TIr greatest harmony prevailed in
the Democratic State nominating
Convention which met at Nashville
on last Tuesday. No body of men
ever assembled together i'm nomina-
ting convention and performed their
work with more harmony and good
will. AS one of the distinguished
speakers characterised If, it was "a
love feast" Perfect harmony pre-
vailed, although the delegates in for
mer days belonged TO the Whig and
Democratic parties. 1t was a love
feast, and all past differences were
forgotten and, like all occasions
when people meet who have been OPP
posed TO each other, the utmost cour-
tesy was extended by the one TO the
other. ~ ...,...
The strongest opponents of Radi-
calism, and the firmest friends of the
Democracy, were the old line Wings.
The gallant and magnanimous
QuARLEs, the superb BATE outsti'ip.
ped all others in complimenting Gen.
JoHS c. BRowN, an old line Wing.
No more will we hear of a third
party. No more, we trust, will we
hear and see abuse of Democracy il
one of the leading papers of the State
The resolutions are just exactly what
We and a great majority of the people
of Tennessee would have them; the.
reflect the very heartfelt non-politi'
sentiment Of the people. Time alon'
can tell whether these resolutions ar
polite, and calculated TO subscrv'
our best political interests. They ar
love feast sentiments. mod
