THE ELECTION.
The QladrenniaE Contest Terminated.
The Day Passes OF Very Quietly.

The Day PASSES OF Very Quietly.
The election passed off in this city so
quietly that with the exception Of the sa-
looms being closed. stranger would scarce
~ have perceived any difference between
it and the day previous, unless in the num-
Der OF carriages driven through the streets,
freighted with voters en- route for the va
rious precincts.
At many of the voting places there were
no workers for any of the candidates.
and the soVereigns exercised the right of
suffrage without being importuned by the
friends of rival candidates to vote for their
particular favorite, perhaps, for the first
time i'll life. At others, however, there
was considerable interest manifested and
tickets of all shades, from the "straightsn
on both sides, and gradually changing from
the Presidential nominee until the last
name had totally changed the complexion
and transformed it into one decidedly
mixed.
The Democrats, many of them, felt that
their candidates were not likely to sweep
the field and the name of their Elector for
the State at Large from East Tennessee
was frequently Scratched"
The vote for Congressman at Large
showed that Mr., Maynard still maintain
ed his hold on the affections of his party,
while Gen. Cheatham carried off many
that would have been cast for Johnson a
month ago.
The vote of Knox county up to the time
of going to press with II districts to hear

SAVING IN THE PUBLIC PRINTING.

Last Sunday morning, under the above
caption, we alluded to the saving to the
State in the matter of public printing the
result of Col, BaXter's ventilation and
Senator Gibson's vigilance in the Legisla-
ture. We stated in that editorial that the
Nashville papers had not deigned to
notice the contract with Wheeler, Mar
shall & Bruce, not being willing to let
their readers know to what extent they,
the public printers, have been overcharg
ing the tax payers.
The Banner of Tuesday says we misrep-
resented the facts. Upon investigation we
find that the Banner did notice the contract
under the following circumstances, as we
are reliably informed: When the COM
misioners made the award to Wheeler,
Marshal & Bruce, the reporters of the two
Nashville papers were at the Capitol in the
afternoon, as is their daily custom, and the
item was given them. On their rounds
the next day it was remarked by one of
the State officials, that the item had been
overlooked. The Banner reporter made
some excuse and promised to insert the
following day, which, for some reason
was not done. One ofthe commission
ers who made the award then wrote a
notice of it, and took it to the
Banner office, where he handed it in as
an advertisement, paying for its insertion
Next morning a short notice of the award
appeared, and one of the prOprietOrs re-
turned the money handed in by the State
| officer with an apology for not inserting
before.
The Banner adds:
1t is but fair to say that't the State, in ordering
a thousand copies of the book, instead of six
hundred as heretofore, cheapens the price per
yolume-the composition one thousand or
ten thousand copies costing no more than for
five hundred, 1t was optional with the Printers
to the State to take the contract at the bid which
| Sfgf
do work ut those figures.
That is a sorry plea, as they must know
| that Wheeler, Marshal d Bruce have the
volume we referred TOT 18th HeisllelD stereO-
typed, which adds about 35 per cent. to
the cost, so that the price could not be
cheapened "A great deal. Any man can see
that the difference should not be as much
as S3.25 or more than half
The assertion that it was optional wit q
the public printers to take the work at tn
figures, is not in accordance with the facts
as we understand them, and have them
from good authority. The Law gives au-
thority to the Commissioners to let out the
work and provides that if the public print
ers are as low as the lowest in their bid,
they are to have the preference. Our in
formation is that Roberts d Purvis put in
bid and so did the Union and Imcricdn
Company, but none was put in by Jones,
Purvis IL Co., the public printers. So it
could not have been optional, unless Jones,
Purvis & Co. had put in q bid at ST. per
volume, the price bid 10y Wheeler, Mar
shall * Bruce.
