anything that will be creditable to the War
rem County Fair; and thus evince your
appreciation of its objects, and your desire
for its success. OF course il is a known
fact that very many of you lost your most

THE ORGAN ON ALDEN AND HIS
CLANS.

The following article appeared in the
Press and Times of yesterday
A SwIEDLINa NoNIINAnoN.-The only
card which the Ring have to play is that
the nomination of Alden was regular, and
therefore must be supported. There is not
one word of truth in the assertion. Ii was
a secretly concocted fraud and cheat from
the start. From intelligent and respectable
Republicans who attended the various SO
called primary meetings, we learn that at
some of the meetings men were marched
in from the country in large numbers 10 SIT
as delegates, who do not live nor own pro-
perry in the corporation, and therefore have
no vote in city elections. At other meet
ings sentinels were placed at the door to
challenge all who presented themselves TO
tell whom they were for in the contest for
the Mayoralty. If they said that they
were Alden men they were admitted,
but if they preferred another per
son, or hesitated, they were told 10
80 away, that that was an Alden
meeting. These miserable affairs actually
appointed large majority of the delegates
One OF these meetings was held in the
State House, and the Supreme Court
chamber was desecrated for that purpose.
No Republican is bound to recognize such
base fraud upon the people. 1t had not the
hrst element of fairness in its management.
The RMS, argues thus "The nirvers don't
know the difference between an honest
and dishonest convention. We will make
them believe it is all regular. and thew will
run after ms like flock of Sheep Will
the colored men sell themselves 10 n second
slavery at the command Of such tricksters
or will they assert their manhood bv voting
for one who has been Republican for
thirty years? No honest man sbonld
countenance a ticket which was nominated
by a fraud and a swindle fixed mo bv

BLOWING HOT AND COLD.

The Prees and Times, in copying Gov
Brownlow's editorial "plain talk to our
Board of Aldermen, says, with refer
ence to the appointment of Judges and
Clerks by the City Council to hold the en-
suing municipal election ct is surpris-
ng that they took the course they did in
the premises This must have been
written by some verdant dHdche Of the
Office, for surely the editor of that paper
would not thus stultify himself After
stating that the law upon which the City
Council acted in making these appoint
ments as laid down in the city charter,
the editor of the Press and Times said
in his paper of the l4th instant ..
Are the foregoing provisions of the
charter still in force, or are they effected
and modified by the franchise act, so as to
require the appointment of Judges and
Clerks of municipal elections by the Com
missioner of Registration?
In the act of the General Assembly, in
cooperating the city of Chattanooga, passed
Nov. "A, 1866, the following clause occurs
in section IA:
Two Judges of election shall be appoint
ed by the Mayor which two shall choose a
third.
The 10th section Of the franchise act
passed Feb. 25th, 1867, says:
The Judges and Clerks of all elections
shall hereafter be selected and appointed
by the Commissioners of Registration in
each county, etc.
IL will be seen that an interesting judicial
question arises from this conflict between
the provisions of the city charter confer
ring the specific power on the Board of
Aldermen, and the provisions Of the fran
chIse act comforting, as it would seem, the
same power Of appointment on the Com
missioner of Registration.
In reference to the appointment of Judges
and Clerks Of municipal elections highly
important matter-there may be some
doubt whether the privilege granted BY the
city charter is repealed by the franchise
act, or whether the phrase AL elections" in
the franchise act applies to those elections
only which are not held under acts of
Incorporation
The Press and Times candidly ad-
United on the 18th inst that ian interest
ing Judicial question arises from this con-
fiict between the city charter and the
franchise law and that there may be
some doubt whether the privilege granted
by the city charter is repealed by the
franchise act and on the Goth inst the
same paper expresses surprise that the
City Council took the course they did
IN the premises That is allowing bot
and cold to perfection.

The REACTION COMMENCED IN THE
CITY PREss.-We understand that the
Radical organs in this city have lost one
third of their subscribers within the paA
three months. This falling off is in con-
sequence of the dissatisfaction of prudent
business men and intelligent, fair minded
citizens with the violent TRADES and bloody
revolutionary schemes of the extreme
Radicals, who are ready to plunge the
country into all sorts of dangers and diff
culties rather than lose possession of the
spoils of the government. 1t is an indica-
tion of the reaction that is going on all
over the Union, and that will soon appear
in Pennsylvania and New York, just the
same as it has been seen already in Cali
fornia and Maine.-Nel York Herald.

THE CONFLICTING PROCLAMA-
TIONQ

1t will be seen from our columns this
morning that Mayor Brown has issued a
proclamation in which he announces it
TO be the fixed purpose Of the corporate
authorities of Nashville to assert the
chartered rights of the people of the city,
and to persevere in the resolution here
tofore arrived at, to hold the approaching
municipal election under our charter.
This act is somewhat in conflict with the
views Of the Governor, as expressed in
his proclamation published yesterday
but the step has not been taken without
mature deliberation, and is based upon
the carefully prepared opinions of the
ablest legal men in the city. The issue
thus presented is. by the Mayor appropri-
ately referred to the judiciary for final
adjudication In the meantime he states
that no interference on the part of the
municipal authorities will be made to the
course Of the Commissioner of Registra-
hoh IA the performance VI MS dubAeS az
he may interpret them in the premises.
If the officers Of election appointed by
him choose to act, they can do so; and
the issue viii be relieved Of doubt and
embarrassment thereby The courts will
then only have to decide the questions of
law arising upon the facts, about which
there can then be no dispute.
Ii is neither the desire nor purpose of
the present municipal authorities to rebel
against the law, or to resist it in any form;
but primarily to ascertain, by resort to
competent authority through peaceful
means, what the law is, and then abide
by it. This we understand to be the en-
tire scope, effect and design of the May
ors proclamation; and we trust that the
editorial threat of the Knoxville Wig
may not change the issue from a peaceful
appeal, in a lawful manner, to the judi-
ciary, into contest Of physical force.
