The President is troubled with patriotic fears
He has, as every one knows, the greatest
solicilude that the reconstruction of the
Southern States should 60 forward rapidly,
If it viii only 60 forward in his par
ticular way; and now he sees, or thinks he
SEES O dreadful danger ahead-an interruption
of this happy progress; an interruption that
may be greater than that hitherto c,used by
the interference and obstinacy of Congress,
which, like the eleven jurors Of stubborn and
happy memory, refused to listen to the one man
who could have told them exactly what to do.
This interruption is likely to arise from Presi-
dent making. The President is alarmed lest
1.-The great struggle for the Presidency" should
turn the eyes OF the country and Congress
Southern States in the natural relation with
the rest of the country-lest tho interests and
welfare of the Southern people should be over
looked and forgotten in the ntrigues and tur-
MOL of the great quadrennial strife. He sees
the nation laboring under many troubles-re-
construction, an Indian war; the national debt.
Mexico, and the contest for the Presidency The
greatest of these is the last, and the greatest
danger of this is that it may arrest the progress
of reconstruction.
This fear is honorable to the President 1t
shows his sincerity; it furnishes, indeed, the
most indubitablc evidence that the President
is not self willed and over fond OF his own
opinions on reconstruction, nor DESTROYS TO carry
out plans of his own to the exclusion Of the
plans of the nation for surely if the President
did desire, as has been charged, to
have his own way with recOnstruc-
ton, to build up refractory State govern
rhents, and put the South once more
into the hands of unwhipped rebels, what could
he wish better than that Congress should have
its attention distracted by Presidential games,
SO that he could be left to manage the South as
he chose, unimpeded and unobserved. Did he
desire these things he would have no such
fears as he now expresses. But, lest he should
have sleepless nights with this honorable and
patriotic alarm. we beg to reassure him there is
no danger. The people will choose Presi-
dent and keep an eye on the Southern States
also. There never was time when President
making had 80 little danger in it as i. has now;
when there was so little to divide the nation
and give rise to a faciious spirit Indeed, Grant
is already chosen by the universal acclaim
of the people, and We have only to go through
the formaities of election. The consideration
of these facts will relieve Mr.. Johnson's
anxiety.

The Fighting Factions in Tennessee.


In Tennessee the State government is in the
hands OF an outrageous faction-ex!remists
who carry radicalism to its utmost limit !;
and, though nominally in sympathy with the
great republican party OF the North, this tyran-
nical faction has, by its bitter personalities and
its hostility to nearly all decent men in the
State, arrayed against it the mass of those who
believe in the Union and desire an honest
reconstruction of the country. Hence we have
a singular contradiction in party names. Con-
sentative in other Southern States means the
party more or less affiliated with the old secesh
leaders and opposed to the republican
supremacy. But in Tennessee il means the
men who desire the triumph Of the principles
and authority of the republican party, and
desire nothing so much as to see cut short the
tyranny of the notorious Parson Brownlow,
who has dropped all questions of party and
policy in the pursuit of personal antipathies.
The canvass in the State has been carried on
with great passion, and there have been, as our
readers know, several bloody ARRAYS. The
fear was that these were but the prelude to the
greater atrocities of election day, and that
Brownlow, who has an organized armed force,
would wreak savage vengeance on those
opposed to his parry. But as General Grant is
now moving in the matter, and giving to Ten
nessee the same attention he gave just before
the battle that crushed Hood, there is every
promise that proper distribution of govern.
ment troops will once more make the Ten
nesseeans practically free, and keep Brown
lows bravoes in wholesome awe.

what In "A Democrats

That there Is little or no difference be-
tween the words Democrat" and IKE
publican" in the strict sense Of the term,
the dictionaries tell us, but notWith-
standing this, as a contemporary remarks,
II is at times very difficult to determine
or get any idea of what modern Democ-
racy or latter day Democrat is, IN view
OF the fuotusting cox On OF that
party and its press. No two Northern
journals have the same principles or
make the same professions upon national
affairs, and in fact hardly any two col
umns Of any given Democratic sheet
are consistent with each other. Not so
in the South, however. There to hate
the national blue and extol the confeder-
ate gray is the short and simple creed OF
Democratic faith. To this view the
whole party, North and South, for the
past six years have been drifting and
will shortly come. Even now some OF
our Democratic friends in Vermont bear
their disguise ungracefully, and under
the excitement of temporary victory
at the late elections, are FESTIVE under 1t,
and give vent TO their feelings in such
modes as serenading the wife of the
traitor President Davis with the favorite
Southern air Of "Dixie,"
The editor OF the Jefferson Weekly
Clarion, Democratic journal Of Texas,
in late number undertakes to define for
his readers the nature and duties OF a
Democrat. We think he has well sue
ceeded, and II he perseveres In the path
which he has SO sharply "blaIed out, "
as he expresses it, he will no doubt at
tain to prominence in the councils OF his
party. Hear him:
have for long years been an unfinch-
ing Democrat of the iron-jaCket kind,
or, In artistic words, "heart-stsved and
iron. bound" believing that these doc
trines have made the Republic, kept it
in the high pathway of its destiny, and
by their desertion left us dismembered
and in ruins. A nullifier in 1880; Sc
cessionist in 1861, and, at this crisis, an
unmitigsted and unreconstructed rebeI
so to continue, if it be forever, so long
as the "iron age" OF swords is upon US
with the bayonet for law and jury
Notwithstanding this, l shall advise
myself and all others to submit to the
convincing and uncomfortable argument
of necessity, because we cannot help
ourselves. On the following subjects
these are my opinions, in common with
the editors Of this paper, and shall di-
rect my course:
Reconstruction. That every man
should register and await developments.
If it is then to be seen that we shall be
able to elect such delegates to the con-
vention as will form such constitution
as shall give all men their rights, and
not iDdorse the unconstitutional acts OF
the "Rump Congress" and its military
despotism; If we can keep the negro
from being our equal and our master;
If we can choke down the Soutern radi'
Gals, those hydrids Of negro, Yankee and
traitor-then we shall favor convention
and reconstruction otherwise, a death
like struggle on every inch of ground.

of them. The interior disclosed showed
the cupboard to be Of considerable

shelves and books, on and about which
were bestowed about as miscellaneous a

mud baked hard and dry on them
there were bonnets and hats with falls
and feathers attached, and parasols more
or less sound and fashionable. There
was en- deliberately "wGrked" pettico&t
once white, which, the sergeant informed
me, one of his men had strangely enough
discovered suspended across the rail of c
street lamp post. OF male attire the
collection was scarcely as large and va
riOus, and was, indeed, mainly confined
to hats and coats, and travelling shawls
But besides these there Was an extensive
assortment of baskets and carpet and
leather bags, and walking sticks and
umbrellas, besides several Just such
bundles as q thief might drop in the
heat of the chase, glad enough to escape
on such easy terms. But what chiefly
attracted my attention was 2 pair Of
great clumsy boots, utterly worn out,
with heels aslant and with holes fretted
in their upper par, blue as bilberries
with mildew, against which the russell
rust OF the battered nail heads showed
to advantage.
