OUR LEGISLATURE ELECT.

The Union and American of yesterday
says:
The coming Legislature will be the
6rst really Democratic Assembly since
the war. During the canvass Just
closed the State administration has been
severely criticised by friend and zoe
alike. The State finances have been
thorou chly discussed from every stand
noint. Yet so admirable has been the
temper of the people that no resulting
personal grievances ind place IN the
new Legislature. The great preponder-
ance of Democratic membership is a
sure guarantee against any merely par
tisan action. Strong in the popular
heart our party can afford to be rot only
;nst hnt generous State affairs will
ba freely discussed, without regard to
mere party supremacy. Members viii
divide on questions Of political economy,
Industrial interests and general legisla-
t;on without regard TO mere partisan
shin. There will be no need of any
psrty lssb. The people have spoken on
the main issues before US, IN indorsing
tbe Democratic platform by nearly So
ma usiority. For these reasons the
people anticipate only sound and whole
some legislation from the General As
semblv. Members should bear the fact
IN mind, and prepare themselves by
STUDYING, during the coming two months.
The great questions Of State that will
come before them-taxstion, finances,
the railroads, civil service economy, the
Improvement of our Judicial system, ed
ucstion, immigration, and kindred topics.

INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION.

Last Night.
The Largest crowd ever Before As
sembled in Memphis.

This is the last day Of Memphis Indus
trial Exposition for the year 1874. From
the first day of the opening, one month
ago, success has crowned the efforts Of
the managers, and placed the enterprise
on a safe and solid foundation. This
great success is the result Of enterprise
upon the part of both exhibitors and
directors, aud its good is already felt

pect generally. But much depended
pom its success, and oil concerned did
tleir utmost to make it as attractive
as possible. The number Of visi.
tors who have attended daily attest
the result of their labors. Too much
praise cannot be given the committee
on amusements, as they bave been zeal
Gus and displayed much judgment in
the selection and arrangement of light
amusenenfs. They made a great hit
when they secured Professor Mueller
and his pupils togive q soiree, which last
night drew the largest crowd ever before
assembled under roof in Memphis
We are certain there we're near seven
thousand people in the building at one
time. Standing room vas ell that one
could wish for after getting inside. The
stream of people continued to pour in
up to the late hour of II o'clock, and
hundreds were turned back at The doors.
The main hall contained one dense mass
Of humanity, and the galleries we're lined
clear around. To move about was diff
cult, aud to stand in one place without
being crushed or smothered was an art
many studied. The crowd was indeed so
great, the noise 80 loud, that it was, in
resemblance, mob. At the rise
Of the curtain yells of qualification
arose above the tumult, but as if by
magic suddenly hushed, and the eyes Of
ell who we're perched high enough to see
we're riveted upon the beautiful, fairy

the scenery on the stage and the corps

sweet little creatures was kept up until

NEW YORK, November l4.-Delegates
from different Longshoremen's Unions
Of this and adjoining cities met in con
vention last evening to consider what
action should be taken in case the steve
dores and steamship companies should
reduce the rate of wages on Monday, as
threatened. After some discussion it was
resolved that the men should go to work
as usual Monday unless they we're in
formed their wages should be reduced,
and they should continue to work until
such notification should be given, and
then they should stop work. 1t was re-
solved also that where merchants own
ing steamers and sailing vessels cut down
wages for work on steamships, and pay
regular or higher rates on sailing yes
sells, the longshoremen shall refuse to
work on either and not be induced to
return until old rates are everywhere
established. If this strike takes place 1t
will embrace fully ten thousand men.
Sometime after the Chicago FIRE a
number of French and German artists
sent to this city a collection of paintings,
with directions to dispose Of them for
the benefit of the suffering poor of Chi
eago. The sale melted $4,000, which
has been put on deposit ct interest With
the Union Trust Company. Mayor Ne
