Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1875-01-29

pressed their state, but we regard
his elCc,I0H as calamity TO the south.
He viii be a tirebTanG- in the senate.
He forgets that the world has moved on
since his retirement lrou The Presidents
cbait, nHa is sfeIsnse Of "my policy
will be forever raising issues that have
long since been settled, and fighting
over battles that can have no other
effect than TO excite strife and stir up
sectional anImosity. Ii Is useless ID
say that Johnson will exercise prudence
in these matters. He won't do 1t. be
is naturally cOmbstive; he is going to
the senate for the express purpose OF
raising a row, and he is not man to
stop short OF the fulfillment OF his pur-
poses. We have sent q political giadis-
tor to Washington, and he will lose no
opportunity OF displaying his skill. No
doubt he will give Morton, Logan ana
the rest of them some severe Hcks,
which the southern people cannot help
but enjoy, but we will pay dearly for
cur fun. Johnson may do better than
we now think; he may exercise eau
ton and prudence in the handling of
these delicate questions, but We would
as soon expect the leopard to change his
spots or the Ethiopian his skin, which,
to say the least, is very improbable.
lSt. Louis Republican squibs.l
Logan Of Illinois exercised those lungs
Of his when President Johnson was ira
peached. There is every prospect that
Senator Logan will have occasion to ex-
eTcise his lungs even more veheme1tly
in his own behalf before his term is
ended. Mr.. Johnson has score to set
tie with the gentleman from Illinois,
and Mr.. johnson is reliable in squaring
accounts.
1t is somewhat melancholy to think
that A. J. has been cheated out Of his
best and biggest piece of meat by the
late result in Michigan. Chandler will
probably be able TO bear his defeat with
greater resignation now that A. J. is
coming back from Tennessee.
When a body becomes impure and
unsavory the introduction of some ele-
ment to agitate the mass is considered
the best means of publication. Ten
nessee has injected the required element
into the United States senate.
Logan may as well begin now and
pump himself full OF q new supply OF
hard names and bad syntax against the
time when he will have to stand in the
horrid shadow OF the awful front of
Al.
Now if DoolittIe could only slide in
from Wisconsin, on top of the tidings
from Tennessee, the CONSERVATION
among the loyal cohorts would be COM
plete.
1t would be curious circumstance if
Andrew Johnson should be in a senate
sitting as a high court upon the i'm
peachment OF Grant.
The man in theWhite House will absn-
don his reticence long enough to express
a wish that it might have been otherwise
with A. J.
Mr.. John Sherman will pause il the
midst Of his great financial travail to
drop tear over the kilograms from
Tennessee.
The lank and languid Frelinghuysen,
if he had been in the Tennessee legis-
lature, would not have voted for A. J.
Simon Cameron will not "dance any
more breakdowns upon the political
grave of A. J.n for some time to come.
Mr.. AttOrney-Ge senator
Williams will not be convulsed with joy
at the tjdings from Tennessee.
Mr., MOrtOn's digestion will not be inn
proved by the news from Nashville.
On the whole, yesterday panned out
pretty well as to statesmen.
TSt. Louis Times, 25th.
The GTeeneville tailor, alderman and
President is crawling up toward the de-
sired number Of votes. If he should
ever reach the senate chamber, Grant
would ask for an appropriation at once
to have the walls of the White House
1eadened
