The MISUNDERSTANDING Con.
VentiOn a Failure.

We regret to state that the Convention,
which assembled in this place on Friday last,
was a failure. Notwithstanding delegates
were here from all but one cOunty-Hancock,
who were anxious to go into a nomination.
The Committee appointed by the President,
Col. JoHS X, MILLER, for the purpose ofagree-
ing upon a basis of representation in the
Convention, went into secret session for sew
eral hours, but finally adjourned without
coming to any definite conclusion, and thus
the end for which they convened was de-
feated.
As matters now stand, Mr.. Owens, Maj.
Smith, and Rev. Mr.. GillenwaterS are upon
the track rs candidates for the Judgeship,
Me-. Howard having, in n public speech be-
fore the Convention on Friday, declined run
ming through the canvass. We regret eX-
ceedingly that some understanding was no!
arrived at by the Committee by which but
one Radical candidate would have had the
traek-but as it is, we presume we will
have o "short, sharp contest p and according
to the Old saying, in vulgar parlance-"the
longest pole will knock the p~evsimmons."-
Therefore, ye who crave the judicial ermins,

Letter from Ohio.
DRLAwARE Ohio, Sept. 26th, l

DELAWARE Ohio, Sept. 26th, 1867.
Dear Captain IL am becoming more and
more convinced every day I mingle with this
people that there was not that amount of
pure devotion to the government that there
was among the masses Of our people in East
Tennessee, and am fully satisfied, that if a
large majority of them had been tried by the
same tests that we were, that their patriotism
would have given way under the pressure,
and they would have suffered themselves to
be borne away in the great tide Of rebellion,
and | am becoming more and more convinced
every day that what was once the great INA
tionAl Democratic Party" is now the most
corrupt aud reasonable organization that
ever existed in any government, and that its
leaders are possessed Of the same determined
purpose that actuated them in the beginning
Of the rebellion-to rule the government or
undermine its pillars and involve the whole
fabric in one common ruin. Yallandigham,
whose conduct during the war, we had
thought would have stamped his name with
eternal infamy, and brought down upon him
the execratiOn of every man North of Mason
and DiIOn's line, is now the lion Of this same
corrupt Democratic party, and is doing
more than any other man to stir up discou-
tent and strife, and II possible, to thwart the
purposes Of our loyal Congress to permanent
ly reconstruct the dislOyal States.
A great hue and cry is being raised by the
VallNndigham disciples about our national
debt, and 1t is proposed by them that our
government shall Immediately issue a sufi-
cient amount of "greenbacks" to liquidate the
entire debt at once. Now it does not re-
quire any great financial ability to see what
would be the result Of such a %ruinous and
reckless policy, and we can attach but one
motive to them in their advocacy of this
scheme, and that is, having failed to destroy
the government by the rebellion, they now
desire to see it sunk into a hopeless financial
ruin. The doctrines involved in this scheme
are In direct conflict with Democratic teach
ings, and give the lie to the main idea upon
which that party has been harping for the
last half century.
The proposed amendment to the Ohio State
Constitution giving negro suffrage is not like
" to carry on tie 9Th day of October next.
1t ia a matter Of serious regret that the Re-
publican party here do not seem fully arous-
ed to the Importance Of this great measure,
and the FIVE or six thousand intelligent ne
groes ia Ohio, many of whom fought brave
ly in our armies, seem destined to be de-
prived foi many years to come, Of those pc.
litical privileges that their less enlightened
and probably less worthy brethren are now
enjoying in Tennessee. YIAToR.

among the Oldest, this one by tho en-
orgy and business ability which has
characterized it, has become the au-
thorized agent of nearly every news-
paper printed in the English language
in North America, and the amount of
their transactions exceeds the combin-
ed business of many of the older but
less enterprising establishments.
AT their Office may be found on file
newspapers from every section, from
Maine to California, and from their
books can be learned the rates for
subscription and advertising.
The distance of advertisers from
the newspaper publishers, as a gener-
al thing, renders it difficult for the
latter to be correctly informed of the
financial reliability of their customers,
and therefore they usually prefer to
receive their favors through some re-
liable advertising agency, which, in
consideration of the commission al
lowed assumes all risk of payment,
and does away with the trouble and
expense of collecting individual &C.

1t is now something like thirty years

Advertising Agency in this country,
At that time there were scarcely Eight
hundred periodicals of all descriptions

Agencies been established in every

q great assistance to the newspaper

It is estimated that at tho present
time there are several hundred men
who make this their business, bat Of

To the Honorable Members Elect to
the House of Representatives Of
the Tennessee Legislature.

JoNEsBoRo', Tenn, August 18th, 1861.
This is to certify that we are personally
acquainted with CAPT. GEO. Z. GRESHAM, he
having been born and reared in our midst.
He has been a firm and unwavering Unionist
from the very inception of the rebellion, de-
voting the energies of his pen and sword to
its complete annihilatiCn. Living under the
ban of the Confederate Despoti.m up to 1862
he never despaired of the triumph of the
Union, nor was his faith in the justice of its
cause ever shaken by the temporary success
of its enemies. Captain Grisham bid adieu
to his family, bnckled on the armor of war,
and marched to the rescue of his imperiled
country. Entering the 9Th Regiment Of Ten
nessee Cavalry, be exhibited the qualities of
the brave anu noble soldier upon many Of
the historic battle-ields of East Tennessee.
After his return from the Army he establish
ed the &c East Tennessee Union Fdg". which
has battled m~anfully for the cause of Loyal
ty and Justice, in opposition to the baneful
and destructive policy of the Conservative
party.
We take pleasure in recommending Captain
Grisham to the members of the incoming
Legislature as everyday worthy Of their sup
port, and can assure them that by electing
him to the position Of Clerk Of the House,
they will simply reward merit.

capt. Grisbam imbibed from his parents
hetred Of the institution Of Slavery He

not an element Of bis nature which would
not revolt at the idea Of sanctioning the
Shareholders rebellion. When the war COM
