Inspcctors of the PenitenIiary.

Gov. JOHNSON nominated to the Senate last
Saturday, for conf nation, new board OF In.
spectors of the Penitentiary. What is in the
wind, MOVIE Why has the Governorsturned
the /" cold shoulder TO the Inspectors, whom,
two years ago, he took extraordinary steps to
place in Officer Has he found them, or a ma
jority of them, unwilling TO submit TO hs usur-
patton and dctaiion2 II has been reported
on the streets, for some time past, that he has
been trying to extort from them promise to
re-appoint his legeman, WHITE, keeper of the
State Prison, and TO assent TO the removal Of
Mr. HAYs, the only offense Of the latter being
the fact that lac is a member of the American
Party, and a majority Of them refused TO coln-
ply with his wishes. Finding them unwilling
60 yield to his unlawful interference, il is said
that he then tried to prevail upon them TO re-
sign; and as they declined doing so, he now
seeks to gain his point by appointing an entire
" new Board. ANDY is determined to avail
himself of every means To place power in his
own hands. He cares not "a fig" for the
rights of Others, when they conflict with his
wishes, and 50 he can but grasp and exercise
a little more authority, to build up his private
interests, his inspectors together with the peo-
pie of davidson county Gn his claste lan-
guage) may go to he'll and be damnedl" Ne
shall see whether another triumph is in store
for him
