Bunker HiII-A French Mistake.
From tho Nav York World,1

From the New York World.l
What a thing fame isl This is the way
in which one Of our French cotempora-
ries, the Messenger, describes that little
difficulty at Bunker's Hill: " On the 18th
of June, 1875, the American volunteers,
commanded by General Artemus Ward,
attacked and thoroughly beat the Brit
ish troops near Charlestown, in Massa-
chusetts. The Messenger means well,
of course, but then the American volun-
teers on that occasion were not COM
manded by General Ward; they did not
attack, but on the contrary were at
tackled by the British troops, and they
did not beat, but on the contrary were
beaten by the said British troops. The
peculiarly of Bunker Hill is that it is the
only defeat which has ever been oele-
brated as heartily as if it had been a VIC
tory. Suppose the American Register
in Paris were to speak of the 18th OF
June as the anniversary Of battle IN
which the French army, commanded by
General Hoohe, and occupying the vii
lage Of Waterloo was attacked by the
English army, and beat of its assailants
with tremendous slaughter.

EDWARD SHAW,

the negro wharfmaster. Ed made a
rambling harangue in bad English. He
pitched into Colonel Kellar, of the Ava
lanche, A. E. FraRkland, j. j. Rawlings
and the Southern people generally.
The Memphis press came in for little
abuse, because the press had excavated
him many a time and oft. The crowd
becoming impatient, Ed was induced to
sit down.
Loud calls were made for Recorder
Winters, but that city official avoided
making an grafton on OConnell by
wisely substituting a motion to adjourn,
which was carried.
On the stand appeared General M. T.
Williamson, City Register; P. M. Win
tiers, Recorder; John League, Mayor;
Ed Shaw (negro), Wharfmaster; B.
Lewis, Congressman S. S. Garrett,
United States offiee-holder and Radical
candidate for Sheriff; Andy Davis, Radi-
cal nominee for Criminal Court Clerk;
B. 0. Carr, who acted as chairman; P.
J. Mulvihill, Radical nominee for County
Court Clerk, and a number of minor
lights, whose names are as yet unknown
to local fame. In the crowd of four or

CIVIL RIGHTS.

RadicaIism Hold u Love Feast at
Cochran Hall-The speakers Last
Night.
Last night a crowd of two hundred
whites and about the same number OF
negroes assembled at Cochran Hall to
hear B. Lewis blow his trumpet.
MULyIHILL
made the first speech, and attempted to
explain why he appeared before two
conventions as champion nomination
seeker. He foundered in his explana-
ton or apology and announced himself
a simon-pure Radical. He made a saw
age onslaught on Mr.. Reilly, the Bartlett
nominee for the office of County Court
Clerk, and gave Mayor League a few
shots on the subject with reference to a
bank with only ten thousand dollars
capital, which was the depository OF the
thousands of dollars collected by Reilly.
Mulvihill of course referred to the EN-
met Bank, which is controlled by Mr..
League and Mr.. Fisher. We can inform
the red-headed Irish rooster" as he is
called in negro circles, that the Emmett
Bank is sterling institution which is
owned by the gentlemen above named,
and that it has ever been conducted in a
manner calculated to inspire the conf
dence of the public. While Mayor
League is not working in harmony with
the LEDGER or the white mans ticket,
but is an avowed advocate Of the negro
lied ticket, we will always do justice to
him as a man who stands high as
banker in commercial circles. Mulvi-
hill is quite a good talker, but he uses
too many words of profanity in his
speeches ever to become graceful or
elegant speaker He wearied the meet
ing by his lengthy and egotistical speech,
and was at last shut off by rousiDg calls
for Lewis.
BARBOUR LEWIS
appeared on the stand dressed in his
usual hashy style, but we missed that
blue silk necktie which of yore he wore.
His style of dress has been toned down
a little by Washington society. He
opened out battery Of words on the
Appeal especially and the press of Mem
phis generally. The press of the city
did not aid him, but always abused him.
he also became egotistical, and claimed
all the credit for the appropriation made
for the Memphis Custom-house. Bar
bour made a communistic speech and
sought to incite antagenism between the
working man and the capitalists. He
was severe on Democracy, or rebel
Democracy as the Radicals have it. We
noticed that his general style and man
ner have become more lively. He gestic-
ulates fercely and grins ferociously as
he raises up on his toes and racks back
on his heels and walks the platform like
a Gagged hyena in menagerie. This Of
course, is the Congressional style OF
oratory and gesture, but to our mind
it does not sit well on the pompous look
ing Congressman. He complimented
Mullett, the supervising architect, and
proved on paper that he and Mullett
we're very intimate friends; indeed,
Mullett would do anything for Barbour.
He advocated the passage of the civil
rights bill, and concluded his buncombe
speech without referring to the local
contest. He stepped back in a gingerly
style to his seat, and the void left on the
platform was filled by a dark shadow
named

es salvaion. II wraps and
binds together the Pentateuch
and the Apocalypse. To the
music OF redemption the angels
strung their harps and down
that golden thread came the
blessed promise of a dellverer
which cheered the hearts Of
our hrst psreats when in shame
end guilt they passed through
the gates of Eden. Upon that
thread swung the picture of fu.
ture glory which inspired the
faith of Abraham when in his
old age God declared "he
should have a son in whose
seed all the families OF the earth
should be blessed;' and over
and along this line of light
were hung the splendid sym
bols pertaining TO the worship
of the Jews, the magnificent
visions of the prophets, the
exultant songs of The. .bards and
poets. Verily,it was TO hold this
pregnant thought, to keep it
bright and beautiful, that God
singled out the Israelites and
made them a peculiar people
among the nations OF the earth.
The apostle was writing to
Jews and he says: II the word
spoken by angels was steadfast
and every transgression and
disc bedience received a just
recompense of reward, how
shall we escape if we neglect so
great salvation which at the
first began to he spoken by the
Lord, and was confirmed unto
US by them that heard him?"
In this language there is evil
dent allusion to The law of Mo.
ses, (which was orlained-eiv
en-by angels in the hand of a
mediator" And therefore very
naturally their minds would re
vert back to the salvation
which preceded The publication
Of that laW-when their fore
fathers were delivered and
brought forth from The slavery
of The Pharaohs. Indeed one
of the purposes Of The writer
seems 10 be to awaken the re-
membrance OF that tact in the
minds OF his readers, that he
might the mare deeply impress
upon their hearts the truth OF
that mightier deliverance which
God had wrought out by his be.
loved son. That was a saliva
ton, a great salvation. But
this is so great. Jehovah then
looked down from his throne
with intensest interest. He
saw the iollingIsrselites as they
groaned beneath expressions
weight. His great heart was
moved in tenderest sympathy.
So that from out of the blazing
bush at Horeb he commission
ed Moses to be their SAVIOR
to stand before the proud mon
arch who welded The destinies
Of Egypt and demand the liber-
alton OF his people. Subse-
quently by his own right hand
and stretched ont arm, he led
them away from their ignobre
servilude with o song of tri.
umph on their lip. and the
promised land in vision before
their eyes. That was a saliva
ton worthy of being enshrined
In their deepest and holiest
memories and handed down tu
the generations yet TO come
through the succeeding years
of time. After all, however,
that deliverance was but a

who should "Speak unadvlsei

had spoken unto them by his
own dear Son, the darling OF
his bosom. He was the One
"mighty to save and strong to

were but human-the servants

now God had spoken was Lord
of all, God having made him
heir of all things. He it was
by whom IN The beginning God
had made The worlds, and BY
whose powerful word all thing

the bright effuIgence, the raw
of the glory of The Father,
the beamingi image of his per.

deepest valley of humiliation
and put away our sins by his
death upon the cross he sat
down on the right hand of the
Majesty on high. Coming
down through all The hoary
ages of the past had he inher-
tied a better, a higher, a boiler
