A SHAREHOLDERS VIEW OF THE RE
CENT TROUBLE IN TENNESSEE.
Hon. Lncien b. Chase. formerly n Democratic
member OF Congress from Tennessee, Though we
believe a native Of New IIampshite) has written
u letter 90 tie n. Y. Mirror, in which he gives his
views of the recent insurrectiOnary movements in
Tennessee. After sayiag that Tennessee is not
often subjected TO the raids of abolitionists or az
lected by incendiary publications, that the slaves
are we'll fed and clothed and not overworked, he
proceeds to an inquiry into the causes Of their dis
content. And he traces the trouble to the presi.
dental election. lie says that the people Of Ten
nessce discuss politics very thoroughly, all the
candidates for Office being Obliged to take the
stump, and the contest being very animated on ac.
count of the doubtful character Of the State.-
During the exciting contest between the Wings
and Democrats from 1899 to 1856. during which
The Democrats prevailed eight times and the Wings
seven, Mr.. Chase says: Politics was the absOJb-'
ing topic of conversation they were discussed in
tho parlOr, in the dining room, in the fields, at the
court, on the highway, in the quarters Ut the
slaves, in short everywhere. and upon all occas-
ions and the bank, the tariff, tho sub-treasury,
internal Improvement and Mexican war questions,
were not only thoroughly understood ny the whites
put something more th"i n ialnt ldea Oh tne'f
