qualification the opportunity which the
produ-t may afford OF the diversiicatior
OF CROP, and absolute divosee from the
ruipous system heretofore pursued of raising
cotton only.
Resolred, That from the evidence had from
experimental culture in our own State, We
are satisfied that jute can be successfully y
grown in any portion OF the State, the bot
Tom lands bordering on the Mississippi rivel
perhaps being the best suited TO its cultiva
tion or production.
Resolved, That by the invention OF Mr..
Aibeesmith, we are satisfied that the fibel

pared for the process Of submersion in water

The New York Sun states, and very posi-
lively, that a movement has been organized
to bring Grant out nextyea full fedged
candidate for the presidency. The managers
think the "third term clamor," as they call
it, has died out. They claim that new con-
ditions have arisen since 1880, and that the
"prejudices" against Grant have also ceased
to exist. One argument used to promote the
new scheme is the support that Grant gave
to Garfield in the dark hours OF the cam
paign when Blaine had lost his own State,
and the outlook everywhere was dismal and
forbidding. Strange as it may seem, this
scheme is advocated by certain so-called
Democrats who have failed to crafty their
ambition inside the party lines. Grants aid
OF Fiiz John Porter naturally strengthens
him with this class Of persons, and the effect
of it is partially seen in the attentions of
Mcclellan and Of his Immediate friends TO
the aspiring third-lermer during his present
visit to the capital

- THE United States Supreme Court says
that "When creditors are unable 10 obtain
payment OF their judgment against munic-
ipal bodies BY execution, they can proceed BY
mandamus against the municipal authorities
to compel them to levy the necessary tax for
that purpose, if such authorities are clothed
by the Legislature with taxing power, and
such tax, when collected, cannot be diverted
to other uses; bnt if these authorities
possess no such power, or these offices
have been abolished and the power with
drawn, the remedy OF the creditors is by
an appeal to the Legislature, which alone
can give them relief No Federal court,
either on its Law or equity eide,
has any inherent jurisdiction to lay tax
for any purpose, or to euforcs a tax levied,
except through the agencies provided by
law. However urgent the appeal Of cred
itors and the apparent hopelessness Of their
position without the aid of the Federal
court, il cannot seize the power which be-
longs to the legislative department OF the
State and WELD it in their behalf" The
threat Of the bsndholders 10 compel the
Taxing. District government, through the
courts, to levy tax 10 pay The debt Of the
city Of Memphis il, therefore, as Idle az ihe

The business men, mechanics and manu-
facturers, and all who are interested in the
welfare of the city, should attend the meet
ing which we understand is TO be held at the
Greenlaw Operahouse tomorrow night for
the purpose of definitely deciding upon a
plan for the settlement of the debt OF the
city of Memphis. This is a question in
which the poor as well as the rich are inter-
ested, as it will increase the tax burden
which is borne at last by the men who labor
at the various trades, professions and call
ings. The committee appointed at citi-
- meeting held last fall have published
- report recommending that the Taxing
District lssue the compromise bonds; the
APPEAL, representing, as it believes, the
wishes of the people, has given good reasons
for opposing that feature OF the proposed
settlement as being full of dangers to the
stability and perpetuity of the Taxing Dis
trict government. We believe that the peo.
pie are willing, nay, anxious 10 settle the
debt, but they do not want the Taxing Dis
trict to be involved in that settlement, or in
any way to become responsible for the debt
of the city Of Memphis.

In THE report of the citizens' committee
which we published yesterday, we find this
statement: at [the debt OF the city Of Men,
"pbisl is not only repelling capitalfrom COM
sing here, but is drawing away that which is
"already here" The APPEAL on the 1st Of
September in its Animal Review Of the
Trade, Manufacture and Commerce OF the
Taxing District for 1881 so, presented a
different and much more fa,ter-
ing picture than this. We proved
by facts and figures remarkable gains in pop
ulstion and very large incresss in the cap
ital employed in all branches of business,
especially in manufactures, consequences
aud direct result OF the careful and econom-
ical conduct Of the Taxing District govern
men;, which the committee recommends
shall be saddled with the debt OF
the city OF Memphis, the coupons on
the compromise bonds to be receivs-
BILE for all taxes, thus opening a
way for the .ich taxpayers to dis
count their taxes. Let the debt be settled
at fifty-snd-six, but by a commission special
ly appointed for that purpose-the clupous
of the compromise bonds to be taken 10
payment of the interest tax only.
