TennessAa Legislature.

We print the following for the benefit of
ONE individual, and hope that every man in
Hardeman county will read it "Our
Representative, it will be seen, talked big
talk" and called hard names. OF course
Andrew Johnson feels injured" and is
sadly disappointed, for he had every reason
to believe that this county sustained him
in his liberal and statesmanlike measures to
bring about a permanent settlement of all
the troubles that have and are now croudiDg
peace and prosperity from our doors but
alas Smith, "odr" representative, says
the chief Executive is a seoundrell Read,
read
Mr. Norman, of Carroll, offered the fol
lowing:
WHEREAS. The course pursued by the Ex-
ec1tive Of the United States in pardOnine
rebels of AL grades makes it manifest that
no rebel will be punished for his rebellious
conduct; therefore, with the view of saving
the State from useless expenditure of
IAoney.
BE It resolved by the General Assembly of
the. State OF Tennessee That so much of a
resolution adopted on the first day Of May
1865, as authorized and instructed His Ex-
eellencv, the Governor, to offer a reward of
and delivery of Isham G. Harris to the
civil authorities Of this State, be and the
same is hereby repealed.
BE it further resolved, That His EXeellency,
the Governor, is hereby directed to revoke
that part of his proclamation which offers a
reward of FIVE thousand dollars for the ap-
prchension of said Isham G. Harris.
1t was moved that the resolution be laid
on the table
I he mover Of the resolution explained his
object lie said he thought Harris would
be brought in and the five thousand dollars
claimed while he was sure that he or any
ether rebel. would not be punished
Several remarks followed, when Mr. Smith,
Of Iardeman, said he had thought well of
the import of the resolution lie said that
he mowers of the renegade and scoundrel,
johnson. who now occupied the Presidential
chair. had been in one sense restricted. lie
was not afraid of his pardoning the base
and renegade Governor Harris, if he was
spprehended. He hoped the resolution
would be withdrawn.
The resolution was finally deferred with
out action.
Mr. Norman introduced the above resolu-
si5ns on tho 2Sth nit an we wish to say

sentative Of the people Of Hardeman county

HIUoER- The foul mouth radicals Of this
woe befallcn State arc going to have pow
erful time this coming summer. In order
to win advocates to their lawless clan they
are going to import dozen or more of the
spoon-lifting eelskinning fraternity of the
north, and have them stump every county in
the State. Among them will be Fred Doug
las, the negro orator (2), who. a few days ago
created quite sensation in Cincinnati, by
SEATING in his lecture there, that he was in
favor of uboIishing the Office of vice-presi-
dent, and intimated that Andrew Johnson
was an ambitious man and did covert the
position occupied by Abraham Lincoln, in
sinuating that the present Chief Executive
had something to do with the deep damna-
ton of his taking of" Niger Douglas and
Beast Butler to stump Tennesseel Good

The Bankrupt La10.-Recent advi;es
from Washington represent that the friends
of the National Bankrupt Law are entirely
confident that Mr. Jenckes' bill, which has
already passed the House, will soon pass
the Senate. The principal obstacle in the
way is the objection urged by Messrs. FOgg,
Morrill,, SPrague and Wilson, who oppose
its passage until the Southern debtors shall
have paid up a portion Of their indebtedness
to the North Nevertheless Greedy thinks
that he shall be able to congratulate the
country on the passage of a good bankrupt
