no, how II is. but we are told that il was
urged upon the authorities that an indi-

40. Postmaster General Jewell was not IN
Office at The time Of the appointment ana
was not in any manncrrospensible therefor
IIe Is in Office now. and bis good work at
the south has shown incompetent, dishon-
orable and dishonest postmasiers what they
NAV reasonably expect. The postmaster
general owes ii not only TO the community
in which this official resides, to the bust
ness men compelled to transact their bust
ness Mt his Office, to the individuals whose
correspondence gees through his hands, but
to honest pos,mSsiers everywhere to make
an example of this man. We believe that
he will DO it, and thus aid in removing un-
lust reproach from the entire service. If
we canno. have business offices filed upon
business principles, we can at least con-
gra' ula,e ourselves that we have post
master general determined to have his de-

Mistakes in appointments may be made,
and it is not surprising that they arctic
wonder is that there are not more of them.
When Postmaster General Jewell receives
the papers in this case we have faith to be

able postmaster to disgrace the service.

maxms familiar to all, which pour their floods oil
light upon the causes of all the disorders in our

the transparent plea of "Titus Oates that he
has discovered "plot" or new rebellion.
Whatever may be the action of the Senate, do
rot doubt the verdict of the people. In the dark
est hour Of our distress have never lost hope that
the Am rican people would, when the facts were

subject the South to the insatiate rapacity OF her
slanderers. have steadfastly believed that the
day would come when any man, wherever cir
education and conviction may have
placed him in the late war, who would raise his
voice in the cause Of honest government, OF
justice, of concord. and Of unity, would crush
through the thin wall of passion which has too

ROFecBoaF.

In Yesterdays APPEAL, mention was
made Of the fact that New York parties
had instituted suit in the United States
circuit court, district Of West Tennessee,
against the Memp his and Paducah rail-
road company. The suit is instituted by
PhilO. &. Calhoun and Lewis e.. Myers,
trustees in the first-mortgHge lOnds Of
the Memphis and Psducsh railroad
company, for the purpose Of Purchasing
said mortgage. The bills allege that
there are about fifteen hundred thousand
dollars Of bonds of this railroad COM
pany in the hands OF different parties in
New York, and the mortgage provides
that the in arrest thereon, at the rate OF
seven per cent, shall be paid semi-an-
nuslly, and upon failure to do so within
ninty days thereafter, the trustees shall
take possession of the railroad; and,
further, that il the company fail to pay
the same for six months after the same
becomes due, the bonds, which are for
thirty years, shall mature. They allege
that the read has failed to pay its
interest for twelve months, and,
therefore the holders Of the
b Jnds have directed them, as
trustees, to fOreclOse the mortgage.
Hence the object of this bill, as it Sp-
pears that the first mortgage bOnd-hOld-
ers have lost confidence in the present
adm inistrstiO1's ability 10 psy off the
roads interest debt and complete the
line. We understand that fifty-three
miles OF the road remain unfinished,
twenty miles Of the line not having been
touched; but that the balance Of the
route is graded, and twenty miles OF it
ready for the iron. We are assured that
If the bOGdhOlders secure possession of
the road they will speedily complete it,
as such will be necessary in order to
make it ali the more profitable to them.
While two million eight hundred thou
sand dollars Of first-mOrtg2ge bonds have
been Issued, only one million nine hun
dred thousand dollars have been nego-
tiated and are now outstanding. The
attorneys for the plaintiffs are General
Pettus, of Alabama, and Patterson &
Lowe, of this city.

The above is no new law, but simply
a new ruling under the old Law, and is
intended to apply as well to milk, bread,
sOdR-water and ice-cream tickets az it
does to any other medium Of change for
daily business transactions. The tax of
ten per centum is to be recovered on the
notes every time they are paid out,
whether by the party issuing the same
or the party by whom they are circu-
lated. The question arises among the
business men in this locality, "DOes this
law apply to State warrants?" The
law was evidently designed to prohibit
the circulation Of all such Issues. The
State Of Tennessee has issued its war
rants as circulating medium, having
gone 50 far as to have them printed in
the style Of the United States treasury
notes or "greenbacks." II the law is
applicable to this issue, and the tax is to
be recovered every time they are
paid out, the notes will soon pay their
face value into Uncle Sans Golfers. In
bringing this question before the people,
have no wish to depreciate the State
credit, for it already has been made to
suffer at the hands of demsgogue pOIiti-
clans. / simply desire some Of the legal
minds Of this State to investigate the
matter and put to rest question which
is apt to be sprung upon US by some gov
eminent official at any moment, where
by the innocent violator Of the law may
be made to suffer.
