A very short time ago a loud pre-
tense was made that Grant was about
to issue pardons to certain men in the
Albany penitentiary, charged with be
longing to the Kuklux organization in
North Carolina. Now, it seems the
pardons have been halted. Alleged
information from that State is the re-
ported basis for the change OF lnten-
ton on the part Of the President. 70
litical considerations are far more Ike
ly to be at the bottom Of the back out
in this matter. Keeping these men in
prison may promise more fruits at the
Presidential election in North Carolina
than liberating them, and that is suffi-
Gent to take the key from them and
leave them in their cells. Grants cal
culation is that the hope Of pardon.

Uners to conciliate him by their votes.

our Fear.

We feel great anxiety in regard to
the present unfortunate condition Of
politics in Tennessee. just at a time
when every consideration for the good
Of our State and people, and the whole
nation, demands perfect harmony in
the ranks Of the opponents Of Radical
ism, we fad only discord-discoId in
the face Of the fact that Radicals are
working like bees in the hope Of get.
ting back into power through the folly
which seems TO be leading the Demo
cratic party to destruction. Our heart
would sink if we dld not believe that
before the 5th Of November the people
who gcve over G5,OOO majority against
Stokes in 1869 will recall to mind the
tyranny and %usurpations Of Radicalism
which cursed us so long, and brought
so much suffering, aud, remembering
which, will cease TO allow mere ques-
tons Of individuality to divide them so
rs to insure the election OF Horace
Maynard. than whom a worse man,
not ever Brownlow, could be the rep
rcsentativc of our State in Congress.
lie is worse than a Camanchc Indian in
revenge, and a Nero in principle. That
sinister, snakish look upon his face
would condemn Tim in any republican
tribunal. And yet. we must confess
that the probabilities Of his election
are very luttcriug to the Radicals who
have put him in nomination. Oar
State, in her last gubcrnatolial cleo
ton, gave Wisencr Al, 800 votes,
Brown GOT 7S,9S7--a majority of only
37,479. Now, cannot the mercst tyro
in figures ~calcula te in a moment that
Maynard will be our next Congress
man from the State at large unless the
Democratic party unite to defeat him !?
j. it not paIpable tina. adcilection from
Chcatham Of any considerable number
Of Democrats and Conservatives will
accomplish the result we fear, and
which should be the fear Of every man
who loves his county? Verify, bad
men politically hav" carried to an OK

worse men still are cropping out all
over the State rs ''indcpendcnt candl
dates" Say that conventions are
odious, vet this is no time to do away
with the necessary evil. Destroy them
now ignore their acti0n-and we are
without chart Or compass, whereby to
make any Roadway against the Kadi-
Gals who have put forth their noun
nccs and done so through through the
means Of convention. And yet, half
of this cry about conventions comes
from Radicals fresh from their own
nominating councils. The trick is too
plain, and before the 9th of November
we hope to see a union Of all upon the
regular candidates Of the party. AL
ready the skies are Frightening. The
nomination OF Radical candidates for
the principal Offices has had good eff
feet, aud will, we hope, cause a full
vote for Greeley, Brown, Chcatlam,
and other regular nominees, in oppo
sition to the Radical party. To this
end the Home journal will faithfully
work.
