To the Electors of the United States:
1T becomes duty to appeal to you
in view of the appalling frauds pcrpc.
trated on the ballot-box in the great
States of Pennsylvania, Ohio and In.
diana, on the Sth of October, instant
Let the facts be submitted, that
Judgment may be pronounced
1t is not even denied, that the parti-
sans of General Grant have been fur
nished with vast amounts ofmoney for
clectioneering purposes. The taxation
of official stipcndarios, the cohtribu-
tions of National Banks and of veal
thy monOpolics dependent upon the
administration for favor and the aid
of heavy government contractors, have
furnished this wealth which has been
used to corrupt the people, or by fraud
to defeat their will.
A large number of voters werc
brought from Kentucky and Illinois
into Indiana, and their ballots illegal
ly cast therein in favor of the Radical
ticket. In Ohio the work of coloniz-
alton was carried on from Kentucky,
but perhaps not so extensively as in
the adjoining States. In Pennsylvania
so stupcndous were the frauds, that
the election was a farce. Colorcd men
were brought from Maryland, Wash
ington, and even from North
Carolina, by the thousand to vote in
this State. The railroads were crowd
ed with laborers from othor States,
whose only duty was TO cast ballot
for the Radical ticket RepcatGrs by
thousands from New York city throng-
cd the streets of Philadelphia on the
eighth of October, and did the work
assigned them at the polls. These
men were pointed ont by detectives to
the authorities of Pennsylvania, and
their arrest requested, but rcfased.--
Notorious New York politicians were
openly cheered in PHILADELPHIA by
squads Of these New York rulians. on
their way from poll to poll to do their
criminal work. All this and much
more is susceptible Of proof, The un-
parallclcd registration in Philadelphia
carries its own evidence of intended
wrong.

CLARKsvILLE, Tenn, Nov. 3, 1872.

Is there decent man, in Tennessee,
who would vote for Brownlow for any
position outside of the Penitentiary
Now, We ask the best informed John
son man to point US to single official
act of that old brute, by which our
people were oppressed and insulted,
that was not originated by old Andy
practiced by him while military Gov
ernor and endorsed by him as Presi-
dent of the United States? The man
who can establish the negative of this
can claim, our vote for
but not for his alternate,
Andrew johnson. We will not waste
upon the decoy, when the
real duck is in sight. When we want
to vote for Radical, we will do it
openly, and not hide under any man
coat-tail whilst we sneak the ticket
into the box.

lpenultures OF our county, with that Ol
1850 and 1860, we are forcibly impres.
sed with the enormity of our extrava.
gance. 1t is but reasonable to sup
pose, that the per cent. on taxable
property, must increase in proportion
TO the diminished valuation of taxa
bic property, to meet the required de-
mahds, but it is not essentially neces-
sary that our county expenses should
be increased, as they have, to two or
three hundred per cent. since the war.
This, fellow-citizens, / think is the
result of the establishment Of our
County Criminal Court, which costs
our county not less than ten thousand
dollars annually. l advocate the nee
essity of repeating these obnoxious
laws which are so detrimental to the
interests of the people, and in which
the people had no voice in creating,
and also the law establishing our
County Court Judge. Thus dispens-
ing with the County Judge, and the
expenses connected Herewith, and
having it conducted by chairman of
the Court as heretofore. This will
relieve our poor tax ridden people of
a burden which, if continued much
longer, will become insupportable, l
am further in favor of revising our
revenue laws, in regard to the man
ner of collecting the same. Let the
constable in each Civil District, and
require him to give bond, and col
lect the taxes in his district, or for
several districts, and by this system
we would have our taxes collected
without SO much expense to our coun-
ty, and comparatively no delinquent
list. / am in favor of increasing the
Jurisdiction of the Magistrates to any
amount ON notes. If his quali6ca-
tions are such that he may give de-
cision on note of five hundred dol
lars, he certainly is competent to give
judgment on any amount. | am fur
ther in favor Of all cases of petit lar
ceny being tried before Magistrate,
or three Magistrates, and if the client
wishes a jury, empannel it, and try
him and discharge him, without this
unnecessary cost to our county of keep
ing hin in Jail two or three years. /
am in favor of abolishing the Office of
County Trustee; our money when col
lected can be deposited in the Bank
for safe keeping, without the unnec-
essary expense Of having an officer to
take charge of the same, saving ten
or twelve hundred dollars. Or in case
there. are no Banks, let it pass through
the hands of the County Court Clerk
These, Fellow citizens, are some of
my views upon the retrenchment sys-
tenn, these are matters of vast impor-
tance to each and every one of you.
Fellow-citizen l am in favor of
curtailing these unnecessary expenses,
and if elected, l will use my utmost
influence to relieve you of the burdens
which now press so heavily upon you
Citizens of the counties Of Robert
son and Stewart, | am not sufficiently
familiar with the condition of your
local and financial affairs, to offer any
amendments, but be assured, if elect
ed, will use all honest means in my
power, to relieve your distress and pro-
mote your prosperity and happiness,
unbiased by all outside influences.
Respectfully, your obcdient and
humble servant,

fingly asked by those who have so sue.
cesstully worked this iniquity, What
ARE you going to do about il ?" The
answer remains with you. BE not de.
luded with the response that both par
ties are alike guilty. This is the veal
evasion of the enemy. Let villainy
such as indicated, be becrushed, whoever
may suffer. Let no one for a moment
believe that the Liberal Republicans
participated in these acts of violence
against an honest election. Every
suggestion of such nature was con-
demned, and, so far as known, such
acts were in no case attempted. The
Liberal Republican party was organ :
lied to resist this very abuse, not to
encourage il.
Fellow-countrymen, the purity of
the ballot.box must be defended, or
dangers the most momentous threaten
the Republic. The ballot is the very
corner stone of our national existence.
When that fails, ruin envelops all
Unbounded wealth has been the bane
of nations before our time. Has this
disease by which other States have fall
len attacked us at last in the most vi
tai part, the sanctity of the ballot?
Our people will bow in submission to
an honest election, but who shall dc.
clare that an executive chosen by dis
honest means, which annuls the popu-
lar will, may command popular obedi.
enceY Corruption grows with its own
success, and as may be expected, let
these base deeds of the dominant par
ty be repeated in November, and who
shallsay that the hour may not be fast
approaching when some energetic
spirit shall thunder in the willing ear
of an outraged nation that physical re-
slstance to such infamy is obedience to
God.
Fellow-countrymen, the remedy is
in your own hands Rebuke those
who in open day so shamelessly bring
this disgrace upon us. Our national
security demands your action. The
vote is yet in your hands, and the in
suit to these three great common
wealths may be avenged. In spite of
the frauds perpetrated, We have carried
Indiana, reduced the vote greatly in
Ohio, and lost Pennsylvania only by
startling corruption. The future is
full of promise. Georgia proclaims in
her great majority that the suffering
Southern States, in their desire for
equal right before the law, will give
one hundred and twenty five electoral
votes to Horace Greeley. An honest,
Christian sympathy in the North will
add to this more than enough votes to
make his election sure. There is
every cause for encouragement, and
every reason to hope for success.
Let there be 40 laggard now. He
is traitor who falters as the combat
opens. Forward along the entire line
aud by an overwhelming victory in
November, not only declare for Ma
tional Reconciliation and Reform, but
at the same time let the lesson be ef-
fective and lasting, that money cannot
purchase the Office Of President, nor
political infamy go unrebuked.

strongly recommended the building of
more parsOnages.

has reached the state most desirable to the

proportion of a tumbler and half to the
barrel Of cider, and shake up well. This
arrests further fermentation, and after re-
naming few weeks may be racked off in
clean casks, and the air excluded by closing
the bung. Cider preserved in this way
+, has pleasant, agreeable flavor.
