A La,Irious Race % PsopIe.

Not g day passes but our city magis-
trates have to hear and determine suits
both civil and criminal originating be-
tween negroes, who have become. the
most litigiSus ace Of people in existence
since they became free by operation Of
war. They are inclined to judicial con-
test-are given to the practice of con-
tending in law, and as Webster, Of die
tionary fame puts it-"A ltigious person
is a bad neigbOr and bad citizen" The
negro race has much tolearn in this con-
nection, but it cannot be expected that 8
people enjoying the license Of the first
decade of years of freedom can possibly
regulate their social habits so al to equal
the superior white race in such matters
1t will take the negro race many centu
ries Of freedom and advancement to ever
approach white civilization ana refine
ment.

saiuFdaV evening, June 3, 1876.
A tennessee Anniversary.

Yesterday was the anniversary Of the
admission Of Tennessee to the Union OF
States in 1896. Tennessee, SO called
from its principal river-the word being
said to signify q curved spoon-was 6rst
settled near Knoxville in 1866, and in
1890 it was organized as a Territory with
Kentucky. Six years afterward it was
admitted to the Union. In January,
1861, a proposition to secede from the
Union was defeated, but in June it was
carried by nearly 10000 majority. In
ten months the State raised City regi'
ments for the Confederate service, while
Eve or six were also recruited for the
Union. The area of Tennessee is 45, 60C
square miles, and the population in 1870
was 1858, 1926. The State is generally
well watered, and, except in the noun
famous parts, comprises q good deal OIL
excellent land, Agriculture is the chic.
occupation of the inhabitants. Indian
corn, wheat and oats are the principa.
corn crops. Cotton is grown in mos
parts of the State, and tobacco is also
considerably cultivated.

aud took it from the Memphis Custom.

and make bases more rapidly than any
crowd that can be gotten up at the APP
peal Office. Already bets of two to one
on the LEDGER nine have been offered,
but there are no takers.
At 10 o'clock last night a heavy wind
storm :rOm the southwest, accompanied
By rain, swept rapidly over the city and
euveloped everything for a time in al.
most inky darkness. The storm broke
up the picnic Of the Knights Of Innisfail
holding at James Park just about the
time that a large crowd Of visitors we're
enjoying themselves to the top of their
bent. There was a rush for shelter, for
hacks and fer home, and in a short time
the garrish lamp-lights were put out at
the park, and the scene of revelry and
jollity was over.
Two Memphis hackmen, discussing the
respective merits Of different nationali-
ties near the Peabody last night during
the rain, anne to the conclusion, as me
Of them expressed it: "Arrah, Mike,
they're the manest people in the werld;
they've not a bit of pride in them. Sure
they'd get wet to the skin afore they'd
take a hack" This simple, but practical
philosophy or method Of reasoning by
the inductive process, Of which the hack
meH knew nothing, contains more reason
in it than appears on the surface, and
reached the proper conclusion quite as
we'll and correctly as if both the Baco-
nian and Aristotlean methods Of reason
ing in all their perfect sylogistic forms
had been employed to reach a logical re.
salt from detached facts.
The convention delegates who returned
from Nashville have not as yet recov-
cred from the effects Of the arguments
10 favor Of initiation and contraction
Many Of the lean delegates naturally
favored imitation, while the fat delegates
quite as naturally favored contraction.
This is probably the true theory on the
great financial question as championeG
on either side by Mr.. Tilden and Mr.
Hendricks. Since the return Of thu
delegates the saloon.keepers have started
! new drinks called Imitation" and con
] traction" and when a client present
himself at the bar, the bar-keeper take
a look at his outline aud determines a
once which of the drinks would pleas
t him. An initiation cocktail should b

5 the contraction whisky toddy should b
the %favorite with all those who wish t
follow the middle course, the happy me
dunn between the two extremes.
