Now IS THE TDiE.-By reference TO an
other column it will be seen that Brownlow
has issued proclamation, and given notice
that elections are to be held in certain coun-
ties in this State to fill vacancies. 1t will
also be seen that Hardeman county is men
toned If Gen'l W J. Smith will do as he
Ought-resign all claims to a seat in the leg
islature-the loyal people of the county will
be most happy to conform to the require
ments Of the proclamation. Common sense,
It seems, should teach any man, especially
after being requested to resign by formal
convention, to relinquish all claims as a rep
resentative of apeople Smith knows that he
does not reflect the wishes of the inhabitants
of Hardeman; be knows that the people of
the county had no voice In eleeting him to a
seat in the legislature he knows that he has
been requested to resign. Why does he re-
fuse7 What possible good to him or any
one else is to follow refusal2 If he wishes
to deal fair, why does he not resign and then
place himself before the people as a candi-
date for the Office of member of the Lower
House2
In years gone by, Hardeman county rep
resentatiyes stood in the front ranks of those
who assembled at Nashville to pass laws for
the benefit of the people of Tennessee AL

thing now; and any man who denies her
this right is far from being the friend of her
citizens. No one can say that it is rebel

Smith, and hold with truth. Just the revese
Of this is the case. Men who were always
true to the old Union; who opposed seces
sion and strife from the first; men whose
moral and political characters know no stain
do not hesitate to say that it is one of the
greatest impOsitions ever practieed, to have
a man claim to be their representative and
chosen servant when they publicly declare
that he is not their choice, and that they
never desired him to assume the duties o
the Office which he has so Enthusiastically
filed. Now is the time, and there is no ex
cuse-let the people choose their OWN ser

WHICH Do You PREFER Pin view Of the
fact that many excellent and well-meaning
gentlemen, not only here, but elsewhere,
feel little timid about endorsing heartily
the action of the late National Union Con
yention that met at Philadelphia in August
last, we are led to ask the question, which
is preferable, the National Union Party, the
party whose platform is the old constitution
as it was, with no alterations whatever, or the
Radical-Rump- Congress Party, whose plat
form Is negro suffrage, abrogated State rights,
mutillated constitution, the whole backed
up by con6scation, bonded aristocracy and
New England tariffs? Which of these two
parties do you like the best7 Possibly, you
may say that little or no faith can be placed
in the conservative republicans of the north /;
certainly have said and will say again that
the Congressional party is fanatical in the
extreme and ready and willing at all times-to
override every law sacred or divine to carry
out their thieving, plundering designs. You
can take refuge no where but IN one or the
other Of the parties named above; to remain
idle and trust to others is the worst Of folly
on which side will you stand? You are not
asked to throw away your lifelong cherished
principles by the conservative party; you
are only asked to assist in the work of pre-
serving the old constitution as It was, which,
time and again, has been declared by the
ablest leaders in the south to be ample for the
protection of all. The congressional party
demand that you humble yourself in the dust
and make no murmur when the degrading
chains Of negro-sufrage and negro-equality
are placed upon your captive limbs Which
party do you prefer? If the conservative
party wins in the coming contest, peace and
prosperity, to some extent, at least, viii once
more assume their accustomed places L
the opposite party is clothed with triumph
bloodshed, war, and devastion is more thar
likely to engulph us in one common ruin
Which party do you prefer2
