VOICE FROM YOUNG TENNESSEE.
The Constitutional Convention is "Un
faH accoDpH," and already your col
umns have named various gentlemen, as
equitable persons to represent Davidson

within their power TO select at least one
of the delegates that shall represent Da-
wilson county in the Convention, and to
present to them the name of Robert
l.. Cauthers, Jr., as one well fitted to be
their representative. Mr.. Caruthers Is
not only well known by his many com
rades who are citizens of this county,
but he is well and favorably known to
our entire community. And | believe
that will be sustained in opinion by al
who know him when | venture the asser.
ton that in point of talent and ability
he will compare favorably with 1
| large proportion of those who are spoken
of as candidates throughout the entir'
| State.
| believe that all of the gentlemen, st
far spoken of, in this county have figure
in public life, some of them but recently
as candidates before the people. But II i
only now, and the coming election
is the first one since the sub
! version of our Constitution, that tn,
Young men of our State have the privilege
to exercise the right of franchise, the very
| exercise of which in this instance has TO
one of its main objects to forever guar
antee to them this unalienahle preroga
| tive.
Caruthers is one of us, let us call hin
out as our candidate, and uniting upol
him in solid column make him one of GU
county delegates.

A card From 1Tr. DeMoss.

To the Editors of the Union and American:
notice in your issue of the 14th, call,
from a number Of gentlemen of high char
acter and standing, upon me to become a
candidate to represent this county IN the
Constitutional Convention soon to assem-
HE in Nashville. In response to this call,
and many private solicitations of friends
TO become a candidate for the Convention,
I have to say, that while believe posi-
ton of such high trust should not be
sought after, yet no citizen has the night to
decline his services when required by the
people among whom he has been born and
reared. Therefore, if it is the desire OF
the people that I should serve them in this
capacity, l will do so.
