The Action of the Democlatic
Stale Convention of Tennessee.

The Democracy and Conservatives OF
Tennessee met in State Convention, at
Nashville on the 9th inst. The majority
of the Delegates chosen to the Democrat
ic National Convention are in favor of the
nomination of the Hon. GEORGE H. PEN
DLEToN. The Convention unanimously
and enthusiastically indorsed the Green
back policy of Mr.. PENDLEToN. A special
gives this account of the doings OF the
Convention:
The Democratic State Convention met
to-day. 1t was very numerously attended,
every section of the State being represent
ed. 1t was composed of the leading men
of former parties, and prominent leaders
on both sides during the war. Its session
was prolonged, and at times considerable
feeling prevailed, but not of an acrimoni-
Gus character. Differences of views of
policy were cordially discussed while there
was entire accord on all matters OF prin-
ciple. A platform was adopted formally
aliying the Conservatives of Tennessee
with the National Democratic party; de-
claring the doctrine of secession finally de-
cided by the war, but asserting the just
rights of the States.
Strong grounds was declared against the
reconstruction policy of Congress, and in
favor of the rightful supremacy of the
white man in the control of the Government.
The greenback policy was unanimously and
enthusiastically adopted. A resolution
laudatory of President johnson for his Ad-
ministretion policy and congratulating
him and the country on the defeat of the
impeachment was adopted, and without
nominating him for the Presidency at New
York, it was declared in the event that his
name was mentioned, it was due that the
delegation should cast vote for him. The
delegation is composed of good men of all
shades OF former politics. A majority are
considered to be Pendleton men.
A general impression prevailed that Pen
dleton would be the candidate, as he is the
representative of the financial policy, which
proved itself very strong.
A committee was also appointed to pre-
pare an address to the New York Conven-
tiOn.

Invalid Pensions.

The absence of proof of the death of
soldier has hitherto been the great obstacle
in the way of the widows receiving her
pension papers. Many soldiers have been
last heard from in rebel prisons, on the
battlefield or in hospitals. In these cases
1t has been customary to petition Congress
for relief, but now such a course is un-
necessary. Mr.. Perham, Chairman of the
committee on Invalid Pensions, stated Oh
Saturday last, in the House of Represen-
tatives, that the Pension Depart
ment had recently established rule
that it shall be held sufficient if proof can
be made that the soldier disappeared under
circumstances which would lead to the pre-
sumption of his death, and that he had not
been heard of for two years. In reply to
questions on the subject from other mem
bers. Mr.. Perham stated that the decision
Of the Pension Department was a final,
not temporary one, and that the commit
tee on Pensions would not report gener-
al bill to obviate the necessity of positive
proof of the death of a soldier, as the new
rule of the Department covered every mer-
itorious Philadelphia Ledger.

A WIND storm passed this way. says the
Sandusky Register, Friday afternoon, doing
some damage, A portion of the roof and
chimney of Luce's factory was blown down.
and part of the S. NJ. & N. depot unroof-
ed. Portions of Hosmer's brewery and OF
Post & Lewis warehouse were also relieved
of roofing, and the east roof of the G. s. &
c. warehouse was pitched into the bay.
Part of the fair ground fence was blown
across the railroad track. and some valu-
able trees in various parts of the city were
uprooted. The scow Kane, when off Put
in-Bay, was struck by the squall which car
ried away every shred of her canvass, but
did no other damage. She was towed into
port by the tug "Griffin," and will 60 to De-

IT was not necessary for the Crisis to ad-
duce additional evidence, in its issue of the
10th inst, to prove that in assisting to
nominate and elect the senior editor Sec
retary of State, we contributed to elevate
a man who was totally unworthy. He had
conclusive evidence of that before. To
make good his allegation to which we took
exceptions last week, he takes our editorial
to which he referred mendaciously, and
wrenches sufficient from its context to
make it appear that he asserted truly.
Had he published the editorial entire he
would have vindicated claim to fairness
and manliness. The object we had in view,
and none other, in writing and publishing
the editorial he misrepresents and wrench
es from its context, was to show that if
Chief Justice Chase felt it incumbent upon
him to leave the Republican party, and
that if he, who had so long battled the
Democratic party, would not hesitate to
receive the support of the Democracy for
the Presidency, honest Republicans, who
were dissatisfied with the way the Govern
ment has been carried on by the Republi-
can party, could certainly forego their pre-
judices and act with the Democratic party.
1t this object of the editorial was not ap-
parent to the editor of the Crisis, he is even
duller of comprehension than we imagine
him to be.

Letters from Japan to April 2Sth, state
that the French and Dutch Ambassadors
had, at different times, been officially in
troduced to the Mikado, but that the de-
scription given of the appearance of the
monarch of japan differed 80 greatly that
the resident merchants believe seriously
that subordinate official had been exhib-
tied to the foreign Ministers, instead OF the
spiritual head of the empire. The recent
murderous assault by the bigoted Japanese
upon deputation from the foreign embas-
sizes has caused the publication of stringent
orders, making high officials guilty of SIM
liar attacks liable to decapitation and loss
of caste, without the honor of hari Kart
The envoy of the Mikado had received Or
ders, it is reported, to raze Yeddo, where
the attack was made, to the ground. 1t is
also stated that the Mikado had under con-
sideration proposition to open the entire
country to trade and travel.

Cams Run ON The Greenback Is
sue this Time.


AGATE, the Washington correspondent
of the Cincinnati Gazette, has been canvass
ing the prospects for the Republicans in
the respective Congressional Districts in
Ohio. He says that, undoubtedly, GEN.
eral BEATTY will be the Republican nomi-
nee In the Sth District, but that he will be
under the necessity of making his financial
views square to the Chicago PLATFORM
That is to say, that he can not run this
time, as he did last winter, on the green
back issue. He must now run, if he runs
at all, affirming that it is right and just
that there should be gold for the bondhold-
er and paper for the people. 1t is some
satisfaction to know that the people will
have their say on this subject at the Octo-
Der election.
