Memphi- lawyer-, who, have aM

can go and return from Brownsville
the same day, instead of two or more
to and from Jackson, at additional expense-to
clients. They insist that the
Democracy ol Haywood have done

fully as othe.s, and that, if any politi
cal rea-on -Imuld be looked to, the
Haywood ooaatjp tax-jiayers desrve
as well of the Legislature ils any other
citizen-. We think that questions of
this Mtrl should not be entertained.
But the place of the court should lie
determined by the convenience of the
bar and the people.
As THLltE is no longer any doubt
that a Convention will be called, and
that every re-ident of the Suite over

his hand into a gentleman's pockets,

now that Dr. Whitk has commenced

will tell the who'e truth,

..A..n.Ut,t tlinu f.irefjillinir the de-
cision of the United Stetoa Supreme
I'ourt, which will undoubtedly declare
the legal tender act unconstitutional
about the end of the year. This ac
tion of the Secretary will undoubtedly
cause temporary distress throughout
the country, create a panic in produce
and general merchandise; but as the
rte has to be taken some timefhe
pn-ent is considered-the most con
venient, politically better indeed than
at any other period not so remote
from a Presidential election." It is
further said that among "the numer-
i ous financial measures in contempia-
tion by Secretary Hoitwkll, is one
I to replace the five-twenty bonds about
j due by a large foreign loan. This has
often been contradicted, but is never-
less now about to be agreed upon
with the agents of foreign bankers
now in this city."
It does not follow that Fathei Hy a
i i nth e, the great French pulpit ora-
Xot. is no Catholic, because he i- act u-
! ally catholic, magnanimous and lib-
n,., a member of the Catholic Church,
asserts that right. Whether he w ill
continue to be recognized, remains to
be -ecu. There is no greater cruelty,
nor any more evident crime than that
of ostracising and undervaluing men
on account of. their opinion. These
an. n(t th.' result of volition, but of
intellectual and moral forces, not to
be overcome. Make it unpopular or
injurious to lie known as holding a
true opinion or a false one, and men
will act from motives growing out of
st ilish natures, and cease to follow
their convictions. Make it popular
and advantageous to belong to a par
ticular church, or avow a particular
opinion, trueor false, and you will have
the land swarming with hypocrites.
Freedom of opinion, not merely the
oretic, is a safeguard. That public sen
Bmrnt. mure feared than the laws,
which compel men often to conceal
their opinions, or to avow those they
. do not at heart believe, is a form of
j tyrannous manifestation which is In
1 finitely demoralizing, and often drives

hatha, w hen they are too frank and
candid in their natures to resort to

This is the language of a large heart-

Something About tlie Disposition of

The auction )usiness generally is

jobbing und dealing as well as to the
consuming conn luiulv, and wen? tin
benefits of thetusiness, when legiti
mately conduced, more geneially
understood, auctions would be more
frequently resorw?! to for the sale of
goods. Thespirit of competition runs
- high, that goods briug a higher
ti'iire than their owners could pos- i
sibly get for tliem at private sine.
There are many traders very MMttb
of this fact, and frequently consign
their stock to tin? hammer ot the auc-
tioneer, as the most profitable disposi-

TDK sfllElUKE's AVCTIOXEER.
The resKftablf class of auctioneers,
of whom there are many wealthy and
worthy representatives in New York,
are generally men of education, and
possessed ol a remarkable know ledge
of the value of all kinds ol goods and
merchandize. The one thing neces
sary to the success of an auctioneer is
inflexible honesty, that buyers and
sellers may both leel perfect con tidence
in him.
The auctioneer who has once
achieved that very enviable reputa
tion may reckon upon abundant pro
fessional boaiaeaa.
It is somewhat amusing to attend a
shwitl's auction tale, ami even iustrnc-
tive ill a business point of view. Mr.
Kichard Walters, the present incum
bent of that office, is a keen, sharp
man, who has given much general
satisiaction, both to the sheriff, whom
he is in duty bound to please, to the
creditor, w hose tlaim is to be satisfied,
and to the people and dealers w ho fre
quent his sales.
.Merchants and traders eagerly watch
the actions of the auctioneer, who
amuses them with witty elaborations
upon the value, uses and appliances
ot the article, and manages to keep
his patrons in the best ii humor.
There is merit in his jests free
from the cant and slung of other
branches of the profession. His bid
ders are always in good humor, and
hence give higiier prices for articles
than they would at regular trade
a lea.
For all his manifold ilaUea, the
sheriffs auctioneer must lie a Ban o
quick perception, calm temper, and
Steady w it. He has to please ail par
ties, settle buyer's disputes, and to
transact his business so as to legiti
mately keep w ilhin the law, and en
tail no suits upon the sheriff, who is
responsible for all errors or want of
judgment on the part of his deputies
and auctioneer.
Besides all this, the auctioneer must
be thoroughly conversant with the
value of all kinds of giKuls, wares and
merchandise, from the richest Brus
sels carpet down to the commonest
article iu culinary use. He must know
the worth of plate, Baoks. paintings,
and furniture oi all kinds, in order to
impress their value upon buyers.
He must iiave a pretty shrewd
knowledge of the law too, in order
not to involve tin- sheriff in needless
lawsuits, as many- auctioneers have
done hei lofore, though Mr. Hit-hard
Walters, the present auctioneer, is free
from the odium ol any such mistakes.
At his saU-s great rtiayatfh and syste
matic order an- characteristic of hi
business doings.
The sheriirs auctioneer is rich in
shrewd dodges to invite custom, and
a recent episode at a sale of a house in
Chatham street exemplifies Mr. Wal
ter's admirable H-rceptiou. The
property offend was not of the most
marketable character, in fact it w as a
cry bad lot, BM buyers were slow in
bidding. The mictioinjer was at his
wit's end to stimulate them. The
god of music inspiri-d them, however,
in the personages of a couple of Italian
minstrels, who dropiKsl in to pick up '
a tew penalea.

the 79th year.of his age. Mr. Spoflonl
came to Sew York with his long-tried
partner, Mr. Tileston, from the bat,

They were very successful, and the
