NEW LEGTsLATURE.

Among the many things needful IN I'M
State is new Legislature. Every one
ia aware of the restraining circumstances
under which tie present Legislature was
elected, and how the people we're COM
PEELED to select candidates from the most
Indifferent material, who could take the
peculiar oath to prescribe those who
had taken sides with the South during
the late war. tbs, nevertheless, true that
the hest men we're chosen who could
then comply with the law, but these, after
ALL did not come from representative
class OF the State. There are few men in
our midst who can to. day take that NEST
infamous and degrading oath that are
worth the confidence Of the people We
admit there are exceptions. but take such
a, a class and our remark is true in re-
ference to them.
The acts and doiugs of the present Leg
islature, upon certain test questions is
proof that we are being misrepresented.
We knew our men when they we're sent
to Nashville, and only intended that they
should be the creatures of an hour. We
presume that there are not half dozsn,
perhaps, in the entire number OF these
LEGISLATORS whose records would bear
close scrutiny. They were notorious
sculkers, some deserters, and a great
many shirsers and dodgers during the
war. From out of the entire body an
honest Confederate could not be found.
As to the latter, they we're excluded on &C.
count of the oath above referred to.
The character of the Legislature is to be
observed in the degrading obsequiousneas
Of the House on yesterday, in thanking
General Grant for not having destroyed
our State government, and the effort to
appease the Radical party by passing the
resolution indorsing negro suffrage.
Conduct os this kind is unbecoming the
Representatives Of free and indepen-
dent people, sad such trucking should
be scouted by every intelligent and brave
man 10 the South
The purposeJ, then, of d resclat ton 10
troauced by Mr.. Carter, delegate from
Carter county, to elect General As
sembly in November, 1870, to hold its
session ia January, 1871, is 10 exact &C.
cordance with our wishes down here. sad
it ia 10 be hoped the thing will carry.
We desire body Of men fresh from the
people to represent us.
