States.
From these remarks, you will readily infer
that am Ofthe opinion that our people should
candidly consider this matter, and at the earli-
est practical moment confer with Mr.. Pratt on
the subject, before getting too much excited
over enterprises that take all the money out
OF the State, instead of leaving it at home.
Mr.. Editor, would most respectfully suggest
that the citizens call meeting at the court
house, at an early day, and request Mr.. Pratt
10 exhibit his designs and make known his pro-
positions when definite action could be taken
by our citizens. %##

DORSEY B. THOMAS.

/ Among other Middle Tennesseeans who
remained loyal to the Government during
the war, and who are not satisfied with
the grasping spirit exhibited by the ex-
rebels, is Dorsey B. Thomas, Speaker of
the last Senate. We learn that he speaks
in terms of unqualified disapproval of the
spirit displayed, and if he were to speak
his mind plainly, we would not expect
anything complimentary of the party in
Tennessee. He, no doubt, is ready for any
kind of new departure that would secure
proper recognition, from the party, of
those who were Union men during the
war ~ E HH
