Platform of the Tennessee Democracy.

/. The Conservative men Of Tennessee. put
ting aside all questions decided by the war, as
cept the title of " Democrats" and formally
unite themselves with the Democratic party as
il now exists.
2. The question of the right of State to Sc
cede from the Union has been decided by arms,
and that decision should be accepted as final
and conclusive.
the Federal Government supreme, it is so only
with well defined limitations and restrictions,
leaving the States large rights and powers over
their domestic concerns, and making them 40
equal in respect of such rights: and these
rights have not been impaired by the result Of
the war, or the powers of the General Govern
ment aggrandized by it, to the enlargement
of public liberty.
4. The extinguishment of African slavery is
recognized as fact, ratified by binding con-
stitutional amendment.
s. The investiture of negroes with the right
of suffrage, by the Congress of the, United
States, and the disfranchsement OF white
men, by the same authority, isa gross usurpa,,
tion of power, and policy unjust, anwise and
oppressive, and tending to excite war OF
races; the white men of America are entitled
to superiority and supremacy in the admins
tration of the Federal and State Governments;
and any measure intended to deprive them of
it. or to divide or impair it, greatly endangers
the perpetuity of free republican Institutions.
6. The faith of tho nation is pledged to the
payment OF the national debt according to the
terms of the laws under which tho bonds were
issued, and not otherwise. The time of pay
ment Of the bonds ought not to be extended; ;
the principal of the Five-twenty bonds ought
to be paid in currency. and the money granted
to the national banks to bo Withdrawn.
Z. The Government bonds should be taxed in
the hands of the bondholders. equally with
other property. :.
s The doctiiHes and practices of the Radical
party, which endeavors. by encroaching upon
the powers of the Executive and Judicial
branches of the Government, to absorb, in the
Legislative Department all powers, tend to the
destruction of the republican system of gov
ernment and the civil liberties of the people.
9. Equal and exact justice to all Rlen, of
whatever State or persuasion. religious or po-
litical peace, commerce and honest friend
ship with ALI nations; entangling alliances
with none; the support Of the State Govern
ments in all their rights. as the most compe-
tent administration of our domestic concerns
and the surcst buwark against anti-republi-
can tendencies the preservation of the Gem
eral Government in it's whole constitutional
vigor, as the sheet anchor of peace at home
and safety abroad a jealous care of the rights
of election by the people and the supremacy of
the civil over the military authority.

Suppression of the Press.

The following letter was published in
the Tuscaloosa Monitor. Thus Grant
wields the sword. Thus he tramples
down the rights of the citizen, and the
freedom of the Democratic press and
party to oppose him in the South
TUSCALOOSA, June 27, 1868.
Mr.. EpIToR: The whole press of the
country, without regard to party, should
utter a manly protest against the mon
strous and unconstitutional war of mill
tarv satraps upon Democratic newspa
pers. The seizure and suppression of
the Independent Monitor, published
here, is obviously step toward the COM
plete muzzing OF the conservative press
preliminary to the approaching Presi :
Dental campaign. Col. Shepherd has
no doubt learned enough of military
tactics to know, that when your adver-
sary's guns are spiked, you can charge
and capture his position the more easily.
The frivolous pretext of this partlsan
procedure is so manifest as not to es-
cape the observation of the most stupid.
The charge is, that the editor, MIR.
Rvland Randolph, warned incendiary
politicians that, if they remained here,
they would have "to run the risk OF sus-
pension by hemp" in the reaction that
is rapidly taking place in the country.
This warning is construed into language
"tending to intimidate," and is forth
with pronounced to be violation OF that
iniquitous press-gagging bull of General
Meade's known as Order No 81. Little
attention is paid to the fact that in sub
seouent issue of the Monitor, soon alter
wards published, the editor, in speaking
of the same incendisry politicians, said,
at would be both impolitic aud unchris-
iian to do bodily injury to these men,
The misconstruction of his meaning bet
ter served the purpose the Montgomery
tetrarcb. in his energetic efforts to mon
grelize the State of Alabama, crushing
out virtue and intelligence under the
brutal heels Of ignorance and vice.
This outrage is no matter OF mere per-
sonal wrong. The fact that three or four
thousand dollars worth of the private
property Of Ryland Randolph is seized
bv violence, and forcibly retained by the
military authorities, in the very teeth of
the national Constitution, is mere dust
in the balance compared with the crying
wrong that free press is throttled-a
press that was "unawed by influence and
unbribed by gain" The approaches of
despotism are gradual aud deceptive.
Firs, we had Punic faith, next the silken
tie of military parole, then the hempsn
cord Of Acknowledgement, then the iron
chain Of negro suffrage, now the ihrot-
Ting Of victims rendered voiceless by the
murder Of the free press
The question suggests itself, will the
commander in chief of the srmy Of the
United States-the President quietly
tolerate this unlawful assassination Of his
supporters by the partisan officer who,
by a public order, forbade the soldiers to
express their appreciation Of the political
principles Of a political candidste2 Is
/, a crime that Federal soldiers should
rroan for Grant, and that free press
should praise the President Of the
Union7

Congress brings the rebel States back

of game the Republican leaders have al

Senators from these two States have been

We look to see the action of the Pres

ton as will throw the impeachment
market thoroughly into the shade. With
johnson in the White House it is dan
Qerous step to admit these seven States.
Unless carefully watched they will prove
a serious danger to the loyal party. This
peril is more specially imminent because
the land has been left so exclusively In
the hands of white secessionists. The
negro votes the Republican ticket at the
risk Of starvation, if not OF life. Besides
this, the negro voters lack organization.
They are jast now especially liable to be
deceived IN their candidates. The South
