The duty Of the people Of States sub
ject to Radical control is clear There
should be no hesitation; and there is no
evidence that there will be any. The
conditions rendered will be accepted, and
under these, a contest made for political
supremacy. II the expectations of the
party which has imposed these conditions
should not be realized, ,they may, in the
mad exercise Of power, attempt to set
aside the action Of the people Congress,
and its military satraps, may disperse the
conventions of the "ten" Southern States,
and the State government Of Tennessee
may annul and override the result of the
elections in this State. But notwithstand
ing all this is possible and probable, it
does not affect the question of duty.
The paramount duty is 10 use every effort
to defeat Radicalism. Every excess to
which that party is driven, shortens its
lease Of power There is limit to every
thing, and the Jacobins will exhaust the
patience of the people after while, and
find that they have tempted fate to their
destruction.

ACCORDING to the Washington cores
pondent of the Boston Courier, Butler is
more persecuted out of the House than in

scrubbed on the walls of hotels and public
buildings. He boarded at the Kirkwrod

was closed by landlords creditors, story
was started that the hotel was shut up be-
cause one of the boarders had stolen all

Captain Asa Hays, better known as
"Black Hawk" who commanded a COM

speech in Lexington last Monday, in which
he declared himself opposed to Brownlow

He thought it all wrong TO exclude man

TIE RELATIONS OF THE SOUTH TO PAR
TIEs.-Upon this subject, the Charleston
Mercury holds the following language;
Oar true course, it appears to us, is to
have no identification with any party at the
North, in our present condition. We are
not States, practically; much less are we
States in the Union of the United States.
1t is hardly less than absurd, therefore, to
propose that we should join any party in
the North TO carry on the government of
the United States. But we can have a
policy; and that policy ought to be to sup
port, as far as we can, all men of all parties
who support the constitution Of the United
States. This should be the grand test of
our utilization. A great Conservative party
ought to arise, combining all the elements
of opposition to the destructiyes, who are
driving the whole country TO ruin and
despotism.

Many of the Young ladies of that city will

at one of their fashionable uptown board

accumulated his vast wealth by filling large
government contracts during the war, he
being engaged in the pork packing bust
