NEW YORK.

New YORK, September lS.-The bark
Griffoin, from Liverpool for Philadel.
phia, spoken to the 10Th, reported that
on the 9th, in squall, she lost her first
mate and three men.
Papers have been fled in the United
States Circuit Court, Brooklyn, in the
case of Edna Dean Proctor against
Francis D. Moulton, and formal order
of arrest issued.
A correspondent in the camp on the
Wichita river telegraphs that the supply
train for General Miles expedition, in
charge of Major Lyman, of the Fifth in
fantry, with one company of infantry
and twenty men of the Sixth cavalry
commanded by Lieutenant West, was
corralled on Wichita river on the 9th
inst, was attacked by 400 to 500 Co.
manches and Kiowas. After fight of
five days the Indians we're repulsed with
a loss of from rs to 80 killed, and Lieu
tenant Lewis, of the Fifth infantry, was
badly wounded in the left leg, two men
killed and five wounded. Major Price,
of the Eighth cavalry, defeated large
party of Comanches on the 18th instant,
killing several. Lieutenant Baldwin
and three scouts, with dispatches for
supplies, got through after desperate
fight, killing FIVE and capturing one rem
egade. On the 18th six couriers for

OUR ENLARGEMENT TOMORROW,

Owing to the favorable opening OF the
business season and the increasing
pressure Upon our advertising columns
the LEDGER will appear tomorrow IN an
enlarged and improved form, with over
six additional columns. This has been
rendered imperativsly necessary by the
increase of business matter for which
we have but little additional room at
present except at the expense of reading
matter. The LEDGER will present
business appearance in keeping with the
CITY and season and will thereby offer
still greater inducements to advertisers.
The proprietor of the LEDGER is deter
mined to make it frst-class journal in
all its various OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
markets, river, political, local, general
news, reading mattel, etc, all of WHICH
will add to its present attractiyeness and
popularity with the reading public
The public may take this as an evidence
of returning prosperity and commercial
activity, for this paper has learned long
since never to enlarge except when abb
solutely necessary. Newspapers are the
barometers of trade and commerce, and
as such always indicate the BUSINESS
status Of the communities they repre-
sent. We will present handsome and
well filed sheet tomorrow and hence
forth. An extra edition will be issued,
aud our advertising patrons are notified
to send in their favors early. We an
ticipate good season and reasonable
share of prosperity in spite of short
crops and all discouragements common
in this section of the country, still hay
ing full faith and confidence in the
vitality and future Of Memphis.

and other thousands have been com
PEELED to exercise the most rigid economy
and practice great selfdenial to make the
ends meet. To be sure this does by
no manner of means prove that the
laws we speak of ought not to be re-
pealed or modified, nor does it show
that the laborer and mechanic is not
often beaten out of the price OF his
wages by dishonest or worthless employ
ers. But it does demonstrate that II
money were plenty, times hush' the iac-
tories, and railroads, and mercantile
ouses employing their full complement
of hands, we should hear little complaint.
We therefore conclude that the immedi-
ate, pressing need OF the workers is the
restoration of general activity in all
lines of trade and manufacturing. To
get rid of a bad or i'll adapted law, that
has become engrafted into the polity of
the State, is the work of time, not infre-
quently of long and tedious time and
great skill and labor, in forming combi-
nations that control political parties.
But the restoration of National prosperity
is thing we can all labor for and
assist in bringing about. 1t is folly to
saw the capitalists Of the country keep
the labor idle because they wish to OPP
press the laborer. They don't employ
men because they cannot do so except
at loss. Better times are coming.
Let those who doubt read the manufac-
turing and other kinds of news we have
printed in the past week or two So let
us be patient and wait. Let working
men organize, by all means, for mutual
protection and benefit. But let them
beware of demagogues in and out OF
their ranks" We are glad that our sis
ter city has such hopeful view of the
future, and trust that Memphis will have
a good business season greatly to the re-
lief of all classes, and that the interests
Of each may be duly considered in future
local and State legislation.

OUR woRK1EeMEx-rHE1R WANTS

Chattanooga is the only city in Ten
essee that can lay much claim to be a
m anufacturing place, and we naturally
look to the press of Chattanooga for ar
ticles relating to the interests and condi'
ton Of workingmen, and Astounding with
practical ideas. The surrounding country
is rich in coal and iron deposits, and
this railroad and manufacturing center
is destined to be the Pittsburg of the
South at no distant day. We read
therefore with interest anything on the
subject in question which we find in the
papers of that city. The last number Of
the Times received contains long arti
Gle, which we Summarize as follows,
merely remsrking thai Memphis is es-
sentially cotton aud Commercial mart,
with none Of the features OF manufac-
turing city, and that the interests of
workingmen proper-that is those who
have learned trades and are mechanics
are apt to be overlooked by the great
m sjority. The Times says: We have
before remarked that there are statutes
III force in this State that bear unequally
and unjustly on the working classes. The
burdens imposed by this partial legisla
ton we're not so seriously feltin the flush
times that succeeded the war when the
currency was greatly inflated and every
body had money. The difficulty haI
been in the impossibility OF obtaining
remunerative employment and promp
pay for work. The panic turned thu
capital Of the country topsy turvey, un
settled all established methods of man
agement, pinched manufacturers an'
railroads, merchants and builders, com
polling them to economic by reducing
their force OF clerks, laborers and me
chanics, aud abruptly stopped nearl,

that was unfinished or just ready to g
into operation about year ago. Thl

NEW ORLEANS.
Penn and Kellogg Como to an
Agreement.

CHICAGO, September lS,-The Tribune
announces that it viii publish an extra
this afternoon containing Tilton's new
statement complete, simultaneously with
its appearance in New York.
A New Orleans special to the Tribune,
received at a late hour, AYERS that Penn
and Kellogg have come to an agreement
by which new election shall be held in
Louisiana, the government in the mean
time to devolve upon the President of
the Senate.
NEW ORLEANS, September l8.-No
new developments this morning. Gen.
Brook occupies the Executive office.
Mayor Wilt had consultation with
him relative to the re-eatablishing of the
municipal courts and other matters per-
tanning to the police department, pre-
servation of order, etc. A consultation
is now going on at the custom-house be-
tween Governor McEnery and his parti-
sans looking to compromise, but legal
obstacles are said to present themselves
at almost every step. Military occupa-
ton until Congress disposes of the ques-
ton would doubtless be cheerfully &C.
quiesed in by both parties.
A dispatch to Governor McEnery,
from Bayou Sara, reports that that town
was attacked last night by negroes. The
attack was repulsed. General Emery
has ordered troops to that point.

MEETING TONIGHT.

Two hundred of our leading citizens
have signed call for a meeting to be
held in front of the Peabody Hotel this
evening for the purpose of giving ex'
preston to our sympathy with the down
trodden people of Louisiana. SEch &C.
ton has been taken in Louisville, u.
Louis and elsewhere, and will be proper
and becoming on our part. Let there
be full turn out and fair expression
of public sentiment by able speakers
The adoption of dispassionate but clear
and firm resolutions at this time will
have great weight with the public mind.
IL is due to ourselves that we protest
against the usurpation and con6scation
in a sister State, for we know not how
soon some petty tyrant will attempt to
use this as a precedent in our own midst.
The liberties of the people at large are
enda ngered, but the Northern mind is
Indifferent because the South only is af-
fected at present. The day may come
within the present century when the
dregs of this bitter cup may be put to
their own lips.
