THE LEGISLATURE
FIOaterial District.

NASHVILLE, July ], 1S69.-TO the peO-
pie of Davidson, Robertson, Montgomery
and Cheatham counties: Solicitations by
letter and in person received for the past
few weeks from every county in this floaie-
rial district, and representative, "a | am
induced to believe, of the solid and sub
slsntial portion of the constituency, have
brought me forward as a candidate for
Your suffrage for a seat in the next Legs
la ure.
In obedience to these calls, l hereby an
nounce myself candidate, and propose
to meet assemblies of the people on every
proper occasion before the 9th of Augus'.
| do not affect that / do not desire to be
elected, though, for myself | could more
profitably employ the time. But, believ-
ing that / understand the immediate BUSH
ness necessary for the promotion Of the
in crest of the people of the district and that
some precious legislative experience has
qualified me for the position, offer myself
am in favor Of the most prompt sclioL
that can be had by the Governor, the
Legislature, or the people in their soVer-
eign capacity under the Bill of Rights, or
all copjoined, to secure the assembling Of
a convention at the earliest practicable
moment, to amend the constitution and
laws, and remove all existing disabilities
in regard to the elective franchise. The
most feasible plan conformable to law, is
the best, and the one will favor by vote
and voice. The privileges now enjoyed
by any portion of the community, do
not propose to disturb.
The business interests of this constitu-
ency in several important features demand
legislation. The mercantile community,
in my judgment, needs a representative
who comprehends their wants and sympa-
thises with their condition under present
laws. The general economic interests of
the people in every pursuit, while requir-
ing broader and more liberal legislation,
should be under the discipline of stricter
statutes, and such measures shall receive
my support.
In, this brief card, these are all the
poinIs necessary to allude TO, but in be-
cominga candidate expect to meet voters
of every kind and deal frankly, and with
this view, lay my name before you.

Obituary.

II was with a sorrow TO which words
are too feeble to give expression that the
writer hereof heard of the death Of little
MARY ELLA DAvIDGE, eldest daughter Of
Jas. NJ Davidge, Esq of this city, which
distressing event TRANSFERRED on the 18th,
inst, a! the residence of her grandmother
in Louisville, in the 9th year of her age.
Mary Ella was an interesting and prom
Using child, having been most tenderly
trained and cared for, by the pious grand
parent whose utmost wish it was to fit
her sacred charge for life of usefulness
and make her wise unto salvation. A few
weeks ago she came, bright picture of
happiness and hope, on visit to this city,
to gladden. the heart of loving father
and spend here few weeks of the sum-
mer vacation. Her brief stay Was very
happily employed, and while here she
gained the love and affection of many who
had not previously seen her. Soon after
returning home, Mary was stricken down
by disease, which bstiled the skill of ply
sicians and babe defiance to the entreaties
of affection. 10 death alone was there re-
lief for the patient little sufferer. Yes
Ere sin could blight and sorrow fade,
Death came with friendly care:
The opening bud to heaven conveyed.
And babe it blossom there.
Thus little children-the flowers of earth
are in the providence Of the Great Faith
er removed from this sinful world, that
they NAV bloom forever, in the cline Of
Paradise. So Jesus taught in saying,
"Suf1er the little children to come unto
me, and forbid them not, for such is The
Kingdom Of Heaven" Thus it is that
he aven il made beautiful, with the flows
ers gathered from earth. Bright and
happy little Ella, thy spirit pure and in
nocent, ia with the God who gave it brief
existence here.
The circumstance that the falheI Of our
loved little friend, was not able to reach
her before the hour of dissolution was
indeed a painful one. Photographed for as
soon as her malady assumed threatening
character, he went with all possible haste
to the call Of sacred affection, hut suffered
the great disappointment of not reaching
Louisville before the death of his precious
child. For grief like his, there is no
consolation, but that to be found in chris
tan hope-the meeting of his sainted
treasures in happy existence beyond the
earthly pilgrimage. j.

the reputation Of being the handsomest
man in the profession, was absent yester-
day morning when one of his cases came
