The Police ESTIMATES. According to
recent act of the Legislature, the three
Metropolitan Police Commissioners, the
Mayor of Memphis and the Judge Of the
Co unity Court we're appointed Board OF
Estimates, to agree on the sum necessary
fol the support CT the police. Mayor
Iceland does not agree with the rest OF
the Board, who have estimated the expen-
SEES for the year endilg June 3Oth, 1867,
at $4,000 in excess Of the fines and
forfeiturcs. The matter has been referred
to the Finance Committee of the City
Council. The Mayor sent the following
message to the Board of Aldermen on
the subject: by late act of the Legis-
lature, the Mayor of this city was made
a member OF the Board of Assessment
to fix the cost ofthe Metropolitan Police,
and levy tax upon the property of the
city for it's support the incoming year.
Knowing it to be a matter of great i'm
portance to the welfare of the city that
the utmost harmony should prevail on
this subject, l had hoped that the Board
of Assessment would agree upon the
amount of money requisite for the pay
of the police force; but / regret to soy
We could not agree, the other members Of
the Board insisting upon sum much
larger, in my opinion, than is
necessary, and much larger than the
number of our population and the amouat
of our revenue will justify. My objec-
tons will be more clearly seen by con-
trasting the principal items in this con-
nection with those of other cities, to- wit:
The city of St. Louis has population
of 100000, revenue of 81 100000 ard
q police force of 2l8 men, costing $685.
0Oe; Chicago has a population of 200.
600, a revenue of 81 100000 and police
force of 200 men, costing $240, 900; Gin
cinnati has q population of 100000,
revenue of $2,7s2, 900 and pays her police
department $4,000. Now, we are asked
to pay for the maintenance of our Police
Department $4,000, while eur popula-
ton does not exceed $1,000, and our
revenue last year was only 100000, and
will not exceed 500, 900 this year. The
differences between this and other
Southern cities are perhaps equally
striking, but my information in
that direction is not SO recent.
With these examples Of the practical
experience of older and equally impor-
tant cities, cannot agree to tax our cit
liens to the amount asked for, for police
purposes, but recommend, in obedience
TO legislative enactment, that one hun
bred thousand dollars be appropriated
for it. While this amount will not sup
port as large force as the Commits
sioners desire, yet it rs believed to be
sufficient for as large force as our citi-
zens are able or willing to pay. l will
add that the Police Commissioners have
manifested at all times desire to CO.
operate with and serve the city govern
ment, and that the force under their con-
troll is efficient and well managed. ]
hope, therefore, that some agreement be-
tween them and you will be accom-.
plished, agreeable to both parties, and
approved by our citizens.

neither can the other. If man can say
will vote, not because the organic Is
gives me the right to do so, but becauset ,
right is natural and inherent, he may wi
equal propriety say how, when and wht }
he will vote, because. naturally, he has )
much right to do the one as the other.
Again, if suffrage is a matter which ca :
not be limited by legislation, neither C; |
its effects be limited; that is to say, IL
voting is an Inherent right, the time ar
given official shall occupy his position \
in immediate abeyance TO that right, and )
not a proper subject of legislation. TheI =
fore, according to this,latter day theory, j. /,
man is entitled to an office after any pc :
ton of his constituents have become di :
satisfied with him. Occupying his positi' l
only by virtue of the natural right of 5
constituents so to place him, of course q
is bound to respect the tenure upon whi |
he holds his Office, and quietly yield t ,
same upon request. Thus, the same m l
who, two years ago, were shouting trait r
and rebel, at Democrats, now justify t
assassination of LINCoLN-make Boo [
the martyr and his victim a tyrant. =
Why? Because LINcoLN was abridgi' :
the natural right of BOOTH to say who Is
rulers should be.
But if the elective franchise is natuI |
right. and one that society, in its polite |
forms, cannot restrict, why is it that :.
those statutes regulating the naturalizati l
of foreigners are not repealed? Why is 1t
that women are denied the privilege of vt j.
ing? Does difference of sex create diff :
ent natural rights? Why is it that crirs :
inals are decitizenized? Why say that q
man must be above the age of twenty-o "a
years before he can become an elector?
The position is false and untenable.
