THE RESUGr IN TENNESS En- U FTAEke
ROUT OF THE RADICALS.

NAsHvnGE. August 6.-~The returns show
that SeDter has carried Middle and Western
Tennessee by sweeping majority. Making
all allowances for Stokes probable majority in
East Tennessee. the STAKE has gone twenty-five
thcusand'to thirty Thousand for Senter. It il
probable that the Consel vatives will have
majority in both branches OF the Legislature,
as thateticket was eleoted in all dlstIacss carried
by Serser.
. WARRINGTON, August cit is generally con-
'ceded that Tennessee has gone so- Soa:eS
overwhelmingly. No county as &sr as heard
from gives Stokes majority.
Tho New York Tribune says: For a long
time the result Of the Tennessee election has
been conceded onsboth Sides. The fight made
10y Mr.. Stokes has been the hardest kind Of
uphill work, and atis chances have diminished
ssaore and more certainly as thest;nas tor voting
sdrew near. The few returns e. hand as we
write. indicate the majority for Senter ut even
q larger figure than claimed by his partisans :"
The Herald says: IA most gratifying point
: OF the news is shat the contest passed of
quietly. and that all the reEeshment saloons
were closed dumpg the day."
The World says: 1t is very gratifying in
view Of the efforts made By a portion Of Grants
Cabinet to secure the election of that bold
Radical. Stokes More important than this.
however, is the probability indicated by the
returns that majority OF the members Of tho
Legislature just elected are Conservatives,
thus sparing the nation the disgrace Of the
addition TO the United States Senate
OF another Radical Whether the sepator
to be will be Andrew johnson, or Bailie Pey-
ton. or Emerson Etherldge, or some person
whose name has not yet transpired, remains
to be seen. It is enough il the Radicals have
been beaten in a st,te which they have held
by the throat for years through system Of
.dlsfranchisement as sweeping as it was out
rageous. Thus one by one the States that
voted for Grant and Colfax are repenting Of
'their folly and conrageously ranging them-

The officers and members of the HOPE FIRE EN-
CINE COMPANY would respectfully inform the
citizens of Charleston that their present hand en-
gine is very much out OF repair and will require
large outlay of money to put 1t In good working
condition They feel satisfied that 1t would be use
less expenditure Of money to repair hand engine at
this time. especially whom steam takes precedence
over that which requires manual labor. The engine
now In use has been tn active service for over
twelve years.
In consideration of the above stated facts. they
havs resolved to purchase a substantial steamer.
located IN one largest and wealthiest wardsy
the CITY, Ward No. 4. They feel confident that the
services Of such steamer would be much more re.
qusite than hand engine in times Of copnagraton.
and for tn purpose they have concluded to appeal
to our citizens for aid to carry out cir plans It
has BEEN long tune since this company has called
upon the public for assistance. from the very fact
that at the time they procured the present engine.
more than one-half the amount was taken from its
treasury to make the purchase
The following Committee have been appointed to
canvass the various Wards Of the city to solicit sub.
scrptions from such Of our citizens % appreciate
