Mrs. Alice Mcmahon, who was charged
with strangling her husband at tene-
ment house up town, Friday night, was
discharged from custody yesterday, the
coroner's jury finding that death ensued
from disease Of the heart.
Allen, the wickedest man, who has been
preparing for reform, has made up his
mind. On Saturday he closed his Water
street dance house and attended the
Howard mission services, devoutly en-
gagiug in prayer, and on last evening
held prayer meeting in his old Water
street den.
Charles Neville and James Malcomb
we're arrested last evening, charged by
Mrs. Sargeant--a lady fifty-eight years
of age-with having assaulted and COM

and lady companion had driven
in hired carriage about the park, two
men thrust themselves into the carriage,
and the driver drove under one of the

Tennessee Legislature.

In the Senate, August 9th, Senate
resolution No. 9 came up, as follows:
Resolred by the Senate, the House
concurring, That a joint select commit
tee, 10 consist of one on the part Of the
Senate and = on the part of the House,
be appointed to wait on His Excelency,
Andrew johnson, President of the United
States, aud present fully before him the
present condition Of affairs in this State,
and urge upon him to take steps to give
protection to the law.abiding citizens Of
the State under the provision of the
Constitution Of the United States.
The Committee on Federal Relations
reported the following resolution in lieu (:
Resolred by the Senate, the House
concurring, That his Excellency, An
drew Johnson, President Of the United
States, be, and is hereby requested to
furnish sufficient number Of United
States troops TO protect the law-abiding
citizens OF this State, and aid in the en-
forcement Of the laws.
But the original resolution, No 9, was
adopted.
In the House, Mr.. Woodland offered a
protest against the militia bill-frst, on
the ground that it was passed without
sufficient opportunity for discussion or Of
amendment, second, on the ground that
il violates article l, section 10 Of the
| United States Constitution, that no State
shall keep troops, etc. and also article l
section "a, of the constitution Of Tenues-
see, which declares standing armies
dangerous to freedom, and requires that
the military shall be subordinate 10 the
civil power; third, that it empowers
martil law, bankrupting expenditure,
individual oppression and thu union Of
the sword and purse Ia one and the same
hands, aud fourth, that there is no neces
siiy for raising any force whatever.
Mr. Williams desired to give his rea-
sons for the vote he was about to give
which was permitted only after strenuous
opposition. He did not desire that citi
zeus should be placed by martial law al
the mercy Of g military commander. he
thought men should be tried fret and
punished afterwards; that the writ o.
hdbeds corpus should be suspended only
when the public safely demands il, etc
He thought the Governor should not b
authorized to draw on the Treasury tC
an unlimited amount when the Cousti
tuition declares that "no money shall b
drawn except in Consequence Of sppro.
priations made By law" BE objected
that when the Constitution provides thai
the taxes shall be equal and
uniform throughout the State" The
Legislature cannot empower the Cover
nor 10 make the assessment and collecl
the whole from any single county Of
counties less than the whole number in
the State. BE regarded the bill ~ a.
open and palpable violation Of Eve dider
enl sections Of the State Constitution.

Mr. KendaIl,s Letter.

Read the letter of Amos Kendall on
our first page. We have seen nothing
more comprehensive or forcible in the
same compass. The name of Kendall
links Us with that Of jackson and the
better days Of the Republic. The letter
speaks as jackson would speak, or Clay,
or Grundy, the language Of truth and
disinterested love Of country. The
strong mind of Kendall has lost none OF
its vigor, even when the physical frame
has sunk under the weight OF seventy
nine years. All the old patriots spoke
the same voice while they lived, and
would do so now. But the spoilsmen
have not heard and neither would they
believe though one should rise from the
dead" Let the people hear and ponder

Iournaiisfis Change.

In consequence of recent professional
engagements as an attorney at law, Gen.
Albert Pike announces his retirement
from the chair editorial. While we hope
this may prove advantageous, as well as
a relief, to himself. we can but express
our regret at the loss of his Invaluable
services in journalism, particularly at
this important crisis in the history
of our country. 1t is unnecessary that
we should repeat our expressions
of esteem for Gen. Pike as man ofgreat
ability and genuine fidelity to the true
principles OF constitutional liberty. For
soundness as well as vigor of intellect
We know not his superior. And we are
pleased to see the intimation, that, though
he retires from editorial control as q
journalist, his voice will not be hushed
altogether. and that be will still give bis
views with reference TO public affairs
His successor, Mr.. j. NJ. Heating, is
we'll known to our citizens as the late
editor Of the Commercial and Argus,
which was discontinued some eighteen
months ago. Mr.. Heating is thoroughly
qualified journalist, and a we'll informed
and fine writer. and the appeal could moi
have fallen into better hands. he knows
thoroughly how to make a first class
nerspaper. Aud in this respect the
public may look for an increased amount
Of intelligence Of passing events, and i'm
provement We wish our new confrerC
a large measure Of success

CHARLESTON, August 3l.-Qn Monday
last the sheriff of Triggs county, Ga, had
occasion, with posse, to arrest several
negroes who had been engaged in the
riot in that county the week previous.
One of the negroes, in attempting to es-
cape, was killed, and the rest
gave themselves up. A great many
others who had not been engaged
in the riot gave themselves up, being
apprehensiye that the whites intended to
kill them. They state that one JEFF.
