THE GALLATTN AFFAIR.-We have re-
ceived communication from Gallatin in
regard to the Commissioner of Registration

thoroughly exposed to the satisfaction Of our
Sumner county friends, and must therefore
decline to publish it. It refers to the char
acter Of the Commissioner more particular
ly, and this, if half the communication
states be true, is unworthy of notice, and I'M
fit for public reading.
