The Banner says the Conser vatives of
Virginia "take decided grounds against
merging themselves Jy name or in fact
into any national party" The Ban
ner proceeds: "The course of the peo-
pie of Virginia is eminently polite and
wise. No sincere and sensible man will
question this" Hence, according to the
reasoning of our contemporary, he who
favors merging the opponents of Radical
ism into the National Democratic party,
"either in name or in fact, is not sincere
and sensible. Tennessee" says the
Banner, ''shouid follow in the same

GOV. sENrER.

We have received note, the writer
of which had an interview with Gov.
Senter yesterday, in which the Governor
said: AS now advised, he should not re
fuse to give commissions to Judges elect.
He did not think he had any control over
it, if they had the proper certificates of
election. 1t was a matter of conscience
with them, and matter which the
courts would take cognizance of, if they
were improperly indicted into Office.
As a matter of course, Gov. Senter
could not do otherwise.

Col. R. F. LooNEY, of Memphis, an
old Wing, is hard on those of his former
party friends who affect squeamishness
about the name of the party with which
they will fight hereafter. He says: "This
quarrel about names is absolutely child
ish, and does not rise to the dignity Of
respectable nonsense

The Memphis Sun says: "Gen.
Bate has declined TO become candidate
for Governor. He had a host of friends
who lament that by the proscriptive
policy of the Radicals, they are denied
the opportunity of putting him in po-
sition the duties of which he could go
satisfactorily discharge"
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-08-11

The blunders of Congress, says the
New York Times, "are scarcely dis
tinguishable from crimes" True, but
the Radicals manifest no disposition to
punish these blande;ers by leaving them
where they can do no harm hereafter.

CALL FoRrAp STATE CON

,.o D.,,,ocratIc and Conservative
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.
1t is deemed of the highest importance, in
er to secure the complete overthrow of
political party which has for several
ears ruled and almost ruined us, that
here should be unity of action among the
Democratic and Conservative party of the
State in those elections.
The Executive Committee appointed by
the State Cohyention held in this city on
the 9th day ofJepe, 1868, have therefore
for the purpose of preserving harmony
n our ranks and promoting unity of ac-
ion in those elections resolved to call a
convention of 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 1l1A- N. for the pur-
pose of nominating a candidate for Gov
ernor, and taking such other steps as may
be necessary I'd secure the thorough or
ganization of the party. The several
counties in the State are, therefore
requested ON of before the 1st Monday in
September to appoint delegates to that
convention i1 GEo. ]. STUBBLEFED,

For this robbery of the State treasury
Governor Holden is responsible.

The PROFITS.

There is very understanding among farmers
as to supply and probable demand of this seed. No
reasonable man. who knows the facts, doubts for a
moment but that they will into general use Just
rapidly the seed be had displaoing all others
from our soil If the entire product could be retained
in this country, it would require two crops
SUI ply the seed wanted But it is rapidly becoming
known in other ceuntries. While have not courted
foreign orders wishing to reserve that market for
another the few samples there year
produced well that orders daily reaching from
all pats of Europe. Even Norway is looking for
seed that bears her name several important orders
having been received from there. Nearly fifteen per
cent of the last will be exported and probably
less than 3 of the next viii find ready sales abroad
With these fact, before us, cannot expect very
great reduction in price of seed next year. We have
shown tuat at price of ordinary OATS they profit
able crop. AT 81 per bushe they will pay handsomely;
but at IS 81 it is easy matter for farmer to
off mortgages or build house from few acres.
Last season 9acre lot yield S1l. go to New York
farmer larger sum than he had made in ten years
farming. Wisconsin farmer did still better and
hundreds have made small fortunes. These facts
be fully proven any day by unduubted testimony While
these high prices last 1t speculation but as safe
and We hope farmer vii buy this seed unless
he fully believes he doing himself greater favor than
he Is Many have thanked US for urging them to buy
last year, and thousands will do So next year.

N. 2. Boyer & Co., publishers OF a country paper
somewhere in Penn issued circular similar
mr., claiming to have seeds, but when exposed
the fraud they changed their tactics, and
advertising that they import seed from Norway This
dodge Is so ridiculous in view of the fact that seed
never came from Norway and that filing orders
from that country, that intelligent farmers not
likely to be deceived by it Samples sent us, which
came from them, have been pronounced New Bruins
wick Oats by hundreds of farmers who examined them
Other parties are selling what they claim to
seed at prices varying from 80 to &c. per bushel

these parties honest but deceived t. pur
chase OF seed last year. Out of twenty samples
sent US OF Norway Oats being advertised, only
two were genuine. We cannot go through the
whole list, but the above facts sufficient We have
only to request that those who buy of such parties and
disappointed in their crops will not condemn our
seed, as some did last year
Facts and figures have already been published show

twice to three times much the acre. are heavier
