Of causes which could make him oandi-
date for an Office so far above his ca
pacily. He was then Major General
Of the United States army, secure Of his
place for life. And, therefore, he had
no sufficient motive at the time 10 re-
strain his natural and heartless cruelty
He acted out his nature. The question
ia nov raised whether 1.-The jews as a
class. shall forgive him. They answer
they will forgive the man, but not the
wolf. They will be as charitable as 'ney
ought But they will give no quarter 70
the slayer Of women and children ihey
will not place in Office the man who, when
he wanted no Office, and had no idea Of
ever after needing their votes, showed the
cloyen foot, and made himself known as
the enemy of their race. This is no I'm
proper revenge, no evidence OF malig'
nifty. but Of wisdom and judgment. NO
man that knows a Haynau or Cal'gula
will choose him for ruler. And ne u
no monster who puts the avenger on the
track of the enemy of his children
Grant has been caught in the act. when
he committed it he was too small a man
TO have any great future possible to be
discerned even by a sagacity for superior
20 b;s own. And now that he has risen
10 the highest rank as q general, mere by
unfair practices to other generals 'han oy
merit of his own, and has been nominated
for the Presidency on the mistaken suppo'
sition that he was dear to his soldiers LOT
M better reason than thathe commanded
them. and now that he is known as o ~
rant by one atrocious act Of cruelty ne
must take the consequences. 1t is not a
question of charity or revenge justice
requires that the Jewish people should
aveppe, in order to prevent, the oppres-
s;on of their race. They have long been
downtroddeu ameng the nations OF the
earth But in the name of the PROSTATE,
but yet to be redeemed Southern people,

Call 10 Tax.Payers.

A call on all persons interested to
meet together and consult in relation to
the illegal street-paving tax and the tax
on professional men is made in our local
columns for Tuesday next, the 2lst INST
This is matter of great Importance to
tax payers. We have heretofore at
great length expressed our views
on this subject. The lax is in
iauitous, and such as no capitalists will
endure. No man will hold real estate on
such terms, and capital will be driven
from the city. Think Of the tax being in
some instances thirty three and one-third
per cent. the value of the property, while
in others it is only five per cent. think OF
a tax confined exclusively to one class
of property holders, when the constltu
ton requires general tax or none, and
that II is without valuation being made,
and By the front foot, in defiance OF the
constitutional requirement that property
shall first be valued in order to
be taxed There is not re-
spectacle lawyer in Memphis who will
say such thing is legally possible. We
would not give ten cents for the title the
city tax collector can give to the best i'm
proved lot in the city, sold for thai pave
ment tax. We are willing the city should
be paved, and we are willing to pay for it,
equally and fairly according to the taxa
BILE property of each taxpayer. But
such tai as that we would resist, II ne
cessary, by twenty years lawsuit
Not only will purchaser at such
a tax sale get no title, but we are salts
fied the defects of management have been
so great as to defeat all titles obtained at
any other tax sale of the city Let our
taxes be equal and right, and they will

bloody man uesiEns
:. The Southern men look with distrust
to the military and to those connected
with the Bureau, but men from the
North with average civility and good
sense are cordially received among
them."-Rep DR.. Sears.
Very true, Doctor. There is no pre-
iudice against immigrants and capital
lists from the North who come down
here to dwell or invest money in prop
erty or enterprises of any kind. They
have been and will be cordially received
There is, however, here deep.seated
detestation of carpet.baggers and squat
ting interlopers from the North, who
have come here with the purposes and
cunning of burglars end thieves to worm
themselves into olGee and pirate upon
the revenues paid Dy people who abhor
them. Men whose day and night work
is to poison the minds Of the freedmen
toward those amongst whom they were
born and raised, and who alone can
give them employment and support.
These mischievous adventurers, who
do these things, and who hesitate not to
take the places of our own worthy citi-
zens and turn them and their families
adrift to seek the means of living under
every circumstance of hardship and
want-they are, indeed, execrated, And
when peace finally comes, and Virgin
ians once more get control of their own
affairs, these men will find any part of
this earth more agreeable to them than
Virginia.
And this is all proper. 1t would be a
perversion of the principles upon which
society resist would be monstrous
inversion of the public sense that would
countenance cupidity, impudence, and
depravity, and lose all Gyppathy for the
wronged and outraged that would fra
ternize with these unprincipled intruders,
who, under the disguise of Loyalty"
presume now, as matter Of right, to
domineer over the people of Virginia and
eat out their substance on the ground
that they are "rebels." These gentry
and their conduct will not BE- forgotten,
and they know it. -Richmond Dispatch.

OF the diabolical intentions OF the
Tennessee dictator the New York En-
press speaks as follows:
Today July 81 Governor brownicw,
Of Tennessee, will issue proclamation
calling an extra session Of the Legisla'
ture 10 meet on the 9th OF July. Inc
ostensible objec, is to make provision Tor
the financial emergencies OF the ota.e }
the real object is the arming and equip,
ming of the militia, which is to be placed
in the field next month, to suppress
what the old blasphemer terms the law
lessness' of West Tennessee but what
in reality is the Democratic sentiment Of
that part of the unfortunate monarchy
first subject to the practical operations
of Radical reconstruction. we have
read time and again, in respectable jour
mails published in Tennessee, that
Browniow has habitually held it 70 be his
duty to exterminate oil men in that state
who do not support his views and those
of the Rump Congress, and it would seem
from this move regarding the militia that
he intends to carry out his murderous
designs The Nashville papers, which
knew several days ago Of his determine
ton TO arm his militia, and send them
out TO butcher Democrats, have pretty
plainly intimated that the citizens against
whom his ire is unjustly and despot-
ically directed, will not quietly sub
init to moslestation and oppression,
and we may therefore soon be in daily
expectation of hearing bad news from
that quarter. Brownlow, by this mad
course he has resolved upon, will not
only crafty his own demoniacal hatred
and revengeful spirit, and perhaps giut
his rapacious taste for the blood Of white
but he will be carrying, in
his way, and the Radical way, the State
for Grant and Colfax. a merciful Prov
idence, let us hope, will interpose some
obstacle in the way of the success of this
hloodv mans designs.
