Municipal Nominations.

We place at the head of our columns the
nominees OF the Republcansand Union men
of the city, for Mayor and Municipal Judge.
Capt JACOB MCCLELLAN. whose nomination
for Mayor by the convention of ward dele
gates was made perfectly unanimous, is one of
our old and tried citizens, and for two years
past in the Legislature he has proved to be
faithful public servant, ever watchful of the
material interests of his constituents. Last
year he was run for Mayor on the Citizens
ticket, and was supported by the Democrats,
Constitutional Union men, and all others out
side of the strict lines of the Republican party,
and the vote polled for him was tlattering
testimonial of the confidence reposed in him
bya large portion of his fellow citizens. Since
that time his uniform and unconditional 10y
atty, his warm and generous support of the
Administration in its efforts to suppress rebel
lion, and his unfinching integrity have com
mended him to Republicans as well as to his
former friends, and they now propose cordially
to join hands with all loyal men in the city to
elevate him to position for which bis excel
lent business qualities and his strict integrity
eminently fit him.
BENJAMIN KINGsBuRY, Jr, Esq, nominat-
ed for Judge of the Municipal Court, needs no
word of eulogy from our pen. In all respects
we look upon his nomination as one "emi-
nently fit to be mader He will hold the
scale of justice with an impartial hand, and
never win the ermine be dishonored by him.
We shall be greatly surprised if both the
nominations made are not ratified at the polls
by overwhelming majorities.
Hon. VIM. w. Thomas, who, for two years
past, has conducted the administration of our
city affairs with signal ability, declined to be
candidate for denomination as Mayor

Misapprehension Corrected.

Elder BURNHAM, of the Second Advent
remark recently made by him which was re-
ferred to by a correspondent OF the Press, and
which was thought to be exceedingly disoyal
Below we publish brief note from his pen,
and We do SO cheerfully, as we would do no
man injustice, and as we would purge our ci-
ty as much as possible of all dsIoyal utteran-
ces. Mr.. b. says the Second Adventists regard
very much as the Friends do = as con-
trary to the spirit of the gospel, and that it
was in no political but in purely moral sense,
that he intended his remarks should be I'M
derstood. Here is his note:
To the Editor Of the Press:
Dear ST:-I was panied to read an article
in your last Fridays issue, in which seem TO
be represented as taking very disloyal posi-
ton in the Second Advent Hall, the Sunday
previous. do not complain of any one con-
cerned in The matter, but wish simply TO say,
that there is grave misapprehension in the
case. The facts are these:
Some of US do not believe that it would be
right for US to 90 TO war. We may be in err
ror, but so we do sincerely believe On the
occasion referred to. was simply illustrating
hiiat We thiih u oul NhIlstlstll uuty- by tne
words | used meant just this, and no more
viz;
We must not fight. But we must not rebel.
We will submit TO the Government. We will
pay tribute. We will pay our fine. We will
90 patiently to prison, or to death il we must
We viii do all we can, but we connot fight.
Not that we love our country less, but we must
love jesus more
God bless our nation and save us.

The conclusion that Great Britain is respon-

covered in the British courts by an action at

ground of valid claim, TO be enforced by

NEW YORK, March 50.
The Tribune's special dispatch from Muir
freesboro 2Sih, says it is certain that no rebel
infantry has passed either flank of this army
in Kentucky, therefore the Kentucky panic is
baseess
We have trustworthy information that the
rebels are concentrating exclusively in this
front to resist Rosecrans advance, not to at
tack him. They are now not less than 60,00O
strong, and fortified at Tullahoma, Stevenson
and Bridgeport. There are no troops at Chat
tanooga. No infantry has appeared at Knox
