Hon. George H. Pendleton.

The late handsome entertainment
of the Press of Tennessee by the
Hon. GEORGE III. PENDLEToN, of
which brief mention was made in our
last issue, was characteristic of him
and in keeping with his high -reputa-
ton for hospitality and appreciation
of Southern gentlemen. An inbred
gentleman himself, Mr.. PENDLEToN
unites with scholarly learning and
elevated craftsmanship those rare So
cial graces not often found in combi-
nation. 1t was doubtless a most
grateful pleasure to have at his table,
and shake by the hand press represen-
tatives Of State whose delegation al
the last National Democratic Conven'
ton were pleased to vote for him as
their candidate for the highest office
in the gift Of the American people
Mr.. PENDLEToN is a profound ant
gifted Statesman of whom the nation
may well be proud and whom The
Dem ocratic party will always delight
to honor. He is q noble type OF th'
American gentleman and Statesman

THE London Spectator, a prominent
English Liberal journal, in late ar
ticle severely oriticises the conduct of
the House OF Lords, and asserts that
this body, which should represent the
highest statecraft and maturest pru-
dence, is every year tempting and ir-
irtating the people into new agitation.
1t is asserted to be really hopeless to
look for conservative popular feeling
while the House 81 Lords cons
tinue to utter foolish threats as to
what changes it will make. or all the
present institutions in England it is
asserted, the House Of Lords is the
most dangerous and the most reyolu-
tionary, sinceif it does not substantial
ly agree with the general aim of the
people 1t can only be an incendiary
element in the Legislature. Nothing
is more certain, the Spectator says,
than that it is absolutely necessary to
reform the House Of Lords, and that
this action must be taken by the Con-
rather than by the Liberals.

DESIGNATION OF MIR. CAMP.

Maj. e. G. Camp rendered his resignation
as District Attorney for the Eastern Dis
trict Of Tennessee, on Saturday of last
week, and we presume it has been accept
ed. This settles question about which
the public has been excited for some time
past, and settles it in way as near salts
factory to all parties as it could well be
done. OF course, Governor Brownlow and
Mr.. Maynard could not afford to let the
matter rest, after asking for Mr.. Camps
removal. and by taking the course he has,
Mr.. Camp has avoided placing his personal
friends at Washington and elsewhere in
what might be an unpleasant situation
for them. The appointment of Judge
Andrews, as we have before said, will give
universal satisfaction.

LEG1sLATINa FOR KNOXVILLE.

The following bill has been introduced
in the Tennessee Legislature. 1t has
passed the House and has reached the
Senate:
A Bill to be entitled, An Act to Authorize
Mgnlclpal Corporations to change the time of
holding their elections
SECTION l. Be it enacted, &c. That it mas be
lawful for the legislative authority of any NUM-
clpal corporation in this State at any regular
session, to change by ordinance or enactment
the time of holding the election for Mayor
IN said corporation: Provided that such change
shall not IN any event postpone the time of cleo
ton more than forty days; and provided fur
ther, that no compensation shall be allowed
to, or drawn by, any Mayor or Alderman or
Councilman, for the time over which their
term of Office may be extended by such change;
and provided further that such change shall be
made at least ten days before the time establish
ed for the election, and not oftener, than once
in five years.
SEC. 2. Be it further enacted That no corpo-
ration in this State shall prohibit persons of the
age of twenty-one years from holding Office un-
der their charters, provided said persons are
otherwise eligible to said offices under the laws
of this State.
SEC g. That this Act take effect from and af-
ter It's passage, the public welfare requiring it.
This bill, it will be seen, is general in
us appucaIlOn, Dut IL originated TX KNOX
vile, and is intended to keep the present
City Board in Office for a few months long
er. Now we would like to ask why this
is so. Voters and taxpayers would like to
know what object is be gained by change
in the time of holding our municipal cleo
tiOns. Who will be benefited by the
change? How many citizens of Knox
vile knew that such thing was being
asked for? Is 1t for the benefit of the city,
or for the benefit of chosen feC that this
law is enacted? Men of all parties are in
terested in knowing something of the OBJ
ject. Men are always governed by some
motive, and this case is no exceptionto the
rule. Someone is interested. Who is it?
1t is intended to benefit some one Who is
it?
