forever Of horse.jockeys and gift-tskers,
like Grant, c~srpet-bsggsrs like Ames OF

Ike those OF the Radical government Of

nepotism in every form. That inespsbles
and third rate men srs TO lesrn that they
cannot bolster themselves by family
interests, indeed that "family" business
in politics is plsysd out, and that gener-
ally, hereafter, fitness and honesty viii be
the requisites in candidates for official po-
siEion. In other words, that men like
John johnson are to be selected snd
elected. Mere psrtizsnshiP has well nigh
ruined the country and devotion to men
instead Of measures has entailsd cur load

suppose That Tennessee should induce
100000 emigrsnts to settle on her vacant

estimste, this would increase the wealth
Of the State about as follows: 100, 600 at
SLIPS apiece as developing labor, SIP. $780,
0OO. They would bring on an average
500 esch, amounting to $40, 0OO, 900 in

value, as increase in value of real estate,

Nh. HENRY THEODORE TUCKERMAN
died at his residence, in New York city,
on Sunday last. The announcement,
which reached Es some days sgo by tele-
grspb, viii everywhere be received with
sincere regret, for Nh. Tuckermsn, as the
New York Evening Post well says, was as
warmly esteemed and his writings as
highly valued in the Southern States as
in New England or the West. We have the
same high authority for the assertion that
Mr.. Tuekermsn was q man of letters in
the best sense of that term; learned with
out pedsntry, refined without sffectstion,
pursuing his vocation consistently and
conscientiously, with honor to himself
and credit to the literature Of the coun-
try. Though he had lived much abroad,
especially in Italy, for whose scenery,
TT additions, poetry and people he betrayed
a peculiar fondness, Mr.. Tucksrman was
distinetively American, proud Of the
past and hopeful Of the future, and strove
in all that he wrote to elevate the Taste
and inspire the hearts of his country
men. He was, indeed, what the title of one
of his books pointed him out, an optimist.
and his confidence in the proper working
Of our political institutions and the
wholesome ordering of q social life was
as strong as his belief in the future intel
lectusI progress of America for which be
lsbored. He was YOluminous, but mover
careless, and his style was remarkable for
its hsxibility, purity and grace. In pri-
vste life he was most estimsble, and he
enjoyed in q high degree the respect and
attachment of his contemporaries in su-
thorship. With su the most eminent
American wrisers Of his tine, his relations
were intimate, He VIII be long remem-
bered as the ripe scholar and the amisbIe
gentleman, and the lsbors Of his life will
pass into the literary history of the land.

wish them success in their various enter
prises. We hope that the road to Bolivar
may DO extended to the Tennessee river,
and thence through Middle Tennessee,
either by way of Lswrenceburg and Pu-
lsski, or By Columbia. Whether this viii
be done by the company owning the road
from Bolivar to Memphis, or by another
company, it is for the parties interested to
determine.
There should be no conflict betlFeen the
Memphis and Jackson and the Memphis
and Bolivar airline railroad compa-
MES. They should act IN harmony. In
This way these roads will sooner meet with
success, and secure assistance from this
city and county. There will be no county
aid given to either company until the
roads are consolidated between Memphis
and SomerYiIls. Memphis would haYe
and Jackson meet at Somsrville.
This done, the task Of completion is easy.
