Mr. George ID. Prentice has discovered
that Washington Irving. through the me-
dium Of Diedrick Knickerbocker, long
since pictured the Radical candidates.
Thus:
There are two opposite ways by
which some men make a way in the
world; one by talking faster than they
think, and the other by holding their
tongues aud not thinking at all. By the
first, many a smatterer acquires the repu-
taiion of a man Of quick parts; by the
other, many a dunderpate, like the owl,
the siupidest Of birds, comes to be the
very type Of wisdom"
Again, writing Of Governor Woster Van
Twiller, Irving wrote
With all his reflective habits, be mover
made up bis mind on a subject His ad-
herents accounted for this by the extra
ordinary magnitude Of bis ideas. He
conceived every subject on so grand q
scale that he had not room in bis head
TO turn il over aud examine both sides OF
IL Certain IL is, that II any matter we're
propounded 10 him. on which ordinary
morials would rashly Determine st frsi
glance, be would pat on vague, mystic
rious look, shake his cspscious head,
smoke some time in profound silence,
and Al last observe thai be had his doubts
about the matter.

Platform Of the Tennessee Democracy.

/. Tho Conservative men Of Tennessee put
ting aside all questions decided by the war. q y
unite themselves with the Democratic party as
il now exists.
2. The question of the right of State to Sc
cede from the Union has been decided by arms,
and that decision should be accepted as final
and conclusive.
8. Nevertheless. while tbcConstitutien makes
tho Federal Government supreme, 1t is so only
with we'll defined limitations and restrictions,
leaving the States large rights and powers over
their domestic concerns. and making them 40
equal in respect of such rights: and these
rights have not been impaired by the result OF
the war, or the powers of the General Govern.
ment aggrandiZed by it, to the enlargement
of public liberty.
A. The extinguishment Of African slavery is
recognized as fact, ratified by binding con-
stitutional amendment.
of suffrage, by the Congress of the United
States, aud the disfranchisement of white
men, by the same authority, is q gross usurpa.
tion Of power. end policy unjust, unwise and
oppressive, and tending to excite war of
races the white men of America are entitled
to superiority and supremacy in the admins
tration Of the Federal and State Governments:
and any measure intended to deprive them of
it, or to divide or impair il, greatly endangers
the perpetuity Of free republican Institutions.
8. The faith Of the nation IL pledged to the
payment OF the national debt according to the
terms Of the laws nnder which hh the bonds were
=
ment of the bonds ought not to be extended;
the principal of the Five-twenty bonds ought
to be paid in currency. and the money gran ted
to the national banks to be withdrawn.
7. The Government bonds should be taxed in
the hands of the bondholders, equally with
other property
The doctiiaes and practices of the Radical
party, which endeavors, by encroaehing upon
the powers Of the Executive and Judicial
branches of tho Government, to absorb in the
Legislative Department all powers, tend to the
destruction of tho republican system of gov
ernment and the civil libart' of the people. :.
9. Equal and exact justice to all gen. of
whatever State or persuasion. religious or po-
Iitical; peace. commerce and honest friend
ship with all nations; entanglipg alliances
with none; the support of the State Govern
ments in all their rights. as the most compe-
tent administration of our domestic concerns
and the surest bulwark against anti-republi-
cap tendencies the preservation OF the Gen,
eral Government in It's whole constitutional
vigor, as the sheet anchor Of peace at home
and safety abroad; q jealous care of the rights
of election by the people and the supremacy of
the civil over the military authority.

Bennatt on General Lee.

But If the Democratic Convention must
nominate q soldier-if it must have a
name identified with the glories of the
wsr-ws will recommend candidate for
its favors. Let it nominate Gen. Robert
E. Lee. Let it boldly take at once the
best of all its soldiers, making no pala-
YER or apology. He is a better soldier
than any of those they have thought upon
aud greater man. He is one in whom
the military genius of this nation finds
its fullest development. Here the in
equality will be in favor of the Demo
Gratis; for this soldier, with handful OF
men whom he had moulded into an army,
bafied our greater Northern armies for
four years; aud when opposed by Grant
was only worn down by that stolid
strategy Of stupidity that accomplishes
its object by mere weight.
With one-quarter the men Grant had
this soldier fought him msgni6csntly
across the territory Of his native State,
and fought his army down to a stump.
There never was such an army or such
campaign, or such a General for illus
trating the military genius and possi-
bilyies Of our people; and this General
is the best Of all for Democratic candi-
date. II is certain that with half as
many men as Grant bad be would have
beaten him frou the field in Virginia,
and he affords the best promise Of any
soldier for beating him Rgain.-Ner

OPENING OF THE Crescent City

OPENING OF THE CRESCENT CITY
SPRINGs.-The Crescent City Springs
were formally opened on Saturday
afternoon and evening with great
eciat. The cars made regular trips
during the day, and until a late hour
at night a large number Of people
visited the grounds during the day,
and a night the number was largely
increased, the inur cars being crowded
each trip till near midnight. The
Crescent City s yer Band was out in
force. aud made the most charming
music, filing the beautiful grounds
and the whole surrounding country
with the most delightful melody. The
police arrangc were most excel
lent, and the N St perfect order was
maintained Some half dozen per
sons during the evening manifesting
a disposition % violate the rules, were
summary ci-cted, the entrance fee
being retura6d This will be the
result in every ease, as the propri-
etors and managers are determined to
make it place where ladies' and gen.
4lemen may euj1y hem elves uninter-
rupted and unaunoyed. aud in order
to carry out this rule the entrance
fee # five cents has been adopted At
night the grounds were beautifully
lighted up with Chinese lanterns and
other lights. All were astonished
and delighted at the wonderful inn
provements that have been made b.
the present proprietors and manager,
who, with a public spiritedness and
philanthropy, have arran ed public
park for the enjoyment Of all who
demean themselves properly, at
very trifing expense.
Colonel Wehler, the manager, had
provided with great liberality for the
entertainment Of his guests, and won
golden opinions from all. on this gala
occasion. Yesterday, it is estimated,
fully ], 900 persons visited the grounds.
Further improvements Of vast magni-
tude are being made, and the Crescent
City Springs, under the present man
agement, is destined to become famous
throughout the whole land. Families
cannot find more delightful place to
spend day.

JUDICIAL CHANGE-Today Recor-
der Nelson lays aside the robes of
Office, which will be assumed by Ma
than Willard, Recorder elect, who
as a contemporary says, will to-day
- issue the duties of Office"
Mr.. Nelson who retires, has as all
unprejudiced men must admit, dis
charged the duties of the Office for
the last four years with fidelity and
honesty of purpose. If he has had a
fault it has been that Of leniency, espe-
cialIy towards those whom he has
known from childhood Though not
as polished or as technical in his
rules of procedure as was Chief JUS
tice Marshall, or Roger B fancy, yet
he generally managed to serve the
ends of justice, and reach a righteous
decision. We hope his successor may
mete out justice as faithfully and dis
passionately.

RUNAWAY NARROW ESCAPE
On Saturday, a horse with a small
boy on his back, was seen dashing
wildly down Walnut Street, to the
great terror of the spectators, who
momentarily expected to see the rider,
a mere child, dashed to pieces by
being thrown upon the hard earth, or
the more harder powders. The
heroic lad, having abandoned the
reins, chung tenaciously to the horn of
the saddle, until the frightened ami
NAL was stopped by gentleman on
First Street. Ii is certainly hazard
Gus for such small boys to be permit
ted to ride alone and unattended
through the streets Of the cia and it
is remarkable that fatal accidents
have not occurred ere now.
