A writer in the Gallatip Tenth
Legion expresses the wish that the
gallant TrousJale should receiYe an
appointment under the pew admins
5ration+ Not hing would give US
More Sd tisfaction than such an event.
Gen. Trousdalb deserves well Of his
country and his party -Uashnlle
Union. 80
We copy the above, to add, that
in cur opinion such an eY ent would
be highly satisfactory to b 9th wings
and democrats! Gov. Trousd;lle has
been brave defender Of bis CO pntry.
He is Il gentleman of sterlf ing moral
character. He has grown bld, and is
poor. Though his politic;i opinions
are, in our opinion, erroneoh s, Yet We
cannot iorbear to say that we should
be truly gratiied to see | Iim placed
in some honor lble and lucfative po-
sition under the government - Nash-
rifle Banner.
The above extracts refld Jet q uni.
yersal sentlme emit Of the press and
people Of II nhessee. I he Paris
Constitutioh suggests the Mexican
Mission as Suitable, andlikelE to prove
acceptable to Gov. Troud dale. OF
oye TACT we are conGddnt Hat no dis
senter could BID fonnd within the ranks
Of either party in Tennessee, to the
appointment of Gov. Trio bsdale to
an honorable and responsible position
under the iucPming ADMINISTRATION
If ever ma d has fairly wdn, by Sc
we're and eh ain eht service, 4me CRATE
full tribute frd m his cou1 try, it is
Gov. Trouslale +. The grea ter portion
of his life ha 5 been devo ted to his
country's ser vice? He has never
shrunk from the dischaf ge Of the
most trying d htv. His y hole histo-
ry attests h self-sacrififing spirit
which claims no reward, but which
deserves the " ry highest reward, be-
cause it has been free fro mercena
~ or selfish nd otiyes. | h the battle
field where BID has often been found
fighting with d gallantry unsurpass-
cd by the most distinguished Of our
heroes he his fully and fairly won a
title to the highest consiq Iteration from
the Government. Whilst his inferi-
ors in every a Tribute Of the patriot
and the soldier have noi4ily won their
way to aflluente and tation. he has
ever forborne i irtrude himself or his
claims upon public notice. We know
well has genefous and noble nature
and that he would scorn to sue for
Office Or station at the hands Of the
President or d ny power. In this re-
gard h has e or maintained deli
cady bad mo desty which may be
reckol ed by s. me to he overscrupu-
lous, \ et it displays that sensitive
feeling Which tan spring from none
but tile most disinterested and hon
or ble Natives And in this respect
heI is found III illustrious company;
for thd Presid ent elect is Just such
INA IN, alI lad 5 pursued a course
throuB hI life based on the principles
ant ofiginatilIg in the same generous
m tiy es. wv think It is therefore
hi III Time tha those rewards, which
arc til e best Acentise TO patriotic &C.
tions to our Iouth, and which G9v
TT Gus dale confessed SO emlnently
m4ritF, should be rendered to him. h
w / flel the Highest confidence that
a sta ion bef 4ting his deserts will be
tehde led him BY the President elect,
vi 10 WAS his foupanion-in arms, and
WHO has d roper estimate OF hls
chara tter and abilities -lleDphls
