In the course of hs remarks. Governor Senter en-
phasized one point, and that that in Tennessee
there must be no prescription account of rebel
lion race, or color; suffrage and the fullest poti-
cal and civil rights must be free to all He contin-
ued by saying that the wounds of the past must
heal, and that brotherly love and fraterna feeling
was now to be cultivated all round in Tennessee.
He thought the circumstances were ripe for new
party, which would discard dead issues and act
upon the living present. Bourbouism on the one
hand and proscriptive radicalism on the other
should be ignored and set aside, and new depart
DIRE taken which would tend to liberal and progress
sive ideas and measures. The young men of the
State be sail carried the recent election with such
impetus that the old judges were almost unable to
decide how far they had gone ahead. The wisdom
of age should temper Young America, but it was
striding along like an Arab courser.
