The GAINESVILLE Chronicle thinks that we are try
ing to get up a feeling of antagouism between Gen.
ZoIUoorFER and itself The Chronicle is mistaken.
We have been deprecatng the feeling of antngOnism
with which il has pursued Gen ZoLLIooFFER for re-
fusing to follow the lead Of Mr. BELL the Kansas
question.
The Chronicle denounced the LecOmP;on bill for
which Gen ZoLLICoFFER voted and SO ably defended
AS q fraud ami an outrage"
Ii denounced the Compromise Conference bilI-iR
the support Of which Gen. ZoLLIooFFER was equally
zeaous-as "a humiliating evidence Of corruption,
and ian attempt to carry by bribery measure re
Pusive to the majority Of Congress, which ought to
arouse the Indignation Of the whole country"
The Chronicle furthermore intimates in the very
last number that the passage of this bi-whoh Gen.
ZoLucOFTER has been working for-was secured by
bribery.
And yet the Chronicle charges us with attempting
to stir up feeling Of antagonism" between itself
and Gen. q because we have be en- unwilling to see
this gentleman thus assaied-poIitical enemy as he
is-Without defending him from the outrageous as
saults Of Mr.. BELLS friends. Upon this question
Gen. ZOLmCoFFER and ourselves stand together, and
we stand in antagOnism to Mr.. BELL, the Chronicle
and the Black Republicans; and we tell the CbrOHi
Gle that it need not expect to make its insidious
thruss at those of its party who have had the man.
illness and patriotism to act with the Democracy in
this instance and not have them exposed. Unless
we mistake the temper of the men, Mr.. BELL aud
his followers will not be permitted to ride rough
shod over those Of their party, who spurning their
dictatiOn, chose TO act The better part Of pursuing
patriotic national course upon the Kansas question.
If the CbrOHicle, Franklin R,rieo, MurfreesborO'
Telegraph Lebanon Herald, Knoxville Register, and
other papers think they make any thing by this
kind Of warfare let them keep The future shall
determine.

me LOUTsVTLLE DEMOCRAT.

This once able and popular Democratic journal,
having abandoned its party is preparing its way for
the new coalition. Like all renegades, its editor
insists that the Democracy have abandoned him
Be that it may he is now warning against his old
party with as much energy and zeal as he ever bat
tied for ii in past times.
We regret having 70 make this announcement.
We have entertained very high respect for the zeal
and integrity Of our Louisville contemporary We
had thought that few men would suffer martyrdom
for principle mere readily than the editor of the
Democrat Though never fully ooinciding with him
in sentiment, we had learned to regard him IS one
Of the few men who could not be turned from an
honest course by any influence or consideration
His style writer always pleased us-being plain,
pointed, forcible and bold. We donot know another
Democratic editor in the South whose apostacy
would have oocasiOned US 50 serious regret. We
are unwilling even now to believe that he is one of
the ninety in every hundred, Who in abandon
ing the Democracy and going to the enemy, are
aotuated solely by corrupt and selfish considerations
We incline, in charity to the belief that the course
Of the Democrats attributable more to having loved
Mr.. DOUGLAS 'not wisely but too WE'LL than to any
lets worthy motive This gave its editor the wrong
bent at the start, and being distinguished fer his
obsinacy, one bad step led to another, until at
last he has ventured beyond all hope Of retreat.
This is another instance, land history Is full Of
them,l Of the folly Of following too much after men,
It has been one Of the greatest evils to mankind
through all sges that few have done the thinking
for the many. If such a mind as that which has
heretofore conducted the Democrat, can be warped
by the influence of distinguished party leader to
the abandonment oflOng cherished principles, what
else can we expect than that great many of the
less observing people will be caught by the same
snare.
The opposition have cause of congratulatiOn over
their new convert They will find him, in every
cOmmendabe respect, She superior of their present
organ the editor Of the Louisville Journal To such
Of the opposition in Tennessee are determined to
take Louisville paper, we recommend the Democrat
as in every way worthy of their support.
In conclusion, we have q parting request to make
Of our contempOrary-and that is to change the
name Of mis- paper. Any thing else but Democrat
will answer. Do not dishOnor yourself by fighting
under false cOlOrs, but adopt the flag of the new
party, whatever that may be. To profess still to
edit a Democratic paper will be inconsistent with
that mHnliness of character for which you have
heretofore sustained an honorable reputation.

than IN any other single place in the United States.
It is there that the choicest specimens Of the weed

Of devoted oheWers everywhere. Tobacco is put up
in as many different ways almost there are chew

there for that purpose. With many citizens the
road to wealth has been paved With t9bseeo.
