master Of Memphis presents feature IN
the art of government, in this age Of
tinssl and humbugiana, that is beautiful
and cheering. He steps outside the
putrid politics of the times, and by his
action asserts, as Il were, the golden
principle that the native residents OF q
State, who understand its wants and its
peculiarities, are the safest, wisest and
best persons to fll Offices within it's
borders. This is the essence Of State
sovereignty; the foundation of State
rights. It is more: it is gem that gilt
ters with sublime luster in every Bill of
Rights and State Constitution written,
from the time the Declaration of Inde-
pendence was adopted until the close Of
the late Civil War. Who with an atom
of active brains in bis head will condemn
q President for returning to the prin-
ciplss of the Fathers of the Republic
even in the appointment of a Postmaster2
Let shallow-pated and principle-desert-
ing politicians, who follow all parties
for pap, as wild fowl follow ships on the
Gulf coast for crumbs, stand aside and
quit their clamoring, the days Of the
csrpet-baggers are numbered. A few
hundred miles more Of the Kansas and
California and Memphis and Little Rock
railroads completed, and we will be in
direct communication with the Pacific
Ocean. What then Why we will have
an immigration of the cheapest land
workers in the world from China, who
will not only cultivate the sell in man
ner to raise large crops of cotton, sugar,
rice, hemp and tobacco, but plant and
produce tea in such quantities as will
add greatly to our exports, thereby i'm
proving orr commerce, helping our
manufactures, and establishing our pros
perity. More than this: they will drive
the idle negro northward, and end the
reign of scalawsgs. There are people
in Memphis with eyes, but they cant
see well; there are people who talk, but
never say anything sensible; and there
are people who croak, but cannot give a
satisfactory reason for their croaking.

tains volume of associations that turn

the eloquence of Bell, Netherland, Neil

Atkins and others shed rays of luster on
State and Federal politics; when bar
mony, love and friendship extended from
one end of this fruitful State to the
other when our barbecues were like
and our public meetings like
social gatherings; when strangers from
all ends of the earth were welcomed with

the Mississippi case. The quarrel OF
Schenck and Butler is bringing forth
fruits, and the former, who has generally
been leader in assailing and trsmpliug
the South under foot, with others
of the Radical school, united in resisting
Buffers atrocious proposition to hand
over Mississippi to the tender mercy of
the carpetbsggers and sealawags. Butler
remarked today that Schenck, Dawes
and yarnsworth had formed q conspiracy
against him. Hopes are INDUCED that the
Mississippi bill will be defeated or at
least postponed until December. The
substitute offered for Butler's bill
by Farnsworth is understood to present
the Presidents views. 1t provides for
submitting the Constitution again to the
people with the obnoxious clauses to be
voted 90 separately, the election to be
held under the authority Of the General
commanding, thus preeluding the carpet
baggers from conducting the election in
their own way and for their own interests,
as Builer's bill allows them to do.
