That gallant Old Line Wing, DR.. J. S.
Davis, of Iuks, Miss, sternly and haught-
ily refuses to bow the knee to the Repub-
Iican Baal in his State, and he re-echoes
the manly words of the immortal Clay,
81 had rather be right than President.
DR.. Davis deserves the thanks of the Old
Line Wings everywhere, on account of
his devotion, and his utter adherence of
those weakened followers, who have
succumbed to Alcoru for their ''bread and
butter"
We are glad to notice that Hon. John
w. G. Watson, Judge Sharkey, Potter,
Giles M. Hillyer, and many other distin-
guished Wings, who have been the ac-
knowledged leaders of the party for
years, are too inCorruptible to be seduced

The Buffalo On. " Commercial id
UertiSer (RadicaD has the following par
sgrsph:
SIT is not surprising that some of the
South Carolina Republicans feel called
upon to telegraph a protest against the
prominent part played by Whittemore in
their Convention. 1t appears that the
whole affair was previously arranged by
Scott, Whittemore, and few of that ilk,
who had private plans of their own to
work out. Senator Sawyer and other re-
spectacle Republicans in that State took
no part in the Convention, nor were they
allowed to do so. 1t is very evident that
the Reform party in South Carolina has
got good field to work in"
When the Northern Radicals send men
down South to monopolize the offices, they
should at least send respectable men. Ii
is the legitimate result of Radical rule and
Radical reconstruction that the South is
cursed by such unprincipled fellows as
Scott and Whittemore. There is, indeed,
work for the reform party in South Caro-
lima, but Scott and Whittemore have the
negroes in South Carolina so completely
under their control through the operations
of the 'Union League, " it will be difficult
to defeat them.

RADICALS KEEPING AWAY Iu-
MIGRANTS

The Radicals have been doing their ut
most to keep immigrants away from this
State, by reporting that all sorts of out
RACES are being committed upon 'Union
men," These stories, which have no
foundation, are doing the State an i'm
mense amount of injury. The McMinn-
vile Enterprise has received letter
from gentleman in Philadelphia, making
this inquiry: F..
''Do you think money could be in
vested to advantage in lands il your part
of the State, and also would settlers
going from the North be secure in person
and property in settling there ?"
The Enterprise says it has received
hundreds of letters of similar import
during the past month, and it answers as
follows 'First, there is no section of
country in America where money can be
invested to so good an advantage, in real
estate, as in Middle Tennessee. Land is

. SrarI CoNvENTION.

We publish this morning the call OF the
Executiye Committee for State Conven-
ton to be held in this city on Tuesday,
the 18th of September next. The wisdom
of this call cannot be successfully gain
said. Reason and experience both estab-
lish the necessity for party organization
to secure party success. In governments
having republican form, the principles
upon which they are administered are ad-
vocated and maintained by political par
ties. These are necessary incident of
every government tolerating freedom of
discussion aud freedom of political action.
Notwithstanding the evils which are at
tendant upon political organizations, and
indeed all human organizations, they, by
means of the discussions which they
provoke and the watchfulness
which they excite in the public mind,
serve as guardians and preserVers of pub
lie liberty. Never, in the history of any
country, has there been greater need
than there is now in our own, of party
of well defined political principles. The
Radicals, who have for few years past,
in the language of the Executive Commit
tee, s'ruled and almost ruined us, have
been, most emphatically, kept together by
''the cohesive power of public plumber. "
Upon the tariff, taxation, finances, and,
indeed, upon all the great questions of
administrative policy, they have no bond
of agreement. 1t has been the policy OF
the National Democracy in all the North
ern States to lay down the platform OF
principles upon which they base their
organization and expect to resist
the encroachments of Radicalism.
With principles well defined,
they place their candidates before the
people, soliciting their suffrages in main
tenance of the principles thus proclaimed
and advocated. Such we take to be the
objects and will be the policy of the pro-
posed convention. ID 0-~
Let our principles be clearly and dis,
tinctly announced, and upon their merits
let US hope to obtain the approval of an
Overwhelming majority of the people Of
Tennessee. With clear and distinct
declaration of principles we shall have
party alignment not only in the Guberns.
torial canvass, but in every Congressional
district and in every county in the State.
We shall hear the same doctrines advocat.
ed from Carter to Shelby.
Pursuing the long established policy OF
the UNION AND AMERICAN, we have moi
advocated the claims of any particular
individual for the gubernatorial nomina'
ton. We have been for measures, moi
men. Our earnest effort will be to en-.
force upon the convention the necessity
of laying down platform of principles,
sound in every timber, and then place
upon it as candidate for Governor that
man whose life, character and ability shall
be the surest guarantee of its correct ex'
position and triumphant advocacy.

TIE Philadelphia Press, one of For
ney's ''two papers, both daily" says:
''The Northern Democracy carry their
elections by ballot-box stufing and fraud
their Southern allies by numbering their
political opponents and driving them from
the polls" We have just passed through
an election in this State which fatty con-
tradicts this statement of the Press.
The election in North Carolina, where the
people of some of the counties have
been harrassed to the point of rebellion
by a law-breaking Governor, is equally
emphatic in its contradiction.

has been brighter since 1776. Second,
settlers coming here from the North are
just as secure in person and property as
in Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohio, or any
other State in the Union. We have tray
eled the country over from New York to
California, and we have never found
more generous, hospitable, warm-hearted,
noble people than among the native citi-
zens of Middle Tennessee.
The Enterprise is Republican paper,
but it has the candor to answer according
to the facts. If the Radical portion of
its party were equally honest the reputa-
ton of Tennessee would not have been
made to suffer as it has.

U.,,ocratfc and Conservative
Vo,ers of the state of Tennessee.
On the second Tuesday in November
next the important elections for Members
of Congress, Governor of the State, and
Members of the Legislature will be held.
1t is deemed of the highest Importance, in
order TO secure the complete overthrow of
the political party which has for several
years ruled and almost ruined US, that
there should be unity of action among the
Democratic and Conservative party of the
State in those elections.
The Executive Committee appointed by
the State Convention held in this city on
the 9th day of June, 1868, have, therefore
for the purpose of preserving harmony
in our ranks and promoting unity of &C
ton in those elections resolved to call a
convention of the Democratic and Conserv-
alive party of the State to assemble at the
Capitol in this city on Tuesday the 18th of
September next at IL A. NJ. for the pur-
pose of nominating candidate for Gov
ernor, and taking such other steps as may
be necessary to secure the thorough or
ganization of the party. The several
counties in the State are, therefore
requested on or before the 1st Monday in
September to appoint delegates to that
convention. GEO. j. STgBBLEFED,
