THE MEMPHIS CONVENTION

-
. This body met last week We have seer. seen
account of its proceedings. We have before .a ~
ken of its objects, so far they have been s,sio,
by the press, as chimerical and visionary. Ir,su
effect should be a revival of the mania for Ri;
roads and other Improvements, 10 be buiIt =.
credit, or by swindling the people with IA cs. VI
money banks, the consequences, will uhim,r,s,..
be disastrous, and deplorable. Ono Of the maj
objects, as we understand, is to devise a plan r
the construction of a railroad from Memphis "
some point on the Mississippi. to Charleston NJ
Savannah on the Atlantic. 1t seems to us H..
the slightest reflection will convince any comm"0
sense man that such road, If completed, wonId
be Improbable indeed we doubt whether ~
revenue, In the present sparsely settled condn;oD
OF the country, would pay for repairs and eS
penses, much less refund, or pay interest on N.
immense amount of money required for its con
sttuction. The freight on bale Of cotton ~,
hogshead OF tobacco, from Memphis to New o..
leans, 10 81 ,50 or $500 by railroad to CHARLES
ton, would be SO or $l0-and in like propor,ion
tor all other products. The people of the Mis-
sissippi valley need no other channel of trade ,b,,
their own mighty river and its great tributaries
and 1t is matter of establishment that such will
impracticable schemes are stated to be subiecls
oil consideration for the meeting at Memphis. c,n
be seriously proposed. But the other day w.
noticed plan grayely put forth in the column,
of contemporary journal at Natchez-( Natcbe,
against the world for, humbuggery, yetl)-pro.
posing to build a railroad, ''immedia,ely if M,
sooner" from Charleston to Natchez, to be con.
tinued westward, where do 20 suppose, reader2
why, over valleys and rivers, hills, plains
prairies and mountains, to the Gulf of California;
Why stop at California 2 Why not tunnel "a.
Pacific, and terminate the Natchez and Charles.
ton railroad at some commercial point in N.
dominons of His Celestial Majesty the Emperor
of Chinai "" N75r
No less visionary and senseless are other
schemes proposed for the action of the Convention
such as--leveeing hundreds of miles of wild
swamps, cutting ship canal from the Illinois 10
the lakes, navy yards aud stations, SC, &c. TO be
effected by appropriations from government. Wa
are anxious to see whether Mr.. Calhoun, and 9th
er Southern State Rights strict constructioniss
members of the Convention, will join in these chi.
merical schemes to plumber the national treasury.
and create necessity for high tariff taxes, hos,so
official drones, and splendid corrupt government
The only Praiseworihy movement we have seen in
connection with the " great Southwestern Con-
yent!on, Is a resolution introduced at a meeting
In Marshall county, by Roger Barton, asking the
Convention to memorabilia Congress for the grad
nation and reduction of the price of the Public
Lands. ,.T - - -'~

CONGRESS.

We have nothing of importance from Wash
ington. Mr.. Davis, of Kentucky, on Tuesday,
affOred resolution
I" That committee Of five be appointed to let
the printing of the House TO the lowest bidder
after ten days advertisement, in the newspapers
printed in this city; the person or persons to whom
Ut may be let being required to give bond with
suffclen! security for the proper execution of the
work and the necessary printing, in the mean
time, the clerk of this House is required to have
done by the printers for the last House,
This resolution was discussed by Messrs. Davis
and Bayly OF Accomack, during that part of the
day which was not occupied in reading the mes
sage, but without coming to any conclusion
There is no doubt that Messrs Richie 8, Heiss
will be the Printers, as they received the caucus
nomination on Monday evening. Mr.. B. B.
French the present clerk was nominated over Mr.
Weller, he receveng 78, and the other 26 votes
Mr.. Whitney, of Indiana, received the nomination
Of Doorkeeper.
The correspondent Of the Baltimore Sun saws:
The greatest harmony appears to prevail in
the democratic party, notwithstanding all the ru-
mors ofits discussions. They are certainly agreed
as to men, and we shall soon see how far thew
may differ as to measures"

PROMOTION OF EDITORS.

The foreign correspondent of the United States
Saturday Post says, the editors of newspapers.
both IN England and France, are brought out by
the people as their Representatives In Paris.
The conductors of the leading public journals, are
members of the Chambers, and in England. the
leading proprietors of the Times, the Morniru
Chronicle, the Weekly Chronicle, the MorninS
Herald, and those of the several Provincial pa,
pers are members of Parliament" In France il
is well known that many proprietoIs and editors
oil papers have long occupied position inferior TO
no other class of persons. Several of the most
distinguished persons Of the kingdom, has been
connected with the press.
In this country very few editors are ever
thought -pf for any public station. They are
made the stepping stones to the elevation of men
who are dependent upon them for character and
knowledges The people of this country, do not
look TO those who know and would maintain their
rights, but seek aid from lawyers, generally the
OFFSPRING OF some family, who having obtained
little money, become ashamed of honesty and in
dustry. and in their children sink all the res
pectabiliy they ever possessed, by bringing them
up to profession of some kind or other, without
thinking for moment, whether the child has
capacity for the duties they destne him for or not.
1t The people were to select more Representatives
from the mechanical and agricultural ranks, look
ing once in while to the press and the mer.
chants desk, they would better subverse their
interests, than they do now in forming them
selves iuto parties to support this lawyer against
that on mere abstraction, that is lost the mo-
ment The one or the other is mounted ON The
shoulders Of his constituents when self promotion
and ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, becomes the sole object Fl,
which they strive.-.Nep Era

THE CONSTITUTION

AS heretofore announced, this excellent Demo.
cratic paper, under the editorial management If
Messrs. Harris & Heart, made its appearance in
Baltimore on Tuesday last. This does not seem
to corroborate the fact that our old friend Harris
had received an appointment as Charge d'Affaires
to some Government in South America. Tn their
first paper they have been obliged to correct some
OF the stupid reports put in circulation regarding
their intentions, as follows:-
ERRORS Commemorative are informed
that reports are in circulation. connecting our ma
per with the pretensons Of one of our most prom.
inent statesmen for the next Presidency. We
expect to live out and live down these idle and
unfounded rumors, but we must be permitted tn
say they are unknd and ungenerous as thew are
unfounded. Nothing in the past course of our
paper gives color of foundation for them. and
the future, we trust, will be permitted to speak
for itself. We wish to be understood explicitly
and emphatically. that in regard to the next can
ddate for the Presidency, we are uncommitted
and untrammeed. We are the advocates of M
particular individual for that high Office We
are the advocates of rincpes-measures-of
that course of policy which the reason and the
Judgment of the Democratic party, enlip hteped
ana Instructed by experience, have pointed out az
the safest and best for the country We leave
the party themselves, whose duty it ia. to call
forth at the proper time such eminent citizen as
they may deem worthy, in order to cotlie him
with the power, and The honor and the responsi .
blllty of administering the affairs of our great re-
public This is their peculiar business, and we
shall wait for their lead. When they have made
their selection, we shall be ready to aid their
purposes with all the ability and influence we
possess"
