Military Interference at the
Kentucky Election.

1t would appear from the Lexington cor
respondent of the Commercial that there is
to be military interference at the coming cleo
ton in Kentucky. The correspondent says
that in order to enforce the State disfran.
chisng law of Confederates, and for fear
some of The County SheriGs and Election
Judges should become weak in the knees on
the occasion. General Palmer proposes to
have few gentlemen, dressed in blue clothes,
standing alongside of them to give them all
necessary backing in his disfranchising We
are informed it does not simply apply to men
who have been in arms against the Govern
ment, but also applies to "non-combatants at
home who have aided the cause of treason
We are assured that General Palmer has
prepared an order, which will be issued
before the election, in which he will take
charge of the polls to that end. The idea OF
the correspondent is, that the election is to
be so conducted that nobody will be allowed
to vote who is not Of the Radical party This
course of action be evidently approves and
indorses as far as a sense of decency will
allow him to do So There is law OF Con-
gress strictly forbidding, under severe PEN
alties, military interference in elections but
it may avail nothing, although passed by the
Radical majority in that city. We shall see

The Last Ditch OF RadlCaltsn

In the progress of events the radicals of
the republican party have been driven to their
"last ditch, and over it is seen floating their
banner, upon which is inscribed the single
idea-universal suffrage. The zealots can
find nothing else to fall back upon but upon
this point they have taken position; and there
we may expect they will remain, pestilental
agitators as they are, until the sober sense of
the country crushes them out, till they are
taught that the day in which political tri.
umphs can be secured by riding distractions
has passed, and until they secure the verdict
that political and social equality is a dogma
that is, and ever will be, repugnant to the
great majority of the Anglo Saxon race
The demonstration lately made at Boston,
when Mr.. c A Dana dIscoursed so forcbly on
the new hobby, was the first authoritative decla
ration that a NEW PARTY would be formed upon
the issue. A few have pressed the idea. for
years, but they were unable to command re-
spect outside of New England fanaticsm
They have, however, taken fresh start, and
this time secured allies. A few of the old
Republican journals support the agitators
and are clamoring for the introduction Of the
the comprehensive plank into every platform
that is constructed And Mr.. Chase, who
cannot, even as chief justice, divest himself oi
his old preiudices, has taken the field as the
apostle of the new creed At Charleston
Mobile and New Orleans, during his late tour
he placed himself squarely upon the Boston
hobby; and we observe from our exchanges
from the North he is now generally regarded
as the leader of what is destined to be the op-
position party in the next important nationa
political campaign,
AT the outset the fanatics are unquestona-
bly, in a hopeless minority The democracy
opposes them as a unit. And an additona
and overwhelming opposition will be met il
the whole power OF the administration. Upor
no one question of policy has President John
son, by act and declaration, so pontedly taken
stand; and all who know his character fol
tirmness expect him to be immovable. Witt
him, on the suffrage question, the principle
that the people the several States shall be al
lowed to settle the questions for, themselves will
undoubtedly be a fnality. And with thi
right granted they will be satisfied
1t would be an insult to common sense tC
bring forward argument against this new
scheme of the ultras, and we have alluded t
it simply for the purpose of chronicling the
fact of the organization OF a new party upor
the issue named Here in the South thu
question never will be discussed ailirmatively
and having no advocates, opponents will fnC
no one to oppose The people of Georgii
have other important and practical matters t
decide upon, and cannot look after this one
We propose, therefore, to let the radicals have
things their own way, 80 far as discussion il
concerned

Arrest OF Emerson Eth crldge.
DRESDEN, wEAkJrr CouE1Y, TrNNE,sEE,
July 7, 1875.

July 7, 1865.
To the Editor Of the Louiswn Democrat:
Sm-Great excitement was produced in
our usually quiet town to-day, by the arrest
and carrying off to Columbus, Kentucky, Of
our fellowtownsmau, Emerson Etheridge, by
Lieutenant Colonel Dobozee, and some sev.
enty-fve or one hundred negroes of the
Fourth Heavy Artillery Regiment colored
troops, stationed at Columbus, Kentucky.
The reasons for this outrage, as understood by
your correspondent, are as follows
In pursuance of a call (Which was printed
and sent over the county some ten days be.
fore the meeting, copy OF which call in.
close) one of the largest assemblages of the
citizens of Weakley and the surrounding
counties met at Dresden ON Saturday, the lst
of July, that ever assembled in thai place
Our feow.townsman, VIM. p Caldwell, open
ed the meeting, with a speech of great force
aud point Mr. Etheridge followed in
speech of some three hours in his usual bold,
fearless style, denouncing rebels, traitors and
usurpers, being particularly severe on the
latter-Parson Brownlow and his late Legis.
lature being, he as lawyer considered q case
in point The substance of both speeches
may be found in the resolutions, which were
| submitted by a committee OF the leading
Union meu OF the county, and unanimously
and enthusiastically adopted by the meeting,
a copy Of which | inclose you for publication.
In response to numerous solicitations from
citizens of Gibson County, Mr.. Ethtdge made
q speech at Trenton the following Monday
the Sd of July, to large and respectable
meeting OF that county, at which meeting pre-
cisely the same resolutions were offered and
unanimously adopted, as at this place, with
| only a change in the name of the county, and
inserting the names of the Gibson County
delegation in place of those of Weakley County
in Brownow's Legislature. Mr. Etheridge's
speech was an earnest appeal to the people
to respect and act up to the requirements Of
| the Federal and State Constitution. 1t was
| in fact, Mr.. Editor, substantially the same as
the speeches he made in this district in the
winter and spring OF 1861, and for which he
had to leave his home and stay away for
years to avoid being arrested by the rebels
Mr.. II. was arrested Just as he was starting TO
Paris, at which place he was to have made
speech to the citizens of Henry County to-
morrow.
There is to be an election for N embers of
Congress on the Sd of August next, under an
act OF Brownlow's Legislature. Mr.. Ethe-
ridge being almost the unanimous choice of
the people of the district, it will require no
great penetration to see good reason why
some persons would be rejoiced at his arrest
and detention until after the election There
is great feeling here on this subject, Mr.. Edi-
tor. We are 10th to believe our country is
under the control of men who will allow such
acts perpetrated. ClVlS.

Extraordinary FOrtItude of g
Child

Last Monday morning, George Smith, q boy
only seven years old, residing at Pleasant
vile, New York, told his parents If they in
sisted upon sending him TO school, that be
would throw himself on the Harlem Railroad
track which was near his fathers land, and
receive such injuries as would compel them
TO keep him at hume. They thought moth
lug of the threat and ordered him to school
forthwith, supposing he had gone, until they
learned he had executed his menace.
When the 10 o'clock up mail train passed
the village, George laid his left arm upon
the track, and the cars passed over it, sever.
ing nearly the whole of the hand from the
limb. The engineer perceiyng him then for
the first time, stopped the train, when the
child ran off, and was found with his shattered
arm behind his back, sitting on a fence, whist
ling Yankee Doodle, and pretending moth
ing had happened. Before he could be taken
home George tainted from pain and loss OF
blood; but when restored and a surgeon sum
moned, he refused to take any anesthetic a.
gent, but told the medical gentleman to cut
away. The scalpel was used on the msngled
limb, but the little fellow never whimpered
or complained,
Not nerve trembed during the operation,
which must have been very painful indeed
the boy did not speak unul it was over, when
he remarked with great satisfaction, and with
an air OF triumph Well, I'm glad did it
| can be seut school for while yhow
Tue chlid shows wonderful coolness, saying he
first put hls right arm on the track, out re-
hecung that when be grew up be would not
be able to write Well with the loss OF that
limb, he substituted bis left. His parents are
much distressed at the occurrence, and ap-
prehend, it he is sent to school again, he will
destroy himself The boys conduct is almost
inexplicable. Paper.
