THE city authorities swooped up.
on the "gay gambolicrs' again, and
yesterday thGy were before the
Mayor, who depleted their pockets
to the extent of $3.50.
The gamblers are a class of men
who do not look for the protection
OF law for their business. Though
they were arrested without u legal
warrant, they paid up promptly.
All plead guilty except one, who
without trial was sentenced to pay
1 fine, and wishing to appeal had
his bond fixed at 5000; not being
able TO raise which, lie paid his
fine.
Have not VIC got u jolly old May
or, who convicts without trial and
fixes a bond at $1,000 for IN offence
which (after conviction without
trial) is punished b. a fine of 500,
the appeal bond for which should
be $500, or double the amount OF
the penalty.
But what is TO become of the
$3.50?
Does it divide among the city
officials? Or does it 20 into the
pockets Of City Marshal Landon,
from whence no money ever return
ed?

TUESDAY, p R Il, 1870.

The 27TH.-In calling it to re-
membrance that the 9th of April,
the day Of our grand Firemen's cell
ebration, Is approaching rapidly,
we wish to state that the Yazoo
Fire Company will join our boys
on that festal occasion, and that
the courteous, the Incompatible
Parisot, will take II upon his gem
erous self to convey the YszOo
iiremen to and from our city. We
sincerely hope the high hopes of our
gallant and eli .sacrifcing men,
who so nobly devote themselves to
the public welfare Of this city by
their duties as firemen, may be
thoroughly carried out, through the
well-dirccted generosity Of our
citizens, Il is our boast that not a
better-in every sense better-set
Of tlremen than ours can be found
in any city In tie world. And
we'll stand by it.

Mn. EDIToR: Who Is this fellow
WHO has heretofore been writing in
your paper, abusing the gamblers?
Such a fellow ought, and would be,
if known, kicked off the sidewalk,
by every gentleman that he met.
What has he to do with the faro
dealers or other gamblers, he need
not loose his money il he has amy,
which is doubtful, unless he goes
and bets II of, and whose fault Is
it but his own? Then what right
has he to complain and urge upon
the community TO rise up and
drive them OF, and he would go so
far as to hang them ii they could
not be got clear of otherwise, as
they did In the dark and heathen-
ish days OF Vicksburg, an outrage
upon the rights of others, con-
demned by all liberal minded men
everywhere, aui should sink the
perpetrators into the lowest depths

should he not have the same right

not the gamblers bring q large
amount OF money TO the place ?
This they have to do in order ia
commence. Do they not spend II
freely? Are they not among the

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-09-29

PRUssIAN newspapers persistently
assert that the pending war was
wholly of French manufacture, and
since some one has asserted that the
APPEALS predictions are strongly
favorable to the French, we will give
the Prussian version of the whole
story. Berlin asserts that the old
King of Prussia shed tears when, on
his return from Ems, the dispatch an
nouncing the declaration of war by
France was handed to him; and many
witnessed the unaffected and fearful
emotion with which the helmeted old
warrior read his address at the open
ing of his Parliament in July last.
Prussia was becoming more pOpulOus,
more wealthy and more powerful, and
that was making war upon France,
just as the Free States of our Union,
as revealed by the census of 1860, were
making war upon the Slave States.
Having begun this war to main
tain a supremacy which every
Frenchman regards as a part of
his Iawfnl political inheritance, the
Germans insist that the question in
Yolved, running down with its roots
to the days of Charlemagne, shall
now be finally settled, that the peace
Of the world may never again be dis
turbed by it.
No German forgets that it is but a |
little over half a century since a !
French army, victorious in a war
certainly as unprovoked as this, and |
without its pretext, under the leader
ship of the present Emperor's uncle |
and model, marched into Berlin,
levied a contribution Of over five |
hundred million thalers upon its in
habitants, and issued from the royal |
palace two Of the most terrible de-
crees, from which Prussia has hardly
yet fully recovered-one proclaim
ing all English goods found |
in the country to belong to
his army, and the other directing all
the ports of the continent of Europe
to be closed to British commerce.
Neither do they forget that during
this raid he took from Potsdam the
sword Of the great Frederick and sent
it as a military trophy to Paris,
whence it has never returned; nor the
calumnies with which, in his official
bulletins, he persistently assailed
Queen Louise. All these wrongs of
the uncle, with Others of a more re-
cent date, have now to be expiated,
and if the German army is strong
enough to get to Paris, they insist that
it shall 90 there, capture the city, hold
1t, and define a code of laws and give
it proper government, or one from
which Prussia may apprehend no
to its future repose. Such is
the Prussian aspect Of the war.
