mFmPnEs ENrELLIGENCE.

The g Union-savers, Of Memphis, are SIN
| striving to arrange affairs ia the city to their
| satisfaction. Another meeting was held at the
mayors Office on Saturday evening, in which
the old quseks, headed by the traitors Nsbers
and Grundy, participated. General Sherman
addressed the audience in q Conversations way,
at lsnstb, when Dr. Grundy felt himself IN
spred to ofsr the following;
Resol5sd, That as citizens Of Memphis, and
| loving the Constitution Of the United States,
we respectfully request, thst@General w. i.
Sherman require all persons over the ago OF
tweuty-one in this city, to take the oath OF ale
glance, or leave the city in-days.
General Sherman responsibility informing DR..
G.. that he had no power to enforce such orders,
as be had instructions from higher authority to
issue no such orders. This set the doctor back
a little, and when called upon for q speech, he
gave notice that he would preach the next day
at the Second Presbyterian church.
Msior Sharp made a motion that a committee
Of zen be appointed to correspond with Judge
CatroD, about appointing county officers to col
lees and disbu7se the State and. county taxes.
R Hough, J.. Ordri5ge, in Tomeny, MsjOr
Sharp, L. c.. Nor7ell, BE. C. Brooks G. P.
Ware, DR.. R. c. Grundy, were appointed on the
committee. The committee was requested to
meet at the mayors office on Monday evening,
at eight o'clock.
Dr. Brooks made a statement Of his persecu-
ton during the Confederate Tegin in this city,
and also stated that persons who were wounded
while in the Confederate army in this city, were
now holding lucrative positions under the Fede-
raI government
The reioicings Of the Coafeders;es in the city
on Sunday, after the reception Of the glorious
news from Kentucky, are represented by sever
al gentlemen to have been exceedingly bolster
Gus, Notwithstanding they were surrounded BY
g watchful enemy. GratulatiOns were heard,
and smiling coUntsnances met, on all hands; and
not unfreeuently cheers for JEFF. Davis and the
Confederecy awoke the stiffness Of the Sabbath.
On the other hand the Federal invaders, and
their few voluntary resident lickspittles, were
eonsspondinrly depressed, and made no attempt
to suppress the joy which appeared to be almost
universal
No estimate of the Federal force left in the
city is made higher than three thousand Gen
eral Hurbsrfs division commenced their march
eastward or Friday night, and continued TO
leave during Saturday. His force was estimated
at SIX thousand. Their destination was sup
posed to be Bolivar. Several transports were
sent to Helena to bring up troops. This was
supposed By some that contemplating an evacu-
alton The army Of Curtis was frst to be Temoved;
by others it was thought the movement was to
strengthen the forces in the city. The latter
supposition is most probably correct.
The Union appeal hss been suppressed. The
Brlldin of Sunday morning says The nature
Of the remarks which led TO the suppression Of
the Union appeal, and to the removal from the
city Of its editor, Mr.. Cazauran, who, we are
informed, is gone North, may be judged Of from
the following, which We copy from an editorial
printed fer the number of the paper suppressed:
The government is not the Constitution, there
fore we don't praise the Constitution. The
Constitution says one thing; Washington, Madi-
son, Jefferson said the sans thing when they
presided. But the present government says and
does different and contrary things. Now we
are l0yal to the government, and therefore say
Washington, Madison and Jefferson lied, and
that the President tells the truth and does right,
IN spite Of the Constitution.
Pursuant % the fifth article Of the COnstiEu-
ton, article four Of articles in addition" etc,
make it unconstitutional TO do certain things.
DisloyaI men cry out at the government for do
ing these things. We say the outery is wTong,
because if we look around as, from the banks of
the Potomac 90 those Of the Ohio, we see the do
ing Of these things is q blessing to the country,
ard has indicated the superior wisdom Of the
present administration over that of Washington
or Jefferson. Judging from the evils conferred
on the country by an adherence to the Consttu-
ton in days gone By, and The benefits and great
amount OF glory, military etc, she'd upon the
country by Messrs. Lincoln, Seward, Chase,
Welles and Cameron, reading of the arrest Of
Mahoney and IngeTssl, aud others, we say en-
Enthusiastically, let the past and its promises be
f~orgotteni stick TO the present, let the Consttu-
non 90 what Banks desired the Union 10 do
slide and for The sake of our c0untry's credit,
humanity and peace, speak we ia terms Of ado
ration OF the government so ably saving the
Union from the rebellion at home, and unfolding
our renown abroad
The Bullstia adds that the Office has been
closed. We hope the authorities viii keep the
premises in good order as we confidently expect
to resume Cur old quarters in a short time.
