The MoonIess Month.

The month of February, 1866. which is
now gone, viii be marked in the astronOmi-
cal calendar as the month which had 70
full moon. January had two full moons,
and March will have two, but February had
none. OF course this peculiar conjuucture
of periods that makes the full moon show
her face but few hours before the month
comes in, and again few hours after the
month goes out, is rare thing in nature
but how rare do you suppose, gentle
reader? It has not occurred before in your
lifetime, nor ours-not since the time of
Washington; not since the discovery of
America by Columbus; no, nor since the
Christian era, nor since the Fall of Adam,
nor since the creation of the world, unless
that period be placed back myriads of
years. And it will not occur again, &C
cording to the computation of astronomers,
for two and half millions of years.

Our representatives h6-nOm1uaGed.
On Monday, 18th inst, thare was an inn
prOmptu, but large and respectable. meeting
of the citizens of Giles County, in pursu-
ance of the Proclamation of the Governor,
to take into consideration the nomination
of candidates to FIJI vacancies in ouI State
Legislature, occurring by the resignation
of the Hon. G. N. Ordway and Hon. Mr..

John A. jackson, Esq, was called to the

FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH IS. 1866
Our Repregentatives.

We are pleased to learn, as we do from
ali quarters of the county, that our sugges-
lions last week with regard to the reelection
of Dr.. ORDwAY. and Mr.. BLEDsoE, meets
with almost universal endorsement. The
masses. of the people entertain profound
admiration for their manly conduct, and
are gratifed that they are to have the OPP
portunity of giving them unanimous APP
proval at the ballot-box. 1t will be seen by
reference to the proceedings of meeting
held here last Monday, that they have been
unanimously re-nomi;ed by the people of
the county. They will ACCEPT, of course.
And now it becomes the duty of every low
er Of constitutional liberty in Tennessee
every opponent of radicalism and rascality
every man who has the privilege of the
elective franchise yet in his hands, to quit
everything else on the 31st inst, and rally
to the rescue of their birthright-their right
to self government-their right to be free
men, and not vassals to set of unprinci-
pied usurpers.. .- t ....s.
4. Let.no voter stay away from the polls un-
der the ,suPposition that his ballot is unim-
poTtants and wholly unnecessary for the
election of these men. True, your single
vote is a small matter, but the single votes
of several hundred men who think as you
do, is not small matter; and it is of the ut
most importance at this critical juncture
this crisis in the affairs of the State
that every voice be heard and every ballot
counted--that the endorsement of our rep
resentatives be overwhelming, and crushing
to the radicals And let it be remembered
that every voter who fails to exercise his
privilege as an,elector, virtually surrenders
that sacred right to tie radicals, who will
Immediately claim him as an adherent to
their diabolical schemes of disfranchise-
ment, and destruction to constitutional gov
eminent in Tennessee. This is the issue
now pending. Will you quietly surrender
your dearest rights, or will you rally to
the support Of good and true men who are
standing as wall of protection between
you and the consuming fires of radicalism,
and who are the earnest supporters of the
President in his glorious work of restora-
ton and reconciliation. He, too, is now
earnestly looking toward Tennessee with
mingled hopes and fears Will the people
of my own loved Tennessee home sustain
the action of that patriotic band of Legisla-
tors who have heroically thrown themselves
across the track ofradicalism, and stopped
the preparation of an outrageous fraud upon
the people! Let the lightnings flash an an
swer to the President that on the 31st of
March, 866, the people of his State rebuked
the treacherOus majority of her Legislature,
and endorsed her noble soE, the President
srasthe United States.

The Bar of Pulaski have met this day to
unite with the members of our Profession
all over Tennessee in paying tribute of
respect to the memory Of that able jurist,
upright Judge and good man, who died in
our midst, and while holding our Courts
It was Indeed with the most painful feelings
and ptofound sensation that the tidings
reached us early Sunday morning, that
Chancellor FR1ERsoN was dead We allfelt
that we had lost warm-hearted and dear
Friend-that we had lost an impartial and
just Judge, land that his loss at this critical
juncture was great public calamity.
For twelve years he was Chancellor of
this Division, and during all the time he
presided over our Courts, not an unkind
word was ever uttered by any member of
the Profession respecting the Court. Pa
tiently aud oourteously he listened to every
argument that was made, and calmly aud
clearly he delivered his opinions aud De-
crees, inspiring all with the settled cOnvie-
ton, that in coming to his conclusions he
was Influenced by the single determination
to administer the law and to do Justice
Among the many distinguished Judges
who have adorned the Bench in Teunes-

man whose loss we deplOre. On this ocea.

that in paying the highest honors to bis
memory. we are but giving utterance to the
feelings of every member Of the Bar, By
whom the recollection of the virtues of gu,

JEFF. Davis---His Expressions on National
Statutes, &c.

Jen. DaV1s---H1s Expressions on National
Statutes, &c.
The Fortress Monroe correspondent of
the New York Herald of Feb. 18th, speak
of Mr. Davis, says:i
"I see the Government naval steamer
Conemaugh, on the anniversary of Wash
isgton's birthday, fred a gun for all the
States, North and South,' remarked JEFF
Davis afteFward to the officer of the day.
cit is strange the Administration, he con
tinued, "did not issue an order to ignore
the States Of the Confederacy." These two
remarks Of the quondam august ruler of
the Confederacy, though of no special i'm
portance, show this much, at least-that his
once busy brain is still keenly alert to note
passing events, and make his comments
upon them. In his further observations I
understand he gave credit to President
Johnson for his recognition of the late re-
bellious States, Of whom, from first to last,
he has always spoken in terms of highest
praise.
1 am informed that since he has been
most plainly outspoken in commentator of
the Presidents veto of the Freedmen's Blu
reau Bill. Quoting the remarks OF JEFF.
Davis reminds me to say that the order is
sued some time since, forbidding officers
in attendance on him to speak to him, or
him to them, has been rescinded. Few
men can be more pleasantly garrulous than
Mr. Davis, when he is in the mood for it,
and this renewal of privilege and enjoy
ment of which he was only temporarily, and
as many think, very stupidity, debarred, is
greatly relished by him as well as by the
officers of the fort, who never fail to find in
his conversation a most substantial feast of
reason. It is noted, however, of late that
he makes no reference to his trial.
He talks of politics, of the war, and ru-
mors of war beyond the sea, of affairs in
South America, Of new books and new in
ventions, and gives racy sketches of his old
Congressional days, interspesred with rich
and rare "reminiscences of the men and
measures of those days. He runs over, in
fact, the whole catalogue of conversational
topics, ana nelbhef eXnauSLS the 6aDlecLS
nor himself. At times only monosylables
can be extracted from him. His spirits
and vivacity are gone. A mantle of i'm
penetrable gloom seems to overhang him.
No one essays to prOlOng those monOsylla-
bles into sentences, to rouse those spirits,
to lift that overshadowing vestment of sor-
rowing despair. Why SO gloomy he never
tells, whether concerns temporal or spirit
ual or state move and sway him. His
physical health is good, and in the past few
days of balmy air and brig >-pnshine, has
shown marked improvement. Meantime
the search of vessels coming here is still
kept up on the lookout for possible parties
coming for his rescue.

FRED. DOUeLAs, the great Head Center
of the. 'oolored BRETHREN has delivered
another lecture in Washington tor the en-
lightenment of his Congressional and other
admirers. In abiding to the President he
said that perhaps it would be better to leave
Mr.. johnson to speak for himself, as being
the most damaging thing he can do for
himself. But what, he asked, shall be said
of him who told us that traitors must take
back seat in the work of restoration, if he
now invests those same traitors with the
supreme control of the States in which they
live? What shall be said of him who
promised to be the Moses of the colored
race, if he becomes their Pharoah instead?
Why, this must be said: ''that he had better
never to have been born"
This last .sentance is ominous, and
must have created quite sensation. 1t is
said that Gen. Howard was present, and
made a few remarks expressive of earnest
sympathy with the cause.
