A Summons for Governor Senter al
Washington.

Especial Dispatch to the Republican Banner.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 70.
Secretary A J. Fletcher, of Ten
nessee. was again before the Recon-
struction Committee this morning and
completed his testimony. He was
compelled to admit that there had
been fewer outrages and demonstra-
tions of violence in Tennessee within
the last three months than at any
other period of the same length since
the wear 1857. Thus far Mr.. Fetch
er's mission to Washington has been a
complete failure. When he came
here and consulted with those who
alone could reap the least benefit from
the proposed reconstruction of the
State, there is no doubt but his heart
smote him, and it was quite apparent
that he heartily wished himself home
again. His speech at the so-called re-
construction meeting here was an ex-
ceedingly lame and impotent affair,
and showed weakness most painfully.
Fletcher concluded his testimony
before the committee this morning.
Your fellow citizen, Gen. Gates p.
Thurston, was next called to the stand,
and made q statement which satisfied
the committee of the falsity of the oft
repeated and highly-colored stories
of the terrible outrages which are said
be hourly transporting i'll Tennessee.
Gen. Thurston's statement before the
committee was a plain, unyarnished
tale, and it has undoubtedly had a
good effect.
The crisis, at least, has passed, so
far as Tennessee is concerned, unless
some enormity which no one can fore
see should transpire which could be
used to intensity feeling and counter
act conservative influences. Perhaps,
even an expression of exultatiou on
the part of Tennesseeans might be
employed to the injury of their State
here. The conversation of many of
the Reconstruction Committee, for
the past few days, has indicated at
least an indisposition to interfere with
the State Government Of Tennessee,
except the necessity be imperative
and the safety of her people demand
it, and of this they say they must be
assured by proof that is conclusive.
There is no doubt but that the dele
cations from Nashville contributed |
not a little to produce this change for
the better. The affidavits of your
Federal soldiers also did good.
1t is reported here that the Recon-
Committee have telegraph
ed an invitation to Governor Senter
10 appear before them TO give his
views with regard to the necessity of
theUnited States forces to
maintain the peace in Tennessee. If
his be so. it shows weakness on the
BART of the destrectives.
Senator Henry Cooper, in his inter-
yiew with the President, stated to
i'm that the stories of outrases in
Tennessee were exaggerated, and in
many cases without the slightest
in truth. Our friends
,ere believe that for the present the
LANCER is passed. God grant that 1t
'eturn not again, though l am still
that it may.

REMEDY OF WONDERFUL EFFICACY
In diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder. In
these affections il is as near q specific as any
remedy can be. Il does its work kindly, ST.
lently and surely. The relief which it affords
IS both certain and perceptible.
DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND
vt BLADDER.
Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions Of the Kidneys cannot estimate the
importance of their healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action Of the kidneys is
as Important, nay, even more 50, than reguiari-
ty of the bowels. The kidneys remove from
blood those effete matter which, if permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. A total
Suspension of the urinary discharges will occa-
sion death from thirty six to forty-eight honrs
When the urine is voided in small quantities
at the time, when there is disposition to uri-
nate more frequently than natural, or when the
urine is high colored or scalding, with weak
ness in the small of the back, IT should not be
trided with or delayed, but KOSK0O should be
token at once to remedy the difficulty, before a
lesion of the organs takes place. Most of the
diseases of the bladder originate from those of
the kidneys, the urine being impe-fectly secre-
ted in the kidneys, prove irritating to the blad-
der and urinary passages. When we recollect
that medicine never reaches the kidneys except
through the general circulation OF the blood,
We see how necessary it is to keep the Foun-
tain of Life Pure.

A dull, heavy feeling in the head, sometimes
mole or less severe pain or headache; periodi-
