Mr.. Clubhouse, in the meantime, was
still sitting in his closet, tormented with
curiosity, but yet determined not to be
seen till the intruder should have left
his house.

as he entered the room with Mrs. Out.

made no reply, but escaped and went up
to her sister. "My poor little boy, j" said
TIevelyan, taking the child and placing
1t on his knee. u suppose you have for
gotten your unfortunate father" Inc
child, of course, said nothing, but al
lowed himself to be kissed.
"He is looking very well, said Mrs
Clubhouse.
sis hei dare say he is we'll. LOuey,
my boy, are you happyT The question Doi
was asked in a voice that was dlstha,
beyond compare, and 10 also remsineu
unanswered. He had been desired 10
sneak nicely to his papa; but how was
IL DossibIe that a child should speak
nicelv under such load of melancholy
aHe will not speak to me" said IreVel-
van. "Isuppose it is what ! might nave :.
expectea." Then the child was put OH
his knee en- to the floor, and began TO
simmer. "a few months since he would
sit there for hours, with his head upon
nv breast" said Trevelyan.
IA few months is long time IN the
life of such an infant" said Mrs. Out
house.
"He may go away" said Trevelyan.
Then the child was led out of the room
and sent up to his mother.
EMILY has done all she can to make
the child love your memory" said MIS-
Clubhouse.
"To love my memory! What, as
though were dead / will teach him
to love me as l am, Mrs. Clubhouse. l
do not think that it is too late. VIII
you tell your husband from me, with
my compliments, that / shall cause him
to be served with legal demand for

"But Sir Maruaduke will be here in

maduke has no authority over either
one or the other. l find my child
here, and it is here that l must look for
him. lam sorry that ysu should be
troubled, but the fault does not rest
with me. Mr.. Clubhouse has refused to
give me up my own child, and l am
driven to take such steps for his re-
covery as the law has put within my
reach" .
"Why did you turn your wife out OF

house, boldly.
81 did not turn her out OF doors. l

her everything that she could want.
You know what happened. That man

Mrs. Clubhouse did attempt to show

From the Nashville Press ami Times, 9th.
Last night, on College street, we
stumbled upon n character. He was
sitting OH dry goods box, looked tired,
low spirited: we stopped to observe
him, when we discovered he was softly
humming, "Take me homo to dio;" he
gave himself entirely to his sentiment.
After finishing the song lie Grated as
follows -" Wonder ii Grisham's in

my Stokes, why did you wait to take
the suffrage shute? The Eagle was too
late that time. Guess I'll go to the
"Old Folks at home," when get there
I'll say:-"Dear mother. I've come
home to die;' and she'll say -" My
own, my noble boy" and then the old
mani let in his lip and may say -" Ais

At this he raised himself and walked

The election in Tennessee, if contest
ed at all, must be contested in Tenncs-
see, under the laws of Tennessee, and
by the proper authorities of Tennessee.
Let Col. Stokes, who is member of
Congress, accept the result of the cleo
ton gracefully. 1t is no personal de-
feat it is defeat of the policy which
he advocated, and which at this time
finds no supporters, save those who do
not wish the Union re-established and
peace and industry resumed. We have
in a previous article refused to believe
any of the stories attributing to Col.
Stokes an intention to resist the cleo
ton of Gov. Sentcr by force. He is too
old politician, and has too much at
stake in an honorable future, to crafty
his enemies by an attempt at anything
Of the kind

NASHVILLE, Aug. 10.-Gov. Senter ar
rived in the city this evening and met
with a brilliant reception. He was es-
corted from the railroad depot to the
City Hotel, where he made feeling
and felicitous speech in response to the
welcoming address of ex-Gov. Neil s.
Brown. In the course Of his remarks
Gov. Senter emphasized one point and
that was that In Tennessee there must be
no more prescription on account Of re-
bellion, race, or color. Suffrage and the
fullest political rights must, he said, bc
free to all. He continuedabY psaying
that the wounds of tho past nity6k be heal
ed up, and that brotherly and frater-
nal feeling must now be cultivated.
All around in Tennessee, he thought,
the surroundings were ripe for new
party which would discard dead issues
and act up to the living present. Bour-
bonism on the one hand and proscrip-
tive Radicalism on the other should be
ignored and set aside, and a new depar-
ture taken which would tend to liberal
and progressive ideas and measures.
The young men of the State, he said,
carried the recent election with such an
impetus that the judges were almost
unable to decide how far they had gone
ahead. He urged that the wisdom Of
the age should temper the Young Amer
lea that is striding along like an Arabs
course.
