Can Grand JurIes be Abolished,

The New York Times, in noticing the late law
passed by the Legislature of Michigan, abolishing
Grand Juries, says;
''But a serious difficulty has been discovered
Grand JurIes not be 50 easily aside as some
people Imagine, for the fifth article of the amend
mens 10 the Constitution of The UnIted States con-
Uains the following provision:
'.NO person shall be held 10 Gnst9er for capital or

actual service IN time Of war or public danger"
"Thts settles The question. We must bear with
Grand Jures while longer"
1t does not settle the question. This Tmes has
given il but superficial examination. The section
cited only apples TO The United States Courts.

says Of this section:

.sEaKs a sheep before the
Dumb.s

AS early as September last, we propoundea to
the Patriot and other organs of its party Che follow
log irtsrrogatOries with reference to the position of
their party.
Are you IN favor Of winding up The Bank Of Ten
nessse and if SO by what process
Are you in favor Of continuing all the Stock and
free Banks in existence aud are you in favor OF
chsrteriug any more banks
These questions have not to this day, been fully
and fairly answered BY the PatSiDt or any other
BODYBUILDING Press. They are still dodging the
issue.
We also asked The Patriot and other Know Moth
ing organs 10 answer the following question.
Are you satisfied with our present sub treasury
system; or do you agree with Mr.. BELL, that j has
proved failure and that 9 United States Bank
should be chartered in its sseadg
The Patriot fatty refused to answer this question
and has failed to do so up to this time. We asked
the Patriot several weeks ago whether it dissented
from the doctrine set forth in the Democratic plat
form. that "SlaSery and the rights of slavehold
in The terIitOries protected by The cOnstu>
tiOn aud by appealt the judicial tribunals of the
sOaniry" We have repeated che question again
and again aud insisted or answer. ''Likea sheep
before the shearer he is dumb" The platform of
the party is silent the subject They are afraid
to assert doetrine which would be c=nsive TO their
northern allies and to Mr.. BEtL. They afraid
to come before The people Of Tennessee with their
principles inscribed upon their banner.
We have also asked the. Patriot to tell Us, how
much the banks will contribute 10 secure an 0ppo-
sition majority ia the next Legislature? We have
/ asked the Patriot whether it regards any man as
true to the South worthy of its support who would
vote 10 exclude State from the Unioa because its
constitution tolerates slavery? we have asked the
Patriots opinions, and those of its party on the Ia
riff, the Paeifs-RsilrOad, Banking and other i'm,
pOrtaut questions now before the country. Still
% like sheep before the shearer, it is dumb"
The people entitled to know the position of the
Opposition all these subjects, and they will not
cOnsentto be led blind-fold into an organization
which is afraid to declare its principles.
Come, neighbor, stand up and "ansBer like a
man"

We'll Said,

Acorrespondent Of the Memphis appeal, referring
to the various speakers who figured in the recent
convention Of the grand army in this city, makes
the following fOrcible ausion to the Opposition
ddate for Congress in this district:
J. NJ. Qusrles, the man who has always believed
he was born to 60 to Congress, and who happened
to change his politics according the lines of his
Congressional district changed, got up to make
a talk. He confined himself principally to the cur
rency question, and he is of the stockholders
of the Bank of America, whose notes are at forty
per cent. discount, we suppose he understands the
question pretty well, and will be able to convince
the people tha; they have lost nothing by getting
only sixty cents for what cost them one hundred
cents, and that the bank was not gamer by such
transaction.
