CHARACTERISTIC.

We were greatly astonished to
find in the McMinnville Ne,o Era,
of the 14th inst, under the head
of canvass for Cbancellorship,"
that the friends of Col. Marks
were claiming for him ''6eyond
doubt" all the counties of the
district by handsome majorities
except, and even in this county, a
liberal divide. We want no bet
ter evidence of doubt and appre-
hension than such reckless and
exaggerated assumptions. If the
election of Col. Marks depends
alone upon puts and Uoacimg, we
can conceive of no article more fit
and appropriate for such a pro-
gramme than the one referred to.
Reason and argument are always
adopted, rather than bold and
high soundings assertions, If avail
able. Col. Marks may be cleo
ted, it is true, yet it is a matter of
doubt-of serious doubt, because
in his election he must defeat a
man whose claims, under all the
circumstances, are certainly su
perior to his, and whose qualifica-
tons are inferior to none in the
State. Mr.. Bright is now en-
phatlcally the father of the Bar in
this district-or, at least, bis ex-
perience and age in the profession
is greater than any one known to
us. He has spent long life of
arduous labor and toll in pre-
pairing himself to aaorn the bench,
whilst Col. Marks has but stepped
upon the Threshold of a fatter.
ing practice. This is no ordinary
canvass to the people of this dis
trict. Upon the shoulders of the
Judiciary rests the entire struc-
ture of RIGHTs-both in person
and property. The loss of a leg
in the Confederate army, although
fortunate circumstance to the
loser tor some purposes, can have
no rational weight in the qualif-
cation or choice of a Chancellor.
If SO, then why. not give us a
man as near legless as possible?
We are unwilling to believe that
Col. Marks consents to the use of
this point, by his friend, with a
view to his favor and the detri-
ment of Mr.. Bright. The spirit
of a Confederate soldier is too
proud thus to parade his scars of
honor in official traffic. That Col.
Marks suffered is true, and we re-
we're him for it. But that Mr..
Blight SUITE red is certainly not
less true. Although Mr.. Bright
was exempt and exonerated by
age from military service, yet he
bore the dangers and privations
of the field and camp with that
spirit and bearing of the soldier
that no impartial man can ques-
ton. In feet he furnished two or
three sons to the Confederate ar
my not far the juniors of Col.
Marks.
Does our sister Franklin coun-
ty wish all the official positions ?
Mr.. Bright declined the honors of
the canvass tor Supreme Judge
ship to make room for Col. Tur-
aey-0ne of Franklin's favored
sons. And it seems strange graft
tude that can prompt another to
contest with him the position of
Chancellor. Lincoln, we are
persuaded will not forget, that in
Dir. Bright she will have the first
Judge in her history. And whilst
the advantages connected with
having Judge at home are of no
second order, yet we have waited
patiently our time and seen al
most every other county in the
district honored time and time

Tho Military Baublo.

It may be said of Southern radicalism,
that it is certainly fertile in its political
expedients. No sooner does it exhaust
one popular instrumentality wherewith
tooonciliate the colored vote, than it finds
another. And thus it will go on, we pre-
sumo, until it has picked the African
bone clean. Then it will throw the sub
jeot aside, and hope to fall back upon its
ill.gotten gains. In the meantime, the
credulous negro will have alienatcd him
self from the people with whom his lot
has been cast, and he will be left, when
no longer profitable to radicalism, to
fight his own way in the battle Of life.
This is no fancy sketch. It is suggested
in no spirit of prejudice or ill will
towards the Southern negro. The bauble
of the hour, in South Carolina, is mill
tary Office, and we may expect to find
these executive gifts lavished with no
unsparing hand for party ends. And
these military baubles will be made to
subserve a purpose. They will be en-
spIoyed like toys, whilst more substantial
things will be realized by the moro know
ing ones. Military appointments are to
be the blandishments of the hour. Gar
pet-baggery" is about to enter a new
field AS ''the mule and forty acres" re-
cedes, the old militia humbug, with all
its fuss and feathers, is to be revived, to
amuse 'the newly enfranchised," and
the commander-in-chief is doubtless
ready to give oil the military Offices to
the negro, and to take for self and com
pany all the offices that pay. But The mi
laia, like Me measles, must go through
the community. We hope, however,
that, pro bono pu5lico. the Executive will
see to it that it is made to assume rs mild
form as possible.
