az2iAN IMPORTANT MOVEMENTS
ave have received the following letter
from citizen Of Giles county:
PuLAsKI, TEkk.s Jnlys q, 1S68.-Ehe
people OF Giles county are preparing a
memorial 60 gpfesent TO His Exeelleney
Gov Brownies and the Honorable Legis-
lature of Tennessee, at their extra session
10 be coE=sasa on the 9th instant. Il
will be in reference to the present unhappy
social and political condition Of the State,
and respectfully suggesting the measures
by which, in their opinion, a better state
of things can be peacefully and speedily
produced; and concluding with petition
that steps be taken TO remove the political
| disabilities under which a numerous class
in the State now labor. This petition will
/ perhaps be signed by almost every white
citizen 10 the county. Giles hopes that
every other county in the State will CO
! operate with her 10 this movement, and
send up similar petitions at once.
We understand similar movement
has already been set on foot in this eoun-
ty, and that the names Of our citizens
viii be obtained to the petition as rapidly
as possible. 1t is movement which, if
intended to accomplish anything, should
be prosecuted with vigor and the peti-
tons laid before the Governor at once
The Legislature meets on Monday, and
the Governor will most likely complete
his message by sunday evening" and
whatever recommendation be may make,
if any, viii have to be embodied in his
message. If Gov Brownlow and the
Legislature desire to speedily restore the
State to its wontcd peaceful relations,
they have the opportunity Of doing So
Upon them rests a responsibility such as
no Governor and Legislature Of this
State have hitherto borne Itremains to
be seen whether they have the magma
nimity and the nerve to rise above the
petty intrigues of the politician and meet
this crisis in the spirit of patriotism and
an enlarged craftsmanship, and thus dis~
charge the dnty imposed upon them so as
to "let us have peace The matter rests
with them, and they cannot shirk respono
sibility for what this State shall be in
the immediate future. Strike from the
men who pay your taxes the unjust and
odiOus disabilities you have imposed up
on them do simple justice to men who
have shown themselves a law-abiding
people, and you at once make them cons
tented citizens, who viii vie with every
other citizen in aiding 10 build up the
material interests Of the State and 10 ce-
ment the ties which make us one people

Of alarm one day to It's political friends,

"The only States that we consider moral
ly certain 10 vote for Seymour and Blair
are Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware
and even Delaware might be carried for
Grant if his friends were as active and
Jealous as they, should be-" --
In Former years the Tribune possessed
some reputation for candor, but it seems
to have become demoralized since the
war 1t would be SANDER, however, to
accuse that paper Of honesty in making
the assertion we have quoted. 1t enter
tains no such feeling of safety for its
party as is implied IN the paragraph in
which it comedies two and probably
three States to the Democratic ticket.
