Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1874-10-17

WE copy from the Holly Springs
South an account Of the recent Iynching
Of prisoners, forcibly taken from the
jail Of that place by masked negro ma.
rsuders. 1t will be seen that although
this outrage occurred some days ago, no
steps have yet been taken to ar
rest OF punish those who committed
it, by either the State OF Federal au-
tnoIities, plain showing, as we take it,
that neither Attorney General Viii
hams nor Governor Ames care to neu-
trslize the mis-statements Of their party
organs, or dissppoint the Radical parti-
sans who are anxiously waiting for full
accounts OF southern outrages to be used
in the November elections. Were either
Of these WORTHLESS DESTROYS Of preserving
the peace ofthe country, they would days
since have set on foot at least some
inquiry into the committal Of an outrage
that is one-of the most fragrant we have
been called upon 10 chronicle. But tits
not peace they want, but partisan su-
premacy; and since, at the south, that
depends upon negro votes, they DO doubt
have come to the conclusion that it viii
not do 10 inquire too closely into this
last and worst Of the Outrages commit
ted by Radicals, either white or black.
AttOrney-GeneTsl Williams and Cover
nor Ames believe that this thing Of ex-
posing outrsges depends upon who are
and whether Radical inter-
ests are to be subserved by it. VIII not
our contemporaries Of Cincinnati, chi
cago, and New York, to whom we are
indebted for so many favoTs already,
call the attention Of their readers to this |
patent case Of Radical Temissness, to |
cali it by no hsrsher name?

DURING Mr.. Hans Lemons absence al
the State capital, engaged in business
differing widely from that which usual
~ takes gentlemen there, 70 his great
surprise he found himself nominated 10y
the dsrk-lantern, self-sppointed CON-
mittee Of disappointed politicians to
make the canvass for the Legislature
against the regular nominees Of the
Democratic party. This he repudiates
utterly and altogether. He is not can
didate for the legislature, but is candi-
date for all the wors his fellow citizens
Of Memphis can give him. Mr.. Lemon
is one Of the staunchest and irmest OF
Democrats, and viii support and vote
for all the nominees Of the party, and
when he goes to Nashville, as he will,
and soon, it will be TO leave his mark
there as one Of the first inventors OF
Memphis, and mechanic far above the
best. Concrete pavement as good as the
best stone and cheaper, is his style OF
business and not politics.

THE nARCH OF GENERALIZATION.
Smarting under Governor Browns
able and eloquent protest against the in
reference Of the Federal government
in matters which Tennessee alone had q
right 10 control, Acknowledgement Viii
liams makes an elaborate reply. Des-
p0.ism is never at a loss fer an excuse for
lis usurpatOns, and this government
official il prolific in his excuses for
Grants usurpations in Tennessee.
White men in this State have been az
rested, handcuied and dragged from
their families, and incarcerated in dun
geons under the leadership Of deputy
United States marshals. All this is
done when there is no obstruction to
the full execution Of the laws Of Ten
nessee or Of the United States, and
while the governor and host Of officers
are willing TO execute the law in every
nook and corner Of the State. There is
not 8 shadow OF pretext that the officers
or the people Of Tennessee are IN
willing or unable to enforce the law.
The action Of President Grant and the
letter Of Acknowledgement Williams
sustaining him, whilst disregarding the
manly protest Of John c. Brown, the
governor OF 5 sovereign State, Is the
strongest indication Of the growing
spirit OF Capitalization, which, if not
checked, viii take from the people all
power Of home government, all power
Of TennesseaEs to rule Tennessee. This
is a dangerous innovation. All good
citizens witness with regret the tenden-
oy toward Capitalization, because they
see, az Governor Brown has seen,
that it takes from the States the
power and right to govern Themselves.
Give the government, an ambitious
President and an Obsequious attorney

Ex-VICE-PREsIDENT Alexander h.
Stephens delivered a speech yesterday
before the. people OF Augusta of two
hours duration, during which he said
the passage Of the civil rights bill would
work great evil and destroy the public
school system in the south. President
Grant, he would do him the justice to
say, had done his duty. He had y OBJ
lection to a third term per Sc. He saw
no reason why a President who execut-
ed the laws faithfully should not be
elected for a third term if the people
desired it. BE had looked into the
Louisiana question, and saw no sense
in abusing President Grant. He
spoke hopefully Of the future of the re-
public, and advised his hearers to obey
the laws, suppress lawlessness, and to
be true to the constitution and Union as
established by our fathers. He pro-
claimed himself a JefeFsOnisn Demo-
crat, and had great faith in the triumph
of those principles.

II eapItal.movinr o. whic

THE eapital-moving folly, which orig.
mated at st. Louis, has broken out
afresh. This time the convention is to
be held at Louisville. A list OF
delegates from Tennessee has
been appointed thereto by Governor
Brown, which will be found elsewhere
in this issue Of the APPEAL. We pre-
sumo the governor made this list as an
act Of courtesy; for certainly he can
have no more idea Of the removal Of the
capital from Washington than that OF
Nashville to Memphis; aud Of the dele
gates appointed by him, we doubt that a
half dozen will attend. The people Of
the country at large, those Of Tennessee
especially, have just now other thingsof
more moment to them to attend to than
the removal Of the capital. Itiss vi
sionary scheme, not worthy serious at
tention. Were it otherwise, &c would
end in jobbery ami robbery to an extent
the very Imagination Of which makes
US shudder. We take no stock in the
removal Of the national capital.

THE late failures in New York nave
renewed the distrust Of business men,
and 8 degree of prudence and caution Is
understood to be governing their opera-
tons that is admirable. Only hint at 8
SPECULATION. and all Madison street
would blush and mutter shocking
with all the vigor Of an English old
maid in her woTsted stockings. The
most tempting thing that can be offered
would not win q bid in all the circum-
ference and diameter OF our financial
circles. Calamity has instructed Us in
wisdom, and we are walking in the safe
paths of simplicity and virtue. Gar
from Us ali gambling investments, al
speculative ventures, and all at
tempts TO gain sudden wealth. +"
Such is the last petition in the
litany Of those who have been brought
from crooked ways into straight paths,
by the terrors Of the panic OF one year
ago. That all temptation to indulge in
speculative bonds, stocks or scrips, is pi-
ously repelled in our city, the daily re-
ports Of our commercial editor make ev-
ident. Such being the case, judge Of
our surprise on discovering the follow
ing in the cotton article Of the New
York Bulletin of October 18th. The
writer is reporting on buying futures,
and he says:
A good many OF the orders filled nave been
on southern account, with large proportion
OF the buyers from the Tennessee and Ken
lucky districts, especially that portion gLiec Cd
by he drought. operators ideas appear TO
have been based upon the belief thai the
damage done in their section extends over
the entire cotton belt, and that the shOrt-crOp
theory, to which some OF the frst-class cotton
10 be correct, the present fall receipts being
an evidence OF earlier ripening OF bolls which
have luckily escaped injury.
Saints on Madison street, but sinners
in New York We understand "the
little game" now. There was a good
deal of speculation last year on the the
DRY that cotton wss rushing market
premsturely, and would exhaust itself.
That theory was less popular in March
than during the preceding November,
and there were hints Of people hsYing
burned their ibgers-we suppose the
culture" folks know better this year,
and are sure Of fortune.

TIE Little Rock Gazette quotes from
section II Of the schedule 10 the new
constitution of Arkansas to remind its
readers that that instrument makes il
the duty of the State board Of election
supervisors, upon sscertsining that a
NJ sjOrity of votes have been cast for the
adoption Of the constitution, to make
publication OF the fact in two Little
Rock newspapers, and the constitution
becomes in force from the date of such
proclamation. By the same section,
the State board is required to certify to
each house of the general assembly a
list of its members, and to deliver to
the speaker OF the house an abstract OF
all votes cast for governor and other
State officers. After casting up the
vote, the speaker is required to an
nounce the names of the State officers
elected. The State officers are required
20 qualify and enter upon the discharge
of their duties within fifteen days after
the announcement Of their election
by the speaker. The county boards Of
election furnish certificates Of election to
the members elect Of the house of repre-
sentatives, and the bosrd Of the county
first named in the spportiOnment fur
nishes like certificates TO the senators
elect. Section 20 OF the schedule pro-
vices that all officers except the govern
or, secretary Of state, auditor, treasurer

er, shall enter upon their duties when
they shall have been declared duly elect
ed by the State board, and shall have

notified Of their election. Upon such
qualification the present incumbents are
required to vacate and turn over their
offices, The general assembly, by sec
ton %, is required to meet on the first
Tuesday after the second Monday in
