POLITICS IN STOREY CoUsIY.-The San Fran
cisco Chronicles correspondent at Virginia
City is generally very reliable and correct. A
late letter from that place says, ''the Republi-
can nominations will be entirely controlled by
the Ring" aud none but those devoted to
its interests will be allowed a place upop
the ticket. Those composing the Ring" are
particularly anxious to secure the Sheriff SO
as to control the power Of the county for the
protection of their Chinese employees, Who
are said to be already contracted for" OF
the Democratic nominations, the cores
pendent says: The workingmen COMPOSING
the Democratic party are making their ar
ran9ements to Nominate county ticket from
among their own people. and one that will
command the entire vote" The correspon-
dent adds:
The miners Of this county. if they are true
TO thtnseiSes, have 1t in their power to con-
troll the State and to rid the country at once
and forever from the power of this Ring"
which has crippled and cramped their ener-
gies; and If they fail. they have no one else
to blaine; and when, hereafter, because of
their own blindness, they find themselves in
the position Of serfs, they cannot say that they
ici WITHOUT warming Now Is their Opportu-
nifty for freedom, and if this chance is allowed
to escape they will never have another. This
Is not political issue. II the Republicans
win II Is not Republican victory; if they sue
cumb 1t Is not defeat; for il is not the party
that Is making the contest but those who
have stolen the guise Of the party to work
their own selfish ends. 1t is the old story of
the Iackass i'll the skin of the lion; he needs
but TO let his voice be heard TO have the fraud
detected. After the election, when the
Ring" people have gained the victory and
control the State, some very important
changes are to be made

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-03-24

before the opinions were deliUered, but
he was on it when the case was ar.
gued in conference, and when the
Judgment of affirmance or the Court
of Appeals of Kentucky, which had
decided the tender bad, was irrevoca-
bly, and perfectlyagreed on. And this,
in substance, is stated in the opinion
of the court as officially printed,
though not in others that l have seen.
While on the subject, and since I
have seen it stated that the decision
does not apply to interest which has
accrued since the legal tender acts, on
obligations given before them, and
that, under the decision, interest on
such obligations may be paid in paper,
l may take leave to add that the de-
cision did apply to interest just as
much as to principal. Part of the
tender made in the case was exactly
for interest-interest, l mean, which
had accrued after the passage of the
legal tender act. The Court of APP
peals made no distinction between
principal and interest, but held the
tender badin toto. Andso the Supreme
Court held it." q
MI. Wallace asserts positively that
the decision applies to the interest as
well as the principal of debts created
before the passage Of the legal tender
act. Now if this is the state of the
case, the law of the land must be
complied with, and everyone may as
well prepare to face the fact. Then
comes up next the great question,
What does a receipt mean ?" Is ii
conclusive against past payment, or is
it merely a minute or memorandum
of a certain amount of money having
passed between two parties?

saVsd from the Pirate,
From the Boston Traveller

From the Boston Traveller.l
A gentleman who is now a resident
of East Boston, states that after an
unsuccessful sojOurn in California of
several years, he took passage in a
bark bound I'd New York. She
touched at Panama for provi-
siOns and water, and having procured
these, her Captain proposed to sail the
next day. That evening the gentle
man wrote letters to his friends sta
ting that they might expect him home
in three months. AT the usual time
he retired to. bed and fell asleep, but
about an hour afterward found him
self on deck fully dressed. He was
somewhat startled, but attributing it
to fit of sOmnambulism, after taking
a turn or two, fore and aft, and ex-
changing a few remarks with the man
who had the anchor watch, again I'M
dressed and went to bed.
Imagine his surprise when he again
found himself On the deck, dressed as
before. Thrice he went to bed, and
thrice he found himself on deck. AS
he had never before experienced any
kind of somnambulism, and was an
uncOmpromising teetOtaler, he began
to reflect whether there was not some
thing supernatural in this new and
strange experience; and he immedi-
ately made up his mind that he
would not proceed in the vessel, but
20 home across the Isthmus of Pana-
ma. With this thought In his mind
he turned in the fourth time and
dreamed he had decided rightly.
Much TO the regret of the captain, who
had been very kind to him, and who
expressed an ardent desire to enjoy
his company, he left the vessel and ar
rived at home in safety.
A few months later he learned from
the newspapers that the bark had
been captured by pirates in the Straits
of Magellan, and that all hands but
n boy had been murdered by pi-
rates. The boy concealed himself be-
low while the pirates were killing the
rest of the crew, and after undergoing
great peril, succeeded in reaching Val
paraisO. This led the gentleman to
recur to the date of his experience on
board of the vessel at Panama, and
after relating the story to his parents,
they told him that in company with
some piOus friends they had made
him the subject of special prayer that
evening, and they regarded his leav-
ing the vessel and his return home as
answer to their prayer.

IF Cincinnati had expended two
millions in ~perfecting its Southern
railroad system ten years ago, it would
not be reduced to the pitiable neces-
sity, at this hour, of begging Ken
lucky for the right of way for a colossal
road across that State. Kentucky, de-
nying the boon, Cincinnati has re-
course to usurped powers Of Congress,
and must spend half a million in or
der to have an opportunity to expend
ten millions. Memphis, when too
late, may find herself hedged in by
railways as effectually on the western
as the eastern side of the Mississippi,
and then the city's anxiety will be as
boundless for escape from meshes that
railway builders draw about US as that
now evinced by Cincinnati to overlap
the network of highways woven by
the energy and enterprise of Louis
vile. Cincinnati imagined vainly
that such was the number of lines,
from the north, west and east, con-
verging at that point, that all South
ern roads would be drawn rhither by
an irresistible law of commercial
forces. PorkopOlis finds itself, as
Memphis may, with reference to west
ern roads, grisvously mistaken.
Louisville and Kentucky intervene to
play the part which Helena and Ar
kansas may ~re-snact. Cincinnati sheds
lard-oil tears in vain. Kentucky is
memorable, even as the Kansas City
road may be, by Arkansas inexorably
diverted to Helena.

LAST week a meeting Of the South

at Columbia, which was largely at
tended. The following resolutions
were passed.
l.. ReSOlred, That this Conference re-
cognizes the legal right of all the citi-
zens of the State, irrespective of color,
to suffrage.
.. ReSOiCed, That this Conference
recognizes the legal right of all of the
citizens of the State, irrespective of
color or previous condition, to hold
ofhce-subject alone to personal quail
fication and fitness.
3. ReSOJred, That in the Judgment of
this Conference, a convention of the
people of the State, opposed to Radi-
calism and in favor of good and hon
est government, should be held in the
city of Columbia, at some convenient
time, for the purpose of nominating a
State ticket, which, while assuring
equal and exact justice to all, will
afford some degree Of security, pros
perity and good government.
4. Resolved, That this Conference
respectfully suggests to the people of
the State Wednesday, the 10Th Of June,
ensuing, as a suitable time for holding
said convention.

views embody the views of the
members Of the press generally.
