leave London in the fab on a visit,
perhaps to stay to his old home IN
Mississippi. Mrs. DAVIS and one of
her children have been i'll, occasioning
some anxiety to Mr.. DAVIS, a fact
that no doubt has something to do
with the rumor. In this connection,
we make room for the following from
a London paper, which would seem to
confirm the information above. 1t
says: Zone faneies it is not very much
T" known that Mr.. JEFFERSON DAVIS,
1" the ex-President of the Confederate
" States Of America, is living in Lon
"don, and is, moreover, an object OF
"great attraction to the fashionable
world. One hears that his house is
{" besieged by callers, and invitations
''pour in on him in such abundance
|" that he is unable to avail himself OF
"a third of them, and besides his at
/" tendance on those which he attempts
" TO comply with has been so fatiguing
I" that he is about to take refuge in a
quiet retreat in the Isle of Wight.
"They say that Mr.. DAVIS circum-
I" stances are good, his income being
I" derived from the profits of a partner
"ship in firm at Liverpool"

By some ehicanery Gen. SHERIDAN
has been elected President of the SOci-
ETY. of the Army of the Potomac, an
army with which, strictly speaking,
he. was at no time connected. He
commanded a cavalry corps, with
which he operated in the Shenandoah
Valley, but did not at any time serve
with what was known as the Army
of the Potomac. Both MCCLELLAN
and MEADE were passed over by the
cliques and hungry politicians who
control this ex-soldier organization,
and with a view, as the New York
World says, to put SHERIDAN in
training for the Radical candidate for
President in 1872, as the successor of
GRANT. They desired that position
as a stepping-stone, and as a means to
secure the assistance of that Society in
carrying out their programme for
1872. The scheme is said TO be extern
sively laid, and has the support of
GRANT, who expects at the end of his
term to be rich enough, through pres
ents and profits in the sale of offices,
to retire to private life.

TIE B CONTENTION


Promises to be an important gath
ering. Steamboats, and railroad trains
bring from all sections gentlemen di-
rectly interested in the great question
of labor, who will go into the Conven-
ton determined upon a solution of it
that will relieve the country of all
a~nxieties for the future. They come
from every part of the South. The
South Carolina and Georgia rice
planters, and the Louisiana sugar
planters will be prominently repre-
scented in this gathering. They
are particularly and peculiarly
interested in the movement, as
indeed are those engaged in the
cultivation of cotton. They have
suffered more and are suffering more
from the Indifference and laziness of
the negro than any other class Of
agriculturists in the South. To them,
the introduction of Chinese immi-
grants means a full supply of intelli-
gent laborers, willing workers skilled
in the production of the crops to
which they are devoted, and release
from present intolerable thraldom.
Hence their prOmptness to be among
the first in this movement, which we
are well advised will result in answer
ing all their anticipatiOns.
The men of Memphis who have the
Convention in charge are full of energy
and determined upon favorable
results. They know, as we
know, that the introduction
of European immigrants is too
slow to result in the immediate help
needed to a rapid recuperation of the
South, and they wisely turn to the
Pacific coast, where every day all that
is desirable in plantation labor is be-
ing landed from China and Japan.
They are in communication with the
six companies of San Francisco
through whom the Chinesea are brought
to this country, and by whom they
are hired; and have invited their
agent to be present at the gathering
of tomorrow for the purpose of an
swering all questions, and putting our
planters in possession of all the infor-
nation upon the subject that they
may desire.
This movement has the endorsement
of the great organs Of public opinion
at the North and Westand the hearty
~gOod-speed of leading statesmen who
see in it relief for the South and ulti-
mate benefit, great benefit to the
whole country. hope and believe
the deliberations of the Convention
viii conduce to so desirable q result, |
and that next fall will find an abund-
ance of Chinese labor to assist in gath
ering the crops now maturing in most
promising abundance.

The Executive Committee of the
Conservative party appointed Satur-
day last as the day for the election OF
delegates to the proposed Conservative
Convention. In selecting that day,
and requiring that the citizens of the
several wards and districts should act
simultaneously, the COMMITTEES sought
TO give them plenty Of time TO look
about for available men, and to pre-
vent the 'fstufing'' process which
usually prevails when wards and dis
districts vote on different days.
So far as reported, the result is all that
could have been expected or desired.
In nearly all the wards of the city the
meetings were attended by the
best men. The result is conse-
quently disastrous to those who
had cut and dried programmes,
and who expected, as in times
past, to send certain men, and
no others, to the Convention. Mer-
chants, lawyers, business men, prop
erty-owners, mechanics and labOring
men, encouraged by the new order of
things induced by the decisions of the
Supreme Court and liberal policy ad-
vocated by Governor SENTER, were.
out in large numbers, not merely as
lockers on, but to participate warmly,
and, as the result proves, effectively in
the labors preliminary to their enfran-
chisement. The State on the verge of.
bankruptcy, and our county and city
financially weak, it is about time that
such men should come to the front
and prove by the interest they take
that they recognize their public
duties and ire prepared to perform
them. They were not quite successful
in all the wards; yet suficientlyso to
encourage them to continue, as we hope
they will, on all occasionsin the hture.
In the lists before us we recognize the
names of many good and intelligent
citizens, who will have weight in the
Convention and be abIe TODD much by |
the selection of eligible candidates for
the Legisture, to secure the great end
we havein view-the Acknowledgement
of the white people of Tennessee. The
result of the ward and district meet
ings taken n a whole Is very eneour-
aging. We hope for a harmoniousI
Convention and for nominations that
will represent the ability, the worth
and the responsibility of the eommu-
nifty.

Montreal, upon what was presumed
TO be good authority, to the effect that
