Gen. F. 0. Anderson the committee.
Gen. Hornberger, Col. Bailey and
Mr.. Kennedy made speeches they
were agreed In sentiment, that there
are but two organized parties in the
United States and that the only policy
for the people of Tennessee, is to or
ganize thoroughly and give an united
support to the Democratic party
They regarded all attempts to organ
lie third party as suicidal and only
calculated to give strength to our en-
emies. There was no use in quib-
ling about names Democrat" would
would do. It was gaining strength
and the only hope Of overthrowfng
Radicalism, was this party. They
favored conventions, rs means Of
preserving harmony and unity in the
Democratic ranks.

TO THE VOTERS OF THE eth CON
GRESSIONAL DISTRICT,

/ have, for some time, been an
nounced as candidate for Congress
from this District. Justice to you re.
quires that / should withdraw from
the canvas. j will briefly state the
reasons. In 1861, after the secession
of the State, was n candidate for the
State Senate. 1t Is notnecessary now
to state the reasons for my being a
candidate. ! was not elected--did not
expect or desire to be. This does not
literally or truly bring me under dis
abilities, but technically may. To
remove all difficulties on that score,
last spring, by petition, stated the
facts to Congress, and asked, If under
disability, to be relieved. The bill i'm
which my name, with several thous-
and other citizens of the State was
included, did not pass. This bill leaves
me In doubtful position. Ihave no
doubt of the passage of the bill in
December next, but would not have
you take any risks direct or contin-
gent. l should have notified you of
the facts long ago, but was advised
by friends to defer 1t until a meeting
of District Convention could be
had, and then submit them to its con.
sideration. This had resolved to do,
and would do, but there is being a
good deal Of feeling engendered be-
tween the friends of Gen. Whitthorne
and myself. / have labored too long
and too earnestly, and have made too
many sacrifices for the re-establish-
ment of just and correct principles of
government, to allow any desire on
my part for mere personal preferment
for moment to distract and divide
the councils of those who should work
together in harmony. / hope those
friends who have personally, or by
convention, solicited me to become
candidate, will allow me to pursue
this course. l cannot have a personal
scramble, fol- Office, with those for
whom l have so long labored. To
my many personal friends, who have
so warmly supported me, ard to the
masses of the great Democratic and
Conservative party, who have, with
singular unanimity, rendered me
their support, l tender my sincere
thanks.
Respectfully, &C.,
ID. b. THOMAS.

w. A. Quarles.

II seems to Us that the gentleman's
name placed at the head of this brief
article is the proper one to go before
the people of Tennessee as their first
and best choice for Governor, and con-
sequently the Boliver BUiiotia will
advocate his claims aud the necessity
of selecting so able and consistent II
standard bearer. lie is an unllinch-
ing member of the great Democratic
party; his ability cannot be doubted,
and there are no spots on his political
record. General Quarles has been
tried and never yet was found want
ing IN anything that goes to make up
the polished gentleman. There Is no
milk and cider about him; he has not
been nor never will be con the fence"
but convinced, honest aud upright;
hence he is our choice, and we hope
Ia see him nominated for Governor
ON the first ballot. We are opposed
to throwing OF old friends just for the
sake of compromising with new
ones. Like Patrick O'Toole, tive had
rather stay at home and die with the
devil we know, than 90 abroad and
die with the devil we don't SHOW

of its publication we cannot forbear
to speak of its manly, patriotic tone,

happily, to impair the brilliancy of

1t will farther be seen that per-

whereby each Civil District can con-
troll its own representation in any

this means, all prejudice between
