TO 1 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. Jf this tendency is i.ot checked wo •on have n centralization of power 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. Joseph P. Thompson. October 15, 1870. 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- ATTEALS FOR rzscz.

When the people vote they will merely register tho edicts of their mortem at Washington. Tho name of local self-government will only I to bo left, tho reality will he lost, and State lines and State Governments might as 11 for all practical purposes, bo wholly Monument to Gen. It. E. Lee. The undersigned connected with the Hollywood Memorial Association of lticb- , Virginia, respectfully request the obliterated. 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 local clectious. friends ami ad mi rein of General II. E. Lee in our whole country and abroad, to with them in a contribution for piestrian bronze statute of oar chieftain, of the best workmanship, to be erected in the soldiers portion of Holly wood Cemetery. 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 onr loving continual care, and that of Virginia and the South. If the 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. A deposit of funds will be made at R. H. Maury i: Co’s, Richmond, Virginia, and it is hoped the requisite amount will lie secured at once. Mrs. Win H. McFarland, Mrs. G. W.

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 Legislature, w hich selects r. successor to Willy. Tho interior counties will not be hoard from for several days on account of a lack of telegraphic communication, but those returns will not materially change ilie result.

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.— • Letter front Washington to Forney's Frets. * These unknown officers havo only din-’ graced themselves as far as they could. The world confesses tho goodnc-M pf General Lee, nnd Ids fume will 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! yet transpired since Iho beginning of ih« war.—At.

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.
