Radical party. To the idea ofpermanent
negro domination "they have sacrificed
their Constitutional obligations, and for
it they must make fresh offerings in the
future" How easily this charge can be
sustained must be patent to every intelli-
gent man and equally clear must be the
certain fulfllmcnt of the prediction by
which it is accompanied. The altern-
alive then is imperative; our people "must
begin anew, taking the Constitution for
our guide, and natural laws for our limit
ations," or our boosted liberties will soon
be lost for ever.

GEORGE n, PENDLETON,

At two o'clock this morning the Hon.
George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, arrived in
our city, and is stopping at Barnum's
Hotel. Notwithstanding the unusual
hour for a reception, the "Crew of the
Constitutions" the "Sons of Liberty" and
thousand or more of our Democratic
citizens spontaneously crossed the river,
met him at the cars, and escorted him over
and through the streets with music, BAN
ners, torches, tsnsparencies, and great en-
thusiasm. Arriving at Barnum's he was
introduced to the large crowd present by
Colonel D. Ii. Armstrong, when he made
brief and most happy speech. He
thanked them for their kind and cordial
welcome, as grateful and complimentary
as it was unexpected; said that the late
ness of the hour precluded any lengthy
remarks; promised them full and COM
plete speech in the future, and closed by
wishing them good night.
At the conclusion of his brief remarks
three tremendous cheers were given for
him, and the large audience quickly dis.
persed.-St. Louis Republican, 18th.

NEW WORK AND WAsnINGToN.

The through passenger trains between
Washington and New York, and Washing
ton and Philadelphia, are now run under
new schedule, beginning with Sunday
last, 18th instant. The time will be
quickened materially, the morning express
making the run through between Wash
ington and Courtland's Ferry, in each di-
rection, in eight hours and fifteen minutes,
and the night train in less than nine hours.
The night train will start from each end
at nine A. NJ, instead of seven, and reach
the opposite end before six A. NJ. All
connections now made at both termini will
be maintained; while southwardly passen-
gers leaving Boston by the Shore Line
after eleven A. NJ, can reach Washington
before six the following morning.

GOVERNOR BRowNLow.-Our noble
Chief Executive of State came over last
Thursday on an excursion on the X. & G.
r. R. The citizens of Maryville not be-
ing made aware of this visit did not pay
just tribute to the distinguished visitor by
demonstrations of welcome. Had the in
tended visit been known, the Governor
would have received welcome and test
imonial of the appreciation of his services
that would have warmed the heart of
every true patriot. As it is, in behalf of
the loyal citizens of old Blount, we extend
to the Governor hearty and cordial sup
port in his effort to quell instruction and
protect the 'law-abiding citizens Of the
state.-MaryuiHe Republican. i'a

CONNECTICUT.

John Quincy Adams has accepted the
nomination of the Democrats of Massachu-
sets for the office of Governor. His let
ter of acceptance is manly one. There
is no room for doubt as to his exact posi-
ton on the great issues of the day. The
letter closes ~ think neither the inter-
ests nor the destiny of this people will
allow permanent domination to the Afri-
can race in any State, but the Republican
party is irrevocably pledged to this idea.
They have staked their existence as par
ty on its triumph. To this idea they
have sacrificed their constitutional obli-
cations, and for it they must make fresh
offerings in the future. The blacks must
have lands, arms, and a standing army to
maintain them in their position. They
are clamoring for them, now. The United
States must furnish them. The path
upon which Congress has entered permits
no halt. Retreat is ruin. We must begin
anew, taking the Constitution for our guide
and natural laws for our limitations"
Such views, expressed by one of the
ablest, coolest-headed and most honest
politicians of New England, should be
well weighed by those white men of the
South who have been for the last two or
three years giving their adherence to the

TIE PROCLAMATION.

Governor Brownlow has issued his pro-
clamation authorizing the organization of
an indefinite number of militia compa-
MES. Notwithstanding the passage of the
bill giving the Governor this power, the
appearance of his proclamation was al
most as unexpected by the people of the
State as it was unwelcome to them. SO
far as we can see and hear the sentiment
concerning it is one of almost universal
condemnation. Our people had begun to
hope for peace, particularly since the
guarantee given by the Government at
Washington that, when necessary for the
preservation of order in Tennessee, suf-
ficient number of National troops would
be furnished.
The great majority of our people, for
want of the right kind of intelligence, per-
haps, fail to see the necessity for military
interference of any kind in Tennessee mat
tiers. Those who are directly interested
in the success of the Radical party in Nos
vember seem to see it quite clearly, and
we are forced to the conclusion that this
calling out of troops. particularly of negro
troops, is solely for the purpose of secur-
ing the State to Grant whether the people
will it or not.
Our people should be more than ever
careful not to do anything that will fur
nish the slightest excuse for the perpetra-
ton of SO great wrong as the Governor
proposes in his diabolical proclamation.
If there is any possible chance for it we
must have peace now by peaceable means,
though the day may not be far distant when
our tormentors will be glad to "let us
have" the peace we are now pleading for.

THE SUPREME COURT.

The Supreme Court did not hold its
session at Knoxville. Judge Smith was
not satisfied of the legality of the Court, as
at present composed, and decided on an
adjournment until the 9TH of November.
1t is a pity for Governor Brownlow that
he could not get hold of two or three
Maynards, men who would FIJI his bill to
a fraction, but We consider it rather to the
honor and glory of the State that he has
so far failed to do so.
John Trimble, who positively refused
a commission as Supreme Judge, on ac-
count, perhaps, of its interference with
his license to do up Congressional devil
try, has gone to Washington. So has Mr..
Maynard. Judge Smith, it is said, has
returned to Memphis.
We suppose Governor Brownlow will
have things so arranged that the Novem-
Der session will not miss fire, but his APP
pointees will not be apt to feel much like
attending to business about that time. AT
least, we hope that the pill administered
to the Negro Equality party on the Sd of
November will have had time to operate
in the intervening two days,

CAMPAIGN ADDRESS.

An able address to the people of Ten.
nessee has been issued by committee APP
pointed for the purpose. On account of
its length and our very limited space this
week we are unable to publish it. We
learn from the address that the ticket for
Electors for the State at large is complete
in the second, third, fourth, sixth, and
eighth Congressional districts. Electors
are yet to be chosen or appointed in the
three remaining districts. 1t is advised
that this be done Immediately. A plan Of
canvass will be sent within few days ia
the various counties. In the mean time
the Democrats of each town, county and
civil district are requested to organize
Seymour and Blair Clubs, enrolling the
names OF nOn-voters, as we'll as voters
and to go actively and vigorously to work
to poll as many votes as possible.
All this is good advice, and if our peo-
pie intend to make an effort to break the
negro-equality rule which is disgracing
and ruiuing the State, it is time they
were up and at work. We know that
Seymour and Blair ratification meetings
have beeh constantly held for the past
two months in the hearts of three-fourthS
of the people of this county. But our
enemies are organized, and before we CAL
have any reasonable hope of success in
trial of strength with them our organiza
ton must be as complete as theirs.

fish of the kind of loyalty they have

that he prefers to raise his troops in East

THE PUBLIC CREDIT.

Although sixteen hundred millions of
dollars have been raised'since the war for
the improvement of the national credit by
the reduction of the public debt, the mon
ey has been so fingered and manipulated
by the radical jugglers that our national
credit is lower in the markets of the world
than that of Austria, Turkey, or the mis-
cradle little republics of South America.
While the bonds of these governments are
at par, or nearly SO, those of the United
States have been selling at from 10 to 70,
and are going down, down, down, with ac-
celebrating speed. How long, if radical
sway be continued, before our national
securities will be as worthless in the gen.
eral markets of the world and even in our
own as the old Continental notes were at
the close of the revolution or the Confed-
crate notes at the close of the late war.

[Columbus (Ohio) Crisis.

The Philadelphia Press says that
radical always pays his debts. We sup
pose that his reason for increasing them is
that he may have the extreme pleasure of
paying them. But, unfortunately or for
tunately, his death-day generally comes
before payday. So he passes away with
out the qualification of the great passion
of his life.

T New York Tribul

Many of the old friends of Henry A.
Wise are getting up a subscription fund
in his behalf. Some weeks ago the
Georgetown Cd. c. Courier had an article
recommending that the foreign born popu-
lation of this country, whoes rights we're
so effectually indicated by Hon. Henry
A. Wise, of Virginia, in the memorable
Know Nothing canvass of 1854, should
raise funds by subscription for the pur-
chasing homestead for this gentleman,
who is understood to have been impover-
ished, like SO many of the Southern peo-
pie, by the war.
The Boston Pilot has taken up the same
subject, and late editorial in that jour
nal is said to have created quite sensa-
ton among foreign residents. A large
subscription is reported to have been rails
ed among the adopted cities of Rich
pmoud, and it is believed that this class of
citizens throughout the country will unite
in making the testimonial to Mr.. Wise,
which has been indicated. The amount
asked from each is only one dollar, though
many have subscribed FIVE dollars.
