then get rid of them.

T0oMBs ON THE SITUATION.

On Thursday night of last week, Gener-
al Tombs, of Georgia, made characters
tic speech at Atlanta, Ga, from which we
present few choice extracts. Speaking
of Grant and Greeley, he said:
Now this is a very plain question--there is no
trouble about it. Show me man that tried to
make a party out of negroes, and will show
you Greeley man. Show me Bullock man
that has turned Democrat, and / will show you
Greeley, mana thief that has robbed the
State, and L will show you Greeley man.
Show me one Of the Mitchell orphans, and I
viii show you Greeley man. Show me a
State road lessee, and I will show you Gree
ley man; but show me an honest man and /
viii show you an anti-Greeley man.
Why, we have no question with u.s. There

For months past, we have admired the
independence, franl1ness and fairness of
the Memphis AUdLd,1cbe. Its editors are
high-toned gentlemen, and if their counsel
had been needed, there would have been
less reason for the minority in this State to
complain at the vindictiveness of the DOM
inant party in this State. But with all
their fairness, they sometimes fall into
strange Inconsistencies. For instance, in
last Saturdays issue Of that paper, we find
the following:
We are now in the eigth year since hostilities
closed During that time the country has been
in profound peace. Yet the policy Of the Ad-
ministration, instead of relaxing its rigors has
constantly increased them. The little Of liber-
atty toward the South with which it started out
has been lost in bayonet laws, the subordinatiDg
Of everything to the central power at Washing
ton.
Here is an admission that under Grants
administration the country has enjoyed
profound peace" Is it consistent with
reason that profound peace y should exist
while he was constantly increasing his
rigors, of which complaint is made, in
stead of relaxing them? And the AvG-
La1chc knows very well that the "bayonet
laws were enacted by Congress, and were
approved and earnestly advocated by Hor-
ace Greeley, its candidate for President.
We defy the AUaLancde or any other sup
porter of Greeley to mention single one
of the "bayonet laws" passed previous to
his nomination, that was not approved bv
him.

ENCOURAGING.

All the signs of the times indicate that
we are going to have one of the most sue
cessful fairs ever held in East Tennessee
the coming fall. We hear of quite a num-
coming from abroad. The exhibition of
live scock, from all accounts, will be un-
precidentedly good. Our own section will
be fully represented.
We have not seen the premium list, but
understand that it is extremely encourag-
ing. The premiums are very liberal, and
consist of money altogether. This will
suit the farmers. The premiums on live
stock will draw out all the good stock of
the country. Keep the ball rolling!

a REMARKABLE CONVERSION.

We do not believe there is a case in his
tory furnishing parallel for the remark
able conversion of the Democratic party
from the error of their way to the princi-
pies for which Republicans have victori-
ously contended. When the latter party
first came into existence, Democratic ora
tors and politicians were trying to prove
that slavery was of divine origin, and that
the DEGREES Of the Almighty would per-
petuate the institution in spite of such
freedom shriekers'' as Charles Sumner,
Horace Greeley, VIM. Lloyd Garrison and
others. A few years after, they plunged
the country into civil war to show their sim
certify in proclaiming the divine origin of
the institution. Still later, when Abraham
to emancipate the slaves
without consulting Democrats, they avowed
that they would die in the /" last ditch"
before they would submit to anything of
the kind. But in the face of their armed
hosts and solemn prOtestations, the color
ed race obtained their freedom. Next
came proposition to give the colored man
civil rights in so far as to allow him to tes-
tify in courts of justice. The Democracy
was again on hand to show how the courts
would be prostituted, and how freedom to
the white race would be a mockery under
such circumstances. 1t was gravely stat
ed beyond the possibility of doubt, that
the " niggers would all swear lies, and
for that reason such privilege ought not
to De granted them. Under laws passed
by Republican Congress, these rights
were accorded to the colored an, and
after bitter fight the States finally adj
mitted colOred men as competent witnesses
in the courts of the country. But it did
not stop there. The Republicans said the
colored man was citizen and must be al
lowed to vote. Opposition came fiercer
and more determined than ever. Demo
Gratis said that it would ruin the country
and they never would submit to such de-
grading proposition. They talked about a
war of races and all such stuff as that.
But State after State adopted negro suf-
frage, and finally the Fifteenth Amend
ment forced it on those that did not adopt
