STILL MORE ESS IN TEN
NESSEE

The Memphis Appeal of the 9th
inst. contains the following state
ment:
at seems the spirit which prompted
the negro mob at Macon is travelling to-
ward the city. 1t made its appearance
Saturday evening at Mason's Depot, on
the Mobile and Ohio railroad, in the
shape of riotous, bloodthirsty gang Of
blacks, parading the streets of the vii.
lage, yelling, shouting, cursing, and
threatening to kill any white man who
dared to interfere with them, and
eliminated by breaking open the
lookup or Jail and releasing three
negro prisoners confined therein. Our
informant, a passenger by the 1890 p. m.
train over that road yesterday, says that
the negroes met with no resistance, save
at the hands Of three white men, who on.
ly gave up the attempt when they found
that they alone were left by the other
villagers to face the Infatuated mob. A
squad Of white men did muster up cour-
age enough yesterday to 90 in pursuit Of
the rescued prisoners, who are supposed
to be lurking in the neighborhOOd, but
had not returned when the train passed.
These negro outbreaks are bee
coming alarmingly frequent in West
Tennessee. They bode only evil
for the peace and quiet Of that sec
ton, yet we hear Of no bowling 10y
Radical papers over this terrible
condition Of affairs. The Memphis
Radical paper has not a line about
this breaking open the jail and set
ting the law at defiance. If the
white people of Mason's Depot had
interposed to prevent the jail being
broken open and criminals set at
liberty by this black mob, there
would no doubt have been a bloody
riot, attended by loss of life. If
these demonstrations of mob
violence on the part Of the negroes
be continued, there is scarcely a
doubt that they will lead to serious
consequences, for the white people
will become exasperated at such
conduct, and will protect themselves
and Cheir friends from insult and
violence. These instances of mob
lawshould be looked into promptly,
and the leaders arrested and pun
ished. The laws must be respected
and Obeyed.

Hancock. The purpose OF Mr.
Maynards amendment was to create
five additional members of the
House of Representatives, as
is clearly shown by the "of-
fetal report of the proceed
ings" of the convention, and
it is stated there as having that
effect. How that amendment got
into the shape in which it appears
in the "ofiicial report" is not
shown in any of the reports of the
proceedings of the convention.
Even if we accept the eighth secs
ton of the schedule as law, there
have been two, if not four bogus
members in the House of Repro-
sentativcs since the reorganization
of the State government. The
"official report OF the proceedings
Of the convention states distinctly
that after the eighth section of the
schedule had been adopted, it was
reconsidered Gin order to add menu
bers' from certain counties, "not
now allowed full representation,
making the whole number of the
House eighty" This clearly indi-
Gates the presence in the House of
Representatives of four bogus mem
bers. But take the proviso as
printed in the "oficial report" and
| in the acts of 1865, in connection
with the proceedings of the conven-
ton, and it is clear that there have
been two bogus members in the
House of Representatives. The
proof is very clear as to the extent
and intention of the modification of
the apportionment act of Feb. 10,
1852, so far as relates to the coun-
ties of Johnson, Carter, Campbell
and Anderson. They were each to
send one member Gin all, four) to
the House of Representatives; in
stead of which they have each sent
one, and Johnson and Carter
| jointly one, and Campbell and An
derson jointly one, making six, in
stead of four which the "oflicial
report of the proceedings" of the
convention shows they were only
to have. But the whole eighth Sec
| ton of the schedule was a tempo
rary affair, as is clearly shown by
the fact that no effort was ever
made to elect members of the LIE
| gislature "by general ticket" after
the election of March 4, 1865. The
first vacancy that occurred in the frs
Legislature under the reorganiseG
government was filled by an cleo
tion by the qualified voters of The
county or district. The bogus
members were only tolerated be
cause they belonged to the party il
power. 1t is a fraud upon the Stat

THE Memphis Post, which was
understood to favor Stokes just be-
fore the late election, denounces
the protest of the Radical sore-
heads who met in this city a couple
of weeks ago. That paper says;
1--WE dissent from the professionals in
pronOuncing the election "as simply null
and obligatory upon nobody" We are,
on the contrary bound to acquiescs in
the result until the prima facie legality is
overthrow before the proper tribunal
However fragrant the wrongs, we are not
justified, only as last resort in defence
Of our lives and liberties, to take the law
in our own hands and decide and exc
cute it as we pleas" sEt.--.f
The Post declares that "the
country will not support Congress
ia any doubtful interference" such
as Stokes henchmen have invited.

STOKES AND HIS PARrlsANS AP.
PRECIATED.

The Washington correspondent
of the New York Times states in his
letter of the 9Th inst. that, contrary
to what has been reported on the
subject, Grant made no request or
suggestion in his interview with
Governor Senter, that the old
Legislature should be convened for
the purpose Of ratifying the pro-
posed fifteenth amendment. The
Times correspondent says:
1.-THE possible good that might result
from the ratification Of the amendment
by the old Legislature, even were there
no legal difficulties about it, might be
more than counterbalanced by the probs
able indiscreet action of Stokes and his
friends, who, in their present temper, are
undoubtedly anxious to seize upon any
means Of interference which will nullify
the result of the recent election, and as
the old Legislature is decidedly with
them, line of action would be apt to
follow inimical to the peace of the State,
and wholly indefensible from a party
point Of view
1t appears from this that Grant
appreciates the character of Stokes
and his partisans in this State. II
the old Legislature had been con-
vened to ratify the fifteenth amend
ment, there is no guessing what
folly or worse than folly the Radi-
cal members of that body would
not have committed. The protest
of Stokes henchmen against the
validity and legality of tho late
election, shows that the partisans
Of the Great Defeated are prepared
to resort to the most desperate ex.
pedients. 1t was a wise decision Of
Gov. Senter not to call the old Leg
