A Sensible SDeecb,

Attic Fourth Of July celebration in McMinn-
vile, Warren county, Middle Tennessee, speeches
made by Gen. B. J. Hill, an ex-rebel General,
and Judge Newton A. Patterson formerly of King
ston
In his speech Gen Hill did himself much credit.
He alluded to the opposition he met with on the
part Of bis rebel friends in uniting in the celebra-
ton Of the day How can you, said one to him,
take part in celebrating the day under the old lsg
when you have nc privileges under to- The Cen
erals reply was, " l enjoy more privileges than
expected 10 when | surrendered
Such men as Gen. Hill aro better men and more
to be relied on than May who passed through the
war Union men, but who identified in
feeling with those who endeayor 70 accomplish at
the ballot box what they failed to do IN an appeal
70 arms
Had a majority Of those holding prominent posi-
tons in she rebellion in Tennessee manifested the
spirit Of Gen. Hill, there would never have been
enacted any law Of Acknowledgement. Toward such
men, retels who in good faith surrendered, Union
men have never had any hostile feelings. It is
pity there not more rebels like Gen. Hil. There
are some in every community. There are in Knox
Vile some men of this class whom ii would be safe
20 trust with The elective franchise and who are not
parties to or endosers of the plot to assassinate
Union Such meu are known to all Radicals.
And when The bloo3sbed in this community is in
suguraJed which some rebels and so-colled Conser-
valiyes have eudcavorod TO bring on, they will be
septtateI from the woud-be assassins referred TO.

"a Living Dog Better than a Dead
LinnN

Under the above heading the Press and
Herald Of the 10th has the following
No one more fully appreciates the truth
Of this ancient maxim than the editors of
the WHO. IL is a notorious fact, that dU-
ring the life Of the late Col. Henry u. ASbby,
the Wig rdS ReUer h0rH 10 mention his
name, for reasons which are well known TO
the community but no sooner had the
grave closed over his mortal remains, than
the work of SANDER commenced.
Since the Press and Herald has expressed
rcpugnance to the personal war which
has been waged between the editors OF that
and this paper, we shall not comment upon
the assertion contained in the above extract
~ we would otherwise do. Justice to the
Junior editor Of this paper requires that we
should reply to this misrepresentation.
Twice during the past year and a half
before the death Of co., ASbblL the Vino
spoke of him in as severe terms as SiRcc his
death. If the Press and Herald will deny
this statement, we viii furnish it with the
copies of the WING referred TO. The rea-
son il did not speak of him oltencr was be-
cause we did not wish 10 give our enemies
a plausible pretoxt for saying that we were
cndcavorng TO prejudice Ashbys cause m
court
leading Conservative of this place and
friend Of Ashby, told us few days since
that Ashby told hiu that " the reason the
KNOXVILLE VINO had not recently abused
him was because ho had sent word to John
Brownlow that it he did 50 he would slap
his (Brownlows) ;aws" The unfortunate
Ashby is dead and cannot speak for him
self Let the party who bore us the mes
sage give his name Wo assert that we
never received this or any other message
from him. The whole statement is false
The reputation Of Col. Ashby has nothing
TO gain by Islander of those who were not
his friends. This will invite investigation
into his record This investigation we do
not seek to make because it is aIways 40
gracious TO speak about the dead. The
grave demands generosity, although one Of
the wiscst of men tells us that the evil
that men do live after them When man
is placed by God in a representative posi-
ton, has deeds become a portion Of history.
and our criticism does not refer to the per
son but his DEEDS Denuuciation of Camp
and his friends will not add to the reputa-

twenty-five negroes, led by white school teachers

citizens interferred to prevent the execution, and
headed by the Sheriff and the agent of the Freed

which resulted in the death of ten or twelve ne
groes. On the 10th inst. the numbers increased on
both sides, and considerable skirmishinr ensued
which resulted IN twenty five casualties A small
body of troops arrived there late last night and dis
persed the rioters after killing thirty negroes The
negroes who were from three 20 five hundred strong
had fortified themselves near Milican, and refused
TO lay down their arms but the troops soon dspers-
