1 over-heated and misguided zeal produced. as
might have been looked for, reaction in pub

tai TO the cause Of GEN Jack SON throu ghout The

they never would vote for man whose princi

distinguished individual. Hence the strength
Of Tho. d. Arnold. The people, in many pla-
ces, rallied around him, merely because they be-

his cause has received, are those which have
been given him by truth. II is all true enough,
as is acknowledged In the sequel Of this very
article that every where else, as well as in Ten
nessee, "ali the quiet, peaceahie and moderate
portions Of the State the friends Of the Adj
minis,ra,ion;" while wall the noisy and ambi-
tiously aspiring part of the community" arr
