adopt the language of the Clarion,
which, in speaking of the Doctor,
says:

entitle him to the confidence and patronage
of a discriminating public. We have seen
his work tested by many years OF nara wear
and during Confederate times our rations
were particularly severe on our dental or

pain are numerous, and the ease with which
he gets ont troublesome tangs is astonishing
The artificial teeth supplied by DR.. X. are

to his residence, and persons from a

until their work is finished; rhich
as good hotels are now scarce in Jack

coon ADVICE

The New York Evening Poet RADICAL
concludes an article on the troubles al
Nashville 10 the following manner
The bitter feeling In Tennessee is IN.
fortuDste. though not unnatural. IL the
republicans there are wise, they will
make haste to restore the suffrage to the
whites now excluded. They have held
one quiet election under their chosen
suffrage law; they have asserted and
vindicated their position and they can
DOW afford TO give up their proscriptive
policy.
Indeed, in u opinion, they cannot
afford 70 continue II. They have enfran-
chised the blacks, they possess the con-
troll Of the stEte they will not deserve
to keep il IL they have not courage and
craftsmanship enough to take in sll the
prescribed whites.
This is sound advice. It Is the counsel
Of safety, Of peace s1d Of wisdom. But
the followers Of the BRowNLOw-negra
rule have neither the " courage" or the
" craftsmanship" TO follow it. Negro
suffrage would be comparatively HARM
less in our State, II the intelligent and
honest white men Of the country could
vote. The dangers that would be
thus avoided need not be pointed
out. They are patent 10 any
who will think. The pressure now
brought 4 bear upon the people is
tremendous. Never were 4 people, born
10 freedom, so insulted, taxed without
their consent and outraged in every form.
Statesmen do not seek safety, do not look
for order and peace in such rule. The
Evening Post points out away to avoid
the evils OF the inevitable future. 1t Is
the only remedy, and We trust that those
who hold the reins will have the good
sense 70 adopt it.

The New York Tines thus ~discourses,
under the head Of minor Items"
There seems 70 be far more dread In
the north Of " negro supremacy" In the
southern states than there is among the
whites Of the south itself. The southern
people, IN fact, appear resigned TO what.
ever may be their fortunes IN q way that
IS really marvellous. Their submission
10 the power Of the north and the legis-
lation Of congress is absolute, and no de.
velopments whatever have any influence
in ~ar0using them to anything like active
political opposition. Tennessee is the
only one Of the rebel states where we
observe signs al political feeling, and
there il is very bitter; but Tennessee Is
not on the same footing A. the states that
lie south OF il. 1t lie by no means de.
Eirable, 10 q republican government like
ours. that this lethargic condition Of so
large q proportion Of the population
should become permanent.
The Tines may regard these sugge
tons ss "minor, - but it seems to US
they are the ideEs which are destined
before sixty days more to explode the
entire Radical party. The dread Of
" negro supremacy" In the North Is the
most bealthful sign we have witnessed
for many days. Il IS a real evil which
threatens the country with absolute de-
Htruction, and the people o. the North
will be happy II they take counsel Of
their spprehensioDs in time, and
avoid the breakers. The "lethRr-
sic condition Of so large 8
proportion Of the population" in the
6onth has been s~uperinduced by
the belief that the North Is hopelessly
wedded to negro theories. But If the
Eorfh will indicate q determination to
raverse the order Of things, this "lethRr-
rie condition " will instantly disappear,
- there win be witnessed such .
