Martial Law.

1t has been suggested, and the sugges-
ton appears good one to US at first sight,
that several regiments be enlisted for State
service, of colored men who have been
driven of to starve by their rebel employ
ers because they voted the Republican tick
ct. Troops are generally needed in some of
the counties of West Tennessee, and sew
eral regiments of discharged negroes, COM
posed of soldiers, selected for their good
habits and physical strength, could be
raised in a short time in those localities
and placed on duty Immediately. The
rebels would be punished and many of the
discharged negroes would be personally
provided for, besides being enrolled to pro-
tect their friends from rebel persecution
A few days of martial law rigidly enforced
would cause a great change in the tactics
of the proscriptionists. Let the expense of
feeding and providing for these troops be
levied upon the persons who have turned
aft thousands of men to starve.-PTess
and Times,
If you really want war in Tennessee,
this IS the pohcy that VIII surely Drlng 1t
about. We imagined that the recent mis-
cradle farce called an election was to secure
at least temporary tranquility, but there is
no answering for what would be the result
of ga few days Of martial law" A point
has been reached. beyond which, the clique
al the Capitol may well hesitate to 60. All
that we venture to say at present is, may
God have mercy on their perjured souls if
they test the patience Of an already despe
perate people.-BaRaer.

Knoxville, August 3, 1867.-GovernoF
Brownlow in a speech tonight said that
his majority in the State would be over
forty thousand, and that he proposed to
bury the Rebel party in coffin with both
ends open, SO that when the devil went IN
at one end, they could go out at the other,
No promises had been made by him or
his friends as to how long he should be
Governor. The constitution did not fix
the time, and as he was called a desPot be
would be one, and be Governor for ten
years, to show what he might do.
GOV. Brownlow to-day, in conversation
with prominent citizen, made the remark
able assertion that in his 6rst message to
the Legislature he would recommend that
every male citizen over twenty one years
old should be allowed to vote. Some such
policy as this will probably be the result Of
the overwhelming victory. The disfran-
ohised accept the situation Cor. Ci'eia-

complied with the request of the Yankees
to spare the flibustero and his associate

Of the detested "Gringos.'' This country
belongs to God and US, and just so long as
one foreigner remains on our soil, our lib

our power we should make the country
Mexican and as all the property in the
hands of foreigners was made by our mis-

we are in earnest, and the time will come
when their notables will be begging for

Austrian.
In our struggles for liberty, we have
lost nearly all. Our lands. and our mines,

WAsHINGToN, August Gas already
stated, the President yesterday addressed a
note to the Secretary of War, saying his
resignation would be accepted. This note
was, it is reported, based on the ground of
public consideration of high character. It
is understood tonight chat Secretary Stan
ton has declined to resign, saying that for
similar reasons he will continue in that po-
sItIon till the ensuing meeting Of Congress.
There is no doubt this is the purpOrt Of the
response. Stanton was nol at the Cabinet

The following circular has just been re-
ceived at Gen. Carlin's headquarters.
CIRCULAR No. 26 F.: It is believed that
the extreme restitution, heretofore prevail
ing in the Southern States, has in a great
measure ceased to exist, and that the pro-
visions for its relief already made under
the joint resolution of Congress, approved
March, 1867, will be sufficient to prevent
suffering or extreme want. In accordance
with instructions from the Secretary of
War, Assistant Commissioners viii be pre-
pared to suspend the issue of supplies un-
der the act of Congress above referred TO-,
90 the goth Of August.
The issue of rations to sick in regularly
organized hospitals, and to the orphan asy-
lums for refugees and freedmen, may be
continued for the present. Such supplies
will be obtained from the Subsistence De-
partment, in the manner provided for by
the circular letter from the Commissary
General of Subsistence, dated November
10, 1866. o. o. HOWARD,

If there be, outside of the Radical party,
one class of men which is doing more than
another to perpetuate the rule of Radical
ism in the general government and to en-
sure the naturalization of the Southern
States, it is that class at the South which
obeying the instincts of passion and preju-
dice, seeks to infame the minds of the peo-
pie, and to induce them to continue the
sectional strife that has already brought
ruin to our very doors.
In 1860, Stephen A. Douglas declared
Northern abolitionists and Southern fire
eaters to be as the blades pair of scis-
sors. Time has shown how apt the Illus
tration was, and, indeed, is showing how
apt it is. The two parties, representing
extremes, contribute to one another's
strength" Thus speaks an able ootempo-
rary, and truly does it speak.

Mr.. EDITOR The writer Of this is op-
posed to fulsome eulogies. He is also
afraid of fattering life, but word of en-
couragement ftly spoken, has often done
good in calling forth the brightest talents,
and urging on those who have started in
the way of the good and great Please,
therefore, permit me to exPress, through
the columns of your paper, my delight
and the pleasure of this community, in
hearing the addresses of Messrs. Gordon
aud Jones, at -Shoal Greek Academy on
the 31st ult.
After tho students of said school had de-
livered their addresses, Mr.. Geo. Gordon,
of Bethel Academy, youth, scarcely ar
rived at the age of manhood, on invitation,
came forward and delivered one of the
mosdbeautiful, eloquent, and appropriate
addresses to which we have ever had the
pleasure of listening, from one of his age.
At the conclusion of his speech, Mr.. Char
les Jones, of Pulaski, who has just FIN
ished the study of his profession, being
| called for, took the stand, and for the space
Of half an hour, held the delighted au-
dience spell bound by an eloquent appeal
! to the young men of the institution to pro-
secute their their studies and strive for the
highest degree of excellence, attainable by
man. After pointing them to the brightest
examples in the literary world, and urging
them to initiate their course, he told them
that, "Nihil sine lahore, was the motto of
all good and great men. To say that we
were deeply impressed with the truth of
his remarks and delighted with the OratOry
display, is not enough. We were enrap-
tured. Our down-trodden countrymen
need not despair when such talent can
spring forth in so short time, from her

Mr.. EDITOR There seems at present

pie to eachew the negro.

in the breast of man one law which even

in it's learning. know how to repeal, viz:
the law Of self preservation. Let us ap-
peal TO it. There is another principle in
man which however just and wise in its le-
gitimato exercise. often when abused leads
US astray. That is The disposition to for
get and forgive. We are too apt to forget
to carry out the dictates of our judgment
and TO execute the conclusions of delibera-
tons when the injury has been forgiven.
This is a perversion of that divine in
junction, and the law Of self preservation
was given US to correct that fatal tendency.

already made with the negro and then let
him slide

Prescription.


The editor of the Press and Times
threatens to publish the names of certain
persons, who have dicharged servants be-
cause they voted for BrownlOw. We hope
he will have many thousands of names to
publish. The native white men of Tennes-
see have submitted to Acknowledgement, be-
cause it was brought about by the forms Of
law. Now. it seems they are to be enslav-
ed, they shall give food and wages to any
negro who happens to be in their employ
ment at this time. To deprive a man of
the right to choose his own laborer, is sla-
very as complete as to deprive him of the
right to select his employer. 1t seems
therefore that these vile Radicals are not
opposed to slavery; they ere ready enough
to enslave the white race when it suits
their purposes. They are utterly desti
tute of principle. They would not hest
tate to-day to re-enslaYe the negro if they
could make money thereby. For the sake
of office and public plumber, they are ar
raging the negro against the white man,
knowing we'll that they are engendering a
feud which will inevitably lead to a war of
races, resulting most certainly in the des-
tructon of the negro. But they do not
care. A prominent Ranical, we'll known in
