COnvene the LegIslature.

Tipton Record, Nov. 2s.l
We publish to-day the results of an
interview with some of our merchants
and citizens as to the calling OF the
legislature together by the governor,
to do something for the relief Of Mem
Chis. The fate Of Memphis and all
West Tennessee is in the hands Of
Governor Marks. Our lives and our
property are at stake. Will the gov
ernor take a broad, liberal view Of
the situation and act with that de
gree OF independence that should
always control official actions, and
give us relief from the ills that so Sc
%riously environ us, or will he listen to
the clamor Of thOse who cry "econo.
my There issucha thing in State
affairs, as well as in individual, as be-
ing penny-wise and pound foolish. 1t
would probably cost SIG 900 to con
yene the legislature, but how insig-
niicant this sum, when we look upon
six thousand new-made graves. and
reflect that millions have been lost to
the commerce Of the State by the
presence Of an epidemic for two con-
secutiye years in our midst.

should prevent Governor Marks calling

4 Word OF Warming.

The people ofthis State, aud indeed
Of the whole South, arc watching with
the most painful anxiety, for some
step to be taken by the State of Ten
nesseo. or the city of Memphis, or
both, for tho etfectual and permanent
radiance Of that city from the yellow
fever scourge, Nothing that we can
observe has yet been done. Time is
slipping away a degree of temporary
prosperity is being enjoyed by the cit
liens of Memphis never before equal
ed, and they seem to be wholly alb.
sorbed in their private affairs, giving
rot a moments thought to the great
enemy that lies slumbering in their
midst, waiting only the warmth
Of another summers sun to begin
again its fearful ravages.
Another summer in Memphis like
the last two aud Memphis will cease
to be a habitable place, IL will be a
cursed spot in the fairest land In the
world, serving no other purpose than
TO scatter disease and death around
aad abroad. What are its people
doing? Tho great prosperity that is
now showering It's blessings upon them
is but temporary. Unless something
is done, and to do anything of perma
neat benefit there is no time to waste.
