uttersnces. He left bis pri
vate business and took the
field for the 6rst time. in years,
because it was q time for all true Dem
ocrats to compromise differences Of
opinion and redeem the State from
Republican misrule and misrepresen-
tation. This was before 0'Conner's s
death; before he could have had any
thought Of entering the political arena
with personal ambition to crafty.
His services we're needed and he re-
sponded to the call of his party, and
now that his name has been suggested, +,
we can think Of no one more suitable
to take the place that General Bate
filed so we'll for twelve years. Major
O'Conner came in only at the Cincin-
natl convention in July 1880, where he
so generously illustrated the spirit OF
Tennessee hospitality. He had not
had time or an opportunity to
render any special or dis
tinguished service, so that practically
speaking, Colonel Looney, if appoint
ed, would be the same as the direct
successor Of General Bate, who was
appointed at the convention in New
York July 1868, which nominated
Seymour and Blair. 1t is hardly nee
essary to say in this State, where Col
onel LOoney is so we'll known, that he
is in the prime of life, full Of energy has
sound, liberal views and would make
splendid campaign manager. He has
the time and the means necessary to
devote to such a position, and by his
commanding appearance. address and
executive ability would contribute
largely to the great Democratic victory
that with prudence and proper man
agement will be secured in 1884. No
mistake can be made in the appoint
ment Of such man.

AS foreshadowed in yesterdays
LEDGER, there is some prospect that
an agreement may be reached yet as
to a basis for settlement of the city
debt. There seems to be spirit of
compromise on both sides. A public
meeting is called for Saturday night
to consider a modified proposition.
We are in favor OF settlement, but
one that can be carried out without
any further default, one that is prac-
ticable aud that we may reason
ably hope to carry out
The LEDGER favored the repeal Of
the old charter, and aided to have it
done: favored the establishment of
the Taxing District government, and
sustains it yet as the best form of
municipal government ever yet de-
vised. But we havA never squinted
at reputation. Necessity alone forced
a suspension Of payment. We believe
that the time has come to settle, and
that our creditors will meet us in
a spirit Of compromise and fairness.
They have their rights and their re
course at law. Even if they had no:,
Memphis should do what is equitable
and right. This old debt is the only
cloud lowering over Memphis. We
believe that now is an opportune time
to settle. The Peters plan met our
hearty approval, but if that cannot be
carried into effect, Sould it not he
better to compromise a little more
in order to secure a settlement
SoT? Itstrikes us so. The debt is
growing all the time. Let us take il
by the throat before it is too large to
ever handle. The thoughtful people,
those who have something at stake
and could not pull up at days notice
and land somewhere else just as we'll
of, should come out tomorrow night
and attend the meeting at the Green.
law Opera House. The action taken
may settle the vexed question finally,
or if not, will probably unsettle it
indefinitely.

private's experience during the war,
arrived in the city this morning and
will remain some days. His book
has been extensively sold North and
South, and is generally recognized as
picture that could only have hoen
drawn by one who had been through
all the varied scenes described. The
Northern press has been as generous
as the Southern in its notices
Mr.. Watkins has done a good work.
His book is unique; it is lifelike and
realistic, therefore different from
most war histories written by staff
officers, Generals and amateur war
riors who looked on at a safe and com
Portable distance. Old soldiers on
both sides have read the work with
interest and pleasure. 1t will live and
have a place in libraries when many
of the so called histories will be hard
to find if in existence at all. The book
reads just as the old soldiers talked in
camp on the march, before and after
battle, in the hospital and under all
the phases and circumstances that
tried the souls and bodies Of web
footed johnny Rebs. Mr.. Watkins is
quiet, pleasant-faced man, a little
