party, and hereafter you are going to
affiliate with the Democratic party?
A.-NOw, pray you do not misun-
derstand me. l never have been and
never will be a partisan in politics.
Whilst living in the eastern States,
among e people who relied upon manu-
featuring, / was 8 Wing. After Temov-
ing to the south, and finding that IN
stead Of being q manufacturing peo-
pie, the masses were an agri-
cultural people and Democratic in gen.
timent, l felt thar my position was
among the Democratic party, and was
q Democrat until the beginning of the
war. Since that time / have acted with
that party which | thought was best for
the country: that party which thought
and believed to be for peace and q1iet,
the restoration of the government and
the perpetuation of the Union. Now,
after opposing as far as / could the cleo
tion of several Of the legislators, who
went from this county, when see that
they have set aside their partisan ideas
and have gone to work for
the good of the country,
am glad that they were elected; and l
am obliged to you now for asking me
the question, if only for the opportuni-
ty it affords me OF returning my hearty
thanks to them for the noble stand they
took in the legislature. / do not re-
member a body of men who stood up
more nobly to the work entrusted to
them than the delegates from Shelby
county. will only be too glad to CO.
operate with them in any measure or
movement which 1 think is for the
public good. l will not remain with
the Democratic oSrty or any Otherp party
only 80 long as / feel satisfied in my
mind that they are for the good of the
masses.
Q-Still you intend hereafter to CO.
operate with the Democratic party?
Ayes; so long as the party gives
evidence that it is acting for the greatest
good for the largest number; and be-
lieve that the Democratic party of the
country to-day is in favor Of good gov
ernment and low taxes, without which
the people cannot prosper.
z What is your position in regard to
the civil rights bill?
Al am opposed to it. Neverthe-
less, l am in favor of the colOred man
having every right under the law that |
have; but | do not see why the congress
of the United States should legislste for
him in special cases, and for the purpose
of comforting upon him privileges it
would not dare attempt to confer upon
the door white man.
With this the interview ended, and
our reviewer took a respectful leave of
the mayor.

The senate does not propose to allow
the house all the credit of taking the
financial bull by the horns, and hence a
bill on the subj act was introduced some
days since by Senator Jones, purely in
self-deiense, let us hope, Tor l should re-
gret exceedingly to be forced to the be-
lief that so sensible ma0 as Senator
Jones really believes there is any wis
dom or justice in measure which pro-
vides, as this bin in question does, as
follows
Pirst-To repeal the provisions CT the
funding act which set apart the revenue
OF the State for the payment Of interest
on the public debt in preference to other
obligations of the State.
Second-To give to holders OF State
bonds new bonds, at the rate Of fifty-five
cents on the dollar, in lieu Of the bonds
now held By them.
Third-TO pay interest on said new
bonds at the rate OF six per cent, and
no interest whatever on the bonds now
held.
Foqrth-To mortgage all the public
property Of the State to secure the pro-
posed new issue OF bonds.
Bifth-TO mortgage snd set apart one
third OF all the taxes cole Cted Tor twenty
years ss 8 sinking fund to pay the inter-
est and principal OF said new Oonds.
Sixth-To have these bonds run forty
years, redeemable at the expiration Of
five years, at the option of the State.
The fact is, all that is required to pay
the State debt under the provisions
Of such bills ss the FOREGOING, is not
L.oney but leRi-latiQn. II this legisla-
tuTa has the right 10 thus cut the debt
down to fiity-five cents, the one which
meets two years hence has right to cut
it down to twenty-five cents ON the dol
lar. that which meets in 1879 may cut it
down 10 twelve ami naif, and when
the aggregated wiadom OF the State con;
venes at the cIpitol in 1851, the smsll
remnant OF the debt existing st that
time can be easily and effectuslIy legis-
lated out Of existence. II it is honest
and just to scale our solemn obligations

The Reform press have been much
troubled because Sheridan has been

here is couple Of brief paragraphs

made stebeerUient to the bayoaet. They
also illustrate that the South is as 10y

HEAVEN. Read them.
This from the New Orleans BalletiB !:
Patriots of the North, let the voice
of Grants victims in Louisiana warn
you In time. Arm yourselves without
delay band yourselves together in mil
itary array; organize by states and
have your worthy and trustY leaders
chosen. Let those who love liberty
know each other, ard get used to con-
certed action. Put aside funds, ammu-
milton and stores enough for prolonged
campaign. Be ready when duty de-
mands it to take the field in such num-
bers as to crush out tyranny before it
becomes supreme, You can depend
upon most of the old soldiers of the
armies who fought for government and
uniou, If you organize and prepare in
due season. Your country, your
threatened liberties and the palpable
encroachments, plain intentions of your
enemies, call fos active preparation. In
the name of liberty, We conjure YOU to
heed its warning and be ready.

Every country has had its patriot to
rise up with a acknowledgement
arm and strike down the tyrant OBJ
pressing it. To kill in self defence is
justifable always. To rid the world ct
such monster as Sheridan would b a
deed for all the world to applaud. We
don't mean for midnight ASSASSIN to
murder him, but for the people IF New
Orleans, of Louisiana, rising in the
majesty of their might, to slaI him on
the streets as they would a rabid dog,
in the broad open day, With the sun
light of Gods heaven shining down up
on the act, and growing brighter in APP
proval.
Don't they read patriotic. The old
flag in Louisiana among the "loyaJ'
CD men without the bayonet does very

bayonet it has the same significance it
had at the fall Of Richmond.

The HOUSE Commute on Patents
has reported against the extension Of
the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine
and it is hoped that the House will
follow the recommendations of the
committee. This patent has been
running now twenty-one years, having
been once renewed. The firm have
already realized an immense fortune
from it, and there is no earthly reason
why they should be continued in their
monopoly, especially as they are not the
investors but the purchasers of the
patent. The Singers and the Grover
and Baker companies are interested
in the same way as the Wheeler and
Wilson. Howe, the original inven tor,
amassed an immense fortune which has
probably been lost by his sOn-in-law,
Stockwell, in Pacific Mail, buta Howe
is dead, he is probaly not affected by
it. The sewing machine is great in
vestion-one of the greatest of modern
times, but we claim that it has been

ing to the poor women who earns her
living by sewing and it probably is, but
it would be still greater blessing if she
could buy a machine for ten dollars
which she now pays all the way from
fifty to nienty for. The patents once
expired and competition fairly at work.
there is no telling how low the price
would be. The old manufacture eres
would find still plenty of use for their
stock and machinery, for with prices
materially reduced the demand would
be increased materially. There is
many a poor girl in the country who
longs for machine which is now be-
You'd her reach. but with which she
would be provided were it not for the
existence of the patent. Those who
now own the patent only bought it
for FOURTEEN years anyhow and they have
had it twenty-one. It rightfully be-
longs to the public. There still re-
main sub-patents however, which will
not expire for some time. = Sentinel
