WHAT HARDNESS OF HEART.

The Louisville COurier-JOUTn0li in speak
ing of the Boston fire refers to the misery in
flicted upon the South during the war and
to the lack of sympathy expressed in the
North, and says:
Though the city has been the dweling-place
of so much bitterness TO ward the South, there
were many there, and many now among the
sufferers of this fire, who entertained very diff.
ferent feelings.
We cannot see the propriety or taste of
raking up these war passions in such an
hour. But it is cruelty unjust to Boston,
as the people of East Tennessee will testi-
fy. When the Union people of this Sec
ton were driven as refugees to the Ohio
by the hardships of war, the people of Bos-
ton were first and most liberal to re-
spond to their wants. When the
gifted Taylor with an eloquence that
charmed even Edward Everett aud drew
from him the highest praise, pictured to
the people of that good city the misery of
East Tennesseeans, they gave with a lib
eral hand, and how gratefully that aid was
received here our people well remember.
But even if Boston had not then shown
how generous and noble her people were,
we can not understand the hardness of
heart that now, in the hour Of her misfor-
tune, would call her to the bar of judgment
on such charge. Such o spirit is a dis
grace TO Southern journalism and we hope
Will find encouragement nowhere outside
of that Office.

A MISTAKE.

We are personally acquainted with the
editors of the Washington Republican and
know they would not Intentionally mis-
represent fact. We see in its issue of the
18th this statement:
1t wa only two weeks ago that Republican
of this city was shot through the arm and that
dozen bullets grazed his head, because, On the
stump IN Tennessee, he spoke in favor Of the
reelection of Gen. Grant and against Mr.. Gree
ley.
Now such an assault may have been
committed, but if so, we never heard of it.
Horace Maynard spoke fearlessly and
bluntly in defence of Grant, but aside from
rude Interruptions in one or two counties
he was heard everywhere with respect.
There are some two or three counties in the
State where Republican speakers have
been threatened with violence and where
they were actually in danger. But the above
extract in so far as it makes an impression
that in any considerable portion of Ten
nessee it would be unsafe for q Republic
can to speak, does injustice to our State
The time was, when men could not vote
or speak as they pleased in sections of Ten
nessee, but we 6eyicrc and hone that time
is forever past. We think the recent cleo
ton has 'inaugurated n new era in the
South and that hereafter we shall have
greater liberation for those who honestly
differ in politics If we are mistaken the
South has not yet borne her last defeat for
freedom of speech is one guarantee, Amer
leans Will have in every State and section.

THE "couH1ER,JouRNAI" IMPROVING.

The editor of the COuricr-JourRaL had
most fearful attack of madness immediate
ly after the returns of the late election
came in, and showed evident signs of hy-
drophobia. He frothed and foamed and
raved about " the devil in the air." and
" the dog of Radicalism having his day.
Grant and Cameron and ConSlng and
Morton were alluded to in the choicest bill
lingsgate. We felt sorry for that highly
influential and enterprising journal for thus
exposing its unfortunate fit o. madness.
Observation teaches us that when one gets
so hot, he ought to hold his tongue until
he cools off, We knew that the sober
second thought of the CoUrier-JOUrnul
would teach it better things, and it has
In late number it says:
But while, rs we have intimated, in Grant S
recollection the American people incurred a
great peril it is also true that, if anything like a
free election is allowed in 1876, we shall proba-
bly, succeed in dispossessing the Radicals of
their ill-used power.
That's better. In homely hunter phrase,
dick your flint and try it again" The
Radicals carried the day this time,
but in 1876 you can just give them
Jessie" 1t is much better to defy
your opponents and tell them you
will beat them next time, than to be
"making mouths at them or calling them
hard names. 1t is more dignified and
more in keeping with the character of a
metropolitan journal.
In the same editorial, upon the spirit of
which we are congratulating this depress-
ed giant, it consoles itself with the follow
ing cheerful conclusion
If the election had come off on the 10th of
July instead of tho 9th Of November it is very
certain that Horace Greeley instead of L. s.
Grant would now be the President elect Of the
United States.
We now expect to hear no more about
"auld nick" in the air or the dogs of Rad
icalism having their day. If the election
had taken place in July-in dog days
then Democratic dogs would have then
had their day, but it didn't take place.
hence the result. But cheer up, There's
a better day a coming

A TESTIMONIAL.

The CHRONICLE has received in many
its friends for its work in the late canvass,
We have not published any of these be-
cause we thought our services were fully
appreciated and needed no praise in our
own columns. But the following letter we
give to our readers, though we are sure it
was not intended for the public, because
we wish to show how thoroughly alive the
people are to the importance of the great
reforms the CHRONICLE has battled for
from its first issue 1t shows the value of
newspaper work, and should encourage
our friends to give good newspapers a cor
dial and active support. There is no way
in which we can keep the people aroused
so well as through good journals.
We value highly this testimonial, as it
comes from friend whose judgment and
good will we highly esteem:
MEssRs. RULE q KICKS: You deserve
we'll of your countrymen, and when I say
that | mean It'll doubly mean it. When
men labor as you have labored for the sue
cess of great and noble party, a party of
principle and not for any single man, their
services demand appreciation, and writing
you this confidential note is part of my
appreciation bat it shall not stop at that
Whenever and wherever am the CHRONI-
Gle shall have fri nd, a supporter and
if needs be, defender. Much of our I'M
surpassed Republican victory in Tennessee
is directly owing to your paper When
you discarded eight by ten Republicanism
you started the nail that will, when driven
home hide forever from the public gaze the
graveyard face of the Democratic party.
/ bid you God speed. Never take back
ward step, make our platform so broad and
strong that all creation can stand upon it,
Now is the time to strike for an improved
system of public schools. Insist upon the
most extensive and liberal system. let
your imagination take the widest flight
on that subject, you can not go far ahead
of what the people want they will sus-
tain you make it a cardinal principle of
our party as considered from local point
of view insist upon our public roads be-
| ing improved and made all that roads
could be made. All this the CHRONICLE
has long since urged and insisted upon and
make the suggestion that we may keep
so far ahead of all opposition that opposf-
| ton will cease. We have the lead and /
hope we will have the good sense to keep
it. The CHRONICLE is the exponent of our
party in Tennessee, and as it has always
done, / hope it will ever do, take the
highest grounds in all that is pure, honest
and right.

THE DEFUNCT LEADERS.

The recent unmistakable verdict of the
people at the ballot box developed one
gratifying fact, and that is that those who
have been acting in the capacity of Demo-
cratic leaders have lost their influence, and
will have to take back seats in the political
synagogue. These men, and especially
Democratic leaders in the South, have
demonstrated that they care nothing for
principle, but are willing to pursue any
policy to get Office. The people, by their
verdict on the 9Th of November, put a
quetus on this class of politicians and
henceforth they will not be recognized as
leaders. We say this is gratifying, for, to
the efforts of these political dead weights,
the credit is due for the slow progress
the South has made on the pathway to
advancement. They have obstructed in
every possible way, all the progressive
features of this progressive age, and while
our Northern and Western neighbors have
advanced with wonderful strides, we have
stood comparatively still, and occasionally
gone backward.
The glazing acts of duplicity, which have
characterized the conduct of these time
servers in the past have been exposed
and they will be judged in the future by
their records in the past. Men who fought
the 18th, 18th and 18th Amendments to
the bitter end, and then with a hope of
getting office were willing to support for
the Presidency, man who had
not only advocated with his whole power
the adoption of these amendments, but
had exhausted the vocabulary for words to
express his condemnation of Democrats,
have shown greediness for position which
honest people cannot endorse and will not
soon forget.
The prospect of getting rid of these
would-be leaders, goes far towards recon-
Cling the masses who opposed the election
of Grant. They are not only reconciled,
but thousands of them actually rejoice at
the result. They know that it rids the
country of an incubus in the way of its
prosperity. Hence the masses are recon-
ciled if not .ubilant. The people have real
cause for rejoicing.

a sUPREMELY foolish story has been
published in the Atlanta Herald and found
its way into several other journals, to the
effect that Thomas G.. Boyd, whose disap-
pearance from Sweetwater under unenvi-
able circumstances, we noticed some time
ago, was really murdered In the follow
ing paragraph found in the Herdld's arti-
Gle, we heartily know whether to smile at
its gullability or to look with contempt on
its mean spirit:
The opinions of the unprejudiced is, that he
was murdered not only for his money, but for
the purpose of gratifying some feelings of per-
sonal hatred-the result of an antagonism of
feeling during the late war-Captain Boyd be-
ing in the rebel service.

TO THE CHRONICLES READERS.

With this issue ends the subscription of
our Campaign" subscribers. We give
them in this issue full returns of the Presi-
dental election.
We trust that all of them will now be-
come regular subscribers to the CHRoNI-
Gle. We appeal to them to say if we
have not faithfully defended Republican
principles and advocated the good cause.
This glorious victory we celebrate was not
won alone by the work of the short can
vass Just ended. For two years the CHRON-
ICLE has, week after week and day after
day, in every conceivable form putbefore
the people the arguments so vigorously
pressed in the late campaign. 1t is not the
CAMPAIGN papers that bring about such
revolutions rs we have just witnessed in
Tennessee. Such victories are the result
of earnest work by the press thatincessant-
ly labors to awaken the people to a sense of
their wrongs and doings. Will not the
Republicans of Tennessee sustain a paper
that helps win such glorious victories ?
We ought to have a club in every civil dis
trict in every county, We offer special
inducements to circulate the CHRONICLE.
We will send our weekly one year to any
postoflice with five subscribers at one dol
lar and fifty cents each.
We have expended for the last two years
the equivalent of fifteen hundred dollars
per year in advertising in the North the adj
vantagcs East Tennessee affords to immi-
grants. We have published weekly arti-
Giles about our section that have brought to
our midst hundreds and thousands of val
liable citizens. Each immigrant brings
money and labor and helps pay Off our
heavy public debt and reduce our taxes.
Should not the people of East Tennessee
sustain the paper that helps them i'll this
way? Every good citizen is intereSted in
encouraging the CHRONICLE. 1t h&tone
more to develop the country and encourage
a progressive, liberal and national spirit
than any paper ever published in this sec
ton. The people owe it to themselves to
build up such a journal.
We hope that we will not lose a subscri-
Der. We hope that our friends everywhere
will see that the CHRONICLES circle of
readers is enlarged. Reader, will not you do
it? Do not wait for any one else. Do it
yourself and we willsee you do not lose by
your efforts in our behalf One dollar and
half is very little for a paper for one year.
That small sum can not be expended in
any better way. Help the paper that
builds up your State and you will never re-
greet it. Send along the names.

TIE disastrous fires in Chicago and Bos-
ton have set the people of this country to
studying very important lesson. In the
construction of buildings in cities, too lit
tie regard has been paid to danger from fire.
Rigid regulations should be provided for
the protection of the public against the de-
vouring element. Whether Mansard
roofs or any other kind Of roofs are
the most liable to take fire from
an adjacent burning building should be
determined and remedy provided. Com
paratively few cities have a perfectly or
ganized fire department. In this we show
spirit of gross negligence, and never
awake to its importance until we haye
feft its results. No city should be without
well organized fire department. 1t is too
late to organize when your house is once
on fire.
