CROAKERS.

The opposition journals are Just now in
s;sting that the disasters which have overtaken
q few of our bankers and great capitalists
must necessarily ovsrwhelm the whole peo-
PIE with ruin. And they insist that the
Rspublican party is responsible for the evil
which few have suffered, and which these
hirds Of evil omen predict - inevitable for
H. mas,es. They neither point out the
scrou heretofore commited BY the Repub-
lican party tending to produce these results,
nor do they design to indicate remedy. I,
would be no more ridiculous to blame the
Republican party for the presence of the
yellow fever in Memphis, or ior The bloody
nurrain among horned cattle.
