The Tennessee Dead.

1t is probable that Tennessee is more
largely represented than any other
State, Georgia excepted, in the num-
Der of her sons, who filled soldiers
graves in the vicinity of this city. They
gave up life far from home and friends.
They were hurriedly and rudely bur
ried. Soon every memorial that now
distinguishes their resting places, will
be ohliterated unless prompt measures
are taken to arrest the deiacing work
Of time. There are many Tennessee
ans in our midst, who ought to esteem
it an honorable, as well as patriotic
duty, to engage in this work. There
Is no time to be lost. Representatives
from other States are acting in the mat
ter. not only in Atlanta. but on other
battle fields. Shall Tennesseeans be
less observant Of the claims of the he.
.Oic dead than Others?
We hope some N will take the in
itiative in the labor. gathering into one
common enclosure. the remains OF ali
the Tennessee dead, and marking the
spot by some suitable memJrial-N

to see more Than Il do2cn newspapers
OF tie South condcmning them. We
like The tone Of tho following remarks
which we take from the Nashville
Union end Amcricon
There are some things, says a con
temporary, that it will disgrace us to
forget. We moy forget, in the course
of the next century, the harm done r.
Try the armcd men who risked their
lives in their assaults upon us-or, ii
we cannot forget, We may forgive. But
tie waaton outrages wreaked upon us
by cowardly noN-combatants, who
chose timew hen our misfortuncs gave
thrlu M impunity, that only dastards
could take advantage of to wound us
in Uur most sensitive parts, are beyond
all scope of the most enlarged forgive
mes, or iorgcttnlness. These miscra-
bic rullians, who dared not meet a man
in combat anywhere, though four years
Of strife had offered abundant opportu-
nifty for valor, even skunk from the in
dignation OF manhood, though bound
and gagged, and meanly vented their
spite on our ladies'. Who does not rec
ollcct the disgusting pictures of"South-
crn Civilization in Mrper's Weekly
during the war, one of which we rec
ollect particularly, for we commented
upon itat the time,) in which the ladies
ofMe South werepiciured THE rash tubs,
up to TIER eNows in Tie suds, miM negro

This was evidently wished for by Har-
per's Weekly as the issue of the war
for us to be made slaves, and our slaves
our masters. And this is a sample of
the publications. that the people Of the
South are asked to again p%atronize and
introduce into their homes"
Surely no IN who respects magma
nimity and dcccncy in a foe; and most
assuredly no Southern lady or gentle

cations made by the IIarpers during
the late war, will ever subscribe for any
publication of theirs again. We have
