To the Editors Of the Union and Dispatch
As we must make choice between the
candidates now before US for Mayor Of the
city Of Nashville, and as the election of a
suitable man TO FIJI so important an Office
is a matter Of great concern to all good citi-
zens, it becomes indispensably necessary
that We should determine, as far as possible,
who would be the better calculated to ad-
vance the interests, protect the property and
persons of our people, and promote our
prosperity, Major Alden or Col. Myers. OF
the two we confess our preference strongly
inclnes to Major Alden. He has recently
held an Office, the duties and responsible
ties of which were Of the most weighty,
trying and delicate character and which
he, nevertheless, performed with the most
signal ability and with great honor and
credit TO himself and great satisfaction to
the country. 1t is true that some few have
complained of his administration in that
capacity; yet the great majority accord 10
him the highest praise for the eminently
wise Just, fair and impartial manner in
which he discharged the duties of an
Office, which Is not of a popular
character, and which is most likely to attach
a certain degree Of odium to its incumbent.
He has shown that he is a man of no
ordinary ability, and we doubt not that he
could bring talents of a high order to bear
in comprehension of the wants and interests
of the city of Nashville, aud his fine ex-
ecutive ability would enable him fully to
meet any emergency which might arise in
our municipal affairs during the term Of
his office. He is man of fine address,
of dignifed, courteous and pleasing man
ners. of sound, solid sense, of cool and DELHI
crate Judgment, andiniexible firmness and
resolution, and of good educational attain
ments. He is a man of large experience,
of close observation, and thorough under
standing of human nature. While we ad-
NIT that he has not been with us a great
while, vet his preference for our city in
taking up his abode with us, as matter Of
choice, shows his attachment to our people
and our country. His interests are COM
pletely identical with ours; his sympathies
are with us, and what is our prosperity or
adversely, must of consequence be his. Now
though we are totally disinclined to say
anything in disparagement Of Col. Myers,
vet it does occur TO us that every one must
see at glance that Major Alden is in
everyday better qualified for the Office than
his competitor.
We present this communication to you
because the Press and Times is perfectly
silent on the subject, and because it thus
seems that that paper would be content to
have either of the candidates elected, and
that it has no choice between them.

says
Trade was generally active through the
past week. The business in drygoods con-
tinues to increase and the demand for gene
raj merchandise is also well sustained. The
import entries of the week were heavy in
both lines, and the customs close to three
millions for the week. For the month Of
August the customs receipts in gold into the
New York substreasnry foot up SO, 903, 740,
the largest for any single month since Sep
TENDER, 1866, and So, 100000 ahead of July
of the present year. In the line of export
the movement is moderate in domestic pro-
duce, while the export of specie is only
$4,000 for the week. The foreign e1-
changes are 3(94 below the point at which
it would pay the bankers to ship Ameri-
can gold coin business having been done
for Saturdays steamers at 1093G91094 for
standard bills on London. The present
accumulation Of the precious metals is I'M
precedently large in the great Banks Of
England and France, and very near the
highest point in the United States treasury
say in London SII7, 100000, Paris SlS3,-
100000 and New York 500, 900 600; IN all
four hundred million Of dollars. Money Is
HOP in London and Paris, and 30506
per cet.-according to the anxiety Of lend
ers-in New York, a difference which is
likely to continue the employment of large
foreign balances in this n4rket A rise Of
interest here to 6(37 per cent, which some
financial opinions anticipate, though not
for some weeks to come, would probably
increase this operation, for it seems quite
certain, from the latest cable dispatches,
that whatever hostile feeling may remain
between the great powers of France and
Prussia no war is likely to be seriously
threatened, much less to occur, during the
remainder of the present year, to disturb
the European money markets.
The import entries for the past week
amount to Sc, 362, $50, against the total en-
tries of S5,757, l69 same week last year.
The export clearances of domestic produce
amount to 1894, 242, agaiSst 81, 728, 2l3
same week last year. The customs for the
week are s., 99l, 740. The receipts Of cot

Special Notice.

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room il is generally the custom, as every
one knows, to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people,
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that bensht, which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as il is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums, such as Watches etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens Of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy. we have therefore concluded to
give ten per cent. of our profit to the poor of
Nashville, from the 1st day of april 1867, up to
October LIST, 1867, six mOnths,l which amount
will be RENTED weekly TO the Mayor Of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain II.
