The election in Tennessee takes place
next Thursday. Appearances indicate
that BrOwnlOw will prove the successful
candidate. In ordinary elections the
party in power have great advantages.
In the present case they may be said to
be complete masters of the situation
According to conservative paper pub
lished at Nashville, mo human agency
can secure the election of Etheridge."-
Brownlow and his minions have posses.
sion of the government, and they are
making it answer all their purposes
They know that large majority of the
people of the State are opposed to them
and if they cannot prevent this majority
from expressing its will in one way they
will resort to another, a speedier and
more effective way. The canvass is still
being conducted vigorously by both par.
ties. The most bitter feelings prevail
Riots and disturbances seem to be the
order the day. This state Of affairs
is, we have no doubt, being aggravated
daily. The election which, as we have
said, takes place next Thursday, may
bring repose, but as it will result in the
triumph of Brownlow that repose viii be
but temporary. The conservatives of
Tennessee will not tamely submit to the
yoke that BrOwnlOw is preparing for
them.

The radical central committee at Wash
ingtOn recently issued an address calling
for contributions to carry on the South
ern campaign. In this address after &C
counting for money heretofore cOntribu-
ted and sketching the plan Of operations
they have adopted they say.
The speediestmethod Of establishing a
vigorous Republican press, without
which no permanent success can be OBJ
tanned, is to give the Republican party
control Of the State organizations. This
object can be permanently secured; pro-
vided its Importance is appreciated and
corresponding efforts are made. The
present campaign is but a continuation
Of the war, but has, however, assumed
another shape. It no longer the shock
Of armies, but the conflict Of IDEAS
The thunder of guns no longer rends
the skies or makes the earth tremble;but
the result for which our best lives were
given are still trembling in the balance.
We contend for the principles for which
we fought. We seek power, because We
believe in our principles. They cannot
control unless money, the sinews Of any
struggle, is used to aid those who work
that success. Shall we lose an empire
from want Of this material add Shall
we, victorious in the field, be defeated at
the ballot-box. 1t is not possible.
The needs of the hour with those who
desire to see the entire South, lately
cursed with slavery and blasted by revo-
luton, marching "tO the music of the
Union" in the solid column of Republi-
can States, are active work, ample means
and unfaltering faith. Your committee
have faith and can work efficiently.
Means only are lacking to carry each
one Of the uurecOnstructed States at
the elections provided for by Congress.
If adequate funds are furnished, the par
| ty can be so organized as to ensure the
electoral vote Of each regenerated State
for the Presidential standard bearer of
our great party. The loyal people of
the South are very poor; they are with
us in every desire for success, but they
need assistance, both of money for pc.
litical organization, and of knowledge
for the best means of effecting it. Sla-
very crushed the white friends of the
nation as we'll as oppressed its cOlored al
lies. The rebellion impoverished them
as well as those who rebelled. Shall
we let them again be sacrificed for want
of means to send men to them or to en-
able them to help themselves

Negro suffrage In New York.


The New York Constitutional Con-
vsntiOn having adopted an amendment
extending suffrage to the negroes, the
question has come up before it whether
that amendment shall be voted on singly
or in connection with several other
amendments. There is no doubt the
Convention will decide in favor of the
latter course. A large majority Of the
people Of New York are opposed to ne
gro suffrage. This the Convention
which is nothing but a oOnolave, know
very wen, and it is therefore their policy
to so arrange the propositions which are
to be submitted for ratification as to pre-
vent a fair expression Of the will of the
people Of the State upon negro suffrage.
The New York World comments upon
the course which will probably be pur-
sued as follows: "The republican lead
ers in the Convention have their misgiv-
ings as to whether their whole party in
this State are even yet prepared to con-
fer the elective franchise upon all the ne
grOes and it is for this reason alone
that they dare not submit it as a sepa-
rate proposition. fit should be voted
down, as it very likely would be, it
would place the party in most unenvia-
bic predicament 1t would convict the
republicans of the North of deliberate
attempt to force upon the South change
which they will not tolerate at home" p
We will very soon see what record New
York will make upon this question. The
people of that State voted down negro
suffrage in go by an overwhelming ma
iOrity. 1t is obvious that no great
change of sentiment has taken place.

.IeG: Thompson.

This individual, as is known, has turn
ed radical. His course was pretty Sc
verely criticised few weeks since by
the editor Of the YazOO Banner. He
took occasion to reply through one of the
New York papers. Whether he made a
good defence or not it is useless to en-,
quire. It is certain, however, that the
style and temper of his letter is not cal
culated to produce a favorable impress
sion. Here is what Northern journal,
the Boston Post says oft:
Thompson begins by charging the un-
fortunate editor of the YazOO Banner
with the use of very disrespeotful Ian
guage toward his superiOrs. OF course
Thompson is one of the royal family
now. He has repudiated his old COM
rades and pardOned into full radical COM
munion. Of course no vile conservative
must be disrespeetful to one so much his
superior. But we question whether the
fact that the gallant General is so far
superior to the editor will warrant him in
calling the latter miserable, dirty dog
who published an eight-by-ten sheet dur
ing the war;" and to charge him with the
blood of A. s, johnson, as being zone
of the hounds that barked at Joseph E.
Johnston" and as responsible for the
downfall Of the Confederacy. Yet thus
the superior" addresses his critic, prom
Using to "teach him better manners"
when he returns South. Poor Thomp-
son He has intoxicated himself with
the gross wine of radicalism, until he re-
wives, and shouts, and threatens and
swaggers with the worst of them.

The agents Of Northern immigration
societies in Europe resort to all sorts Of
plans to influence emigrants in the selec-
ton Of homes. They tell them that the
North is a garden spot where every ad-
vantage is presented, where the soil is
rich, the climate healthy and every
branch of business is in the highest de-
gree prosperous. We do not find fault
with them for thus exaulting their sec
ton with a view of obtaining labor for the
societies which we have no doubt pay
them well. But at the same time they
embrace every opportunity to represent
the South in an unfavOrable light. To
their exertiOns in this direction is to be
attributed to a great extent the small
success which Southern agents have
heretofore met with and the indispOsi-
ton which prevails among foreigners to
seek homes in the South. Our mind
was called to this unfair, unjdst and VII
famous conduct of Northern agents in
Europe BY an item Of news which We
find in the New Orleans Picayune. 1t

TREATMENT Of Prisonern.

Butler made a statement in Congress
few days since positively denying that
the Confederate Commissioner of Elk
change, Mr.. Ould, had ever offered to
deliver to federal authorities a certain
number of sick and wounded prisoners
without equivalent. This statement has
brought out a card from Mr.. Ould, which
appears in Washington papers. In this
card Mr.. 0uld says "that in August,
1864, he offered to deliver to the federal
authorities from ten to fifteen thousand
sick and wounded prisoners, without
equivalent; that he urged the necessity
of haste in sending for them, as the NOR
tality among them was terrible and that
transportation was not sent to Savannah
the designated point, until December
In that long interval, he AYERS, occurred
= large proportion of the deaths which
excited so much horror among the peO-
pie of the North" Here then is a ques.
ton of veracity between Butler and
0uld. Candid men in both sections will
very readily determine it.
