Us HAVE PEACE.

Since the result OF the election has be-
come known many Of u citizens have
! expressed their fears that it would have
the effect OF exciting the negroes into
expressions and acts Of e1Tnity towards
the white race, whom they have been
taught by their leaders 10 believe are
inimicai to them. Il is feared that they
will construs GRANTS election TO the
Presidency as achieving for them license
to do whatever their wicked and design.
ing leaders may project, and thatathey
will precipitste, BY open-hsnded iudis-
cretions, G breach Of the peace leading
to deplorsble consequences.
We hope that these fears (which We
admit are to some extent well gTounded)
will not find realization. The men OF the
Republican party OF the South, who con-
trol this unfortunate and ignorant ele-
ment OF oar population, must by this
time be well satisfiei that the white PEG
ole are abnndantly cble TO protect them
selves, and that now that all occasion
for q discreet f~orbearance has been re.
moved by the defeat OF SEYMOUR, they
are determined upon that protection aud
viii enforce that obedience 20 law with
out which we cannot enjoy the peace so
necessary to the prosperity Of Oursection.
Neither the negroes nor their leaders
must presume that we feel cowed or DIS
pirited by the election Of Gen. GRANT, OIL
that we will be il any degree less self
asserting than we have been. The re-
suit OF the election has not impaired our
manhood, nor diminished tire natural
powers and impulses that with our Tscs
underlie all constitutions and laws. We
feel that this is our country. We feel
that here we are to work eut the Destiny
which Providence has prepared fer Us.
We cannot shun it. We have not been
able TO do so in the past, and cannot in
the future. We must bear u burdens,
however iutolsrable and heavy, and
keep right on, working ct u every day
pursuits, and reaping as much Of profit
and benefit as is possible. Whatever in
the shape Of idleness, y%iciousness or
riot crops out Ia opposition 10 US,
in the furtherance Of orr legitimate
schemes Of industry, must be put down,
and promptly, by the fsirest enforce
ment Of the laws by those who govern.
II these fall short of their duty, then the
white people, who are destined to SUI
premacy in this fair land OF the South,
will enforce the law, and SO sharply and
promptly that it will have to be
done again. The forbeariDg spirit of the
Southern people is broken henceforth.
they will hold all who infringe the peace
to 8 strict accountability. "Let US have
peace"

At last accounts SMITH, representing
the ultra element Of the Rsdical party,
was fifty five votes ahead of our csndi-
date with the following yet to be heard
from -Four precincts Ia Upton county,
one in Haywood, two in Shelby, one in
Madison, and all Of McNaiFy but one
precinct. From those there is little
doubt that DR.. LEFIWICH will receive
enough votes to balance SMITHS present
majority, and ensbl5 him to leal both
his opponents by q majority, smaller to
be sure than we At first counted upon,
but enough for ell practical purposes.
Unless there is some illegal mEnipuls-
ton Of The vote by the Radicals who
have had exclusive control of the ballot
boxes and Registration offices, we may
count with certainty upon the election Of

As II element Of political power the
negro must hereafter be clsssed SO be-
longing TO tbs extreme wing OF
Radicalism in Tennessee. At the
late election, neither personal
considerations sfTsoting his future vel
fare, nor appeals to his sense OF gratitude
for unnumbered benefits, could awaken
in him any emotions Of sympathy for
the white people, with whom an inexor-
able destiny has linked him. 4 stolid
Indifference or an ~impuGently cunning
ieer were in most cases the answer that
were given to thoss OF the Democratic
party, who for the sake OF q triumphant
vindieation OF principle, stopped to So
licit what should have been freely given
By The negroes Of Shelby county. Some
few honorable exceptions are noticeable
amid the ranks Of the negro army Of vo-
tegs, hut these are So eS0 as to strengthen
our conviction Of the general unrelisbili-
IS OF the race, when the claims Of the
Democratic party are in the scale.
Eighty.st negro UOtes for Leff1Cjch out

and honesty in the administration Of jas

appeals OF men Of their wi color who
have sealed their devotion to the people

for the men who have caught them in

In thus openly avoWing a preference
for that element of the body polite of

1t Is a noticeable feature OF the good
sense that aotuates our people that the
defeat We have suffered in the election Of
Gen. GRANT, while in individual cases
it produces great depression, has had no
~parceptibIe Influence upon trade, and
none at all ss to the future plans and pur-
poses Of any considerable number Of
them. The people OF Tennessee, like
those Of the other Southern States, have
passed through the ordeal of a
great revolution, and have real
izsd all Of hardship, of trisl, OF
misfortune that revolution could bring
to them. Indeed, they are yet suf-
fsring from the political evils following
as a consequence Of this revolution, and
accept GRANTS election to the Presi.
deney as only the natural result Of the
prevalent sentiment at the North that
We are yet uaconverted, and are ssready
as we were in 1862 to preeipitate q war
between the States. More reflective
Than ever upon consequences and
their sources, u people, especially the
planting and commercial men, are not to
be utterly cast down, az if without hope,
simply for the reason that an opposing
political party is for the time triumph
ant. They remember thst within the
next four years ether elections are to
take place, from which may follow re-
suits that will materially modify the VIC
tory Of RadicaIism on Tuesday last. They
feel that whatever betides politically,
we muat live, and living, must engage as
sctively as ever in the affairs Of life.
Railroads must run, steamboats, must
ply u rivers, cotton, corn, wheat and
all that is necessary to commerce and 10
life be produced. In other words the
spot must be kept boiling.n The little
ones are TO be schooled, If GRANT
IS President. Indeed, their educs-
cation becomes ali the necessary, in
order that in the near or remote future
they may assist 10 administer to them
