WHAT NENT

The Senatorial question being now dis
posed of, the pccplcwin expect our Legs
laturc to 20 promptly and vigorously 10
work at It's legislative business. Among
The most important questions, and Ger
tainly the two which should receive the
first attention, are the Convention and the
Fifteenth Amendment The Convention
should be held at as early day as prac-
ticablc, allowing however ample time from
the final passage of the Till to the day of
election 10 secure the election of suitable
candidates, and 10 permit full discussion
of the questions which viii arise in the
Convention. As to the number of dele
rates which should he selected there may
De some diversity of opinion. II has been
usual in some States 10 have Conventions
to consist of twice As many delegates As
members of the General Assembly. That
would be in this State Dis. In some
states the custom is to have twice as many
DELEGATES rs members fthc Lower House.
That would be with us lGS. In still other
States they have usually had their Con
ycntions composed of the same number OF
DELEGATES as there are members in the
General Assembly. That would he lO9.
There are some members Of the present
General Assembly who are in favor of
having the Convention composed OF even
"a less number than the Legislature. While
the condition of our State Treasury is
such as to require all practicable economy,
We doubt whether a less number than the
number Of members of The Legislature
would Dee satisfactory to the people
of the State. The action of} the
Convention is far more solemn and bind
inc and not 50 easily revoked as the action
of a General Assembly. \ Convention
makes the fundamental law of the State
subject to the provisions of the Constitu-
ton of the United States. 1t is therefore
highly proper that it should bc, as far as
possible, a representation of the people,
and it is doubtful whether a less number
of delegates than the aggregate number of
the two Houses Of the Legislature would
be generally acceptable. But whatever is
done should De done quickly.
We cannot suppose that the proposed
Fifteenth Amendment will delay the Gen
eral Assembly very long. II is too palpa-
bic A violation Of the organic principles OF
the government; it goes even further than
the old Federalists; it is too obhteratiye
Of all the doctrines of State rights to be
entertained a moment by any except
Radical consolfdationists. 1t should be
taken up and rejected with the least pos
sible ceremony.

THE SENATOR EIFCT.

The Hon. Henry Cooper, Senator elect
from Tennessee for the term commencing
on the fourth of March, 1871, was born in
Columbia Maury county, in this State, on
the 22d of August, 1927 His father who
is yet living at a venerable age, was citi-
zen of high standing and repute as long
since as the date of the birth of the son
who has just attained the high distinction
of Senator His patenal ancestry were
early inhabitants of this region, the grand
father in that line being a settler of Hays
boro, in this county. The maternal stock
were immigrants 70 this State from South
Carolina-the FriersOns-a family of eX-
tensive connection and high responsibility.
Judge Cooper, the Senator, is a younger
brother of the Hon. w. F. Cooper, of
this city, and the Hon. Edmund Cooper,
of Bedford county. The former was
elected Judge of the Supreme Court in
1861, and the latter was a member of Con
gress from 1865 to 1867, and was Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury in the latter
part of Mr. Johnson's administration.
Judge Cooper was educated at jackson
College at Columbia, and studied law at
Shelbyville with his brother Edmund, and
commenced the practice of his profession
in connection with him at that place His
first public service was in the General As
sembly of 1854 As the Representative of
the Floatcrial district of Bedford and
Rutherford In 1867, he was the Repre-
sentative of Bedford county. At the out
break of the war in 1861, he declared him
self an adherent of the Union cause, and
maintained that position throughout the
contest. In 1862, he was appointed Judge
by GOV. johnson of the Judicial Circuit
in which he resided, and held that Office
until 1861. In the early part of that
year, he resigned the Judgcship TO accept
the Professorship in the Lebanon Law
School made vacant by the death of the
venerable Nathan Green. Last year he
removed to this city and engaged in the
practice of his profession; and in August
of this year was elected to the State Sen
ate from this county.
In the political nomenclature of former
days, Judge Cooper was a Wing. As
Circuit Judge, he delivered the opinion on
the constitutionality of the franchise acts
of this State in the case of Ridley rs. Shcr-
brooke in lS66-a decision which was
subsequently oycTulcd by the Supreme
Court, and involving questions yet pend
ing for final adjudication in the Supreme
Court of the United States.

The Great VitnIizer.

This title may be fairly given to a restorative
which has taken precedence of all other tonic and
Alternative preparations for period Of nearly
twenty years During that long interval HOSTEL
TER's STOMACH BITTERs may be truly said to
have enjoyed unrivallcd popularity. Many prcpar-
atoms have been got up to compete with it. but
they have all fallen into its wake or sunk into OBJ
livion for lack Of patronage. From the first this
now wOrld-rcnowned Vegetable Tonic has been
both incidentally and financially successful Every
wear has added to the number Of its friends, and
the demand for it, based solely upon the expert
mental proofs Of its excellence as preventive and
curative, seems to have assignable limit. The
medical profession sanction and approve its use,
and it is now at the head of the class of medicines
to which it belongs, the admitted, undsputed Sow
EEEIGN TONIC OF THE AGE. The statistics of the
United States Revenue Department will verify tho
statement that it stands alone and unapproached in
the magnitude of its sales as compared with those
of any other proprietary remedy advertised ON this
side of the Atlantic.
TIE EXPLANATION of this fact may be COM
prised in few words. HOSTETTER'S STOMACH
BITTERS is at once the purest, the safest and the
most potent of all vegetable tonics, and the best
antidote to oyery variety of malarious disease.
Hence it IL especially adapted to the present season
of chilling dews and unwholesome vaPors.

, MoRn on INFORMATION.


There were some of those Conservatives
who united with the Radicals yesterday
whom we believe to be as ardently and as
honestly opposed TO Radicalism as our
selves To them we wish to utter word
of information. There are those in this
State who have opposed Radicalism that
are now in favor of forming a new party.
Its objects and principles are underlined.
Its object, we suppose, will be to get the
loayes and fishes, and as that will be to its
interest, we presume it will be its princi-
pies. There are still others as bitter
against the Northern opponents of Radi-
calism as they are against the Radicals
themselves. For ourselves we desire dis
tinctly to announce that we expect to con-
tinue the fight with Rrdicalism in all its
forms. In that struggle, "sink or swim,
survive or perish" we are for the prin-
ciples of the constitution as it was.
We want no Fifteenth Amend.
ment. We want no new party
largely infused with Radicalism.
We want no leagues or combina
tons with Radicalism to defeat the wishes
of the people. We are unwilling to ap
prove or assent to any sacrifice of any Of
our principles or of any of our men tC
crafty, the whims, caprices or wishes o.
those who have kept us in political bond
age for four long years, and would gladly
continue to keep us there until the cracl
of doom if they had the power "Th'
Constitution is our motto, and we viii
willingly join hands with any man o
party that viii stand by the colors of Tn
constitution at all hazards and to the las
extremity. To those who wish to sepa
rate from us to so after strange Gods W,
can only say: Go in peace, your God i
not our God. We cannot, we will no
bow down TO or worship Radicalism il
any form or shape that it may come.

CHANTS FAILURE.

The New York .Stu is edited by
Charles A. Dana, who was Assistant
Secretary of War under the notorious
Stanton, and is awarded the credit of
conducting that department Of the govern
ment in the bitter, yindictiyc spirit that
characterised it during the entire war
Mr.. Dana has loyal - record, and his
party associations have been of the strict
est of the Radical sect. In late num-
Der of his paper, Dana makes the follow
ing inquiry " Has the SIM treated Gen
Grant fairly" and then answers it thus
wise:
" Soon after Gen Grant became Prcsi-
dent, lac made 80 many appointments to
office of persons who had made large
pccmiary donations to him, that he
seemed to have adopted the system of
hcstOwing Office in return for money.
This was a shocking innovation on all
former practices and traditions in this
country. The whole American people
felt it to he such. The SIM gave expires
sion 10 that feeling. Has there ever been
one serious effort, from any quarter, to
controycrt the views of the Sun on this
subject!
AGAIN, when Gen. Grants foreign
policy, by its weakness, INDIGESTION, want
of character and anti-Amcrican sympa-
lhics, stood forth in glaring contrast with
the vigorous sentiments and statCsmanlikc
promises of his inaugural address, the
whole American people, bitterly disap-
pointed, changed their feeling toward the
President from one of admiration to one
of regret and pity. This new feeling was
plainly declared 10y the Su11;: and nowhere
has there been any serious attempt either
to deny its existence or to dispute IFS jus
tice
The SIN but confirms the general
opinion of the honest and intelligent men
of both parties, that the administration of
Gen. Grant is a failure, and that he has
demonstrated his utter nifmess for the
position to which he was chosen. No man
has ever occupied the presidential Office
who has shown 50 little adaptedness for
the ulSitiOn.
