Forests that once lined the banks Of the
river, and its tributaries, are swept away
by the misunderstanding tide Of pro-
gressive populations; cities, villages
and States are born; pools and lakes,
once protected from the sunbeams by
densely growing trees and canebEakes,
are now exposed to the action of solar
heat, and the winds sweep away the ris-
ing mists and the plowed fields drink
the moisture as It falls from the
clouds. The river is robbed Of its bever-
age, its channel is filed up, and
it shrinks into nothingness. 1t is ma
j;estic, and its grandeur impressive, even
in its withered, shrunken, old age, and
we should stand reverently, and look
pityingly upon its frozen body this morn
ing, when the sunbesms illumine its
crystal-deeked bosom, with countless
gorgeous glittering hues. And, since
this is joyous day, may we not, when
contemplating the littleness of the
Father Of Floods, be pard0ned for re-
.currence to the Auacreontie verse:
Behold when Mother Earth Is dry
she drinks the droppings OF the sky,
And then the dewy cordial gives
TO every thirsty plant that lives;
The moon too Quaffs her paly stream
OF luster from the Solar beam.
The vapOrs which 81 evening weep
Are beverage 70 the mighty deep
Away with all your sober thinkinRs
II natures holy law be drinking,
/ n make the laws Of nature mine,
And pledge the universe In wine.

airy TO the financial sagacity of the
Finance Committee of the Board.
Certainly, it is anything but satisfactory
to the taxpayers. Owing to the mise
rablem that Mayor Johnson has made
Of the city's finances, the Board Of
School Visitors have found it impossible
to negotiate the bonds issued
TO them at anything like
a fair price. Whenever they attempted
to do so the first question asked was,
"Who guarantees these bonds and the
payment Of the interest on them?n The
answer being ''The city," refusal to
touch them, save at ruinOus rates, was
the result. The doubt which hangs over
them, and which a special committee
has been raised to clear up, enforced the
views Of the mOney-lenders, and from
ten they advanced their demands sto
eighteen per cent. Like sensible men,
they increased their percentage Of gains
or profits in proportion to the risks they
ran Of ''getting their money back" This
risk is not less than the APPEAL stated
it. Mr.. Kertrecht, a lawyer Of
ability, and long member of the
board, admitted a doubt Of the
validity Of these bonds when he urged
upon his fellOW-members, on Monday
night, that it would be better to have a
vote of the people, in accordance with
the constitution, than TO attempt to nego-
late them without. Coming from so
sagaeiOus and practical head as his,
this was tantamount to an admission Of
the position Of the APPEAL, which has
been taken with no other view than that
Of protecting the interests Of the people
who look 70 US 10 watch and work for
Them in all matters affecting their pub
lie affairs. We await the report of the
special committee as to the validity Of
he school bonds.

THE MIasIssIPRI THIS MORNING-A
FREE SHOW

Every one should see the river this
morning. Only once or twice in Life
time does it happen that the Mississippi,
81 Memphis, has floating bridge Of ice.
Just now It Is hardly safe for footmen.
Nobody has crossed upon it, and proba-
bly, no one will have. the hardihoOd to
sttempt the passage. The feat might be
accomplished, and viii be, in safety. il
the temperature Of the atmosphere re-
main unchanged through another
twenty-four hours. But there is a share
Of sublimity in the extraordinary aspect
Of the majestic river. The vastness Of
the mighty volume Of ice crashing, and
breaking and roaring as it sweeps down
toward kindlier elimes than this, strikes
the behol6ef, unused to the marvellous
deeds Of the ice-king, with smazement.
Il Is the terrible force exerted, and the
majesty Of the great volume Of ice, and
the steady, resistless movement OF the
rugged surface, and the sullen roar,
that invest every aspect Of the mighty
river with grandeur and subIimity.
There Is less water in the channel than
ever before at this season of the year,
aud the current is swifter, and the blocks
ofic are driven against one another
with dreadful force. It is a grand show
frOm the bluff, worth infinitely
more, and is infinitely more impressive,
than any exhibition Of wonders ever
conceived even by the genius Of Bar
mum. It is sad to reflect that as the
great riyer grows older lis body and
limbs are lessened, and wither into
nothingness. We, who contempla ed
its magnitude years ago, when the low
lands were spsrsely populated, and the
river, ninety feet deep and q mile wide,
vss 8 veriUsble finland sea, as it may
nevermore become, can never forget
how maiestically it moved its tremen-
dous volume q turbid waters. Then
Memphis, ia iAfaEtils glee, first saw its
own smiling face Swallowed in the depths
Of tie mighty arm Of the sea, creative
and significant Of the coming
greatness o. cities along its shores.

nothing is done to assure the extension
Of the DuvalPs Bluff, Camden ans
Shreveport road to its terminus on Re-
lriver. There are grand schemes on pape
talked about on every hand. The low
lands, it is true, hsve been bridged at {
cost Of sixty or seventy thousand dollari
per mile, and yet, with all this mighty
task achieved, the great practical ends
sought are as remote as ever. There are
charters and roads on paper by the score,
and yet no aid is given those who actu-
ally put their shoulders to the wheel
Of progress, indulge no grand
speculative schemes, and seek to
make Memphis great and Arkansas
the richest of Southern States.
Since Shreveport is connected, with the
gulf, and the wealth of Southern and
Central Texas is made accessible, some
practical action should be adopted to
extend road from Memphis 20 Shreve-
port and Jefferson. The Little Rock
road has cost twice as much as its or g
inal projectors contemplated, and it is
enough if its present owners give this
city perfect highway to Little Rock.
Memphis is the gamer though SIX hum

dian territory west Of Arkansas, and so
with the road coming down from Fort
Scott and Kansas City. All these sweep
wealth and trade away from Memphis,
aud leave US in the midst of a little oasis |

bate on the bill authorizing him to construct
ten vessels Of var. HIS last report was charac-
terized as extremely and disreputab1y void Of
information, without which Congressman
could form no intelligent opinion On naval mat
ters. Both tho employees and the politics Of the
na7y-yards needed to be reformed. Money pre-
viously appropriated by Congress had been
wasted on worthless vessels, 471 Of which had
been sold in five years, in some cases to the low
est bidder; similar fate might, within a
twelvemonth, befal the vessels ordered by
the pending bill. Mr. Kerr thought
tho country needed, before o great naval
establishment, o reform Of the scan-
dalous laws hampering our entercourse with
foreign nations, and preventing the natural
growth of great commercial navy. Under the op-
Grafton Of the previous question: the bill was finally
passed with amendments, reducing the number
OF vessels to Eix, ordering that three OF them be
