REGISTRATION.

Every day brings additional evidence that
it is the purpose Of the reigning Radi-
cal oligarchy, by themselves and through
thsir satraps TIE Commissioners Of Regis-
tration TO silence the voice of the masses,
and retain the political power Of the State in
the hands Of few of the Radical elect
The most disreputable and dastardly means
that have been used to accomplish this pur-
pose, is the destruction or concealment of
the poll books Of 1864 and 1865. 1t has
been ascertained that in many Of the coun-
ties those books have been taken and carried
away. We are informed that member Of
the Legislature from Wilson county OBJ
tanned possession Of those Of that county, and
they turned up so mutilated as to be
valueleSs. Only last week, those Of Lin
coin county were stolen from the possession
Of their proper custodian, and are yet con-
cealed OF totally destroyed.
These facts are well calculated 10 arouse
the attention Of the people, and to call
forth, not only the severest rebuke but the
prompt action Of legal voters in the asser-
ton Of their rights as citizens and voters.
No man who is entitled under the law to a
certificate should fail to demand it. II the
record evidence is lost, the next best evil
dence, which is verbal proof Of the record
is admissible. The people should not allow
themselves to be deprived Of this great
right by the base and dishonest Vaccinations
Of the common enemy of popular liberty.
We cannot urge too zealously our Conserva-
tive friends the importance Of at once APP
plying for and obtaining their certificates
However unconstitutional the law may be,
or whatever the future decision Of the |
courts may be in regard TO its validity, It is |
the present imperative duty Of all voters |
who come within its provisions 10 qualify |
by getting certificates. II thoy are refused |
le, them institute suits against the Commits
sioncrs against the judges Of elections and
receivers Of votes, and all Others who under
take to enslave the people under the forms
Of law, through the fundamentally Of tenn.
porary power.

CONFINEMENT.

Correspondence Of the Union and Ameriean.l
see frequent communications in your
weekly issue from the different counties in
reference to the growing crops, a subject
which we like to see written about, and as a
subscriber and reader Of your excellent pa
per, concluded to give few items from
our hitherto silent county. Everything is
very quiet and orderly, every man, woman
and baby, is doing his or her level best to
try and make something to eat and to wear
The subject Of agriculture is the topic Of the
day, and what better subject could claim our
attention? one in which we all are directly
or indirectly interested. If the earth is not
titled, or refuses to bring forth her wonted
supplies, the whole machinery is ciogged,
all feel the shock It all comes from the
ground. What a delightful theme agricul-
ture is TO think Of and dwell upon. Though
we are estOpped from taking any part in our
own State or General Government affairs,
and lave no voice in these things Tor at least
a majority of us here and hereabouts are
thus debarred) we, as tillers of the soil, can
meet together and exchange views in refer
ence TO cur farming interests and give each
other pleasant greetings. Here we can meet
on one common platform. Here under our
own vines and fig trees we can gather togeth-
er at our domicils and talk about our crops,
tell how this piece of wheat was sowed and
Of what variety it may be-when this Irish
potato patch was planted and how cuItivat-
ed, and so on through all the routine.
Truly, it is delightfully."- pleasant to be one
of this group at the farm house, under the
shade Of trees planted by our own hands
here TO sit and eat delicious fruit from the
surrounding trees. By and by noon arrives,
and to cap the climax, the long table is vel
under one of the magnificent shade trees.
Soon dinner is announced, then the welcome
invitation comes, sit down to dinner; and
sure enougha dinner it is. The table is set in
good style, groaning under the weight of its
wholesome and well prepared edibles all
fresh from the surrounding fields and gar
den, the fruit Of our own labor. Is it not
pleasant to essay such feast? Well might
SUMNER or STEVENS envy us our happi-
ness. While they are growing grey study
ing and taxing their brains how to oppress
and degrade US, we are pursuing the "eyen
tenor Of our way" cultivating our farms and
enjoying the blessing and comforts of their
products. The wheat crop is about one-half
Of good crop in yield, the quality is ex-
cellent; the Oat crop is very good. Vege-
tables of all kinds good. We have been in
expectancy of fine crops Of corn until re-
cently-are now having a severe drought.
How long it will continue remains to be
seen; if we do not get rain soon this valuable
cereal will be quite short" Finally, as the
preacher says, we have the tallest oats, six
feet eight inches high; the heaviest wheat,
the whitest biscuit of any other county in
Middle Tennessee. Come up, Mr.. Editor,
and take little recreation, and we will de-
monstrate these facts to You.

CONFLICT OF CIVIL AND MILITARY
AUTHORITY AT MEMPHIS.

The Memphis correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Commercial thus describes the recent
occurrence at Memphis in which one Gen.
CLARY figured disreputably:
The community has been considerably ex-
ercised in regard to the rascally conduct of
Brevet Brigadier General r. +. CLARY, who
left this city protected by guard from Gen
eral SLOVENIAN. The circumstances are
these:
Mr.. DUvALL, a man of unquestiOnable
loyalty, who resided in Philadelphia during
the war, demanded of General CLARY the
possession of his (DUvALL's) house, which
CLARY refused, but allowed DUvALL's chill
dren the possession of two rooms; but on the
Both of June, General CLARY ordered his
guards to put the children and goods in the
street. 1t was done, the General still re-
fusing to leave. DUvALL sued out a writ of
attachment against him. The Sheriff, in at
tempting to execute it, was resisted by Gen
eral CLARY with armed meE. The Sheriff
made a return accordingly. The Court or
dered him to arrest General CLARY for con-
tempt in disobedience and not respecting the
process of the court The Deputy Sheriff
accordingly took the General prisoner. He
was placed under bonds of $1,000.
This process was decided void for inform
ality, and the Judge, on a new writ, ordered
another arrest. The Deputy Sheriff. on Sat
urday, called on the General to execute the
writ. The latter asked him to wait a mo-
ment till he called his orderly, and to the
discontinue of the Sheriff a squad of arm
ed soldiers appeared in the room. The Gen
eral ordered them to put the Sheriff off the
lot or kill him. The Deputy did not like
the offensive motion of the bayOnets and
left. On his making a return, the court or
dered him to summon a sufficient posse and
the Metropolitan Police, if necessary, to
overcome all resistance. The Deputy, ac-
companied by several Metropoitans, pro-
ceeded at once to the Marble City, on which
boatthe General had engaged passage. There
was considerable excitement on the levee,
and everybody seemed anxious to join the
hunt for him. They searched the boat, and
not finding him, put the Captain under bonds
not to take him. The General, however,
had tanked them and got into the Navy
yard, and signaled the Bart Able to touch
there. The Deputy hastened to General
SToNEMAN's Adjutant General to get an or
der for military assistance While they
were detained there, General CLARY was es-
corted on board the Able by company of
regulars, and four armed men accompanied
him to Cairo to prevent his arrest.

JACKSON COUNTY.

At a meeting Of portion Of the citizens

the term of the Circuit Court, on motion j.
I. QUARLEs, ESD was called TO she Chair,
and II. DENTON appointed Secretary.
The object Of the meeting was explained
in a few remarks by the Hon. A. J. MARTIN,
whereuron the following gentlemen were

THE SOUTHERN RADICAL CONVEN-
TTON.

For the purpose of displaying our desire
to give our readers information upon all sub
iects likely to affect their interests, We pub
lished a few mornings ago, a call for a
Southern Radical Convention to be held in
Philadelphia, in September The New York
Ners thus speaks of the persons who signed
that call
Three Of them profess to be citizens of
Texas Not one of them is a resident of
that State. Governor" HAMILTON left It
some time age, declaring that he never ex-
pected TO reside there again, and he is now
in Washington. GEORGE W. PAsCHALL,
whose suspected treason to the Confederacy
was magnanimOusly overlooked by its Gov
eminent during all the war, is now living in
Washington and praeticing law there. LO-
RENO SHERWOOD resides in the City of
Brooklyn, and has a law Office in this city.
These are the Texans.
Two Georgians sign the call, g. w. ASH
BURN and HENRY G. COLE. Neither of
them is known TO a hundred men outside of
his county. They are both Northern men
by birth and education. One of them is the
correspondent of Boston paper, and as such
II lAlC AldliStiallb StdiAuClCi VI lilV pcoplG
among whom he lives. The other was sus-
pected of reasonable correspondence with
Gen. SHERMAN, and is now resenting the
Imprisonment to which he was, OF that ac-
count subjected.
Eight sign it as citizens of Virginia. Ex-
cept UNDERWOOD, whose infamy has made
him notorious these men are all utterly in
significant and unknown. One of them,
LEWIS MCKENZIE, is a rather respectable
person, but was the consistent enemy of his
native State during all the war. Another,
the Reverend j. w. HUNNICUTT, is a crack
Drained, Anticipated sort of fellow, whom
every one laughs at, South CarOlinian by
birth, loyal Unionist" from want Of sense.
The remaining six are all natives of the
North
The signers from Alabama are, with the
exception of Mr. GEORGE REESE, so obscure,
and unknown, that we venture to say that
they have never been heard of ten miles from
their homes. We are somewhat surprised
that Mr.. REESE appended his name to the
call, if, indeed, il was placed there by his au-
thority. The four MissOurians who sign the
paper, are part of the scum that was thrown
to the surface of the filthy political pool of
that State, by the terrible agitatiOns of the
war. If there is man in all the land who
can tell us anything about the two North
CarOlinians whose names grace the call, we
shall be obliged to him for the information.
