THE GERMANS.

The German citizens of Knoxville
sent circular to the Nashville Demo
krat of yesterday, by which they ener-
geticany protest against the rumors about
violence and disorder in our State, invent
ed and spread by cunning politicians and
vile office-seekers. They declare that
perfect harmony exists between the diff
ferent nationalities and invite their coun-
trymen to settle amongst us with the full
confidence that life and property are as
secure in our midst as elsewhere in the
Union. The meeting, which passed these
resolutions, was composed of Radical as
well as Conservative citizens, who sol
EMMY express it as their opinion, that the
interference of Congress with our affairs
would be the very ruin of their adopted
State. A copy of the resolutions was al
80 forwarded to the New York Stats
Zeitung, and every German paper liz the
country invited TO give publication to the
same.
We learn that the Germans in Memphis
and Chattanooga have adopted similar
resolutions, and that the Germans of this
city are preparing to hold meeting for
the same purpose.
Thus the true sentiments of both om
native and foreign population relative TO
reconstruction are being evoked by the
machinators at Washington.

THE Cincinnati Gazette, as ultra as il
is in its Radicalism, is compelled to ridi-
cule the assumption of virtue by Congress.
1t says:
f'The House, finding that TOO many of
its members have sold cadet appointments
to be disciplined, is now directing its
virtuous judgments to those outside per
sons who tempted the members. Let the
members get them to q nunnery, where
no one can approach them, and where an
iron grating win prevent the passing OF
considerations. And while it accepts as
a fit colleage r. r. Butler, who sold a
cadetship for bride, it turns its avenging
virtue on Gen. Schoepf, an examiner in
the Patent Office, and demands his eX-
pulsion because he innocently transferred
the money. Is it possible that the HOuss
is unconscious that it is making itself the
laughing stock of the whole country
We hope that Secretary Cox will resist
this. impudent and unworthy demand, and
restore Gen. Schoepf to his place"

The Responsibilities of the Liver.

The liver has very important part to perform
in the animal economy. Its function is two-fold.
The fluid which it secrets tempers the blood and
regulates the bowels, and upon the quantity and
quality of the secretion depends, in a great de
gree, the adaptation of the blood to the require
ments of the system and the due removal of the
refuse matter which remains in the intestines after
the work of digestion has been accomplished.
One of the principal uses of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is to tone and control this somewhat IN
ruly organ. The ambitious properties of the pre-
paraion are scarcely secondary to its virtues as
stomachic. Its operation upon the liver is not vio-
lent like that of mercury, but gradual and gentle.
Instead of creating sudden tumult in that sem
sitive gland, it regulates its action by degrees.
Hence, it is a safe remedy for bilious disorders,
while mercury, being a tremendous excitant, is
not. The more naturally and quietly diseased or
gan can be restored to its normal condition the
better and it is the peculiar property of this harm
less vegetable Alternative to reinforce and regulate
without exciting or CONFUSING.
The success which has attended its use as rem
edy for affections of the liver is proverbial Per-
sons of a bilious habit who take it habitually as
protection against the attacks to which they are
constitutionay liable, pronounce it the best liver
tonic in existence. The symptoms of an approach
ing fit of biiousness can hardly be mistaken. A
pain in the right side or under the shoulder blades
a saffron tinge in the whites of the eyes, sick
headache a feeling of drowsiness, low spirits loss
of appetite constipation and general debility are
among the usual Indications Of morbid condition
of the liver, and soon as they appear the Bitters
should be resorted to in order to ward off more
serious consequences. Observation-Disclosures

THERHODETsLAND DEMOCRACy


We make the following extracts from
the resolutions lately adopted by the De
mocracy of Rhode Island:
ftResolved, That the present tariff is &
gross outrage upon the people of the
United States, giving no satisfactiontotht
manufacturer, and robbing the people by
compelling them to pay unnecessarily ex
brilliant prices for the necessaries OF
Ife.n
That is pretty good to come from
State that has more factories, in proper
ton TO its population, than any other II
the United States. Unfortunately, the
Democracy are largely in the minority
there. Relative TO thenaturalized citizens
they
'Resolved, That the naturalized citizens
ought, by the constitutional law of the
State, to be permitted and allowed the ex-
ercise of the right of suffrage on the same
terms as native-hon citizeAs. p"
Under the law of this Republican State,
foreign-born citizens have been required
TO own 1884 in real estate to entitle them

cluded, could vote without such a require.

republican In form At the time
of the admission of the State
under its present constitution, it is
SO now. There has been no change of the
constitution, and no action by the Legisla-
fure WHICH was not within the limits of
its authority under the constitution. The
question of the eligibility of members OF
the Legislature was one which that body
alone could determine. 1t possessed this
authority, not only under the organic law
of the State, but by virtue of unfailing
precedent, and powers inherent in it as
Legislative body. 1t follows that the IN
reference by Congress with the govern
meut of Georgia was monstrous usur-
patton of power. Now it is proposed tc
reconstruct Tennessee and put t1e people
of North Carolina under the heels Of

RADICAL FRAUDS.

The Chattanooga Times of the 9th
inst, in a notice of the election in that
place, makes the following statement:
ebay before yesterday the Commits
sioner of Registration refused to give us
the list of judges and clerks of election
for publication. His reasons for so doing,
aside from his determination not to give
any information at all to the Times, we
readily discerned on learning the polling
places in the city yesterday. At the
most important precincts negro judges
were appointed, who could neither read
nor write, and who were ready to act as
tools in the hands of the ring.
'sThe Commissioner of Registration or
dered the judges of election to receive no
votes for the new Constitution or against
it, without the voter spresented a certiti-
cate of registration. This was in palpa-
BILE violation of the law authorizing the
election for the Constitution. The Com
missioner of Registration was sustained
in this open violation of law By A. A.
Pearson, the Senator from this District.
''During the day, our Representative
Hon. E. A. James, met the Senator, and
demonstrated with him about him about
this violation of the law authorizing the
election for the Constitution. Pearson
said the law was unconstitutional. James
said that it was constitutional-tha it was
passed under the LIST section of the Bill
of Rights, and that portion of the Consti-
tuition that exempted said Bill of Rights
out of the general powers of government,
and that it should remain inviolate
James asked him if any court had de-
clared it so. He said he knew that it
was unconstitutional, and that the Com
missioner so thought, and that the Com
missioner had decided rightly. James
then asked Pearson if he (Pearson) did
not vote for said law, as he (James) had
done. Pearson answered, Yesl James
asked him how could he vote for law
that he knew to be unconstitutional, when
he had taken an oath to support the Con-
stitution. Pearson replied that he had
promised to vote for law calling a con-
vention. The conversation here ended. !"

ss0F COURSE.,,

In our issue of the 26th we stated that
we had not reported our interview with
Speakers Thomas and Perkins on their
return from Washington, by request Of
those gentlemen, and that they had stated
to rs that they had made the same request
of our city contemporary; further, that
they gave us as a reason for their request
that some of the greatest stumbling blocks
which they had encountered in their mis-
sion were editorials from Tennessee pa
pers that they found in the possession OF
Gen. Butler, Chairman of the Reconslruc-
ton Committee. They also assured US
that none of those editorials were from
the UNnoN AND AMERICAN.
Thereupon, the Banner regales us with
a column of editorial in its Characteristic
Sir Oracle style. We shall enter into no
controversy to establish claim to SUPERB
ority in the sensational. When gentle
men of the highest character for sound
judgment and discretion, fully cognizant
of the dangers which imperil the State,
fresh from the field of action, re-
quest us not to publish a report
of interviews with them, we shall
comply with the request, regardless
of criticism The people of Tennessee
for the past two weeks have stood ap-
palled at the threatening cloud which
oYerhangs them 1t has been our task to
do all that was in our power to prevent
the descent and bursting of that cloud,
and consequent ruin of the whole
State. A constantly and rapidly increas-
ing circulation assures us that our labors
in this respect have been satisfactory to
the public. The dispatch of 3. Butler,
requesting the appearance of Gov. Senter
before the Reconstruction Committee, and
Gov. Senter's reply, stating that he would
comply as soon as his health would per-
NIT, which were published in the Banner
Sunday morning, were shown to US
Saturday evening, but with the request
that there should be no publication made
thereof Hence there was no allusion to
them in cur columns. We have had
quite as much to do as our contemporary
in the sending of delegation of our best
citizens to Washington to state truthfully
the situation in Tennessee. We have
received quite as many kilograms from
the National Capitol. Some we have
published. Some we have not. We
have no doubt that every line that has
been written and every incident that has
occurred would prove highly interesting
to our readers. But we are satisfied that
they would prefer that we should subserve
their interests rather than crafty their
curiosity, especially in so momentous
q crisis as this.

TIE SPRING TRADE.

The New York BuIJetiHsays the spring
trade thus far has been anything but sat
isfactory. 1t says: Gan sections Of the
country have been amply represented by
buyers, who speak hopefully of the con-
dition of business in the interior, and are
apparently intending to buy freely; but
their purchases have been confined to
small parcels for supplying immediate
wants, and the aggregate of business has
been comparatively light. This rule ap-
plies even to Southern merchants, who
usually buy early and who this season are
prepared to take larger supply of goods
than at any period since the war. There
are the main clements for an active,
healthy trade; aud yet the commission
merchants and jobbers universally com
plain of unsatisfactory sales" The Bul-
stetSq adds: E Ea
ssCertain special causes, however, have
contributed to this condition of business.
The extreme decline in gold has necessi-
tated fall in the price of cotton and of
some other raw materials, and has in
duced an expectation of general decline
in prices; and, although very many classes
of goods have been reduced TO the extent
leritimately required by the fall lin the
premium, yet purchases have been made
Cautiously, under a supposition that gold
might decline still further. The agitation
of measures in Congress looking TO the
refunding of the debt and the quick pre-
cipitation of specie payments-backed as
these proposals have been by the urgent
pressure of the Administration-has pro-
duced vague idea that by some incom-
nrebensible magic we might be suddenly
brought to the verge of the specie basis.
This idea, wholly preposterous TO reflect
ing observers, has produced a stubborn
canton among country buyers and has
wrought incalculable mischief TO busi-
ness

TIE Paris (Tenn.) hltelligencer says
''The idea that it viii be polite to plant
corn this season, is spreading among the
cotton-growers of our region of country.
If corn is not planted, to an extent equal
tohome consumption at least, planters wiz
feel very poor next fall and winter. They
viii be selling their cotton at 12@15c per
pound, if not less, and buying corn and
pork at nearly war prices"
