Referring to its denial of our statement with re-
gard to the profits Of the Planters Bank, the Neos
Of yesterday says:
If there be any quibbng" in the case, the public
will be at no loss to determine by whom it has been
done and if there has been anything done in the
matter unworthy of gentlemen of standing and
position we doubt not the public will rightly de-
t,rmine who did it.
We do not know whether the responsibility rests
with the Editor with those who, las he says) au-
tiorzed his statement but there has been quibbing
in the columns of the Ne,os which we think uh
worthy of gentlemen of standing and position. The
public viii be able to determine whether or not it is
unworthy OF the Editor of the Ne,oS.

THE HARPEEss FEERY CONSPIRACY
ExEENDED INTO TENNESSEE
A CONFEDERATE OF BROWNS ARRESTED Z
MEMPHIS.

A CONFEDERATE OF BROWNS ARRESTED IN
MEMPHIS.
We were informed several weeks ago that Gov.
H,Irs had instituted investigations for the purpose
of bringing to justice certain persons in tins State
suspected Of being engaged in attempt to get up
an nsurrectiono Of the slaves in this State. We have
not felt authorized make the matter public, until
the arrest Of one Of the parties in Memphis has
made further silence unnecessary.
The Memphis AUalsacks Of the 9th, contains the
following account Of the arrest:
Some time since, Gov Harris received letter
from Gov. Wise OF Virginia, in regard TO indi-
vidual named W. K. Palmer, who is suspected of
being a follower and co-conspiratOr of old John
Brown the moving spirit in the late tragic affair at
Harper's Ferry. Gov. Harris thought the matter
of sufficient Importance 10 demand Investigation
and to this end, dispatched this city Col John c.
Bnrch of Chattanooga. He arrived here about the
middle of last week, and Immediately instituted IN
auiries in regard TO the habits and former life Of
Palmer, when resulted in strengthening the sus-
p.cions already entertained as to his completely with
the insurreciOnists. Having become satisfied as TO
1 this fact. Col Burch determined upon his arrest,
which was accordingly effected at the Redford
! House, about twelve oclock Monday night. Palmer
came to ais citv in july last and has remained here
ever s.ce For two three years previous to that
time be has mel he says. within sixteen or seven
teen miles OF thecity and is known by many Of our
! citizens
Palmer it is needless to conceal has fellow-conspi-
r9tors in various parts of the State who are known
1 t. the proper authorities, and measures for the
1 prompt arrest Of whom have already been taken
and it be hoped that with their leader and such
others connected with the late affair as have been
arrested. they will receive speedy justice. We are
1 not at liberty 10 speak of the evidence which will
! be adduced at the examination of Palmer, which
will take place to-day before Esq Horne but we are
satisfied that if all of il shall be admitted he will be
proven guilty. All the testimony in the case we
! promise to lay before our readers soon as the
nature OF the circumstances will admit of our
doing so.
We yesterday visited Palmer in prison. He is a
respectable looking man., apparently about forty
years of age five feet eight riches high, stoop
shouliered. and speaks in a hesitatiug manner. He

COLTON'S GENERAL ATLAS.

Mr.. B. II. Lyon, agent for the sale
of this valuable work, called to sec
us this week, and solicited a subscrip.
ton. and we subscribed, feeling that
we had already been too long in
need of such a work. He also oh.
tanned the names of several of our
most influential citizens.
This Atlas is undoubtedly the most
complete we have ever seen. 1t con.
tains ITO s ,eets, on which are exhibi.
ted $50 maps, and plans Of every state,
nation, country, kingdom and island
on the globe. The sum of $4,000
has beeu expended, we understand, in
getting it up. In addition to the
maps, it contains a detailed d:scrip-
ton Of all countries, with seographi.
cal and statistical information in re.
gard to each, thus combining in n
volume the Atlas and Gazetteer. J.
II. Cotton is said to be unquestionably
the most reliable map.msMer in this
country, and in this effort he has sue.
ceeded wonderfully, and we hope his
labors will be rewarded by a trcmen-
dous sale Of a work that is indispen.
sable to every man who has q family
to educate, who reads II newspaper, or
desires to keep pace with the times.
The New York Day Book, IA good
paper well known to many of our cit
izens) speaks in very high oulosy of
this Atlas. So does the New Orleans
Delta, the Charleston 6. c. Courier.
New Orleans Picayune, Louisville
Journal, Mobile News, Boston At
las, and many other leading Journals
we might name, besides the most ems
inent divines, professors, and public
men of the country. Such a work

THE HOLIDAY COMING.

Turn in what direction We may We
see evidences Of the approaching hol-
idays. The children appear to live in
anticipation of it. and the old folks
walk with more elastic step, and seem
suddenly to have begotten a renewed
intcres, in toys, cakes and candies,
with which to fill the stockings that
will be hung up christmas eve, and
next morning old Santa Claus gets all
the credit. Innocent, happy deIusion
this to play upon the children, and
even now u own remembrance Of
such kind acts from Santa Claus be-
gets in our heart a happiness which
serves as a balm to disappointments
and troubles of later Iife-of child
hood flown.
Yes, christmas is coming, and how
often do the little fellows ask if next
Sunday is the day, and grow almost
unhappy to think even a week must
pass before it will come. Through
the thronged street and by the domes.
tic Preside we sec u~nmis,akablc evi.
dences of Christmas and New Years.
The little girls must stop and gaze at
the dolls and tiny red shoes, while
their Liliputian friends Of the other
sex are anxious to know who has the
most fire. crackers, and tricks in gem
eral, and if Jourdnn has more than
Stewart. how fast and joyiully does
the news fly. The wife too looks at
the costly furs, and the bright eyed
girl at the handsomely bound annnu-
ais, one of which she afterwards rec
ognizes perhaps in the present from
her lover.
Hurrah for Santa Claus! The heart
grows warmer in remembrance of the
past, and visions Of bygone years
come gathering from the vista of for
gotten time, to tell us over again the
history Of our youth. We like these
holidays, and hope that in our memo
ry they may grow grcener with every
annual return. We like them because
the whole world then appears to be
made of kindness, and every breast
outpours itself in deeds of goodness
to another. They seem TO think then
that it is more blessed to give than to
receive, and the happy face and beam.
ing eye and kindly smile, all 60 hand
in hand to make up the sum of goodIy
greeting that we can only regret
comes but once a year" We like
them because they come to us laden
with fond memories Of friends now
absent but not forgotten, who, for our
sake would count I'll things else IS
nought.
Let US enter into the spirit Of tie
coming holidays with a zest that shall
frighten panics, p~ressures, and all
those careworn and attendant sprites
away. Let us prepare to enjoy our
selves. and begin the world anew, re.
solved that the time.worn ledger of
care shall for the time be closed. and
that with the now year we will be
ready to renew our labors. refreshed
in body and in mind for the manifold
Of the world.
