HAMILTON FISH, Sec'y of State
FR1TERN1L GREETINGS.

In the Southern Methodist Confer
ence, on Wednesday last, the follow
ing resolutions were presented by
Judge Jackson, of Georgia, and
Trusten Polk, of Missouri:
Resolved, that the message oflove
and brotherly kindness from the
Methodist Episcopal Church has
been cordially received, and has
been referred to a committee of
nine, who, in due time, will formally
and fraternally reply thereto.
Resolved, that we regret that the
distinguished messengers sent by
that Church cannot remain to await
the presentation and reception of
that report, but understanding that
they leave US to-day, we are unwil-
ling that they should return home
without carrying with them thSt
knowledge of oar appreciation Of
their courteous and fraternal bear
ing among US, and our wishes and
prayers for their future happiness
and prosperity
F. w. Earnest suggested the word
Z" Christian" instead of : courteous
Judge Jackson accepted the word
" Christian" but retained "cour-
teous' also. q
DIR. Cranberry said he highly APP
proved the spirit Of the resolution,
but objected to the form. 1t should
read whereas, etc, we therefore
give, etc.
Judge Jackson-I am utterly in
different as to language [ desire
simply to show to the world that we
let nobody be above us in courtesy
and fraternal love, and wish to ex-
press to the whole Christian brother
hood from whom these brethren are
sent, and to all who love our Lord
Jesus Christ in sincerity, that we re-
spect their greetings as children Of
Him whom we are told is love-
DR.. .Sehon said !; know the i'm
portance and responsibility of this
hour. The adoption of that rcsolu-
ton is due to our dis tinguished Wis

GUBERNATORLAL OUTLOOK.
From the Paris rntenigencer.

1t should be gratifying to the
pride of West Tennessee Conserv-
atives and Democrats, that notwith-
standing the number of names men
toned in connection with the coming
Gubernatorial election. any one of
them would if elected do honor to
the position. AS the summer APP
prOacLes, during which q convention
will meet to select from the number
of worthy names, one, who shall be
an exponent of the principles and
doctrines taught and believed by
the great Conservative masses of
our people, more interest will be de-
veloped on this subject. We feel
assured, that not only will fitness be
duly considered, but that harmony
will prevail and there will be no I'M
digni6ed scramble for she place
among the candidates from West
Tennessee, neither do we expect
anything to he done by the personal
friends of the various candidates
that will in any degree reflect upon
the party, or themselves. Recent
declarations from sources which we
consider authoritative, seem to set
tie the fact, that Judge Sneed will
under no circumstances be a candi-
date This vii tually leaves the field
open to Judge Porter. With the
exception of Madison, Crockett aud
one or two other counties. West
Tennessee will vote in convection
for Judge Porter. In giving ex-
preston to this, our candid opinion,
we do so with not the least inten-
ton of disparaging the claims Of
other worthy gentlemen whose
names have been mentioned in this
connection. So far from this, should
it occur that we are mistaken in this
opinion, the Inteltigenccr will give a
most cordial support to the nominee
Of the convention, although its choice
should fall on some other worthy
candidate instead of Judge Porter.

itors, to the occasion which brought
them TO us as 8 General Conference.
The appearance of this Commission
from the Methodist Episcopal Church
has brought an hour which my soul
has long desired to see. | pray the
blessing of God upon them as a
member of the old fraternity; and as
a member of the new / rejoice at any
omen of peace and good feeling. 1t
is the demand of the age, Of the pc
Rod in whichswe live, and of our
glorious religion, that we extend to
them a fraternal hand. I say moth
ing of differences. Let the future
take care of itself. Let us now ex-
tend to them our hands in Christian
fraternity.
DR.. Sehon' remarks were received
with great applause.
DIR. Edwards, DIR. Lee, Judge
Brown and DR.. S. NJ. Anderson made
eloquent speeches in support of the
resolutions, the last named being in
terrupted with cries of Vote! Vote,
and the resolutions were adopted.

It has often been remarked that,
in proportion to their means, the
poor are more generous than the rich.
Poor Memphis, head over ears in
debt, with taxes amounting to FIVE
per cent. yesterday made present
to rich Uncle Sam of a lot worth
100000, on whiclfto build his Gus
tom House. A few days ago the
same City Council refused an APP
preparation of $4,000 for the relief
of starving humanity almost at its
doors. Now they give 100000 to
the most profigate government on
earth. Is It not written that to him
who hath much. more shall be given?

THE LSSUE-CIYIL RIGHTS.
We publish on cur first page a
lengthy extract from a recent letter
written by Senator Brownlow in ref
erence to some features embodied in
the supplementary Civil Rights bill
now pending before Congress; and
also letter written Tor the Knox
vile Chronicle, upon the same sub
ject, by the County Superintendent
of Granger county. Both speak to
those interested in terms that can he
comprehended. Both point out TO
the colored man of the South the
certain blasting of the rash hope
that Northern Radical politicians
have awakened in his breast. They
show him that in the South. the edu-
cation of his children and social
equality before the law cannot exist
together. In other words, that if
Congress is so blind to his interest
as to pass the Civil Rights bill, the
colored man must henceforth toll for
the means to pay for the education
of his race. Not only this: these
men, speaking as they do from wide
~ different standpoints, warn the
ec.lOred man of his political doom,
should Congress persist in its infat-
uatiOn. Henceforth he must stand
without the support of Republicans
in the South. He must stand alone
or fall.
But it is not alone for this we pub
fish these letters. Everywhere in
the South. and especially in Tennes-
see, the people are awake upon the
subject Of popular education. The
common school system is the gener-
81 fayorite among the masses, and to
it the great Leart of the public is
being drawn as with n magnet. But
every thinking man of the State
knows that the passage of this bill
by Congress, and its permanent en-
forcement, would be sudden and swift
destruction to popular education in
the South. These letters, then, in
great measure should al,ay the fears
of our people upon this subject for
they show that it would be simple
madness in the Republican party to
attempt to force the co-educatiOn of
the races-that the passage of the
bill would disintegrate and destroy
abe party.
It. is, said, "Whom the gods woald
destroy they first make mad" The
destruction Of the Republican party,
in its present corrupt form, is con-
summation deVOntly to be desired.
The even temporary suspension of
popular education would be much to
be deplored. We are not right GER
tain, however. that the one ought not
cheepfuAly to be borne for the sake
or the other.
Let Republicans in Tennessee,
who see and know these things, con-
tinue to speak out till they are heard
Mt Washington and needed.
