In answer to cur inquiry. we were in

he was in hopes the climate there would
agree with him. 0ain ! .alid f4d
Judge Van WICK is not going directly

THE CONVENTION.

The first Thursday in August is now
close at hand, when the election of SUI
premc Judges in this State must take
place. 1t is then made incumbent upon
the good people of the State to adopt
speedy measures, such as will secure for
themselves competent set OF Judges,
who will he called on to preside over
this court How this can be done is
little difficult, and may, in our Judgment,
be accomplished in one way only, and
that by holding State or District Con
vention. which shall nominate men in
whose favor the entire strength of our
friends may be concentrated. If some
means of this sort is not resolved upon
and strictly adhered to, then Radical
or two may be found to have received a
plurality of votes after the smoke of the
contest has cleared away. In view Of
this disagreeable picture presented, we
think the Executive Committee of Shelby
county did right in calling mass meet
ing of the people on the 10th of this
month to send delegates to Nashville
to the proposed convention of the 18th
proximo. If there is not a general re-
soonse from the other divisions of the
State in sending delegates to this con
vention, then it would not be improper
for the western divisions to have sepa-
rate meeting of the delegates who shall
be present on the occasion, and to make
nominations for the two Judgeships to
which we are entitled This course
only would be left us to get off
of the track all of the deadwood
wbiei, might wreck our frail bark. We
are oppcsed to a single Radical being
elected to sit upon the Supreme bench
of this State again, and will adopt any
feasible plan by which it may be pre-
vented. Most all the candidates from
West Tennessee are willing TO submit to
the action of convention, and indeed
we have heard of none who would oppose
it. We speak knowingly of General
J. T. l.. Sneed and General Gideon
]. Pillow, who have communicated
with MS on the subject, which
two gentlemen will command the respect
and confidence of large number Of our
people. We hope there may be a general
turning out of our friends all over the
State, who will act as the representatives
of the Democratic masses on the day OF
the meeting of the Convention in Nash
Vile The occasion is one fraught with
too much Importance to be lightly Pc
garded, and should awaken the earnest
attention Of all good citizens.

A short time since the New York
Times expressed itself in the following
plain, unmistakable language relative to
the campaign of 1870"
On Monday next Oregon will open the
campaign of 1870 by the election OF
State ticket and member of Congress;
the Delaware and Kentucky elections
will follow in August; and those OF
Maine, Vermont and California in Sept
ember, and the rest of the State elections
will take place in October and November.
II may safely be asserted that upon the
result of those elections will depend the
success of the Republican policy, and
that the future destiny of the party, not
only in 1872, but for many years to
come, viii be largely affected.
1t should remembered that Connee-
ticut and New York had already spoken,
but like Rip Van Wrinkle, who, when
asked to drink after having sworn off,
replied to his friend, swell, as dis is de
first time seed you, we wont count dis,
the Times don't count Connecticut and
New York, as they were the first OF the
great guns so distressing to the ears
of Radicalism. But Oregon has spoken
the same language, and Delaware and
Kentucky will repeat similar sounds.
California will follow suit, but of Maine
and Vermont we are not so certain
especially the latter The revolution
has certainly begun; where it is to end
whether on this side of restoration OF
the Government or in full realization
of every hope-m must now be a mere
matter of speculation. The friends of
freedom and enemies of misrule every
where have cause for rejoicing. Roll on
the ball Shelby county gave It shove
in May, and the State of Tennessee will
hurl it along in August and November.

refer TO his admired readings of his own

of his books, and dwell, in the language
of rhapsody, on his striking and I'M

not, like Mark Tapley, be Jolly at

Col. Peter Turney, of Winchester. In
the times that tried mems soles he
commanded the First Tennessee Regi-
ment on the Virginia battlefields, and
was every inch soldier, as he will make
a sound, practical, efficient Judge of the
Supreme Court, for which position, we
understand with pleasure, he will be pre-
sented by the people of Middle Tennes-
see, where his popularity is boundless.
We had stepped out of Gus sanctum when
Col. Turney called, but hope TO have
many opportunities Of meeting him du-
ring bis sojoprp in the city, and bespeak
for him the attention and hospitalities to
which he is entitled from his eminent
social position, his high legal attain
ments, and the services which were hal
lowed in the cause by his devotedness
and valor.
