Commissioner McWhirter has
suspended Prof Henry E. Cotton,
state geologist, and appointed DIR.
Gattinger. The latter is republi-
can. The former was a democrat
and an efficient officer.-Pulaski
CITIZEN.
Mistake. Both Prof. Cotton and DIR.
Gattinger are republicans. But what
has politics to do with the efficiency OF
a state geologistP There is no democ-
racy in dirt-although there is some
times considerable dirt in democracy
aud no republicanism in rocks. Let
us give Commissioner McWhirter the
benefit of the supposition that he
knows the needs of his Office better
than any outsider.-Lebanon Herald.
The Herald is mistaken in the
supposition 1--WE did not say SOY
that we were finding fault with Mr..
McWhirter's management. We do
not wish to be mistaken, however,
in the other proposition of the Her
aid but want to be known as utter
ly, absolutely and premeditate dly
on the other side. There's no de-
mocracy in dirt nor republicanism
in rocks, but there's honor and
profit in office sometimes and the
democrats are entitled to the whole
of it without reservation or Division.
Flanagan was wiser than his day.
We believe in the absolute suprem-
acy of democracy and inthe total alb
sorption of all political profit and
perqnisites, to the utter seclusion
of republicans. In this we have
twenty three years example set by
our opponents. If there is aught
wrong or selfish in this, it is cured
by their participation. 1t is well
and beautiful to be sentimental and
sweet sometimes, like the Herald is,
but the caststeel truth had as well
be spoken.

The Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zette is making a terrific attempt
to appear. confident and is vigorous
and terrible in its onslaught on
HoadIey, the democratic nominee.
And would you believe it, the only
arguments it uses against him is
his former republican ideas. 1t re-
cites his old-time politics and shows
him up in accord with the republi-
cans before, during and since the
war, up to the time it became so
corrupt that sense of decency i'm
PEELED him to quit it. 1t alleges all
this against him, and yet it believes
it all itself. Ifitis an inducement to
vote against Hoadley because he
once entertained these ideas, is not
the argument doubly intensified
against a man and party that still
holds to them? The c. G. hoists
itself by its own boot-straps.
The Ohio idea on the tariff is
we'll put, terse, covering all the
ground contended for by both fac
lions, emphatic and simple. Mr.
Watterson, the great "Only" apos-
tie, and Mr. Colyar, the sage phi 10
politico leader in southern thought
that is to kill or cure the south's
infant industries, tip glasses across
the chasm-both delighted. The
republicans are crestfallen because
they thought this was to split us,
but they dare not touch this. It's
hot and sthey stand off dismayed
and tremble Read it slowly
twice:
awe favor tariff for revenue linn
tied to the necessities of government
economically administered, and SO ad-
iusted in its application as to prevent
UNEQUAL burdens, encourage productive
Industries at home, afford just eompen-
sat1on to labor, but not to create or fos-
ter monopolies."

China can no longer be looked
upon with the contempt with which
European nations have for ages
regarded her. The recent settle
ment with France is stated to have
been on very favorable terms for
the Celestial Empire. From a dip
lomatic standpoint, the French are
cleverly outwitted. The Marquis
Tseng's residence at Paris enabled
him to discover that France was
not prepared, and did not want war.
His government consequently grew
firmer in its demands. China re-
tires with undisputed sovereignty
over Tonquin and AMMAN, yielding
only the opening of portion of the
provinces to European commerce.

Mr.. Charles Buford attended the
meeting of the Middle Tennessee
Sunday School Association at Leb-
anon last week. The Herald says
"the meeting was very SHINY at
tended, none of the officers of the
association and few of the members
being present" Mr.. Buford is sta
tistical secretary. Wouldn't it be
well to request the resignation" of
those absent officers? What did
they accept office for if they were
going to cripple the association s
power for good by staying away in
a body?

SATURDAYS COTTON MARKET.
On contracts there has been an upward
turn, aud greater firmnoss prevailed during q
portion of the session, with n fair amount of
business doing. Tho movement was not con-
tinuous or liberal, however, and after the
shorts had covered the operations dwin-
died away somewhat, the demand
being principally local. and embraced
only small percentage Of really now busi-
ness, the orders for buying appearing less
plenty than yesterday, and confined to ono or
two houses. There wero two features that
appeared to furnish tho basis upon which tho
upward turn took placo--a hardening of tho
Liverpool advices attracting some attention,
and o reduced interior movement causing
more or less trepidation among buyers. To
those who had carefully calculated the
chances, the reduction of figures Of the in
terror towns following tho largo showing of
last week, was not unexpected, but many
regard tho figures as the precursor of re-
duced past receipts during tho incoming
week. The pivot upon which speculation
now swings seems TO be the movement oil sup
plies, and tho bears can work the prospects
of an addition to somo advantage on tho basis
of tho large accumulation of stocks in sight,
and at tho same time 10 Is also noticeable that
very small shrinkago Of receipts at once
turns the scale in favor Of their opponents,
Although an advance Of about seven points

for the curing of the new crop to enable it TO

In Chicago is less than 100000 bushels, aud
heavy purchases Of year and December corn
by a leading operator are causing apprehen-
sion among the shorts. We think the outlook
is favorable for higher prices Last year the
prices were much higher, viz, 66i. Receipts
are less than the daily shipments. Wheat is
dull with prices shade lower. There is a
slight increase in receipts, while foreign mar
kots show o sluggish tone. The old bear
crowd are again selling heavily, and are very
radical in their belief in lower prices. 1t is
a little risky, perhaps, to talk very bullish OH

trade are bulls, and predict much higher
prices. We believe o good profit can be
made by buying on ali these breaks in wheat
