Interests are involved in the OF the parties
at this time Governor Trousdse has been long the ia
vofe OF the good, oldfashoned democratic county OF
Sumner having received there his education and train
ing and having mel her highest expectations not only in
the field OF battle but in every civil employment which
he has been called from that OF attorney the bar to
the Office of governor OF the State There is no field of
glory distinguished by the services OF citizen sodiery
in the southern country that has yielded laurel TO this
brave gallant, and talented man and are confident
that the people of Tennessee, who have elevated him to
the highest Office within their gift will not depreciae
the value OF these aures by refusing entwine them
in the civic wreath which due 10 his able admnisira
ton of the Office Of governor
In order to counteract the influence naturally sprngng
from the useful services OF such man as Governor
Trousdale, the wings have induced Judge Campbell to
vacale Office which conferred upon him for sim
liar military servces-thus thinking to neu,ralize the
force OF such merit and avail themselves of another OPP
portnny TO obtain power by the divisions which have
been created in Tennessee respecting the best mode Of
arrestng the spirit of anacsm in the northern States
Hence the keen eye and the eloquent tongue OF Col
Gentry could not let pass opportunity call to the
aid of his party another experiment. like that which
succeeded with the Of Harrison and Taylor,
to put men into office, but not principles into the
administration of the government, which needed to
keep the ship Of State where Washington, Jeferson and
jackson placed it. What is the judgment OF the country
already upon the combinations which were resored to 10
place General Harrison in the presidency! Is there
single measure record to which the future historian
will point sufficient, il intended. TO repress the
many evils which then developed the fruit of
sectional strife and personal ambition And is the
observation still more true when applied to the admins
traon Of General Taylor, under whose auspices the Will
mot Provso received rebuke and the opportunity OF
saving the Union was almost lost, and would certainly
have been So but for the timely nerposon Of those pa
triotc who had been thrown aside by those who
clamored loudes tina, this successful general not
| party man.
We say TO the democrats Of Tennessee, the game
about to be played upon you again. unless you discard
all minor differences Of opinion, and rally around your
principles your soldiers did against the common
enemy at New Orleans and in Mexico. Think only
| OF your counlry--of the old principles of repub-
lican democacy-and believe not those who tell you
that the support of whggety is the support of the
Compromise of the last session II the declarations OF
Col Gentry true why has he not thought Of MIR. Clay
or Mr.. Webster who the champions OF that Com
promise the candidate of his pay Call upon him 10
explain why that Gen. Scott has been nominated by
number OF the wings in New England, in Della
ware, New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Michigan.
Tell him explain why it is that Mr. Clayton General
Tayor's Secretary OF State, has openly declared for
General Scott and that Mr. Seward the friend OF General
Scott, is out openly against the fugitive, slave law.

| Gov Hunts Proclamation.
| The proclamation issued by Governor Hunt shows how
much reliance placed by the political impostors at AL
bany upon decevng the people regard to the true state
OF affairs at the capitol One hundred days no longer
found sufficient Tor the purposes OF the party in power IN
this State Hence we find them by Legislative legerde
main crowding important business into he asi days Of
session. and then by refusing to act upon the supply bills
for the coming year. unless they force through
constitutional party measure abruptly breaking up the
legislature and converting an extra session.
The proclamation, Stale paper, IS the most puere
and undgnlfed that ever emanated from the executive
department OF this Stale The necessity for an extra
sion il shown, with The aid OF misrepresenta
ton to which the author Of the proclamation resorts
The supply bills maured, and could have been acted
upon less time than spent in sta wing OH action by
the wings upon those very bills aud as they intend
ed for the next fiscal year there would but little suffering
have resulted from the delay. But was untrue as we
read the proceedings that Senator Carros attendance in
the senate had been compelled, that he had lett with
out leave. He had absented himself from the senate
chamber on the passage OF the nine million debt BILL as
-
that he would be present. as he had uniformly
BEEN to aid in the contamination OF other business II

necessary and inexcusable.
But the real object lies deeper than any indication OF
the governors proclamation His exceliency makes no
auson 10 the nine million BILL nor 10 the congressional
apporonment In anticipation OF the defeat which
awaits the wing party in the State, II had been prede-
