Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-06-27

We have been requested by a num-
Der of merchants to call the attention
of the Chamber Of Commerce to the
great need existing for a tobacco in
spectOr of approved ability and accept
able character. The following firms,
now engaged in the tobacco business
in this city, propose to be responsible
for the rent of a warehouse, and are
leading in a movement that should
long since have had attention L.
ACKERNIAN, EDMONDs~ ETTIGREw&
Co, EDMoNDs, TODD q Co., and +. p.
BATES & Co. Mr.. r. A. CLARK, who
for ten years acceptabIy occupied
the position of tobacco inspector in
New Orleans, joins these firms,
and promises them and the city great
benefit from the presence of an intel
ligent inspecting officer. Since the
war but little if any attention has
been paid to Our tobacco interests. 4
trade that in 1861 amounted to 300
hOgsheads of tobacco, has been per-
mitted since that time to remain
in the hands Of the merchants
of GAINESVILLE, sHickman or Pa
ducah, enriching these places and
adding to their importance as ship
ping points. With a tobacco in
spector thorough in his business, and
a warehouse properly located and easy
of access, that trade might be returned
to us, and an impetus be given to the
tobacco business in Memphis, that
would in a short time result in the
establishment of all the trade we
formerly enjoyed with the tobacco
of West Tennessee. We hope
the movement of the gentlemen
above named viii be successful, and
that the Chamber of Commerce will
give the subject Of tobacco inspec-
ton its earliest attention.

the parties should continue the combat
with their knives. In both cases the pis-
tolls were fred off without effect, and the
second act of the drama began. One pair
of combatants fought with great fury, and
in a few minutes both men were on the
ground, one with five wounds and the
other with seven. A fortunate accident
put an end to the second encounter, for
one ofthe knives, coming in contact with
a button or some other hard substance,
was broken in two, and the hOrrid spec
tacle of their friends weltering in blood
seems to nave suggested other thoughts
than hat of continuing the conflict. A
medical man, called to the spot, gave
small hopes of the recovery of the two
wounded men.

CITY AFFATR.S.

Very many persons are anxious to
hurry UP the Mayor to make public
the names and charges involved in
the investigation and prosecution now
pending in relation to corruptiOns on
the part of certain Aldermen. We
learn that able counsel has been re-
tanned, whose advice it is to withhold
all names and charges for the present;
and our knowledge of DR.. LEFTwICH,
based on a pretty intimate acquaint-
ance foryears, warrants the belief that
he will adopt the advice he asks and
pays for, rather than that which is
gratuitous. We are satisfied that the
Mayors plans r well matured, and
that no outside pressure win unneces-
sarily hasten his movements. We
commend his patience, for this is a
matter Of too grave importance, both
to the accused and the accuser, to be
passed over or trivially dealt
with. We often gain much valuable
time by making haste slowly" and
though the mills Of the Gods grind
slowly, they grind exceeding small"
1t is gratifying to the friends of Mayor
LEFTwICH to SET that this contest is
having a more salutary influence on
his health than either seaside or
air.

| The CHINESE IN ARKANSAS
We learn from Gov. r.. NJ. AMBER.
son, of Lower Swan Lake, Arkansas,
that a company called the Arkansas
River immigration Company has
been organized under the general in
corporation act of the State Of Arkan-
sas, with Col. THOMAS c. FLOURNOY
as President, r. NJ. ANDERSON, Capt.
JOHN HALL, BENJAMIN RICHARD
SON, BUCKLEY KTMBALL and Gen.
GARRETT as Directors. At the first
meeting two hundred and thirty bales
of cotton yer subscribed, and a COM
mittee of ten were appointed to can
vass each and every township in the
counties of Jefferson and Arkansas for
further subscriptions.
Gov. ANDERSON informs us thatthe
greatest enthusiasm and unanimity
prevails, and that the thing is to be q
fixed fact, ifmoney will effect it.
The people of Arkansas have set
the ball in motion. VIII the people
of Tennessee, Mississippi and Ala
bama be backward? Their interests
are identified with those of Arkansas.
More laborers we must have, says
Gov. ANDERSON, or our fields will
grow up in tares and brambIes. AL
ready the negroes are tOrning %cona6ind-
lions TO make their OrR terms UiH their
employers next season.
But these Arkansas gentlemen are
determined to checkmate all such.
They have no idea of surrendering at
discretion, but on the contrary, have
set the ball in motion in a f1Oper and
business-like way. They want 20O0
Cinnamon; and propose to put the
money in New Orleans by the first
day of November next to defray
their expenses from China to that
port. VIII the shipping merchants
of New York take notice? Here is a
chance to employ all your ships, gen
tlemen, first in the transportation Of
Chinese here, and secondly in trans
porting the fruits of their labor to for
eign countries.
Another word to our citizens here
and of the surrounding country: Come
to the meeting on Wednesday next,
and come prepared to lend aid and
counsel to the great movement, which
we are about to put in motion, and
which we hope will grow and swell
like a great billOw. Labor! more la
Dor! better labor! is what we wants and
MUST have.
We sincerely trust that the neigh
towns will send to Memphis
full delegations Of their solid repre-
sentative men. This is a question of
vast importance, and one which we
to see treated as it deserves.
Let US followthe noble example of our
Arkansas friends. Organize and go to
work, and do not let this fair land de-
generate into a second Jamaica.

The Franklin

The Franklin ReUieU has the fol
lowing items of interest: We noticed
at the depot the other evening on the
train, directed to j.. Nj. Mayes, Column
bia, Tenn, a steam thFeshing ma
chine, manufactured at Richmond,
Ind. 1t is novel thing in these parts,
and was examined with much curiOs-
ity by the astOnished natives. We
suppose the day is not far off when
this machine will be universally used.
ION Tuesday and Wednesday, 18th
and 10th inst, the public exercises of
the Franklin Female Institute were
held. On the succeeding Thursday
and Friday the public exercises of the
CarnatiOn High School took place..
Mr.. House declines to become a candi-
date for Floater, to represent this and
Maury county in the next Legislature.
The Nashville Union and Anlegi-
can of Friday says: There was a large
delegation of the Masonic fraternity
from this city yesterday to participate
in the laying of the corner stone of a
new Masonic Hall at Springfield. Ar
riSing at that place a procession was
formed, in which ten Lodges were
represented. Repairing to the Square
and surrounding the location for the
new building, Col. Garner introduced
John Frizzell to the audience who
then proceeded in the ceremonies of
laying the cornerstone, after which
the procession was again formed and
marched to the fair gounds, when an
able Masonic address was delivered by
Rev. DR.. Hammer, pastor of the Edge
field Tulip Street Church. A sumptu-
Gus dinner was afterwards spread be-
fore the large crowd in attendance,
estimated at upwards of four or five
thousand persons.

STATE FIYANCEg


The financial condition of the State
is truly alarming. Taxed beyond all
precedent afforded by the history of
the State, the expenses of government
have so increased as to exceed by over
one million dollars the public income.
The Comptroller ~confesses that the re-
ceipts into the treasury from the COM
mencement of BRowNLow's reign to
the 30th of September, 1865, amounted
to Sc, 1874, 1925, of which there was re-
ceived from railroads for interest on
the bonds issued to them, $2,079, 247,
so that 81, 1O5, 1913 was wrenched from
the people in the shape of taxes in
a period of three and a half years, an
am0untalmost equalto the whole tax
alton for the ten years Immediately
preceding the war. OF this sum, S524,-
$50 % was used for Legislative pur-
poses; S13S,43 10 for public printing;
$244,5 88 SO in payment of the eX-
penses of the penitentiary, and $685.
126 "A in payment of the militia, who,
as Mr.. BLACKBURNE ~confesses, were
called out to harrass and annoy the
people and to aid in carrying the cleo
ton of 1867. These enormous eXpen-
ditures can best be appreciated by
comparison with those before the
war. We will give two items.
During the ten years from 1852 to
1861, the expenses of the Legislature
were 1888, 718, while during the three
and a half years of Radical rule this
department of the government for ten
years previous to 1861 were 81, 301 1853.
OF this amount about 81, $50, 900 was
expended for schools and public chart
ties, so that the expenses of the State
Government for ten years were but
little Over 81, 800, 600. The expenses of
the BrownlOw administration for three
and a half years were sc, 103, 26S 30,
while the amount paid out for schools
and charities will probably not reach
d udIuVI VI Il HlilIIOn Vi uOlldIS, tlluS
showing that the expenses of the
BrOwnlOw administration have been
greater bynearIy 81 500, 900 than for ten
years previous to the war. Is it not
time for a change in all departments
of our State Government? Is il not
time that the intelligence of the State
was put in possession of its manage
ment; now that we are involved in
the %intficacies of bankruptcy and al
most hopeless ruin stares us in the
face? The promise Of enfranchise-
ment comes at the last moment; but,
let us hope, not too late to arrest the
tide in our financial affairs which has
set in so d~isastrOusly against us.

LITTLE GR1N7.

The President of the United States
has, on several occasions, proven his
~littlenesS and want of appreciation of
important services rendered; but new
er more completely so than on the oc-
casion of the funeral of the late HEN
RY j. RAYMOND, which, i'm violation
of all courtesy, he refused TO attend
on the plea that important business
demanded his presence in Washing
ton a few hours before the sad ceremO-
MES took place. The New York Tli-
6to'e Grant Radically says of this in
difference:
1t was regretted that one who owed him
thlr. RaymOnd) much, whom he had so
Loyalty supported in the field, and i'm poll
tics, when such support was very yalua-
bic, and whom his paper had largely ana
bled to succeed, should have been so
pressed upon with h%urrying public af-
fairs that he could not stay a little LONGER
that President GRANT should be one of
Mr.. Raymond's mOurners.
Thus it is with politicians generally.
They never value editorial services
after success. GRANT is President and
RAYMOND is dead. The former had
reached the summit of ambition, and
the latter was beyond rendering any
further service. But, as the New
York World Democratic says, neither
the memory of Mr.. HENRY J. RAY
MoND nor the profession he so ably
represented can suffer aught from the
individual absence of Mr.. ULYSSES S.
GRANT from the mournful eeremo-
MES; but the presence of the Chief
Magistrate of the United States and
highest representative of the Ameri-
can army, as a pall-bearer along with
the less obtrusive but more univer-
sally honored chief representative of
the American navy, would have been
an appropriate tribute not only to the
memory of the man whose loss we
deplore, but to the noble calling he 50
digniied.

THESEcOND ATLAATTCC4BLE

II1E OECOND ALLH1 ! 0BLE
The Great Eastern is now on her
second trip to this continent, paying
out a telegraph cable that is to connect
France with the United States. All
the accounts that have reached us re
present the mammoth vessel as adj
mirably fitted for her great mission /;
and competent electricians assure us
that this second cable, through which
much of our increasing telegraph bust
ness with Europe is to be transacted is
the latest result of science and mechan-
zeal skill and industry. Beside the
political feature, which guarantees us
telegraphic independence Of Great
Britain, a great result Of this French
cable will be the cheapening of
rates between this country and
Europe. At the rate of ten dol
lars a word, the daily earnings of the
cable were about two thousand seven
hundred and fifty dollars. Now, at
one dollar 4 word, they have gone up
to about three thousand four hundred
dollars a day. 1t is said that further
reduction is in Contemplation, When
the enterprise first started, about two
hundred and seventy words were
transmitted each day. At present,
they average about three thousand
four hundred words a day; that is
nearly equivalent to eight octave
pages of printed matter, There is an
abundance of business for the French,
as well as the English line, and it
will, we hope, be stimulated by low
prices, and a careful attention to all
the details Of cable management.
