THE COUNTRY FEELING IN TEN
NESSEE.

As an indication Of the direction in which
the public sentiment is drifting in this State,
we present the following from the Fayette-
vile Ners, of Saturday, the occasion which
drew the people together being Circuit Court
day for Lincoln county:
"Col. A. S. CoLYAE being in town last
Monday, complied with the solicitations Of
large number Of the citizens Of the county,
and delivered a short address upon the po-
litical condition of the country. We do not
remember having heard a more forcible and
telling speech in long time. The Colonel
in his happy style, complimented the people
Of Lincoln county for their universally ac-
knowedged loyalty and good behavior since
the close Of the war, and counseled them to
continue their wise course-to remain loyal
TO, and sustain the Government. He de-
nounced the present State Government as
the most absolute despotism that ever ex-
listed upon the earth, and advised the peo-
pie what course they should pursue to re-
.ieve themselves of it. He urged upon the
people the very great importance of meet
ing in convention all over the State and adj
vising together, calmly summing up their
grievances, and laying them before the
powers that be, demonstrating, and continu-
ing TO demonstrate until some relief may be
had.
The Radicals of Tennessee, and especially
Of this county, were handled by the Colonel
without gloves; and his scathing remarks
we're received by the immense audience with
rounds Of deafening applause He told them
plainly that no Tenneesean could be a Radi-
cal and at the same time a gentleman, and
that every ID Of them had his eye upon
somebody else's land.
The RAIDS. writhed and fumed under the
telling blows he administered; and we I'M
derstand that a caucus at night among them
was the result Let the CALLED jades
vince" but we tell them this is only a fore
taste Of what will come hereafter.
He alluded in proper terms TO, and de-
nounced with proper severity, the manner
in which the people Of this Judicial Circuit
bad been treated with reference to the lp-
pointment Of a Judge.
Col. CoLYAR's speech, which was an elo-
quent effort Of a powerful orator. was fol-
lowed by a few remarks from our Senator,
Col. CARDIGAN, who was loudly called for.
He desired TO excuse himself from attempt
ing TO make a speech after the eloquent one
which had Just been delivered, and only as
sured his constituents that he would stand
unAinchingly TO the course he had marked
out, and that he would guard their interests
to the best Of his ability.
The remarks Of both gentlemen we're well
received, and had a good effect upon the
people, and we hope they may often have
the benefit of such wise counsel.
