SPRINGFIELD, Tenn, July q, ISL
Among the many gentlemen of ability and
distinction composing the General Assem- =
bly, Of Tennessee, we are glad to hear the
name of our young and talented fellow
citizen, Capt. Boyd NJ. Cheatham, spoken
of in connection with the Speaksrship OF
the House, by newspapers and cores
pondeDts. Capt. Cheatham, although
young man, is eminently qualified for the
position, snd among sll those who have
been bOnored with 8 seat in the next Leg
islature, there is, perhaps, no one more
endeared 70 his constituency than is our
worthy Representative from Robertson.
More cannot be said in praise OF Boyd
McNa'ry Cheatham, than that he has
proven himself worthy son OF thst
worthy sire, Gen. Richard Cheatham,
who, for ten or twelve years,
represented our county in the
Legislature of the State, was
member of the Constitutional Conven-
ton OF 1854, ana once Represented Inis
district in the Congress of the United
States; who was never defeated, and
whose place in the hearts of his country
men has not been filed since his death,
unless, indeed, it is by his son Boyd.
Boyd served as Clerk of the House of
Representatives when quite boy, and
has served in that capacity once since be
came to manhood's estate. He is now
about thirty years of age, refined and
cultivated gentleman of most pleasing ad-
dress, an orator of rising fame, scholar,
aud well Yarsed in parliamentary usage.
Robertson sends to the next Legislature
from among her young men one whom
she deems not only worthy to represent
her interests, but well fitted for the dudes
of presiding officer. ROBERTSON.
