P1TTsBURG, Pa, Dec, 8, 1868.
Messrs. GEO. P. RowELL Il Co.,
Gentlemen.-One year ago with much hesita-
ton we gave you an advertisement for one of
your Lists of one Hundred local papers; a very
short time thereafter we unheSitatingly added
two more lists of One Hundred papers.
But short time elapsed before we were in
CURED of on every side for "Colburn's Patent
Red Jacket AK" proving to US that your plan of
Lists had reached the very parties to whom we
wanted to introduce the new patent AK.
The year having now nearly gone by, we can
not but believe your system of advertising by
Lists of local papers" is just the kind of adver-
Using we want, and we to-day forward you an
order still adding one more List of One Hundred
papers, making now altogether four (4 Lists of
One Hundred Q00) local papers.
The more We talk with newspaper agents and
editors agents the more satisfied we are that the
arrangement we have made with you is prefera-
BILE to any we ever heard of. The merit of the
AK itself has, of coarse, something to do with the
great demand Tor it, but we are satisfied that by
your system of advertising by "Lists' we have
accomplishment one year what would have ordin-
arily taken us five years to accomplish.
Respectfully,

THEoUGH the communication
signed " "" written by member

4 gentleman learned in tho law, and
of acute and disciplined intellect
we present the views of this paper
regarding the justice, the proprlety'
and the necessity of Convention
to review the Constitution OF the
State. The points are so ably
enforced that there is no need Tor
qualification. Indeed, the people
have decided that a Convention
shall be holden; and it only re
mains for the Legislature, by con-
current resolution of both Houses,
to fix the day for the election OF
delegates, and the day for its as
sembling.
The people of Tennessee are in
admirable temper to compose such
n body of wise and discreet men
There is no ground to apprehend
that a convention, in its revision OF
the Constitution, will propose to
align the State in factious Opposl-
ton to the Federal Constitution, as
amended in the last five years, or to
array the people who will ratify its
work, in antagonism to the legiti
maie results of the recent civil war

in that conflict. Its mission viii

authority of the people as expressed

tatiops and restrictions of the Fed

GRANTS habits are not such as to
satisfy the staid members OF his
party. The Whitewater Owls.
Register reflects the opinion and
sentiment of a large body OF Repub-
licans when it says:
"The truth would seem to be that Gen,
Grant is out Of place in the presidential
chair. He has no taste for civil bus ness
possibly he has no talent for it. He pre-
fers the vulgar snobby and immoral So
ciety of the watering places to the s'aId
and sober life Of the White House. II
need not be concealed that Gen. GRAM
delights in the society Of the raceScouIs'
and takes delight in diving nob6y
horse over Bloomingdale road. FOR IN
good name OF our country we may no
speak of these things aloud; but we cal
not escape the conviction that our PreSi
dent Is out of his element when uround
ed by his cabinet, and much prefers t

The Athens Post favors the pas
sage of a law by tho Legislature
compelling every voter to pay a
poll tax, and making the receipt OF
the tax collector for such tax be
the only certificate requisite to ex-
ercise The elective franchise. Such
a law is in force and has been found
to work well. Should such law
be passed by the Legislature, 1t
would add considerably to the
revenue of the State, as under the
law now in force, no citizen over
fifty years of age is required to pay

INTIMIDATION BY THE srOKE RS
INFNSr TENNESSEE.

There are several WEI authen :
Gated cases of intimidation Of both
white and black voters by the par
tisans of Mr.. Stokes in East Ten
nessce. In Union county, they took
possession of tho polls at Haines'
precinct, and prevented the anti
Stokes men from voting, even re-
sorting to violence. The registrar
appointed by Governor Santor, has
now become the object of the spite
and yindictivenoss of the Stokes
Radicsls. The Knoxville Press and
Herald says Capt. D. I. Smith, the
registrar, served three years in the
Federal s,my, and was afterwards
q captain in the militia. If his res
cord does not constitute loyalty
we ere at loss to define the much
abused word. The Press and Her
aid is reliably informed that num~
Der of the lawless spirits of the
Stokes faction in Union county, have
threatened TO ma'treat Capt. Smith
soon as they find him.
The Knoxville Press and Herald
says: an various portions of Clai-
borne county, the Intimidation game
was we'll played by the st okesites,
and many legal voters kept from
the polls. A we'll authenticated case
in point YVES tho forcing of an
elderly farmer in the foul III district
TO vote for Stokes. lie came up to
| the polls with an open ticket in bis
hands and ives about 10 vote toI
Senter and the suffrage ticket, when

hands, and Stokes ticket handed

ouence of a siv-shooter I D his head
| OF course the old man voted against

twelfth districts, the polls were sur
rounded by aimed Radics's, ant
| the Senter men either driven iron
the polls or not slowed to approach
them. In the fist district not
single Senter vote was cast, al
though there we're over Thirty Con
servatives in the district. Claiborn
county could have readily gwen wv
hundred majority for Senter,
there had been no intimidation.
In Blouut county the work wa
also carried on by the partisans @
F Mr.. Stokes. The publisher an
editor of the Ma,yvi'le Republican

They were warned that they wout
