THE ESD OF IT.
MAYOR JOHEsoN vISDICATED.
THE LAST AND ONLY ROORBACE
gILEECED.

The appended letter, from one OF the
truest, boldest and fIfnkest of all the
citizsns o. Memphis, puts to rest finally
and forever the busy tongue of misoon-
ception, snd thus Of misrepresentation.
The witness is net only unimpeachsble,
but being direct party to the trsnsso-
Gon, perfectly legitimate as far as he was
concerned, be speaks of his own knoWl-
edge Of facts with which he was thor
oughly cozversant. BE uses no meaning
less phrases, evsdes nothing; but that no
injustice may be done, he voluntarily
makes his statement. In view of recent
publIcsfiors Colonel William B. Greenlaw
writes ss follows:
MEMPHIS, January !, 1872.
Editors Aypeol-As Mayor JohDsons name
hss been associated with the purchase OF the
coupons bought by NE Of the State in Marcn
last, deem it an act OF justice to him TO make
this statement. That he does not now and
never did at any time have any interest, either
directly or indirectly, in the purchase or profits
OF the Memphis city coupons bought by me on
March ., ISL, Of Edward z. PennSbake-, STATE
comptroller. and that although 1 offered him
an interest and proposed 10 furnish the money,
he promptly declined the offer; and all state
mspts snd rumors 70 the contrary denounce
as untrue and false in every particular.
Very respectfully,
WM. 3. GREENLAW.
Mayer johnson, when all this cock-and-
bull story about his participation in this
trade with Mr.. Comptroller Pennebzker
was published, at the close of the session
of tbs Legislature, telegraphed for copies
Of the testimony taken and of reports
msde upon the subject by committees.
Failing, in the con.usion that sttends
the dispersion Of such bodies, to secure
ths papers, the mayor sent q gentleman
70 Nashville TO obtain copies for publics-
tion. the papers were not to be foand,
the sseressry OF the senate was in Lsbs-
non, snd it was finally ascertsined that
Senstor Coulter, Of Gibson county, had
taken the pspers In the case to his home.
But this letter from Mr.. Greenlaw ZEN |

pie OF Memphis TO discharge q duty to

CONFEDERATE COTTON.
Cold Comfort for English Holders Of Con-

NEW YoEK, January 1.-The London
telegraph says, e0itorislly: 1--WE feel no
surprise at the announcement bom
Washington that the British and AIneri-
can commission mas declined to admit the
liability of the United States for debts
contracted by the COnfedeTstes. This de-
oision, of course, shuts out the claims ad-
vanced by the unfortunate holders of
Confederate cotton bonds. who have so
long sgitsted for something like re-
cc gnition OF the loan. Nothing else
WIS to be expected. Il does not at all
matter whether the bondholders or the
committee were right In the suspicious
which they expressed to Lord Granville,
that the rejection Of their demands was a
prssrrsngsd, tOFegOns conclusion. The
simple truth had bstter bs frankly sd-
mitled at once. It was absurd to sup
pose that the Americans would ever ad-
NIT such claim. We have only to put
ourselves in their position, and suppose an
analogous case. If 8 Fenian insur-
rection occurred in Ireland, and man
aged to msintsin Itself largely through
the pecuniary aid contributed by Ameri-
can sympRthizsrs, and if on the suppress
