UNrrsD AGAINST pRorEcrrox

The few Democratic newspapers
which have struck hands with James
Il. Blaine in support OF a protective
ialiif will feel as lonesome as mon
arch in exile when they see how com
pletely they have isolated themselves
from the Democratic party. During
the last four months the Democratic
party has held State Conventions in
near y every State in the Union, and
on the tariff question the general opin-
ion has been expressed that revenue
should he raised solely TO meet the
expenses Of the government, economi-
cally administered, and that exactions
upon the people for any other purpose
is robbery under the forms OF law.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1885.
COL. PATTERSON A CANDIDATE.

The canvass for Congress in this die

shape. The Withdrawal OF HAIRS and
Manson has been followed by the can
didacy Of Col. josiah Patterson, whose
announcement over his own signature
APPEARS ia another column. The cor
vention will have 10 choose between
James Pnelsn and Josiah Patterson.
Unusual interest will be manifested
in the contest, not only in the district,
but throughout the State and the SUI
rounding country. The contrast be-
tween the two aspirsnts is marked
and distinctive. There is discrepancy
OF twenty years in their ages and they
differ widely on political issues. Each
has his adhereDts and admirers; both
ara able aud of late years have been
conspicuous actors on the political
stage. James Phelsn is one OF the
most promising young men OF
the South. ii $ active and ingen-
ious intellect is always equal

discusses, no matter how hackneyed
or commonplace, his views are orig

highest order; his attainments 10 lit
era'ure and the philosophy OF politics
are incompatible 10 these days Of shall
low smartne;s and presnmptuous ig-
nosuce. Col. Patterson is in the
prime OF physical and intellectual
vigor His views on great questions
are enlarged and matursd his reason
ing close, cogent and conclusive; his
dic,ion fJrcibe; his Information ex-
teusive and varied, ard his political
coune cautious and circumspect. He
has worked his way to the front among
the ablest sta smen OF the South. The
contest between two such aspirants
will be watched with uncommon 90
licitude throughout the country, aad
of urse will produce deep interest
in this district. So the convention
makes harmonious nomination
the APPEAL will be satisfied.
The outlook for the Democ attic
patty in this Congressional Dit
trict IVES never 80 reassurlpg
as now. The colored people OF Shelby
county are demoralized, and do not
hesitate 10 say that in the August
election the white leaders forced a
ticket upon them they did not want,
then abandoned the negroes to their
fate, refu'ing 10 contribute dollar to
the canvass, and they openly avow
their determination to defeat Zach
Taylor in November in revenge for
their shameful desertion in August by
the white Republicans. The colored
vote will not be solid in the Congress
aonal election. The floating vote in
this distric', never less than 1000, has
drifted to the Democratic party, Just
Is a mass OF quicksilver attracts the

convention and, either Patterson or

will elect their candidate for Congress
