Our Sentiments.

Most Of the readers of the BULLETIN
are arrised of the fact that number of
Americans made perfect asses Of them
selves over the arrival, several years ago,
Of the Prince of Wales in this country.
A repetition of the same thing is now GO
ing on, this time Young Russian Bear
in the shape Of Prince Alexis, being the
adored Politically Americans cry
''down with crowns and mOnarehs," but
privately, and even by communities, they
viii buE around a royal stripping like
blus-bottle flies over the remains of de.
funct pig in August In noticing the ar
rival of Alexis the Memphis Public
Ledger says:
Now comes royalty. The little Rus
sian Prince, called Alexis. hiss arrived on
the Northern shores- We say Northern
shores, because We cannot we'll say our
shores. And now comes the usual
amount of toRdyism, hunkeyism, and all
other isms that have for years Disguised
the civilized world Respectable old
fellows, with gold-headed canes and more
silk stovepipes than brains, and more as
suranee than manners, will come the
Turvydrop over the little heir of the Rus
sian crown. Mothers, if not in Israel,
at least in fashion, will lead their daugh~
ters forth to fascinate and capture him
These daughters do not see how their
charms can be resisted. And so they 20
forth, with diamonds for small arms and
smiles for artillery, to conquer. When
they flash those brilliants in the face %
sstonished royalty, and touch those swift
keys that lie concealed beneath a sunrise
of smiles and bushes, the enemy will cry
out for peace. Our Southern bellies will
have no part to play in this comedy. The
big bugs of the other side Of the water
do not come South. They are left out,
for we have been 80 traduced, robbed and
desolated as to make an impression on
tbe minds Of distinguished strangers that
there is nothing in the South TO see ex'
cept ignorant negroes and white barbara
ans. After turning New York into a la
matte asylum, the sprout of royalty will
visit the White House to see what mans
her or man the head of the great rcpub-
lie IT, Then the two will embrace, for
our little ruler is royal, all but in name.
Grant will show Alexis ali the attention
his uncouth manners can suggest. He
will feast him and earsss him at the same
instant that he is hunting down the peo.
PIE Of the SOutb. Splendid chambers for
one and every delicacy that the market
affords, bnt dungeons for the others. The
result of the whole will be, as it should
that while the bellies are Overwhelming
him with their charms, and the Presi
dent is stufhng him, he will be laughing
in his sleeve at them. But the infiction
must be endured. 1t is the fate of roy
atty.

Trying to Do Too Many Things at
Once.

From special dispatch to tho New
York EUenfng Post, dated Washington,
November %, We learn that the star of
General Schenck, which has heretofore
doomed up so brightly, is now growing
quite dim, and about 70 flicker" entirely
The dispatch says;
The action of General Schenck in ao-
eepting the dictatorship of speculative
mining company has attracted much
attention here IN Governments circles,
and is likely to be subject of Cabinet
consideration at any day A prominent
Cabinet minister, in talking about It this
morning, expressed surprise at General
Schenck's conduct, and said it was queer
that he would do an act Of this kind
Among well informed diplomatists the act
is spoken of as disgraceful and unbecon-
ing to any foreign representative. What
Is regarded as very singular about the
transaction isthat it is in direct violation
Of the regulations of the State Depart
ment forbidding foreign ministers OF this
Government from engaging in any com
mercial speculations whatever Mr..
Schenck's recall sis considered as almost
certain to follow.

Representative Harris, of Shelby
county, has bill before the House which
provides for the exemption from taxes for
seven years, of manufacturers. Pros
gressive measures have been advocated
by cur Representatives, and THE, for the
encouragement of the manufacturing in-
terests, deserves the support of the
House. Perhaps seven years is to long,
and would be objected to by the other in
terests Of the State which are taxed
ADdldHcAe
Not bit too long. Tennesseeans
should do their utmost to encourage
manufacturing. We hope Ar. Harris
bill will become Law.
