FINANCIAL THINK ERISG.

1t seems that the Republican members
Of Congress are still caucusing for some
sort of financial legislation this session.
The bill of Mr.. Farwell gains much
favor, its leading features being, ac-
cording to the Washington correspond
ent Of the Ne,y York Herald, as follows:
First, that all restrictions as to the
number or circulation of national banks
be removed. Secondly, that, from the
1st of July, 1875, a million of green.
backs shall be retired and cancelled
each month, this process to proceed
till they reach par in gold, the Secre,
tary being authorized to sell bonds il
needed to obtain funds for redeeming
the greenbacks. In case his bill passes
Farwell has two other measures IN re
serve, one to relieve the national banks
of all national taxation. At present
they pay on circulation and deposits
some seven millions a year. His last
straw is to exempt from State usury
laws, all bank paper having less thar
four months to run. 1t Will be noticed
that all this would be fun for the banks
without any CLEAN of relief for the
people.

COMMENTING on Judge WatsOn's
statement that his salary was first fixed
by the Governor and then by the Chan
celIor, after reference to the Clerk and
Master, the KnorCiIJe Chronicle, while
disclaiming any expression of opinion
on the amount of the salary IN ques-
ton, remarks:
There is sometimes, and we may say
quite frequently, sort Of recklessness
displayed By courts In fixing the fees
of receivers. commissioners, admins
TRAITOR =, guardians and attorneys. The
evidence upon which these fees are
fixed is not always the most cautious,
nor from disinterested parties. We
have frequently heard of exorbitant
fees being allowed by courts. Com
plants to that effect are made and they
are not altogether groundless. The
proceedings of courts in such matters
should be conducted with due caution.
Dead mems estates as well as those of
the living are sometimes mercilessly de-
preciated, in way that would not bear
close scrutiny.

CHIEF JUSTICE NICHOLsONS VIM
DICATION.
Memphis APPEAL


Elsewhere will be found In to-day's
Appeal the letter of Hon. A. 0. P.
Nicholson, explaining his position as
an arbitrator appointed by the last
Tennessee Legislature. This defense,
or explanation. is unnecessary. The
private life of Judge Nicholson has
been so clean and pure during the forty
years he has been IN the public service
as to render any explanation as to his
motives n1alapropos, and beneath the
dignity of has unsulIied and exalted
name. 1t is true, the air is tainted
with corruption, public jobbery and
official peculation. but a. o. P. Mich
olson is too old to learn new tricks
has too long lived beautiful and ex-
emplary life to mar the remnant of his
days by any mercenary or dishonorable
act. He is far above the money loving
spirit of the times as the highest noun
tain-peak is above the plains. His
name is synonym of honor and his
character above suspicion. Judge
Nicholson unspotted reputation shines
out the brighter by the dark and dirty
mud in which so many of the public
men of the day are laundering.

ELSEWHERE we reproduce a lengthy
extract from a speech delivered in New
York lately by Hon. w. z. Forster,
Member Of the British Parliament,
embodying the impressions he derived
from a recent tour through the South.
Several incidental matters make this
tribute the more remarkable, and the
politics of his audience, the New York
Union League, make it extremely
valuable. His extensive travels in the
South were calculated to impress them
the more so, as, during the war,
when the ruling classes of England
we~e generally favorable to the South
Mr.. Forster. stood aIoof and almost
alone, sturdily in favor of the North
and the Union. A fact which gives
additional sting to his thinly disguised
criticism of the Radical policy in the
South, is that be happens to be an
eminently practical statesman and is
universally recognized as such.

AMONG all the projects for internal
improvements before Congress, about
the only good one is that for opening
the mouth of the Mississippi. 1t is not
a party measure, and can hardly be
called sectional, as all the States be
tween the Alleghanies and the Rockies
are interested. The Washington cor
respondent of the Ne1r York Tribune
thinks there would be little question IF
success if its friends could only agree
how to do it. The contention lies be.
tween the jetty plan and the canal
plan. If the former be adopted, it is a
big job for Capt. Eads, the inventor Of
the system. If the Fort St. Philip ca
nal be made, it viii convert a great deal
of now worthless land into rich real
estate, especially at its two termini.
Thus there is big money for somebody
in either plan, and both sides employ
large Hobbies.

AIcURIoUs parallel might be drawn
between the boys of Boston Common,
one hundred years ago, who braved the
British General Gage and his minions,
in defence of their snow-hills, and the
New Orleans boys. of this generation,
who defended their sisters and sweet
hearts last Thursday against that
"quintessence OF denominations" Civil
Rights. There is somewhat of a con-
trast, too: the cold blooded New En-
gland urchins were fighting for snow
while the warm-hearted Southern lads
were defending Gods last, best gift to
man.

1.-THE SENATORsHIP.


Somebody has suggested Judge Por-
ter as a suitable man to represent Ten
nessee in the United States Senate.
We don't know wto is the author of
this impolitic suggestion, but suppose
it was some fool Democrat or design
ing Radical. Judge Porter has been
elected by the people of Tennessee
Governor for no other purpose than to
serve the State in that capacity, and in
that capacity they want him to act.
He was not elected Governor as a step
ping stone to the United Senatorship,
but simply as Governor, to perform the
responsible duties of that high Office.
He is an able and trustworthy man,
and in the belief that he would serve
the State acceptably as an executive
officer the people elected him. Tennes-
see needs a good Governor as much as
a good United States Senator, and she
need not be deprived Of the former to
get the latter, when good men are
plentiful.

Pulaski Citizen.

We ask the Democratic papers of the
State to publish Mr.. Johnson's speech
at Chattanooga a few days before the
election. Mr.. johnson has the right
to be an Independent, Republican or
whatever he may think properto be, but
when ne comes before a Democratic
Legislature we wish the members to
know what position he occupied during
the canvass. All the Radical candI-
dates were pledged to support him.
He had formed an alliance with that
party and did all he could to defeat the
regular Democratic candidates. lie
has no more right TO ask the
support of Democratic members
of the Legislature than a Rad
ical has, and If they do support
him we will hereafter note their votes
as an endorsement Of his Chattanooga
speech. If any other man in Tennessee
had acted as Mr.. johnson did IN the
last canvass in his intrigues with the
Radical party he would not be recOg.
uized as a Democrat in any part Of the
State, and would be denounced by the
whole Democratic press. Why is he
an execution?
