THE nomination of Mr.. johnson for
Congress is both virtue and neccssi-
81. We have reasons both general and
special for believing that he will not
refuse TO make the canvass, and who
IL there in the first District will for q mo-
ment doubt that he will make itsuccess-
fully. That he is an open aspirant for
the nomination the Greeneville Union
perhaps does we'll to deny, but that a
nomination spontaneously rendered
him by the people of the District will
be rejected we will not for n moment
believe. So recently from an eXalta-
tation 80 great as the Presidency of the
Nation 1t would be in doubtful taste for
him to exhibit anything but II wise re-
tloence when questioned, as TO his
wishes I'm regard to n district 'nomiEa-
ton, but there Is, no one Office to which
he fhs In past days aspired and In
which; he could now render important
service that he would decline II voluta-
hly called 10 It. The democratio party
IN he first district Is manifestly far
from being compact unit. Its zeal
has been impaired and it's organization
b impotent. Mr.. Johnson can rally
sgain to the old standard that mighty
host which has never in past days dis
regarded his clarion call. We belive
him TO be the only man whose election
we can make sure and whose term will
he to us useful in tho highest degree.
Let US nominate him.

TIE mendacious assumptions of the
Morristown Gazette are worthy of Il
more Observation-Disclosures than we have
room left for in this issue. The Edi-
tor is requested to bear in mind that
our views of truth and justice are not
affected by aspirants within our own
family for the slippers of Mr.. Butler,
and that we would scorn to do the
meanest Radical that degree of in
Justice which the Gazette seems so
anxious to in1ict upon "Fowler."

At the time of his'dcath he was Presi-

His great popularity among the peo-

From every part of the country the

II that nomination comes to'him UNI

A Suggestion Cor Richlnontl.


Richmond continues to pothcr itself
much about a straight shoot to
Lynchburg, concerning which we lay
down tho following propositions:
The road cannot be built, for
they have not the money with which to
build;
They can't raise the $1,000, 900
necessary for its construction
If built the road would not be
selfsustaining. for the South Side
road is not sclf-sustaing within itself,
and the straight shoot would only di-
vide the trade of that road.
In view of these facts then would
not Richmond promote her own inter
est much more by opening up the trade
Of the west; by subscribing l,0)0,-
600 toward the construction and
completion of the Virginia x Ken
lucky Railroad and at the same time
require of the Danvillc road the right
and privilege of laying track upon
their road bed from Richuond to
huntsville? This track being a part
of and operated in connection with
the Atlantic, Mississippi q Ohio Rail-
road would give an unbroken line
from Richmond to Cumberland Gap
yes. to Louisville itself. Besides
this track can be constructed for less
than three quarters Of million dol
lars, giving. Richmond through con-
nection with lynchburg and the South
west and save from the s., 600, 600, re-
CURED to build the straight shoot,
three and quarter millions Of dollars
to be used for other purposes. The
straight shoot is a failure and must of
necessity, but this enterprise en-
rely within the grasp Of Richmond
city.

the within named, II. II. Butler, who
executed bond for his appearance be-
fore the Honorable Connolly +. Trigg
at Bristol, Tenn, on the 18th August,
1870. J. :. RIGGS,
Dept. u. s. Marshall.
There was no Court at Bristol,
Judge Trigg sat merely as an exam
ing magistrate. No unwarranted juris-
diction has been assumed, except by
the author OF the above telegram,
nor has friendship for Butler had
aught to do with the course of good
sense and justice in this matter. Bail
was given in -, 800, not 1000.
Mrs. Farmer has refused to appear
and testify and she enforced that re-
fusal by the refined and elegant init
nation that " if Mr.. Schwartz wan
ted her could want on, that she would
not come damned step"
Upon this entirely exploded and
very singular case the News has only
to say that it is a matter wholly for
eign to the Conservative party. 1t
has grown from a scuflle over the
spoils of Office and has its origin and
animus wholly among the Radicals of
the sfirst District. Yet, as it has
tended to strengthen and render
more TO midable Mr.. Butler as can
didatc for Congress, it behovcs us to
look to the danger ahead.
1t is sufficient to say of Mr.. Butler
that he stands convicted of extreme
Radicalism and upon this issue his
claims to reelection can be success
fully contested, but is very poor poll
cy to join in carpctbag crusade
against him upon a charge which is
as utterly groundless as he is amply
armed with the means of its easy
and complete overthrow.

The President has nominated General
John Eaton, Jr., late Superintendent Of
Public Instruction in Tennessee, to the Of
hcs Of Commissioner Of the Bureau Of Edu-
cAdoH in the Interior Department at
Washington. General Eaton was teacher
until the war broke out Ehen he enlisted
in an Ohio regiment, aud, while serving in
Tennessee, WIS relected by General Grant
to be General Superintendent OF Contra
bands" At The close OF tbs war he hzsisted
in Organizing the Freedman's Bureau Sab
sequently he became editor Of tho Memphis
Pod, and in 1867 was elected supsrintead-
cnt Of Instruction IN Tennessee, Which
Office be held until tho schools weze aban-
doued by the Legislature. His Official report
ia most valuable and ursditab1e document,
We repeat that the Bareau Of Education ut
Washington ought to be abolished. It Is
useless; it is the wasteful expenditure Of
go many thouRands of dollars which might
be saved. It is nothing moro than a pre-
text to penHon The Commissioner and his
clerks upon the public. Il the Office is TO
be continued, perhaps no better man can
be had for the place than General Eaton;
but We hope Congress will provide for the
discontinuance Of tho Office at tho cad Of
this fiscal year.
