and though Mr. Douglas may hold up the thin

Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1853-1862, 1860-09-25
Hon. W. H. sneed,r Letter.

Editors Union and american: $500
The Banner is greatly mistaken with reference to
Hon. W. H. SSEED, in intimating any sort of disap-
pointment towards his party and that he had no
influence at hsme. Neither is true. Col. ,SSEED
never, but the time offered his services to his
party, and then he secured his nomination for Con-
gress, and beat his competitor by large majority
If anything occurred, during his time, to render
him odious or unacceptable to his people, never
heard it intimated by any living man. On the con-
trary, his course universally approved, and had
he been willing, could have been again nominated
and elected the second term. It'll though known to
this entire community that after ne returned from
Congress, he positively declined second nomination,
and so announced through the press. Why then
intimate that his recent change is attributable to
being so,ued towards his party because they would
not take him up again, candidate for Congress
As to his having no influence at home is certainly
mistake. From lohOm, or from what source the
Banner has obtained its information in this particu-
lar, do not know. Certainly some one has played
off hoar upon the editor, and am astonished at
his gullibility. But stop! The gentleman may have
thought that this was the best way to destroy the
effect of his letter. This is it, e1actly.
No man stands higher in this community than
does Col. SNEED. He is known and recognised as a
heightened gentleman, in all the relations of life,
and as a man of very high order of talents. In
deed his position lawyer will rank with that of
the ablest lawyers of Tennessee.
1t is not true, therefore, that he has no influence
at home; and the best proof that 1 can give the
Banner is thatIoe Democracy do not beere his reck
less assertion, is that the BRECKENRIDGE and LANE
club of this city, intend to make Col SNEEDs letter.
campaign document not for this latitude, but TO be
circulated in the county Of Rnor, where Col. SNEED
has.lived for years. Ion.

Another German Paper fer Brecekinrldge


The Richnonder Anzieger, the only daily paper in
Richmond Virginia, published in the German Ian
guage, hoisted the BRECKENRIDGE and LANE flag on
Thursday morning last
The Enquirer says "The Arzsiger publishes the
following manly avowal of its preference for the
candidates Of the National Democracy:
'Let us look at the present condition of parties in
our State We find the SO called Union men who
have written BELL and Everett" their ticket
very good people perhaps, but they can never be
supported by naturazed citizens, since they have
been nominated by aparty which formerly bore the
name Of Know Nothing and which now finds itmore
prudent under present circumstances to substi-
tute Its old and much despised name with one more
pleasing and better sounding Closely considered
however, we find this party composed of the same
people who deprived US of equal political rights in
1854 and 49, and who attempted TO dictate us how
we should think and act With them we can have
nothing to do.
"A second party which rallies under the banner
of Douglas and johnson, would find favor with us
if we lived in Northern State. But here in Viz
ginia Douglas prospect for carrying the State is
very SMALL that it is impossible for to decrre for
him. Should we do so, it would only be working
indirectly for the Know Nothing tckets-hence
every vote cast for Douglas is loss to the National
Democracy of the State and a gain to the Know
Nothings, to whom such a sudden policy might en-
sure an easy victory.
"The third party in our State is that which has
chosen Breckenridge and Lane for their standard
bearers and to this we give our support. In its
ranks we find Henry A. Wise, the defender of our
rights and liberties, the declared enemy of Know
