Hon A. DuscAs, House Of Representatives.
What are we think OF this speech of Judge White
"a Senator in Congress- supporter OF the Gag Bill
now stepping out OF his 9fetaE shoes to make par
fizas karansRe for publication the OF one OF the
most important elections held in this Stat, What
nre we to think Of this oeiat interference, this abuse
Of power given him by the people-tAiS DIcTATloS?-
IT'S TINE TO Prose!
lie. the people Of Tennessee take the matter IN their
own hands: Let those who love Judge White but
love no, his faus-i!ose who would support him while
true himself but cannot support HIM now that he Is
true only Mr. Ciay-decide the question. II requires
no great strength Of vision to discover that The hhg
party in Tennessee is nothing more nor less than "a
Clay PARTY! =
We have, however one more paragraph from Judge
Whe'a speech 10 Ie.aark upon. IL Is Tins.
nhs tIath is we are Ign'ng me Country oy excessive
a Is n, 10 handle md take care Of and i he can only
manage keep enough To give good dinners be IS CON
sidered and spoken of kind, good feiow-an unior
tunae deiauer-and IS considered 1T associate
and compl MON for best society This is oil wrong
Whenever he is called thief, pointed al as one, and
secuted from society because he is dishonest shnll
check this alarming and growing mischief. Upon the
sovereign people themselves every Thing depends no"
they exercise their right OF suffrage.
This is every word true. Swar,~out was one OF The
greatest dinner giySrs in the whole Northern and East
ern country lie fairly sureiled his iriends-no appoint
menl made by the late Administration was so pc
pular among its opponents that by his great dinners
he drew so many Of all parties around him tina! it was
almost impossible for the President 10 get rid of him, so
Urgent the New York public in his beha!f We nIn
Judge White in the conclusion, that the DEFAulTEk
should Be called thief pointed atas one and secuted from
society because he IS dishonest This highland this
is of The stronges, reasons why the CossrTuTioSAL
TREASURY (aganst which we notice the Judge, In this
lapy ,t
the and-for it recognizes pEFAULrER as COMMON
rELoS. ,cko shall he punished by Imprisonment an the
PENiTENrlARY from TWO TO FIVE YEARS! Let The
Sub.Treasury pass therefore, and these roiue robbers
which the Administration eschsws as much as Judge
White does, will meet their deserts.
In conclusion, must be allowed The remark, that we
have ample charity for Judge White We respect him
as man-but cannot allow him to make his own
nisortunes substitute tor the Republican OF the
the country before the Intelligent eemen OF Tennessee
We have ample charity for the old gentleman, for we
know tina, the lively oraces of inspiration not ,ruer
than is the following extract IRON Mr. BtA Nashville
Speech in 1885:

pride Of victory in all great minds that with The pures
