ACCEPTING THE SITUATION.

The confederacy had few wiser or more
energetic counsellors than Governor Rey-
nolds, of Missouri, or better soldiers than
General Joe Shelby, of the same State.
When all was lost they sought an asylum
in Mexico, and to their patriotic advice
and judicious management is owing, in a
great measure, the strong American feel
ing which sprang up among the ex-Con-
federates in that country and caused them
to return home fully dispossessed of all
ideas of secession of opposition to the
federal government. At a meeting of ex-
C~onfederates at Huntsville, Mo-, a few
days ago. speeches were made by Cover
nor Reynolds and General Shelby, and at
their instance q resolution was passed that
it was the duty of all to turn their backs
upon the past and grasp manfully the du-
ties and responsibilities of the future.
These are words of wisdom which it will
be well for the South to act upon. Let
Southerners act sensibly and accept the
situation in the same good faith as have
the Missourians, and their section will soon
become the richest and most prosperous
portion of the Union.

Terrible Adventure with a Rattle
snake.

1t was stated in this paper last week
that a citizen of Polk County, named Paul
Parks, had been bitten by a large rattle
snake. 1t seems Mr.. Parks was hunting
CATTLE and had assembled some distance up
the mountain, when he came upon the
snake so suddenly that he did not see it
until it was in the act of striking and
there was no chance to retreat or to avoid
the blow. He was struck in the leg with
both fangs, a few inches above the ankle
Joint. He made an effort to kill mis- enemy,
but the venom circulated so rapidly that
in a few seconds he became sick and dizzy
and turned away from the place. After
proceeding a short distance partial blind
ness and extreme nausea and dizziness
ensued, the selecting as level a place as
he could, the poor fellow stretched him
self upon the ground, as he thought, to
die, helpless and alone, almost within sight
of his humble home. But revIying a
little in a few minutes, he determined to
make another effort. and being unable to
stand erect and walk, he commenced roll
ing himself down the mountain and sue
ceeded in reaching a spot near the "big
where his cries and means attrac-
ted the attention of a passing neighbor,
who went to his assistance. A vehicle was
procured and the unfortunate man was
convened to his home-but before reaching
there he had become blind and speechless
and his tongue was %protruding from his
mouth. At last accounts Parks was still
live, and some faint hopes were enter
aimed of his recovery. He told the
,eighbor who first reached him that the
make was much the largest he had ever
'een, being, as he expressed it, "as big as
ny leg."--Athens Post.

and expression, among men devotedly at
faced to good government and free insti-
buttons. As long as the Republican par
ty stands as the representative of the VIC
tory of patriotism over Secession, free
government over aristocratic exclusion,
liberty over slavery, purity and probity
over corruption and dishonesty, and the
supremacy of honor and intelligence oyer
viIlainy and ignorance, it affords ample
place for such upright and patriotic men
as the Missouri Senator. In fact thereis
no other ~congenial companionship for
them. Unwisely, without judgment. and,
in their forlorn condition. eagerly "catch-
ing at straws," whenever a Republican
politician has the frankness and honesty to
assail the errors and follies of his own par
ty such candor and integrity being ut
terly strange to them, the Democrats her
aid it as a fatal detection in our lines.-
Such was the case afew months ago, when
they showered encomiums upon General
Sherman in unstinted profusion for the
New Orleans speech they manufactured
for him. Such was the case shortly
Afterwards when Sumner and Schurz de-
nounced the San Domingo Job" and be-

Republican councils thrills the Democra-
cy with exstacy and hope.

THIRD

Issue concludes the III Volume Of
en- eRALD AMI TRIBUNE. We press
tbssttreshold of the coming year, with a
success established beyond all question,
w. the brightest foretokens of an aug
)ted prosperity. and e~xultant in CON-
triumph over the dismal prophesies,
fe1ful forebodings, and fierce maledic-
tons of e~vil-wishers and unmasked enc
mics which hailed our entrance into the
arena of newspaper enterprise. We have
lived through two years of struggle and
opposition, and yet the ominous "red flag"
= docs not cast its woeful shadow upon our
: 1outer walls, nor has the o~ft-repeated predic
ton of a change of ownership and politics
been fulfilled.
Regarding the liberal and harmonizing
creed of the Republican party, as set
forth in the Chicago platform of '6S, as
amply sufficient to meet the new condi-
ton of political affairs created by the
revolutions and results of the war, we
have steadfastly advocated that policy of
paci6cation and reunion. This course in
dignantly frowned upon by the selfish
p~artisanism and acaricious loyalty of a
few would-be leaders. we do not regret, as
the unprecedented prosperity ofthe coun'
try and a fast returning fraternity among
the people have eloquently and conclu-
sively demonstrated its propriety and
wisdom. BY its c%ounsels of moderation
and a due regard for the rights of others.
the HERALD AND TRIBUNE claims to
have exerted 10 small influence, in allay-
ing the heart-burnings and softening the
asperities engendered by the heated an
~tagonisms of the war.
No reasonable outlay Of care and means
have been withheld from any depart
ment to furnish our patrons with a reada-
BILE. worthy and attractive paper. In To-
cal intelligence, in fresh and interesting
news matter, and in the range of political
discussion and general original, without
eEOLlSm we C1lHh our cIOElS IlNdl LhOiO
p~retentious journals of larger places
Our large and increasing list of paying,
bona tite subscribers, representing twenty
four States and three Territories of the
Union, and nearly every county in East
Tennessee as we'll as the liberal and valu-
able Communications we have otherwise
received, afford gratifying assurance that
there is ability, interest and merit in our
labors. |
We enter the third year with renewed
resolves, treasured pledges, frmer pur-
poses, fresher minds, stouter rms drawer
hearts. We are just treading the borders
of the garnished field, whilst its broad
and beautiful expanse invites and leads us
to better and more brilliant results.
Now is the time. the accepted time to
square oil scores, and begin anew with
the happy consciousness of having paid
the faithful printer for another years men
tai food and entertainment.

Hon. Benjamin Butler, the famous
Essex Statesman of New Orleans notorie
ty. has commenced a vigorous canvass fol
the Governorship of Massachusetts, on the
Republican Labor Reform platform. Hi!
structures on the recusants of his own par
ty are very %caustic. The popular tide
seems to be in Ben's favor.
Commissioner Delano, has taken the
stump in the Ohio State canvass, opening
at Sandusky. He commends the Admin
s~tration for economical expenditures, the
faithful collection of the Revenue, the
reduction of Taxation and the War Debt
the general quietude and prosperity of the
country, and the peaceful and honorable
adjustment of our complications with other
nations. He conjures the Republican par.
ty never to surrender, as its grand mis-
sion will not be fulfilled until it has Sc
cured from revolution the government ii
has preserved.
Col. McCook, the Democratic nominee
for Governor, has temporarily withdrawn
from active participation in the canvass,
on account of ill-health. The unremitting
labors of speaking and travel completely
Frustrated his nervours system, enfeebled
when he entered the canvass. His APP
pointments will be filled by other speak
ers. Ohio Republicans are sanguine of
an overwhelming victory.
In Wisconsin, the Democracy nave held
their State Convention and nominated
Senator James r. Doolittle for Governor,
and John A. Rice, for Lieutenant Cover
nor. The resolutions are a running in
dictment against the party in power. based
upon assumptions and a disgusting rehash
of the Democratic twaddle and nonsense
concerning the reserved rights of the
States. their voluntary confederation, the
Tariff question, etc., which have been in
ficted on the public ear from time i'm
