The work on the custOm-hou
drags along very slowly. 1t is fully a
year behind time. We are informed
that the contractors have not even
quarried the stone. There is some
thing wrong somewhere. At this rate
it will take ten or twenty years to
finish thebuilding. The superintend-
ent, a nice gentleman, seems to have
a soft, easy place-nothing to do, no
responsibility in particular.

IT seems likely that the National
Democratic Convention will be held
in some western city. At present,
Cincinnati is fayorably spoken of. 1t
is claimed in Cincinnati that major
ity Of the National Democratic Com
mittee are in favor of holding the
convention there. The wish of board
ing-houses and commercial interests
may be father to the thought. Gin.
cinnati is central location, though
Louisville is nearer the geographical
and Democratic centre of the world
Mr.. Randall is reported to have written
a letter on the subject, in which he says
that the views Of majority of the
committee on the subject were not
known. He is of the opinion, how.
ever, that some western city will be
selected for the purpose of holding the
convention. This is quite conclusive.
There is no longer a doubt that con-
vention will be held somewhere.

MEMPHIS has more vitality, pluck
and enterprise than any place in the
world, that has under gone such trials.
We have the gamest set of people on
the continent, who fully realize that
they must take care of themselves and
have set about it in the right way.
We were informed this morning that
the Leubrie Brothers, who have
already made large investments here,
have offered Colonel John NJ. Lea
$4,000 for the block of buildings
which they partly occupy. These en-
terprlzing gentlemen have great hopes
in Memphis, and are ready to invest
their last dollar here. With such
men and such spirit Memphis is
destined to live and grow apace, re-
gardless of croakers and outside fault
finders. These young men built them
selves up here, and are willing to
stand or fall with Memphis. We
commend their example TO some
big property-owners, who never
give dollar to develop the place, and
would let it rot down if left to them
selves.

THE exodus continues to boom and
no mistake. The negroes are going
North in greater numbers than ever
before. Governor st. John, of Kan
sas, extimates the number who have
gone to that State since last April at
fifteen or twenty thousand. The suf-
tering which exists among them does
not deter others from following. The
movement will work slight incon-
venience and injury to some parts Of
the South, but it will only be tempor-
airy. 1t is the best thing that could
happen and should be encouraged by
the white people of the South. When
the negroes are gone or thinncd out
white labor will be developed and in.
trOduced and we will have new
order of things. BY all means le
them go provided they go far enough
