A BOmbSheII.

The motion made by Mr.. jenkins 10 the
Common Council on Thursday night last
that committee be appointed to investi-
gate the miscellaneous items in the audi
tors report was q perfect bombshell, and
caused huttering in the ranks perfectly
awful to behold. The originator of the
motion intended that the committee ap-
pointed should go to work, and report the
result of their Investigations before the
meeting adjourned, but 10 this he did
not succeed. Twenty four hours time
makes wonderful change in things and
in this case time was certainly money, for it
appears that during the night there was
come tall scratching out and rubbing in,
and transmogrifcation of papers and in
struments of writing. When the commit.
tee got hold of the books yesterday morn
ing, they found everything az clear as
mud.

the largest audiences Of the season, COM
posed principally Of our oldest citizens.
The subject chosen was Paris aud France,
in contrast with Nashville and the United
States" Mr.. Ferguson commenced ms
lecture by detailing the incidents con
nected with his trip to London, aud from
thence 10 Paris, which were highly inter
esting and entertaining and greatly appre-
,is,sJ by pis hearers. He then branched
of into 4 contrast between Napoleon's do
miniors and the territory now presided
ovsr by Gen. Grant, and with great abili-

FIRE has departed from him. The same
e1o,uence which held his hearers SPELL
bourd when he occupied the pulpit OF one
of opr churches, is with him yet, snd the
same people who listened atter,ively then
to his logical and powerful sermons accord
70 him that fuency Of language, and ora

The Meeting at the Capitol To-night. Z
The committee appointed at the meeting
last Saturday met yesterday evening and
agreed upon and signed the following call
for The meeting at the Capitol tonight at
half past 2 o'clock
Men of all parties are earnestly invited
to attend the meeting, 10 spledge their sup
port to Gen. Grant in his devotion to the
constitution and the enforcement of the
laws.
In doing This, there need be no aban.
donment OF principles or even Of party
preferences. But we recognize the fact
that President Grants duties will be most
onerous and delicaie-that in the exercise
of constitutional prerogaiives as Executive
of the nation, he will need support from
good men of all parties, which support we
hold will be the duty Of all good men 10
accord.
Owing TO the hot blood engendered by
the war, il is a most delicate and response
Bile trust which the President has taken
upon himself, and if it shall be apparent,
and we have no reason to disbelieve it
will, that the new President shall endeaver
" ACCOhCiAC thC PCOpAC " CdCu OkHcT,
store harmony and concert, and enforce
the laws, in these things it will be the
duty Of the good men, of all parties to
stand by him. And good men of all par
ties are therefore invited to attend this
meeting, not With view of forming new
parties, but to pledge to each other, as the
President has recommended, mutual for.
bearance on questions of difference, and CO.
| operation in the execution and enforcement
of the laws, and to pledge the President
| that we will make no factious
party war upon his administration, but TO
assure him, in the most solemn manner,
that we deprecate the strife which now
threatens the country, and that we do not
| sympathlze with any party hostility to him
as President. That we realize the condi.
ton of the country, and believe it is
most solemn and sacred duty of all good
men to sustain the officers of the law with
out regard to party. The faithful discharge
of this duty, we trust, will do much to al
lay the hostility between the sections
which threatens the overthrow of the gov
eminent. In this interest, and for this
| purpose, we earnestly invite men of all
parties to attend the meeting.
