Tbe Legh-lature will, in an eepeclal lecso, gratify ted ra'lsfy tbe people of "West Tennessee thote of Memphis, especially by e'ectirg Cpt. Har vey Mathfalithecfficeol Treasurer of Ihe State. He is their choice be cause tbey know him to he worthy and well .ualifie-d, to be a trae and tiieJ Democrat, who has done the party good lervlce and who has . never failed to respond to iU calls. A eell-made man, be if highly appre ciated by bia neighbors, who would be glad to oe him elevated to a posi tion of honor and trust. The Shelby deb-gallon will, of course, s'andby him, and all thoee from West Taunts see as well, and we expect all the Democrats from East Tennessee, lie ought to be elected without trouble. Fi nLIC SC:ilO01.K OFTEMHtMltr. We earnestly call attention to the correspondence and extract from the Nashville Union in nnothor column. Thetnbjeetot the pnblio schools of Tennessee oagbt t ) Lave more thought and it tt rest extended to them than they get. Oar legislator full to do the e.-.hools Justice, and the people gener ally fhonld condemn their neglect and Inuibt that provision bs made to give every child, girl and boy, white and b'ack, sis montlisgood schooling every year. A spirit of littleness has been shown by Tennessee legislators that looks as if tury wanted to discredit Tennessee in the eyes of tbe whole Union. Their niggard parsimony has failed to allow tbe Slats government money enough to pay its enrrent expenses. The example finds imitators, and a pity mlssrnois re fanes to givsthe money that should keep the children of the Slate at school dnrlng the tima the law le qnlres. Where is Tenno'see t3 stand among hor sifter State, if al'. tbe edu cation her children are to recolve is a bane, le to be limited to three months' year, and at tbe hands of strch teach ers ss will do the three months work at $2 for each pupil. The American people despise meanness, and this la mean. It Is shortsighted, as such ra tions usually are. What Is the next generation of Tenncsseoans to be, with their $2 worth o! education for their start la life T It is the country that fee's the evils most; the farmer' snd the laborers' children might be made of inferior clay, if we my Judge by the way Tannessee officials treat them. The State is flourishing, and there la pletty of wealth to educate every son and daughter of the State well. Let a stupid, we might say satanlc, avaricionsness withhold edu cation, and where will lbs profile of our rich soil, teeming mines and fast Increasing manufacture goT Heads empty of knowledge, minds vacant as the musings of a cow, cannot conduit and make the most of the vast inter ests that are growing np around us. Mail ou's'derc come Into the Stute to do wbat ti own citiiens are incompe tent for? Most oar farms tletsrioiate from the ba'd ignorance of its culti vators, and the strck perish beoause the people about them know no more of oxen and shei'p than they know about thermal vhb? Is Tennessee to bs for Tenners leans, or are cultivated mil. da and sMUIul hands to come fioni elsewhere, do the work the Tennos.ee larjacr and lubcrdr ia too Igno rant to be ahlo to psrfjrtn, and tieoop up the wealth Tennessee youths and men know not either how to gain or retain? la theso' days the ignorant go to the wall; they are neither esteemed nor prosperous, yet each Is the doom to which Tcuuepsee managers of public affairs are con demning the children of the precent day. What have thess innocent ones done that thy should be treatod with euth an outrsga ss tbe curss of igno rance? The State Las bad enough of the do nga of meanness and imbecili ty; (here must be a chance and at once. The children of today must be esved f.-otn the fate which creatures whi gripe a nickel with a gr.sp that woald make a dent ia a ploughshare would eubjsct them to. WOW rOB THE IIIAKITT BA1X. For tbe pint two months the lai'h ionat la soclity of MsmphU las been blua'rg amid a succession ol brilliant cnkrlaiument?. Memphis bus never been a i gny as daring the present win ter.

Indeed, tho fajhlotia ble soc tty tf Memphis hai been rev eling in a twj months' carnival. The dim always rucceeds the storm, and faring the lull in fislilonable festivi tie) the proposed Charity Ball should be Le'.d, and tbe beautiful young la dies aud all who' have contribnted to raake W.ilon&ble eoi'i ty sd gay and brilliant, shonli contiibu.e tometbing to make the Chajity Bail a grand auc ceeg. Thousands of dollars havs been spent daring the pist (wo mouths on flowers aloac, ami surely the recipients aud the donor of such ephemeial and extravagant tokens will give or do rD)th'Dg to wa:, food and clot'ie tbe pjor. The weather la ex tremely cold, and if tho poc p'e of W.-u'.piiia could see aud know the suffoMrg of tbe poor they wou'd fool us much toiocet In tbe Cuarily Ball ai Ihe.t manifested in Ihe nnmo'ous grand entcrtainmen o of tl e pa t two months. Money Is needed to purchase ccal, tjpurchaso food ti fill empty ttomecbe, and to provide warmth for shivering naked nesa. Make tbe Chart; ball a aracd (access, and during the winter there will be little suffering In oar midst. Toallevitti the sufferings of tbe poor is a da'y we owe to humanity. It wou'd be a aid commentary on the people of Memphis if tbey should withhold t'aeir sympathy from the Charily BJ1 ai r spending so much time aud money in the frivolities of fashionable life. It is t3 bs hoped all will units in the determlnst'on to make the Charity Bill a success.

At Mon treal we had vaiiutis confernucea with r p-es iritaUve men of the North with n view to forming in the outsit some bads whch ehould govern our opinion as to tbe btst, course to pur sue thereafter. G'ant was advancing on Richmond, and the tapers of the N oi th contended taat the battles oi 8po t'Tlvania, the Wi'derne s and Gold Harbor were viotories, and that G rent's nmsterly (link movements would eventually result in d. atroyit g Lse's army ia front cf Iichmond; thst Sberruan was ndvancirgon At- larta with a sufficient lo.ce, and that he would inev tibly defeat Jotiiitton in GtO'uia.

It is propond by the Nnhwastera neoole to take oosseesion of the pres. ent organizd governments of ihe throe Uta'es mentioned and orgardzs. provisional governme. ts for the pur rosea in view. The 8' van v of mill' it. ry ordeis and a total disregard of nrivaie liuhts and nrsonal liberty in tne Western States of Kentucky, Mis souri, Indiana, litmus and Uhio tias a-outed tbe pm ple t) rradnesa and nrunared them, in their de.-p-ration, to sii'ss upon the fist glimmer of hope to date all, and in dotng so to regain what they hava loet. In order to arouse tbe people political ui"tings were called, -'peace meeting" have been bi.ld and it flammatory addreeees delivered, and wbeuever orators have exprosied themselves fr peace with tbe re toration of the Union, and if that cannot be, then peaca on any tirms, the cheers and clarur rs of the ninesos have kuowa ro bounds. A coi respondents Las b3en recently opened between somo members o( tur Com i Bioi end represent itives of tbe United SUtes Governmen', a copy of whi. h you have no doub'. eeen. After an interview with Mr. Greeley, Mr. Lincoln hid been led to iue Irs remarkable manifesto, "To ail whom it may cohcern," tukitg tha ground that he wid listen to no pr.ipodtion wh eh does not embrace the total abandonment of slaveiy. The impres sion left on the public miud in the Norhbythis conespondence is that the ti. nth would agree to leconfct uc tion now to ob ain peace. This belli f, coupled with Grant's laet defeat at Petersburg and Sherman's dely in taking Atlanta, and a call by draft for 60 l.OuO additional troops bas P'odmed a mst wonderful change in the minds of the p opla of tbe North western states. Politicians who, three Wteks ago, held the opinion tbi.t no hing wis left them bat a a ru.gle lot liberty, even to the ex ent ol force i f arms, are now willing tb await and test the virtue of the ballot box, and many of thiss are meet active in d s suadiog their friends from aoy attempt at violence. Tuis remukab e change has been noted by Mr. L ncolu and bis Cabinet, and 1 know whit I write when I aa-ure you that they are very app'ebeosivs of tbe result.

Th'ee days eg , however, J udge B!a k v sited me in Toronto, deluaud by Mr. Sttn oa to do so, and tuted to me that M'.

I writs at this length for your cjnsideration. The Confederate Siates pieter ex.ernal and com plete sepaiation, but if the euligbleceil and powerful nations cf Europe nball continue to push ns i?.' aside, we must take care of ourcelves. ' Will the governniHtits of EDglacd and i Fiance still coldly and inoifferently f- i look on at tbe carnage and drsilation f f, sweeping over tne la d and make no effoit lo atreet it? Were they tos - ' recognise us with bu aimed interposal tion, the war must be ei.ded in twenty days, and it wiu d secure their lights I respectively in Mexico aod Canada.!, But they nu t a t and act without de- f . lay. Toe Emreror may be mis aken 'i in supposing Linco'n will be elected ' ; in November and tbat then Maximil-I lian will bave a few more years' iu which to estab i h end confirm bia power in Mex co.
