We only hope the spirit of our fathers

far distant day of the future we may take
heart enough to lift our heads and claim
the rights of free people. Now we ask
Mr.. Brownlow's permission to hold a

unIavfuI Disfrnnchisement.

1t is thought that not less than one
thousand white citizens, who have as
good legal right to vote as was ever
possessed by any freeman Of Tennessee,
have been shut out from registration by
the fact that few days and few hours
have been given to it. What does it mean
that time enough has not been given, SO
that every man fairly entitled might go
leisurely and obtain his certiGcate2 Is
there good reason why the few legal
voters of Tennessee should be kept from
the polls2 The great majority Of white
men are disfranchised by unlaw. Is not
this enough, that every obstruction must
be thrown in the way ofthe few remaining
white voters2 And how happensit that
no radical whites have failed to get GER
tifcates, while as many Conservatives as
possible have been prevented? How
happens it, too, that there are now more
certificates given out than there are
voters in the county of Shelby, while not
less than a thousand have been pre-
vented from registering The injustice
ofhurrying up the registration after this
fashion is enormous, and we believe the
fraud is not less. There is such thing
as becoming so abandoned that crimes
can be committed without shame. But
if the State Government or the Register
here would make any pretense of fairness
and do anything, like their Northern
eoadjutors, having the look of fairness
flor appearance sake, as one of them ex-
pressed it), the Office for registration will
be kept open to the last minute.

dissoivng bones, which must prove highly
economical and suitable in unsettled countries
where, owing to the great abundance of forest ts
wood ashes are cheaply secured-indeed, are
always ready at hand. This new process OF
treating bones consists Of mixing them with
wood ashes and Stacked caustic lime. and
Keeping the mixture constantly moist As in
the preparation Of lye for manufacturi soap.
the alkaline carbonates in the ashes, such as
carbonate of potassa, are by the action of caus.
tic lime converted into free caustic potassa
