~ The Memphis papers call
loudly upon "the absent citizens
those who are absent from the pes
thence cursed city-with plenty of
money in their pockets, to send a
portion of their abundance, for the
relief of the sick and destitute at
home. The call is timely, peril
nent, and ought to be needed by
those who are at safe dista nce.-
We trust that not only the citizens
of Memphis, in our midst, but our
own citizens, who are so closely
identified by blood and business,
with that unfortunate city, will con-
tribute to their necessities, which
are so great and urgent.

country when official honesty was
the rule, and the want of it the ex-
ception. But, alas! how all this is
changed. If an honest govern
ment official, State or National, lie
found, he is classed among the rara
aris of the age, and it would be
worth a journey half across the
continent to see him. The last de-
velopment we notice, is the default

The PANIC.-For two weeks past
the country has been going thro'
the throws of a monetary panic,
and its effects have been wide
spread, and almost universal, in the
suspension of business, and a none
tary lock up. From all quarters
we hear the notes of cheer. and see
the expression of much more
hopeful future than could reasona-
bly, be looked for. One of the pos
sible good results of this disturb
ance may be-who knows but it
will be?-the resumption of specie
payments by the banks throughout
the country. Such q consumma-
ton is devoutly to be wished for,
but we fear hardly to be expected.

SUBSIDIES Denied.

The Legislature Of our State has fol-
lowed the example set by Iowa and
illinois, and undone the legislation by
which the property Of one man could
be voted away for the benefit OF an
other. In no case where such laws
have been tried has the result been
otherwise than disastrous, and yet
there Is howl in the localities that
have not had time to get into debt,
against the repeal Of the act. One en-
lightened journaleven argues that the
repeal is illegal, because "the legisla-
ture cannot pass a law impairing the
obligation of contracts" and contracts
have been made. In various places to
pay other peoples money, against
their will into the hands of railroad
companies, 1t does not seem to occur
to these people that such contract is
itself a violation Of every principle OF
Justice, and that as such, it is extreme
ly doubtful whether the courts will
sustain them. .eaamua BuH

THE amount OF bonds asked by the
combined Northern and Southern Pa
eific SyndicatesIis $l2O, ,OOO, 900. No one
pretends to believe that either one Of
these roads would be able to pay the
interest OH these bonds, and thus an
annual outlay of S7,2O0,0OO would be
added to the already burdensome ex-
penses ofthe Government. Who, with
an increasing public debt, and failing
resources staring Ms In the face, will be
foolhardy enough to give this immense
amount away? And yet under the
pressure Of . powerful lobby, and Sc
duced by the shining bribes, there are
numerous congressman who will for
get the interests of their constituents
and vote away the obligations of the
nation to the men who have already
through watered stock and fraudulent
banking, stolen millions of the peo-
ple's money. They will bear watching.
