FORREST TALKS TO Till: COL ORED PEOPLE OF TENNESSEE ON’ THE GLORIOUS FOURTH President Henley, of the colored societies, then said: “General For rest, allow me to introduce to you Miss IjOU Lewis, who, ns the repre sentative of the colored ladies, will present you with a bouquet, to assure you of the sincerity they entertain for the objects of this occasion [cheers] and as an offering of peace." Miss Lou Lewis then advanced to where Gen. Forrest was standing and presented the bouquet with the fol lowing remarks: “General Forrest, allow me to pre sent you this bouquet as a token of reconciliation and an offering of peace and good will." [Applause.J RESPONSE OF GENERAL FORREST. Gen. Forrest received the bouquet, and in response said : I.idics and Gentlemen I accept the flowers ns a memento of reconcilia tion between the white and colored races of the Southern States. I ac cept it more [uirticularly as it comes from a colored lady, for if there is anyone on God's earth who loves the ladies I believe it is myself. (Im mense applause and laughter.] This day is a day that is proud to me, having occupied the position that 1 did for the past twelve years, and been misunderstood by your race. This is tie ilrst, opportunity I have had during that time to say that 1 am your friend. I am here a representative of the Southern people, one more slandered j and and maligned than any man in! the nation. I will say to you and to the colored race that the men who bore amis and followed lhe (lag of the Confederacy are, witli very few exceptions, your friends, i have an opportunity of saying what I have al ways felt that, I am your friend, for my interests are your interests, and your interests are my interests. We were born on the same soil, breathe the same, air, and live in the same land. Why, then, can we not live as brothers? i will say that when the war broke out I felt it my duty to stand bv my people. When the time ! came I did the best I could, and I don’t believe I flickered. I came here with the left’s of so me white people, who think I am going to do wrong. I believe that I can exert some influ ent:.', and do much to assist the peo ple in strengthening fraternal rela tions, and slml! do all in my power to bring about peace, it lias always been my motto to elevate every man —to depress none. [Applause.] I Want to elevate you to take positions in law offices, in stores, on farms, and wherever you are capable of going. I have not said anything about poli ties to-day. 1 don’t propose to say anything about polities. You have a light to j elect whom you please; vote for the man you tiiiuk best, and X think when that is done, that you and I are freemen. I>o as you consider right and honest in electing men for office. 1 did not come here to make you a long speceh, although invited to do, so by you. lam not much of a speak er, and my business prevented me from preparing myself. I came to meet you as friends, an 1 welcome you to the white people. X want you to come nearer to ns. When I can serve yon I will do so. Wo have but one flag, one county; let us stand together. We may differ in color, but not in sentiment. Use your best judgment iti select ing men for office ami vote as you think right, Many tilings have been said about, me which are wrong, and which white and black persons here, who stood by me through the war, can contradict, X have been in the hat of battle when colored men asked me to protect them, I have placed myself between them and t|ie bullets ei ray men, and told them they should be kept unharmed. Go to work, be industrious, live honestly and act truly, and when you are op pressed I’ll come to your relief. I thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for this opportunity you have afforded me to be with you ,and to assure you that lam with you in heart and in hand.

The General has no intention to answer anything which lias been put j fort h in a spirit of malice, envy, an-1 ger or resentment, regarding his Memoirs. You may say for me, however, 1 hat the most “ghastly apparition” which j “rises before rny soul’ the one which “tills me with the greatest horror”— is the “awful dread” of tin* fate of j those ('especially if they be Catholics) | who Indulge in such baseless slan- 1 ders and spread forth such malicious falsehood. My knowledge of General Slier- i man’s character is thorough. Every j year of his life, since he was nine years old, I have associated with him or corresponded with him, and 1 i have known his sentiments well, j Could the natural virtues and a heart j free from malice, resentment or in justice, secure heaven to a man, 1 need not ask for him the supernatur- 1 ai gift of faith. The Courier-Jour rial says he per- j petrated an enormity in himself ap- j plying the torch to a factory, during | which time he was also guilty of blasphemy. 1 say Gen.

Savannah, July It'.—Two young la dies, who had gone out to do some shopping just as the showers ceased, were detained later than they had in tended and wore hurrying down Whitaker street, and had nearly reached their home, when hearing quicksteps behind them, one of them turned suddenly, and as she did so, a negro seized her around the waist and attempted to kiss her. Both tar dies screamed, and having just reach ed the foot of tho stops of their resi dence, a young gentleman, who was sitting there, sprang to tlfeir rescue, aud tho negro fled. The darkness aided him, and ho succeeded in mak ing his escape. This is to be regret ted, as the perpetrator of sueli an net should bo summarily dealt with. EXTENSIVE SAVINUI.INU. COUNTRY PAPERS THE MEDIUM. New York, July 16 —Letters receiv ed by the President of tiie Stock Ex change and bankers of this city show that an extensive swindling opera tion has been going on to victimize .the people in the country. The op erators ia tho fraud have been adver tising exclusively in country papers, giviug glowing accounts of stock speculations by which fortunes were easily gained. Pamphlets were also circulated containing the particulars of tho modus operamli, the explana tion being plausibly constructed, the theory of speculating, and claim ing that operators havo combinations by which failure is impossible. One woman in Philadelphia lias written to the President of the Stock Exchange stating she had sent one hundred and six dollars to a firm it ere, and asking information, as the Arm informed her tlve money had been lost in speculation. Tho Presi dent replied he could do nothing for her. A number of letters havo been received showing tho victims to frauds numerous and evtensive in all parts of the country.

Special to Daily Times, by S. k A. Lino. Washington, July 16.— Some timo ago charges were filed with Attorney- General Pierrepout. complaining of the management of (lie office of Dis trict Attorney of this city. While they did not affect’ the integrity of Judge Fisher as an officer, it was set forth that he .had appointed his son [a notoriously bad character,] to the position of assistant; that the son was a consort of criminals, and this class of offenders had openly boasted that the prosecuting officers dare not invoke authority of the law upon thorn or mote out punishment for their misdeeds. These charges were supplemented by others. The Treas ury Department complained that there was not a vigorous administra tion of the office; the Post Office de partment complained, and particu lar with referenoo to the mail con tract frauds; then came a complaint from the War Department charging that the District Attorney lmd given an erroneous opinion upon an abstract of title to property purchased by it, upon the assumption that it was a valid title, when it was not. In view of these complaints Judge Pirrcpont sent for .1 udge Fisher, sometime ago, and invited him to refute or explain them away, In the meanwhile addi tional complaints were lodged with him by members of the bar of this District and prominent citizons. About a week ago Judge Pierrepont concluded the interests of justice would be better sorvod by a change in office. Accordingly, at a private conference with Judge Fisher he de liberately indicated to him that his signature would prove acceptable. After discharging this important duty lie wrote a letter to ox-Gov. Wells, of Virginia, tendering him tho office, and on Tuesday last received acceptance by that gentleman. On Wednesday tho Attorney-Gen eral again indicated to Judge Fisher tho fact that, his resignation had not been forthcoming embarrassed him considerably, and plainly told him that ho had offered tho place to Gov. Wells, and that ho had accepted it; that ho was constrained to this course not because he did dot have a high appreciation of his integrity, but solely because tho duties of the office had been administered witli a loose ness which seemed to him inexcusa ble. Judge Fisher that night left for Long Branch to endeavor to have the President intercede witli the Attor ney-General for his retention. Ho returned this morning and had a long interview with Judge Pierrepont. Judge Fisher indicated to him that the President had declined to int erfere, and left the matter solely in the hands of his law officer. At the interview this morning, Judge F. besought that time lie grant ed him to bring endorsements from the Bar of the District to show that bis office had always been vigorously conducted. This, Judge P. says lie does not think lie can do, inasmuch as the lo cal complaints against him came from some of tho most eminent members of tho Bar. COMMISSIONED. The Attorney General will have the commission of Gov. Wells sent to Long Branch for tho President’s sig nature. • ♦ • liiil ICC Muvlk anil Cliarlex o'Oonor. New York, July lfi. -Judgo Davis, who has been sharply criticised for imposing cumulative sentences on Wm. M. Tweed, recently wrote a let ter to Charles O'Conor, who, as seni or counsel, wus responsible for tho conduct of tlie proceedings against Tweed, calling his attention to tlie fact that the Court of Appeals in re versing those sentences relied greatly on tho argument made by O’Conor in an earlier case, and asking why O’Conor had not called his attention to this argument. The reply of O'Conor is published this morning, in which lie severely criticises the higher court, and takes occasion to defend at length the con duct of tho Ring suits, and expresses surprise and regret at tho legal tri umph of Tweed’s counsel. He de fends Judge Davis, action in sentenc ing Tweed, and says that the proper application of the roll which the Court of Appeals has established would boa series of trials on succes sive indictments, measuring out jus tice to the great peculator in regard to instalments, but that is precluded by the peculiar form of their decision, and tlie great public thief is shielded from separate trials for his offenses. Parliament FroceeilliHe*. London, July lfi.—Tho grant to pay the expenses of tlie Prince of Wales’ trip to India, passed tho Commons by 388 to lfi. The Canada copyright bill passed its second reading. A treaty lias been completed with tho Sultan of Zanzibar for the sup pression of the slave trade on tho east coast of Africa. swimming; Match.

Savory made a three hours speech upon the necessi ty of resisting the progress of Napo loouism. He attacked Rouher as an abetter of tho coup d’etat. Buffett said that tho country was threatened by double danger from revolutionists and Bonapartists. The danger from revolutionists was tho moro serious. The Government would watch them. Tho Bonapartists and Bight cheered; the Loft protested. M. Dofouro said that the Govern ment would display vigilance in re gard to Bonapartists. He would not remain a membor of a Government that neglected that duty. Gambetta called attention to tho divergence of two ministers, and ac cused tho Government of supporting Bonapartists iu office. Buffett asserted that perfect agree ment prevailed in the Cabinet, espec ially between Defoure and himself; said tho Government was giving ser vice to tho country by retaining old functionaries who were loyal al though they had served under the empire. Tiie Left violently p rotostod. Tho Right and Bonapartists loudly cheer ed.

From th(i Christiausburg Mi s .t ngcr.J It is a big thing to go from home some times very big. To Htny at home all tho time is to pass for noth ing [and bo nobody. The children aro not glad to see you, for they al ways see you. Tho wife never gives you as sweet a kiss and as coozy a hug—the servants never get a chance to tiring a grin or lift the hat—tho old farm dog is donied the privilege of giving his tail an earnest wag - in deed everybody about tho house learns to regard you as a fixture and ndj ust, themselves accordingly. When however “old master” calls for iiis boots to bo blacked and ills saddle horse to be brought to tho front door —when the wife lias tho pleasure of bringing out tiie Sunday go-to mee ting clothes and lay them on tho chair—when the children begin to whisper that something is going to happen and wo are going to get some candy—and when wife and children aud servants all group about tho front door to see tho ‘‘head of the family” go away, how good wo begin to feel at such demonstrations of af fection! How wo stand in the stir rups and give our final orders! Rein up our steed with an important air, adjust the “old beaver” and bear the spur well to the flank! All I we begin to realize that somebody loves us and that wo are somebody! And then when you ride up to ’Squire Jones’ front gate and ask if the ’Squire is at home, and hear the old ’Squiro bawl out with great warmth and cor diality, “get down, neighbor Smith, get down and come in,” pleasant feel ings will come over a fellow, aud tho hand will give an earnest grip. And then when you and ’Squire Jones ride together for miles, talking all the tiino about matters of mutual inter ests, telling tho news of the neighbor hood, prospects of the season, tho in cidents of years ago, the history of this farm and tiie history of that fam ily until tho destination is reached before you are half dono telling—all this makes life fresh again, and the burdens of life much lighter. When we get back homo we have enough on hand to interest the “old woman” for a year—enough to keop ns in a good humor a whole winter. We can sit down and smoke and talk until the children aro all asleep and tho “old lady” begins to nod. We are hardly like tho same person, so reno vating is a trip from home. Housekeepers, when the "old man” gets crusty and snarlish send Him home for a while. Farmers, when the “old woman” begins to get in a peevish, fretful,unsatisfactory humor send her on a visit. You will not know each other upon a reunion— you’ll think it another honey-moon and courting days come again. There is a magic in a visit. Moro anon. FINANCIAL & COMMERCIAL.

New Revised Edition, Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every subject. Printed from new type, and illus trated with Several Thousand Engravings and Mups. The work originally published under the title of Tux New American Cycloilkdu. was com pleted In 1803, since which time the wide circula tion which it has attained iu all parts of the United States, aud the signal developments which have taken place! iu every branch of science, lit erature and art, have induced the editors and publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue anew edition untitled The American Cyclopedia. Within tho last ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge bus made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political nffairs has kept pace with the discoveries ol science, and their lruitfu application to the industrial and useful arts ami the convenience aud refinement of social life. Great wars and consequent revolutions havo oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when tho last volume oi the old work appeared, has happily been ended, aud u new course of commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical ku<>wl edge Lave been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of tho last de cade, with tho natural result of tho lapse of time, havo brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names aro iu every one’s mouth, and of whoso lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have bqpn fought and important sieges maintained, ot which the de tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or iu the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take t/ieir place iu perma nent and authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it lias accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down tho information to the latest possi ble dates, aud to furnish an accurate account of the moat recent discoveries iu science, of every fresh production in literature, aud of the newest inventions iu the practical arts, us well us to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources lor carrying it on to u successful term iuutiou. None of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming iu fact anew Cyclopiedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, ami with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time iu the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all brandies of science and of natural history, and depict tho most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture and art, as well as tho various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than embelishment, no pains have been spared to in sure tlicir artistic excellence; tho cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of tho Cyclopuidia, aud worthy of its high character.

Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that we have prepared it, aud applied it. aud proved it in our Anti-malarial or Eucliymial Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit the worst malarial districts without tho fear of having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills aud Fever, Billion* or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and Splecu, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem orrhoids, aud that it will cure all the above dis eases, except tlio worst case* of Billioua and Yel low Fever. This is called un Auti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody and produce* a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, and thufi enabling it to per.orm its various duties without fearing the effects of malaria in tho least.
