AFvAIRs IN TENNEssEE.--A Nashville dispatch, of
the 18th tilt, says: Cancellation and compromise be-
tween the party in power and the DISTINGUISHED
in Tennessee appear to be at end The indications
now look to reaction of bitter and relentless pro-
crption on both sides. Arguing from the stand point
that the rebels of Tennessee have left nothing undone
IN the way of entreaty, appeal and compromise to Sc
cure equal political rights with their late slaves, and
that all approaches and petitions have been met only
With scorn and contempt the Nashville Banner to-
morrow morning will strongly advocate relentless pro-
crpton against the Radicals, misunderstanding all in
ercourse With them whatever, either socially or in
business and this is to be kept up until the Radicals
see fit to extend suffrage to the DISTINGUISHED. In the
Presenttemper of the public mind throughout the
State, there is very little doubt that this policy will be
naugurated and carried out, and the bitterness of
feeling now existing will be deepened and intensified
IN the other side the Legislature is pushing matters

has been doing. Receipts of cotton for the
week arc $50 bales, against 81 bales last
Matchmaking total of about % 900 bales
received at this port during the past eleven

has not had occasion to hold court LOT 'hFee
or four DAVIS. Even the fighting upon our
streets, of which we have lately had such
freonent instances, seems temporarily to
have subsidized, aad the Mayor has had no
fines to impose. Speaking of fines reminds
nc of the fact that during the few months
Mayor Burgess has been in Office he has
collected larger amount from that source
than his predecessor saw fit to impose du-
ring his entire administration.

absent at the Springs and in the mountains,

home. This may be spoken, however, OF
almost every community in the South.

DR.. Capillary's hair-dressing is just as
popular as DR.. Larynx's cough preparation,
yet those who take them could not be made
to believe that these two eminent physi-
clans are the same person, and that as both
articles come from the same factory there
is more than a suspicion that both are the
self-same article. 1t is not our wish or in
tention to do mischief, but friend Of ours
meets sometimes leaky clerk of the Doc
tor, who informs him that "at one time
there was ten thousand bottles of each
of these invaluable remedies to be labelled.
Where are the coughremedy labels?' asked
the Doctor as he came in when they had the
job half done. Here they are was the
reply. My gracious! said he, 'you'vep put
the cough labels on the hair preparation.
Well, we'll, no matter Idare say tits just as
well. Put on the others And if you will
believe it," said the clerk, ?" before a fort
night the purchasers of the hair-dressing
for cough medicine sent for more, and gave
a certificate of the benefit they had got
from it. Depend ON it" continued the
clerk, there's nothing like faith. No, sir! "

.aa .a August ), 1868.
To the Editors Of the Richmond Dispatch:
My attention has just been called to the
communication Of /" Senex in your issue
of the 18th instant. AS the vindicator of
my own reputation, and with proper re-
gard for the reputation OF the " Hot" 1feel
called on to demand of your correspondent
an explanation of the language therein
employed. The impression evidently de-
signed to be conveyed connects me 80 indis-
solubly with the Satanic Majesty who con-
trolls the temperature of these celebrated
waters that the stranger would be induced
TO believe that l was one Of his disciples.
Now, while disclaim all relationship with
the "Eicar," SO honorably mentioned in
the communication of "Senex," yet desire
it understood that will not permit, even
by implication, the impression that am in
any way connected with the evil spirit who
augments the flames, and who, it would
seem, produced such an effect on the mind
OF the Dutchman. Again, your correspond
ent is evidently jealous OF my appearance.
He calls me white-headed. This is too,
much and fight he must.
therefore demand an ample apology;
and failing in this, | shall require at his
hands that satisfaction which, as a gentle
man, he cannot refuse. Aud in order to
facilitate the adjustment Of this difficulty
las you will perceive, forced upon me,) l
now claim the privilege of selecting the
weapons and place, which will either end
the existence of "Senex" or else close the
mortal career of "Old King Cole"

and me to get rich dinner for this man
or this woman who has alighted at our

great cost. These things, if they are Gu
rious in, they can get for dollar at any

But let this stranger see, if he will, in
your looks, in your accent and behavior,
your heart and earnestness, your thought
and will, what he cannot buy at any price
at any village or city, and which he may
we'll travel fifty miles, and dine sparsely,
