The southern Lsral Unionists.

A few renegsdes who claim the
above title have issued call for a
Southern Union Convention to be held
at Philadelphia in September. They
assert that under the doctrine of State
sovereignty with rebels in the fore
ground controlling Legislatures and
embittered by disappointment in their
schemes to destroy the Union there
will be no safety for the loyal ele-
ment of the South.
They rely on Congress and the
Radicals for protection and wish dele
gates sent in goodly numbers from all
the Southern States to meet at indie
pendence Hall in the city of Philadel-
phia, on the first Monday in Septem-
Der next. They propose to meet at
that time to recommend measures for
the establishment of such Governments
in the South as accord with and pro-
tect the rights of all citizens,
The call is signed by Stokes and
Fowler, of Tennessee, Hamilton, OF
Texas, and about twenty others, none
of whom are men of ability or posi-
ton at home, or who can be said IN
any sense to be the representatives OF
Southern sentiment We are glad to
see there is no name from Mississippi
to the call.
This movement is got up by the
Radicals in their alarm at the Conyen-
ton called by Doolittle and others, to
meet in August. 1t will be composed
of the basest and most worthless OF
the Southern population. Men who
are enemies to President johnson and
who stigmatizc as rebels the truest and
most patriotic of their fellow citizens.
AS Southern Convention it will be a
miserable failure. Outside of Tennes-
see there is not a respectable minority
in any Southern State who will give it
the least cOuntenance. The Philadel-
phia Convention of the l4th August
will correctly represent the great ma
jority of the Southern people. The
delegates will be loyal in the true ae-
ceptation of the word.
They are ready to give an honest
and jealous support to the Govern
ment, to recognize in its fullest extent
the freedom of the negro, and his
right undisturbed to the enjoyment
of life liberty and property" But
the new test of loyalty is to support the
Constitutional amendments, proposed
to dishonor and degrade us by hostile
Congress in which we were denied
representation. Tried by this test we
are, and expect to be, dislOydl. When
ever the voice of the people can be
heard, when it is not stifled by the
bayonet, it will protest in terms of in
dignation at such oppression, and
prefer to forego representation than
obtain it at such a sacrifice.

mempnAss Kenns
To my friends in the South, and especially
all scho suffer from any form of Chronic
Disease:
II will be seen by the above card, that have
associated with me in practice, DIR. g. W.
Payne of Mississippi, gentleman OF high
standing and of known reputation in the
Medical Profession.
Although solicited and urged to visit, pro-
fesssnAlly, other cities. as also various cele-
brated springs, to meet and treat inyalids du-
ring the present summer find it impossible
to do so without causing great disappointment
to many who are coming from great distances,
daily arriving, for the purpose OF consultation
and treatment, many OF whom, are sent Oy
physicians and other friends who know me.
therefore give this notice, thatI Will remain IN
Memphis during the present summer, and per-
haps until November next. Then VIII return
| and resume practice in New Orleans. There
| fore those who suffer from any form of chronic
disease and desire consultation and treatment,
will do well to apply as early as possible, AS IL
usually requires months of treatment 10 cure,
| and remove from the system the cause where
| the disease is of months, sometimes OF years,
standing.
1 am no stranger to Southern community !;
my professional life has been devoted 10 treat
ment of chronic diseases in our southern cities
and States. For many years past have been
visited by patients from almost every section
of the South, and while l feel grateful to my
many friends who have been liberal in every
possible way, yet Il feel consciousness OF haV-
ing faithfully discharged my duty to all, and
have thus reciproeated by restoring health, and
thus giving years of life and happiness TO many
thousands who might otherwise, to-day, have
still been invalid sufferers, or have been, by
friends, laid in their graves.
have not time, nor inclination, now, to give
an extended notice. 1 write much for the
purpose of giving notice of Ichere zee are as OF
Whist we can do. Patients sometimes tell me
that their 'shome family physician" discour-
sged their coming, without any knowledge OF
facts, but simply because we :" advertise. /"
Such do not know us, and had better visit
themselves and learn some facts before they
try 10 prevent the sufferer, whom they fail to
cure, obtaining relief. Twenty years of extern
siye practice in treating chronic diseases, such
as others have not been able to cure, will sure
ly give some practical knowledge. Ii they
could cure all such cases, there would be none
left to linger and suffer, seek relief at the
hands of others. Such are those whom have
invited for years; such they are that come. !;
and my curing such has called forth volumes
of evidence from the Southern press and South
ern community.

there il some danger of the wearer
strutting himself to death. The
troupe have adopted the old motto !:
'.Iras ct rer5a locamas" To conceal
this is iInpossible-as no man canlong
deceive the world as to his true char
acter, and the world has an old fash
toned way of weighing character with
the neatness of an apothecary.
S AS it seems to be a matter OF
so much concern to the Troupe" over
the way inasmuch as we presumptlous-
ly suggested a State Convention in
advance of them, we greatly regret
that they did not hasten to make the
same call a day or two earlier, when
it would have given us much pleasure
TO have seconded the motion
Our object in noting the endorse
ment'' of the move by the Clarion,
was the same which induced us to
mention the name of other journals
which have done so, in order to show
the sentiments of the press upon the
great question. 1t may have been I'M
necessary to have noticed this exceed
ingly small effort of the Clarion d. Co.,
to impress the public with its own i'm
portance, and we simply allude to it to
show up their style of journalistic
trickery, evincing as it does, very
demoralized condition, in seeking
eagerly to appropriate as an honor or
distinction, that which was never
claimed or dreamed of as such by any
one else.
The people and the press are begin
ming to understand and appreciate the
blarney and humbug which character
ICES the numerous association" over
the way, and the ft-soldering policy
(which Is so distasteful to dignitied
enterprise) that leads them to embrace
''every wind of doctrine" which seems
to belly their sails even for an
hour. AS the matter is of such mo-
ment to the Clarion, we distinctly as
sert that the call for a State Conven-
ton in the Mississippian was the first
that emenated from the Capital, and
so far we know, from any portion of
the State. The call was made subse-
quently to the appreciation of the sug
gestion by some of our most distin-
guished citizens-among them we re
member Judge Handy, Hon. 9. l..
Potter, Judge Yerger, and Hon. Fulton
Anderson.

Personal.
1t was not my purpose to again
trouble the public with the difficulty
between Mr. f. NJ Yerger and myself
But his Card, as published in his paper
of yesterday, would seem to justify "a
few additional remarks"
After my article of Friday morning,
it was presumed by those of my friends
who professed to understand "the
code" that he would, as the only reply
that could be made thereto, either send
me challenge, or initiate hostilities
on the street. He did neither; but,
after / was arrested, and without either
written or verbal notice of his pur-
pose, an irresponsible little boy was
employed to post placard. Upon
being informed that was "being post
ed by Yerger," 1 disregarded the ar
rest, proceeded with a shotgun to the
corner, where supposed, of course,
that would find him standing by and
defending his poster; but he failed to
make his appearance; and, it seems
from his own statement, that he was
concealed in the most efiectual man
ner'-not so much, l apprehend, to
"avoid the officers of the law" as to
evads a conflict which he would have
it believed, he was so anxious to meet
He was informed by his friends that
was proceeding to the corner armed
as stated; he knew that / was there,
and he might have heard me denounce
him as / considered his conduct de-
served. Nor did he leave his hiding
place until / was forced back by my
friends and by the sofficers of the law"
He then, in double quick time, jumped
into Garage in waiting, and went back
of the hill, where he must have known
thatI could not reach him, re arrested
and in actual custody as was / new
ertheless, made ap effort to do so, but
not, however, upon the assurance that
he would pay my bond, for had that
been the only motive which controlled
my action, well knew the value of
his endorsements Furthermore, /
have to say, that no such assurance was
given, and the statement that it was, is
simply false.
In conclusion, / have the pleasure
of knowing that all my friends are sat
isfied with my conduct throughout the
whole affair. To them, and the public
generally, I submit this plain and un-
vanished statement of facts.

ui-on In bis letter tending his resig-

cuccs of opinion between us in regard

eminent depends in a large measure the

As Mr. D appears to be in a very
happy frame of mind on retiring, we
suppose the President and the country
viii sustain the bereavement with equa-
nimity. Judging from the way postal
affairs have been managed in the
South, more worthless, and useless
official than Dennison can scarcely
