of East Tennessee are capable Of doing their own
voting without dctation from foreigner who
yet has the brogue fresh upon him. But a word
more for Davidson's benefit: whenever he wants to
divide time with any other speaker down there,
Just ask him If he win I'll another list of appoints
ments with Moses White! He would rather meet
Andrea E1ing again at Lebanon than undertake
that.
But am extending this letter TO too great
length, and for the present win bring to close.
We win send down strong delegation to your
great mass meeting on the 10th October.
Again assure your readers that all is well in East

firm, and Tennessee win go for Fillmore and Dom

Democracy.

The literal meaning of Democracy is
Government by the People," The name was
adopted in this country by the party opposed
to the FG,leralsts and their scheme of an
hereditary Presidency, which should descend
like the crown Of the King from father to
son. This was the Democracy of Jefferson,
Madison. Monroe and jackson. The Demo-
cracy of the disciples of Mr.. Buchanan is.
when one orthc ''pcopic," (demos) dare to say
anything about politics, to put him down
with the cry of "tNiicrMe." The people are
very fine fellows, good democrats. so long as
they vote blind for an old FcdcraliSt. Then
It's 'all hight, come up boys, hurrah for the
people," But let one of these peopie who
has been deprived of the advantages of an
education, who, working nights and Sundays,
manages to obtain more real, useful knowl-
edge than the calfwho has blundcrcd through
college: let one of them dare question the
propricty of voting for an acknowledged sup
porter of that old Federalism which devised
an hereditary Presidency, and he is told that
he is too 'Hitcrdte" to talk about such things.

Mr.. EDITOR II find the following para
graph in The Cecil Democrat of last Satur-
day: - --
Thc evidence is every day cumulating that Mr.
tillmorcs Northern supporters believe him to be
Frcesoilcr. They all excuse his one vote on the
compromise. ON the ground that he was compcllcd
by force ot circumstances. Leave that vote out of
the question, and he stands before the South us
arrant frccsoler as ever diSsraccd our county,
Now, sir, will you please to tell me when
Mr.. Fillmore "rotrd" for the Compromise,
and what Compromise 1t was he "coicd" for.
Ii 1t Is the Compromise of 1880 that Is meant,
why it happens that Mr.. Gilmore was Prcsi-
dent Of the United States when it was ''rOird"
Cor. When the Missouri Compromise was
''roied' for, Mr.. Fillmore was about 20 years
old, and, instead Of voting for Compromises,
was writing in Judge Woods Office, and
teaching school three months in the year,
ondcavorlnS to obtain an education. There
was another Compromise in 1898, but as Mr..
Fillmore did not take his first scat in Con-
grcSs until the following session, it is hardly
likely that he ''roied" for it.
Now, Mr.. Editor, will you or some of your
correspondents. or some of your "Mie,uie"
Know Nothing speakers tell us what Com.
promise it was Mr.. Fillmore ''roted" for
Really. sir, we are very "Witcr0e" here, so
much so that we don't know any body for
whom to vote but Mr.. Fillmore, and unless
we are enlightened on that 'roic" for the
Compromise, fear we will prove the truth
of the declaration made by one of our three"
Buchanan mon to a citizen Of Elkton day
or two ago, viz:-that lone might as well
try to get upa class meeting in - as a

Gently making their boasts that the Hon.
Chas. Ready, member Of Congress from Ten
ncsScc, would 90 for their candidate. lie has,
however, put their hopes to flight bya power
full letter to the Tennessee papers. We give
the closing portions of it, setting forth certain
truths which all the patriots Of the country
should know:
But am told by Mr. Buchanan's support
crs, Mr.. Fillmore has no chance to be elected,
and as Southern man ought to vote for
Buchanan. reply to all such, they arc ms.
taken. II is Bntha,an who has no chance 10 be
'lected. Since the hllzzils of the delegates to
the Cincinnati Convention have died away
and the smoke made by The firing of cannon,
upon the announcement Of their nomination,
las dispersed so the field may be calmly sur
vcycd, and the vantage ground determined. it
is perfectly manifest, that, against Fremont
alone, he could not carry Il single Northern
State, and Fremont would be elected, even
without single Southern vote. MR. BUCIl-
ANAN Is NOT IN TIE REAL CONTEST.
1t is now manifest Fillmore will carry scv-
clal Northern States; and if the South desires
to elect national man, she will cast her en-.
tire vote for him. Whether she does or not,
If his friends III the South, who prefer him to
amy other candidate, will take a bold and de-
tcrlnincd stand for him, he will he triumph

Mr.. EplToR:-Thc days Of political excite
mcnt are rrviving, and as travel over the
country the subject of the presidency is a
prominent item of conversations aud from
some of the neghboring democratic papers
learn some things ahcut our county that had
not heard at home. In the Delaware Gazette
of the Sth it is stated that at the meeting AT
Elktcn on Tuesday George Earle Esq, recent
ly Il member of the whig party made an able
and eloquent speech on the occasion, he could
not admit the propricty of placing an aboli-
zionist IN the Presidential chair, and therefore
united with the Democrats. In the same
article it is also stated that handsome hicko-
ry rolr has been raised in front Of the Office
of the Cecil Dcmociat-as these papers pub.
fish nothing but tr"ih, these of chnrSc must be
TIRE. but | had not found it out before.
rs the American Legislature of FIX Cover
nor Pratt = native State has appointed his
successor, he says nc will have to retire from
the Senate after the 4tll ofMarch, and this
has opened his eyes to the virtues Of the Lo-
cofocoS, his old enemies, to whom he has gone
over body and hrecchcs, and would fain have
taken over the whole whig party Of Maryland
bit ne co"M not. Senator Ptarce too "has
taken much pans to ascertain the strength of
Mr.. Fillmore" and he thinks that Buchanan
will be stronger, and that it will be the part
of wisdom to vote for him though from the
drift of his letter we are led to infer that he
prefers Fillmore. These illuStriouS statesmen
and learned Swans, in order to prevent the
election of Fremont would break down the
Fillmore party in the south and drive Fillmore
from the field and arouse the sectional feel
ings of the north into the support Of FL cnont
and secure his election beyond doubt.
Two very handsome hickory poles were cut
in the 4th District on Hickory Hill, and were
to be raised in Elkton on the 5th and there
was great talk about having them hauled
down with III yoke If oxen, but they could
not be hanlcd.-it is said that they Offered

Mn. BGcHANAN's. NIGGAnDLlNEss.- Some
years ago the widow of the late Gen. jacob
Brown applied to the Congress of which Mr.
Buchanan was a member for the balance of
her husband s salary for the unexpircd year
in which he died. Gen. b. had spent a for
tune in the service of his country, and con-
tracttd disease in that service of which he
died, leaving his widow in perjury. Her APP
peal 10 Congress, besides resting upon strict
justice, involved only miserable pittance
which no man with the heart ola man in him
could refuse. But James Buchanan refused
He set bis face "likc flint" against the just
and touching appeal of the widow of q Revo-
lulionary soldier. Hcvoted No! Wouldn't
it be beautiful justice if this vote should re-
turn to him in November with voice of ten
thousand thunders, to haunt his mouldy and
tcnantless old heart forever? Wouldn't it be
horrid injustice if it shouldn't?

KILLED BY LIdHTNING.- On Friday
afternoon, The Sth inst, while several persons
were engaged at building house on The
farm of Aaron j. Kitchener, in the 9th Dist,
a storm came on and they took shelter in the
building. Itwas not rooted and for better
protection two Of the number, John Refer
and John Connolly got in the fire place.
The house was struck by lightning, the fluid
passing down between the weather boarding
aud the chimney US low as the arch of the
fire place, when it passed through, killing
Refer instantly. Connolly, who was touch
ing him, was but slightly injured. Another
of the party, Henry Wilson, was thrown with
his head against IL ioist and severely hurt.
George Brown was also stuuncd--thc others
escaped without injury. The house re-
ccivcd but little damage.
