l From the Missouri Democrat of October 10, the
leading Itepwttkah journal in Missouri. J
Presidential Interference.
Urutz Brown’s speech at tit. Joseph has
in it a peculiar significance. It is a flam
ing indignant protest against tlie inter
ference of the federal administration
with domestic concerns of tho States.
It is high time for such a protest. Da
ring the war when the very life of tho
nation was in danger, we tolerated a con
centration of power in^ tho federal gov
ernment which, in earlier times, wonld
have lteeu re-tented and resisted. After
the war, when tho reconstruction and res
toration of the Southern States rendered
necessary extraordinary remedies for an
extraordinary difficulty, we recognized the
fact that thoso States were in an anoma
lous condition, which justified measures
quite inexcusable if applied to the affairs
of well organized and loyal governed
commonwealth*.
But tho habit of resorting to such ex
treme measures, in dealing with States
disorganized and dertituo of well-estab
lished self-government, has grown upon
the Federal authority until the just limit
of national interference has been almost
obliterated, J’lcsideat Grant, a soldier
l>v education, wlioUy inexperienced in po
litical affair*, and incapable :u a soldier,
<> r comprehending the relations of the
.States to the nation in our complex sys
tem. of government, has more than once
betrayed an inclination to regard State
government and State authority with con
tempt, and Lis dealings with Virginia,
Georgia aud Mississippi huvo been of
very questionable propriety. Yet they
aro excused because of tho unsettled con
dition of these Stab s ; and tho habit of
interference, thus unresisted, lias gained
such a mastery with him that ho now
boldly undertakes to uso his executive
potrer to control the election in the State
os orderly, peaceful and thoroughly or
ganized os any Shito in tho Union.

A Won
Appeal for Peace.
To the Women of the United States :
Madame do Gasparin, who i» widely
known in this country through her ad
mirable writings, has sent to me the fol
lowing appeal, with t’:e request that I
wonld give it tho widest publicity, and
procure to it the largest possible num-
tier of signatures of the women of the
United States. In the interest of hu
manity, I respectfully ask the insertion
of this appeal in the newspapers, and sug
gest that every district be canvassed im
mediately for signatures for the same.
Tho copies thus signed may be forward
ed directly to Madame la Comtesse do
Gasparin, Valley respress Orbe, Canton
do Vaud, Siusse, or addressed to my care
at No, U2 West Thirty-sixth street, New
York. The same appeal is circulating in
England, Switzerland, Italy and other
neutral countries.

Cali for Bids to Lease the State
Governor Bollock has issued his call
for proposals to lease the State Road.—
We give for the benefit of our readers
who may want a riffle at this big thing,
the concluding extract of his proclama
tion :
For the purpose of carrying out this
act, proposals will bo received until and
including the 25th day of December next,
and mast be addressed “to the Governor
of the State of Georgia, at Atlanta,** and
marked on the wrapper, “ Proposals for
the lease of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, in accordance with an act ap
proved October 23, 1870.” The propo
sals mast state in fall the names and resi
dence of the parties uniting to our propo
sition, the amount that each of the par
ties therein named are worth over and
above their debts and liabilities, together
with a full description of the character of
the security which will be offered to com
plete the bond.
I The pro]>erty to be leased is a single
track railroad, one hundred and thirty-
eight rules in length, with full and com-
quipmeut of sliojis, depots, turn-

President Grant attempts to dictate to
tho peonlo of Missouri, and they protest,
and indignantly spurn the dictation.—
That is the meaning of this speech, and
of the overwhelming majority which will
endorse it. Tho people say to Gen.
Grant, “You aro onr servant, not onr
master." They will tell him that the
Federal Government lias no business to
control elections in a State.
No matter how wise tho President may
be, no matter how complete may have
been his success in mlminiatering the na
tional affairs committed to his charge,
we still demand for ourselves the privi-
lego of electing our own State
officers and directing at onr own pleas
ure tiro local affairs of the State in which
we live. When the votes are all polled it
will appear that tho people of Missouri
havo at least tiiis much of attachment lor
• State sovereignty” that they mean to
manage their local affairs without any
dictation from Washington. When the
President’s letter was written, we thought
it a blunder which lio would soon dis- j
cover. Now that ho follows it up by
r emoving officials, ho turns tho inevitu-
able defeat and overtlrrow of the pro
scriptive policy in Missouri into rebuke
of himself.
The President seeks to control this
State by Federal patronage. It is very
appropriate that he should take this
method of combatting a party which is
the first in the country to declare “ that
tiro safety of Republican institutions do-
ntunds a thorough reform of tho civil
seyvico of tho Government, by which
ability ami moral worth shall be establish
ed as the essential qualifications for office,
aud the corruption and demoralizing in-
Jlucnco of . wliat is euphoniously colled
• government patronage’ shall be removed
from our political life.”
This doctrine docs not sure the Presi
dent. By the use of that samoGovera
ll} n.t patronage he has rewarded relatives
and juTsonal friends; and now he en-
dt* ivors to crush a party which laWs
honestly to fulfill pledges which beseems
to have forgotteu. Wc regret that he re
gards it u direct blow at himself to pro
pose tho abolition of Government patron
age, with its corrupt uml demoralizing
influence. Jt wa.«j not .so intended. But
bo is doing his best to teach tlie froom<
of Mississippi that this reform is neces
sary to secure their freedom of chop

A most eligible site, overlooking this
whole section, and in the centre of the
part appropriated to the remains of the
dead from the battle fields of Gettysburg,
has lieen offered by the Association to his
family for his final resting place, under

body should lie elsewhere, it is still
eminently fitting to efect a monument to
his memory, iu tho midst of the heroes
who fell fighting under his leadership.
It is proposed that, on the memorial days
to bo observed throughout tho South,
every congregation, Christian and He
brew, make their contributions for this
object.

The Democracy Carry West Virgin
ia.—Incomplete returns from twenty
counties, embracing two-thirds of tho
State, show a large* Democratic gain,
enough to warrant tho announcement
that the State has been carried by the
Democrats by the small Majority of 1,200.
The Republicans concede their defeat;
the Democrats elect two Congressmen
in tho tho first and third districts, and by
large gains will bo able t v control the

wavs Io show their love ami respect for
the lute R. E. I,co, since the jtnuomice-
moot of the death of that somewhat ni
torious gentleman. Tho day after tl
intelligence of ids death hod been r
ceived the Americau llag wan placed at
hidf-umst on tlie St. Mare Hotel, kept by
John II. .‘kmiaps, the proprietor of the
Benton House. A couple or officers be
longing to tho United States army—<
of them a Philadelphian—happened to
notice tho flag at half-mast, and stepping
into the hotel, inquired tlie cause. They
were informed that it was “out of
Hjwct to tho memory of Gen. Lea” The
officers expressed tho opinion that if it
was intended as a murk of respect for
General Leo the wrong llag bad lieen
hoisted. It should bo the “stars and
liars,” they said, and not the stars and
stripes. Home curt reply was made by
the hotel clerk, when the officers deman
ded that tlie flag should either bo taken
down or lroi*ted to tho top of the flag
staff. The clerk demurred at tills, but,
seeing that the manner of the officers was
determined, ho agreed to have tho posi
tion of the flag, changed. One of tho
colored “call lioys” of the hotel was dis
patched to have it hoisted to tho top of
the flagstaff. It appears, however, that
he did not get it np tho entire length,
whereupon tho officers, who had observed
the operation from tho sooth side of the
avenue, went over to the clerk of the
hotel and informed him that tho flag was
not up to the “sticking point.” Tho
clerk protetsod, but the officers were
inexorable. They*must have it in the
proper place. The negro was again dis
patched to tho roof of tho hotel, and
this time succeeded in getting tho flag
lo the top of tho flagstaff. It is proper
to state that Mr. Semmes, tho proprietor
of that St. Marc, disavows tho action of
Iiia subordinate* in placing the flag at
half-mast, but lie should have different
men around him if ho expects to
retain the patronage of Americans.—

At last tiro gallant army of Razaine, at
Metz, has surrendered. It stood out as
long as any hope was left, probably until
starvation became more terrible than the
Prussian cauuon. Then, when it was no
longer a disgrace, but a humanity to sur
render, the old hero capitulated with his
entire army. This U another tremendous
blow to Franco. One hundred and fifty
tbousaud of her best men aro placed out
side the field and their arms and muni
tions of war fall into tho hands of her ir-
resistablo foo. Tho army that captured
Metz, is now freo to rush on to Paris, or
elsewhere, as the Prussian plan may
iggest.
It. is possible that this disaster to the
French arms may hasten poace move
ments. We do not believe neutral pov.-
rs will r ermit tho war to progress far-
lrer. Whatever is done now that savors
•f hostility’, is a useless devastation of
•’ranee and a cruel outrage upon her p©'»-
plo. But tho Prussians cannot be held
responsible. The road to peace appears
blocked, and nlie cannot bo expected to
gather up her powerful armies and out of
Franco without having effected some
terms to end the war and establish peace.
Tim French people aro impotent to no
gotinto. They are without a govern
ment; Lenee it becomes tho duty of ncu-
trnl power* to intervene, and demand t
cessation the cruelty which- tho wm
must now lx come. We think the down
fall of Metz encourages more hopes o
an early peace, than any event that Jut!

war.—At. Sun.
’'Radical Mode of Carrying Flections
in the North.—Some idea of the steps
that will bo taken to frighten Democrats
from the polls, and thus secure tbs elec
tion of Radical Congressmen in the city
of New York, may ho gleaned from
of tho speakers (N. Gayllord) at
recent Radical meeting in that city. He
said :
ien. Wuodford, I have no doubt
be elected Governor of this State. Only
enforce the new law which Congress has
given us, if necessary at the point of the
revolver, and th« day is ouru. In New
York ten thousand men will be placed at
tho polls, if need be, each with a badge
of Deputy United States Marshal oi
breast, mid with u sU-shooter iu
pocket.

An Important Decision.—The Su-

tlie government tveje entitled to • oil the
r ights and privileges of belligerents, re

that Confederate .treasury notes are a
