Of immigration,
BoKUM STILL AT LARGE.

The everlasting aid irresponsible Boz
kun is now bloyiating in Cincinnati.
We don't know who will be held re-
SpOnsible in the great and final final ad-
iuStment of accounts for having inflicted
so great nuisance and humbug upon the
country as Bokum, but we do think that
in justice to the people Of Tennessee,
both natives and foreigners, it is high
| time measures were being taken to abate
him. lie, of course, has been giving
| loud expressions Of his views in Gin
cinnati, and we perceive the editors OF
the Times have been sold by his preten>
sions. They speak seriously of him, as
a representative Of the foreign popula-
ton in Tennessee, and give editorial
prominence to his views Of the social
situation in Tennessee. He is repre-
scented by the Times as saying in regard
| to our State:
There had been until very lately the
aristocracy of planters and Shareholders
on the one hand, and slaves and ignorant
poor whites on the other. No middle
class has existed to carry forward pro
gresSive ideas and insure social and
political stability"
None but an incorrigible ass-to say
nothing worse-would thus speak of the
social condition Of Tennessee, either now
or before the war. In no portion of the
civilized world has the social and political
influence Of what Bokum styles the
middle clasS"-the intelligent, industris
Gus peOple--been more signally marked
than in Tennessee. Yet the Times
gravely assures US
"Mr. Bokum's efforts are in behalf Of
the middle class in Tennessee. He desires
10 strengthen it by inducing Germans,
Irish and Americans Of solid character to
emigrate to that State, and enjoy the ad
vantages which the reconstruction OF her
social system and the development Of her
resources will afford He will extend
his operations to Europe, for the purpose
OF inducing many to embark with Ten,
nesSee for their destination"
We hope Bokum will extend his OPP
erations TO Europe" Immediately. Let
HIM not stand upon the order of his go
ing, but go at once. But let him not
pretend to be a representative OF the
German citizens of Tennessee. if there
is an intelligent German in Tennessee
or Irishman, eitheT-whO endorses Boz
kun. or feels the least interest IN his ia
bors," we have yet to meet with hIm.
On the contrary, so far as our personal
observation has extended, the Germans
Of Tennessee regard him as a stupenous
humbug, and in their behalf we protest
against his being received abroad as their
representative, IN any true sense.

CURE OF SCROFULA-A DESPERATE
CASE-TESTIMONV OF ONE OF
NASHVILLE'S OLDEST AND BEST
KNOWN MERCHANTS

I HEREBY CERTIFY. THAT IN FEBRUA-
L ~. 1860. Mrs. Armstrong, of Indiana,
brought her child. then four years old, to Nash
vile to have it examined by the Professors OF
the Nashville Medical College. then in session.
Its disease was serOfula, and it was covered
with sores from the crown of its head to its feet.
1t was completely blind, and bad never been
able to stand alone. The doctors told her there
was no cure for it, and it was useless even to
try to give it relief Having seen the child,
and being acquainted with its mother. advised
her to call in DR.. Westervelt. and let him see
it, which she did. He told her at once that he
could cure 1t, and would warrant a cure if she
would take his medicine home with her. and
give it to the child according to his directions;
which she agreed to do. In three months from
that time she wrote to me, stating that the
child was entirely we'll. There was not sore
about it, its sight was restored. and it could run
about as smart as any child of its age. Ibis
cure was performed over nine years ago. know
the chi d is still living. and has had no return
of the disease; also know that DIR. Westervelt
has since cured other members of the family of
the same disease. ! give this statement as
above with pleasure. hoping others may be
benefited by it. ROBERT SMITH,

COMMISSIONER BOKUM.

The Knoxville Pr ss and Herald
is positively discourteous to Com
missioner of Immigration Bckum.
1t irreverently applies to this dis
tinguished agent of the State, the
man who has been crowding our
waste places with the flower of
European immigration, at least on
paper, the epithet of "incorrigible
ass" because forsooth in Cincinnati
a few days ago he INDUCED his pro-
pensity to talk. The gift of CAB is
well developed in the commissioner,
and if he does not induce every
body to come to Tennessee, buy
lands and settle here, it will not be
for the want of q smooth tongue.
We cannot say that he has been re
markably successful in his work,
except in one particular, and that
is, he. is good talker and a good
traveller. In these respects the Of
fee and the commissioner are
exactly suited, if it is expected that
he shall talk incontinenuy and
travel around extensively. We sus-
pect the Press and Herald has some
design on the commissioner, per-
haps to get him out Of the comfort
able berth which was fixed up for
his especial benefit. He is only one
Of the large number of men who
have been pensioned upon the tax
payers of this State, the greater
portion of whom have had no voice
in the matter. They have had to
foot the bills and that was all. Still
it is a pity to disturb so genial a
gentleman in the warm nest which
the Legislature made specially for
him. The following is the irrever-
ent puff which the ungracious Press
and Herald gives the Commissioner
