The Legislative council of Mem

A RESOLUTION has been adopted

Boston Post: The real fifteen
puzzle is to tell whether the next
President of the United States will
be.Tilden, Grant, Bayard, Sherman,
Seymour, Blaine, McClellan, Wasli-

The cost of the bridge to unite
New York and Brooklyn, which the
De Lesseps engineers declare to be a
more difficult engineering task than
the construction of the isthmian ca=
nal, thus far aggregates $11,286,380,
and it will require many millions
more to complete it.
The Nashville American mentions
a fewsigns of progress in Tennessee,
as follows: A mammoth cotton
compress in course of construction
at Jackson ; an ice factory started at
Chattanooga Saturday ; Columbia is
algo to have an ice factory ; the Koan
Iron Company at Chattanooga and
Rockwood is employing over one
one thousand two hundred hands;
the Nashville cotton mills running
day and night.
Although Le Moyne,the man who
first practiced cremation, has been
dead some time, cremation, it seems,
did not die with him. A wealthy
resident of Union Hill, New Jersey,
is said to be contemplating the con
struction of a commodious cremation
in which remains will be incinerated
for the reasonable sum of forty dol
lars per corpse. Union Hill is not
far from New York; aud as the cre
matory charges are much below the
ccst of the average funeral, it .is not
unlikely that the' enterprise will be
well patronized. If this crematory
business does happen to become gen
eral, what are the medical colleges
going to do for their dissecting sub
jects?
The friends of Mr. Hugh J. Jew
ett, of Zanesville, Ohio, are getting
' up a boom for him, and seem to
think if he is nominated at the
Cincinnati Convention he can car
ry Ohio for the Democracy in the
coming election. A dispatch irom
Zanesville, dated March 1st says:
“Since Mr. Hugh J. Jewett’s name
has been mentioned in connection
with the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency, leading Democrats in
this neighborhood have been enthu
siastic in his support, and the move
ment culminated this evening in the
organizing of a Jewett club. The
movement was begun contrary to Mr.
Jewett’s express wishes, by the
friends at this his old home. Al
though scarcely any publicity was
given to the design, over 400 enthu
siastic Jewett men were present. A
number of Re; ublicans have signifi
ed their intention of becoming mem
bers of the club. Mr. JewetL’s nomi
nation, it is thought here, would
secure Ohio to the Democrats, as ma
ny thousands of Repulicans would
support him. Recent utterances
elicited by newspaper .interviews,
show that Mr. Jewett has a very
strong following in this State.”
TILDEN A ED TEE DEMOC-
'11AGY.
From a statement of the Washing-
Post it wculd now seem that Mr.Tit-
deu has resolvet: to force himself np-
on the Democracy as a Presidential
candidate again. While we are not
among those who believe that Mr.
Tilden committed a great wrong in
yielding up his chances to the Presi
dency in the manner he did at the
last election, we do think that his
seeming reticence was a misfortune
to him, a3 it rendered him unavaila
ble to the Democracy for a second
nomination. That Mr. Tilden was
fairly elected in 1876 there is not a
doubt, but any course that might
have been pursued by him different
from that which lie did pursue would
have be-n fraught with disaster, aud
there was no alternative left him bnt
to quietly submit tp having his rights
taken away. M^ Tilden, in that
groat electoral count, which'culmi-
nated in the seating ofa Baud in the
White House, was a victim to too
much confidence, aud upon those
men in Congress who submitted to
the infamous 8 to 7 commission rests
the responsibility of seating Hayes,
and thereby thwarting the popular
will. Bnt fully acknowledging the
great wrong done to him and the
country, if it were but justice, is it
wisdom for.tiie Detnocr .ey to renom
inate Mr. T-ilden at Cincinnati?
From onr humble stand-point we
think not. The policy of the Dem»
ocracy in the coming struggle should
be to sefret a leader who will be most
•sure to win for the party victory, aud
Mr. Tilden can better afford to bear
the wrongs he has had to endure
than the country lose the benefits it
wculd*secnre by the overthrow of a
party that has ruled as a party of
hate and oppression. If Mr. Tilden
is renominated there are numbers of
Democrats, in every State and coun
ty, who believe him to blame in not
claiming and endeavoring to secure
by force, if need be, the position to
which the people elected him, and
who would be indifferent to Ills suc
cess in another campaign, while
some such man as Hancock or Bay
ard would buoy the party, inspire a
new vigor and secure a majority too
overwhelming to be overcome by an
8 to 7 or any other commission. If
Mr. Tilden values the welfare of the
Democracy he will continue to be si
lent.
Jefferson Davis, says the Phila
delphia Times, thinks that his mem
oirs will be ready for publication in
the fall of this yecr. A large por
tion of the first volume will be de
voted to his views as to the causes
that led to the late war. The re
mainder of the volume and <he whole
of the second volume will relate to
the conducfc-of the war. Both voh
umes will be illustrated with por
traits of Confederate leaders. Sirs.
Davis and General Joseph Davis, a
rnphew, assist in the preparation of
the work.
Washington Letter.
TFrom our Correspondent.]
Washington, D. C. ( Mar. 2,1SS0.
Editor Advertiser: It is believ
ed by everybody in Congress that the
rules adopted yesterday by the House
will facilitate legislation by allowing
the will of the majority to be more
read ly expressed. There are only
about one-third as many rules as be
fore, and they are no more difficult
to understand, each by itself or col
lectively, than the others, yet they
cover everything covered by the larger
number.
I!, now, the House will wrestle for
a month or two with the appropria
lion bills, giving its time only to them
and a few other measures of general
interest, there may be realized the
Speaker's prophesy of adjournment
in May. This will leave the business
of the country to take care of itself,
which is what it needs and what it
wants, aud will remove from men’s
minds the idea that Congress is re
solving itself tnto a machine to influ
ence the .Presidential nominations.
By three separate votes the House
Committee on Ways aud Means
showed its determination not to in
terfere with tariff matters at this ses
sion. Except in till matter of print
ing materials there had been no
greater influence brought to bear m
favor of changes than was presented
against change. I think that Con
gress will order a commission of cit
izens who will be authorized to in
quire into necessary aud judicious
changes in the tariff laws, and that
no important action will be taken
until the report of the Commission is
received and considered.
Senator Randolph on Monday call
ed up the noted case of General
Fitz John Porter, and spoke elo
quently in behalf of the bill, which
in substance, restores that officer to
his rank in the army from which be
was dismissed after tri 1 in 18G3.—
The bill for restoration is based on
an inquiry subsequently made by au
thority by Generals Shofield, Terry
and Getty, who, after examining
new evidence, declared the General
not gnilty of the offitnees for which
he was dismissed. Senator Logan
spoke yesterday in opposition to the
bill. There will he a considerable
debate, probably, bnt not a partisan
one, and the bill is sure to pass.
What are known as the “States
Rights” cases were disposed of on
Monday by the United States Su
preme Court. The decision virtually
declares for one thing,that State laws 1
which prevent the selection of color
ed men as jurors are in violation to
the fourteenth amendment of the
Constitution.
The public debt statement is re
ported by Secretary Sherman to have
decreased to the amount of six mil
lions in February. This is a very
good showing. Olive.

gy became frightened at a cart in the

er with their six months old babe

—Macon Telegraph: Every month

Large English Company coming to
Tennessee.
[Cincinnati Enquirer.]
Sir John Boyle, of London, Eng
land, accompanied by Cyrus Clark,
of Pennsylvania, and others,arrived
in the city yesterday from the Cum
berland plateau, and, after consulta
tion with the Trustees and Mana
gers of the Southern Railroad, left
for the East. These gentlemen have
been spendijig some time in the
Cumberland plateau,examining titles
to lands and preparing to found a
large English colony in that section.
They have finnally decided upon a
point several miles from the South
ern Railroad, opposite Robbins*
station, and two hundred and six
teen miles from Cincinnati, and hav
ing purchased about one hundred
thousand acres of land there, will
proceed to erect saw mills, lay out a
town, build a hotel, and will bring
from England a very large colony,
numbering thousands of persons,
They expect to build iron works,
manufactories of wooden articles,
and to engage in agriculture largely.
A considerable number ol the colo
nists will be people of wealth and
social position, who will erect elegant (
residences, and bask away the years i
of their lives in the perpetual sun
mer of Tennessee, and the clear at
mosphere of the plateau, two thou- i
sand feet above the sea level. ,
Mr. Boyle is trustee and manager
of the estate of the Marquis of Bute,

brated character. Sir Putney G^lea.
The Macon and Brunswick
[Atlanta Constitution,] ^
The sa'e of the Macon and B 1 :uus
wick railroad has at last been com
pleted. Wh n tlie bill was passed
the legislature thought it could be
done in forty-five days, but it has
proven a more difficult task than was
at first contemplated. After much
tribulation the transfer has been
made. The price paid is much l.ess
than the road could have been sold
for if ii had belonged to private par
ties.' When the act was passed
railroad property was very cheap in
the slate; and it was thought by
everyone that the price fixed by the
legislature was more than could pos
sibly ba obtained for the property.
We have been asked what will be
the effect of this sale on the stuck of
other railroads in the State? In
vie.r of the fact that Central and
Geor ia lailivad stock have been
steadily advancing since the attempt
ed sale on the 13th day of January,
we c nnot think tha’ it will effect
the value of either. About a year
ago the Georgia railroad held a large
amount of tne stock of the Nashville
ond Chattanooga railroad, and the
wise nen of the Georgia road, in
view of the early completion of the
Ciucirnati Southern, which they
thought would injure the Nashville
road decided to s 11 this stock. It
was sold at about 30. When the Cin
cinnati Southern was really finished,
the same stock was in demand at
112. The sale of the Macon and
Brunswick, instead of injuring the
stock of the Central, may therefore
enhance its value.
The state is to be congratulated on
having parted with a piece of prop
erty that has been the subject of a
large part of her legislative proceed
ings. She has lost considerable
ino ley in this road, but has accumu
lated no little experience relative to
building railroads by state aid.
Tilden a Candidate.
Tha Washington Post of the 4th
contains the following double lead
ed editorial:
“At a meeting of the prominent
friends of Mr Tilden, which was In Id
in New York last Saturday, the de
claration was made by that gentleman
that he would, without a doubt, be a
candidate for the Democratic nomi
nation. During the last six months
reports have reached us from time to
time, and from most authentic sour
ces, that Mr. Tilden contemplated a
voluntary but decided renunciation
of such honors ; but we have no rea
son to doubt that, whatever may have
been his intentions or purposes, he
is now firmly resolved to usk for a
renomiiiation. It was due. to his
friends, who might desire to attach
themselves to otner candidates in the
event of ii is withdrawal from the
race, that lie stould come to an im
mediate and positive decision, and
this, we are informed on unquestion
able authority, he has done. Mr
Tilden iscredited with the possession
of great political sagacity and almost
unbounded influence in his party;
but we have no reus >n to donbt, and,
mi the contrary, every reason to be
lieve,: hut unless he can convince the
Cincinnati Convention that he can
carry the State of New York, lie can
never obtain the nomination. He
may be able—as the New York Sun,
which appear.) to be ins veracious
mouth-piece, asserts—to defeat any
Democrat nominated over him or
against his wishes; but even in tin-
jaws of such a contingency it is not
possible that a Convention of sensi
ble men will meet and nominate a
man confessedly foredoomed to defeat.
It will be. of the highest importance,
therefore, foi him to immediately
put at work the agencies which will
bring about a c nsolidated Demoera
cy in the City and State of New
York.”
Nine Points of the Law.
“You see, boss, dar’s a nigger lib-
in’ up inv way who orter be tooken

Captain at the Central station in De
troit.
“What’s he been doing now ?”

bruced light up an’ tole me da; p>s-
sesshun was nine pints of the law,

“Yes.”
“Waal, de odder day I sent de ole

it I tole him jist like he answered
me, an’s ood on my dignity.”
“Well?”
f‘I had nine pints o’law,didn’t I?”
“Yes.”
“An’ how many pints am de law

• “I don’t know exactly.”
“Well, dut’s what bi dders me, far

Impure BI-Carb Soda fs of a

See that your Rnkine: Soda Is
wh Ite and PURE, ns should boALL
SIMILAR SUJBSTANCES used for
food.
A pimple but severe test of the comparative
value ot different brands of Soda is to dissolve a
dessert spoonful of each kind with about a pint
of water (hot preferred) in clear glasses, stirring
until all is thoroughly dissolved. The delete
rious insoluble matter in the inferior Soda will
be shown after settling some twenty minutes or
Booner, by the milky appearance of the solution
and the quantity of floating Rocky matter ac
cording to quality.
Be sure and ask for Church & Co.’s Boda and
see that their name is on the package and you
will get the purest and whitest made. The ns*
ot this with sour milk, in preference to Bakinz
Powder, saves twenty times its cost.
See one pound package for valuable informa
tion and read carefully.
