A Nashville drummer yesterday tel
egraphed from Corlnth to one Of our
prominent bankers to this effect: IRE
ported that the cholera is in your city.
What are the facts. Do run any risk
Gin coming throughP We have not
heard of even one case Of sickness that
would approximate cholera, and any At
tempt to spread a report to the contrary
cannot but be regarded entirely grstu-
itous, and as intended to injure the city
and every individual in It. We trust
the drummer, if he comes through, will
be kind enough to put us in possession
Of the name Of his informant for publi-
cation, that our readers may see and
know the person or persons to whom
they are indebted for the spread Of a re-
port destructive Of their interests.

HOWEVER valuable it may be in
itself, commerce alone will not make OF
sustain a city Of any great proportions.
There must be creation Of values &s
well as an exchange Of commodities"
This position is sustained by the history
If all cities, and there is good reason for
it. The States stand in wealth and COM
merce in proportion to their manufac-
turing interests. It has been thought
New York was an exception, but she is
not. The manufactures OF New York
in 1872 amounted to seven hundred and
fifty-two million dollars, while those of
Pennsylvania, which was the next
State, were seven hundred and twelve
million dollars, and so on throughout
the States. 1t increases wealth more to
convert the wheat into -four, the cotton
into cloth, the iron ore into machinery,
than it does to dig them out ofthe earth.
A dozen cotton mills, half a dozen fur
naces and founderies, eight or ten pork
packeries, would give new life to all
branches OF business in Memphis. Com
merce and manufactures go hand in
hand, and if we do not encourage man
ufacturing by substantial aid, we will
soon lose our commerce,

DC SLAUGHTER, OFTIPTOH

This worthy citizen, and formerly a
member of the Tennessee Legislature, is
doing as much as any man in West Ten.
nessee, to promote the great interests of
the south. He has established an ex-
tensive stock farm near COvingtOn, and
we are grstifed TO know is meeting
with peeuniary success, while supplying
the country with what is so much need
ed, Durham and Llderney or Jersey
cattle, Berkshire hogs, Cashmere goats,
ETC., etc. Mr.. Slaughter has forwarded
butter to this city, made from heifer
nineteen months old, giving q large
amount of milk while furnishing an
abundance for a fine calf. We have
seen a specimen OF wool from Cots
void buck which shed nineteen pounds
last week, and It cannot be surpassed.
The interest which Mr.. Slaughter is
manifesting in stock-raising and his
success is another favorable pressge as
to the future of the south. 1t shows
that our people are determined to d.
versify their products, to increase their
breeds Of horses, cattle, hogs, sheep and
goats. This is the way to reclaim the
Impoverished, desolated south. We
wish our enterprising friend Of Upton
much success in his worthy enterprise.

WE often hear men say Memphis is
bound to be a.grest city. Why? She
possesses such remarkable advantages;
she is in the center of the finest cotton
and grain region; she is onithe great
Mississippi, below all distractions Of ice
or low water; she is on the dividing line
between the cotton and grain States.
This is all true, but these very advan-
tages may be her ruin, if unaccompanied
by enterprise, or rather if they destroy
enterprise. Let every man in the city,
rich and poor, feel that it is his interest
as well as his duty to improve the city,
and new state Of things will be exhib-
tied. II every man looks only to his
own business, whether it be great or
small, the city will dwindle into COM
parstive insignifcance. We cannot
stand still-we must either advance or
retrogade. Which shall it be? We
must remember that money expended
for works Of public utility add to each
mans individual wealth.

EDITORS APPEAL-For three weeks
Nessrs. White and Bliss have been con-
Quoting most delightful, and seemingly
effective, meetings at the Operahouse
and Exposition building. These houses
have been brilliantly lighted at night,
and provided with everything to render
the audiences exceedingly comfortable.
The Exposition building has been fitted
up handsomely and conveniently with
scstings for five thousand people, and at
much cost. Now, l want to know who
fOots the bills? l have attended many
Of the exercises with pleasure, instruc-
ton, edifcgtiOn and profit. II these
large expenses are to be borne by the
public, by subscriptions, l consider it
my duty to bear my part, and l desire
you to inform me who has been appoint
ed to receive subscriptions. / have no
doubt hundreds OF citizens would gladly
contribute to this noble work If they
knew how to do it. ELIZABETH.
In answer to our correspondent, We
can only say that on Tuesday, the elev-
enth OF May, at a meeting Of citizens,
the following named gentlemen were
appointed q committee to make arrange
ments for the evangelists: E. M'Davitt,
Issac n. Snowden, E. T. Keel, J. Hatch
EFT, J. NJ. Beatty, J. c. Mills, J. w.
Caldwell, ]. X. Goodwin, w. J. HOpson,
/. II. Palmer, F. Vsnhorn, R. G. Dan
ieI, T. h. Rice, Z. G. Jones, E. Il. Por-
ter, w. J. Armstrong, John Johnston,
J. w. Vogeli, w. L. Marsh, F. C. Scha-
Der, S. c. Rogers and DR.. Malone. This
committee, we presume, has made col
Iections; if not, it is time they had. The
expenses attending the meetings at the
Operahouse and the Exposition build
ing, where so much good has been ac-
complished, ought to be paid by the
great mass Of our religious people. In
deed, we think it ought not to be left to
the committee to make the collections.
The good people who have prOfted
by the Iabors of Messrs. Whittle
and Bliss, and who have SO far
sustained them by their presence, should
go farther and put their hands in their
pockets TO defrsy the expenses. Per-
hsps they hsve done so. If not, "
ought TO lose no time in sending libeI |
subscriptions to either Of the gentlemen
named. The APPEAL has heartily and
sincerely Endorsed the lsbOrs Of WhIttle
and Bliss as Astounding in good results,
and we think them eminently deserving
all that the people Of Memphis can do to
uphold their hands while they pray and
preach. They ask nothing. But we
ask and urge that liberal subscription
be raised to defray the expenses attend
ing their mission.

SPAIN is the 6ete nOir Of Europe as
Cuba is Of America. Together with the
Carlist war, which continues on a larger
and more promising scale than ever,
and the Cuban war, in which the patri-
OTIS are every day successful, the govern
ment Of Alfonso is threatened with over
throw by the Republicans, who are
again becoming FESTIVE. The London
ISn1e8'8 Madrid correspondent, alluding
to these movements, says those who are
watching the course of affairs in Spain
are satisfied that the Alfonsist govern
ment is apprehensiye. They assert that
the Spanish ambassador at Paris has re-
newed his complaints relative to the
tolerance Of Csrlism on the frontier, and
has warmly protested against the osten-
sible charity jeteS, the real object Of
which is to raise money in Paris for the
Carlists. It is supposed that France
will pay less attention to these COM
plants than formerly, as Germany at
present takes slight interest in the cause
of King Alfonso, whose government is
too eak to pursue q course agreeable to
Germany. A competent authority, an
Gttaohe Of the Spanish embassy in Paris,
officially reports that the Carlists muster
forty-five thousand good soldiers, besides
an equal number Of second-rates, and
will continue to be victorious SO long as
the war is conducted as at present.
