"In regard TO the Senatorship, the gener-
al conclusion seems TO he that Mr.. Stephens
will be elected for the long term, as it is
known that he permits his name TO be used.
There is less unanimity of opinion as TO the
short term. Neither Ex-Governor Brown
nor Ex-Governor johnson will be a candi-
date.
Judge Warner is here and will be run for
the vacancy in the Supreme court, OCCASION
oi hy the election Of Judge jenkins as
Governor. 1t is altogether probable that
Judge Warner will have no opponent.
A prominent Representative who had OPP
posed the establishment of the Supreme
Court, remarked in my hearing that he
would lee well satisfied to have the Court as
originally constituted with Messrs. Lump
Kin, Warner and Nisbett for Judges. Ii is
not known that Judge Nisbctt would accept.

The Journal and the Dispatch have been

FRIDAY, Dec. 9.
MoSETARY.-Gold seemed rather feverish and
unsettled in New York yesterday, opening at
1861 and at noon was 1is. Here the transactions
are very limited and we heard Of only small lots
changing hands. Brokers paid 1i61z and held at
1914.
The Bank Of Tennessee has somewhat improved !:
The buying rate yesterday was 1902 with consid-
cradle amounts offering. 1t was generally held
by Brokers at 45.
Union Bank continues in demand at So cents
and is very scarce. Round lots would readily
command 60 cents.
Planters Bank is dul at 55a56. We heard Of
Broker selling 5000 at 81, though IS is the sell
ling rate.
Southern money is as heretofore. The inferior
Banks are rather weak at the quotations an3 are
almost unsalcable, while the better Banks are
firm at the advertised rates.
CoTroS-Business in this line is still without
animation, with farther decline. 354 bales were
reported to us by the merchants as having been
received on yesterday; against 376 SHIPPED and l05
sold, at figures ranging from l,37 to l,4l, accord
ing to grade. We find n variety Of opinion
among merchants as to future prospect Of Cotton.
some confident Of a heavy advance, while others
predict still further decline.

elaboration and iorethought. In fact every
measure which has been offered is more or
less detective, To protect the freedmen and
