THEREare two papers which have
run up the name of STOKES to their
masthead, that have come out fairly
and squarely for universal suffrage
the Chattanooga Republican and the
Shelbyville Republican. The latter
came out editorially the day before
STOKES made his Nashville speech,
in favor of the unconditional repeal OF
the franchise law, declaring that it
had "flled its mission by establishing
the principles of republicanism be-
yond the possibility of change, except
b. bloody revolution This declara-
ton is Endorsed ~emphatically by the
Chattanooga paper, which declares
that disfranchisement should no
no longer be the policy ofthe Repub-
lican party, and that to maintain it
would be an evidence of selishners,
not of craftsmanship, and selfshness
of this kind, which, instead of pre-
serving the party, would result event
ually in its more complete overthrow.
The supporters of Stokes in this
/ region had better think well of what
these two sensible, far-sighted journals
say, and remember that, no matter
whether they keep the Stokes flag
flying, or not, men who think and
write thus can never give him the cor
dial and ardent support that they 9TH

THE New York Herald of the 9th,
concluding an able and lengthy editO-
rial on the coming Gcumenical COun-
ell, says: Meanwhile the Council of
the Vatican is a great coming event.
1t is, to all appearance, to be the great
world-faet of 1869. Already travellers
from far are setting out for the Holy
CITY. Rome promises to be crowded
as it has not been for many genera
lions. The Church of st. Peter on the
occasion of the opening o fthe Council
will present a spectacle such as is seen
but rarely in the course of the ages.
What the Council will do we know
not. Whether it will be a success we
must wait to see. The eyes of the
world will be upon it. The shield OF
infallibility will not save it from mer-
CHESS criticism. 1t must be either a
great failure or a great success. If IT
rises to the dignity of the occasion and
undoes some things which ought never
to have been done in the name of re-
ligion; If it succeeds in placing the
Church in harmony with this age OF
steam, electricity, newspapers and
free thought, it will not have met in
| vain. If it does not accomplish some
thing in this direction, it had better
never been convened.

THE Shanghai EreniRg Courier pre-
SCENTS a different view of Mr.. Bur-
ITNCAME and his Chinese mission
from that generally received. AccOr-
ding to that paper the Yankee man.
DARN is nothing but a "dead beat" a
" fraud" employed at forty thousand
taels a year, for the purpose of "spy-
ing out the nakedness Of the land"
in the west; that with him have been
sent "two suitable men of low estate
to play the spy" on him; that instead
of being the cream of Chinese nobil-
ity they are persons raised to the
Z" temporary rank of Taoutai," a rank
at one time "held by nearly half the
coupradores in Shanghai;" that BUR-
LINGANIE and the brevet Taoutais {"
are called ambassadors, but that "the
whole thing is ga gigantic hoax"
and that the Chinese have not sent,
and until the leopard changes his spots
win not send, a genuine embassy to
any foreign power.

Because we have not built as many

TO regard Memphis as struck by the evil
eve. coniured or hoo-dooed out of all
the spirit that in the latter years char
acterized her. We lost in 1866 a
large floating surplus and vagabond
population, and therefore deemed the
glory had departed from Israel, and
that thereafter we were to be a prey to
misfortunes and decay. Misfortunes
did come, but, happily, were of short
duration. In '67 we were utterly
PROSTATE; bankruptcy was the order
of the day, and an almost settled
gloom pervaded the community. Out
of this we emerged on the cotton bales
of 1868, the number and the price OF
which enabled us to fully recuperate
and prepare to engage in a healthy
contest with the city owned by the
Louisville COuuier-JOMndl, and with
st. Louis, both of which have since
the outset of the wal occupied much
of the territory once tributary to US,
and enjoyed a trade upon which we
formerly prided ourselves as a source
of wealth. The organization o.
a barge company, and the
removal of the Marine Ways from
Cairo are significant that we are about
to engage in that contest, that our
merchants are alive to its Importance
and extent and the results likely t.

As WAS announced by us a day or
two ago would be the case, the Press
and Times, Stokes Nashville organ,
was sold out to the SENTER party on
Tuesday last. 1t appeared for the last
time as a partisan of the bald headed
War Eagle" on Wednesday morning,
in which edition Messrs. BOVELL &
GRESHAM, who for a month past have
edited it, issued their valedictOry, a
document a part of which, no matter
what may be the political sentiments
of the writers, speaks well for them as
men. Their course in the late expos
ures of the villainy of the Nashville
city officials has been highly COM
mendable and praiseworthy.
Lest the sale of the paper and its
6OulererSeDleR from STOKES toSENTER
should be construed into an abandon
ment of principle, a card is incOrpO-
rated in the valedictOry, from TRAVIS
WINHAM, agent Of the Press and
Times Company, as follows:
This is to certify that Geo. f. Grisham
and :. A. Bowel never owned an interest,
at any time, in the Nashville Daily Press
and Times office, they being simply en-
ployed as editors, and hence are in no
wise responsible for the sale and transfer
of the same.
The valedietory concludes by say
ing: Confident of ultimate triumph
over all opposition, we will, in a few
days, again fling our banner to the
breeze, with not a stripe erased or a
star ~obliterated, the bald eagle of the
mountains nesting in its folds"

endorse the manly position Of Gov.
