1t is encouraging TO know that after all
the sdroit maneuvers Of the ring" the
railroad stocks, SO long jeopsrdizsd, hsve
been, for the last time, let Us hope, res
eued from their clutches. Nj. SIMPSON,
through his attorney, Judge MARYLAND
L. PERKINS, yielded to the opportunities
of good citizens, as well as members OF
the city Government, and withdrew the
order for a peremptory sale Of the COW
eted stock, assuring the parties, as he did
so, that he would wait q farther reasoDa-
bic time for the money so long due to him
by the city. For this step we are, one
and all, greatly indebted to Mr.. SIMPSON.
The Finance Committee, acting in the
spirit Of the suggestions of the APPEAL,
are becoming more and more familiar
with the condition Of the treasury and
city indebtedness. The gentlemen COM
prising it have determined not to bave
any dealings with the ring" deemlng
such 3 step necessary, as preliminary to
the release Of Memphis from present en-
barrassments, and her establishment
upon a sound and healthy financial basis.
Working in this way they may be as
sured OF the hearty commentators of
the press, and the support Of a public so
long used to dissppointments a to be
prepared to greet with heartiest applause
and gratitude the least modicum OF
financial relief that can be afforded

10 the United States because il assumes
to measure the injury inflicted upon this
country by the money value of the ships
actually destroyed whereas the chief
damage to our commerce was Ia cur
ships being driven from the seas by
Anglo-rebeI pirates. In addition to Ibis,
the sympathy extended by the English
Government to the South prolonged the

and money expended for this time Eng
land is directly responsible. The treaty
proposes to settle ali these things by the
PAYMENT o! the paltry value Of q few
