TENNESSEE RADICALS CLAMoE.

TENNESSEE RADICALS CLAmOES-
ING FOR RECONSFRUOTEON. go.
The Washington correspondent of Tile
Louisville Commercial writes, March 8:
''Quite a number of prominent Tennes-
see Radicals are here clamoring TO have
Congress interfere in their behalf, and re-
construct Tennessee. They represent that
a bad condition of things exists there, and
that the vote on the new Constitution is
likelyto be small on account of terrorism"
1t is remarkable how persistently some
of the Radicals in this State are laboring
to get the State government set aside and
a military Governor appointed, and all
this that they may get Office. Every
species of Misrepresentation has been re-
sorted to in the hope of getting Congress
to strike down State to make room for
few hungry office-seekers. The State
never was in better, more quiet condi-
ton than at present, yet we are told there
are number of prominent Tennessee
Radicals in Washington representing that
''the vote on the new constitution is
likely to be small on account of terror
ism" They do not believe their own repre-
sentation. Eyeryman in the State can vote
for or against the new constitution if he
desires to do so, and no body is more
thoroughly convinced Of this fact than
these prominent Tennessee Radicals. I"
1t is all bosh to talk about terrorism in
Tennessee to-day. The right of every
| citizen to vote, and TO vote as he pleases,
never was more secure before the war,
and the honest men in the Radical party
viii admit that this is so. The Radicals
want Office again, and hence they clamor
for reconstruction that they may profit by
it as they did when Tennessee was recon
structed in 1865. The Washington cor
respondent of the Baltimore Gazette
writes, March /:
% 1t is stated that bill will soon be
reported for the further reconstruction of
Tennessee. The provisions of the bill
are not definitely known, but it is believed
| that the State will be remanded TO terri
torial condition. This will break up the
Constitutional Convention now in session
in Nashville, but it is understood that
Governor Senter will not be disturbed in
his position. Ii is declared, further, that
all acts of the present Legislature win be
invalidated, aud this will reopen the
Senatorial question, as the election of the
Hon. Henry Cooper will then be made
null and void. -
These Radical malcontents want to up
set every thing that has been done since
they were deposed, simply because the
| taxpayers Of Tennessee were unwilling
to trust these spendthrifts. These grace
less scamps know that they have no viz
tues to recommend them to the people Of
Tennessee, and hence they appeal to
Congress TO do that which they have no
virtue to command from free people.

DEMOCRACY MAKING PROGREsS.

The recent town elections in the State
of New York show that the Democrats
are making rapid gains in the interior.
The New York Herald says:
"The Democrats have thus far gained
upon their last vote wherever heard from.
Delaware county is claimed TO be re-
deemed, the Board Of Supervisors Being
Democratic-ten TO eight-for the first
time in twenty years. Herkimcr is back
again in the Democratic fold, for the first
time since 1860, their majority in the
Board being twelve TO seven. In Mont
gomery county the Democrats have chosen
a majority of the Board of Supervisors.
In Broome county the Board will stand
thirteen Republicans to seven Democrats,
a Democratic gain of one. 1t appears,
therefore, that whatever the wrangles
among Democratic leaders at Albany may
amount to, the Democrats in the interior
are putting themselves in a condition to
make good start for the next State cam

THE decline in gold in New York yes
terday unsettled trade inmercantile circles
and had depressing effect in the produce
market Provisions of all kinds were
lower, and flour declined fifteen cents per
barrel, while wheat was dull and almost
unsaleablc, notwithstanding the cable re-
ported an advance Of one TO three pence
in Liverpool. In cotton great depression
was felt, and prices declined fully half
cent, and there was disposition to specu-
late on still lower prices in the future.
The decline in cotton Of late has entailed
heavy losses on spectators holding for q
rise in the spring. The market is in that
feyerish condition which might result in
much lower prices if cotton on the spot
was thrown on the market freely.

THE VALUE OF A GREENgACK
R0FFaR

AT The close of the year 1861 inc banks
of the country generally suspended specie
payments. The New York Egeniag Post
says the occasion OF this was the weak
ness of the United States Treasury, whose
demand notes were the accepted circula-
ting medium of the country, but could
no longer be redeemed in gold. But the
premature efforts made early in 1862 to
make a speculative "gold market" failed
for two reasons the amount of the cur
rency was not yet in excess of demand,
and the confidence of the people in the
speedy overthrow of the rebellion, and
the consequent resumption of specie
payments, was mistaken. The currency
remained practically as good as
gold, until late in the summer, when
the delays of Mcclellan made it plain that
the war was to be prolonged; and until
the treasury was driven, by the failure OF
Congress TO provide sufficient tax laws, to
the issue, under the legal-tender act, OF
unprecedented amounts of paper money.
In June and July the depreciation became
considerable, and all forms of specie dis
appeared from circulation. The progress
siye depreciation of the currency is COM
monty disguised, adds the Post under the
form of premium on gold;" but, in fact,
the valuei gold has not materially changed
during the last ten years. The supply has
been quite uniform, and the demand has
been influenced only occasionally and
temporarily by speculative causes. 1t Is
the paper currency that has been bought
and sold, at prices varying according tC
the varying confidence of the public in it,
ultimate redemption, and according to The
| excess of it in use. To appreciate The
course of the national credit, therefore,
we should quote the price, not of gold,
but of greenbacks. This price has varieC
as follows. a greenback dollar was WORT
in cents Of real money:

The reported movement in Ohio among
the soldiers who entered the army before
the passage of the legal tender act, to
secure what they claim to be back pay
due them on the gold basis, according to
the decision of the Supreme Court in the
legal tender case, bids fair TO extend and
become q most formidable one. Those
who head the movement maintain that
there can be no doubt whatever that a
soldier who enlisted in the service Of the
United States prior TO that date for a term
of one, two, or three years, and was
afterward paid off in legal tender curren-
cy worth less than one hundred cents on
the dollar, has a just and valid claim
against the Government for the difference
between the value Of the paper and the
coin standard at the time IF payment,
with interest. The difference in the case
of many, if not most Of the payments
made to the soldiers who then enlisted
will amount to double or treble what they
actually received, leaving the interest out
of the question.

TETE RULING PASSION.

1t is now charged that Wbittemorc,
true to carpet-bag instincts, sold his seat
in the House of Representatives to Mr..
Benton, Of New Hampshire. ''It APP
pears, however, that the retiring member
was unfortunate also in this speculation /;
for Mr.. Farnsworth, who knew some of
the rules had negotiated with the
Doorkeeper, whose perquisite it is Qike
that of hangmen of Old to appropriate
the paraphernalia of executed members,
and whose prior claim and transfer could
not be successfully contested"

TIE TRIBUNE oNgENNESsEx.

Things have come 20 such mclan-
choly pass in Tennessee that the loyal Re
Dublicans OF that State have been fairly
driven into action. Two large meetings
of Ioyal men were held in Nashville on The
10th nit. TO consider the position Of pub
lie affairs-thc assassination Of unoleuG-
ing citizens by the Ku Klux, the opprcs-
sivc action of the Legislature and Con
yentiOn, and the abolition OF the free
common schools. I'VE are, say The
Tennessee loyalists, completely at the
mercy of Rebel hate and Rebel violence.
We have absolutely no way % defend our
ives from any drunken sCDunGrcl that
from malice or mere wantOnness may see
fit TO waylsy US - These men say they
cannot help themselves. They .'must
have help from outside The national
arm should put down the Ku-kluN, by
simple. speedy and summary methods.
The Fourteenth Amendment should be
applied TO the present Legislature and the
Conycntion-in the former il would leave
a quorum, but it would bring that quorum
to its senses.
We extract the foregoing from an cdi-
torial in the New York Tribune Of the
Cd 1t shows the ignorance or malignily
of Radicalism. The men who write Cor
the Tribune ought 10 know that the
members of the Legislature had to take a
candidates oath" passed by the Brown
low Legislature, which is far more rigor-
ous and searching than the Fourteenth
Amendment.
We regret to see so philosophic
journal as the Tribune losing its influence
with its party. We can only account for
it by its frequently admitting into its
columns such iIl-infomed articles as we
have quoted from. If Mr.. Greeley will
visit Nashville he viii be kindly received;
learn much of the tricks of his party
leaders, and go home wiser man.

SOME of the Radical newspapers are
celebrating the resignation of Mr.. Cola
day. The public would be pleased TO
know what these sheets are hurTahing
over. Is it because Mr.. Golladay has re-

crat less in Congress? Is it because they

so, the Chicago Times asks that they be

The termination of the war in the field
in 1866, put an end to the violent huctua-
tons in the value of greenbacks, which
had accompanied the varying fortunes of
the war. Since that time, the amount Of
the currency, and the political agitation
for a postponement of resumption, aided
occasionally by little speculative excite
ment, have been the influences which
have depressed the value of the currency.
But the fluctuations have been within
narrower limits, and our table may be

They should go down in this city. High
rents affect business in an unfayorable
manner. That fact is well understood.
If merchant is weighted with an enor-
nous rent, he is compelled 10 keep up the
price of his goods. That drives pur-
chasers TO other markets and reduces the
