The Appeal possesses and frequently
displays two very great weaknesses, edi-
torially considered, and no very decided
other kind of characteristic. One of
them is the laushable. habit of torturing
what the leading journals of the country
say on all subjects, whether it be the
transit Of Venus or the recent dog
law" of the Tennessee Legislature as
sustaining the course of the Appeal,
and the other is its manner of disposing
of the yellow fever question generally,
and the report of its presence at Key
West just now particularly. The New
Orleans Times, whose t~ruthfulness the
Appeal so strongly'impugned in q little
matter not many wueks ago, tells that
paper that all reports concerning
the prevalence of yellow fever
as an epidemic in Key West are false,
and the Appeal oun the assertion
of the Times as law, and hui endorses
it to the country: And so another
lying report is disposed Of, and the
friends of those who are in Florida for
their health can rest easy" We wish
that the fever could be crushed at
Key West by this very innocent
remedy of the Appeal, but u%nfortu.
nately it cannot. The dispatches which
announced here its presence at Key
West as an epidemic did not come from
the correspondent Of the New York
Herald, but from the Navy Department
at Washington City, which received it
from the proper officers stationed at Key
West, and no one doubts that the disease
is there. In consequence of this
fact Memphis has an imperative duty to
perform, and that duty is to furnish its
health officers with plenty Of money to
put the city in a condition that will rem.
der it impossible, except under the mosI
unusual circumstances, for the fever to
get in her midst. What does the few
thousands Of dollars necessary to clean
the city amount to when compared tC
the millions we will lose by a visit from
the scourge2 Yellow fever can't bt
driven out of the country or kept out o
Memphis by a wave of the hand, no mat
ter how gracefully given, but protection
from its attack can be given by oul
Board of Health. Let our city fathers
furnish the sanitary officers with money
to make q thorough cleansing oil the city
1t can do no possible harm.

A MODEST ~JOuRNaLIsr,

Maj. Kirby, of the Chattanooga Times,
cannot find it in his heart to tear himself
away from Nashville. he has lately
been appointed Commissioner of the
State Of Tennessee to the international
Geographical Congress and Syndicate Of
Trades to meet in Paris, France, July
II, 1875. 1t is necessary to italicize a
little here to prevent any geographical
confusion of ideas. Kirby intimates in
his last that he knows considerable about
geography, but that he will be cautious
about revealing it, inaSmuch as the Leg
islature failed to make any appropriation
to defray the expenses of Tennessee's
i~nnocents abroad. To have made the
appropriation without the appointment
would not have been half SO great a mis-
take. Another trouble stands in the way.
Gibbs, the Secretary Of State, demands
one dollar as a fee for afixing the Great

on parchment without a big red seal in
corner would be a worse mockOry
than a tinkling eymbal and sounding
brass. There has never been but one
exception to this rule in the Secre.

his absence, when three distinguished
journalists took charge and ran it lust

Anecdotes Of Sheridan.

Sheridan had a way of not opening
letters which we're sent to him. We
quote from Moore: "Smythe, one day,
while looking over his table, while wait
ing to catch him coming out of his bed
room, saw several unopened letters, one
with a corone., and said to Wesley mot
the preacher: We are all treated alike
Upon which Wesley told him that he had
once found amongst the unopened heap
a letter of his own to Sheridan, which he
knew contained fl0, sent by him to re-
lease S. from some inn where he was
'money.bound,' and that he had opened
it and took out the money. Wesley
said, also, that the butler had assuerd
him he found once the window.frames
stuffed with papers to prevent them from
rafting, and, on taking them ant, saw
they we're bank notes, which S. had used
for this purpose some stormy night and
never missed them"
From the same source we learn that
Shaw, having lent Sheridan near $500,
used to dun him very considerable for
it; and one day, when he had been rating
Sheridan about the debt, and insisting
that be must be paid, the latter, having
played off some of his plausible wheed.
ling upon him, ended by saying that he
was very much in want of e25 to pay
the expenses of a journey he was about
to take, and he knew Shaw would be
g~ood.natured enough to lend it to him.
"Pon my word" says Shaw, this is
too bad; after keeping me out of my
money in so shameful a manner, you
now have the face to ask me for more:
but it won't do; / must be paid my
money, and it's most disgraceful," etc,
etc. my dear fellow" says Sheridan,
hear reason; the sum you ask me for
is a very considerable one; whereas |
only ask you for FIVE and twenty
pounds"
When Lord Lauderdale said he would
repeat some good things Sheridan had
mentioned to him. "Pray don't, nv
dear Lauderdale," exclaimed Sheridan.

matter,

The State Penitentiary at Nashville

The increase of convicts since January,
we see by the Banner, has far exceeded
any previous period. The books show
1912 names; 400 of this number are en-
ployed within the walls, and 672 outside.
The warden, Mr.. Cummins, believes the
number will run up to 1900 by next Jan
