TENNESSEE.

The returns of the late election re-
ceived so far, are so meagre as to furnish
no basis for a calculation as to the probable
Radical majority. The Radicals appear
to have gained considerably in East Tens
nessee, while the Democrats have made
large gains in the Middle and Western
divisions. There is every reason to be-
lieve that the Radical majority Of last
year WILDE largely reduced. The Demo-
Gratis of some Of the counties have done
remarkably well. For instance, Giles
county gives Seymour majority of "a,
which is a gain of 17S0. Williamson
gives a Democratic majority Of 279, a gain
Of 1909. Marshall gives a Democratic
majority Of about Z 20, gain Of over 1000
The gains in many other counties art
very handsome, and show what maybe
done in the election ofnext August if thu

to enfranchise rather than enchain, ele.
vate rather than crush, build up rather
than trample down. This sounds we'll
enough, but this specimen of small
statesman could not conceal the fact that
he had no sympathy for the Southern
people, DISTINGUISHED and trampled down
as they are. The malignity of this fell
low found vent as follows;
"To-day the only place in this broad
land where the people are prevented
from singing the battle song of war, such
as Down with the traitors and up with
the stars" is on the blood stained fields
Of the South. You could sing those
songs among the banditti Of the Alps, OF
among the Thugs Of India. The only
place where you could not sing them i:
over the graves Of dead soldiers"
Thousands of men from the North VIII

in this aspersiOn. This man who thu
deliberately misrepresents the people o

GRANT AND COLFAN-A CONTRAHT

GRANT AND COLFAN-A CONTRANT.
General Grant has been elected Prcsi-
dent, but the party that elected him
seems to have forgotten that he gave
them success. While ColEax was prompt
" congratulated the night after the cleo
ton, nothing seems to have been said to
Grant touching the result except dis
patch from the Mayor Of Cincinnati, con
graduating him on his splendid victory"
ana rendering him the Inequalities Of
that city on his way to Washington.
Grant replied as follows
GALENA, Ill.,, Nov /, lSGS,-To Hon.
c. r. WIlstach, Mayor Of Cincinnati
Many thanks to citizens Of Cincinnati for
their tender of Inequalities, bat shall
not be able to accept. l will not pass
that way on my return East.

This was not what the Radicals Of
Porkopolls hoped to worm out Of the
President elect, and so the country scarce
" knows that such a correspondence
passed between the distinguished gentle
men. At one o'clock Of the morning Of
the lth inst, the editor Of the Cincinnati
Gazette tcIegraphed to ColaN that
"twcnty thousand rejoicing Republicans
in front OF the Gazette Office send him
their congratulations" Colfax regarded
that as an excellent opportunity to thrust
himself before the country, and he blazad
out in the following luminous light
