"THE DO-SOTHIXG CONGRESS.'
"When Jupiter was born, the Cuviles
danced about him, clashing their arms
to prevent his cries from reaching the
para of the devouring Saturn. The
Radicals in and out of congress are imi
tating this example. The Democratic
Biturus are unearthing the corruptions
oT the Ridicals, and the guilty culprits
hope to divert public attention by mat
ing a terrible racket about the do-nothing
congress. It required great labor on
the part of Hercules to cleanse the Au
gean stable, -and it will take several
mouths for the Democratic party to
nose out and expose the Radical corrup
tions committed during the past ten
yenra. The investigations and exposures
already made will save millions to the
g iverument, as tbey have alarmed the
thievep, and the fear of de'ection will
cose the Hood-gates of corruption
When the various committees make
their reports, It will be seen that the
Democratic house of representatives has
been as busy as spring bees and autumn
beaver?. The members are working
zea'iously. Tennessee never had
more faithful men in con
gress than Casey Young, Ad-
kins, "Whitthorne and Bright. Always
in tbelr seats or in the committee rooms,
they are found in the faithful dlecharge
of their dutic?. The same may be said
of every Democratic member. Indeed,
it may be said that instead of being "a
do-nothing" body no house of represent
atives for twenty years has accomplished
more in the same length of time. The
Baltimore Gazette shows what the Dem
ocrats have done, as follows: "The ap
propriation committee, under the lead
ership of Mr. Randall, has examined
into every source of expenditure of the
government, and no one not familiar
with legislation, and few of tho3e who
are,can have any idea of what a stupen
dous labor that js. In the appropriation
bills tbat have been passed by the house
millions of dollars have been saved
to the put lie trsasury, and in the
bills, urfon which no legislative aQ
tion has yet been taken, but which
have been considered in committee, ad
ditional millions will ba rescued from
tae control of the administration. To
be fcure it will require the assent of the
senate and of tae President to give these
reforms the effect of law, but the house
will have done its duty in pointing out
the way to reform and retrenchment.
Mr. Morrison, the chairman of the WBys
and means commitlte, presented a bill,
and Lis committee is now considering it,
which, if passed, will do. more to relieve
the business cf the country than any
bill which has pas;eJ congress since the
Republican party came Into power. It
is a direct b'ow at the outrageous,
swindling tariff which, taken all in all,
is the most monstrous conglomeration
of legislative fraud, corruption and ras
cality that disgraces the statute books of
any civilized country. All tha rings and
ring men who have been prey
ing upon the ccuntry since
1S81 are up in arms against
this bill, and all their organs from Maine,
to Florida and from New York to San
Francisco denounce it as unwise, fool
ish and impolitic. All the monopolies
are orposed to it. The lobbyists are all
against it, and when it pase3 the house,
they look to the senate and the White
House, the headquarters of all that is,
corrupt and.rotten in the government,
to strangle it. Is all this nothing? If
we come down to the minor committees
we fluil the same stern, bold and well
directs' light against the fortified and
strongly intrenched position of the err-,
ruptioDists who are endeavoring to re
tain their hold upon the treasury. Gon
erl Binning, at the head of the mUi
tary committee, has cut down the army
appreciations; West Point has been
snorn oi us esiravnguui, iiupuiuimo, iu.
tha contu'ar and diplomatic service
wnich ought to be abolished al
tozetber and a sensible and less
expensive machinery provided
a large saving ha? been effected;
and In the legislative, executive and ju
dlcial appropriation bill as it now stands
the couatiy has the opportunity to see
how many millions cf dollars have been
stolen and equandered upon that branch
of the government during the last fif
teen years. But the greatest work of all
lias been performed In the uncovering of
the rottenness and crime rf the chief
ofllceis of the government and of their
principal subordinate?. For years and
years it has been ass srtod tbat the ad
ministration was pure and underllod
But what have the inquiries into its
raant getnent ehown? The footsteps or
the bribe-taker and the thieves have
been tracked into the executive man
sion, and if the President himself has
not been proven to be a sharer in the
plunder of the rings, a cloud of suspicion
has teen thrown sround him which will
envelop him to the lt day of his life.
A cabinet nflicer has been ciught cheat
ing tha living and robbing the dead,
and has been impeached in the
name of all the people, before the sen
ate; an ex-leader of the house of repre
sentatives, and within thiity days the
first of our foreign ministera is
virtually on trial, charged with
the swindling of the people to whom be
was accredited as cur representative;
the attorney-general of the United
SUU8 the fir-t law otllcsr of ths gov
ernment, has been ehown to have acted
In so underhand and stealthy a way,
that half the country believt s that he
aided tha escape of the thieves who have
THE
been robbing the government; a secre
tary of the treasury and the secretary cf
the navy, ordered and directed by the
President himself, it has been proven,
used the public monoys to save a rotten
bank; the most gigantic of frauds have
been devtk ped in the pcstoilke, and be
fore the present investigation is at an
end, it will put the present postmaster
general in the pillory, where so many
of his present and ex-brothers of the
cabinet now stand. Why extend the
sickening list? Is all this nothing."
OIK HAXCFACTL'KLS IX ENGLAND.
When, a few weeks since, it was an
nounced that goods manufactured in
America were superior to English goods,
and could be sold at a profit in Europe,
many ridiculed the idea, regarding it as
absurdly preposterous. But tbo facte
indicate that many of the cotton fac
tories in England will be removed not
only to America but to the south. It
has been demonstrated that cotton
which has never been baled or com
pressed makes supeiior cloth, and this
fact of Itself will ultimately make the
south a manufacturing people. It is
only two months since tbat American
prints were sent to the very heart of the
English market, and sold there in large
quantities. The movement was one
that fairly astounded the English print
makers. They conld not exactly com
prehend its meaning, but after a little
while the simple fact forced conviction
into their heads, and now they are ask
ing each other Boss Tweed's famous co
nundrum, "What are you going to do
about it?" Thus far there has been no
satisfactory answer, as the Fall river
men continue pouring In their surplus
fltock, and the English people are so
much better pleased with the styles and
quality than with the goods made near
er home that they are willing to
pay a penny or two a yard more for
them. Beside this gratifying informa
tion the talk now is, that one of the
most extensive of the Sheffield, Eng
land, cutlery factories is to be transferred
bodily to this country. The cause as
signed for this remarkable move is the
fact that our American cutlery manu
facturers are becoming such experts that
they are bezlnnlrJi; to contest the hifb
erto almost undisputed supremacy
of
the English in this branch of industry,
The importations from Sheffield for the
first qusrter of the present year have
fallen off more than a million and
half, which is certainly surprising.

Editors Affbal In Tuesday morn
ine's Appeal appears an article regard
ine the base-ball came last Sunday,
which, to say the least, shows little
spirit of fairness or gocd will to the Riv
eraide club. The managers of the Mem
phis club, who arranged the game, were
requested to put a strong nine in tne
field. To acknowledge their weakness
after the game has beon playe J is not at
all complimentary to some good play
era engaged. That the Riverside made
errors in thip, their first game of the sea
eon, is conceded; but they, looking to
the interest and improvement of tho
game, give credit, ana not undue dis
paragement, to other clubs, and expect
at least common courtesy from the
press. Having been requested to make
out the score, l did it as tnen under
stood, and still understand, that eight
out of the nine, if not all those who were
engaged, belong to tne Mempnis base
ball club. That the meriU of both clubs
may bo twtd, we have this day cbal
lenged the Memphis club for a game of
baso bail, at tneir pare on next Friday

Editors Appeal A communication,
slgneJ "J. T. M.," appeared in the
Avalanche on the fifth instant, and is
followed by one in the Appeal of the
eleventh, signed "Medlcis," attacking
the Howard association, xxotwitnatanu
ing "J. T. M.'a" previous ignorance of
the charter of tue association, no an
pears to understand tho explanation
vouchsafed by the cmcers or tne associa
tion, and to be satisfied; yet such is the
stupidity of "Medicis" that he sppears
to see notning except uis own lmere-r,
as suggested, under misapprehension, by
" J. T. M." I would explain to tho pub
lic tbat many physicians of Memphis
and-elsewnere, nowy ouerea tnen ser
vices, without charge, to the Howard es
sociatlon, for tho benefit of the eutTercrs
by the yellow-fever epidemic. Such
services were thankfully accepted by
the association, anu. witn tne exception
of one or two instances, never heard of
any claims on ace unt of them. There
were times when the volunteer
physicians were not sufficient
to perform the duties of attending to all
the sick,when the association was forced
to employ others. All tbe physicians
that were ever employed by tlie assocl
ation have been paid. I would ask
"Medicis" whether he was ever em
ployed, or volunteered his services free
oicnarge; xj ,ne was enipiayeu ne nas
been paid, and if he volunteered he de
serves no pay any more than the mem
bers of tbe association deserve pay, out
of tbe funds of the association, which is
absurd. The association has bsen be
sieged directlyrom without, and Indi
rectly from within, through members of
the association,- by corporation?, associ
ations, asylum!1, and individuals ever
since the war, in order to capture such
portions of the fund as they thought
worth trying for, and have not scrupled
to make use of manufactured public
opinion to force the association to give
it up: and I regard this attempt as a
repetition of the samp. I have consult
ed with some or tne pnysicians wno uia
noble service during the epidemic,
who express resret that "Medicis"
(1W not sign his proper name, because it
yj each and all or tnem u&uie to ds
"neidtred by the pulllc as the author

the epidemic provtd a misfortune to
"Medicis," as it did to thousands of
others; and be Is not tbe first one that
has thought that the Howard associa

bursing them. Aa to the liability of tbe
association for the misfortunes of citl
zens, It is about js liable as a-iy other
corporation, mercantile firm or individ
ual for Ions of time or proporty occa
sioned by the epidemic. Tnere ia no
doubt in my mind, nor in the minds of
hundreds of others that I have heaTd
express themselves since the epidemic,
that the association has no right, under
tbe charter, to use tbe funds except for
neceseaiy expenees and for epidemics
and disasters that threaten the lives of
this or other communities.

Editors ArPEAL Snail a representa
tive republican government be contin
ued, or is the United States government,
aa thus formed, to be changed to con
solidation, whicn means a government
for oppression of tho many tor tho few?
These are questions most vital to every
sovereign citizen, Bince it is plainly ob
servable to every reader of the prints of
the day; and seeing full well tbat both
parties are at sea, cr . competent to
meet the great issue by reason of divi
sions In them fearing it may bo Iosh of
position still party lines are iigldly
drawn, one against the other, by parti
sans, traitors and demagogues; and yet
neither, aa a party, has agreed upon any
line of policy on the question that rises
above all others the currency question
and national debt The present con
gress, in the lower house, baa been
mainly engaged in reforms, while now
it eeems tbe 3enate will have things just
as when convened, and congress will
adjourn without doing anything to give
relief to the laboring and toiling millions
in the country now heavily burdened
by oppressions and doomed still to en
dure the relentless hand of the few hold
ing United States bonds, and on them
furnish thn enrrenev to those who pay
the interest, who alone are producers of
products from the soil and the handi
work of artisans, mechanics, etc. How
long can such bear up when values in
every section are being reduced, particu
larly on reilty, without any increased
wealth in the land, without any incomes
to laborers ary ffhere? Ho.v, then, is it
pjefa.ble for the people to pay sucn nign
interest on the bonds of the government,
and, still worse, the government currency
known as the national banks, that has
driven out all other circulation? I will
try to raise the curtain, that the canker
may be seen anu action uuu uuw,
while the voter holds in his hand
a check upon the moneyed oligarchy.
that he mav reform tbe evils now upon
or that soon will be upon the whole
land except the fortunate few wrroae
gain was the loss particularly of the
south. I now venture suggestions
to remedy the evils, since botn parties
nerhaos fearing loss of popularity, seem
incompetent to the task of deciding on
a oclicv in other word?. The Democrats
eav it Is for the Republican party to set
tie its business meaning tbe finance
question. Tue Republicans want noth
ing done, and if left to them it will le
main iust as it is. But tbe people can
not bear up under this oppression, for it
sbou'd be known by every voter and is
by many that in no one year, or any
decade of any ten years, of our nation's
greatest prosperity did we increase in
wealth more than four per cent, per an
num: for the past five years, and tbe
nation at peace, we have decreased
values fully twenty-five per cent. The
south since tbe war has decreased on
real values fully fifty per cent.; indeed
but little may be considered of any value
or marftetabie at any once; our mate
rial product (cotton) is now below cost
of production, lience no incomes. St'li
this intereston the United States bonded
debt ha3 to be paid, and if perchance
any have money in currency they are
paying a double interest I claim one
master at a time is enough, for the bonds
and currency ia the same except what
little greenbacks now and then is seen
Then I insist on paying the bonded debt
and agreed interest, but am opposed to
any one speculating on the government
by buying oonas at a neavy uiscouni;
and then collecting interest semi-annu
ally, in gold, without interest. Justice
says if a one thousand-dollar bond was
purchased for five hundred dollars, at
interest of six to eight par cent., inolud
ing gold premium, then one and one
half per cent, tax exemptions, makes
the holder receive say eight per cent, on
all bonds; and if purchased at fifty per
cent, discount, they set sixteen per cent.
on tbe oiiginal capital expended. Nor
Is this all. They buy up say one huu
dred, or more, thousand dollars of bonds
and hypothecate the same with the
comptroller of the currency, they get
ninety per cent, in aationai currency
start a bank, and make any terms want
ed for its use. Ten per cent , I suppose,
is about the average paid annual inter
est, and by the very people who paj s
the interest on the bonda in the form of
duties, stamp tax, etc. Then the pro
dncing lalmring people of all classes and
professions are bound to be oppressed by
the favored lew bonanoiaers ana na
tional-bank men. The convertion of
greenbacks into bonds, with such inter
est and exemptions, created a monoply
and consolidated the currency, whereby
this power for power it is controls this
day the commerce and products of the
nation. If they will to bring cotton
down to five cents per pound, so tbe
manufacturers north may send fabrics
to Liverpool and undersell them, they
can do It ! They, as all vampires, want
all they can get; never respecting the
wants, through their oppressions, of the
toiling millions at work for them, but
rather move on than relieve. Then if
we wait for the Republican party to p
ply the remedy, it will never do it; it is
hardly consistent ror it to uauo wnat nas
been prominent in its centralization
see no difference between a moneyed
centralization and human unlimited
power. We certainly now have the
former, which will ere long wind up the
machinery into a great dictation. Let the
people take the matter in hand and in
vite illuminations from practical men,
patriots, and lovers of a republican form
of government, regardless of paitisan
leaders. Let a distinctive averence be
made bv tbe press and meetings cf the
neonle. bv deciding upon a policy; aniJ,
my word ior it, soon many oi our oesc
men now seemingly airaia to act win
come up and give adhesion to any line
of poiioy the great people unitedly de
mand. The times are too momentous
for parties to be quarrelling and crim
inatiug each other, and divided among
themselves: on mis nnanciai question,
when, it is too plain to be seen, the
whole laboring masses is in bankruptcy
and ruin. The writer, of course, knows
one great prime mover was the oppres
sion of the south, by deputations of car
petbag piundeiingsand ruin, uur ruined
condition is now being divided out
in other sections; our poverty forbids
purchase of manufactures; consequently
the price is ieaucea, nence, roreign snip
msnta of cotton fabrics to market there.
But on us who produce cotton the heavi
est burden falls, unless Manchester is
brought here in the south to compete in
the markets of the world with cotton
goods. My plan for the evils seen and
felt by the financial and currency ques
tion Is first, to wipe out every national
bank in the United Stites, then issue
for a circulating medium greenbacks, or
government issue call it by any name
Jn place of national currency; matte
this issue a legal-tender for all transac
tions in our government; make it legal
to convert, at will of holder, in United
States three or four percent, bonds, and,
at will of bolder, to substitute currency.
This will give ample currency, to be
brought out as wanted, will prevent any
surplus, and be a rate of interest the peo
ple can pay. The credit of the govern
ment is unsnaKen oy any ring, wnen
any balance be due by imports, pay eome
in bullion, or coin, but in all other trans
actions let greenbacks, or government
currency, be a legal tender. This will
produce resumption in 1879, as by that
time this currency will be on par with
gold, which, of course, Is resumption, or
its equivalent. It is a we!l-establUned
fact tbat when a people hai surplus to
eell it will bring the currency; then, if a
surplus, the holder can get a reasonable
interest. If a better be offered in private
transactions, draw currency and Inter
est, which only changes holders, but not
values, possibly, at any time. Enter
taining these views, insist on wiping out
of existence every national bank, as too
dear a circulating medium, hnd is cen
tralism, and issue in its stead govern
ment currency, and say not a woid about
gold resumption, and ? ey win be at
per in twelve months trom passage or
such laws by congress. Youm truly.
