The petty attack against the city char
ter gives some indiscreet partisans Of
certain persons slightly affected thereby
an opportunity to show their hand.
Some of the ofice-holders mostly inter-
ested for a brief remnant Of q term are
too worldly wise to take any part in the
proceedings, as far as known, That they
sympashize with the effort to subvert the
best interests Of the city may be in
ferred, but is not so apparent. The pc
titioner who plays cat's-paw in this farce
consented cheerfully to his removal from
the captaincy Of a FIRE engine and took
his place as a member Of the company.
But influences were brought to bear on
him aud he changed his mind, thus ex-
posing a want of that 6rmness and de-
cision Of character essential to one who
commands others. Lawyers a be
had when there is a fee in
sight, but those who are worth
retaining do not work for nothing, espe-
cially when defying public sentiment and
public welfare. Mr.. Tim Foley is a poor
man, however worthy, and not able to
pay such a fee as the sacrifice demanded
at the hands of an attorney. 1t might
be inquired who is sufficiently interested
to retain a irstclas lawyer, if that has
been done? Not the people; not the
fremen or patrolmen; not the General
Council. Who2 1t looks very much as
if there was a deeper game in the back
ground than yet revealed, and that when
the curtain is rolled up by the LEDGER
o. by any other agency, some characters
will appear not down on the bills. 1t is
a war between good government and bad
government; between an over-reaching
ring and the people; it is personal
schemes VS.. retrenehment and reform.
The LEDGER will stand by the latter and
hurl Its Javellns at the weak points OF
the enemy, be they whom they may.
TOe issue is this: A charter has been
enacted in the form Of a general law
which saves Memphis fully $4,000 per
month, besides simplifying the govern
ment and improving it in nearly every
respect. But it c@urtails the patronage
of certain officials and reduces one Mr..
Foley from captain of a FIRE company
to the place of high private in the ranks;
therefore the courts are appealed to TO
restore to Mr.. Foley the benefit of his
contract" and to replace the heavy and
expensive machinery Of the old lumber
ing city charter. The taxpayers are
not deceived and cannot be as to what is
involved.

The grasshopper crop ont West is
very promising. The cold winter did
not e~xtinguish the breed; on the
contrary, it strengthened their constitu-
tons and whetted their appetites. and
multiplied their forces beyond the com
~prehension Of the most dextrous census
takers. Eastern papers attribute the
prevalence of the grssshopper plague to
the wholesale destruction OF birds on the
Western prsiries. Dead birds cannot
eat live grasshoppers.
