Bishop Dunpanloup has the reputation OF

Roman Catholic Bishops now living and,
If elected Pope, would probably soon
make his mark as one of the greatest
Popes Of modern times; but it is very
doubtful whether the French or any
other secular government viii be able to
exercise decisive influence at the next

learned to emancipate itself at the cleo

A letter from Fort Gibson tells of the
ravages Of the cholera there "a follows
"In one instance an entire family Of ten
persons died within the short space of
forty eight hours from the time the first
one was taken sick. These Creeks have be-
come greatly demoralized through fear,
and the moment any member of house
hold is attacked by cholera, the kinsfolk
seek their own safety by precipitate fight
and leave the sick one to meet the uncers
tain issue single handed and as best he
may. Thus, in several instances where
death has interviewed, the body has re-
NAMED without burial for many days, and
on one occasion the bodies Of two children
who had died after desertion, were eaten
up or torn into pieces by partially wild
hogs, which are abundant in all this region
Of country"

IMPARTIAL suffrage" manhood suf-
frage," equal rights" equality before
the law"-these are the gingerly and
euphuistie!terms in which Northern Radi-
cal leaders speak to the Northern people
of the plain unqualified negro suffrage
that they have imposed on the Southern
States Out upon such cOntemptibly
delicate or dehcateIy contemplate way
of treating the subject Half a dozen
Northern States, in as many years, have
voted negro suffrage down by decided
maiorities. The Northern people don't
want it, and the leaders know it But
they should be forced to have it and the
only pity is that the colored people are
not among them in numbers sufficient
to control their politics. If there is such
heaving and gagging over few negroes,
what would that people do if two-thirds
of the whites were disfranchised and the
negroes were in heavy majorities in each
State. Roll on the ball, Fred. Douglass,

lanatic and patient belonging to the State
Asylum, escaped from his fathers. w. F. Ell
limits residence in this city, where his physician
had given him the privilege of remaining a few
days.
He is about six feet two inches high; rather
ieshy: dark hair, cut short; very pleasant coun-
tenance; Witbal, a fine looking young man
weighs about $50 pounds; has no beard at all ;
q years of age, but does not look to be more
than l9 or 20; carries himself very erect; and
from his manner or conduct, the unsuspecting
would never suppose him insane. He had on,
when he left, black, soft hat; brown or white
linen coat: black pants and no vest His name,
Thomas Elliott is stamped on the collar of his
coat and probably on his drawers. If he were
approached and questioned, it is probable he
would tell his name, etc.
1t is feared that he may have taken his life
probably drowned himself somewhere in the
Cumberland.
Any one apprehending him, or giving any in
formation as to his whereabouts. to bis father,

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYsHTP.


This important Office for the Middle
District of this State has been vacant
since the resignation of Judge Harrison
last spring. 1t will be recollected that
the President appointed E. H. East, Esq,
to the position, and the appointment was
duly confirmed by the Senate The ap
pointee promptly declined, however, and
thereupon the President sent in the name
of Mai. l D. Walker of this city, an ex-
officer of the Federal army and gen
tleman-pronounced by the bar of this
city to be every way competent. For
political reasons, Maj Walker being a
Conservative, objection was made by
Senator Fowler, as we are informed, and
under a rule Of the Senate in Executive
session, the case went over to the next
session of Congress.
Thus the petty partisan spite of the
Radical Senator of Tennessee, who is
supposed to be as liberal and large heart
ed as he is Intellectually great, has de-
prived this people of an officer whose
public services are in constant requisi>
ton. 1t is said that an ancient King
employed a servant to notify him every
morning that he was mortal Mr.. Fowler
should hire one Of the Senatorial pages
to tell him daily that he is a Senator. 1t
is so incredible that he needs to be con-
stantly reminded in order to believe it
himself

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it 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 benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as ii 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

October LIST, 1851 (six mOnths.l which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash

ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it,
