We join the Avalanche in the opinion that there is
no contest in the State which sattracingso much
terest and attention as that between Messrs Atkins
and ErHRIDGE in the Ninth Congressional District
Two years ago the former beat the latter by ma
jority of little mere tnan one hundred aud fifty
votes Charinged and maddened by his defeat, Mr.
ETHRDGEis said 10 have his intention, at
once, of again being candidate at this time, and
from that day to the commencement Of the canvass,
employed himself in making ready for the battle in
which he is now engaged We do not think, how
ever, that, with all his preparation, be can defeat
his young and gallant competitor. Two years OF
service in COngress-serVioe alike honorable to him
self and useful to the cOuntry-has gained for him
reputation for ability and craftsmanship which he
could not have possessed before, and given him
place in the confidence of the people that honest
and faithful performance of duty can alone secure
to the candidate for public favor. He therefore,
stands upon a much higher vantage ground in this
than he did in his last canvass But he cannot win
the battle singlehanded and alone. He needs and
must have the aid and hearty cooperation of his
friends, for Mr. ETHRDeE will have that of his
everywhere. There must be no luke Warmness, no
tagging behind in the Democratic ranks Every
man must be at his post willing, ready and deter
mined to do his whole duty. There must be no fra
ding and no swapping Of votes, but ecch Democrat
must go to thepOlls and deposit his vote for ATKINS
If this policy and this advice is adopted and adher
ed to, there be doubt Of the result-our can
diats will be most triumphantly reelected A diff
ferent courses feeling of Oyer-cOEfdence in our
own strength, of contempt for that of the enemy
will have different results result as dsgraoeful
to the Democracy of Tennessee, as it would be un-
just to one of their truest, most worthy AID most
gallant young champions.

LOUIS NAPoLEoNs MILITARY EDUCATIoN.-The
New York JouTnaIof Commerce referring to the fact
that when Louis Napoleon resided in Switzerland,
he studied Military tactics under Gen. Defour, a
soldier and commander of Q nigh ORDER says that
even those who called Louis Napoleon before 184S,
crack Drained fool, always admitted that his
knowledge Of some branches Of military science
was Of no mean standard. In the few months that
he was in this country, he visited West Point, and
called the attention Of our officers to improvements
which they might make in artillery. It is also ceT-
tain that the book which exhibited the greatest ab
ity of all his snte-imperial works, was g volume
on artillery. Whether Louis Napoleon will success
fully put in practice his military knowledge, is an
other question.

the Opposition, in the excitement of the moment
leaped ten feet from the ground, and came down
beautifully in the peW-dug eulvert in the Pirqiniaa

moments afterwards he running breathless
from the telegraph office with the declaration
that Page county had given Goggn 1900 ma

of course was received with tremendous shouting
from the crowd present. At the same time the news
also came that TiideA county had gone for Goggin
by tremendous majority, while overwhelming gains
had been made in Seabury. Booker, Lyme, Button
and LanghoIns counties. This settled the hash Of
"Honest john" and Governor Goggin was on the
lips Of every member Of the Opposition. They
swore st once that ''BOh Glass had to give up the
Post Office, and Tip jennings, Bill Fowler & Co. had
to walk the plank, and surrender their inspector
ships to others" Several petitions of applicants
for these ofices we're already written when little

Mr.. Dallas.
The HerGlds Washington despatch of Saturday
says dispatches have been received at the State
Department, brought by the Aasia, from our Minis
tiers at Tendon, France and Spain. Mr. Dallas states
that great activity prevails in England throughout
ell the various departments, and werl:ke prepare
tions of immense magnitude are being prosecuted
with vigCr and urgency. Everything that can float
is undergoing repair and will be in readiness for
tive service. Unparalleled activity prevails in all
British dock yards. 1t is the opinion Of leading
statesmen, should war continue England will not
long remain neutral. She fears France, and looks
uron its Emperor with jealous eyes. Nj Mason says
the Emperor of France has stronger hold on the
affections Of the people of France than before
and they eVinee determination to stand b. him at
all hazards and prosecute the war to the bitter
end. s5.
Mr.. Preston writing from Madrid states that con-
siderable feeling manifested at Madrid growing
cut of the belligerent aspect Of affairs throughout
Europe The sympathies of the Spanish people
we're with Sardinia, and the Empsror's (Napoeon's)
course meets the hearty approval of the people Of
Spain.

1t is useful for the Opposition in referring to the
election in Virginia. to compare the vote at the late
election with that for President in 1885, because the
Democratic majority was Their much larger than on
any other OCCASION and the present result eOmpar-
ed with that election, shows larger KnoW-NOthing
gain than if the vote was compared with any other
election. There was, however, no serious contest
in Virginia in the last Presidential election, as is
shown by the fact that while Mr.. Buehahan's vote
was only six thousand larger than that for Gov.
Wise, the vote for Fillmore was thirteen thousand
less than that for FIournoy No fair comparison can
be made of the present vote, except with preceding
votes for Governor. We compile the following fig
