Social 0stracism.

In speech delivered before a meeting
of the citizens Of Carroll county, Mary
land, on the 18th instant, Senater Nye,
Of Nevada, said
Zone Of them a Southern citizen was
a wooing me as sweet as sucking dove
the other day Great laughter l had
known him before his hands were wet
with loyal blood. He held out his hand TO
me. Says Don't you put your palm
in minel Laughter. My palm shall
never cross hands with man that know
has spilled loyal blood in its defense Of
the country"
Much Of the testimony taken before
the Reconstruction Committee has been
intended to prove that the people of the
South have not treated Federal officers
among them with as much social consid-
Grafton as they would have received in
the North--that Southern ladies have not
been able 20 forget so entirely their past
sufferings and privations as to receive
cordially those whom they even yet re-
gard as the authors of their woes--that
every drawing-room in these States has
not been thrown open to strangers wear
ing the uniform of the army and the
badge of rank; and from this the Radical
leaders argue-the Southern people can
not be loyal TO the Government until they
love us who hate them and despitefully
use them; they do not love us; therefore
they are not loyal and must not be
trusted. Selma Times

Special Dispatch to the Missouri Democrat
KNOXVILLE, TENN, May 3.-The con-
vention is perfect success, twenty-five
counties are represented The delega-
tons are composed of the most infuen-
tial men from all the counties, and great
nnanilnity prevails here. Hon. j. G.
McGoughey, Of Greenville, temporary
Chairman, made an able speech in favor
of the formation of a State. Colonel
N. A. Patterson, Judge of the Supreme
Court of the State, permanent Secretary
Chancellor S. r. Rodgers, permanent
Chairman Mr.. Rodgers was chairman
of the convention at Nashville which re-
modelled the State Constitution abolish
ing slavery Afterwards the Speaker of
the State Senate made lengthy and
able speech in advocacy of the new
State. He said that his desire was that
the proceeding be devoid Of all partizan-
ship. There seemed, however, to be a
purpose to introduce party. While dep
recating this, he would inform those so
disposed that the loyalists threatening
the movement would meet this as the
rebellion in 1861. 9Wog8 mr
N. A. Patterson, a prominent lawyer,
thorough Unionist and an old johnson
Democrat, made an elaborate speech,
which was greatly applauded He de-
nounced the rebels and their sympathi

Next followed Hon. Thomas r. Nelson
in one of the greatest speeches ever de-
livered in TENNESSEE speech replete
with historical knowledge, statistical
facts, classical illusions and logical de-
ductions, sufficient to convince the most
skeptical of the propriety and expedi-
ency of the proposed movement. Mr..
Nelson's speech was most patriotic, de-
claring that treason and rebellion should
be punished. Mr. Nelson's speech Gre
ated the widest enthusiasm
But one member of the convention
spoke against the formation of a new
State The county convention which
appointed him delegate instructed him
to vote for it, and he was urged to this
course by man who served in the rebel
lion, and Copperhead But two men
voted with him against the movement
After the memorial was received the
adjourned to meet tomorrow
and vote on the memorial. 1t will be |
adopted with scarcely dissenting voice.
Every person is for the formation Of
new State exceptrebels and Copperheads.
They oppose it in the hope that East |
Tennessee will pass under rebel dominion
at the next election.
A letter received from A. H., JOHN,

Special TO the Missouri Democrat.
NASHVILLE, May Ain the Senate to-
day bill to prevent persons who parti-
cipated in the rebellion from holding
Office, was taken up and discussed for
some time. 1000.
The Metropolitan Police bill came up
on its third reading and was referred to
a select committee 1t places the power
over the municipality of Memphis in the
hands Of commissioners appointed by
the Governor. The select committee
will report it back with amendments,
bringing Nashville under its provisions,
and recommend its passage. Recent
events have rendered this bill very i'm
portant
Three Senators, Carrigan, Mcfarland
and Frazier. of Knox, presented pro-
tests against the franchise bill which
passed yesterday. Those of Mcfarland
and Frazer were laid over, but Corrigans
contained such extraordinary language
that it was referred to special committee.
He closed il by saying he would con-
slider himself under no legal obligations
to obey the law until it was pronounced
constitutional by the Courts, and that
although he would not advise his people
to offend against law and order, he would
warn them against usurpation.

Flutter In Mobile.

Quite a hutter has been created in
Mobile in consequence of an order re-
ceived during the past week from WASH
ington for the arrest of . prominent Off
cial in the Treasury Agents Department
of that city. The books and papers
under his care have been seized upon,
and it is thought that several other
prominent individuals will have to es-
cape to avoid arrest, The, main party
designated by the order happens to be
out of the city. 1t is said that frauds on
the Government, amounting to one mil
lion dollars have been committed at that
place. No names are as yet divulged.

Fabis that Is Applicable.

There is a fable somewhere on record
which represents that flock OF sheep
we're guarded by faithful and watchinl
dogs, and the wolves were not permitted
TO trouble them. The wolves were much
hurt at this state Of affairs, and remonstra-
ted against having such ravenous animals
as guardians Of the flock They argued
that If il was not for the dogs, the sheep
and the wolves could associate IN the
most friendly manner, aud at last so
wrought upon the minds Of she hock,
that they agreed that their guardians
should have their teeth extracted so
that they might not, in 81 OF rage,

OUR RIoTs-MILITARY VIEW.

Our riots last week were n God-send t
Radicalism everywhere. It was sadly il
want Of something out of which to man
ufacture new supply of capital The
old stock was getting low. and gave indi
cations, like the price Of goods and the
rate of rents in Memphis, of running
down. Happily for them, the South
Memphis affair occurred. In the face OF
all that can be said or proved to the
contrary, Radicalsm will have it that the
riot had Its origin in rebel dissatisfaction
with the condition Of things, and rebel
disposition to murder the negroes. The
Franchise bill the Tennessee Radicals
have got through Another measure
claimed their attention. metropolitan
police law The riots came in good time
to insure the passage of that. o, yes, it
will go through like knife, and turn and
cut Mayor PARKS government into
shreds. Some one living or sojourning
in Nashville thus dispatches to the St
Louis Democrat
Every report that comes from Memphis
renders it more certain that the entire
riot was hellish outrage upon the
blacks, numbers of whom were murdered
without provocation, and only to crafty
the barbarous passions engendered by
slavery and treason. At first it was
thought the blacks were guilty of COM
mencing the disturbance, but even that |
is successfully disputed, and the whole |
thing appears to have originated from an |
assault by the police upon some dis
charged colored soldiers, who, although |
making noise, we're neither iDjuring |
nor molesting anybody Such | find is |
the view taken by all military authorities
here, and is no doubt correct
If we we're now discussing the origin
Of that unfortunate affair, we might take
this statement as evidence that the dis
charged negro soldiers commenced it.
The question is Did the city police have
authority to suppress disorderly conduct
on the part of these negroes2 If so, the
negroes had no right to resist But here
is something else The same dispatch
from which we have qaoted contains the
following, which we submit to the public
without any comment at present;
Gen. BEE p. RUYKLE, Bureau Com
missioner at Memphis, writes letter TO
Gen. c. B. FISK, detailing the riot of the
Sd, and closing with these words: " Per
init me, General, to urge upon you to
use your utmost influence to procure the
passage Of metropolitan police bill for
this city. Until this or something else is
done, no man with loyal blood in his
veins or with black skin is safe. Some
thing must be done at once in this city"
