Trouble Exnecfed in Knoxville.

The opinion is freely expressed that we
are to have riot here the night before the
election. Was not this the wish and pur-
pose of those who arranged for the Ethe-
ridge demonstration on the night before the
election? Do they not wish a conflict be
tween the white rebels and colored loyal
lists, so as to make good their prediction of
a war Of races2 If the radical procession
is fired upon, there will be trouble as GER
tainIy as we live And wo to the house
from which any Radical Union man may
be shot But this can all be prevented, and
will be if leading men do their duty. The
Governor has taken the proper steps to Sc
cure order, as the following documents will
show, published i'm the order in which they
were written. The address to the Colored
League was read on Friday night to four
hundred members, and heartily endorsed

ROgersVIIIe and Knoxville Assassins.

Energetic investigation is being made into the afro
cioa Conservative assaults at RogersviIla and Knox
vie on the devoted coored Ioyalists he parties who
made the attacks in both of these places known
They viii be vigorously prosecuted in the Courts and if
the jures of these loyal counties fail to send them to the
gall0ws and penitentisry are mistaken.
Every internal, cowardy scOundrel who participated
IN these riots is h'Os'n to the loyal of Hawkins and
Knox counties. If, meanwhile before these assassins
are tried BY the Courts there should be recurrence Of
these attacks upon TIE loyal blacks OF whites of Rogers
vile and Knoxville, be- the assassns and would
bssssassins of the late riots Should these murders and
attempted murders be repeated in these towns the loyal

rebel army against nay remonstrance was
captured, and at the war department in
1868 procured his release.
1t is q LIE that / aided my son without
" coercion" or otherwise for an outfit to
join the rebel army He acted on his own
responsibility. l repeat l opposed it, and
was threatened with arrest for doing so by
rebels.
It is LIE that J. NJ. Alexander, then II
years old, had any sympathy for rebels
1t is a LIE that his young infatuated rebel
brother advised him not to join the rebel
army at Sweetwater; but he advised his
rebel brother with my consent) to cross the
mountains,
1t is a LIE that he bought stock to aid
rebels, but traded to support helpless
mother and little sisters, who had been mob
bed, and their mother stricken down with
violence by rebel soldiers, their house taken
by rebel authority and they forced away as
refugees.
1t is rebel LIE that he aided, connived
or sympathized at the abuse of Esquire
Watkins. 1t was done by rebels He was
eight miles distant, in bed at home. It was
an sold Soldiers" party aided in the deed.
Col Baxter and Judge Brown will testify
that the grand jury of Monroe county ig-
nored the charge, kicked it out of their
room and presence. 1t is too pusillanimous
to pursue further.
The charge is a pitiful one, thatcompany

rebels. A majority served in the Federal ar

were, they are right now, and will force the
compounded party of treason to nibble

On page l25 of the report of the Reconstruction
Committee, John Williams is made to figure on the
18th of February, 1866, Intercepted by Mr. Bing-
ham, of Ohio. He was asked if the rebels were dis
posed to take possession of the government of Ten
nessee if they had the chance? He answered thew
were if allowed to vote as they were in the ma
jority.
Now, Col Williams advocates the. enfranchise-
ment Of the rebels, and of course he desires that
they shall get the control of the State for he gears
that if allowed to vote they will carry the day. be-

The statement of an "Old Soldier" in the

in some of the former elections, and will
