The TENNESSEE ELECTION returns
shows that the Republicans have not only
elected all their eight members of Congress,
but every State Senator and Representative
in the Legislature but three, while Governor
Brownlow's majority is nearly or quite 50,-
600. The Republicans not only had a major
ity of some 1000 of the colored vote, but
they had not less than $1,000 majority of
the white vote. In East Tennessee. which
was loyal to the Union all through the war,
and where there is comparatively small
colored population, the vote was well nigh
unanimous for the Republicans. For in
stance, in Cumberland county, the Knox
vile Wing states that there were but FIVE
colored votes altogether, yet the vote stood,
for Brownlow $50, for Ethridge democrat
ic), 4: and it is substantially the same in all
that loyal region of the State. The Wing
exultingly remarks that never was party
so overwhelmingly defeated as the Conser-
vatives since the formation of parties at the
crossing of the Red Sea!

Sharswood and Calhoun.

We have been looking over that interes-
ting volume called ''The Ecami,aer and
journal of Political Economy, Deroted to
the Advancement otthe Cause Of State Rights
and Free Trade
This, it will be remembered, says the
Press, is the book from which the Union
Republican State Committee recently cop
led sundry proceedings of State-rights
meeting, including part of George Shars-
woods grafton and some of the toasts given
on the occasion. This meeting was held in
the Commissioners Hall, in the Northern
Liberties, Philadelphia, the next year after
the attempted notification by South Carroll
ma. Andrew jackson was then President,
and it was essentially an anti-J ackson meet
ing, as the following toasts drank on the oc-
casion will show:
1.-THE Executive and his servile retainers
touch but bristle Of the royal prerogative,
and the whole stye is in an uproar. Let
them learn by the signs of the times that
the people know their rights, and knowing
will defend them.
This was an emphatic blow at Old Hick-
0ry anu Ills IfleUuS, Uut uOC uOTe 80 tud1
the ninth regular toast on the occasion,
which was as follows:
'"The Proclamation-itb bears no semblance
to the Greed of Jefferson.
This referred to the celebrated proclama-
tion of fPresident Jackson, in which he warn
ed the nullifers to desist from their treason
able practices, to abandon their State-rights
heresies, and to submit to the laws of the
United States.
George Sharswood figured largely at this
meeting. As 1.-The orator of the day." he
delivered lengthy eulogy on the Virginia
and Kentucky resolutions Of 1898 and 1899.
He was one Of the vice presidents of the
meeting, and he was also one of the commit
tee on invited guests. In this latter capaci
ty he invited John G. Calhoun to be pres
ent on the occasion. This distinguished
free trader and nulliier could not attend
but sent a letter of regret, enclosing senti
ment glorifying "the Virginia and Ken
lucky resolutions as the rock of our politica
salvations."

OPINION OF GEN PoPE.-The letter of
General Pope to General Grant, describing
the progress of reconstruction in Georgia,
Alabama, and Florida, says: The party
which is in accord with the Northern Dem
ocracy ''are bitterly opposed to reconstruc-
:" ton under the acts of Congress; opposed
sin fact to any reconstruction whatever ex-
''cept such as would leave them a, precise
" ~ the same political condition as IF there
g had been no rebellion and no icdr.
Their only reliance for this restoration is a
revulsion in Northern sentiment, and to the
efforts of their allies in the loyal States they
look for return of the period when they
can rule the nation they struggled so despe-
rately to ruin, when they can command the
armies they strove in vain to conquer, when
they can control the great national interests
they endeavored to destroy, and guide the
destinies of the Republic which withstood
their vindictive assaults
