.s - woa prepared for blm ; I said 1 woo passing there, and Mrs. Musso called me in; obe showed me the marks of violence ho bad indicted upon her: mm I woo going to leave tbe store, Musso ran out and said to Tils wife,"lf your father cornea,! am prepared for him. t. What caused him to soy this? A He oold some one hod told him he woo coming, and he was prepared for him; I mere- ly told Groves not to go there, his was much excited, and I wss afraid something was going to happen to hint; he appeared ex- cited, ana moved oft; .Mr. Musso told me I'd be mixed up In the affair If I stayed. Mrs. Hock's teoUmony concluded here, and Mr. John Grehan was examined. Ho said that Ihe night before the day uf the shooUng Mr. Mu-s- o went to his store, which is In tba neighborhood, and said, "HONEY AND I CANT AGREE; We cant get along together. I want yon to go over there and tlx things. I do not want auy expense Incurred In tbe way of lawsuits. If you don't help me to fix up things, 1 shall have to send after iap." Isold I'd consider of it, and send word next morning. A young man named Mahony cant after me in the morning, and sold Joe wanted to see me. 1 was eating my breakfast, and my wife re- marked: 'Yes: tbey are fussing again; I will go over too." We went over to the store. They wanted ine to see uuiunei nuiiocx. i went down town during the day, and had a conver- sation with llullock, and made some arrange- ments. I vas after leaving the barber's shop on Adams street, and woo in taking a drink In a saloon, hkii sergeant WYaiherford come and told ine thai tbe family had not. Here the evidence closed The Jury at once, on the conclusion uf Mr. Grehan "s testimony, retnrned the following VERDICT: "We find that the deceased, Mr. Groves, come to his death from tbe effects of a pistol shot fired by Joe Mnsso, which took etlect in the pit of the storaaeb." 1NTEHV1EW WI TH MltS. MIISSO. The Jurors then dispersed, and b reporter went to interview .Mrs. Musso. whom ne found in bed up stairs over tba store in which the shooting woo done. She was suffering from the combined eifecU of a severe kick on one thlgb and a pistol shot in the other. She said that fche was married to Musso five or six vears aao, and eight months ait If warn her h unban commenced lo abuse ber. She stated that she was the motheiOaY three children, i he voung -- ' of whom la only two mouth- - old. While living on Jeflerson street Musso olteu LEFT II Kit WITHOl'T FOOD, and on one occasion took away the tcveplpe, so t hat she could not cook any food. Since the last child was born he hod struck heron tbe head with a poker, making a deep cash, iu day before the shooting he gav e ber so severe a kick that she did not perceive when she was shot on Hceoiini oi tne pa'n resulting iron the Injury he mill ted. Shesald that he filed A BILL OF DIVORCE In lvin, and she filed a coos-ldt- and after uov or two he withdrew tho Mil. she com- plained bitterly that h's treatment of her had been vary severe all the time. Thoy bod a quarrel on tbe day of the shooting, aod she bad just gone upstairs. When she hoard ihe niatol--ho- t she rati down to the store and saw her husband firing across tbe counter.

First Two separate lines are not now re-

quired (if maintainable at Mill from Somsr--

tile to Mem phi or from a point of J unctionastof Somen ille, from Jackaon and Bolivar,

to Memphis, in view of this, it was well sug-

gested, some weeks ago by a writer In one oftne jt empun paf- - w vaw.satsvA.svCharleston road would do well with Its

branch to extend Uiat to Jackson at .i

and that some concert should be bad to tbatend bv the parties interested; or both roads

i 0'i HotnervlllM should make commonMtock from SomerviUe to Memphis so as lov)perate but one line. The interests lnvol-.t- i,

ifnot the very sncc-ss- either prtiiect, seenmto demand one of these arrang ( .enta, andthe farueet attention of the companies con-

cerned showld be given ana urged to this sub-

ject, as otberwtMM It would be useless to Incurfurther tronble or harass the people with ex-

pectations in regnxfd to either road. It Is letterto wm s safely and wisely than fruit 'easly oror mahlv.

rtecond Tbe line from Somervllle or theabove luncUon to Memphis ought to be earlysettled, so tbat tbe energies of the people maybe applied to a settled Una, and so tbat nolieartburnlngsor onmpialnl of duplicity maybe made. Doubtlessly, considerate men andenglneMra, with tbe map before them, andwith auy knowledge at all of tbe country, canhave little difficulty aa to tbe proper generalronte from Memphis to .somervllle ; for theroad. If intended or needed for any purjtoMe atalt, should supply and answer the railroadwants of the people and ixmntry concerned.Tbe map shows a large and wealthy country

etweeii the Memphis and Charleston and theMe up his aad Louisville roads, or thewaters of Wolf and Hatch ie rivers. Theseroads run. generally, with those rivers re-

spectively. The new road shou.d not runalong with either of those roads or streams,therefore, unless the wants and business of thecountry along either demand it, aa nobody Is

foolish enough to think. Neither the IjOuIs-vll- le

nor Charleston road has heretofore sus-tained itself. Tbe one, after being leased, hasnow sold Itself, and the other is about to dothe sane thing, In efleet: and both furnish,and are desirous, to supply, all necetaary war tsalong their lines. How ridiculoua would betbe Idea of running this new road by Bartleiton the north or Gsr man town on the south!What profit could result? What bat ex-

pense, from such occupation, jointly, ot a:errltory which the existing roails are morethan able to accommodate? The new road, em

a railroad, thus run, would not pay the cost olthe lubricating oil. It would be wholly uae-,-s-

in lbe meantime there Is a fine, richcountry Intermediate and on the direct line,and needing and well able to support railroadfacilities, and to help build the road. See the

d country from Mempbls toColonel Clayton and thence, crossiug Wolfriver at right angles, to Fishervllle; andthence by or near line: ' to Somen iUe or theabove junction! it will he observed that,treatise Wolf river and its hottcm seperate

this fine highland country from tbe Charlestonroad, it is almost entirely without railroadfacilities. It la comparatively mmote fromeither rood, and if the middle loute be notadopted. It will he readily conceded thai i heconnection west of Somervllle with MempbUneed only le by tbe oa- - or other of the exist-ing roads 'named the Lou-viR-e or .'bar lesion L

and that the vast amount of unn.cessary outwould be thus saved to tbe people and lbeompanle.1 concerned. But an latorraedtaie

road ought to be built and would pay, and noother can ie built or would pay oven for oper-ating it this side of Somervllle, Steer clear,then, or the Louisville and Charleston roadsalike, so far as possible, if It is Intended toaccommodate the country and socure a largebusiness for the road, a buslotsvi worth a! leastan hundred thousand dollars annually morethen It tbe road abould be run within theimmediate influence of either of these roads.

In answer to Colonel itutiock. she ilthat tier husband kept tbe ferry over Wolfriver, beyond i lielsea ; he told nor husbandthat tho only way to hat e peace was to have aseparation between his wife; yesterday morning, wrier ne was preparing iocome in, he ooatd, "Nov.

Qneetlon -- Did you ever know Joa to bear.rested ior beating bis wile?

i never i.now him to be arrosteaonly once for beating her. I u all the attempt-ed settlements, Mr- -. .Musso was the eaceabl- -

party ; the object we had In coming m yester-day waa to have a peaceable settlement; wewanted to settle it with lairyers. To olonelimllocki I think you would settle it. Herfather said he must come up to the scratch.

This finished the testimony of .Mrs. Grovea,and ihejury moved back Into the room whereMr. Grovea lay dead, and proceeded, alterwsltlng half an hour, to examine Mrs. iraclt.

Mrs. Hock, In answer to questions pat toher by Coroner Moflait, sold tbat she . ed attbe corner of Poplar street and Qulnby ave-nue; knew Groveaoiuoo she was a child; knewMnsso several years; was In his store Thurs-day eve dag, between four and five o'clock;after that saw Groves gulng there- - be did nuttell me be was going, bat I stopped and talkedto blm and told him not to go. becausi, i.:.s -

A He oold some one hod told him he woocoming, and he was prepared for him; I mere-ly told Groves not to go there, hiswas much excited, and I wss afraid somethingwas going to happen to hint; he appeared ex-cited, ana moved oft; .Mr. Musso told me I'dbe mixed up In the affair If I stayed.

Mrs. Hock's teoUmony concluded here, andMr. John Grehan was examined. Ho saidthat Ihe night before the day uf the shooUngMr. Mu-s- o went to his store, which is In tbaneighborhood, and said,

"HONEY AND I CANT AGREE;We cant get along together. I want yon togo over there and tlx things.

The board of directors of the Memphio G Ma

lign t company ileal re to declare. In an authoritative manner, the future policy of their company In regard to the sale of gas :

our company la poMseoaed of the most complete and ample appurtenances neoessary forthe manufacture and distribution of an adequate supply of iiluminating gas for the cityol Memphis, the right to vend which we claimaa an exclusive and vested right, .n additionto the extensive works for the max ulacture ofcoal gas, we have in operation a,rsraTus tori nan uXaclurlng gas frum naptha. under tbeuioccus secured by the Rand i Gale patent.Ily this method (owned and controlled en-tirely by us;, an illuminating gas Is manufac-tured by our company superior to that whichany other company can manufacture in thisetty, by from fifty to one hundred per cent.This Is a fact which will become patent toevery gas consumer of tbe city should anothercompany enter Into competition wlLh us.Within the present week an Improvement hat....mi made at our works which will forever

secure to this city the credit of pesjsessing alight unsurpoaoed throughont the globe.Through the some agency we will hereafterIs- SssM to correct, ;n a lew miuuien, ucucieucieo In the power of the light wc furnish occasioned by cold weather, or from other causes.

We do not propose to lose oconsumer on aceonntof mice. Should another company commence to sell gas at a price lower than the rotefixed bv this company, we will at once reduceour rate lo a point fifty cento per thousandcubic feet lower than the amount fixed uponby such other company, and will keep de--mi ndiniT !u be same ratio.

V- - e would remind the public that we desireno assurances or guarautleo on tho port of oarconsumers, as we believe that whenever mat-ters com- - to open competition, the superiorityof the light offered by this company, to saynothing of Inducements tn price, will recure acontinuance uf the patronage it has so longetj'tyeda

it is made the imperative duty of every offlcer and employe of this company to paystrict attention tu the wants and reqmrementsof onr patrons, and any lack of courtesy orneglect ol complaiais will subject the onenderto severe rebuke or prompt rAUmiaaai from our

by the board, and ordered published, December la, lsn.
