Address Of NOn.Secesling Dele
gates from Tennessee TO ttse
People of that state.

We, the undersigned, portion Of
your delegates to the national conven-
ton which recently assembled at Charles
ton, desire to make to you a plain, un-
vanished statement of facts in relation
to our own action, and that of the rest
of the delegation, both at Charleston
and at the adjourned convention at Bal
timore. Our statement shall be as brief
as the limits of the subject will allow.
The first difference between the major
ity Of the delegation and the minority,
To which we belong, arose at Charleston
upon the undue assumption of power by
the majority to elect delegates TO fill the
vacancies in the second and seventh Con-
gressonal districts, occurring in conse-
quence of the absence Of the regularly
appointed delegates aud the alternates
for both of those districts. Notwith-
standing the protest of several of the
delegation, Maj. Lyon was elected to fill
the vacancy in the second district, and
Mr. w. G. Whithorne, though a non
resident, was elected to fill the vacancy
in the seventh district-Mr. Whithorne
himself not believing that the delegation
had the right to exercise the power
TIE same pO,cr ,cas again exercised at Bai-
timore ,chea the contention re-aSSembled az
that city, and secen UdcaRcies tcere then and
there thus PILED. Six of the delegates
thus elected seeded from the regular
convention, aud went into the irregular
and unauthorized one, to whose action
we will refer by and by.
We now proceed to present the action
of the convention, especially the votes
upon the several platforms offered in the
separate reports, and herewith append
all three of them in their order:
Here follow the several reports from
the committee on platforms all of which
have been published. -.
The question wassfirst taken by States
upon the foregoing amendment by Mr..
Butler, and the same was rejected by the
following vote Ayes los, nays l9S.
In the cote upon ]Lr. BmL1's report,
Tennessee roted | yeas, nay.
The States were then called upon a
motion to adopt the minority resolutions,
and they were adopted by l65 yeas to
1873 nays.
Upon these minority resolutions the
State OF Tennessee voted ! yea, ] nays.
a call having been previously made
for a. division of the question, vote was
then taken upon the first resolution OF
the minority report, which resulted 237
ayes, 65 nays. On this question the
Tennessee delegation voted l04 ayes
nay,-Gen. j. ID. G. Atkins, one of the
delegates from the State at large, and
ent tied to vote, declining to record his
vote.
A motion to lay the rest Of the reso.
lutions upon the table was lost by vote
of g ayes, 1SS nays.
And so the residue of the minority re
solutions were then passed without divis
ion.
Upon the adoption Of the minority re
port in this perfectly fair and Legitimate
manner by the national democratic con
vention, l.. =. Walker, Chairman of the
Alabama delegation, came forward ant
presented paper, in which it was stated
that, the contingency haven arisen con
templated by the State convention o.

InsurrcctiOms ia tl,is Country.

The first insurrection in this country
was an alcoholic affair, having been borught
about in consequence of an act Of Con-
gress which passed on the Sd of March,
1901, imposing a duty on spirituous
liquors distilled in the United States
The opposition to this law, both in and
out of Congress, from the time it was
first introduced was fierce and bitter, it
having been called, by way of derision,
an ereise-a British term which was,thep
ea:s~s ~ 0". p~erle "-ai an~.4"
had been in the days of the revolutionary
struggle. The insurrectionary feeling
was so widely diffused, that the Legisla-
lures Of Pennsylvania, Maryland, yir-
ginia, and North Carolina, nnited SOL
emn declarations OF resistance. This
resulted in that renowned Whiskey
Rebellion" in which number of men
lost their lives.
The second was the Northampton In.
surrrection, which grew out of deter
mined opposition Of the people in North
anpton, Montgomery, and Bucks counties,
in Pennsylvania, to an act Of Congress
passed July 0, l79s, providing for regis
tering the number and measurment of
the windows in all the houses, not as was
supposed for the purpose Of taxing tho
windows, but of forming an estimate of
the value of house thereby. la this
instruction there was no lives lost. 1t
was only resisting the execution OF
Government process and resulted in the
arrest Of John Fries for treason
The third was scrvilc insurrcction.
In the month of August, number of in
sureent slaves, under the leadership Of
the notorious Nat Turner, in Southamp-
ton county, Virginia, turned out in open
rebellion to the laws of tho land, and
committed the most horrid atrocities
murdered in cold blood whole families,
father, mother, daughters, sons, school
children, and even sucking babes. This
Internal work OF destruction terminated
in the killing of every one of the insur-
gcnts except the nglcader, who fed to
the Dismal Swamp.
The fourth occurred in 1882. In July
Of that year, Congress passed revenue
law--containig provisions for protection
to American manufacturcs-which to tho
South was exceedingly distastcful. South
Carolina took the lead in the notification
movement. Tho citizens of that State
assembled in Convention, at Columbia,
declared the tariff laws to be unconstitu-
tional; consequently null aud void. All
that the Convention did was ratified by
tho Legislature, in short timc there
after which body then passed an act re.
quiring every officer of the State, civil
or military, solemnly TO swear that he
would "well and truly obey, execute aud
enforce, the ordinance TO nullify certain
acts of the Congress Of the United
States" TIE merit i,rorided for armed re-
sistanc6 TO tho ls,cs Of Congress. President

HERE'S TO THEE, OLD FRIEND.
by THOMAS MOORE.

BY THOMAS MOOl,Es
Long years have passed, old friend, since We
First met in life's young day;
And friends long loved by thee and me,
Since then have dropped away;
But enough remain to cheer us on,
And sweeten, when thus we're met,
The glass we fill to the many gone,
And the few who're left us yet.
Our locks, old friend, now thinly grow,
And some hang white and chill;
While some, like flowers mid autumn snow,
Retain youths color still.
So in our hearts, though one by one,
Youths sunny hopes have set,
Thank heaven not all their life is gone,
We've some to cheer us yet
Then here's to thee, old friend, and long
May thou and / thus meet,
To brighten still with wine and song
This short life ere il neet,
And still, as death comes stealing on;
Let's never, old friend, forget,
Fen while we sigh Ger blessings gonc,
How many arc left us yet.
