The New County Site.

The following letter appears il
the Nashville Banner
TULLAHoMA, TENN, Nov. Is.
70 the Editor Of The Banner:
Much interest is manifested in
regard to the new county, which
is to be composed OF parts of Bed
ford, Lincoln, franklin and COT
fee, The bill has passed the
third reading in the Senate, and
the question of county or no
county," will soon be before our
people, and we feel confident that
the'new county will be established.
We hear it rumOred that the peo-
pie of this place have made this
proposition tothe people Of Lynch.
burg: "Give us the county seat,
or you can have it, and build your
courthouse and Jail, as we have
just got through paying taxes for
the Manchester courthouse" " ]
think the peop'e of Lynchburs
would act wisely by giving Tulla
homa the county site; then all
would be taxedto build the court
house and Jail.
We are decidedly in favor OF
Tullahoma being the county site,
as it is the place for it. When !
make this assertion, | reflect the
sentiments of a large number of
persons residing in all Of the coun-
ties interested. FLIPPUS.
Although a disinterested party,
we object to the conclusions of the
writer. If the new county be es-
tablished, Lynchburg ought to
have the county-seat. 1t is the
richest part of the proposed coun,
ty-the largest portion OF the
taxes will have to come from there
and vicinity-its people are en-.
terprising, wide awake, and would
at once give Moore character for
energy and thrift. II the people
Immediately interested want a
new county, Lincoln can spare
enough of its territory to supply
its proportion, and, as we said
weeks ago, no one hereubout
objects. Last week we gave opin-
ions from other counties, on the
same subject, in order that our
readers might have all the facts.
Our opinion remains unchanged,
that it would be right for the Leg
iSlature to authorize the forma-
tion of Moore, provided a survey
furnishes the requisite territory.

That Grant is stubborn as well as stolid

all the old original abolitionists, he per.
sists in his scheme OF annexation and
keeps a constan. watch and guard over the
old Island where Columbus first landed.
A large naval force is constantly there,
protecting Baez and warning of all out
side intrud ers. The foreign Secretary OF
the negro President has been in Washing
ton and, on his return TO San Domingo, the
%oficinl organ announced that be had con-
shifted with the "illustrious Grant, Don
Samuel Howe and Gen. Babcoque," and
had assurance of the coming annexation.
Lately o difficulty with England has been
brewing in connection with this matter.
The English merchants have been ad van

he agreed that the bonds, issued therefor,
thould be received at the Custom Houses

Editorial Notes.

Hon. Thomas Ewing, of Ohio, one Of the
old politicians OF That State, and well
known throughout the Union, died Oh the
Goth ult.
A son of Roger a Pryor, formerly Of Vir.
sinin, but since the war, n resident ofNew
York city, was lately found drowned in
North river. iIewns said to be n young
mnn of remarkable promise, and ii is sup :
posed tim, he walked of the wharf in a
state of brain fever.
Senator Morton, of Indiana, has gone to
the Geysers, in California, for the i'm
proScmcnt of his health. He has long
been diseased, and has been pronounced
incurable.
1t is said that the people of. Chicago d,
not call for theiI letters as at first after the
fire. A huge list has been advertised. We
presume large numbers have left the de-
voted city for other points. We hear OF
them scattered all over the South in every
direction. Let them come-they shall be
welcome to Texas.
The Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser no.
tees the death Of the Hon. r. Jem!son, of
that State, which occurred At Tuscaloosa ,
on the 10th ult. This gentleman had long
been identified with the politics and lead
ing interests of Alabama and was, during
the days of the Coufederacy, n Senator to
the Congress. lie was held in high esteem
by oil parties.
Gov. Clayton, Of Ark, now Senator from
that State, has been acquitted on the indict-
me Mt for committing election frauds while
Governor. lie did hot deny the frauds,
but pleaded that n Governor of a State was
an selection officer under the law, aud so
the Judge decided, and the Honorable has
gone "unwhipped of justice.'
The Cherokee Advocate announces the
death of the Hon. Pig Smith, a chief of the
Nation and member elect of the Senate.
Bailey, tho N. Y. Iefaulting Revenue Col
~lector, who left the country some time ago
for parts unknown, having swindled the
Treasury to an immense amount, has turn
ed up in South America. A late traveller
discovered him in Montevideo, living in
luxury, and on the best terms with the
Governm ents's representative there. He
denied being a defaulter, but said that he
had spent large sums in ferreting out
frauds on the Treasury, aud went away be-
cause he did not like to embarrass the
Grant administration. That will do. What
honest men these ~rascals arel
As we always supposed, the great fire Of
Chicago was much exaggerated. About
one third Of the city was burned, and two
Of the best commercial papers of New York
now put down the loss, one at $~75.000.OOO,
and the other, the latest cslulaior, at $685.

but there is no use in making it worse
than it was. Chicago will soon get over
it and be handsomer and gayer than ever
we suspect.
