The Washington correspondent OF
the Cincinnati Commercial says that
with the ngle exception of Hon. ID.
w. VOORHEES,, every Democratic
member of Congress, has either come
out in favor of GREELEY or will sup
port him in the event he is nominated
by the Baltimore Convention. The
same correspondent says:
"a prominent Liberal Republican
Senator said toyour correspondent to-
day that the most suspicious sign OF
the times was the interest which the
South was once more taking in Ma
tional politics. He said that four
more years of the same policy which
had obtained under GRANTS admin
istration toward the section would
destroy whatever American feeling is
now to be found there, and would
build up class of disconnected States
which would be found exceedingly
dangerous in case of foreign compli-
cations. Among the most important
advantages to come out of the pres
ent campaign, he thought, were those
which would entirely abolish old wal
issues and give 10 the country broad
er questions, in which the South
could take fraternal interest

Habeas Corpus.

Although certain Republican MEM
bers of the House are secretly oppos-
ed to passing the Senate bill to ex-
tend the suspension OF the writ of
habeas corpus through the Presiden-
tial campaign, and give the Demo-
cratic side assurances that there is
enough of them to prevent its passage
the Democrats do not propose to trust
them by allowing the bill to go to
straight vote. q ilar promises under
the same circumstances were made a
year ago and violated; besides, it is
apparent from every quarter that this
habeas corpus bill is an Administra-
ton measure, and is to be pushed
through. Mr.. CoNKLING, in the Sem
ate, last Tuesday, distinctly intimat-
ed that it was best to hold back the
appropriation bills until the habeas
corpus and civil rights bills were act
ed on, and not be caught b. an early
adjournment. Should these bills not
be acted upon, it is openly declared
that the President will convene an
extra session and send in message
requesting that they be made into
laws

Horace GREELEY's letter, accept
ing the nomination given him at
Cincinnati, is an able and statesman
like document. His platform OF
principles are even more broad and
unscctional than those enunciated by
the LIBERAL Republican Convention.
Everywhere in the South, and espe-
cially in Tennessee, his nomination
has been accepted as a good chance
10 get rid of military rule and cor
Tupt administration. The Southern
people believe that his election will
break forever the power of Radical
ism, and inaugurate an era of pes ce
and good will which will never again
be disturbed.

work of your convention was recciv-

comments of journalists independ-

The number and character of these

taneous and deserved tribute to the
admirable platform of principles
wherein your convention SO terselv,

Hon. w. &. WHITTHoRNE has re-
Gently made a very cogent and able
speech in Congress on the tariff ques-
ton. We regret that the length Of
the speech prevents us from publish
ingi in full. He, OF course, took
grounds in opposition to protective
tariff, aud shows conclusively that
only the States of New York, Mas
sachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania
and New Jersey, receive any benefit
from a protective tariff, and that it
falls like a heavy burden upon the
people at large. lie is in favor of
levying just such a revenue tariff as
will be sufficient to defray the cur
rent expenses ofthe government, and
no more. He also goes on TO show
that forty millions of dollars are an
nually collected in excess of what is
Necessary for government expenses,
and that immense sums of the reve-
nue. collected are never accounted for
to TIE government.

ONE fact alone will carry the South
for Greeley: he has always waged q
fierce and relentless war on pilfering
carpetbaggers who have been the
pest and terror of the whole South.
ern country since the close of the war,
and whose reckless thievery has in
volved most of the Southern States
inextricably in debt. In one of his
speeches he gave utterance to the fol-
lowing aphoristic description of a
carpetbagger: "They are fellows
who crawled down South in the
track of our armies, generally very
safe distance in the rear, some of them
on suffers wagons, some bearing
cotton permits, some of them look
ing sharply to see what may turn up,
and they remain there 80 Some of
them get elected Senators, others
Representatives, some Sheriffs, some
Judges and 80 forth, And they
stand right in the public eye steal
ing and plundering, many of them
with both arms around negroes, and
their hands in their pockets, seeking
to see if they cannot pick paltry
dollar out of them. = Let us pray,
they say. But they spell pray with
an e, and thus spelled, they obey the
apostolic injunction to prey without
ceasing."

ACCORDING to the late apportion.
ment Bill passed by Congress, Ten.
nessee is entitled to an additional
Representative, and Ex-President
ANDREW JOHNSON and Ex-Governor
FooTE are announced as candidates,
for the State at large. AS between
these two distinguished gentlemen,
the people will infinitely prefer the
former. Though opposed to the
South and his own State during the
late war, yet after it was over he
sacrificed himself in endeavoring to
re-habilitate the States lately in re-
bellion, and in trying to prevent all
the ubiquitous legislation by which
the South has been oppressed by Rad
icalism since the cessation of HOSTILE
tics. He is still in the strength and
pride of his great intellect, and would
make an able champion of the South
in Congress. Gov. FooTE is not re-
spected by anybody; has been on all
sides of all questions, and is too old
and truculent.
