favor of removing All troops from East Tennessee
ever since the rebel armies surrendered
In refercnce % the Frsedmen's BufeAu occupy
the same position that President johnson seclarsd
to Gen. Howard -
was asked in jeering manner the silly question
as TO whether would be willing TO see negro take
a seat in the Legislature. l retorted by saying II
the people thought proper to elect negro to tue
Legislature, had no right to object The fact that
there is not eoasty IN TIE State where there IS more
negroes than ,chifs people is sufficient commentary
on the demagogusm of those who attempt to array
the people against Union men on the HYPOTHESIS
that they sfe in danger Of having negro legislators;
The next craze charge against me is that said
g. would have no objections to my daughter mar
rying a negro if she fancied him." Now, MIR. Edi-
tor this is purely matter of taste, and as have
nofesrs of nv chIldren marrying negroes, spoke
Lightly of the silly question OF negro social equality
On this question of social negro equality every SEN
sible man knows there has always been more OF II
in the slave than free States.
Our so-called Conservatives are excusable for
ranting this subject if they aPpTehend that their
children will marry negroes Such fears, however,
are with their aristocratic ideas and belief
that their children have been better raised and are
superior to the children of the great mass of the Ia
boring people of the country. rs-l.fe.-t--e
Many unjust and insidious attacks on the charac-
ter of the Union people of East Tennessee have ap-
peared in the editorials and communications of this
paper.
Our people, in effect, have been branded as law
les. and mobocratic After telling the people that
the dominant party in the North are for NEGRO
suffrage and negro equality, after arouslng their
passions and preudces on this subject it is not
prising that mob hung negro soldier in Knox
vile, who had, without Provocation murdered good
citizen 1t is however surprising that this copper
head paper did not do justice to those concerned in
the mob, latter its infsmmatory publications had
been of character to incite mob against negroes
and state all or greater part of the paliating cir
Gums tances attending it.
-. Very respectfully, -
JAMES A. DOUGHTY.

DOingS OF q Young Rebel.

1t is here proposed to give first rate notice of
the acts of young rebel, soldier of the late So
called Confederate States, by the name of Fielding
RAINBOW Kilgore, of Parrottsville, Cooke county,
Tennessee. He passed Abingdon, Va, after the fall
of Richmond, on his way homeward, and proceeded
as far as the neighborhood of Baughman's Ferry,
IN Sullivan county, but fearing to go further, re-
turned to Abingdon, where he remained until Sun
day, the 4th of February, 1866, when he decamped
to parts unknown. He volunteered in the c. S. SER
vice when only about fourteen, ard remained vol
UNFAIRLY in the service to the close of the war: vet
notwithstanding his voluntary service, he bid for
mail contract, which awarded to him, and when
the time for the service to commence had arrived he
went to the p. NJ. here and told him be could not
take the required OATH but after ten days ne chang
ed his mind, what little he has, and went before
magistrate and made oath that he had not yolun
tarily taken up arms against the T. S. nor had he
voluntarily given aid and comfort to those in arms
against the U. S."
lie left his guarantors to pay what fines shall come
out against him. His last place of service here was
as bar tender at hotel. Before leaving he got in
debt to several of our citizens, and made repeated
fair promises to pay, but left without paying any
one He rode off a pretty good horse and had
saddle and saddle-cloth which he took without the
leave or consent Of the owner and when last heard
of was going towards JoneSboro, Tenn
He stated while here that he and another person
made an attempt during the to hang a Union
citizen of Tennessee, but as his word could not be
relied on in all cases, this may or may not be true
The foregoing statements published in the WING
would be of service warming to the people of
Tennessee against possible imposition by this young
rebel. WATcuu.1

Editor Kj'or0itte Whig:-I desire through YOUR
paper to correct Misrepresentation and nisrepre-
sentatlon OF conversation had in the Capitol at
Nashville with two gentlemen on the 23d of last
month, which appeared in the Coppcrhead CONNER
clal OF this city few days since under the heading
Declaration of Principles" This article does me
great injustice. For the purpose of arrayin against
me the deep seated prejudice of the people on the
negro question:, isolated expressions EMPLOYED in
sparrlng conversation and used retorts TO eer-
ing inquiries, paraded before the public as SOL
emn Declaration of Principles"
The conversation referred to was thrust upon me
by curses of the Legislature as composed lin partl
OF Odd fools" This was not insulting to me
because coming from two old friends whom l did
not suppose intended to offend me- | asked why
the Legislators were thus characterized The reply
was because of our bill giving negroes the right to
testify IN inc courts, our effort to dsfranchise the
majority Of the white people Of the State and (ss
they aleged) purpose to enfranchise the negro
" You are blind and butting your brains out" were
the character OF expressions used With epithets
against Congress, these gentlemen asked me, ado
you endorse the Freedmens Bureau Bill" In ref
erence to the Nations representation in Congress
replied that pad motives should not be attributed 70
