ever, that in the long run such pro-
cedure would not bring so much glory
to the Republican cause rs the party
leaders would like, but would so dis
gust the intelligent public Us to make
many votes for the Democrats. From
this point of view the Democratic
Senators would not be sorry to see the
Republicans go 10 such extreme
lengths in their attempt to annoy and
harrass the Cleveland administration.
Numerous forgotten incidents in the
history of the executive and Legislative
branches of the government have been
brought TO light in the study of the
records of the Senate, which has fol-
lowed the presentation of the Ed
munds report. Among these is the
fact that in President Madison's time
the Senate made an effort 10 Join the
President in making an appointment.
Instead of passing any resolution ON
the subject, however, the Senate ap-
pointed committee TO visit the Presi-
dent and advise with him about GER
tain appointment. President Madi-
son received the committee court
eously and listened to what they had
to say. Then he reminded the Sem
ators that il was the duty of the ex-
ecutivc to send nominations to the
Senate, and itwas not the duty OF the
Senate TO tell the executive whom he
should nominate, and that was all the
satisfaction the Senators got from their
visit.
1t is likely that before the minority
report of the Judiciary Committee is
presented to the Senate, IL will be sub
mitted to the Democratic Sena' ors in
caucus, as the members Of the COM
mittee think that in a matter of 40
much Importance the Senators should
know in advance TO what they will be
asked TO give their united support.
Messrs. Pugh and Jackson have been
following independent lines of re-
search in looking up material for the
report, and win compare notes to-
morrow. Mr., Vest has been too i'll to
take part in the matter, and Mr.. Coke
takes hardly as much interest in the
subject as his colleagues on the com.
mittpe.

mortal service in honor of Gen. w. \,
Hancock was held at Governors
Island tonight under the auspices Of
the Military Institute. Among those
present were Gems. Daniel Il. Sickles,
J. b. Gordon, G. 2. Stone and the Of
ticers of the garrison. Gen. Fry pre-
sided. Gen. Hancock's chair was
draped with black and emblems OF
mourning hung ON the walls.
The feature of the evening was a
paper by Gen. W. +. Smith. He
spoke with great admiration of the
dead, and related some "reminiscences
of the field.
Letters were read from Samuel ].
Tilden, Secretaries Bayard and Endi-
colt, Col. John Hay, Gems. Sherman
and Sheridan, George w. Childs, John
Jacob Astor, A. j. Drexel, Gen. q. +,
Mead, Col. Fred. Grant and others.
In his letter Secretary Bayard high
ly praised the patriotic position of
Gen. Hancock in the Presidential con
troversy of 1876.
Gen. Sherman, in his letter, said
During the period of my command
of the army, from 1869 TO 1884, had
many opportunities to visit Governor
Island and to witness the personal in
terest and satisfaction Gen, Hancock
had in your institution, and his every
measure was calculated 10 highten
the love OF the military profession and
TO encourage the young officers Il
prepare for whatever dangers might
beset our country in the future. Nc
matter what his opinions were they
were always strong. He was knightly
loyal to his superior officers, and
obeyed their orders with implicit con
fidence."
Addresses were afterward made and
appropriate resolutions adopted.

CnICAGo, ILL, February 25.-All the
evening papers say: 1.-TWO prominent
brokerage houses here are on the
point, it is said, of establishing their
own houses in Wall street to execute
their stock orders. II is n notable
move, and is OF interest both at New
York and Chicago. A Chicago broker
has poor show when it comes TO the
divide on stock business between him

rake off is making the Chicago man
out OF patience, and before another
sixty days several Chicagoans will
have housesof their own at New York.
The fact that 10 many OF the specula-

The Dallas Cock Flights.

GALVESTON, TEX, February 25.-The
NelCs's Dallas special says: The third
and closing day of the great cooking
main between ST. Louis and Dallas
birds opened yesterday with the
twelfth battle. The betting was very
heavy and the battles were extremely
vicious, being between heavyweight
cocks. st. Louis won the first battle
of the day, and the twelfth of the
main, tieing the score. Dallas won
the thirteenth, and again led. St.
Louis won the fourteenth and fif-
teenth, and the last battle opened
with the two cities again tied. This
contest, TON which so much depended,
st. Louis pitted a handsome cooking
weighing six pounds and four ounces,
Dallas q blue Bed II one ounce
heavier Before the birds were put
down $500 was bet on the result of
the battle, st. Louis giving odds Of
500 TO $50. The Dallas bird forced
the fighting from the start, and in the
fifth round killed the Missourian and
won the main. The st. Louis men
claim that they lost the eleventh bat
tie owing to an unfair decision by the
referee.

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-02-26

A CORRESPONDENT OF the Louisville
Times sneers at the Rev. Messrs.
Daniel and BOggs. Well, that is easy
of accomplishment. A bootblack
could give this friend of the Converses
twenty in the game and beat him.
But it is the best the opponents of our
good friends could do. They could
not say anything to their damage or
detriment as men or as ministers of
the gospel, nor could they disparage
the ability and scholarship that makes
them conspicuous among the divines
of the Presbyterian Church. Their
course in the Converse trial must
commend them anew to the church,
OF which they are faithful servants.
They have made manly vindication Of
their characters and sustained them
selves at all points as jealous only Of
that which all men value and that
should be especially dear to protesting
Christians. They have done just what
was to be expected OF them, and their
neighbos in Memphis of all creeds
are more proud of them than ever.

FORREST CRY, ARK, February %. -
On the 23d instant Henry Wood, re
Gently from Marshal county, Missis-

Ark, while en- route from his Missis-
sippi home, stopped off at Forrest
City to see Mr.. Turley. When the
train started he ran out OF Wynne,
Dennis & Beck's store to get aboard,
stumped his toe and fell with his
hands on the rails, and both
arms were crushed so as to
require amputation, the left
three inches below the shoulder joint
and the right Just above the wrist. No
blame is attached to the railway en-
ployes, but, through the kindness of
the general manager and superintend-
ent OF the Memphis and Little Rock
railroad, the surgeon of the road, j. b.
Cummins, was instructed by telegraph
to spare no pains or money to alleviate
his sufferings Their kindness is gem
orally very much appreciated here
Wood is doing well and receiving

In the special from Jackson the our
correspondent devotes to the Inter
state Convention there will be found
something in reference to the views
entertained by the delegates of the
Northwest as to the South and its re-
sources thai will be most encour-
aging reading to all OF the AP-
PEAJ's readers. 1t is in telling
contrast with the statements of two
Southerners who prefer to go on as
their fathers did before them and raise
nothing but cotton. With all our
boasted civilization, it takes a long
time to get even profitable lesson
into some skulls. 1t is almost as hard
as getting a joke into Scotchman's
head. But we have faith in
the power of the Inter
State Convention to overcome even
the prejudices of these hard heads and
put them safely on the road to pro-
gress By modern ways and means,
The planters Of the South will never
be prosperous until they make cotton

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-02-26

Our jackson correspondent has sent
us another interesting special devoted
toState politics. 1t will be found on this
page. Part of it is devoted to an in
terview with Sweetwater gentleman,
who deals the Shelby Democracy a
well-deserved blow square between
the eyes that it will do for our home
readers to remember. This gentle
man prefers the gallant Dibrell
for Governor, and has, to use
colloquialism, "no use for Bob Tay'
lor," whose highest qualification for
Governor, it is generally conceded, is
that he plays the fiddle after the most
approved "yawp" style and can tell
broad anecdotes. Our Sweetwater
friend makes an admission that will
be read by APPEAL subscribers with

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-02-26

"RAEBLER" makes a very striking
contrast this morning between the
negro and the white revivalists, very
much TO the advantage of the former.
They have more lung power, more
staying power, more animal magnet
ism, more rich, hot blood and more
vital energy, and they can get up en-
thusiasm on shorter notice and keep
it up longer. Then, too, they have
the advantage of congregations that
surrender themselves to weaving
way quicker and to more abandoned
degree than the whites.
