With reference TO The cable re-
port that "the Vatican is taking
measures for a very considerable
development of Catholicism in
America the Rev. DR. McGlynn,
Of St Stephens Catholic Church,
New York, says: "This dispatch is
essentially improbable if not ab.
surd. The spread of the Roman
Catholic church in America can
only be gradual. 1t must result
from the gradual propagation of
the faith, whether from the birth
Of children of Roman Catholic pa
rents, the immigration of Roman
Catholics, or the conversion of non
Roman Catholics. The church in
America has never ceased to en-.
deavor to extend its circle of inAu-
ence, which it believes to be for the
good of those that are included in
it. This it has done mainly by the
education Of young men for the
priesthood, the establishment Of
new biShoprics, but not before they
are actually needed, and the sub
division Of older ones. Undoubt.
edly Cardinal McCloskey has had
good news of the church to com
municate to the Vatican, but no
of a character to justify this tele
gram"

How to succeed.

The first requisite to success is
not to undertake an Anwise aud
impracticable thing. For this rea.
son, tho advice often ineulcated BY
wise and great men has been to give
much time and reflection to the
formation of plans. Be slow to de-
eide; but having resolved, be
prompt to act. Ii is not sufficient
by any means, to be prompt in be
ginning 10 act. That is easy to
every one. 1t is the continued
persovering, unfagging activity,
which alone accomplishes great re-

THE ELECTION MKT WEEK.

The election for governor, con-
gressmen and members Of the legis-
lature comes off in this State to-
morrow week, the 5th Of November.
Judge Marks, Of franklin county,
is the Democratic nominee for gov
ernor, and his last competitor is
Col. Edwards, Of Cleveland, East
Tennessee. The canvass has been
going on for some weeks in Middle
Tennessee, but the people in this
end of the State have had
other and more serious matters to
think Of, and for the last two months
have given but little attention to
politics. We presume that Judge
Marks will be elected by a sweeping
majority. The candidates for gov
ernor have no appointments for
West Tennessee, aud are not likely
to make any, Those who choose to
vote atall will be governed by party
afilistion or personal preference;
or impressions received through the
press. Those who left here to at
tend The Democratic convention
which nominated Judge Marks on
the l4th Of August, are nearly all
still refugees from the epidemic,
while those remaining have been
engaged in the great canvass of life
and death. The survivors will take
very little heart in the election
The refugees will not all return lol
two Or three weeks, and when they
come they will have private affairs
of pressing Importance to attend to
Many Of them will find their busi.
ness well nigh ruined, their houses
robbed and in a state of confusion
So it is safe to say that the vote
polIed WILDE the smallest recorded
in Shelby county for many years.

AN unmistakablo killing frost
fell last night, and thin ice formed
in the cutters of the streets all
over the city. The end has come
at last, and while there will be a
few cases OF yellow fever for several
days to come, common sense and
the experience of all former cpl
denies plainly teach that those who
do not have the germs Of the dis
ease in their systems and who occupy
or move into we'll ventilated and
disinfeeted houses, are safe. There
was ga nipping eager air" this
morning which every one was eager
to inhale. Overcoats and fires arc
necessity. The day of deliver
ance has come, and once more we
hope to look upon the faces of oul
long-absent friends. The an
nouncement of the board Of health
which appears elsewhere, gives as
surance that this is about to be re.
allied. Let us all with gretefuI

ognized by the people can be held
in this district between now and
the election. The time is too short,
and it would CRATE harshly upon the
public mind for any man or party
to stir up the cauldron of political
strife at such time. In view of
this state of affairs, Hon Casey
Young has issued a short ad-
deess to the voters Of the Tenth
congressional district, in which
he wildly describes the situation
and concludes by announcing
himself a candidate before the peo-
pie Of all parties for reelection to
congress. Under the exceptional
circumstances which exist this was
the only way he could become a
candidate. He was virtually in the
field before the epidemic appeared,
but since then until now has held
his candidacy in abayence to high
er duties which devolyed upon
him. His career for four years in
congress is before the people; his
work there was the best possible
canvass. He has made a national
reputation by his upright course,
fairness and ability. He has ac-
complished more for his constitu-
ents than any Of his predecessors
since the war, and with his expert,
ence, high-standing and influence
can certainly do as much for the
people Of this section as any man
they can send. The people of the
South have learned that training
and experience count for something
when practical measures are to bt
accomplished. Col. Young en-,
Ijoys the largest confidence of hi
constituents and the respect Of al
parties. No good reason coult
be assigned for retiring
him at a time when he cal
be SO useful. Indeed many woult
regard it as very unfortunate foI
an inexperienced man, however
worthy and personally popular, t,
be sent up from this district jus
now. The people who vote on tn
5th prox. will settle this question
and if we are not mistaken, tn
indications are that they will elec
their true and faithful public scrv
ant Casey Young by a vote which
will be compliment 70 him au,
their own intelligence.
As to the legislature no candidate
have been announced, and we hav
heard of none in the.feld, althoug'
several names have been spoken o
1t is important that the peopl
should select capable represents
tives. No organized movement ha
been heard of to placs a party, 0

Memphis will have to ask for som

send men who have the interest
the city at heart, who can at leai
draft a bill, and are likely to hav
some inaence. The field is opeI
: however, TO any and all who chooi
to announce themselves.
