Antiquity of Brandreth's Pills.

Aee is not claimed as a merit, only as q sign Of
intrinsic worth.
The really useful article lives on with q strong
vitality; the poor one languishes for time and
then goes out easily.
Brandrsth's Pills are even prescribed By great
physicians when the bowels call loudly for help,
because they never fail to open and give relief.
Hundreds of thousands would consider il q
calamity if these safe family Pills could not be
obtained. 1t has been officially settled that more
Of Brandreth's Pills are sold than all other pills
put together. Merit sells them. -
Brandreth's Pills possess qualities which re-
store every organ and fbre of the body to health;
are purely vegetable and safe for every period of
life. -r

The New York Tribune, with its com
bined ability and unscrupulousness,
charges that reputation is rapidly be-
coming part Of the Democratic creed
and that every element Of its policy,
excepting Reputation, may be resolved
into hatred of the negro" The same
thought has been continually iierated
and reiterated by the Radical press OF
the South, and has had a powerful effect
to deceive and control the freedmen
vote. But the charge il deliberately and
basely false.
1t may be true that there is a natural
antagonism Of races Every black man
as we'll as every white man feels that
And no more do black men seek CON-
partnership, social communion, and Ia

the farmers. The country is, beyond
dispute, in an infinitely worse condition
to-day than at the time Of Gen. Lees sur
render. The furnishing Of seed to the
farmer can alone avert great calamity
that must be apparent to the most super
fetal observer. A very large majority
of our people live by agricultural pug
suits II the country be ruined the city
will share like fate. The last annual
report Of the Chamber Of Commerce
shows that for the year ending August,
1867, no less than 52,si5 barrels Of
potatoes were received at Memphis,
which, at four dollars per barrel,
would cost s2l5,3s0. During the same
time $4,000 sacks Of oats we're
received. Allowing each sack to contain
four bushels at valuation of seventy
five cents per bushel (much below the
average price,, we have paid for oats,
$29S, 1872, or for oats and potatoes alone,
S5l3,672. Yes, it is fact, that Memphis
has paid orer a half million Of dollars
the past year for two articles of produce
that should have been grown in Shelby
county alone Here, then, was enough
money paid away, for the purchase of
tive articles, to have supplied us with a
circulation OF money sufficient to have
made money comparatively easy with
every one. The Chamber Of Commerce
is Of no account, except TO gather
such facts for our reflection,
to show us what fools we are. Let us
quit cursing Yankees--let us cease to
hope for relief from reconstruction-let
us help each other in trying 10 produce
something. The very same policy will
be adopted this year as last, unless
measures are taken to arrest it. Differ
ent minds view the same subject from
different standpoints. / write to arrest

necessary relief / submit the question
then: Shall we raise our own potatoes
and oats this year, or, shall we, by a

worst, and let our active people go to

The Choice of Tennessee.

A meeting of the Estate Central Com.
mittee on Democratic organization,
which was held at Nashville on the 10Th,
has put forth preamble and resolutions,
which purports to be done in the name of
the people of Tennessee, and the last of
which is as follows:
Resolred, That Andrew johnson is
the choice of the Democratic and Con-
servative portion of the people OF Ten
nessee as their candidate for the Presi-
dency of the United States in November
next. and. that if selected he will receive
their cordial and unanimous support ;
thew will however, if some other good
man and true to the Constitution and
20 the rights and liberties of the people
be nominated by the National Demo
cratic Convention, cheerfully acqulesce,
and Weld him hearty and enthusiastic
support.
We have no objection to the compli'
ments of the Committee to the President,
and we are willing to subscribe to his
nomination, and support him, if he should
be selected by the National Democratic
Convention. We believe that is the voice
of the State. But we protest that the Com
mittee has gone too far in indicating Mr.
johnson as the first choice of Tennessee
ans; not because such is, or may not be
the fact, but because, if it be so, that fac
is not yet sufficiently ascertained. BY
what right has this expression OF thu
Committee been made ? By wha'
mode have they learned this frs
and decided choice Of Mr.. John
son over Mr.. Pendletou, or an
other man the Convention may SCI
ft to seleet2 1t may be true that th
preference exists. But we are unable L
affirm the fact Of our own knowledge

AIDS Washington dispatch states that
private advices from London mention the
receipt of the intelligence from Mexico
of the determination of that government
to repudiate all debts offoreign countries,

rise to an intense feeling of indignation

the ports of Mexico and hold them until
satisfaction is given. 1t is also under
