Whatever others may have to say sbou'
Stanton, Chattanooga has no Just ground
of complaint. When he went there snG
began the construction Of his road, two
years ago, that place had only $1,000, OOt
worth of property. The town had been in
existence more than twenty years, and had
only reached that point. 1t then had only
one thousand voters. he has finished his
road, mourning an enormous floating debt,
But see what has been done for Chstts-
nOogsi It is now 3 city, having So, 900, 600
worth Of taxable property, and his year
there were thousand eight hundred
and twenty votersi The Nashville and
Chattanooga, the East Tennessee and
Virginia, and Western and Atlantic roads
did less for Chattanooga in fifteen years
than StsntOn's road in two years. Chat
tsnoOgs has reason TO rejoice that Stanton
discovered the spot. The Indictment
against Stanton at Montgomery was
qusshed q few days ago, and he proposes to
sell his road on condition that the fosting
debt-sums due the people along the
be paid. he opposes any sale
which will alone protect the State of
Alabama as mortgage. There is a ring,
it is rumored, seeking to buy the States
mortgage with the purpose Of providing
only for q few fortunate individuals
e1compsssed by the circumference Of this
ring.

A BIG IOR

The great scheme devised by g certain
Eastern ring for the construction of 6
ship-csnsl from Lske Erie 10 Lake Cham
plain, and so on to the hudson river, has
been scotched. A dispatch received from
Buffalo yesterday says that at a full meet
ing of the board of trade held Tuesday
morning, the special committee to whom
had been referred the subject of the pro-
posed commercial convention to be held
st Detroit on the 18th inst, submitted
g lengthy and interesting report, accom-
panied by 8 series of resolutions which
were unanimously adopted. The report
denounoes the proposed Niagara ship
canal as useless and unnecessary and if
completed would not tend to lessen the
cost Of transportation or cheaper the
price Of Western products to Eastern
consumers. It protests against q con-
gressionsl appropriation for the proposed
object in the present State national hnsn-
ces and because it would add greatly to
the commercial interest Of a foreign ma
ton at the expense of our own. 1t de-
clsres the Erie canal capable of filling all
the present requirements of commerce,
and that it is the cheapest, shortest, SAT-
est and most direct outlet for Western
commerce to the eastern States or Europe.
1t recommends the improving and cheap
ening Of transportation OF the Erie canal
so as to make it as near a free channel as
the superintsndenoe and repairs viii adj
init. Viewing the purpose proposed IS
sntsgonistic to the national and State
interests and savoring strongly Of foreign
influence, the board Of trade respectfully
sending delegates to the Detroit
c~ouyentiou.

CONVENTION YESTERDAY.

The convention held yesterday for the
purpose Of nominating q candidate for
mayor WAS as sad and mournful as q corr.
nsr's inquest. Colonel A. h. Douglass
dsrted at those who signed the call upon
Mayor johnson with all the venom of a
pointer snspping at q blue bottle-fy. He
was the lightning orator Of the show and
thought that we copied names to ill the
call on Mayor johnson from tombstones.
This may DO true, but it is certainly true
that the voluble gentleman has dug his
own political grave.
Our friend j. Il. L. Taylor, cspered about
the room like young goats over stable
roofs. Van Anderson's voice was for war,
while he seemed inclined TO do a distress
sing mount Of fatigue duty. Il. @
Young looked as grave Is a fat turkey on
Christnas eve, and across his heavy brow
was written, defeat. Altogether the CON
ventioE had the appearance o. men
doomed TO death, but ready to show an
unsppreoiating world they could die game
After some diminishing John s. Toof wss
elected sextOn-or in other. words nomi-
mated rs g candidate for mayor. The
eelGt with which his nomination was re-
ceiye by a dozen boot-heels, reminded
one Of the wild, half pagan revel held by
Byron and his friends over the funeral
pyre Of Shelley. Seriously we regret the
nomination Of Mr.. Toof, and hope for
his own sake he will decline to
it. John s. Toof is an hon.
Ored citizen, highly respected for
bis personal virtues, and we trust he will
not jeopsrdize his future promise, and
his present usefulness as a good
by becoming the forlorn hope of
! faction which has not the ghost OF q
ihsnce for success. Mr.. Toof would make
, worthy successor to Mayor johnson, but
here is nothingi in his character which
that be should supplant bis
qusl In efficiency and in the affections Of
he people. Mr.. Toof has all the elements
( popularity; is perhaps the strongest
nan that could have been brought for
Tsrd; but he and his friends viii learn

THE oOrTON TAX.

The New York Commercial Bulletin
referring to tbs suit before the United
State supreme court, by which 1t Il
sought to recover from the government
the sum of the unconstitutional cotton
tax, says shat the plsnters.or the specu-
Iators who have bought mp these planters
receipts for the tax, have no more right to
such restitution than AVE the holders OF
Confederate cotton bonds, payable ''six
months after the ratification of q treaty OF
peace with the United States" A tax
upon production invariably falls upon
consumption, and, whether it be just and
legal or not, no restitution is possible
when the articles on which such taxes are
levied and collected have passed into con-
sumption. Those who paid the tax in ques-
ton were those who bought for use or
wear the fabrics made from the cotton on
which the tax was collected, and to re-
fund to the planters the millions thus
conisosted, would be to pay them q
bounty 10 which they are in no respect
entitled. We hope this silly business of
memorializlng congress on this subject
viii be abandoned at once, and that the
New Orleans chamber Of commerce will
devote Its attention to matters which
promise more of bsneht to the people OF
the South. Whether just Dr. not, the
claim is one which cannot be allowed
without greater injustice to Taxpayers
than that Ger which it is proposed to make
amends by the restitution Of the cotton
tax to the planters"
