Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-08-17

THE AUdldHche represents itse
lately as very much the victim of per
secution. 1t has manifested decided
peJachant for playing martyr. Our
neighbor certainly can not intend tC
take up the game of the recently
squelched carpet-baggers of Tennes-
see. They cut it rather fat on the
{" persecution dodge, but it wore out,
and at last didn't win worth a cent.
We remind our neighbOr that there is
no persecution for opinion or anything
else in Tennessee. The antagonists OF
our contemporary have more to COM
plain Of, on this score, from him, than
he can possibly urge against them.
For their arguments he returns rough,
bitter and abusive words. No, no,
neighbOr you have no ground for SYM
pathy-unless being fairly beaten by
force of reason and the logic of truth,
may entitle the vanquish,d to wear
the martyrs crown.

DR.. WILLIAM FIELD, of vii
mington, Delaware, is said 70 havt
discovered the means of making iror
by a process by which the quality i:
greatly improved, at the same time
that the cost of production is reduced
Thisis certainly a matter of great i'm.
p%Ortance. Iron is a necessary, and
almost the most valuable product O.
the arts, and an indispensable of civil
lied life. The New York Tribune
makes the following statement:
We have been shown various speci.
mems of iron and steel made byaneW
process discovered by DIR. VIM. Field,
of Wilmington, Del. That they are
all of Extraordinary excellence no one
at all familiar with iron can doubt after
seeing them, and from the steel have
been manufactured files, ragOrs. etc.
OF the finest quality. This iron Is
made from very common pig by the
addition of certain chemicals in the
process of pudding, whereby all sui
phur and phosphorus is eliminated
and banished at a cost of seventy to
eighty cents perton of iron. DR.. Field
says that he can thus make a superior
iron of any pig, and at a trifling
expense. That shown us was eXhib-
tied side by side with the famous
Lowmoor (British) iron, sold here at
twenty-one cents per pound, and is
fully its equal; and it challenges COM
parisOn with the best Norwegian or
Swedish iron. DIR. F. claims a like
superiority for his pig iron, and that
his castings r five times as strong as
those made by the old process. He
asserts that iron subjected to his pro-
cess does not stick to the bottom OF
the furnace, is more uniform in quail
ty, exceedingly tough and tenacious,
and "a be u out of any existing
furnace with a saving of some twenty
five pounds per day now wasted in
running out.

THE New York Herald, speaking OF
the Cabinet meeting held on the 10th,
says: The Spanish gunboats will
L" not be permitted to leavethe United
{" States. The Government expresses
" its sympathy with the Cubans in
" their heroic struggle for independ-
t" ence, and does not hesitate to say
" the inevitable destiny Of Cuba is to
L" be free and to become a part of the
{" republican system of America. The
" Secretary plainly intimated, too,
" that the administration expects the
/" success of the Cubans, and that the
" time will come when our Govern
" ment al recognize them as having
" an independent or national exist
" ence. So much is gained at least
|" and although the Government does
" not move as fast as the people may
" wish, such expressions will have
" their effect both upon Spain and il
4" Cuba"

THE San Francisco Daily Times "a
Republican paper) characteristics the
result of our State election as express
i've OF a "desire for peace, and the
strong determination to bury the past,
and strike out a new policy based on
living issues" That isnear the truth.
1t was not SENTER, but reform, for
which the people pronounced. at
remains" says the Times, "to be seen
whether the people of that State will
avail themselves of the opportunity
now afforded them, of proving the
sincerity of their desire to separate
themselves from the past, or whether
they will yield to those demagogues
who will, in all probability, endeavor
to persuade them that they have now
got the State government in their own
hands, and can do with it as they see
fit" And, it adds, 1--WE contemplate
no such folly from the people of Ten
nessee." What, then, is the folly the
Times does contemplate? Does it ex-
pect the people of Tennessee will do
with their government as they do not
see fit? Is that the Republicanism of
of 1869, which the Times advocates,
that the people must look to Washing
ton for..instructions about their laws,
and are not to be guilty of the folly of
enacting such as they choose?
What is such a doctrine as that
Black Republicanism, or Red Repub-
licanism, or Imperialism? The editor
says in the same article: "The at
tempt to force Stokes on the people
of Tennessee, if such an attempt was
made, (Which is open to question) was
imprudent and unjustifable." If,
then, the Government shouldnot force
STOKES on the State, what should it.

sRffrage? Such u~tterances from the
Republican press are rather remarka-
ble-this blowing hot and cold in the
same breath, first telling one of the
great family of States that it "eontem-
plates no such folly" as that of a State
attending to its own domestic affairs
in its own way, and next talking
about interference of the Government
as "imprudent and unjustifia-
ble." The fact is, our So
called Republican neighbors have
their muddy brains in somewhat of a
muddled condition, They seem to be
half democrats and half monarchists.

If it is the intention of the Govern
ment to force negro suffrage on the
States, and especially on Virginia,
Mississippi and Texas, then it may be
necessary to submit, for we must have
peace, even at such great expense. No
resistance to the Government is con-
templatedin any quarter. But wheth-
err it does intend that suffrage shall be
universal, and whether it intends to
force such a result, may now be doubt
ed. We believe that the change of
public opinion evidently going on will
react on Congress, and, for aught ap-
pears, with effect so powerful as
to prevent the further use of force or
influence on the domestic policy cfthe
States. We doubt now whether the
country will consent, or Congress dare
to require from the three unrecOn-
structed States, as the condition to
their admission to the Union. what is
not common to the States. By
consent of three-fourths of the
States, free and able to give consent,
the measure of universal suf-
frage as a national provision can alone
be forced on the nation with the COM
mon consent and sanction. That issue,
we doubt not, all will Loyalty abide.
That the Legislative and Executive
departments of the Government viii
undertake to force so anti Republican
and injurious q measure strikes US as
quite problematieal if rot improbable.
And to act now on the presumption
that they will do so, and in con-
sequence of a fear of such action, to
voluntarily embrace a policy which
experience has shown to be injurious
to us, is to act with an undue haste
and trepidation, which we think the
Circumstances do not warrant. The
issue has been raised here by the
assumption Of a portion Of OH press
that the election OF sENFER
was conclusive of the subject, and
binding consequently on the
Conservatives of the State. This
we have denied because we
have neither so voted, nor under
stood such to be the intention of those
who voted with US oF SENTER. 1t
will be time enough to consent 10 ap
injurious policy when that is auth0ri-
tatively required Of Us, The Rprecon-
structedS States will obey the commands
of the military authorities which have
them IN charge. But we are by no
mean assured just nov thet their adj
mission to the Union will depend On
their obedience to the behests of what
is now but a decaying and dying
party.

know not what they do-they are at
sea in danger of the breakers for per
petuation OF their war necessity doc
trines, and without a compass or the
chart of the Constitution. Would 1t
not be better to come back to the old
landmarks, recognize the truly Re
publican principles of the Constitu-
ton, and trust the people OF the
United States, who almost, or quite
without an individual exception, are
Ioyal to that Constitution?
The Tennessee election has turned
the heads of the Radical editors so
that they are sorely puzzled what to
say about this new rebellion against
their dietation. We are pleased to see,
however, that their eyes are beginning
to open and their tone to moderate as
appears from words of caution which

result of the Virginia elections should
have shown the Government that a

Instead of keeping up a constant irri-
tation in the Southern States, the in
terests of the nation require that steps
should be taken to allay the existing
acerbity of feeling, and when it be-
comes evident that the majority OF
the Southern people r willing to
accept the conditions imposed by the
Government, it should be the business
of the latter to meet them in a friend
ly spirit, and not to check their adj
vance by the exhibition of cold suspl-
cion, and the maintenance of harsh
measures. Indeed, it has become ev-
ident that the best men of the South
have obtained such an ascendancy
that they are in a position to work out
the problem of reconstruction fully
and satisfactorily, if left to them
