THE CANVASS,

Very soon the canvass for Governor will
be opened. We understand that a list of
appointment be agreed upon by the
aspirants, and that joint discussions will
take place in various parts of the State.
That there are plenty of subjects to furnish
food for discussion no one doubts. The
laundering incapacity and corruption of
the Democratic State Government will fur
nish Mr.. Freeman with basis for all that
he will have time to say. He will tell of
the Railroad rings-how they swindled
the honest tax payers through the conniv-
ance or inexcusable ignorance of those
whose business it has been to pro-
tect their interests. He will ex-
pose the penitentiary ring, and show
how the State loses from thirty to fifty
thousand dollars per annum more, when
it could be just as easily saved. These
and other questions will engage the atten-
ton of the people for the next two months,
and if they can only be got to thinking,
we have no fears of the result. The Or
gans of these rings will be loud and ear
nest in their appeals to stand by the party
and save the organization, but If the peo-
pie only stop long enough to consider the
great importance of the issue involved.
their frantic appeals will amount to moth
ing.
Let there be an honest, earnest cam
paign in behalf of reform. Let
us take steps for the permanent improve
ment and development of our material
interests. Let the people turn their backs
upon those who have proved unworthy of
their confidence by breaking verypromise
they have ever made, and confide their in
terests in the future to the keeping of diff
ferent class of men. Let public schools,
immigration, the improvement of our pub
lie highways, free suffrage, public econo-
my, &C., be made the issues of the canvass,
forgetting mere men in the importance of
the living issues involved When this be-
comes the issue, we will be perfectly salts
| fled with the result.

DEMOCRATIC papers for several days past
have been attempting to cast odium upon
the President, from the fact that his
brother-in-law, Judge Lewis Dent, had
committed personal assault upon whelp
in the office of the Washington Patriot.
They forget that but few years ago, Dent
was Democratic candidate for Governor
in Mississippi, against General Alcorn at
which time he was thought to be marvel
ously proper man.

Col. KELLAR and Landon G. Haynes
have opened the canvass in the Memphis
district. We can only judge of the result
by the way the appeal treats it. 1t gives
four columns of Haynes and only a half
column of Kellar's. The inference is that
it couldn't stand any more of Kellar's.

THE editor of the big organ, after fort
night of mortal depression, brought about
by failure on the part of his party to ap-
preciate mental and moral worth, or to
properly regard vindicated character,
comes forth from his seclusion with sar-
donic smile on his features, and tries to
chuckle over the prospect of the different
factions of the Democratic party becoming
again united, in view of the action OF the
late Republican Convention. The organ,
under this pressure, makes horrible music.
It sometimes partakes of the nature OF a
dismal growl, and the next moment it is
hysteric shrek. We trust it will get no
worse.
To properly understand the exact con-
dition of the man who is pursuing this
somewhat anomalous course, it is neces-
sary to understand something of his
sore disappointments. 1t is necessary
to know that he failed in getting
the nomination for Congress at Sparta and
subsequently at Nashville. 1t is necessary
to know how he has been groaning in spir-
it for seat in Congress, for 10 these many
years, and that defeat and disappointment
have played havoc with every department.
of the mans physical and mental constitu-
ton. Having failed in obtaining these
nominations, he repudiates the nominee of
one of them, and gives cold support to
the other. He is depressed and seeks re-
lief from the fact that a portion of the Re-
publicans in this State opposed making
nominations, and were defeated in their
schemes. Well, if he can draw any COM
fert from that source we will not begrudge
it to him, for he needs all he can get. But,
for his information, we will state that
however much Republicans may have diff
fered, they are unit in the support of the
ticket nominated and will give it heavy
vote in November.

We are sorry that our space forhids its
