THEN AND NOW.

We have before US copy Of the Knoxville
Register of Wednesday, July 22d, 1885. 1t
contains an account of public dinner given
at Kingston, East Tennessee, on the All of
July. Rev. THos. BRowE, Presbyterian
clergyman who has been true to the Constitu-
ton and the Union ever since, presided at the
head Of the table. We find the following
among the toasts prepared by the Committee /;
!. The day zoe eelsbrate. Let it not be for
gotten while memory lives. Four cheers.
2. Gen. Geo Washington. We were his
chosen people, but he was the friend of m4n-
kind.
A. The FEDERAL CONSTITUTION. The best
light on the subject of making Presidents.
Four cheers.
6. The Militia Of the United States The
safeguard Of the public-their deeds are the
evidence that freemen cannot be conquered.
-Four cheers.
7. The Unien Of the States. May he who at
tempts separation live long life in infamy,
and die with the curses of the people upon
him. -Four cheers.
s. The Declaration of Independence. The
brightest page in the history of man. Five
cheers.
9. The Government Of the United States I'm
rivaled on earth, may she remain so While
governments exist. -Four cheers.
H. The Patriots Of the Revelation Let US
cherish the living, and initiate the patriotism
and virtue of the dead.
From the volunteer sentiments we call tn
following:
By Mr.. George s. Rich: The Star SpangESd
Banner; tbs tri eolored Flag Of France, and
the White Flag of Poland. May they never
be unfurled but in the cause of Freedom
By the same: The highest title The proud
est exclamation, am an American citizen.
BY VIM. b. Clarke, Esq: Andres0 Jackson
Like Simeon Of old, always great on great
occasions.
By Mr.. Joseph Valentine: The Tree of
Liberty. May its top reach to Heaven, and
its branches overshadow the earth and free
and enlightened people repose under its shade.
By DR.. L. w. Jordan: The Colony Of
Liberia. May that true and noble principle in
our declaration of Independence, that all men
areborn free, be acted upon by every Au,eri-
can patriot, and may the Colonies be protected
by the same almighty arm which protected
our Colonies, and they become in fifty years
what America would be nov wit heut
the dark blot Of Slavery on her national char
acter.
Such were the sentiments uttered in East
Tennessee, July <th, 1885. The celebration
was not in Ohio, or Massachusetts, or New
York, but in this Commonwealth. Does not
the wicked character Of the present rebellion
serve to illustrate the patriotism and gres.er
wisdom of our fathersa They were no fsna-
tics-they did not talk or write like fanatics
but they did set forth words of truth ana
soberness. Is there anything in the policy
of tha Confederate leaders, in the remorseless
cruelty Of many rebel officers and soldiers,
in the desperate hate of Southern sectional
men, that ought to attract the masses from
the good old paths in which oar fathers walk
ed Have the selfconstituted guardians Of

been removed from his functions as Commits
sary extraordinary of France to Mexico, on

: PRENT1cE says: It is the exhortations and
taunts Of rebel women that have driven their
husbands, sons, brothers, into the South to fll
rebel graves. If their own hands do not smell
to them Of blood, God must IN pity have par
alyzed their olfsctory nerves.
