ARE We RIGHT OF wResss

EprroRs CHRONICLES ION the eth Of No
vember last, Division Of the Scns Of Tenn
p.rance was instituted in GAINESVILLE. That
the movement was well timed, and calculat.
ed to DO productive of much good, then
felt fsIiy convinced, and engaged 10 the
work with warm heart and strong arm, Be.
lieving that was right, and that the cause
was one in which might justly feel proud
to labor. Subsequent events. however, have
left me somewhat in doubt % 10 whether
am right or wrong, in thus laboriug 70 break
down and destroy what is, in other comma
mites, admitted to be . gigantic social and
moral evil.
With view of making the movement
more generally known, and Of securing the
aid and cooperation Of those whose inau-
epce we know to be overwhelmingly in
creasing our members and charging our
sphere Of usefulness, in forwarding q work
we honestly thought to be right--a work
which We deemed second only In impor-
lance to that of the Christian religion
We delegated member Of our Order to al
dress the citizens of GAINESVILLE, in behalf Of
our cause. The brother chosen TO discharge
that duty, is of high moral and religion,
standing in society, and In accordance with
his instructions, he appealed particularly end
urgently to certain persons to unite with U,
10 our efforts to stay the progress Of intern.
perance. We especially desired and asked
the aid and influence Of ministers, recogniz-
ing them as eminently fitted to lead us inn
movement having for its object the puri6.
catiO Of our moral atmosphere.
But am sorry to say, not ons Of our mir
istsrs haus responded Jasorably to that ap
peal
Now, what 4 desire to know is this Ar,
we to consider their silence, and failure Il
act negative snswer' Do they fail to SCI
enough Of good in our intentions to to en-
dorse our action, and Join us, actively, in tn,
work 2 Are we right or wrong7 five art
right may we not reasonably expect thei1
earnest cooperation II We are wrong,
call upon them to show us our error, and do
nounce the movement. Upon this question
there Is no middle ground. They who ~,
not for W., are against ~.
With every assurance that this commune
cation is dictated BY no ill.spirit, and feel
ing satisfied that circumstances fully justif!
me in making this inquiry, ! respectful,
request and shall patiently await an an

which must meet with the hearty approval
Of every honest heart In TENNESSEE. Too
long have our people been cursed with party
and party rancor 1t Is the rock upon which
the ship of state has been dashed to pieces
And now the war 10 over, q disposition Il
manifested by some who thirst for power

who can rise above party, and act for the
good Of the country-men who are actuatsd
by higher and purer motives, than self sg
grandixement. .,i...e ..-+.

whom the people can and will unite Who
is the man that can restore fraternsl feelings

words of encouragement and hope. Thu
change was sudden and remarkable. Al

A few nights since, Fred. Douglas
refused to lecture in Indianapolis
unless the niggers and white folks
were seated together. Of course the
managers of the Hall yielded, and
the social miscegenation was accom-
plished. Where there is no real diff
ference, except in color aud odor, We
see no valid objection to such mix
ture.

IL the President should be i'm

that Stanton and Holt will be agents
for the manufacture and getting up

he suffer himself to be impeached,
upon him will rest the responsibility
for all the evils that must follow.

"L
Dcux n ~ soutlsrn Exchanges
say HAT tAs nsgross - unwilling to
oositast, BY tie year, and demand a
share Of The crop. The same feeling
prevails here to some extent, but We
think our farmers, generally, see the
evils Of such engagements, and many
decline TO enter into them. The Ia
borsrs employed On such terms, viii
do no work that h outside the crop,
and the result is that they have to be
paid for extra labor, or dilapidation
will soon show itself upon buildings
and fencing. But when they are en-
ployed by the year, much time can
be devoted 70 Improvement and re-
pairs without interfering with the
cultivation of the soil. Working on
shares is losing business, and the
sooner the farmer quits it the better
He will end that, after furnishing the
land and buildings, free Of rent, the
team, the implements, the fire-wood,
and adds to these the wear and tear,
his share win be much the smallest,
and his trouble and vexation more
than double, in point of discomfort,
the manual labor Of any one man.
The truth is, there is no sort Of
contract with the negro that can, un
der existing circumstancesssbe made
agreeable or profitable, and all that
the farmer can expect. is to hit upon
the least Objectionable mode, and
then try to make the most Of il.

Bincsthsk.e decisions Of tAs &C.
prsms Court, there seems to be .
growing confidence that the upliftsd
arm Of Consrsssiessl ssarpatien may
be arrested ere the fatal blow falls up.
ON the liberties Of the people. We do
not fully share this confidence, but
a hope 10 inspired by those decisions,
and is none the less cheering because
it GENES from source whence the
people least expected IL; and that
confidence j. strengthened by the
fact, that there is no appeal from the
decisions, except to the sword.
In times past, when even handed
justice was unobstucted by the inter-
vsp.ion Of martial law and military
commissions; when Congress recog-
nized the constitution as the supreme
law Of the land, and ssurpation was an
imaginary danger, the people were
prone to look upon the Executive
and Legislative Departments as the
sole agencies through which the gov
eminent was administered, and upon
the Judiciary, as occupying an un-
important place in asystem Of which
it should DO the central and control
ling power when ambition is defying
the constitution and the laws. II
may be that the Supreme Court, back
ed by the Executive, is impotent to
defeat the designs Of the Radicals,
and 10 save the government from
ruin; but its power is ample to warn
the country Of the impending danger,
to unmask the traitors and fasten
upon them, in advance, tho guilt Of
overstepping the limits Of Congress
sionsl authority, q mapped out by
the constitution.
But whatever may be The powers
Of the Judiciary, State and Federal,
It never before occupied so prominent
d
. position before the public, and nov.
er had SO fair an opportunity to dis.
play its authority and to win admi.
ration and gratitude as the great con
servator Of constitutional liberty
The advocates Of republican govern
ment and the victims Of oppression
are all looking anxiously to it for
security to the one, and relief to the
other. If this hope fail them, the
people must prepare themselves for a
quiet submission to despotism, or an
appeal to arms. Will the Courts
stand firm in defense of the constitu.
ton and the rights it confers3 OF
will they, like Congress, obey the
promptings of an unholy ambition,
and join in the cry-down with the
constitution! The earnestness with
which these questions are propounded
proves the depth of popular solici.
tude, and that the Judiciary is looked
to as the last stay and hope Of liberty
The President, with his veto, slightly
retarded the march of the traitors
but he has been Aanked and his pc,
sition carried by storm. In theil
first encounter. with the Judiciary
the traitors we're rspulsed, but they
are not defeated, and how and wher
the conflict will terminate, the wises
cannot foresee. But should it enc
in the overthrow of the government
we hope the Courts will be able t,
} say they discharged their whole dut,
in the effort to save it.
