MEEpEIIS APPEAL
FRIDAY MORNING, FEB. &c. ISIS
BONDS.

If the city car psy her immediate m
~debtedness, OF meet her liabilities to
employees in any other way than by the
issuance Of the proposed bonds, it de-
wolves upon those who think 80 to show
1t. We can point out only n way.
That is, by delinquent taxpayers at once
paying up their liabilities. These delin-
quents are the parties who are opposing,
with SO much uUbscOmiDg vehemence,
the issuance of the bonds. They viii
not point out any plan TO lead Us cut Of
the difficulty, nor viii they DO their
manifest duty in the premises By meet
ing their obligations, though they are
sbundantly able to do 50. The city must
either issue bonds or go down. This is
the issue. We may torture the question
as we please, but this is the point. Pro-
perty holders may form their "rings"
or " unions " SIS they please. The city's
credit is Of more importance even to
them than their individual credit. II
they can find any way to relieve the city,
other than the one proposed, let them
make known their programme.

CoUNF COMMISSIONER.

We observe two calls, from response
bic parties, FOR meetings to nominate &
candidate for County Commissioner
one to meet this evening at three o'clock
at the Hsll Of the Chamber of Com
msrce, the otner to meet on Tuesday
evening at seven O'Clock, st Exchange
Building. We are not surprised st this
action. The negroes have put in nOmi-
nation 8 man who is supposed, par erce1-
Leace, to be their candidate. Let the
white men Of Shelby county, forgetting
ali past differences, ignoring sll pTeju-
dices Of section OF Of politics, meet in
convention and nominate q trustworthy
man, tCbO shall BE- available, TO secure
success. We would suggest that the
meeting this evening, sitter having calm
" d~eliberated upon the matter and dis
cussed the claims snd fitness OF csndi-
dates. should adjourn to meet the Con-
vention which is to be held on Tuesday
evening. Then let ell psrties interested
determine 70 lay upon the common altar
of the public good their feelings and pre-
judices, and determine that success must
crown their e~xertiOns. There are ONE
who may say, Let the Radicals have
enough Of the negro" Let sll such re-
fleet that they cannot sfJrd TO make
such q concession. The Raiicais, or
rather the Republicans, DO not want the
negro to ruls over them Dr. Us. II we
quit the field, because 3 negro is the
nominee OF a party, we must make 10
our minds to suecgm5 to negro suprem-
scy. Whenever a negro shall be a can
didste for office, must q white man quit
the field, because it will be degrading to
become his competitor? II so, then We
shall have to surrender every Office in
the State to the control Of the Ethiopian
party. NEVER, say We. Let Us resist
his attempted supremacy Of the negro,
at the threshold. Let Us forget al
party differences, all recrimlnations, ali
prejudiees, and unite upon an available
man who can defeat the impudent effort
10 foist upon the people Of Shelby county
8 Northern negro who has no interest il
common with us, except with the lowest
Glass of our population. This impUdeDt
effort cannot meet with the appreciation
Of the lowest white Radical in the
community, unless be be personally and
deeply interested ia such An outrage.
All Others viii repudiase it with scorn-
some Openly-O.hers secretly. We DC
not know cur own strength until we try
it, by q jadieious and united effort. We
must determine to be satisfied with the
nominee. He may not suit our individ-
uRl views. Bat whoever he msy be, we
must resolve TO go Tor him in q crisis so
serious. We must rally as one man.
We must forget all d~ifsrences-au
Prejudices-sl arguments but that which
looks to the supremacy Of the white
race, which means Intelligence and good
government.

AMERICAS MONETARY SYSTEM

Editors Memphis Appeal;
The hnanciers Of the Old School are

preventative Of s specie basis, is making
matters worse. The principle Of 3 paper

ia beginning to attract public attention
and the more it is discussed the wider
spread will become the opinion that it is
the true American system, and the only
one which can relieve our finances from

Astroll around ard about the Depart-

abundance that ri extensive change Is
s~ppFebeDoed by the iuCumbents. Every
body seems to be very busy, extraordi-
narily polite, and 20 sttentive that their
excessive C~ffciousnsss wa absolutely
embarrassing. Now is the time for
pe0ple to have business transacted
promptly and satisfactorily by the
usually circumlocutory officials. Anx.
iety and incerttude were depicted IN the
couDtenance Of every man down to the
very negro messengers. These poor
creatures are really TO be pitied. Upon
every advent Of 8 new President thew
are put through toTments little Inferior

long course Of official d~rujgery. The
exceptions 70 this rule will consist of the
new corners, more especially those whose
appointments we're made through inhu-
ences other than simon.pUre Radical.
The status Of such men will be rigidIy
scrutinized. The new Commissioners OF

that he was nominated chiefly at the in

tors. In the other Bureau 1 hear that

Grant was recently the guest OF this gem
