THE PUBLIC PRINTING.

There are now two Democratic rings in
Nashville, each trying to get their hands
in the State Treasury, candidates for the
public printing. The fight between them
is becoming interesting, and though the
Banner affects to treat the opposition to
Jones, Purvis & Co., with ieTity by an
editorial allusion to Col. James White, of
Hawkins, written in vein of supercili-
Gus pleasantly, yet the mask is too thin,"
and its forced POPULARITY is apparent. In
this warfare some truths are told which
would otherwise be denounced as Radical
lies. One of the candidates is Paul, White
& Co. This firm is composed of thirteen
Democratic newspapers in all parts of the
State. What say these thirteen Democrat
newspapers in regard to Jones, Purvis &
Co., having grossly overcharged the State?
Paul, White & Co., have laid on the Ia
bles of members of the Legislature
specimen page showing how the Leg
islative Journals ought to De printed;
pnd how they have been printed.
This one specimen page" states that sit
contains all the matter printed on" three
of Jones, Purvis & Co.'s pages less three
lines. Paul, White & Co., further state
''This is loss to the State arising from a
disregard of the requirements of the Code,
Of about 200 per cent; and the loss does not
stop here, but enters into the cost OF pa
Der and press-work, each Of which items of
expense it increases in about the same pro-
portion.p Here, then, is positive state
ment made by thirteen Democratic news
papers that Jones, Purvis & Co., have over
charged the State "about 200 per cent" in
composition alone and that they have
overcharged the State in paper and press
work" "about the same proportion"
This statement made by Paul, White d
Co., has never been contradicted or in any
particular denied. This statement by thir-
teen Democratic papers is an open, thor
ough and positive refutation of the Legis-
lative whitewashing majority report that
Jones, Purvis & Co., "have been reasonable
in their charges, and just in their de-
mands.n
Here we have Jones, PurviS & Co., con-
DENIED by the Democratic press of Tonnes
see. And thus is the minority report on
the printing frauds vindicated, sustained
and endorsed by thirteen Democratic news
papers. What will the Public Printers
say now Will they say that Baxter or
Gibson have bought these thirteen Demo-
cratic newspapers They dare not say it.
They willkeep silent as they have done.
The Public Printers are thus convicted
and condemned by full jury of Demo-
cratic newspapers.

A Southern exchange credits the Courier
Journal with the following sentiment, ex-
tracted from recent editorial, which we
failed to notice at the time:
"Where is the wonder that we hear the cry

people do not rise in their might, as people less
oppressed and plundered in former times have
often done, and sweep their oppressers and
plundersr from the face of the EARTH

by people even 1'less oppressed, than now,
but somehow the 'old thing worked" ad-
versely, and the people" don't want to

PRINCE BIsNARCK's speech to the MEM
bers of the Prusian Legislature on the SUBJ
ject of the National War Fund Bill is one
of the most important open enuneiations
which the world has had from that famous
statesman for some time. The New York
HcraId'8 statement is that he tells the
Prusians to make ready for war, and AYERS
that such a preparation is rendered
absolutely necessary by the existing con-
dition of affairs in the Old World. When
Prince bismarck makes such an assertion
he knows full well the grounds on which
he makes it, SO that we are forced to ac-
cept the conclusion that Europe is APP
preaching another grand CONFUSION
by war. ..--

the trial of Mrs. Wharton, of Baltimore,
