Bey- Willis Kentucky contributed a
hundred thousand men to the Federal
army, and has not now ten thousand men
within her borders who participated in
the rebellion, there are those who pro-
pose to place that State under martial
law on the ground of disloyalty Has
she done anything but to select good and
true men for the Management of her own
affairs2 Is il crime to elect Demo
crat instead Of a Radical or niggerf Is
there an honest man on earth who can

a single plausible reason exists for pro-
claiming martial law in Kentucky The

salubriousness Of our climate, and the
countless Inducements TO settling
among us-all this done and re-
peatea bundled times, will
accomplish merely nothing. The same
expedients resorted to in innumerable
instances heretofore teach us this. A
more practical aud vigorous plan OF
operations must be adopted. Every
association formed in Tennessee should
have its own agent or agents in New
York and when the emigrant ship ar
rives in port It should be their purpose
to address the emigrant in person, to
take him by the hand when he first places
his foot upon the shore, and then and
there make such representations and
arguments as may convince him that he
will be welcomed among us, and that 1t
WILDE to his interest to come. Let him
be told, il necessary, that his fare to his
new home will be paid. And when he
has arrived, let our planters and land
owners present him in fee simple with a
fraction Of their broad areas, which they
never could miss only as the tax collector
came round, while with its new tenant 1t
would soon be converted into a garden
spot, and proportionately increase the
value of surrounding lands. This method
of proceeding we believe to be highly
practicable, and by no other means can
the tide Of emigration be turned from a
western to a southern channel. The
expense of keeping up and operating
such a system would be a mere tribe
compared with the benefits which would
necessarily accrue in the development OF
our dormant resources and the revolu-
tionizipg Of our lamentable political con-
dition. The funds often but vainly
lavished by aspirants for office and for
party purposes in the conduct of a single
cam paign would more than defray the
cost of the experiment, should 1t result
in but an experiment, and, after thor
ough trial, be abandoned. To those who,
in Memphis and elsewhere, have mooted
the important subject of elevating the
morale as well as the physical of South
ern labor, we throw out these sugges'
tons, regarding their adoption as indis-
pensable to success.

R6S- Ia the late election we preferred
the choice of Etheridge to Brownlow, as
all other white men did. If we could
have had Etheridge and return to good
order and constitutional government, it
would have been great gain, indeed.
But, as compared with the condition be-
fore the election, we do not see that we
are particularly worse off And we are
far from certain, that, if Etheridge had
been elected, Brownlow would not have
been installed. If Congress enforces
Radical rule in Mississippi, Alabama
and Georgia, we may well doubt whether
Conservative rule would have been per-
mitted in Tennessee, especially when
Kentucky is threatened with msriial law
for the very same thing. Congress is
supreme. We have rump parliament
without Cromwell We must look to
the parliament for protection. That
government which is best administered
is best" What property is to be worth,
or what to be the extent Of our prosperity
will depend more on the administration
than on the denomination ofthe govern
ment under which we live. A good
Radical government, if such thing
we're possible under the sun, would be
better than bad Conservative one

r@The Republican Banner states
that Mr.. Etheridge offered, on the stump,
10 prove that BrownlOw, while editor Of
the Knoxville Whig, was ready to join
the Confederate side. He asked the re-
moval, BY Brownlow, of the injunction Of
seeresy from certain letters to General
Polk and DR.. Jeptba Fowlkes, but II was
no, granted. Why need the socalled
Governor fear2 If you should prove it

They were al on the Confederate side
at FIRST; and never one Of them deserted
their friends until their knees trembled,
and they thought The Federal the safer
side OF the fence. Then they al deserted.
Brounlow was Drawer than the rest and
incapable Of dessrtion, and We think the
publication Of the letters would rather
help him. For they might show that

Leaving out of the calculation the
