We never knew an election N any STATE the
result Of which was better calculated to kseF
both parties in a state OF equilibrium, than The
one that has Just t~ansp.red g. Tennessee.
While neither partyi can elaim-5r, at least,
while neither party seems disposed 20 claim a
victory, neither party a~cknowledge defeat
While he Democrats have carried their Gov
ernor and Legislature by handsome majoriies,
the O7posf ton have carried seven ont Of the
ten Congressman. This is a complete reversal
Of things. the Democrats having seven and he
Opposition three in the last Congress. This
places US in q " bad box provided the cleo
uon Of President goes into the House OF Rep
reseutatires. This is an unpleasant reelection
But what we dislike more than an else, is
the defeat Of the noble and gallant ATKNs.
His campaign was a brilliant one, and we
never allowed ourselves 70 doubt Of his sue
cess. HIS defeat throws a gloon over all the
successes we have achieved. The tenth district
has proved herself the Democratic Gibraltar
Of the STATE, and in this we feel both a pei
sonal and political pride, bu. the success Of
ETHERIDeE over ATKINS, robs Us Of an dispo-
sition to rejoice over the victories We have
achieved.
In a few days We shall treat our readers to
the comments Of the New York Tribuns on the
election of E~rHERDGE.f

These figures confirm what we said a dsF OF
two ago that the rote Of the STATE ID this
election wou.d prove 70 be much the largest
ever cas- IN The ate The aggregate vote IL
the counties above referred 10, 1856, when the
heaviest vote which had ever been cast in The
state was polled, was S7,42S. II 1857 It was
sfSg7. Nov it is g2.4I0. The vote this year
is probably fifteen thousand larger than any
preceding vote for Governor, and seven OF eigh
thousand larger than any vote fer PresIient
The vote OF the Safe can never Be more close
by pooled than it has been IN this election, and
he Democratic majority in the state mag b.
considered fixed at from eight 10 ten thousand.
Inc hgures above show that Harris mai0ri-
as Tar a. heard from, is 1908 larger than
Bachanan's IN 1856, and only SCI less than
La24. We mink bis majority may BE- safely s-
amsied above eight thousand ANasfrils

HAULT OF THE OPPOSITION.

Last night the Opposition had a rally at the
BEDFORD House, on the idea that E~TAERIDGE
had been elected to Congress in the Ninth Dis
uict. The meeting was addressed by B. D.
NABERs, Esq, and B. F. C. Books, ESQ.
Other speakers were called for, but did not
obey the Il was understood that
the Opposition had invited Mr.. ETHERIDGE to
visit the city, when, we suppose, they VIII Try
10 get up . grand Demonstration They have
but precious little TO rejoice over in the late
canvass, and we feel in too good humor to mar
the anticipated festiviiy by saying that IL does
not require much 10 make their hearts glad.
But suppose IT should turn out that Atkins
the glorious Democratic standsrd-bearer in
the Ninth District, is elected instead Of then

CHARLEsrowN, December l8.-IThe negroes,
Shields Green and John Copeland, have just
paid the forfeit Of their lives. The crowd in
the town is very great, and the execution was
witnessed by sixteen thousand persons. At
nine O'clock this morning the field was occu.
pied by the troops, and at seven minutes Of
eleven o'clock the procession made It's appear

The prisoners we're in awagon, accompanied
by the Sheriff and Jailor. They mounted the
scafold with q firm step. The prisoners had
the cap placed over their headsby the Sheriff,
and after appropriate prayer by Rev. Mr.,
North, of the Presbyterian Church, they were
launched into eternity. Before the rope was
cut Green was heard to offer up q feryent
prayer. Copeland was not heard to pray. ais'
Greene's mock was brokonE and he died
without a struggle; Copeland writhed ip
violent contortiOns for several minutes "a
The prisoners bade farewell while on the
scaffold to the ministers, Messrs. North and
Lock, expressing hope to- meet them in
heaven. The drop fell at eleven minutes past
eleven o'clock. The bodies will be placed in
the jail for interment tomorrow.
