,H CLARKsyILLE, July Is, 1855.
Mr. EDITOR: As 1 was going home yesterday
evening, walked up poverty Row." and heard a
mighty fuss among the Sag NIGHTS. Some of them
were talking cuss talk and there was general row
among the Sag NIGHT brethren. Some were saying
at was" and some said ''it wasn't" some said it
was good thing, and some said it was nonsense,
and that nobody who had any sense would have
written any such thing. l was very anxious to
know what the Sag NIGHTS were talking cuss talk
at each other for, but did not like to go in and mix
myself with any such fellows. knew from their
brogue that they were Sag NIGHTS took a stand
across the street. and saw two American fellows
in there laughing like all fun, and so knew they
had "sorrrounded" that lot of Sag NIGHTS and got
them cornered. Presently they called the Kurnel
over The is the head of the Sag NIGHTS here, and
gave him big book to read, and said it was the
Journal Of the Legislature. All the Sag NIGHTS
stopped as still as a mouse when the Kurnel come
to tell them show it was" The Kurnel read Andys
great message where he wanted to tear the constl-
tuition loose to have about q hundred can
ddates for President and Vice President. When
he finished reading it, he looked serious and hard
at the book, as though he was trying to find the
"pnt" All at once he jumped up and said it was
a base forgery, an infamous fraud and a Know
Nothing trick He said Andy never wrote any
such message; but one of the American fellows
told the Kurnel that it was printed at the Union
and American Office. That ''kind a stumped" the
Kurnel, and he did not know what to say. Then
one of "them Sag NIGHT fellows" who thought it
was not so bad at 6rst said he did not understand
it himself, but he knew Andy could explain it, if
he were here. He knew Andy had some ''pint"
in it, and he was going to write to him and find it
out. He knew Andy did not want sixty and one
hundred candidates running at once for nothing
Some of them think that Andy can explain how
you can make man vote for candidate from his
State and still have election the first time.
One of the Sag Night fellows is going to write to
Mr.. Eastman to see if he did not print the message
wrong. He talked strong cuss talk, but one Of the
Sag NIGHTS hunched him and told ''him 20 DON'T"
that it was printed at the Union Office, and not to
say a word ''agin" il.
The Sag NIGHTS down here are "awful mad, ;" and
swear they would not vote for member of the
American party, and some even threaten to leave
the State if Andy is beaten. There is general
row among them to-day at Port Royal, but it will
do no good Andy's parallel lines have converged
to q small point here, and the Jacobs ladder which
he left with the Sag NIGHTS when he was here, for
them to go to heaven on, has lost all its rounds
OUT and they have concluded TO charter small
craft and leave for Salt River on the I'd August
Gentry will get about 200 votes in old Montgom-
cry more than Maj. Henry received. Perhaps Gen.
try's majority may be 600, but think it will not
exceed 500. SAMUEL.
