Frhihtenko Away. Some thief attempted to enter the residence of Mr. Jas. Flaherty, at 188 I'nion street yes- terday morning, by the favorite method of cutting the blinds. But one of the inmates being disturbed by the noise, made some demonstrations inside, which frightened the burglars away. Stop Him. Mr. G. W. Carroll, an auctioneer, gave information at the police office yesterday, that one Chaa. Hall, who had lately been in his employ, had obtained goods under false pretenaes, and had been guilty of embezzlement. A full description of the party ia in the hands of the police, but Hall is still at large. Ye call attention to the card of Dr. J.

A report was JZsther, forth ori on the streets yesterday a gin the feast atTair had taken place at the Gay-oa- o the night before, in which one man had been killed and another serloiudy wouuded. On inquiry we find that there was no grounds for the rumor, and that it was false in every particular. The residence of Capt. Larry Ham- - stad. on I'nion street, was visited by thieves on night before last, but after cutting awaj some Blats they left with- out effecting an entrance. The residence of Mr. .1...- -. j.!- Bruce was entered and several articles were stolen. Powder and ball are needed very Iwully In our city at present. Octraoe. Two meu named Chas.

Magnificent Masquerade Ball and Sumptuous Supper by the Memphis Hub. The Most Picturesque and Pleasant Affair of the Season. What Fourth of July is to the American people, and what the aiini-- i vemary of the Siguing tie Magna 'harta ought to be to the people of Eng- land, such is the Fourteenth Day tbe month Adar (which answers to our Twenty-ftrs- t of March to the descend- ants of the people of Israel all over the world. On this day, wherever dozen Hebrews may be congregated, thre rest and fasting," according to In- structions of Mordecal and the letters of King Ahasuerus, commanding that "should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city as memorial of the deliverance of their forefathers from the enemies of their nation. ORIOIN OF THE FEAST. Kvery student has read the book Ksther, and is acquainted the call- ing of Pur In tha twelfth year of the reign ef Ahasuerus, who ruled over the land of the east from Judea even unto Ethiopia," and also of the villainous use made of the "lot" Haman, who endeavored thereby to destroy the Jew- ish race, offering to ten thousand taleats silver" for the accomplish meut of bis evil purpose; but as all newspaper readers are not students in the strict sense of the word, wc furnish the following from the eighth Faijse Alarm. current chapter of setting the that shootiug of : And Estuer spske yet again before the king, aad frit down at bis feet, and beuulit Mm with uars to put away the mlarhtef lbe AHagi?e, and Ills device he bad devise" agaiust the Jews. Then the king l.eld oit the golden towards Esther. So Esther arose and stood before the king and said, If it please tbnkiug, and have fourd 'uvour in ills Bride, Mrs. M. Jvraus; n. i.,dn in his a.iet be written "er; to reverse the letters by Hainan tbe son of Hammedatha tbe Agagite, which be wrote to destroy the Jews which are in the king's prov.nccs; for how can endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people? or how can endure to see the destruction of my kindred" Then the kiug Ahasuerus said unto I'.sther Uie ami to Mordecal the Jes, ttehuld, have given Kclher the bouseof llamau, aud bim tiicy l;aye hanged upon the because lie laid bis band upan the Jews.

Aud in every ciiy, wbitheraoever tlie king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy am: gladueas, a feast and a good day." HOW KEIT IN MEMPHIS. This " Declaration of Independence," promulgated upwards of five centuries before the Christian era by the "chosen people " of Israel, was observed last evening at tbe Rooms of the Memphis Club by the Hebrews of this city in magnificent manner. There could no! have been less than Jive hundred present, and tbe convivial style in which they enjoyed themselves was exceedingly de- lightful, uot the smallest fan! pas oc- curring to mar the pleasure of the occa- sion. Every arrangement that nava been devised for comfort and ele-gan- was carried out to perfection by the various Committees previously ap- pointed by the Club ; and the great crowd of " masquers " who danced in the Ball Room and sat down in tbe Supper Room bad not single jot of complaiut to enter against the management of the waltzes or the setting of the tables, for the one was admirable and the other excellent. The scene in the Ball Riom was picturesque and imposing. Many of thecostume. were elegant, some iadies having paid as high as five hundred dollars each for suits; and we observed few gentlemen with more gold on their backs than possessed by all our banks put together. Humor- ous costumes however prevailed, and we noticed some that were so happy their " burlesque uniforms " as to create tbe utmost merriment. Both young and old enjoyed themselves in betwitching way, doing great credit to the Feast Purim. ROITINK OF ENTRANCE. The Masks on arriving in carriages at the Entrance Hall of the Club were re- -' ceived by the Reception Committee Messrs. M. A. Cohen, Chas. Strauss, Herman Gronauer and L. Iglauer who j conducted them to the Reading Boom, where the Examining Commmittee Messrs. A. Loeb, Moses Seelig, H. Sees-ee- l, Sr., aud Jacob Fiea-al- ter satisfac-tor- y scrutiny provided them with cards naming tbe characters they represented and a check stating that they had been examined. Tbe Parlor Committee-Mes- srs. A. Pollock, S. Feucht and L. Leubrie then took charge o: the Masks, seatiug tbem aud providiug for theit mirn'ort in the Ladies' Parlor. At nine and was acted in his usual man- - j the cornet was sounded, wheu ner. Mrs. Lanagau, as " Mary Middle- - j the Procession was formed in the Hall, ton," was excellent. Tbe other oharae- - j the Herald-Sa- m. Hirsch announced to lers uaanrrau, in his imposed Yesterday that the audience the character Mask represented, the coronet souuding in- tervals. As the Procession moved on- ward the Masks succession deposited their "tickets examination" the stair Committee Messrs. Julius Na- than and Charles Schloas and stepping the Room were received by the Floor Committee Messrs. Li. L set one, corner Bank alley and the alley be-- u . - Villl(.llt ... . ... , - "j "!i""". .

HotTbeimer, Esq., Presi- dent of tbe Club, and curried out accord- ing to instructions. THE HALL ROOM was very tastoly arranged, the Dramatic for masque scene. Above tbe foot- lights " was banner of blue, stretching from the picture of Schiller to that of Goethe, on which were the words, iu white and red, " Welcome to tbe Purim Festival." Other banners deco- rated the Room ; but the most prominent feature was smoothness of the lloor, prepared for " skating dauoe," which eclied auytblng "on ice" ever wit- nessed in the Central Park, New York. When all were on the floor, and set iu motion on the " light fantastic toe," the glitter and splendor was en- chanting. The Room was illumined ,M chandeliers, auu tneir urn THE SCPPER TABLES, which were five in number, spread through the Billiard and Assembly ID Rooms, were the most tastefully "set " we ever saw. Col. Prager and his capital clerk, Win. Yanakay, indeed showed taste in this particular that would have astonished the world-renowne- d Hoyer. The most observable decorations were series of "mock cakes," manufac- tured by the celebrated confec- tioners, Rubel & Nathan. One on the Officers' table, which was extremely tempting, created huge laugh when the President of the Club cut iato it with vim, and vu disappointed in finding it " saw-dust- ." Another was on a center table, bearing the inscription in red candv. "To the Honor of Uie President and Directors of the Meru- - thls Club." with pair of white hands clasped in token of friendship, frincred with silver flowers. Another bore the word "Purim " within single star formed of pink sqgsr on white grouud ; another was Leautlfully sur- mounted wilh palm leaves tipped with gold, rimmed with white and red sugar ; and still another bore on its top shep- herd's crook, with gold staff aud grean leaves, presenting beautiful object. But, alas! magnificent as all these were on tbe outside, within they werenething but common "cheese boxes," an admi- rable moral indicative of the empti- ness of " outward show." But apartfrom these " mock dishes," the tables grouned with all the delicacies of the season ; and we can safely assert that no man ever prepared such a sumptuous repast in such a magnificent st3le as that set by Col. Prager for the Feast of Purim, in the year !(? IJe is indeed the Prince of Caterers, and deserves the highest praise of the Club, uur want of space forbids us at present doing him full justice; but we cannot leave the table without expressing our conviction that the viands, as we learned from the labels had faeon furnished by Nathan Prothers & Co., were most supero. in 5ed, such pure juice of the grape never nourished our lips before.

PRESENTATION TO THE PRESIDENT OK THE CLUB. The most interesting feature of tbe occasion was the presentation of mag- nificent silver pitcher to Nathan Hoff- lieimer, Bu., Pre-ide- of the Club. The presentation was made by A. E. Frank-land- , Esq., in neat speech. He said it was presented to him not so much for the manner iu whicli he conducted the proceedings of the Club, but rather for their appreciation of him as friend and gentleman, and that he should be- queath it to his boy Sammy. The pitcher is a splendid piece of workmanship, and bears the inscription : " Presented to Nathan Hoffheimer by a few of his friends as a token of their esteem and friendship, March 21, 1S67." Mr. Hoff- heimer, iu returning his thanks, said he was taken by surprise, and, like a defeated general, he could only thank his friends for the compliment paid him, aud felt that the only way of getting out of the dilemma was to accept the "situation." UNM ASKING commenced at twelve o'clock, when the party proceeded to the Supper Room and did full justice to the "good things" prepared for tbem by Prager. After the sumptuous repast, ladies and gentlemen again marched to the Ball Boom, and contiuued tlie dance until near day- light. Never did we witness such hilarity, enjoyment and festiv- ity ; and we wish that the Feast of Purim, if possible, could occur almost every week. The Memphis Club has set a glorious example to all our citizens as to how they should enjoy themselves. Warning to the Public Who Ute Burn- ing Oil. Tlie states of Penusylvania aud Ohio forbid the sale of burning oils that will ignite at under one hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Missouri specifies one hundred and ten degrees, and these tests must be branded on barrels. All reputable dealers in illuminating oils understand this. "To preveut the pub- lic from being imposed upon " by irre- sponsible men, and to avoid accidents, we respectfully give notice that benzine, benzole or naptba will uot stand the above tests. All of these new patent burning oils now being advertised are made from one of these ar- ticles, and In absence of any spe- cific law in this state, may be sold with impunity. The public can best judge whether it Is safe to use any burning oil which is forbidden ...u account of its dangerous qualities) to be id in the above named statee, and others. The terrible accident on Adams street last winter, by which three lives were lost, resulted from the careless use of benziue. We will also state that we obtained from original inventor and discoverer, more than two years ago, the exclusive right to make oiks and iluids nnn rxplo-si- 'i " and vend the same, in West Ten nessee, ratuts woo iniringe on our Corji of the Club taking especial pains right will take due notice, under pen- - to have their stage "set " appropriately any oi p'" c a a the a tbe a a a a a a a a i, ; a a a the the tbe O.

The Louisville fbuner of Tuesday says: Tbe river was falling fast yester day, tbe average decline beiug about an selling lor and com uan menced tailing t has receded about teet the Head or the rails up to Boon yesterrhty. Although falling pretty fast, it still cotittwies out or its natural boun- daries at all point below the fails. We expect it to be falling quite fast to-- d iy, u u less checked by the i ncleme n t weather! which is the worst of winter, with a snow storm prevailing ail day. The month of March, thus far, has been the most per- verse and untoward we have ever expe- rienced. What was It Tbe boatmen at our levee and a few others whose business ompthed il.eui i on front sfraot about midnight last night, were aston- ished at the appearance of a dark l.witi inis object which shot down about midway the river and vanished around the point oeiow, ;n .eening;y but a moment of tltue. It bad somewhat the appearance of a monitor, but was darktr and less formidable looking. No liule trepida tion was relt by tbe superstitious part of our river meo, iqd u "living dutch man with its Ueree captaiu, was thought !, nave lost its reckoning, and mistakes our swollen river for a of its legiti- mate cruising grouud. Cp. Sam. Shock, however, whg ia set-e- in such matters, disoeUjJ ai) uneasiness by assuring tbem that tbe strange apparaition wa that of the Great Republic, which bad got a good start aftsr passing the Cincinnati bridge and was not able to check her headway at this port. Tbe Mollie Ham Piston came in from St. Francis river with 130 bales of cotton. She returns on her regular day, Tuesday next. The eirrurious boat Helena disap- peared ingloriously from our lauding night liefore last. The traps of the St. Louis circus, which wars on hord, were attached by tbe owners of tbe mat for $3tfcXl due as charter money. We could not learn bow the matter was arranged : we only know that the company don't play here, and left for above en another steamer yesterday. The business mana- ger of this office has an intereet, we think, in tbe whereabouts of that circus. We have no sign-paint- er In our eitv ; at least, w are led to think so from the faet that the Tennessee mutual fire in au ranee company imported a new sign from St. Louis, per steamer Belle St. l. .tiis. on her last trip.

HOW KEIT IN MEMPHIS.

This " Declaration of Independence,"promulgated upwards of five centuriesbefore the Christian era by the "chosenpeople " of Israel, was observed lastevening at tbe Rooms of the MemphisClub by the Hebrews of this city inmagnificent manner. There could no!have been less than Jive hundred present,and tbe convivial style in which theyenjoyed themselves was exceedingly de-

lightful, uot the smallest fan! pas oc-

curring to mar the pleasure of the occa-

sion. Every arrangement thatnava been devised for comfort and ele-gan-

was carried out to perfection by

the various Committees previously ap-

pointed by the Club ; and the great crowdof " masquers " who danced in the Ball

Room and sat down in tbe Supper Roombad not single jot of complaiut to enteragainst the management of the waltzesor the setting of the tables, for the one wasadmirable and the other excellent. Thescene in the Ball Riom was picturesqueand imposing. Many of thecostume. wereelegant, some iadies having paid as highas five hundred dollars each for suits;and we observed few gentlemen withmore gold on their backs than possessedby all our banks put together. Humor-ous costumes however prevailed, and we

noticed some that were so happy their" burlesque uniforms " as to create tbeutmost merriment. Both young and old

enjoyed themselves in betwitchingway, doing great credit to the Feast

Purim.ROITINK OF ENTRANCE.

menced. This whole routine was In-

spected by N. HotTbeimer, Esq., Presi-

dent of tbe Club, and curried out accord-

ing to instructions.THE HALL ROOM

was very tastoly arranged, the Dramatic

for masque scene. Above tbe foot-

lights " was banner of blue, stretchingfrom the picture of Schiller to that of

Goethe, on which were the words, iu

white and red, " Welcome to tbePurim Festival." Other banners deco-

rated the Room ; but the most prominentfeature was smoothness of the lloor,

prepared for " skating dauoe," which

eclied auytblng "on ice" ever wit-

nessed in the Central Park, New York.

When all were on the floor,

and set iu motion on the " light fantastic

toe," the glitter and splendor was en-

chanting. The Room was illumined

,M chandeliers, auu tneir urn

THE SCPPER TABLES,

which were five in number, spreadthrough the Billiard and Assembly

ID Rooms, were the most tastefully "set "

we ever saw. Col. Prager and his capitalclerk, Win. Yanakay, indeed showedtaste in this particular that would haveastonished the world-renowne- d Hoyer.

The most observable decorations were

series of "mock cakes," manufac-tured by the celebrated confec-

tioners, Rubel & Nathan. One onthe Officers' table, which was extremelytempting, created huge laugh whenthe President of the Club cut iato itwith vim, and vu disappointed in

finding it " saw-dust- ." Another was ona center table, bearing the inscription inred candv. "To the Honor of Uie

President and Directors of the Meru- -

thls Club." with pair of whitehands clasped in token of friendship,frincred with silver flowers. Anotherbore the word "Purim " within singlestar formed of pink sqgsr on whitegrouud ; another was Leautlfully sur-

mounted wilh palm leaves tipped withgold, rimmed with white and red sugar ;

and still another bore on its top shep-

herd's crook, with gold staff aud greanleaves, presenting beautiful object.But, alas! magnificent as all these wereon tbe outside, within they werenethingbut common "cheese boxes," an admi-

rable moral indicative of the empti-

ness of " outward show." But apartfromthese " mock dishes," the tables grounedwith all the delicacies of the season ;

and we can safely assert that no manever prepared such a sumptuous repastin such a magnificent st3le as that setby Col. Prager for the Feast of Purim,in the year !(? IJe is indeed thePrince of Caterers, and deserves thehighest praise of the Club, uur want ofspace forbids us at present doing himfull justice; but we cannot leave thetable without expressing our convictionthat the viands, as we learned from thelabels had faeon furnished by NathanProthers & Co., were most supero. in5ed, such pure juice of the grape nevernourished our lips before.

THE CLUB.

The most interesting feature of tbeoccasion was the presentation of mag-

nificent silver pitcher to Nathan Hoff-

lieimer, Bu., Pre-ide- of the Club. Thepresentation was made by A. E. Frank-land- ,

Esq., in neat speech. He said itwas presented to him not so much for

the manner iu whicli he conducted theproceedings of the Club, but rather fortheir appreciation of him as friendand gentleman, and that he should be-

queath it to his boy Sammy. The pitcheris a splendid piece of workmanship, andbears the inscription : " Presented toNathan Hoffheimer by a few of hisfriends as a token of their esteem andfriendship, March 21, 1S67." Mr. Hoff-

heimer, iu returning his thanks, said hewas taken by surprise, and, like a defeatedgeneral, he could only thank his friendsfor the compliment paid him, aud feltthat the only way of getting out of thedilemma was to accept the "situation."

UNM ASKINGcommenced at twelve o'clock, whenthe party proceeded to the SupperRoom and did full justice to the"good things" prepared for tbemby Prager. After the sumptuousrepast, ladies and gentlemen againmarched to the Ball Boom, andcontiuued tlie dance until near day-light. Never did we witness suchhilarity, enjoyment and festiv-

ity ; and we wish that the Feastof Purim, if possible, could occur almostevery week. The Memphis Club has seta glorious example to all our citizens asto how they should enjoy themselves.

Warning to the Public Who Ute Burn-ing Oil. Tlie states of Penusylvaniaaud Ohio forbid the sale of burning oilsthat will ignite at under one hundreddegrees Fahrenheit. Missouri specifiesone hundred and ten degrees, and thesetests must be branded on barrels.All reputable dealers in illuminating oilsunderstand this. "To preveut the pub-lic from being imposed upon " by irre-sponsible men, and to avoid accidents,we respectfully give notice that benzine,benzole or naptba will uot stand theabove tests. All of these new patentburning oils now being advertisedare made from one of these ar-ticles, and In absence of any spe-cific law in this state, may be sold withimpunity. The public can best judgewhether it Is safe to use any burning oilwhich is forbidden ...u account of itsdangerous qualities) to be id in theabove named statee, and others. Theterrible accident on Adams street lastwinter, by which three lives were lost,resulted from the careless use of benziue.We will also state that we obtained from

pressing this opinion. He stated thatthe two first sections passed regularly ;

six other sections were introduced by ahouse bill as amondments to the senatebill. Col. beauuiout, .eu. baton andothers were there to engineer tbe billt.'irougli tti? legislature, ue was
