ingly that our neighbors have thought proper /
to apply such epithets to any man who stands |
so high in the estimation of large portion of |
the citizens of Tennessee Union and AReri- |
can.
NO doubt you regret exceedingly" also
that in 1874, the Nashville Union said of |
Gov. Jones--this same Richmond" of
yours-"he has meUer seen a moment IN has
"tfe achen he 0Outid hare ygiren the first Joint
"Of his little finger to HAVE SAVED HIS Re.
'DEEMER FROM cRUcIFIMoNp Probably, you
regret exceedingly" too that one of you
in lS48, declared that Wings who had
escorted Gov. Jones-your hero of to-day
into the city, and listened to a speech from
him, "sLUNK AWAY IN UTTER DISGUST AT WHAT
THEY HAD DoNEw And you 'regret exceed
ingly," we are sure, that one of you in
'lS4S, in the following pithy paragraph,
reminded Gov. Jones-your Slievegammon
champion-Of his courageous imputations
upon the character of Gen. Jackson, whilst
hob nobbing with coterie of his friends at
a private social gathering in East Ten
rnessee:
zone would have thought, from hearing
Gov. Jones yesterday, that there had lived at
least one brave man since Caesar. The Gov
ernor learned this style of talking at the old
brick meeting house, where the poor woman
was turned out of church. BY the way, the
Governor hates all women since Old Hickory
got hold of him about that story of turning
( that woman out of the church. That is tile
reason of his dsrespectful allusion to lady in
his speech yesterday"
We are quite sure, too, that you "regret
exceedingly" that the Prophet of Mt. Pts
gah, glorious old Aaron ", should have
had the audacity to speak of Gov. Jones
as he does in the following extract from
speech of his, made on the 9th October,
lS48:
"Gov Brown said he was surprised at the
course Gov. Jones had pursued; that he held it
dish0R0TabLe; aye, diShOnOrd6le, Is the word
for one adversary to assail another in his alb.
sence, or when his hands were tied, and he
knew no reply could be made. This course,
said he, was not the rule of high anG honora-
bic debate.
But sirs, understand from respectable au-
thority that at Franklin, Of he did it here,
did not hear it, he complained that on my re-
turn homeward from Mississippi, fabricated
and propsgated report that he also probably
had or would return home on account of the
sickness of his family, and would not probably
fill his appointments in the last few counties,
and that he denounced the invention and pro-
pagation of the report in the most offensive
language. Sirs, have to reply To this, that if
Gov. Jones intended then to raise question of
personal veracity with me, | warn him to re-
member that in all thst relates to rerdcity lie
lines in glass house so JrdiI that boys marble
can smash it all to pieces.
And whilst you are "regretting exceed
ingly," we doubt not you lament most
sincerely, that the Nashville Union on the
23d of August, 1874, insulted Gov. Jones
and the thousands of Clay Wings of that
day, by publishing the following Internal
I picture of Henry Clay. We can scarcely
repress the feelings of indignation which it
