The Military Dsspotim over the
Press of Missouri.

In our picture. some days ago, of the
wrongs and outrsces in Missouri, we
spoke Of the military power and despo
tsm that was exercised over the press of
that State. The abiect servilily of the press
of;he down-trodden State, may be inferred
from the following extract from the
Springfield (Elinoisl Register, when
speaking Of the 81. Louis RtyuLEcaa

not TO admit of mIsappreIension. The

their representatives, just now; but il Al

Poland and France.

The Yankees are COMFORTING them.
selves with the idea that the Polish reyo-
luton brings to an end all chance of in-
terventior by France in American affairs.
While this is the opinion in Yankeeland,
the opposite theory has been started on
our side, that French diplomacy had, in
fact, prepared the Polish and Hungarian
mind torthis revolution, at this particular
time, in order that Russia and Austria
might have v ork nearer home at the mo
ment when tie Emperor might provoke
hostile relations with the Yankee Gov
ernment, in the prosecution Of his Ameri-
can commercial policy, and his politital
views il MtSno VINO knows? Europe
an politics is nh strategy, and this would
not be out OF keeping with such system.

Extortion.

Our country friends are sometimes quite
excited about the prices Of articles they
are necessilated to buy. and speak out
in meetin," on the subject. They. not
unrequently, are thoughtless unjust,
and inconsistent in doing 30. We have
case in point:
A couple of farmers brought here yes-
ierday aud sold u quantity each o' bacon
and -four, selling the former ~ 30 and tue
latter AZ DO cents per 'pnuud Having
effected q sale they proceeded 10 invest a
portion Of the proceeds in corn Judge
of their surprise when informed that c IN
was three dollars per hushel Their in
dignaton at such an exhorb tant demand
knew no bounds, and they declare ed their
conviction that the world had gone mad
and was gong to ruin!
just think OF men asking 40 cents
(sirteen times heoM Price) for -four, and
then becoming indignant because they
had to pay three dollars tonly three times
the old price, for corn Any TURNER who
has to buy corn, opyht to be ertorted vpon,
especially il he had TUNED what he had
into bacon to sell ~ 90 cents per pouGd,
or sells -four at forty cents per pound.

Mr.. Chasu's Glld Trick.

The following is an extract from let
ter of an Intelligent gentlemen, recently
arrived from New York. and whose high
social position gave him every opportuni-
ty to acquire correct information:
"Mr. Chase brought four millions Of
gold from Washington to New York put
them into the hands of proper agents,
sent them to the Exchange. and filled
the room aud the coal hole with them,
until, after three days hammering, gold
had fallen % per cent. A rise is, OF
course expected; but Mr. Chase, find. is,
by good judges. considered the backbone
Of The Federal Cabinet. Men who con.
denim his tricks. false ncss sent to
Europe ETC.. still give him credit ior great
cr-rgy and s,4.born will"

From Gov. Harris.
From the Winchester Bulletin !

TULLAHoMA, Tenn. April 3. 1868.
Ma. EDITOR Ny attention has been
called to the following paragraph in your
issue oil the 2lst ult.
at has been settled that there will be
no election for Governor in Tennessee,
IN August next, If the Federal army con-
tinue to hold the Middle and West sec
tions OF that State. BY virtue of the
Constitution Gov. Harris holds his office
until his successor is elected"
A similar paragraph appeared in the
Memphis Appeal Of the 9th ult.
Allow Inc 10 suggest that it is settled
by the Constitution of Tennessee that
there shall be AN election for Governor,
Senators, and Representatives, on the
first Thursday in August, and there is no
power in or out the State which can
change or annul this constitutional re-.
quirement.
The election should, by all means. and
certainly will be held at the time fixed
by the Constitution. We should, there
tore, at the proper time, take all neces.
saIy preparatory steps.
Forgetting all the differences of opin.
ion upon minor questions of the past, we
should select a good and true man for
each position, in whose support all true
patrioS cordially units.
Ii we will present one, and but one, such
candida'ein each electiredistrictt thvouxils
out the State, Federal bayonets cannot
prevent the el ction of sound Southern
rights men to the position of Governor,
representatives IN Congress and the Gen,
eral Assembly.
The people of that portion of Tennes-
see within the enemy's lines present the
proudest spectacle of heroic firmness in
their patriotic devotion to our cause. We
may confidently rely upon their cordial CO.
operation SO far as they may be permitted
to vote or take part in the election.
But long before August, the river will
have fallen to low water mark. giving us
an open field in which TO meet the enc
my. feel that hazard very little IN ex-
pressing the confident belief that before
election day, we will have crushed or
driven from our State the miserable mer
oenaries and vandals who have so long
plundered and oppressed brave, true
and patriotic people, leaving every por
ton of :he State free and untrammeled,
in the exercise Of the elective franchise
Very respectfully,
