From the Knoxville Press and Herald. 16th.l
1t Is well for the people-the Senter
Republicans cspecially--to beware of the
low arts and cunning designs of the
Stokes faction. Their latest dodge has
been TO start the report that the Demo-
Gratis are now preparing to bring out a
candidate for Governor. This has been
originated and circulated with view TO
teIrify the Senter Republicans. We
need hardly say there is no truth what
ever, nor even semblance of truth, in any
such rumor. We have repeatedly spoken
for ourselves on this subject. and we now
reiterate that we shall support Gov. Sem
ter until the day ofthe election, and should
denounce as earnestly and as bitterly
as any Republican journal in the State,
any attempt to commit such an act of bad
faith as the bringing out of another can.
didate. The Democrats and Conservs.
tives, without exception, have pledged
themselveyto the same thing. q The sad
experience of Mr.. Leatherman should
satisfy the most dstrustful that the Con-
servatives are giving to Governor Senter
a sincere support. We do not know of
single Democrat or Conservative in the
State who desires another candidate.
The idea is preposterous, and we only
refer to the subject to caution the Senter
Republicans against any such canards
that the Stokes managers may put in
circulation. III u III Ia 0OiigBl9T sl

auishsd the laying of her portion Of wire,
found it too stormy to attempt to transfer
the end remaining on board to the

portion. The men therefore buoyed
it at sea, after which the entire squadron
made for and put into Nina bay, Cape
Breton. This movement was absolutely
necessary for the purpose Of repairing
slight damage which occurred to the
payingsoat machinery on board the
Chiltern, which was occasioned by par
tial collision between that vessel and
another during Friday night.

and came into Sidney by overland. in
tending to proceed next morning by way

From ths Knoxville Press and Herald, lctl

| From the knoxYille fress anu uerhiu, iotn.l
1t will be remembered that at Mary
vile, Newport, Elizabethton and other
points in East Tennessee, Stskes OK
prra.sssi his utter adherence OF rebel
suffrage" declaring that "he would have
his tongue torn out by the roots and his
body severed in twain before he would
consent 10 the enfranchisement Of the
| rebels in Tennessee" 1t was predicted
| at the time that when he got back to Mid
die and West Tennessee, he would change
his tactics and make loud professions OF
liberality, and the predictions have been
fully verified. In the course of the dis
cussion at Jacksonville, last Monday,
Stokes, knowing that he was addressing a
crowd largely DISTINGUISHED, used the
following language:
In replying to Governor Senter, Col.
Stokes said: lN icii
AT Knoxville / boosted that was q
better suffrage man than Seuter--that
while Senter was voting to fasten the
irons upon you, was voting to relieve
your disabilities. / am in favor of call
ing q Convention Immediately to take
measures to relieve the people" p.
Another account says that he told the
people "his plan would enfranchise every
man in the State within two months after
the meeting of the Legislature, while
"Senter's plan would require at least two
years." and upon this ground he appealed
to the people to support him as the bet
ter suffrage man of the two.
We call the special attention of those
Stokes men in this end of the State,
who profess to support him upon princi-
pie, to these extraordinary declarations.
What confidence can be reposed in q
man who is so lost to shame as to resort
to such glazing and disgusting duplicity
aud hypocrisy We have some respect
for man who, planting himself upon q
principle, labors consistently and honor
ably to maintain it. But miserable
charlatan, deceitful trimmer, as Stokes
has demonstrated himself to be, is only
worthy of an honest peoples contempt
There are hundreds of men in East
Tennessee, who personally prefer Gov
ernor Senter to Stokes, but who have
thus far adhered to the fortunes of the
latter because they have supposed him
honestly devoted to the policy which be
first announced at Nashville. What OBJ
legation can such men longer feel TO bind
them to the support of such falsifier OF
his own record as Stokes? To all such
we would say that it is now worse than
folly-looking at the matter from the
very best standpsint--to persist in an
effort to keep the masses of Tennessee.in
state of political slavery. Two things
are now well assured: First, the enfran-
chisement of every man in Tennessee;
and, second, the election Of Governor
Senter on the 9th of August by an over
Rhelming majority.

calling the Legislature together to ratify

are unable to +, qualify would, in
this case, remain absent until the
Constitution had been ratified by Con.

would present themselves and qualify
under the State Constitution from which
the test oath had been expunged. Should
there not, however, be found quorum

the Commanding General will then defer

new elections to be held to fill the seats
which will be declared vacant by reason

A SETTLER.

We see it mentioned that rumor had
gained credence to the effect that Mr.
John Cubbins could not qualify for Sena
tor if elected, and that the Executive
Committee intended to trot out Mr.. i. s.
Ayres. This is too absurd to want a
square denial; but as it has been men
toned publicly and privately, we will
add our stamp to the already crushed
bantling of some idle gossiper. In the
first place, resolution was adopted in
the County Convention strictly guarding
against the nomination of any candi-
date who could not in legal and
constitutional manner take his seat when
elected, and the rule was not violated by
the convention intentionally or otherwise.
Mr.. Cubbin's letter of acceptance, which
we publish to-day, is settler on this
point. 5I r.
Secondly: The Executive Committee
has no power, and we presume no mem
Der claims such, to bring out candidate
even for Shelby county, and much less
for the Senatorial district If an emer-
geucy existed requiringa new candidate,
the time between now and the election
would be ample for the calling and hold
ing Of Senatorial convention. We will
remark further in this connection, that
the committee in question have enough to
do, and are held to an accountability
rigid enough. in the discharge OF their
legitimate duties, without usurping any
of the powers of the people. The masses
are jealous of their rights and the voice
they are about TO have in public affairs,
| in which they are level-headed. And II
we know anything Of the spirit Of that
committee, they will never have to COM
plain that it has officially gone into the
business of making candidates.

urge the Administration to take decided
stand in favor of the election of Stokes

little difference with Tennessee which
side Grant takes. The State is in the
Union as firmly as Massachusetts, and
Grant has nothing to say about it, 10
Virginia it was otherwise, for the State
was unreconstrueted, and Grant could
keep them out or in as he pleased.
