a WASHINGTON dispatch says: Inter
e:ted parties have caused it to be teie-
e.raphed from this point that Senator
Trumbull will resign his seat in the Senate.
Those in the confidence of the Senator say
there is no truth in this statement whstev-
er. Mr.. Irumbnn will probably resign the
Craftsmanship Of the Judiciary Committee,
and thus not give the Senate rings chance
TO remove him.

Biographical Sketches of the Mem
beers of the Legislature.
ron

bers OF the Leersiatures
SENATOR LACEY.
Hon. Alfred T. Lacey, the Senator elect
from the Twenty-tifth Senatorial district,
(Shelby county, was born in Cape Girar-
deau county, Mo-, in the year 1921, where
he resided until the capture Of Memphis BY
the Federal troops, during the late war,
since which time he has been a prominent
merchant of that city. He served his ma
tive county in the General assembly Of Mis-
souri, for several sessions, acqultting him
self always with credit in that body, IN
which was Gen. Woodson, Judge Rollins,
Gov. B. Gratz Brown, Gen. F. P. Blair
and ex-senator George B Henderson. He
is at present director in the Memphis
and Paducah, Memphis and Little Rock,
and Mississippi and Tennessee Rail-
roads, as well as the Merchants
National Bank of Memphis. he was also
the originator of Inland Ports of Entry,
now universally regarded as one OF the
most important measures for inland ports
that has been made the subject of National
legislation, in the past few years, by thus
placing them on an equal footing with sea-
port cities. He is universally esteemed as
one Of the most liberal minded and public
spirited citizens of the great valley OF the
Mississippi. He was the almost unanimous
choice of Shelby coun y two years since for
Congress, and was only defeated in the con-
vention by changing the basis OF represent
alton, and in like manner was again de-
feated at the late Congressional Conven-
ton after having received within four
votes Of the required two-thirds
m jority upon numerous ballots, when he
withdrew bis name. He defeated in the
primary elections in Shelby County Col
Robt. F. Looney, Col. ". L. Duff, Col.
f. Fl. Logwood, Col. j. J. Du Bose, and
CDR. B. Somerville, as candidates for the
| G lngressional nomination of Shelby
| County, beating Col. Looney, his foremost
competitor, over one thousand votes. He
vsted and supported the Democratic ticket
in the recent election, without the erasure
of single name, and Notwithstanding il
was well known that he would do 50, his
name was used in his absencs from
the city, and placed in com
bnation ticket, made by citizens
without regard to party. Upon bis return
to the City of Memphis, he published
card in the city papers, stating that he wa
MT candidate and did not desire the posi-
ton. Notwithstanding this fact on the da,
of the election, he ran considerably ahea'
, of the Democratic ticket, and was electeC
BY nearly four thousand majority.
The merchants of Memphis feel highl.
gTatifed at having one of their numbel
with large legislative experience and vel
known conservatism to represent them il
, the General Assembly.
