Radical Nominations for Giles County.

Monday last, we learn that the Hon. j. 2.
G. Reed was nominated for reelection as
Representative from this county, and
prof" CLARK. colored school teacher Of
this place, recommended to the Corners
Vile Convention, to assemble hereafter. as
a suitable person to represent the Pictorial
District, composed of the counties of Giles,
Lincoln and Marshal. Should he receive
the nomination, and be ambitious enough
to accept it, Lincoln and Marshall will
hoist his tail so high on the day Of election
that he will hardly know be was in the

qualifications for the position than most o.

In fact we are disposed to credit him with
too much good sense to suffer such party
to N axe a tool OF him in this way. The
leaders know that there is DO earthly chance
to elect proscriptive Radical to this posi-
ton, white or black, and they have thrown
out this bait to tickle the colored element,
nothing more.

Fearful Scenes of Riot and Bloodshed

On the 9TH inst. fearful and bloody
hot occurred in Washington City, the oc-
casion of the municip pal election. Infuriate
radical negroes swore that no Democrat

Stokes and Senter.
The key-notes of the canvass we're sound-
ed at Nashville on Saturday last. The
opening speeches were made by General
Stokes and Gov. Senter. and the issues
we're fully made up, and the breach be-
tween the two rendered beyond any hope Tor
fear) of being healed. Stokes spoke first
and reiterated his old policy of negro equal
Iity and rebel Acknowledgement. In Janu
airy last Mr.. Thornburg and Others, mem
bers OF Gen. Stokes party, addressed him a
note asking if it was true that he was in
favor of universal suffrage. He replied as
follows
GENTLBMEN-Your letter o: the 26th
inst. is before me. You say that it is ru-
mored and currently reported that ''you
(me) are in favor of universal suffrage. -
/ answer, emphaticaly. that am not, nor
never have been, and DON: know that l
ever viii be.
When the killing of Union men ceases,
the heliish organization of the Kuklux dis
banded and the laws are observed, then
| am willing to entertain a proposition to
amerd the State Constitution so as to allow
the DISTINGUISHED to come In gradually by
providing, that the Legislature may, by a
two thirds vote, remove the disabilities of
those who petition and come well recon-
mended by their loyal neighbors," &c.
In his speech on Saturday last General
Stokes reiterated this with emphasis. The
Banner says "his entire speech was made
to and for the colored people presept-and
not for them, either, since lis position was
such as to array them in antagoDism to
their disfranchised fellow citizens in his
ow I4nalf-not theirs.

He seemed to speak not SO much for
himself as the representative of national
rePubicanism, and as if filed with its in

speaking the right words and he was the
proper man to say them. He spoke them
like man. fearlesrly, unequivocally, feel
