In Richmond few days ago there was a
reunion of the Army of Northern Virginia
TO which jefferson Davis sent the following
letter;
MEMPHIS TESS., 9ist On,ober, ts79
GEN. FtTzHuGH LEE-My Dear Sir l regret
that II will not DO practicable for me to be
present at the annual meeting OF the soldiers
and sailors OF Virginia. Proud Of their deeds,
and ever confident In the Justice Of the cause
for which they battipd with so much Of gallantry,
fJrtitude and patriotism, | ain glad that the
survivors are annually TO assemble and keep
green 10 their memory the events in which they
acted.
with sincere regard and esteem, am your
friend, JEFFERSON DAVIS.
So Mr.. Davis Is stIll confident in the jus
lice Of the cause" Is this what the South
means when she declares that she accepts
the situationi" Is this the meaning of the
Baltimore Endorsement
1t Is really pity that Mr.. Davis Is not am
nestled, Is not permitted to again come back to
the United stItes Senate, to again go into tho
War Department under Mr.. GreolCys admin
istratlon. There his words stand, glorying
in his treason, iusolontly proclalmIng that he
was right, the South right, aud the army of
Northern Virginia, who will all vote for Mr..
Greeley, applaud the sentiment.

TEENEssEE.BANK NOTES.

The papers are now discussing the va
riOus subjects which, in their opinion, the
Governor ought to include in his procla-
nation for an extra session of the General
Assembly, as fit subjects for legislation.
We have question which we wish to sub
NIT for his consideration, and II is one of
vital importance to our Commonwealth,
in her present impoverished financial con-
ditiOn.
Many people believe, and not without
reason, that the tax collectors in some of
the counties are constantly swindling the
State, by paying Tennessee money In the
treasury when they have received current
funds from the tax payers. We have
heard of tax collector in one of the
wealthiest counties of the State presenting
his quarterly report, from which it APP
peared that not a single individual had
paid his or her taxes In current funds
This may or may not have been true. We
understand that at least one of the tax
payers OF the county, who happened to be
In the Treasurer's Office, and who saw the
report, claims to have paid his State taxes
in greenbacks. Many counties present re-
ports, perhaps not exactly similar to this
but showing a very small amount of cur
rent funds. Would it not be well to have
some additional legislation on this subject?
We cannot tell what legislation is required,
but il the Treasurer was called upon, we
have no doubt but that he could furnish
information in regard to this matter, which
would warrant the Legislature in investi-
eating the reports of tax collectors. There Is
certainly screw loose somewhere, in the
management of Tennessee Bank issues in
connection with the taxes, and the matter
requires attention.

CHURCH AGGREssIoNs IN NEW YORK

Father Stacks, of Williamsport, Pa,
has recently had prolonged contest in
the courts and by correspondence with
Bishop O'Hara growing out of the denial
on the part of the first named to the right
Of the Bishop TO remove him from his
charge while his congregation desired him
TO remain. The civil courts have held for
the Father and given him possession of
his church property.
HdrpcrS Weekly noticing the case ha.
an elaborate article upon recent legislation
by the New York Legislature, vesting the
clergy of the Catholic Church with powers
and privileges altogether new in our legis-
lation. Upon this subject it says:
During the rigorous rule which the ROmish
priesthood have been enabled TO exercise for
many years over the legislation of New York
law was passed that might well have startled
an Austrian emperor or q papal king. The
whole property Of the RoInish Church was
taken forever from the hands Of the people
and transferred to the clergy. No Catholic con
gregstion has any longer any right TO the con-
troll Of the church building it has paid for. or
the school-houses and the lands it has provided
for its own use; a board of trustees, composed
Of the bishop, two priests and two laymen ap
pointed yearly BY The clergy is only empower
Gus corporations. we believe that in every oth-
or State some provision is made that they
shall remain republican in form of govern
hent Inc peO' Ie are empowered TO manage their
affairs: the members Of every congregation are
alone recognized in the eye Of the law. To sep
arste the clergy from the people, TO elevate them
into governing caste, TO place in their hands
the whole power and wealth of n denomination
possessed OF enormous resources, and a wide
control Of tho treasury of the city of New York,
was the act Of a corrupt or u timid Legislature
and should at once be removed from the stat ute
book il has forever dishonorcd No other re-
NgioLs sect, indeed, was ever so favored. or ever
preferred 50 presumptuOus a claim. Baptists.

The clergy With them have no more power in
financial affairs. or perhaps le S., than any MEM

or Episcopal priest has ever presumed to ussert
that the prepsrty e his Church belonged alone
TO his order. u,at the laity was an inferior and
ignorant Cas- e. IDht 10 be intrusted with the
care Of the possessions it had acquired by its

THE question Of the Alabama claims is
again likely to be one of the prominent
topics of discussion in political circles. John
Bull pretends to have discovered some
thing in the Washington Treaty that does
injustice TO him, and Chief Justice Cock
burn, as we are Informed by telegraph
has officially counseled the English Cabi-
net that England must recede Immediate
ly, leaving America to decide between q
new treaty or war" The London 2ymes
the "Thunderer' Of Europe, thunders iu
the chorus, evidently expecting to fright
en- some one on this side of the water, and
says that England must notify the Geneva
Arbitrators and the American Govern
ment that efforts at arbitration may as
well cease.
The American people will be surprised
to learn that such spirit predominates in
England, as it has been generally under
stood that the question growing out of the
depredations of the Alabama on Ameri-
can commerce were about to be peacefully
settled. But however much we would de-
plore war with England, we could never
think for one moment of giving up rights
merely because England is disposed to
growl. We always knew that John Bulls
pockctbook lay very near his soul, but
we had given him credit for bet
ter Judgment, than he would show, by
going to war with this country,
for the reason that we demand
only what has been agreed to by his au-
thorized agents or representatives. His
sober second thought will bring about a
hnf tor n Oh .1V.n 4.
the Yankee nation Is not disposed 10
scare at his threats, he may conclude to
come up like little man. and make
good his honest obligations,

WE give in our local columns the details
of the compromise of an important suit by
which forty-fve thousand acres of very
valuable mineral lands will soon be i'm
proved and opened for mining. This land
is near Knoxville and the prospective
speedy development of the minerals upon
it, is, therefore, of great interest to our
community. Mr.. Buckley is known to
some of our citizens. He is a gentleman
of fine business qualification, of enlarged
capital and is in a situation to. command
all the means necessary to make the most
of the very valuable property in which he is
now one-half owner. His accession to our
city will be one of the most valuable we
have made for years,
