yet no explanation was given, no effort
made by any one of the UiIe miscrednts who
planned and executed the conspiracy to-
prevent the threatened pursuit, capture
and assassination of the victim of their in
describable and insatiate malice.
Yet, after all this, with unparalleled
shamelessness and effrontery, the Rev.
Mr.. Charlton returns here to Knoxville,
where his history Is so well known, as
sumes the office of public instructor, sets
himself up as party leader, puts on airs
of superiority, uses his editorial position
to traduce better men than himself, heads
the proposed Division Fair, condescends
to amnesty" such men as Williams,
Fleming and Crippin" for the offence of
having been Union men, and with a sane
timoniOusness that BELTS n pretender, occa-
sionally takes upon himself the high and
holy responsibilities of Il minister of God
Andswhat is still worse, there are n few
craven, dependent creatures, without the
means of self-support, hungering for small
offices, who hang around and court his edi-
tOrial commentator, by recognizing and
associating with him as gentleman.
Such are the men who have been making
war on me, and the above is q fair sample
of their warfare. They scruple at moth
ing, however atrocious, to kill off those
they are unable TO use. The sooner such
men are kicked out of society, degraded in
public estimation, and scorned from the
presence of honest men, the better it will
be for society. Respectfully, &c,

EMIGRATION.

The last Republican Legislature of this
State fully realizing the importance and
necessity OF emigration to build up the
waste and uncultivated places ofTennessee,
passed an act for its encouragement, under
whicha Comm ssioner was appointed. The
law was needed, and was practical i'm its
principles Under it, much had been done
i'm the way Of publishing facts and organi-
ling for more substantial emigration.
The fruits of such efforts could not have
been realized in day. The great induce
ments offered 10y the West We're, and are
STILL difficult to overcome The stream
having flown in that direction so long is
hard to turn. Any Emigration Agent viii
finditto be SO. But whether or not the Agent
was the best that could have been found is
one question and whether or not the law
was good is another. But this law, like all
others, had to succumb to the partisanism
of the present General Assembly. Like
many other very good laws, it was repeal
ed. But finding that its repeal was not
very popular or satisfactory to the substan-
tial men of even the Democratic party,
some one of this very wise body of legisla-
tors introduced a bill few days ago, pro-
posing a new law providing for an Emf
grafton Agent at a salary of five hun
bred dollars more than the Republican
Assembly allowed and whose duties, as
defined, made the place of very little prac-
teal good, for ii only furnished II sinecure
| for some good Democrat. Our Republican
| friends in the Assembly refused to vote for
| this law for this reason, among many
/ others-that it provided for an agent AT II
higher salary than paid the last one, whose
labors, as prescribed by law, could result in
no substantial good to the State. For this
vote the Democratic press of the State, led
by the Nashville Banner, raise terrible
cry, and charge that the Republican party
is opposed TO emigration.
In view of the facts as we have here
stated them, what consistency is there in
such charges? The Democracy of Tennes-
see is now in fact opposed 70 emigration, as
it has been for fifty years past. Democracy
in hot haste, repealed good emigration
law rs passed by Republicans, and now, in
reponse to the wishes of few of its most
discreet leaders, it re-enacts IA law not rs
good as the one repealed, and because Re
publicans refuse to vote for the law, Tia,
party whose whole history and policy ha'
been identified with emigration, Is charged
with opposing emigration The Press dRC
Herald, echoing the Banners charge
writes in apparent glee. But such weak
devices can not deceive sensible men wher
their attention is once called to the facts
The truth is. that in Tennessee, as in every
other State, the Republican party is TIN
only party consistently and uniformly fl
voring practical emigration system, anC
the Democracy, in trying 70 cover over it
own footprints, cannot deceive the peopl
who read and think for themselves.

ArrEMPrED BURGLARY.-We learn
from Mr. Hodgkinson, night Waterman,
that on the morning of Sunday, the Sd
instant, about 2 o'clock, an attempt was
made TO break into the house of N. c.
Gardner, situated south of town on the
Genoa road. The noise caused by the
giving way of the door fastening aroused
the inmates of the house, and it was
discovered that the burglars had been at
work in two different places with a
chisel. The alarm drove off the rob-
bers who were seen in the distance; es

Gardner states that all the money about
the premises at the time was three dol.

ASorBER ATTEMPT AT HoUsEBRRAK-
ISo.-We are indebted to our highly ef-
tciert night Waterman, Mr.. Hodgkinson,
for the Information that on Sunday
night an attemp: was made by burglars
TO effect an entrance into John G. Fox's
book store. They began operations on
the rear of the brick wall and the
marks are there to show that they meant
to get into the building by cutting a hole
through the bricks. Albro, who was
sleeping in the store, heard the noise,
made stir and frightened them from
their work. Hodgkinson, who was
going his rounds and who had not been
apprised of what bad been done, espied
three suspicious persons on King street
and followed them. As he gained upon
them they quickened their pace, and
after going some distance he called to
them to halt and give On account of
themselves. This they would not stop
10 do, and he fired at them. They re-
turned the FIRE and then got of as fast
as their legs would carry them. Hodg-
kinson has good reasons for suspecting
certain parties and they had better stop
their mischief or he will make it very
rultry for them one of these nights. In
the meantime, fellow-citizens, load up
your shot.guns.
