EXPOSING TIE scAmps.

The New York Tribune is justly indig-
nant at an infamous fraud and forgery
that has been palmed off upon that jour
nal either by Gov, Holden, of North
Carolina, or some one through him. The
Tribune of the 28d inst. says:
GIVE have word for Gov. Holden and
Senator Abbott Just before the North
Carolina election we printed letter from
Judge Tourgee concerning the Ku-Klux
outrages il that State. Certain very start
ling statements were made in it which, but
for the respectable signature, would have
been universally secuted. Judge Tourgee
promptly wrote us, complaining that the
figures he had given, in enumerating cases
of outrage, had been increased tenfold by
the addition of cipher to each, convert
ing ten into hundred, etc. Now, we
printed the letter precisely as Gov. Hol-
den in person delivered it to our cores
pondent and as the correspondent IN
derstood that Gov. Holden had received
it fom Senator Abbott, to whom
it was addressed. We submit to these
gentlemen that. they have allowed too
long time to elapse without explaining
to US how the disgraceful garbling &C.
CURED. We should have expected them
to be as indignant as we were ourselves at
the fraud practiced upon us, and to be
prompt in exposing the forger who abused
their trust Gin copying the letter. by put
ting into Judge Tourgee's mouth mon
strOus assertions which he never dreamed
of utterng. Gov. Holdenl who garbled
the letter which you gave our correspond

The New York Times RadicaD re-
commends the Washington Chronicle,
(Which extols Gov. Holden's course in
North Carolina, and becomes almost crazy
in its reproduction of Ku-Klux outrages,"
to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest
this statement of the Tribune in regard
both to Holden and the Ku-Klux. The
letter of Judge Tourgee, which the Tri
b1Iae published just before the election IN
North Carolina, sat moment when it
seemed desirable to convince the North that
Holden's man, Kirk, and his troops really
had some other purpose than the control
of the ballot boxes by display of bayo
nets, was so altered BY Gov. Holden, or
sumo other person with the knowledge of
Holden, as to present an array of murders
and the most startling outrages. And this

man in, the nation may not consistently
subscribe to. The Democrats advocate
not one measure that the old Wings ever
opposed, at any timein the history of their
organization, and certainly, sensible men
and patriots will not allow themselves to
be thrown into the opposition by a mere
name. Democrats are as much to-day
the champions of old Wing and State
Rights principles as the Wings ever were,
and hence no partition wall should exist
between them. The issues that formerly
divided the two parties have long ceased
to exist, and while the Democratic party
hss preserved its name and organization
through all vicissitudes, it is to-day, says
the Republican, the representative of no
principle or policy on which the two par
ties would not have stood together twenty
years ago. The Democratic party is now
fighting the friends of consolidation and
the enemies of free government-the only
party that is fighting them-and all patri-
OTIS, North and South, should rally to the
standard of that party and save the
country, if possible.
On the score of policy the Republican
has word to say. Some are of opinion
that the Democratic party will not be
strong enough to avail against the infer
nails that have now possession of the
Government. If the Democrats are not,
it is certain that the new party yet to be
formed cannot be. The party that has
emblazoned on its banners the rights OF
the States, popular supremacy, equal
privileges to all and no prescription, and
can carry New York by ninety thousand
majority is both good enough and strong
enough for any Southern man to cite to.
The Republican gives out no uncertain
sound. 1t has the ring of the true
metal,

THE NAME ssDEMOCRAT.

The Savannah Republican the staunch
old Wing organ in Georgia, and edited by
that gallant old Wing champion, Col. ].
r. Sneed, has some very sensible remarks
in a late issue about the hesitancy of any
one adopting the name democrat " to
express opposition to the Radical party.
The Republican says very pointedly that
in 1872, when the great national struggle
shall come of, all local parties must, for
the time being, at least become merged in
one or the other of the great national or.
CARNATIONS, according as they may as.
simulate to sentiment and policy. 1t saws
that while the national Democratic party
may not 60 as far as some people in the
South would desire, it is very certain that
that party holds no principles and sets
forth no policy that every conservative

A LETTER from New York states thai
there are miles of house for sale and t.

of things is not peculiar to New York.

VENTION.

Voters OF the State OF Tennessee
On the second Tuesday In November
next. the important elections for Members
of Congress, Governor of the State, and
Members of the Legislature will be held.
It is deemed of the highest Importance, In
order to secure the complete overthrow of
the political party which has for several
years ruled and almost ruined us, that
there should be unity of action among the
Democratic and Conservative party of the
State in those elections.
The Executive Committee appointed by
the State Convention held in this city on
the 9th day of June, 1865, have, therefore
for the purpose of preserving harmony
In our ranks and promoting unity OF &C
ton in those elections resolved to call q
conventional the Democratic and Conserv-
alive party of the State to assemble at the
Capitol in this city on Tuesday the 18th Of
September next at II A. NJ. for the pur'
pose of nominating candidate for Gov
ernor, and taking such other steps as may
be necessary to secure the thorough or
ganization of the party. The seVera
counties in the State are, therefore
requested on or before the LIST Monday II
September to appoint delegates to ths
