ACKNOWLEDGEMENT IN THE CRIME,

Sir George Brown, in bis speech at bennington, Eng
land defends the conduct of the war in the Crnea and
that of the officers The ccndescendng ia which
he speaks of those who have raised themselves by their
merit is amusing and shows the arrogance Of the
that he belongs TO- He says:
~ is mistake and Misrepresentation that the
officers of the army generally and habitualy naenye
their duty, that the condition of the troops would be
improved by having larger portion of them drawn from the
ranks, for it is precisely because they gentlemen that the
much attached to them Although, therefore,
far from meaning to speak in dparagement Of individuals
whoma have raised emseipe Jy their merit many Of
whom know to be in the highest degree respectable
that the military service of the country would be popu
lar and discipline would not be well maintained il the
majority of the officers were OF this description"
Sir George Brown would make a very acceptable leader
in the next Louisville riot he is thorough know-noh-
ing. He stands up for his 'set' like a hero What right
have the ignorant rish the solid English the preudiced
Scotch to obtrude their aspirations against the regularly
admitted members of the orderT They ought to be sat
sfed to bleed and die in the delicious evoutions Of the
Crimea-to perish like dogs Of disease and of negccor

RESULT or THE ELECTION IN TENNESSEE.


Whatever may be said OF the result Of elections in
other respects think taken in connexion with that in
Virginia. it ought at least teach opponents the folly
and asity Of one of their mptionsthat the demo-
cratic party is dcfunct and broken up To adhere still to
such assumption argues but little in favor of the merits Of
"Sam" To be routed and defeated by rotten, corrupt
deunct concern must say the least of it, be humiang
the 1t is hardly prcsumabe moreover that
respectable majority Of the American people are the
dupes and tools of demagogues and political hacks has
been argued by the Samtesl
The truth is the principles of the know nothing party
only need exposition to be put down. The ree-soiers of
the North the only persons that have turned the
ganization to any account IL flourish in the
South and the prediction that another polt
cal battle win be fought in Tennessee under Sans
leadership We only hope but believe that the hyme
NAL bonds celebrated in Faneul Hail. Boston, in 1885, by
Hon John Bell between Massachusetts, and Tennessee
severed forever The divorce is thorough aud complete
and will prove perpetual The triumph OF democracy over
this new-angled organization has added another wreath
to its laurel crown aud fixed it firmly If possible in
the hearts Of all Americans and patriots 1t has
proved itself the only true party Of the country and the
rock upon which the of faction and anaticism have
stranded Its principles engraed in the constr
tuition, and those who worship at its affairs make that in
srument the polar Of their guidance Let them
nue keep their party and their principles pure and it
will never be in the power Of Sam any other mythical
