long as it conducts public affairs in the
satisfactory manner which has character

we believe the principles of the Republic

we believe to be right, with whatever abil-

the right to think and act for

SENATOR sTALEY's REMARKS.

The Nashville papers undertook to re-
port Senator Staley's remarks on the bill
to create the office of Attorney General for
Knox county, and in doing so, did him
injustice. They represent him as saying
that he would not oppose the bill-that
the amendment offered by him would not
defeat the bill, but that the legislation was
useless, &c. Here is the substance of what
he said:
The object of this bill is said to be for the
purpose of bringing criminals to speedy trial in
the Criminal Court of Knox county. The At
torney General of the Third Judicial Circuit
1t is said, is also the prosecuting officer in the
that some of the courts of the Third Circuit are
held at the same time fixed for holding the
Criminal Court it frequently happens that the
latter court is without prosecuting officer. If
this be the only reason for the passage of the
bill, the difficulty can be more easily obviated
by bill to change the times of holding the
courts in the Third Circuit. A bill of this kind
could have long since been passed. In this
view, the legislation is unnecessary and the
expense of an additional officer will be
the difficulty can not be thus obviated,
and the object of the bill be as stated,
the amendment proposed will not defeat
it. The present incumbent is probably as able
a PEosFcutinR oncer as hSrS Is IA INC DtAte,
He wac unanimously elected by the people Of
the Third Circuit. He is acceptable to the peo-
pie of Knox. There is no good reason why he
should not be permitted to continue to be the
prosecuting officer for Knox county. An At
torney General for the Third Circuit can be APP
pointed as provided in the amendment
If on the other hand, the object of the bin be
not as asserted, but be designed to legislate the
present incumbent and Of office and make room
for some other, whom it is denied to favor,
then the amendment will be voted down
Adopt the amendment and shall not oppose
the bill.
1t is said the bill will not deprive the present
incumbent of his Office in the other counties in
the Third Circuit. / can not concur in this
opinion. Ny construction Of the constitution
is different and think that upon the passage
Of this bill the present incumbent will cease t.
be an officer.

WHY is TT

When the bill for establishing the Grim
inal District Of Knox county was before
the Senate on the third reading, Senator
Staley offered an amendment to the effect
tina, as an Attorney General had been
elected for the Judicial Circuit which in
cludes the county of Knox, and rs said
circuit is now divided by this act 80 as to
provide for two Attorney Generals in the
Third Circuit rs originally constituted,
therefore, that the Attorney General here
to,ore elected by the people be considered
the Attorney General for that part OF the
Circuit In which he resides. The amend
ment was voted down, showing conclu-
sively that II @ object was 10 get rid Of
Tho,nbuTgh, ana not for the purpose OF
iac' iIatiul husiner- before the Courts. We
will allude to this again.

JUST So"

The effervescent editor of the Press and
Herald RECEIVERS from his normal condition
of tameness, on Wednesday morning, and
emits an unusual quantity of gaseous mat
ter, to which he calls attention by heading
his effusion, Tennessee's Dethroned but
Restless Tammany," by which he means
the Republican party in Tennessee. By
the way, we had no idea he would apply
the word "Tammany as term of OPP
probium, when, but q few months ago, he
was half inclined to defend that Demo-
cratic organization from thesdamaging as
saults of the Times. We imagine that we
can see the great man, as he took up his
pen to communicate to the world the pom
derous ideas contained in that editorial,
and can see him as he, with an air of self
importance, called the attention of his
comrades to the great undertaking, and
said, "iust watch me skin 'en.n And
then he commences his ponderous blows
upon the devoted head of the Republican
party" making it appear just as " clear
as mud,n that the " burthens OF taxa
tion,n with which Tennessee now suffers,
were left us as q legacy by the Radical
party, which tyrannized and Tammany-
lied in the State.u We imagine, when
the good man wrote this last sentence,
he laid down his pen and Joined
in q general huzZa, while the ST.
mon pure spectators made the room re-
sound with cries of "good ~ " that is
good! ~ and then adjourned to Bismarck
Hall for refreshments. He then defends
Governor Brown and the Legislature; and
closes with this spiteful sentence;
But the Legislature will, doubtless, go ahead
with their duties undisturbed by the paper. pei
lets of restless imbeciles. The people of Ten
nessee know who imposed these burdens upon
them. They are painfully aware of the impoy-
erished condnion of the Treasury and who is
responsible therefor. And knowing, they can
not be brought to trust their betrayers and de-
spoilers, the Radical Tammany of Tennessee,
even to the extent Of giving any credit to the
noisy DISCLAIMERS against the Conservative Elk
ecutive and Legislature knowing that by the
noise it is sought to cover the steaings and cor
ruption of Radicalism.
Now about those "stealings.o When
STEALING" is referred to in Tennessee, it
is generally understood to apply to bonds
issued since the war. We say that it is
the general understanding. Now we
would like to ask this great and good edi-
tor, who is the greatest rogue, the man
who issued the bonds, or the man who
stole them after they were issued? The
first might have been an error of the head.
The latter was the result of depravity in
the heart, Now will the editor inform his
readers to whom these bonds were issued?
Will he be specific in this matter, giving
names, dates and amounts? He says a
score of millions of dollars was added to
the State debt and the State made bank
rupt by Radicals. Will he be kind enough
to specify Just how this "score of millions
of dollars . was added to the debt? What
we want to know is, who got it? Who
squandered it? Again we say, be explicit.
Give us names, dates and amounts.
