The Southwestern University.

The directors of this institution
have just closed an important meeting,
which has been protracted for several
days in this city. GAINESVILLE, Tennes-
see, was chosen as the location of the
university, and Rev. DIR. B. NJ. Palmer,
of New Orlean<, was elected chaucel-
lor and financial agent to take the con-
troll and management of the enterprise.
As an inducement to locate the uni
versity at GAINESVILLE, the directors
were offered and received one hundred
and eighty eight thousand dollars from
the corporation and citizens of that To-
cality. About an hundred thousand
dollars of this amount consists of bonds
of the State of Tennessee, ready to be
turned over to the directors. Wee con-
graduate the directors and the Pres
byterians of the southwest upon this
suspicious commencement of their
great enterprise, and with almost two
fifths of the half million of dollars
which they propose to raise as a nu
cleus, and with the power and influ-
ence of so great man as Dr. Palmer
exerted in its behalf the success of the
university is already assured. We feel
a pride in this enterprise, because it
proposes a great university under the
auspices of the Presbyterian church
of the south, and because it is to be
southern institution We can not
doubt that the PresbyteriaDs of our
southern country will rally as one man
TO the upbuilding of the institution,
and that they will respond literally TO
the call which Dr. Palmer will soon
make upon them for subscriptions

INFORMATION from North Carolina
is to the effect that the Conservatives
will carry the State and make amends
for their failure in 1872, whereby so
much mischief was done to the cause
of regeneration and free government.
Tennessee is the daughter of North
Carolina, and has similar sin to atone
fora failure to do its duty to itself
and the country, at the last general
election. Has she the same honest and
patriotic determination to repair the
blunder and its consequences? The
people have, if left to the guidance of
their own honest convictions; but, it
happens, unfortunately, that many of
them, having no confidence in them
selves, swing to the skirts of specious
and selfish demagogues by whom they
are betrayed into dangerous, if not ia
tai. political blunders by which they
suffer and inhict sufferingupon the body
polite of which they are a constituent
element. No single southern State
can promote the cause of Radicalism
without injuring the others, by retard-
ing the work of regeneration and weak
ening the cause Of constitutional liber-
ty and local self-goyernment. The
South is a unit, in its relations to the
wrongs and insults inflicted by the i'm
perious North-let it be a unit in its
efforts to correct the wrongs and re-
pei the insults. This is the impulse,
of the masses and yet-strange to say
many are led off from this line of
policy, by men who have taken an ac-
tive part in the infection of those
wrongs and insults, and now volunteer
TO resist them because they hope, by
this pretended sympathy, to win Office
and its emoluments, and efface even
the memory of their past treachery.
and veil their present duplieity from
the eyes of their dupes.

THE Agricultural Congress, lately
in session at Atlanta, was unanimous
in the belief that water transportation
is indispensable as a means of cheap
freight, and demanded of Congress due
encouragement of an efficient system
of river and canal navigation. The
same body firmly protested against
the authority of the general govern
meut to assume control of railroads
within the States or passing out of
them. The Changers have a deep in
terest in both subjects, and should in
vestigate, with a view to full under
standing of their bearings upon the in
terests Of agriculture.

w. s. MALLORY'S REPLY.

EDITORS CHRONICLE Since | am
convinced that it is the universal de-
sire of the people Of Montgomery
county to have the various Offices of
State and county filled by the best
men, men of ability and moral worth,
and seeing call on me to become a
candidate to represent this county in
the next Legislature, l must say, that
/ was greatly surprised, but feeling it
due my friends that l should reply, |
have this to say: l have never sought
an Office; neither do | expect to seek
one, nor will | become a candidate to
create faction in the party to which
| belong, and to which every conserv-
alive man should belong who is OPP
posed to Radical rule. Bat should l
be the choice of the people of Montgom-
cry scounty, in convention assemble,
and elected, then will [, with the best
ability / have, serve them; but under
no other circumstances will | suffer
my name 10 be run.

SEE the card of Mr.. Mallory, in re-
ply to the call upon him to become a
candidate for the Legislature. The
patriotic spirit which dictated it, is
worthy of the highest commentator
and should teach an invaluable lesson
to all who seek office from personal
considerations, regardless of those for
whose benefit the office was created.
1t pleasure to see competent men
willing to serve the people, but eager
place hunting is rarely an evidence of
the fitness of the man for the place he
seeks.

it. The responsibilities which must at
tend the monstrous iniquity, areloom-
ing upin the immediate future, and
threatening Radicalism with a crush

with Grant, that the party ought to be
unloading instead of taking on addition

the negroes may hold the party respon-

THE new financial bill has passed
the Senate, but so amended as TO make
it signal victory for the advocates of
more currency. Its fate in the Lower
House is undecided and since Grant has
given that body to understand that he
will veto the bill, as it passed the Sen
ate, it remains to be seen how far the
commands of the Dictator may influ-
ence the representatives ola, so-called,

THE Radical mayor of Memphis ex-
tended a cordial welcome to A. j. and
obtained from him the promise of a
speech-not osten,ibly, of course, but
practically, in the interest OF Radi-

us, is as true in politics as in anyother
case, and never was it more clearly IL
Illustrated than in the last general cleo

what he is preparing to do for them u

AsoURreaders have aIreadyIearned,

AsoUR readers have already learned,
the troubles in Arkansas have been
partially adjusted, through the inter-
vention of the Federal Executive.
But. inasmuch as the facts upon which
that Intervention is based, were as pal
pable at the beginning of the conflict.
as at the date of his proclamation, it
is clear that Grants ineompetency,
whether intellectual or moral, is the
cause of the evils which have resulted
from the imbecile delay, or unpardon-
able ignorance. The bloodshed, de-
moralization and great waste of time
and money incident upon the villainy
of Clayton, Brooks and corrupt ju-
diciary-favored, in the outset, by
kindred spirits in Westinghouse
seriously disastrous to the present and
future of Arkansas, and should be a
warning to the whole country, against
the proneness of States to encourage
Capitalization by calling upon Congress
and the Executive to intervene for the
settlement of their local troubles.
Local sovereignty was clearly designed
AS the keystone of the arch of free in
situations, and every act, on the part
of State, ignoring this fact, and ac-
knowledging the supremacy of the Fed
eral administration over local affairs,
is treason against this fundamental
and original feature of our govern
ment. Baxter, though Radical. kept
this idea in view, and only asked Grant
TO keep off his dogs, whilst he Baxter,
cleaned out Brooks and his pack, whilst
the latter, relying upon the Louisiana
precedent, acknowledged Grants right
10 make governors, and asked that he
be made the Kellogg of Arkansas
But, in the meantime, the signs Of the
times had taught Grant some caution
and hence his reluctant Endorsement Of
Baxter.
