THE PEACE MOVEMENT IN TENNEs

SEE.
We publish to-day, says the National
Entedigencer, very interesting report of
the peace movement inaugurated in Ten
nessee by those who had been prominent
and popular General officers in the Con-
federate army 1t is full of significance,
and of Importance to the people Of the
whole country.
Prompted by personal fears, prejudice
and passion trembling with conscious
ness of guilt and wrong towards their
fellow men, and melted by the internal
madness of B-ownlow, the spurious Lee
gislature of Tennessee was about to pres.
cipitate a blood, civil wal. upon the State.
At the rate they were going nnder
Brownlows dictatiOn and advice, a state
of actual war was rapidly becoming in
evitable Brownlow's Legislature, were,
by their course, inviting this condition of
affairs, as pretext for invoking the mili-
tary aid of the Federal government to
aid them in their demon work of death,
destruction and revenge upon the Demo-
Gratis who refused to kneel at the fOotstOOl
of Brownlowism
AT this juncture, Generals Cheatham,
Nancy and Johnson called a meeting of
other ex-COn(edcratC Generals, and also
sought an interview with committee of
the Legislature. The argument of these
Generals is unanswerable The legisla-
tive committee was compelled to admit
this, and to their foresight, prudence and
calmness the country will be indebted
for the avoidance Of state Of affairs in
Tennessee which would probably, within
a month, have lighted the fires of civil
war throughout the whole Union.

An Organized Band Of Robbers In
Missouri, etc

ST. LOUIS, August 8.-There seems to be
an organized band of rObbera at work in
the western part Of this State. On Tuesday
last, the stage from Butler to Harrison
vile, Bates county, was stopped by three
men, and the passengers robbed of several
hundred dollars and other Valuables. On
the evening of the same day, Mr.. Good
man, from Mansfield, Ohio, in company
with his family, near Jacksonville, was
robbed of$f90 and his watch, no doubt by
the same men who robbed the stage. Mr..
Goodman was going to Bates county to buy
a farm, but was stripped Of every dollar he
had.
A party of citizens organized and went
in pursuit Of the robbers.
K. S. Loveland, prominent spirilualist
and popular e1pounder Of spiritualism and
philosophy, publishes a challenge TO the
clergy of st. Louis and elsewhere, to pub
licly Gdiscuss the following questions with
him
First. That the system Of religion taught
by the Catholic and Protestant churches
are false in theory, and opposed to the
advancement Of civilization and the gen
eral well-being Of mankind
Second. That modern spiritualism em-
bodies a system Of the highest religious
truth that has yet came into the world, and
bat it il susceptible OF proof.

In the subjoined paragraph, in his lets
ter of acceptance, Mr. Seymour admins
ters severe criticism on his cOmpeti-
tors avermcnt, that if elected President,
he would have no policy but be guided
by shifting circumstances Says Mr..
Seymour:
| have no mere personal wishes which
mislead my Judgment in regard to fhe
pending election. No man who has
weighed and measured the duties Of the
office of President of the United States,
can fail to be impressed with the cares
and tolls of him who is to meet its de-
mands. 1t il not merely to float with
popular currents, without policy or
purpose. On the contrary, while our Con-
stitution gives Just weight to the public
will, its Distinguishing feature is that it
seeks to protect the rights of minorities
It's greatest glory is that it puts restraints
upon power. 1t gives force and form TO
those maxims and principles of civil lib
erty for which the martyrs of freedom have
struggled through ages. 1t declares the
right of the people
" NC NNNuiN III AAACh BSiopLiFg AOLbNd anu
papers against unreasonable searches and
seizures. That Congress shall make no
law respecting an establishment Of religion
or the free exercise thereof, or abridging
the freedom of speech or of the press, or
the right of the people to petition for re-
dress OF grievances. 1t secures the right
of speedy and public trial by an Impair
tial Jury"
No man can rightfully enter upon the
duties Of the Presidential Office, unless he
ID not only willing to carry out the wishes
of the people expressed in a constitutional
way, but is also prepared to stand up for
the rights of minorities. He must be
ready to denOunce measures which would
wrong personal OF home rights, or the re-
Ii gious conscience of the humblest citizen
Of the land. lie must maintain, without
of creed or nationality, all the
Of American citizenship.
