The regular elections in Tennessee
will occur next August The canvass
is expected to be exciting It is
thought the Legislature now in ses-
sion will enfranchise the colored citi-
zens. A new feature of the campaign
will be the introduction of Northern
speakers. It is expected that Wade,
Sherman, Colfax, Logan, Kelley,
Bingham, Wilson, Boutwell,, Fred.
Douglass and others will be invited
to participate.
When Wendell Phillips applies the
lash, the halting members of Con
gress make haste to fall into line
The genuine radical programme is:
''No Union except one we can con-
troll; no moro States, except we make
their constitutions; no President,
except he be subservient to partisan
ends; no Supreme Court, except one
whose decisions we can dictate"

A leading member Of the Maryland
Legislature is reported to have said,
IN speech, a few days ago, that if

a Senate in which all the States were
represented, and if this was denied.
he would appeal to the army and
the navy. and the war would be car
r1cd into the Northern States.

Northern Relief.

ECntiIhS O1 IlCulS Ndit I'CGNACA, "o
fhe meeting held at the Cooper Insti-
tute, in The city of New York. 1T
afforded US pleasure then to uaote
and refer to the remarks Of Mr..
Greeley on the same occasion. We
ere again gratiiied to find that there
are some radicals whose hearts have
not been wholly burned to cinders
with the raging fires Of hate and ven
geance against the unfortunate poor
of the South.
We take the following paragraph
from Rochester IN. " paper.
which weunderatand is a rabid radical
sheet:
The distress in the South has
fallen chiefly on women and children,
the widows and orphans of those who
persisted III the war. Their condition
IS such that, without help from the
North, it is probable that many of
them will actually die of cold and
hunger We hope that help Will be
liberally afforded to every part of the
South where women and children are
starving. There is a movement on
foot to send relief to the destitute
Greeks of Gambia. But Greeks at
our door, our neighbors and our
countrymen, have the first claim upon
our charity. Immediate measures
should be taken for their relief before
anything is sent to strangcrcs, 5000
miles away.
With the Memphis Appeol, "a true
Southern Journal we honor the soul
Shat dictated these lines The South
<arn heart can be easily won by kind
ness, but never driven by force. The
people Of America, whether in the
represented or unrepresented States
of the original Union, are of the same
race, blood and kindred. They know
each other well, both in peace and in
war, and it is meet that they should
once more come together in friend
ship and unity, and stand by each
other III adversely rs well as in pros
2erity.
AS the -ipoe'd says, let our enlnity
&,e turned against 4 common enemy.
'Tms can be done only when these
rantlnS puritanical radicals will at
fend to their own business at home
and allow US to mark ont our own
path IN peace. In this way only can
EFe live happily together; but You
cannot win us back By threats and
insults. Give us kind words, like
those quoted above, and meet Us like
brethren. The -dppeal, in its com
ments, has the following good para
graph:
eve met you on the field and
never tiinched. We fought you a
fight such as the history Of the world
has never seen before, either for gal
1antry OF daring. Learn to honor us
for our courage, our perseverance,
and our devotion to any cause we
promise our faith to, and our glory
shall be your victory and your con-
quest our triumph. The victory of
one shall be the glory OF the other.
This can be done only when you al
low each State to rule itself, subject
to the restrictions Of the Constitu-
1lon, without any interference from
outside communities
To all of which we say amen.
And to this end let the newspapers Of
the North labor in the spirit of the
Rochester Democrat, radical though
1t be,) and other Journals that we
read daily, and the Union will be
speedily restored to unanimity, peace
and prosperity.

SOUTHERN CITIES REvIyISG.-Thc New
Orleans Picay1nc has tho following cheer
full paragraph:
I'VE arc now in the high tide of social
and fashionable life. We have a good
Italian opera company, a good French
dramatic company, German dramatic
company. and all the English theatres
the st. Charles, the Academy Of Music,
Olympic, Varieties, &c.-arc nightly crowd
ed. Rarely before has the Crescent City
been so gay and attractive. There are
numerous visitors here also, at the present
time, going and coming, but many more
prefer to stay and make this their home
so long az the money lasts. The beautiful
sprinS-time is fast opening upon us, with
sunny days ant. starry nights, and never
was the genial land Of Louisiana more
charming. If there be any who would vet
visit the Crescent City, to enjoy its gene
rous life and fairy scenes, VIC would say to
them, now is your time We have now the
prospect Of the Italian opera and standard
drama IN all languages the whole season
through, and society the most lively and
interesting, and You cannot fail to pass
your time pleasantly.
In our sister city Of Augusta, a commit
tee of citizens has been appointed, who
report that they are arranging for y series
Of lectures, and that they are encouraged
to believe they will have lectures from
General r. E. Bee, Bishop Lynch, w. Gil
more Simms and other celebrities. Can
not something be done in this way for Co
lumbia? or have we lost all our public
spirit and energy with the destruction of
the city by Sherman's army? Let us try,
and we have no doubt but that success will
attend the effort. A lecture from General
Lee to be delivered in Columbia, would
attract such an audience as never before
graced any public hall in the city-Eve-
rett's, on Washington, not excepted.

RADICAL MONEY COMING, Sorrn. =
The New York Post, in commenting
upon the politics of Tennessee says:
Tennessee is far away from us. Our
people are not familiar with all the
details of the struggle for political
ascendancy which has been going on
there. But it is necessary that we
should take a lively interest in it.
Money is needed there for the loyal
press, which are vigorously and ably
conducted; our ablest and most effect
i've public speakers should go down
there to address the people; North
ern journals and documents should
be sent down there to all who will
read; in short, it is the duty, as it is
the interest, Of the Republican party
to make Tennessee, during this win
ter, spring and summer, the intel
lectual battle-ground on which, with
voice and pen, we may assert and
maintain the ideas which must pre-
vail over the greatest part of this
country before we can have q real
peace, and which are there the direct
issues in the political canvass. In
Tennessee we have an opportunity to
assert republican principles before
the Southern people by our ablest
speakers and writer's. We trust the
energies of the Republican organiza-
ton will be turned in that direction,
and that between now and next Au-
gust the State will be as thoroughly
canvassed by Northern men as any
one Of the Northern States was dur
ing the last summer and fall.
