The voice of jackson county

A large and enthusiastic meeting of the
citizens of Jackson county irrespective of
party, was held in GainsbOro on the 4th inst,
aud Circuit Court being in session, the meet
ing was represented by voters from all parts
of the county.
On motion of Maj. r. p. Brooks, Joshua
Halle was called to the chair. After explain
ing the object of the meeting to be for jack
son to express her voice in, and views of the
present Gubernatroial canvass, the chair
appointed r. p. Brooks, j. p. Murray, Sam
G.. Slaughter, Peter G. Cox and L. G. Hall
fore the meeting, Whereupon the following
resolutions were presented by ]. p. Murray
on behalf of the Committee, and were unan-
imously adopted:
Resotued, That the administration of His
Excellency, Isham G. Harris, as Governor of
Tennessee, meets our unqualified approba-
ton, that he is our choice for Governor at the
ensuing August election, and that we, with
out distinction of party, pledge him our
united support, and that we deem it unneces-
sary for him to canvass this portion of the
State as the united voice of the people is
for his reelection.
RESOLVED, That we earnestly request the
Hon. William H. Polk to withdraw from the
canvass for Governor, as we do not desire
the harmony of the people disturbed by
canvass. That we make this appeal TO the
Hon. William II. Polk with the kindest feel
ings for him and his friends who desire to
bring him before the public.
Resolced, That the proceedings of this
meeting be published in the Republican
Banner, Nashville Patriot and Union and
American.
On motion the meeting adjourned sine die.

There is something most singularly unpa-
triOtic in the course of those who would seek
to divide the councils of the people and par
allie their will by attempting to turn the
election of a GOVERNOR, with his present pa
tronage, into a particular channel, which
must run into their own party or their purse.
1t Is to be hoped that there are but few Of
this class.-BdnneT.
Our neighbor seems to understand his own
position precisely. He has daguerreotyped it
to the life. Who is seeking to turn the cleo
ton of Governor, with all his patronage into
a particular channel, but the Bdnner and the
few who are following it in the support of
Polk? Into what party and what purses is
the Polk movement expected to run the pat
rOnage of the State? These are considera-
tiOns which We regard as beneath the digni-
ty of the canvass, but we presume the Ban
ner regards them as legitimate.

The Man for the Times.

We have at this issue of our paper, as will
be seen, placed the name of IsHAN G. HARRIS
at our mast head for Governor. We do this
knowing that il no less reflects the will of the
people OF Bedford, than it meets with our ill.,
dividual approbalion.
True, we have differed heretofore with
Gov. Harris in politics, but these differences
have ceased to exist owing to the critical con-
dtion of our country. His manly and bold
resistance to the usurping power OF an abolition
government-in refusing to obey the call of
Lincoln for volunteers-and his firm and un-
swerving devotion 10 the South and her in
terests, are. together with experience and
capacity to ably represent US in the present
emergency, some OF the reasons why We are
for him.
We call upon old Bedford to come out
again az one man, aud by their votes show
to the world that gallant and chivalrous
Tennessee is not Only proud of her chief
executive. but willing to endorse bis acts
which will give glory 10 her and Immortality
to him.-ShestyviN ExpositOr.

On Wednesday, the Banner, speaking OF
Gov. HARRIS, said he

On Wednesday, the Banner, speaking OF
Gov. HARRIS, said he
" Has used the immense patronage of his
office mainly to reward the men who have
been his partisan adherents, dropping in now
and then a former opponent for appearance s
sake"
Gov. Harris has made two canvasses of the
State as the candidate of the democratic par
ty for Governor. He has not since 1859 been
before the people as a candidate for any posi-
ton, by which he could gain partisan adher-
eatsn-consequently he had no partisan adj
bergnts,' except those which belonged to the
democratic party. The contest in February
between the Secessionists and Union men
was of no more concern to Gov. HARRIS than
TO any private citizen in the State, and he
had no more and no less to do with it. He
certainly made no partisan adherents" in
that contest.
A gentleman of this city, wishing to ascer-
tain the facts, made an investigation relative
to the political character of the appointments
made by Gov. HARRIS, and the result OF which
was published in the PATRIOT of the 10th. 1t
established the fact that out of l26 appoint
ments, siuy:fUe were opposition, taking the last
Presidential election as the basis, and SIXTY
one BIPARTISAN adberents" of the Governor, if
it be proper to use the term. The BMneT
cannot get over this cOnfounding fact, so it
endeavors to go around it, by seeking to
make the contest in February last the STAN
dard of comparison Well, we deny the cor
rectness of its statement, allowing it the ben
eft of its own selected standard, and We
challenge it to publish the list of appoint
ments. giving the position of each appOintee
last February. If you believe your state
ment accurate, set to work and prove it.
