EDIT0Hs APFEAL. OF all the trite sayings
which have found their way into the great
ocean Of literature during the past century,
perhaps no one has been more frequently slain
or has more perinaciouslE risen from Is esre-
msnts, "with twenty mortal murders on its
crown than he declaration which serves a.
the caption 10 this article.
{" A mixture OF a lie" SAYS Bacon, In one Of
his essays, q doth often add pleasure, " bat it
is very fair to doubt whether an unqualified
fslsehood ever did "aad pleasure" to, OF
benefit mankind. We have had our attention
called to this subject sfresh BY a well written
article in the M1rning Buliefia, of-sunday last
Taking this maxim for a text, which be says
has been discovered By some explorer in the
wilderness Of human nature, the writer goes
on to deliver a very pretty bomily upon the
fsuiblH.y Of human nature, from which be
seems 70 deduce the Astounding proposition
that an men ana an women are objects Of mer-
chaHdiss, differing only in the price at which
they estimate themselves. It is not my pur-
pose to controvert this proposition although
it seems oily a gsntesi way Of asserting that
there is neither honor IN man nor virtue in
woman-but rather 70 tasr down the founda-
ton upon which be has reared such a comely
superstruet1re. Il Is very much the fashion
Of the day 10 anathamatize human nature /;
and many who would not dare openly assert
that every mans honor and every womau's
virtue could be bought for a price, would not
hesitate to make the assertion, shielded behind
some tute maxim OF venerable proverb.
Il is not within M powsr 70 say that no
man ever did utter the libel on humanity which
I have quoted, but it is certain that Horace
Walpole on one occasion, when speaking OF
his corrups political opponents, did say, can
these men have their pricer-a truth as IN
questionable As bis alleged maxim was false
and this assertion, garblsd % suit a corrupt
taste, has been iterated and reiterated, not
w~ithstznding rs frequsntr efutation, ever since.
III not my purpose 10 reflect upon the no
tives Of he article 70 which I have alluded
for its author is but one Of a thousand who
have preached from the same Pnlpit-but if I
err in surprising the maxim which be has laid
down to Be ,hr rarbled words Of Horace Wal
pole, be would confer a SAVIOR upon The Writer.
AMI a large number Of seekers after truth, if
be would tell US who was the author Of the
execrsbls saying that CAN men have their
price, and what were the Circumstances IN
der which he whose saPisnt satire would not
even spare ifs author, made this wholesale al
legation. OLLAPOD.

EDrroRs APPEAL: Visiting Jackson,
Tenn, a few weeks ago, I had the ~inapprrei-
able pleasure Of hearing for the first time the
distinguished clerical orator whose name
beads this contribution. His subject was taken
from ths gospel Of St Luke-a.fnd Peter fol-
lorsE afar Of" A most pregnant and signih-
cant text and admirably did he eloquent min
lister handle it.
Mr. Tdmble is the pastor Of the Presby-
ter'aB Church otJackson. he is probably the
ablest and most eloquent pulpit orator in Ten
nesses, and doubtless viii yettske rank among
the ablest and most distinguished Of his time
and country. He breaches SIMMONS, not dis
courses Or dispositions. He talks to the heart
as well as 20 the head; and I doubt il there
was a man, woman or even child, in that large
audience, who did not feel the conscience
griPped, the heart warmed, and the spirit sub
dued, b. his trenchsnt yet sGectionate utter
snces. ln a word, Mr.. Trimbie is ny bean
ideal Of what a preacher ought to Be. He sticks
to his text, and sends his winged expostula-
tons home with great power to the bosoms OF
an classes and conditions Of men. He wants
to do y0u good, not to make himself a name.
be is a faithful laborer in the Masters vine
yard, and looks alone 10 God for his reward.
n my opinion he lie one o. the few c~lsrgvmsn.
who, so far at leas. as palpit ministrations 20,
fully undsrstsnd he sacred mission they have
undertaken to fslfT. Understanding this, and
blessed a. be is with a genius for eloquence, az
rare as & il glorious and powerful, I hazard
nothing 10 saying that a preacher has again
appeared among us, whose usefulness in the
future wll be bounded only By bis physical
endurance. Everybody, hat can, isiH 90 to
hear such a nan, and everybody wh7 does 20
20 bear him must cone away benefited and With

did you not ask il when Alderman PERKINS
presented the Main street petition, and
offered his resolution to have the rail-
road located elsewhere than in Main
street, II the road was good for Main
street then, it is good now and Why have you
g reeeded?" If it is a bad Thing for Main
street, why did you place it there in the first
/ instance? Before Tie acceptance OF the oids'
! council might have avoided "fcreing the road
on a street opposed to Il. . but after that accept
anee other interests exIst-another party bad
/ ripbts. and council was nos in the condition It
bs8 besu before. Council rushed forward, in
he eloquent language we have quoted form
one Of is own membsrs, "liks the vampire ;
IT sought the life-blooa Of the applicants, and
Ike a Young bird it opened a wide bin FOR q

ference whether those applicants, OF Main
street, were satisfied, or both. Main streets
turn cane first; now, in a reckless attempt to
escape from he consequence Of enc blunaer
BY he Preparation OF another, tue railway
company are made the holocaust, AID the rePu-
tation Of the city is ieopardiscd.
The correspondence OF the Mayor. and the
success Of street railways in other cities, are a
proof that those railways, like the largar ones
we have become accustomed to, are excellent
things and that as one builds up the business
Of a city It passes through, SO does the other
that Of a street. II Second street was filed
with stores as Main street Is, and the cars put
down sVe hundred people a day in Main street
and not one in Second street, Main would be a
better business street than Second, because the
additional number OF people put down in it
woulc make an additional number OF custom
ers. Main street is not the only interested
party in this -mstter-persons Of moderate in
come want the opportunity the street railroad
affords Of living in the suburbs, where rents
are lower than in the heart Of the city. When
these citizens families zone up town, they
want setting down where The retail stores aTfS
not taken TO Front Row to wade a square
through mud. picking their way among The
barrels and boxes Of the wholesale stores. The
interests OF those at The ends. as well as at
the centre Of the line, must Be consulted. TIE
residents have right to a respectful hearing,
and a calm consideration Of their petitions and
Re ronst-ances, but we DO not believe that the
people Of Main street wish plighted faith to
ae broken, nor the honor Of our city tsrnished
bv violated engagements and naked rePndia-
ton
We add, in j~astiee to members Of council,
that there were wise and j~udicious measures
proposed and advocated BY individuals among
them. Several members desired that nothing
should be done without the consent Of the
company and the payment Of a inst eompensa-
ton when necessary. We hope that calm re-
Election, and q stern resolution 70 act justly
viii bring this business to an honorable and
righteous coBrlusion.

Every dav produces some new evidence
from Charleston hat the landlords Of theh0teis

travagant prices for quarters during the ses-
sion Of the Democratic national couVenthcn.

quarters, stating that be could have a room
provided be would agree 70 the suoTmous price
Of ten or twelve dollars FOR il from the 18th Of
