"NTot Above Criticism"

One by one the more candid Of the Rad
ical press Of the country confess that the
administration of President Grant, which
has been so fruitful of corruption in its
first year, occasioned by the interest which
prominent officials have in the various
rings formed to rob the nation, is failure.
The last instance we have seen is that of
the Cincinnati Times, which says:
"But President Grant is not above crit
icism. We have often noticed the mis-
take he made at the outset in accepting
largesses from the rich. We now notice
that he has made himself lobby member
of Congress in behalf of favorite measures.
For example, in the matter of the San Do
mingo treaty, it is reported that his inter-
est in its ratification has tempted him to
invite many of the Senators to the White
House, who were calling upon him on Mon
day evening, Tuesday morning, and also
in the evening, and that he had thus won
over several votes. This is not to act like
a President. He is not a member Of the
Senate, and to make himselfa lobby mem
Der is scandalous. We implore President
Grant to close up rather than open doors
to corruption. Shall it be understood
that jobbers must go to the With House
for success p

Election News,

From our exchanges we gather the fol-
lowing election news:
Returns from many of the counties Of
Middle and West Tennessee indicate a
probable majority for the New Constitu-
ton of at least 10000, and it will proba-
bly, be greater. Conservative county OIL
GERS in almost every instance are elected.
Hawkins county gives a majority of a.
bout 200 for the new Constitution. The
entire Conservative ticket, with the oxcop-
ton of County Court Clerk, is elected by
about the same majority.
Jefferson county elected the entire Rad
ical ticket, and gave 4 majority against the
the new Constitution of 247.
Roane county has probably gone Repub-
lican and against the new Constitution by
a small majority.
Anderson county elected a Conservative
Sheriff, but gave 200 majority for the old
Constitution.
BlOunt county went Republican and
against the new Constitution by about 100
majority.
Sewer county went Radical by a very
large majority, and for the old Ccnstitu-
ton. Only 100 votes were cast for the
new Constitution.
Lincoln county gives 5000 majority for
the new Constitution.
Giles county gives about the same ma
jority.
Henry county gives 2,7OO majority for
the new Constitution.
Davidson County gives 5000 majority
for the new Constitution, but elected Rad
ical county officers on account of the num-
Der of Conservative candidates.

GENTs.-The election in Tennessee, is
over, aud the result is, we have been de-
feRtod by allowing the tax payers to vote.
Now gentlemen If ever poor defeated rad
icals needed help, it is now. We were
confident Of holding on to the suit" for
several years to come, but this way that
people have of voting as they please,
won't nigh do. Just think about it and
see if there is no remedy by which about
fifteen hundred ~'loyal" men can be re-
stored to ofice-we are gone up the spout
unless Mr.. Grant, and yourselves give us
some relief-sond us down about eight
hundred thousand soldiers that our old po-
sitions may be regained-we ourselves are
not strong enough to make a corporaPs
guard-tbe kinky head has deserted us,
and upon the whole we are in a devil Of a
fix. Have mercy upon us-tell Ben But
Ter to hurry up his reconstruction business
say to Brownlow that his followers have
succeeded in reaching the head of Salt
River, without much trouble, and the
probability is, that we will remain for all
time to come, unless he joins in with you
and helps to relieve us. Should you or
uncle Bill Stokes ever want to get back
to Congress, you had better send the yam
KEGS down to stop all the tax payers from
voting, for we tell you they are pretty
strong now. The New Constitution is
adopted, and nothing short of the United
States army will check them from exor-
cising their privilege. We do the same,
but it don't amount to anything, We
loyal people of Tennessee want men stop
ed from voting who can't show that they
are one o fus, you know what | mean. We
have had things our own way till we can't
suck good without a long Government tit.
Harkin unto us-be up and doiug-if you
want to go back to Congress, unless you
make the thing all right, you had better
60 to Massachusetts, to run, as weuns are
scattered most awfully. We will live in
hopes and wait for further developments
but if you knew how bad a radical feels
under m overwhelming defeat, you would
speak law, and often in our behalf. Oh,
Horace can't you raise the stink in our
behalf! All is quiet in the front, but we

Gov. Scott, of South Carolina, appears
to be trying to fix up things so as to have
Whittemore go back to Congress, and why
not, since Cadet Butler was not expelled ?
The Washington correspondent ofthe Lou
isville Commercial writes, March % /:
"Goy. Scott, of South Carolina, has deter
mined not to order a special election in
Whittemore's district, for the reason that
the colored people are determined to run
a candidate, and Whittemore and his
friends arc equally determined that he
shall stand for reelection. The Governor
will therefore whit till the regular election,
when he thinks a compromise can be af-
fccted by which WhittemCre can come in
for his u~nexpired term, and the colored
man for next Congress-"

SIRs-m 1852 | purchased one of your 5 oc-
tave MelOleons, and after using it a short time in
the United States, took it with us on om return to
Bangkok, Siam. The instrument was used dur
ing the voyage out and kept in almost daily SER
vice in Siam about fourteen years. WeNused it
in public and social worship in both the native
and English services, singing schools and social
gatherings. 1t has been of great service in
teaching music to the natives and enabling them
to sing correctly. We have taken it .On excur-
sious and travels in the country, and it has serv-
ed to cheer our weary spirits and beguile many
n tedious hour. The instrument is still good,
and on our return again, will yet serve us or
others for many years. 1t gives me much pleas
ure to recommend your instrument at home and
abroad.
There were several Meloleons of other makers
brought into Siam while we were there, but none
equalled yours in purity and volume of tone, OF
stood the climate so well and kept in such perfect
tune. The climate Of India is very trying to Or
gNns and MelodeOns on account of the severity
Of the hot and rainy seasons. Your instruments
have stood the best of any, aud if they will stand
the climate Of India, all lovers of music should
give them the preference every where.
