stop the Islander.

We have Just learned that report has
been circulated in Wilson, and perhaps in
Bedford county, to the effect that Capt. NJ.
w. Mcknight, who is now a candidate for
Attorney General in this, the Seventh Ju-
dicial Circuit, was coDscripted before he
would go into the Confederate army, and
that he would not fight after he got there;
and was teaching school while others were
fighting, etc. Now we, the undersigned,
do certify that said report, and all such,
are absolutely false. Capt. Mcknight en-
listed in Capt. Allison's company In May,
1861; was mustered into the service in
June, 1861, as private; served as priv~
ate twelve months, and was unanimously
elected CAPTAIN, which position he held
until the close of the war, commanding as
senior CAPTAIN the I'd Tennessee Cavalry a
good portion of the time; was with Gen.
Forrest in all his battles in Mississippi,
Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama, except
when wounded; was as good and brave a
soldier and officer as belonged to Gen.
Forests command; was twice badly
wounded, and we all thought MORALLY.
We served under Capt. Mcknight and
know the above facts to be true, as every
man in his company or in the I'd Tennessee
Cavalry will testify, and they are referred
to. We have not seen or heard from Capt
Mcknight since we heard of the SANDER
circulated against him, and we make this
statement without his knowledge, and hope
it will put stop to the tongue of the foul
slanderer. We cannot see how such IN
founded reports could be circulated.

James A. Steele, being candidate for
Justice of the Peace in the city district,
desires to say that he cannot in the briet
time before the election call in person upon
his fellow citizens. He therefore takes
this means of pledging himself that if
elected he will faithfully and fairly perform
his official duties, and refers to his course
in other positions of public trust as the
best evidence of his intention to do as near
right as possible by all classes-working-
men, merchants, and all others. au2 st
