The Great Convention.

There has never been Convention Of
the people of Tennessee of more vital i'm
portance than that which will assemble at
Nashville ON the ed of this month. 10 q
great extent, the result of the State election,
on the first Thursday of August, depends
upon the character of the I'D of February
meeting. And on the result of the election
depends the salvation of the loyal men OF
the State.
1t is obvious that the nomination OF can
didate for Governor to succeed the present
incumbent will fall upon the present State
Executive The people have too generally
and unequivoeally expressed their viii upon
this subject to leave room for reasonable
doubt. Yet it is of the utmost Importance
that there be full attendance of delegates
from East Tennessee at the approaching
State Convention. More largely loyal than
the other divisions of the State, and, on
that account, more hated by the disloyal OF
all portions, her active influence, IN MEM
BERs at the Convention, and in thorough,
energetic effort during the canvass, is vital
to the keeping Of the State Government in
loyal hands. As before and during the war,
East Tennessee formed break-water
against the rising tide of rebellion, materi-
ally fastening its subjugation, and as since
the war of artillery ceased, she has proved
the strong and reliable support of the pres
ent loyal State Government, sonow, if East
Tennessee falters in purpose and in ACTION,
the State will pass into rebel hands. In such
an event, while she would be more culpa-
BILE than the other divisions of the State
her loyal citizens would suffer more perse-
cution and cruelty than those elsewhere
Fellow-citizens our enemies mean to ouer.
throaC the present State Government. Only
by prompt, thorough, united purpose and
endeavor can you prevent it. Let there be
no laek:of delegates at Nashville on the ap
preaching I'D.

time during his legislative career Mr.. Rogers de-
hvered speech in his place in the General Assem-

tive franchise 70 AL LOYAL men of the State,
irrespective Of color. The ability Of Mr. r s speech
has been the admiring theme Of loyal men and has
exsOrted praise from the johnson dislOyalists.
We CHANGED to be in the hall Of tho House Of
Representatives when this speech was delivered, and
frequently heard inquiries made as 10 who Is this

CONSERVATIVE Candidate for congress.

John Orozier Ramsey, and other leaders Of the
Conservative party of this city, have as we under
stand, applied TO Ned Livingston TO run for Con
gress in this District pledging him their enthuaias.
tic support Livingston is an honest sensible col
ored man, Of good morals and steadfast loyslty.
That he would degrade himself by acting as the
leader of the Conservative party We nave no idea
On the other hand, we sre sire he will vote the
Radical Union ticket.
We cannot however, refrain from expressing our
qualification that the Conservatives wish to vote fol
this colored man. We hail It IS an auspiciou,
omen.
We regard it as proof that the morale of that
party is to be better than II has been As the un.
successful opponent Of Horace Maynard for Con.
gress in 1859, Gro Ramsey received the votes OF the
majority Of these now calling themselves Ccnser-
vstives.
Fer these men aOs0 to vote for respectable col
Ored man like Ned Livingston would be evidence
that they wiser, more patriotic and upright in
their intentions than Radicals hare supposed.
In every Apecs Of the case Livingston is better
qualified for seat in the National Legislature than
Ramsey. Livingston has more talents than Ram
sey. Livingston is now and has always beena 10y
a man Ramsey is a perjured traitor. Livingstcns
morals are good Ramsey's are worse than Andy
JOhnaOns or John MOrrissey's. Livingston is re-
lined and geEtlenanly in his department. Ramrey
Is neither.
II tho CONSERVATIVES all over the country would
vote for respectable coloFed men for Csnzres. ana
other oces instead Of their 5Ohnsohs, Morris.e !.
AeDoagAlls, Salisbury and the like shers would
be less corruption in high places and less reason 10
despair Of the Republic
The Radicals intend 70 support Tor Cpngrsss and
other Offices men Of the Anglo-Saxon race If inv
are cefeaied, il win be consolasscn 10 them 10
know that thelr onies holders are decent rsspacsA
Die loyal olsek men, And not dIsrepaaAble dsshoa-
est periured white traitors.

only sixty miles from Knoxville we clip the fol.
lowing
What has become of the Knoxville Commercial
and the Messenger We have not seen q copy Of
either for the list month. The WHIe is The only
paper that receive from the capitol of East Ten
nessee Is it the only paper published in that city
now?
Athens contains more supporters Of the Johnson
Conservative party than almost any town in East
TENNESSEE population considered, and as it is only
sixty miles from this city by rail- and almost daily,
through its citizens, in communication with Knox
VILE il is ts surprising the people of that place
not aware that the Conservatives have an organ
in the capitol of East Tennessee We knew
that the mass Of the people Of East Tennessee had
not seen, since the war, any Knoxville papers ex-
cept the WEro but we supposed the Conservative
journals Of thss city had found their way to the
heighboring towns on the Railroad.

WASHINGTON County.

A few days since We received business letter
from the heroic and loyal county Of Washington,
from which we take the following closing sentence
Everybody is IN favor Of NEGRO SUFFRAGE and
the MILITIA BILL in our county, except rebels and
their sympathizers"
Brownlow's Knoxville Whig. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1866-1869, 1867-02-13
NEGRO sUFFAaE.
The Bill Passes in the House OF KEEP
resentafiycs on the Third Reading.
All Hail Loyal Legislators ofthe House

God bless and protect he loyal members Of the
Tennessee House of representatives.. On the 9th
inst. they passed Ii bill enfranchising ALL loyal
man in the State regardless of color act of JUS
rIcE by which the black man has been resoredt the
rights Of which be was robbed in 1884, an act which
preserves Tennessee in perpetuity 70 the govern
ment of LOYAL men, and crowns with an imperish-
able wreath of glory the brave and patriotic Legis-
lator
That this noble act should be consum mated Is ous
the inevitable, legitimate fruit Of the popular re-
fern of the age. Such reforms never go backwards
The courseof principles founded in justice and truth
is ever onward and upward.
When the shackles were knocked from the fet-
tered slave, BIZ the ARTILLERY Of REBELLION, he com
menced rising to the dignity and stature of MAN
and his enfranchisement inevitably followed.
ono decree that God e,er gave,
But rests in Truth and Right,
And cannot make a MAN a slave,
Be that man black or white.
Henceforth the way viii be open for the long and
cruelty oppressed negro to rise in the scale Of chris
tian civilization and manhood, and the people o
East Tennessee will ever say amen.
