FRIDAY, AUGUST Q, 1867.
The Teun~ssee Election,

The great triumph OF the Union party
In Tennessee, fills every patriotic heart
with joy. The battle has been fought
and a glorious victory won, settling
the vexed question as to where the
new freemen of the nation are TO be
bound in a political contest, and ends all
discussion in regard to the colored vote
OF the South. All the promises and
threatenings that have been made by the
Conservative partycould not win the freed
men to give their sympathies oil. theirbal-
lots to those who have opposed their
liberation. The colored men were in
vited by the conservatives to join them
In their conventions by sending del
egates, and rendering them portion of
the officers In the gift of the people. Re-
fusal to vote for Emerson Etheridge,
dismissal from the service OF the plant
ers of Western Tennessee was the penal
ty and so universal had these threats
been thrown out that General Thomas
was compelled to interfere for their pro-
lection. But the result shows that they
could not be induced by nattery nor
driven by fear, into the support OF those
who were the enemies to their freedom
and their political rights. They dared
not trust them and therefore they
marched to the polls to exercise the first
political rights oftheir manhood and cast
their vote solidly for the Union Can
didates. This unanimity of action is
prophetic Of the future.
The results of the election in Ten
nessee give evidence that if the Union
party are true to themselves at the
North, the party will triumph in the
South. The assurance is now given in
unmistakable signs that the fullest coz
rdence OF the colored voters of the States
lately in rebellion is given to the Union
party. The great trial has been made of
impartial suffrage and eqaal rights and
has come off victorious, and the same
great results are to follow in all the
South If prudence, moderation and JUS
tice prevails.

people. The foreign prisoners taken at

A CURIOUS SECT.-A California cores
pondent gives q brief account Of
curious religious Iorder in Mexico called
the "Pretontists"
This Order, with its curious customs,
has been handed down by the old Fran
ciscan Ffiars of Spain. Every Friday
duringLent they go through this penance
An indefinite number, generally from 70
to 80, divesting themselves Of all super
fuous clothing, except pair OF drawers
rolled up to the knee, and red handker-
chief around the head. Officers are elect
ed (who do not disrobe themselves) all
furnished with a peculiar kind OF whip,
made very pliable, except those who hold
the post of honor, to the number OF i've
or six, who carry large, heavy cross,
bewn out of rough timber, which is so
heavy and unwieldly thSt when the
cross is upon the shoulder the long, up,
right piece drags on the ground, All
leave their place of resort, sing melan-
choly sort of chant, and going to a Ger
tain place where a large cross is firmly
planted in the ground, they drop upon
their knees in circle round the cross
then begin to beat themselves, alternate
" over each shoulder, according as they
think their sins deserve. The whip
strikes In the small of the back, keeping
time to the chant, while shutting around
the circle. The cross bearers, who have
their hands full, are kindly provided for
by the officers who take it upon them
selves to whip those who have not the
ability to whip themselves. Their backs
as we saw them resembled a mass OF
raw flesh, with the blood not trtckling
from one place but hundreds. The blows
could be heard for full half mile, I'LL
ing the bystsnders with an indescrlo,
able horror, while the cold chill runs over
his frame in thinking how it is possloIe5
for human beings to be so ignorant ana
degraded as to do this. The penance Is
over with the last of Lent.

BASE BALL.-A match game Of Base
Ball was played at Fairhaven on We'd
neSday last between the Ariad CLUB of
that place and the Empire Club of
Whitehall, N. Y. The game was played
on the ground of the Ariad Club, the
stakes being a regulation ball. The
game commenced at half,psst one p. M,
and lasted three hours and a half, and
resulted in decided victory for the
Arads, the score standing 81 for them
to q for the Whitehall boys.
The heat was intense, but large con-
course Of people nevertheless assembled
to witness the game, and the boys
played with tireless energy to the last.
The Ariads were first to the bat and
gained decided advantage on this in.
ing, which they maintained through the
entire game. The members of this club
have had but very little practice, but
they played with skill and accuracy
worthy of veterans. Their batting was
excellent, and in fact the game in all
its departments was most excellently
played by them. The Empire Club
played with persistent energy and
commendable skill, endeavoring to the
last to win the game. The best of feel
ing prevailed, and at the close of the
game the Ball was gracefully yielded to
the "Arisds" amid the cheers of the EN-.
pire boys who felt, though they had lost
their prize, it was won by an adversary
worthy to receive it. -

DIR, Frederick Wooster Owen, chief
clerk of the Freedmen's Bureau, has re-
signed that position.
The President has expressed his in
tention of visiting Tennessee for a few
DAYS, and to leave for the moment Off
cial duties will permit,
There is no foundation whatever for
the report now being circulated of the
probability of Juarez retiring from the
Presidency of Mexico and coming to
Washington as Minister. So say the
Mexican Legation.
The course of two or three leading
Democratic papers inadvising the Pres
ident not to remove Gen. Sheridan may
have some effect at the White House, as
the President has sent for the papers
containing the articles.
General Grant publicly expresses
the opinion that Gen. Sheridan will not
be removed. He s.ys that neither Thomas
nor Hancock can be spared from their
present commands to succeed him. The
President has sent for Gen. Rousseau,
and it is conjectured that he will super
sede Sheridan.

there is no reason why he should hest
