Ok the first page, VIC publish the
very able Veto Message of the Presi.
dent aud commend it to the perusal
Of our readers, The time has passed
when reason and justice can find any
Judgment in Radical minds; but so
much the greater the necessity that
the people should clearly understand
how grossly their constitutional
rights arc violated and the arguments
that vindicate them against the sweep
ing inroads Of Radical usurpation.
To this end, the message is a valua,
BILE auxiliary, and no one can read it
carefully without acquiring fuller
understanding of the lawlessness Of
Radicalism and the terrible cons.
quences that must follow. Most Of
cur readers will, we think, agree with
US that it 10 passing strange that the
President should consent to carry
into effect, the monstrous outrage
which he has so clearly exposed and
30 sternly denounced.

THE abolition papers are manifest
ing great anxiety for the adoption of
the Sherman reconstruction bill, by
the South. The arguments used by
some Of them, are queer specimens
Of logic. One says, adopt the prop
esition or you will have to take worse
terms and another says, adopt it,
and perhaps the North will get sorry
for you and relcnt. IF there is any
thing worse for the southern people
than to be brought under subsection
to their former slaves, the Radicals
ought to have an opportunity to dis
close il, and show to the world, that
the abolitionists are to the South,
what the devil is to hell.
We don't know what southerners
may think Of such arguments as are
being used to persuade them to set
the seal upon their degradation and
ruin, but hope they will see that one
Of the objects of the Radicals is to
shift part of their infamy to the
shoulders Of the South by making it
appear that tho degradation of the
latter is, in part, sclfimposcd. No,
thing could be more gratifying to
the malignant spirit of Radicalsm
than to see the people of the South
grovelling ip infamy at the footstool
of their usurped power, But, SO far
from relenting, such spectacle would
only initiate their self-conceit, and
pamper their Unsuitable malignity
We speak advisedly on this point,
having to deal, here in Tennessee,
with southern tribe of the same
savages, glorying in their skilful use
of the torch aud scalping.knife.

SOME Of our Kentucky exchanges
are warmly contesting their respect.
i've claims to the purest democracy
and the most effective service to the
party. 1t seems to us that they are
engaged in very Improbable bust
ness. 1t is our private opinion that,
if there had been no democratic par
ty to keep the subject of slavery in
eternal agitation, there might have
been no abolition party, powerful
enough to precipitate the country
into civil war. At any rate, democ-
racy failed to save the Union and the
Constitution, and falling in this, it
has no record worth quarrelling about
especially at time which demands
a union of all conservative men, if
we would crush treason and re. estab-
lish constitutional liberty.

BEAST Butler moves to instruct
the judiciary Committee to enquire
whether a civil officer can hold his
Office during impeachment, or must
be suspended. We move that the
Committee enquire further, whether
an arrant thief can hold a scat in
Congress pending his impeachment
at the bar of public opinion, or
should be suspended until he is ac-
quilted by a jury, or has served out
his term in the Penitentiary.

oONb VI Oui ACbhCosVS
are becoming quite impatient on the
subject Of Convention, and VIC are
pleased to see it, as evidence Of zeal
that is far from being in excess. No
doubt, the Conservatives will have a
Convention in due time, composed of
the best men in the State, and we
hope It will lay down such platform
and take so firm .ond wise a stand in
behalf Of the rights Of dishonored
State and an oppressed people, ms will
insure the overthrow of the tyrants
who now hold sway. The next four
or Eve months will reveal the fate in
reserve for Tennessee. Upon the
doings Of this short period, turns
the question of permanent enslave-
ment, or emancipation from political,
social and commercial ills which the
results of war and the spirit of de-
mons have inflicted upon us. To
the assembling Of such Convention,
wo shall look, with intonse interest
but see no propriety in hurrying its
meeting, believing that the immedi
alto future will indicate the time and
perhaps, suggest topics for conside
ration.
In the meantime, every true frient
Of liberty-all who earnestly desir,
tho restoration Of harmony and tn,
return of prosperity should be active
ly at work. There is much to d.
before, during, and after the session
Of the Convention, so there is no cx
cuse for idleness. Cut out work 70
that body, and prepare the popula
mind for the reception of its DEGREES
Every man has influence, and wheI
honest and earnest in support of
good cause, can exert it proftabl
without waiting for instructions fror
any quarter. We all know the end
to be gained and, keeping these i
view, cant work amiss on any mate
rial that is presented to US.

aH ENTERPRfSE, Miss March "a, 1851.
MEssRs. EufroRs:-In the fulillment Of
my promise, desire to communicate through
your journal, to the good citizens Of Clarks-
vile and Montgomery county, the thanks Of
our people for their noble generosity in re-
lieving the destitu,ion which is SO prevalent
among US and continually on the increase.
Since my return, there has been developed
one painful fact, which had not taken into
the account in my representations.
There are many small planters, who could
make their crops this season, and do well
with the materials they have on hand, but
are unable to accomplish anything for the
want of means to procure supplies tooarry
on their farming operations. This win be
o great draw back to hundreds, and they will
have to content themselves with much small
er crops. With good season they can,
perhaps, make barely enough to keep of
pressing want.
The destitution increases weekly and
makes all our effort, thus far, pale before the
accumulatng distress on every hand. I'm.
der these circumstances, have resolved to re-
new my efforts, and devote more time to this
laudable and worthy work. .....
1t would have gladdened the hearts o
yeur people, If they could have witnessed tin
distribution, rs did, of the goods which
Messrs. Helms and johnson so generously
contributed.
II spread Joy In many a household in on
midst, and was received with tears of graft
tude and expressions Of heartfelt thanks b.
the applicants for relief.
The good which their contribution did, il
connection with the liberal donation Of good
from the Ladies Relief Society, of Bowling
green, fully determined me to redouble m.
efforts in this godlike work.
We have now perfected all our arrange
ments to make a fair and equitable distribu
ton without regard to UNCONVENTIONAL dis
tinctions. Captain wolverton, Capt. Davi
W. B. Smith and Judge Evans, of Clar
county, Judge Ryan, of Jasper county
and w. P. Evans, Of Lauderdale, hav
been appointed committee by the En-
terprise R>lef Society, to issue certificates
all applicants who are destitute and worth.

lieve that the number willreach five tho

basis for increased effort on our part.

WHY are the Radicals so anxious
to impeach the President? Surely
no man of their own party can better
carry their DEGREES into effect. 1t is
true that he grumbles at the task as
signed him, and fiaunts the -Consti-
tuition in their faces; but this does
not impede their progress, and they
ought to wink at the funny little
trick he is resorting to, OF trying to
win the reputation of being the de-
fender of the Constitution, whilst he
co-operates with them in its daily
and gross violation. 1t is a shallow
device that deceives no one, and il
the Radicals wish to get rid of him
efiectually, they ought to leave hin
to break his own neck by the fall he
will get in trying to sit on two stools
at once.
