TENNESSEE.

The election returns from Tennessee are
or from cheering to the canse Of correct
Driinciples. We have little doubt, that Polk
win be elected and probably eight OF the l3
members on the side Of the administration.
Nothing shows more clearly the power Of the
General Government and its hosts of office
holders Than the corrupt means used to sustain
The party in power. Liberal promises Of Of
fee were made to those who would be most
active, and by that system Of political manGu-
vering has the great change been brought
about.
The returns from Indiana also show no
cause for graduation, the same system having
every where been made to operate and bribery
and corruption have done their Office. Honest
men shrink abashed from pursuing the prac-
tees which the party in power has managed
10 WELD SO successfully.

Another murder.-After the above paragraph
written, another instance of murder, the fruit of
Drunkenness came under our notice. The Elizabeth
City IN. o. Phoenix mentions the death OF q Mr..
Abner G Sawyer Of Camden, N. c., towards the close
Of the late election. Some young men had left Eliza
beth City for the election ground. During the after
noon little alteration had taken place about the
hire Of cart, IN which they had gone part Of the way
to the Court House On their return not being able to
make the change, the difficulty was renewed. Mr..
Charles Davis threw Mr.. Sawyer the Ground, and a
James D. Gregory stabbed him fatally. Mr. Sawyer
received three wounds, reaching the Of the
neck and causing death in hours The parties, says
the Phoenix. were all intoxicated The affair un-
connected with po tcs.
