The Memphis Avalanche observe
that Congressman Money of Missis
sippi, is one of the candid sort O
Statesmen who is not afraid to speak
out. He does not seem to care wheth'
er his views are agreeable to his party
or not. He sent a random shot or two
into his own camp the other day in All
interview with New York reporter,
The talk was on general political
topics, and the Colonel said:
He was one of the few Democrats
who opposed the course of his party at
the extra session, not that he believ-
ed the measures introduced were
wong, but because the method adopt
cd of forcing them upon the President
was unwise and hurtful TO the party.
He thought the Southern Congress
men would have done better if they
had taken 10 part in the debates of
the extra session. With the eXcep-
ton of Mr.. Tucker of Virginia, who
made a strong argument, their efforts
were mainly stump speeches for home
which damaged the South
and the Democracy before the tribu-
nal of Northern opinion.
And we may add that Congressman
Money is about three thirds right on
this proposition according to our
1iagonis.

IT is now the fashion among a
limited number of sorehcads and
growlers to berate Senator Lamar for
not behaving himself according To
the code of morals and prOpriety which

laughter, but it was not 50 un-
natural when it is known that Mr..
w. r. Harper the reading clerk of
the Senate, is fully two years younger
than Sam, and Sans gravity is calcu-
lated to mislead any man on the
question of age.
