GRANrINA QUANDAKY.

Two United States Senators are
to be chosen by the recently elected
Legislature in Virginia Gen.
Candy is accused of seeking to
manipulate that body SO as to secure
the election of himself as one of
them, while Grant is DESTROYS of
having his brother in law, DIR.
Sharpe, who is now Marshal of the
District of Columbia, elected. The
matter is thus referred 10 in Wash
ington dispatch of the 18th inst. to
the Louisville Express:
"Virginians, who have been very hope
| full Of the future condition OF affairs m
their State since,the recent election, are
now considerably depressed at the re-
ports that Candy intends exacting the
test oath from members of the Legisla-
ture, and giving the seats of such as can
not take it to the parties receiving the
| next highest number of votes, the result
| of which will be the election of two
ultra Radical Senators from Virginia.
| There is much uncertainty in the
State as to what action either the
President or General Sherman will take
in these premises, but here it is asserted
that Sherman, from military respect tol
Grants official superiority, will long hes
itate, despite his well known conserya-
tism, to venture a remonstrance against
this action of Candy. The Presidents
anxiety to secure place in the UniteC
States Senate from Virginia for hi
brother -inslaw, DIR. Sharpe, who is Mar
shall of this district, is no secret, and i
is charged that his intention to protec
the people of Virginia in their Legitimate
rights, resulting from the elective iran
c6ise, is partly due to his anxiety to plac.
Sharpe in the Senate. Candy and L. ID
Chandler are spoken of by the Radical
for the other Senatorship.

JUDGE DENT, who will be the can"
didate of the Conservative Repub-
licans for Governor of Mississippi,
and is a brother-in-law of Gen.
Grant, has been making the Presl-
dent ridiculous. He has written a
letter in reply to the President, in
which he protests against the sup
port and countenance which Grant
has given to the Radicals in the
the coming election in Mississippi.
He claims that the President foiled
the Radicals of that State in their
attempt to force the defeated con-
stitution upon the people, but that
now he gives them his support
Dent is, however, confident of the
success of the Conservative Repub'
licans.

DR.. A. III. GRESHAM, one Of the
editors of the late State Journal,
writes to the Memphis Ledger that
while in Memphis some six months
ago, lie learned that Gen. John
Eaton, Superintendent..of Public In
struction and editor-in-chief Of the
Memphis Post, "was plotting with
Barbour Lewis, of Memphis, Enos
Hopkins, of Nashville, and Pearne,
of Knoxville, in the interest of If
responsible carpet-baggers to have
Senter nominated for Governor"
Hopkins and the irresponsible
carpet bae5orp'' in this locality do
serted Senter when they heard the
crack of Boutwell's and CreswelP S
whips over their heads, and declared
for and voted for Stokes in the
hope of saving the federal offices To
which they had been appointed
They congratulated themselves on
having performed mastery flank
or rather retrograde movement
But it seems that while the Stokers
liked the treason, they despised the
traitors, and yesterday there were
rumors in the city of the removal o.
several federal ofiice-holders who
had PLAYED false to their first love
If these rumors shall prove true, il
must be confessed that there il
poetic justice in the decapitation o.
these men who make principle
secondary matter to the retention
of Office. So mote it be.

LET the friends of universal suffrage
firmly determines that the vic DRY gained
recently shall not be prostitutel to Demo-
cratic partisanism.-PreSsG and Times
In behalf of that class of citizens
to whom the term Democrat is
meant TO be applied, and which de-
scribes the msjority of men who
bore that appelIation before 1861 a
majority Of the old liae Wings Of
the State; and indeed every man, no
matter whether he espousedl the
federal cause in the civil war,
or sympathized with and sup
ported the rebellion, who has,
since May 1865, opposed the Rsdlr
cal party, we now and here declare
that they have manifested no dis
position TO prostitute the ''yictory
gained recently to which they
contributed at least three-fourths
of the numbers, to a partisan
purpose. The leaders of the
Democracy, as it existed before the
war, and the mass of that element OF
the Conservative party, have borne
themselves in a manner to particu
larly acquit them of such charge.
They have not obtruded their coun-
sells, nor have they been forward
Any intimation that they have
done so, or that they intend to
seize the occasion of the " revolu,
tion," as it is Silly styled, to thrust
themselves into undue prominence
is wholly gratuitous.

THE NEW PATTY MOVEMENT.

opposes in the following article the

The Paris (Tenn.) Intelligencer
opposes in the following article the
proposed new party:
1--WE have not been able to perceive
the sound policy or the necessity at this
time to organize new party out of the
old ones, or upon the ruins Of any that
may have fallen.
1.-THE purposes Of the recent great
movement of the people have not yet
been accomplished, and until they are
definitely and satisfactorily settled, we
confess that we are unable to divine any
good from the agitation of the political
waters. Whenever principles and meas
ures which are their offspring, shall pre-
sent themselves, then let every man
range himself where duty and patriotism
demands. Until then we shall remain
where we have always been, the uncom~
promising friend of the constitution-pure
and Misunderstanding each State to
prescribe its own electors and regulate
It's own internal affairs. But if not al
lowed to do so, we do not propose to 90
to fighting about it. No party Orgauiza-
ton exactly suits u.s. But we are moi
impractieable-we shall cooperate with
that which shall come nearest to our
standard. But we have other work to
do than to organize parties. The people
must be relieved of political disabilities
odious laws and burthensome taxation.
1t will be seen from an article
we publish elsewhere, that the
Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, the
old Wing organ Of Georgia, takes
very decided ground against the
formation of q new party. Tha
paper is opposed to repeating thu
Philadelphia folly. 1t thinks that
the South must look 10 the nationa

GRANTS SYMPATHY WITH THE
RADICALS.

Grant has at last fully identified
himself with the Radicals of Missis-
slppi. In an interview with Gen.
Tarbell, a Radical of Missis
sippi, Grant gave his views fully on
the situation in that State, and
upon political affairs generally in
the South. Wereproduce elsewhere
from the Washington Chronicle an
authoritative report of this inter
view. We presume this will settle
all doubt, if any existed, as to the
sympathy which Grant has all along
entertained for the Radical wing of
the Republican party. This paper
has never ceased to warn the people
of the South that Grant was not
their friend, and now we have the
proof that he is not in an authorita~
tive form. lie sympathized with
the Wells faction in Virginia and
the Stokes faction in Tennessee,
and the overwhelming defeat of
those factions seems not to have
modified his bitterness toward the
Southern people in the least. lie
could have materially aided the
people of the South in regaining
their rights and liberties, but he re-
fused to openly take sides when
they were struggling in Virginia
and Tennessee, and now that they
have triumphed in those States, he
throws the weight of his official in
nuence against them in Mississippi,
in the hope of thus aiding the Radi
Gals to carry that State. He has left
no doubt snow as to his sympathies
being with the oppressors OF the
white people of the South. The
Baltimore Gazette, speaking of this
authoritative exposition of the
views and sympathies of the Presl-
dent, says: General Grant occupies
position which once was, and
which by foreign nations still is, re-
garded as being one of the most
elevated and powerful to which any
of earth's rulers can attain, and it
is his duty, if he cannot do honor
70 his nation, to take heed that he
does not bring it into utter disre-
pute. He is living in crisis when
the question at issue is not whether
VIC can preserve the republic trans,
mitted by our fathers to our keep
mo but whether we can, for many

In the Memphis Avalanche Of the
18th, we find a letter addressed TO
the editors of that paper, by Dun
can X. McRae, Esq, of that city,
in which that gentleman declines,
for private reasons, to have his
name used as a candidate for the
Constitutional Convention.
Our Memphis contemporary in a
half column editorial refers to Mr..
McRae's letter in terms Of unquali
fed condemnation.
As showing the position of the
Avalanche and its correspon-
dent on the question Of q
State Convention and its duties in
the premises, we present the sub
Joined extract from Mr.. McRae's
letter. We are pleased TO note
that the Avalanche and Mr.. McRae
recognize the fact that the people
desire a Convention, and that they
have sound and wholesome ideas
as 10 what a Convention means.
The following is the extract from
Mr.. McRae:
In our State convention, it is to be
boped. there will be no intolerance or
prescription, but it is expected as 1T Is
needed, that the constitution, now en-
numbered with hasty and oppressive
legislation, will be wholly remOdeled and
reformed, and restored to its ancient
symmetry, with such addition and change
as, without marring its beauty, may
adapt it to the present condition OF
society.
This reformation will probably reach
nearly, if not quite, all of the elective
State offices below that of Governor.
when this is done, those who feel being
worthy by capacity and integrity to
stand. will be reelected 10y the whole
neonle. now that they have come by
heir rights, while those unfit will justly
20 by the board
II is to be hoped that the convention,
,ndar the instructions of people now
,yeIl taught by hard experience, will butt
81 the evils which stand so much in the
wav of advancement that fewer Offices
will be held by popular election; that
iudieial Offices will be held by more IN"
genendent tenure, and municipal govern
nfnts will be regulated more by those
wbo of necessity support them; that the
money laws, the laws of landlord and
Liant and the lien laws, will be so modl'
fed as to promote the public convenience
and prosperity, and do more even'handeo

THE Jackson (Tenn.) Wing

says:
"As Wing of the olden time we say
the Wing party is dead, and cannot be
revived. As a man not blind to the
events of the time we have no hesitation
in saying that the Democratic party is
dead, and may no more be resurrected
than may the dead of the last century.
When it is remembered that but
for the refusal by Radical Con-
gross TO allow the people of Virginia,
Mississippi and Texas to vote, and
the Acknowledgement of so large a
portion of the citizens of West
Virginia, Tennessee and Missouri,
the Democrats would have elected
Seymour and Blair, it must be con-
fessed that this opinion ofour Jack
son contemporary is rather prema-
ture. 1t certainly marshals a ire
mendous army of voters for a dead
party.
