Gen. Stokes has been in many respects,
the most obnoxious man to the Democ-
racy Of Tennessee who could have been
named by the President for position in
this State, yet, in some respects he is the
man who commands most respect from
the people Of Tennessee. He, more than
any other, seems to strike straight out
from the shoulder, and that is what the
Tennessee people like, as Gen. Stokes
knows. The ante bellum rule of the
jackson State, was neither to give nor
ask q favor. We go according to that
rule now. fGen. Stokes does not UNI
derstand it, he will before he has occu-
pied his present positiohTer long. We
will do nm Justice in his official capac-
ity every time. We only ask, and viii
demand, that he shall do the people of
Tennessee the same every time, We
will see what we Will see. Gen. Stokes
is a bold man. We have always found
him such. He will find in us a due APP
probation of his regard for the people of

To the Hon. Il, Il. Butler, Chairman
Reconstruction Committed Washing
ton, District Of Columbia
DEAR SIR The undersigned would
respectfully represent to you and your
committee, and through that medium
make known to Congress, that the I'm
ion people OF Tennessee are in a helpless
and deplorable condition.
Many Of us have persistently opposed
any further effort at reconstruction, hay
ing been willing to await results before
asking Federal intervention but we are
now constrained to appeal to you for
protection in the enjoyment of that lib
erty which is regulated by law.
Under the present state of affairs we
are completely under the control and at
the mercy of the enemies of the Govern
ment. We yielded to the usuipation Of
the Legislative branch of the State gov
ernm6nt VIZ quietly submitted to the
forced adoption OF an odious instrument
dignifed by the name Of constitution /;
we witnessed tie overthrow of the State
government, the displacement of its reg
ular constituti6nally chosen officers, in
Guiding the judiciary. This was all APP
palling, but we trusted in the wisdom,
if not in the patriotism of the judicial
department of the government. We re-
lied on the good sense of the new rulers
In all this we have been disappointed.
We hare seen the Supreme Court or
gNnized in defiance of the national con-
stitution. 1t has proclaimed the confed-
eracy a nation, a government de facto /;
it has turned Union men out Of court
and justifedrebel in robbery and crime;
it has established doctrines which, if
permitted to become the settled law of
the State, will ultimate in making trea-
son honorable and loyalty odious. The
law officer of tie State, the Attorney
General, has already caused several
thousand dollars Ct the rebel war dobt
to be paid, Notwithstanding the United
States constitution expressly prohibits
the act. '' ..
The Legislature is purposing to pro
vide pensions for the rebel soldiers in
the shape OF artificial limbs. Ameasure
is pending to reimburse certain rebels
for Judgments recovered against them in
the Federal courts for their tolls in be-
half Of rebellion. In fact, the rebellion
reigps in this State. We are neither
protected in life or property. Many of
our best men are trying to dispose OF
THEN property and leave the State,
We, therefore, earnestly invoke such
protection as Congress may deemjust
and calculated to meet the demands of
the Union-loving people of this State.
Weclose by adding that we represent
ninoty-nine hundredths, if not the entire
sentiment, Of the Republicans and Union
men OF East Tennessee,

Synopsis Of the Report Of the Special Com.
nissiener-The Great Influx Of Fsrsisnsrs-
Permanent Suggestions for Taking Better
Care Of Them.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4, 1871.
Mr.. J. Frederick Myers, OF tho Secretary OF tho
Treasury's offcc, some time ago. under Official
instructions. proceeded TO Great Britain and Ger
many and subsequently to New York to investigate
the subject OF immigration and the proper transpor
taton OF Immigrants TO and within the United
States. In report as the basis OF greater govern
mental care and urther legislation, he places the
fact that the immigration movement, TO the
average number OF 100000 souls per annum,
Is not temporary. scarcely nuctuating, but per-
mancnt ana the number may reach 100000 for the
next twenty years. This colossal, yet peaceful,
peoples movement, which changes the very charac-
ter OF the American nation, should become the
subject OF carefully maturcd Legislation. He has been
greatly gratihed In finding that the vast masses or
immigrants are composed Of the best and most
enterprslng farmers, mechanics and laborers. II Is
true the great majority arc not rioh nor do they
belong 70 the professional classes but they gener
ally possess some means, estimated at an average

desire Of the metropolitan public for
italian opera ID 30 great that . single
prima donna crowds the Academy OF
Music night after night, what would be the
result if this prima donna were supported by
company worthy of her? Mr.. Wallack is not
contented with star or two in his company,
but ne has constellation of them. Here lies
the secret of his unvarying success and the
cause OF former failures in opera. Every one
in an operatic company, no matter how humble
the position, should know how to sing and act,
aud the tenor, in particular, should be true,
reliable artist. The leader of the orchestra,
Whe occupies as responsible q position

. musician Of the highest attainments
II is in his power, at all times, to
ruin performance. But the weakest feature
In opera here is the mise en- scene. Swiss
village, with the Alps in the distance, does
duty for Richmond Fair, in Martha, and a
score OF other places equally removed from
Mount Blanc. The absurdity Of the scenery
10 some Of the operas presented at the Acad-
envy is about the same as if Lake Como, with
st. Paul's, porcelain tower, and the Pyra-
mids in the distance were to represent Central
Park. There is no excuse for this-not the
slightest. If one of the dramatic managers
should be guilty OF such an outrage
on common sense his audience would rise and
leave the theatre in disgust. We offer these
remarks with q view to arouse operatic
managers to sense Of their duties. The pub
lie have shown again and again their willing
ness to second the efforts of an impresario,
but it is only their right to demand the fulfil
ment of managerial promises and the presenta-
ton of operas In complete style. It does not
make the slightest difference who undertakes
opera here, the public care not whether it is
Mr.. Smith or Mr.. Brown; but as long as the
manager gives us opera as it should be given
he will receive the hearty support of the
people Of New York. Italian opera is the
favorite protfgf of wealth and fashion here,
pnd is deserving of such encouragement, as it
is the highest and most intellectual form of

Prince Bismnrclk's Speech-War Indications
and Preparations.
The world has learned to attach importance
10 the nttcrances of Prince Bismarck on Eu-
Topean affairs. He, more than any other
nan, can maintain the peace Of Europe or
make war. We know, too, that his words,
whether indicating peace or war, have pro-
found Significance. Our telegram from
Berlin, published yesterday, shows that in
the debate on the War Fund bill in
the Reichstag Bismarck impressed upon
She members the necessity Of Strengthening
fhe country and empowering the Emperor to
act promptly in view Of the present aspect Of
European affairs. These words, qualified as
}hey are by cautious argument that Ger
many only wants to be prepared for possibl
contingencies, have q menacing look. If we
mistake not they will create great uneasiness
In Europe. Bismarck told the Reichstag that
The Emperor William should be left un-
1hackled so as to be in position to act either
upon the offensive or defensive, and the
Reichstag passed the bill for that purpose.
True, this astute statesman might have acted
JQu6 Wttu tuc OUJcCt Va uVcItiuB war; Dut
he will hardly stop short of the
end he has in view, the consolidation
of all the German race or German speaking
people in one empire, now that he has the
power and the condition Of Europe is so favor
lbIe. 1t is barely possible he might attain
this without war, but not at all probable.
There are Germans in the Russian empire
hnd Germans in the Austrian empire. Which
Hoes he want frst2 Which Of these empires
1s he likely to be allied with to despoil the
bther? And what are the conditions and
compensation he would offer? The question
opens wide field for conjecture. 1t is evil
dent that Europe rests upon volcano that
may any day involve nearly the whole Contl-
nent in war. The map Of Europe may be
reconstructed within year or two. Nor are
8he questions of territorial readjustment aud
feconstitution of governments by race or
Nationality the only ones that may lead the
Gymnastics to war, That may be deemed desir-
Able 10 divert the masses rom the political
Ind social movements which the International
society and other societies have inaugurated.
Bismarck's words sound like the first murmur-
ing of a terrible storm. Hcuceforth the news
from Europe will be anyiously looked for.
Ehe fate Of empires appears to be trembling in
3he scales of destiny.
