Revolutionary Eragk Blair.

The Democracy of Missouri have just
elected Frank Blair to the United States
Senate. His platform is as follows:
ST. LOUIS. Jan. 17.-On Friday resOlu-
ton was introduced in the Lower House
of the Legislature endorsing the 18th, 14th
and 10Th amendments, the reconstruction
policy Of the Government, and favoring
the payment of State and National in.
debtedness according to the several con-
tracts upon which the indebtedness is
based. The resolution was debated during
the morning hour Friday and Saturday,
and continued yesterday. 1t has been
stated that the resolution introduced by
Major Pope, of st. Louis, will force Gen.
Blair to sustain the position taken i'll his
famous letter to Col. Broadhead, in 1868,
or recede from it. Yesterday Gen. Blair
spoke on the question, stating that he was
in favor Of the 18Th amendment, and be-
lieved the South generally assented, but
the reconstruction acts he declared uncon-
stitutional, and referred to the decision Of
the Supreme Court in the case of Cum
mings against the State of Missouri; also
to the case of Mulligan and BOwles, tried
by military commission in Indiana during
the war. Referring to his letter to Col
Broadhead, he used the following Ian
guage: Now, sir, my letter which has
been referred to contends that the military
should bemade undo their usurpstions at
the South !; say so still, and you have
only to Withdraw them from the South
and their work will be undone. (Ap-
plause)

Gen. Lees Picture.

! MEssRs. EDITORS You are Aoerai
| enough, am aware, to allow others 10
differ with you. This do in your recent
article concerning the action of the flr-
ginia Legislature in ordering the picture
of Gen. Lee to be hung up in the state
building. Your acords are exceedingly
hard, while your arguments are rather
weak touching this subject.
think the Virginia Legislature had a
perfect right to do just what it did. / do
not speak of General Thomas. That is
another matter altogether. And even in
this case I presume that body had to be
the sole judge of its action in the premises,
and, therefore, could either hang up said
picture or not, Just as may have suited
their fancy or inclination.
But, concerning General Lee | utter an
honest sentiment when l sag that that
body could have done nothing else-noth-
ing more befitting to the memory of that
distinguished gentlemen and upright man
than to place, i'll conspicuous place in the
halls of the Legislature, his likeness. He
had been true to his native State when her
all was imperilled, and that. too without
being a traitor, as you virtually stamp him.
All such filings can never becloud the
memory of the wonderful man, nor bury
his exalted reputation.
You are mistaken in anothec thing, and
which shows that you yet have too much
of the old leaven of bitterness lui king i'll
your bosoms towards the ''0st cause" 1t
is this, that til legislators in question did
what they did out of m dice and dctianc.
towards the Federal authorities, and, ~ :,
consequence, you indirectly Threatens thesn

A Bloody Tragcs.y

The Nashville Banner gives the .o.aw I-, a.
count Of horrible shooting atfray which "ccur-
red at Harris Station, on the Nashville and De-
catur Railroad last Monday, between white
man named William Allison and negro. They
had dispute about q trivial matter, which re-
suited in the negro diseharging ten large buck
shot into Allison's thigh, and Alison's tearing
the negros heart literally to pieces with heavy
load of duck-shot. The negro WAS instantly
killed. Allison was taken to Athens, mortal
wounded. At last accounts only three shot haa
been extracted from his thigh. .
