INFLATION TEsrED.-it will be well for
those who insist that the "rag baby" Was
an unpopular idol, to read the following
from the y. Y. sun, an independent pa
per, which sxuarely speaks the truth.

FACTS FOR TI4E DEMoCRACY.-We have
not seen any reference made to one feat
ure OF the recent elections which we think
worthy Of close study and grave refiec-
ton, especially by Democrats. The Dem
Ocratie State Conventions Of this year in
New York, Massachusetts,, and Maryland
adopted hard money platforms Of the
sOundest quality. On the other hand,
the platforms laid down by the Democrat
ic State Conventions Of Ohio and Penn
sylyania WerS In favor of soft money.
Now, so far as the currency question
Influenced re-44N4st Il Tecs
of these diam JficalIy opposite Doctrines
upon the Democratic vote In these five
States at the recent slectiOnsG The Dem
Ocratic loss in Massachusetts, New York
and Maryland, as compared with last
year, is about 50, 900 votes. The number
Of members of Congress in these States Is
fifty, and consequently the loss just mon
toned is an average Of LOCO votes for
each Congressman. The Democratic loss
in Ohio and Pennsylvania at the recent
elections, as compared with the results Of
last year, is about IL 600 votes. They
elect fOrty-seven members OF Congress.
The Democratic loss, therefore, Il au aV-
erage Of only $40 votes for each Congress
man. Even in New York, where the
platform was intensely hard, the Demo
Gratis lose rather more heavily than did
their soft brethren in Ohio.
There may be many reasons for these
curious results. But as all events they
are worthy Of philosophical study and
consideration.

Mayor League, of Memphis, is a candi-
date for reelection, and the democrats
and conservatives are beating the pOlitl-
cal bushes to find an opponents. Our
Memphis friends ought not 90 let League
remain in office, bad rumors reach us as
to his his financial management of the af-
fairs of that city, which if true, ought to
hurl him from power without ''benefit of
clergy"
1t presents a bad outlook for the year
1876, TO discover radical mayors presiding
over the two chief cities OF the State
Tennessee is democratic, clearly so. but
upon full vote our majority is not SO
great as some estimate it, and a blunder
in Memphis, coupled with an admitted
defeat in Nashville, may imperil our
chances in the future. We happen 20
know that the Radicals, elated by their
recent partial triumphs, have gone Wig
orously TO work in Tennessee, not per-
haps to carry the State in 1876, but to re-
gain important points lost in the late cam
paigns. Radicalism Is not dead in Ten
nessee, nor are its adherents idle, and We
shall expect to see it met and routed in
our cities, rs it certainly will be in the
rural districts. 1t should be remember
ell that Pennsylvania and Ohio are TODAY
counted in the Republican pyramid, be-
cause of frauds perpetrated in Philadel-
phia and Cincinnati, and if Memphis and
Nashville remain under radical dornina-
ton, we may look for repetition Of them
at our very doors, and to the great politi-
cal de;riment of our party. Let us chroR-
iele the overthrow of KerchevaI and
League and the outlook will be more IA
Vorable.

GES. T. II. BELL.-A paragraph else
where states that this gallant soldier and
amiable gentleman is Oh the eve Of de-
parture to California, with a view Of set
Ting there permanently. With his old
comrades In arms in West Tennessee, no
name stands higher in their esteem than
that Of Tyree II. Bell, and he fairly won
the exalted place he holds. No drawer
man followed the standards Of the 'lost
cause" and his renewal from the State is
a great loss, one that the old common
wealth can not well afford to suffer-
WHEREVER he may go, our best wishes fol-
low him, confident that his sterling quail
tiles will beam none the less brightly In
the land Of his adoption, and that in eve
~ vocation he will be found to be a eiti-
zen worthy Of tho highest trusts, and
though he may nestle down beyond the
mountains, in the shades of private life,
the 'laureIled hero" will not be forgot
ten, and tradition itself will guard With
jealous hand the stories OF his knightly
deeds

EDGAR j. POE.-On our first page will
be found an interesting memoir of, the
illustrious poet, Edgar A. Poe, which
is worth perusal at this time. His
friends and admirers, duly approaching
his tran;cendent genius, have, even at
this late LAY erected monument to his
memory in the family burying ground at
Baltimore, his native city. The BaltimO-
rean, in speaking of the monument, ex-
presses itself as follows: "The tardy act
or justice has been delayed until now by
Purltanical envy and malice, disguised
by saintliness and virtue. The greatest
poet that America has ever produced, has
been az much villifed and abused as the
most Infamous character known to our
history. With most men, however wick
ed they may be while alive, death, like
charity, is considered sufficient to cover
n multitude OF sins. Their defects are
forgotten; their good deeds only are re-
memOered. But with Poe this rule has
been reversed, and all the good that he
has done has been assiduously concealed,
while his faults have been diligently pub
lished TO the world. But even these faults
have been greatly exaggerated and mis-
represented.
IL would seem strange that Poe, with
all his brilliant genius, could not escape
the breath OF calumny and detractiOn, did
we not know by sad experience that 10
man that ever lived in this world of ours
has been able 10 escape it. The purer,
the better, the grander, the greater he
may be, the more venomOus, the more
malignant, the more devilish, the more
certain and inevitable are the ISLANDERS
that envy and jealousy will circulate a.
gainst him. BE thou chaste as ice says
Hamlet to Ophelia, 'as pure as snow,
thou shalt not escape calumny.'"

SINGULAR CAsE.-Ar. Geo. /. Fox, the
celebrated pantOmime actor, has disease
Indicative Of sOfteRing of the brain, and
his brilliant career has come TO mslAfi-
ehOly end. Ills believed, too, that he has
paralysis of the face, and the disease Is
attributed to the cosmetics and Ointments
which he has used during his profession
nj career for she purpose OF keeping the
muscles and skin Of the face mobile. In
these preparations bismuth was said to
be prominent ingredient, and to this
drug was attributed the mischief. If this
be true, we can't see why some of our
modern bellies are not frequently afflicted
with paralysis Of the face. Many Of them
put on more paint than a Cananche brave.
