Chattanooga Times, 18th: Day before

Of tho Tennessee Iron and Steel Works,
received an order for ten tons gross
small iron, being nearly all halfinch

demanded that the iron be On he IA by
2 p N. yesterday. There was not a piece
Of iron in the mill Of the description or
dered, nor a pile" fit to work it from.
The whole thing had to be from the
stump" so to speak and all within ten
working hours. At noon yesterday that
car load OF iron. ten gross tons, was on
the car AMI the bill Of freight receipted.
Every ounce Of it was made after the
order was received. Mr.. Sco6eld says
he, in all his experience OF thirty years
as an iron man, never did nor heard Of a
like feat being accomplished.

THERE is Just one more act essential
to the completion OF the Beecher-Iilton
drama, and then the curtain might TAU
and the lights be put out. That is a con-
fession from Henry Ward Bescher. Let
him acknowledge, while yet IN the tnll
possession of his mental powers, that he

The day may come when his dormant
conscience shall rise up within him aud
force the truth from his blasphemous
lips. But the weak. deserted woman he
has ruined held out for four years, aud
be has a strength which may sustain
him many years longer. Somehow we
think the truth will come out before he
dies and that Beecher will turn witness
against Beeeher. He once said, in a
moment Of mortal terror at the moral
ruin he had wrought, Il wish l we're
dead" WhSn that old feeling
over him again be may unexpectedly TO

upon by the Senate Finance
Committee,

WASHINGTON, April l1.-SENATE-The
following is the full text of the resump.
ton bill agreed upon by the senate
6nauee committee to-day and reported
to the senate with favorable recommen-
dalton:
An act to amend an oct to provide

and for other purposes. That from and

States notes shall be receivable in pay
ment for United States bonds
now authorized by law to be issued,

funding and all other lawful purposes
whatsoever, to an amount not exceeding
10 whole the amount then in circulation
and in the treasury, and the said notes,
whether then in the treasury, or thereaf'
ter received under any act of congress,
and from whatever source, shall be
again paid out, and when again re-
turned to the treasury they shall not be
cancelled or destroyed. but shall be issued
from time to time with like qualities
and all that part of the act of January
IA, 1875, entitled an act to provide for
the resumption of specie payments, au.
thorizing the retirement Of eighty per
cent. of the United States notes, shall

LOCAL POLITICS.

Now is the time for those who seemed
so anxious to purify local politics a few
months ago to take q hand in a very
effective way. A mass meeting is to be
held at Cochran Hall at IL o'clock a. N.
tomorrow. The resignatios of the execu-
tive committee will be rendered, its term
having expired. Ali power is derived
from and inherent in the people. In the
appointment Of an executive committee
by the Democratic and Conservative pso'
pie certain implied authority to act for
the people and the party ia conferred.
The committee calls conventions, sees to
the apportionment of delegates from each
ward in the city and district in the coun-
", and looks after the management of
the canvass generally. Such usages are
common to old parties, and have been
almost from the formation OF the gov
ernmeut. The ommittse TO be appoint
ed to morrow, it is expected, will serve
two years, with power to fill all vacan-
cies that may occur. The principal
work to be done will be in the two cleo
tons which occur this year. A position
on the committee is not generally con-
sidered desirable, as it brings neither
pay nor praise, aud the duties take up
considerable time, and their faithful dis
charge often subject the members to IN
kind and unjust criticism. However,
there are always competent and honora-
bic gentlemen willing to serve for the
good of the party, and we understand
that several excellent citizens, such as
Colonel ]. W. Clapp. DR.. s. R Clarke,
Col. Taylor, W. S Bruce, W. N. Brown,
DR.. D. T. Porter, L. B. Mcfarland,
Major Busby, NJ. P. ~Jarnagin, Major N.
D. Menken and various others Of unques.
toned integrity aud executive ability
would chesrfully serve if appointed. OF
course we have not seen ell these gentle
men, but know that there is an abundance
Of good material from which to select
the committee. The appointment Of
good men who command the respect Of
the community will insure a harmonious
canvass this summer and fall, the
hearty cooperation Of the best elements
such as went into the Bartlett movement
and the election of State and county off.
GERS who will make faithful public Off
Gers and give general satisfaction.

THRMAN WHO SPAWNED AND OPENED
THE MISSISSIPPI.

Captain James B. Eads, the distin.
guished civil engineer Of this country, if
not OF the age, will speak at 1.-THE Memphis
Theater this afternoon upon the improve
ment and bridging Of the Mississippi
river. He will no doubt present much
valuable Information which could not be
obtained from any other source. Alargs
and intelligent audience of ladies and
gentlemen will certainly be present and
give him undivided attention. The great
bridge at ST.. Louis over the Mississippi
river is a monument to his genius and
perseverance, which will be pointed
to with pride and wonder in future
ages. The jetties which be has
constructed at the mouth of the Mis-
aissipi river give promise Of permA'
nent success. When this as a fact il
once generally admitted, as we hope il
soon will be. the grain trade of the
Northwest will be diverted to New Or
leans, that city will recover its ancient
prestige and power as the commercial
metropolis Of the South, and the whole
system of transportation 10 the South
west will be reyolutionized. There would
then be one Southern port at least to DE-
the business Of the South and Yves
rivaling New York and Boston. Th'
Mississippi river is the natural outlet TO
the vast region it drains. The railroad
which force business across the continen
to Northeastern ports are the artltcia
channels Of trade and travel created b.
the concentration Of capital at Boa
ton, New York, Philadelphia and Balti
more. All the interests Of these cite
have been autagonized to Captain Eads
plan for opening the mouth of the Mis-
sissippi river. We hope be will succeed
not only in securing the instruments OF
fered by the government, but in keeping
the mouth Of this great river open Il

ing trade. The mar who could bridgl
