EplroRs LEDGER: Will you be kind
enough TO ask Mr. Comptroller Shepherd,
in making ont his lengthy report OF the
city finances, what he has done with the
eighty.fve acres of navy yard properly,
worth at least 100000, and which 10
mortgaged for the pay ment of the $3OO,..
600 Memphis and Little Rock railroad
bonds. The rent of this property is
being collected by the Receiver and ap-
piled 10 payment of the interest on said
bonds-he has already paid the January
(l870) interest on same.
A,so, what has been done about the
$275 900 paving bonds, loaned to L. Il.
Brown q Co. on their paving account;
aud for the protection of the city against
the payment of either principal or in
terest thereof Messrs. Brown d Co. de-
ppsited with the City Attorney sundry
claims against citizens for N colson pave
ment laid 10 front of their properly,
am ntipg to about 5000, 900
Also, about 500 900 due the city from
sundry citizens, from the same source,
under the Forrest, Mitchell Il Co. "
contract.
Also, SIS 900, and over due the city,
from the Avalanche office.
Also, twelve acres Of land on the
Raleigh road, known as the Home for
the Homeless"
Also, the hospital and storehouse in
Exchange Building These alone cost
the city $4,000. Also, FIVE engine
houses, worth at least $4,000 each; the
lot where the city stables are, worth at
least $4,000; the two market-houses,
$40 900 each. Ut is much better to let
these out to private enterprise, as is so
successfully done in other cities. The
SIS. 900 of bonds added by the Comp
trollsr, take it for granted, was in the
amount that the books showed to be ont
standing in the first instance, and should
not again be added.

THE DISARILFFT HILL

In the discussion of the bill for the
removal of the disabilities of certain per
sons therein named, Mr.. Maynard, of
Tennessee, moved to amend the bill by
striking out the names of Neil s. Brown
and other prominent Tennesseeans.
Mr.. Van Trump, of Ohio, inquired
whether Mr.. Brown and those proposed
to be stricken out were Democrats or Re
publicans2
Mr. Maynard said his answer to that
was, that it would be difficult to deter
mine whether they were Democrats or
Rebels.
Mr.. Porter, of Virginia, moved to
amend by striking out the names of A.
II. II. Stewart, Asa Rogers, R. T. Dan
iels, John L. Mayre and other Virginans.
Mr. Hotchkiss, of New York, would
vote against the bill because he wanted a
general measure introduced, and one that
would impose conditions.
Mr.. Randall, of Pennsylvania, refer
ring to Mr. Maynard's and Mr.. Porter's
motion to strike out certain names, said
he deprecated any such course, for when
these motions were made they were gen
orally the result of some personal feeling
of a local character.
Mr.. Maynard denied that there was any
personal feeling in this matter He was
in favor of pardoning the small offenders,
but not the leaders.
The question was then taken upon the
amendment Offered by Mr.. Whittemore to
add the House bill, and it was agreed to-
The amendments offered by Messrs.
Maynard and Porter respectively were re-
jcGted.
Mr.. Butler, of Massachusetts, in ex-
planning the bill, said every name here
was inserted only after the personal ap-
pication of the individual, and after he
was endorsed by prominent citizens, and
these applications were placed Oh file, so
so that if any man denied that he had
make application, it could be shown eth
er that his name had been forged or that
he was liar. Referring to the remarks
of Mr.. Brooks, he denied that the United
States had exercised very cruel policy
toward the South. The time had not yet
come when amnesty could be general.
Mr.. Stokes, of Tennessee said he would
vote for this bill and against every pro-
position to strike out any names from the
body Of the bill. Hir policy was to re-
lieve all that presented themselves as
rapidly as possible.

APRoPOs of the Fitz-John Porter case,
the following, from Swinton's "Army of
the Potomac, " is of value:
Probably there is 10 military man
who will now say that the operation indi-
Gated by Pope was at that time possible.
Porter, many months subsequent to these
events, and after having in the mean
while had command of the forces for the
defence of the capital, and been at the
head Of his corps at the battle of Ante
tam, was arraigned before a court-martial
at Washington, and dismissed the service
of the United States, for alleged disobe-
dience to the above orders of Pope.
do not constitute myself the champion of
General Porter, nor of any other officer;
but having become possessed of the Con-
federate official reports, and having been
struck with the new light thrown on
these events by the unconscious testimony
given above by the Confederate generals,
should have violated my instinct of his
tOric veracity to have suppressed these
facts"
Mr.. Swinton was the army CORE
spondent of the New York Times, and
his history of the operations of the army
of the Potomac is regarded as one of the
fairest, most impartial that has been pre-
sented to the public. He is decided Re
publican, and therefore not likely to be
enamOred of Gen. Porter. Hence, his
conclusions are valuable; and, the coun-
try will admit, conclusive. Nevertheless,
Porter will not receive justice. To give
him justice would be to unmask the ras-
cality which procured his conviction.

IT appears that North Carolina is fixing

IT appears that North Carolina is fixing
up a case for Congressional intervention
in the way of reconstruction. The Wash
ington correspondent of the New York
World writes:
can experienced North Carolina poll
tician expressed the opinion that, at the
next general election in that State, the
Radical party viii be swept from power.
The excuses and cOrruptions of the Rad
ical Legislature have produced such a
feeling that even that body is alarmed.
They are now sending messengers to the
parties to whom they issued millions of
State bonds, asking their return. Some
of these parties have moved out of the
State. The recovery of the bonds is very
doubtful. Gov. Holden is implicated in
these transactions, which have resulted
in an addition of SIS, 900, 900 to the State
debt, without anything to show for it.
If the auti-Radicals should carry the
State at the next election, that fact will
present strong case for Congressional
interference, just as it did in Georgia.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-02-25

of malignant government have sadly de-
moralized the country. A disregard of
the constitution and laws by our rulers,
originating in passion instead of princi-
pie, and the appearance of masked MODS
and of repeated assassinations are all the
outcropping of that deplorable demon
aliZation.
Nv motives are two-fold; First and
principally, to point out and give impetus,
if possible, to true national principles in
the Republican party in this State; and,
secondly, to point out and protest against
those usurpations which are rapidly caus-
ing the State government to degenerate
into miserable espotism-hoping to
Justify my fir ends in the support they
have given me- The responsibility of
such step was great, as you may have
observed. Mere dissent to the official
acts of the Governor is pronounced by
the Knoxville Wing as ''treason against
mankind"
The franchise law, in its perpetual and
unconditional features, and the machinery
| of that law, is all that / condemn in our
| form of government The great evil is
| not in the spirit of the government, but
| in the usurpations of the Executive De-
| partment, and the passage OF partisan
| and class laws calculated to lrrltate and
| ipfame instead of to heal and improve
| the decentralization of the country In its
| social relations.
| The most fearful feature in our affairs
| is that militia is considered the panacea for
| all social evils. Militia are intended by
| our Constitution to quell instruction and
rebellion, but Individual cases of murder,
however frequent, do not amount to in
surrection or rebellion. We have had a
simple law suit decided in the city of
Nashville by the use of militia. 1t will
take but a step more to introduce &is
agency in the collection of debts, the as
sessment of damages, and as means OF
| carving elections. am amazed at the
silence with which the people submit
to these wrongs. When the Gov
ernor, little over a year ago, in
a well considered State paper, an
| pounced his determination to appoint
| all the officers of the State or not, as he
! deemed proper, l expected to hear one
unanimous protest from all parties ant
from the General Government. But, in
stead of that he was quietly elected to tht
United States Senate. 1t is true this as
sumed power has since been exercised
only in the cases of Judges and Attorney
General and few county officers, but
nevertheless the power is assumed ant
submitted to, and operates complete
change of the government from re
public to despotism.
If the Governor has power to appoin
the judicial, he has power to appoint tn
legislative and the executive officers, 70
the warrant (the schedule) under which
he acts applies to all alike. In latenum
Der of the Governors paper this power i
re-afirmed and proclaimed.
