THAT BLOODY CHAsM.

In the early part of this extraordinary
and unique, campaign, Greeleyites in this
State inaugurated system of hand-shak-
ing "across the bloody chasm" all of
which looked well enough until their
meaning became understood. In Tennessee
they have fully explained it. 1t means to
give rebel officers all the positions of hon
or or profit. BLIZZARD, Fleming, John
Williams, Garrett, and others understood
it. Billiards. confederate friends at Cleve-
land said they would vote as they shot and
Blizzard fell MORALLY wounded. Col. Key
was "big Ike' because his name appear
ed on the muster rolls.
AT Sparta, when the issue came, as it
did come, and its existence duly an
nounced as being between " Lincolnite"
(Fleming) and confederate (Caldwell)
Fleming stock went down and Caldwell
stock went up. So in the State Conven-
tion-so in almost every Democratic con-
vention that has been held.
This is the road to preferment in the
Democratic party. In the recent race for
Supreme Judge, we heard Cooks claims
urged on the ground that he had been a
better rebel than Mcfarland, but a great
many did not believe it and cited and COM
pared the two records to prove the con-
trary.
Actions speak louder than words, and
the acts of the Democratic party in Ten
nessee are to be taken as an exposition of
what they mean by shaking hands across
the bloody chasm.n

PETER CARTWRIGHT.

Our dispatches on Friday told of the
death of one of the most remarkable men
of the present century. Rev Peter Cart
wright, the great pioneer preacher of the
West, died in Sangamon county, Illinois,
at the advanced age of eighty-seven years.
He entered the ministry in his eighteenth
year rs q Methodist circuit rider, in the
then unsettled forests of Kentucky, and
has continued in the work ever since. BY
virtue of his vigorous intellect and great
personal energy, he at once became pop
ular and powerful preacher, and thousands
upon thousands were converted under his
ministration, He was an active and sue
cessful minister in the days of Asbury and
has travelled many hundreds of miles in
the wilderness with that great Apostle OF
American Methodism-always enjoying
his full confidence and esteem. He was
eminently fitted for carrying the "glad
tidings of salvation to the wilderness,
his ZEAL ability, and courage all being of
such character as to enable him to sur
mount obstacles and overcome hardships,
such as seemed insurmountable to ordina--
ry men. His courage, both moral and
physical, was developed in high degree.
He never shrank from what he conceived
to be duty, and woe be unto the man who,
as was common in those days, under
took to drive him from the path of duty,
He was man of muscular as well as,
mental and spiritual power, and he hest
tated not to use the one when necessity
seemed to require it as well as the other.
1t has been q source of great gratifica-
ton to him and to his thousands of friends,
that he has been spared much of the in
firmaties attending old age, his zeal re-
manning unsubdued and his eye undih1-
med until short time before his death. He
has never ceased to be an active worker in
his Masters vineyard.
Where he first reared his cabin in the
Wild West, smiling farms, tasteful man
sions, populous cities, splendid churches,
and every other result of civilization now
greets the eye. Streams that he used to
swim across on horse back, or ferry in bark
canoes, are now plowed by stately vessels
carrying the commerce of the rich and
populous States of the great Northwest,
The Church of which he has been an ac-
ceptable and successful minister, has
grown from few thousand. until its min
listers now proclaim the gospel to millions.
a million of hearts are sad to-day, at the
death of Peter Cartwright, the great "back-
woods preacher

MR.. ALFRED CALDWELL, the regular
simon-pure, military ring Democratic can
didate for Congress in this district, is in
the habit ofcharging that men have been
placed in position on the Supreme Bench
of the United States, to perform duties as
signed them as politicians, and not as high
judicial officers. We are surprised to hear
a man of his sense repeating false charge,
long since exploded. For his satisfaction
we deny the charge and defy him or any
of his friends to produce the proof.

THE CANVASS IN EAST TENNESSEE

Since the canvass for Congress for the
State at large has commenced in upper
East Tennessee, the friends of Gen. Cheat
ham are much encouraged at the strides
he is making in popular favor. They claim
that Mr.. Johnson has been losing votes
from Bristol down to Jonesboro', and that
the great Commoner's" speech at the
latter point on Wednesday cost him sever
al hundred votes. His denunciation of his
competitors for their opposition to his
course in the Senate-saying that Mr..
Maynard opposed him in the halls of Con-
gress and Gen. Cheatham opposed him on
the battle field-strikes responsive chord
in but few hearts, the Union men being
satisfied with Mr.. Maynards patriotic
course during and since the war; and the
ex-confederates disliking to have contume-
ly heaped upon them for offences they
have long since been pardoned for commit
ting. Between the two stools the great
constitutional expounder may yet fall to
the ground.
Mr.. Maynard's speech was a mastery
effort and was so admitted by his oppo-
nents. He showed up Mr.. johnson for
his inconsistency in wishing the support
of the men whom in 1864, he wished pun
ished and their treason made odious. An
dy is said to be hopping mad" and the
probabilities are that he will have his
feathers still further ruffied before the
canvass is over.

Mr.. GREELEY's "big souln swelled with
honest indignation at the bare idea of SOL
diers and sailors meeting in Pittsburgh,
and expressing their desire to see their late
commander-in-chief, reelected President
of the United States. He was so mad that
he forgot his proverbial love for truth and
made this statement:
The City of Pittsburgh has recently witnessed
a rehearsal Of the pomp and pageantry, the bla-
zonry and circumstance of civil war. very
large number of men were collected here at a
vast expense, with the single purpose of re-
kindlng the bitterness and hatred, the animos-
tiles and antipathies the fears and Civilizations
of civil for the advantage Of political party
To show just how much truth there is in
the poor old office hunters declaration, we
copy one of the resolutions adopted by the
soldiers and sailors there:
We cherish no spirit o. revenge toward our
fellow-citizens of the South. The magnanim.
ity of our late Commander-in-chief on the Fl cid
of Appomattox was sufficient pledge of the
Union Army that the .''bloody chasm' of the
war was closed, and with malice toward none,
but with charity TO al" we extend the right
hand of fellowship to all those who accept in
good faith the results of the war, and who will
extend to every American citizen, of whatever
race or color the rights which are solemnly
guaranteed by the Constitution of the United
States and the laws made in pursuance thereof:
Take ibis Presidential aspirations out of
his head and he .is'a kind-hearted old gen.
tleman, but now he hates everybody that
is for Grant.

NATIONAL CAMP MEETING.

Though we do not publish religious
paper, our columns will always be found
on the side of religion and morality So
marked an occasion as that of the Nation
al Camp Meeting under the auspices of the
NJ. E. Church, demands notice beyond the
reports we have given of the daily pro-
ceedings. Although instituted and car
ried on by single denomination, the SER
vices have been singularly free from any
thing like q sectarian character.
Starting with single idea-that of rails.
ing the people to the consideration of q
true spiritual life, and helping them on to
the realization of holiness-that perfection
set forth by the Saviour, in his "sermon
on the mount" as the great ideal toward
which he would have his disciples con-
stantly press, the leaders of this con-
vention have been true to their idea, and
prosecuted it with marked success. So we
judge from what we have seen and heard
of the influence of their meeting.
That they have excited an interest in
the theme that has been presented is be-
yond dispute; and this interest is mani
tested more by spirit of enquiry concern
ing the spiritual nature, and law of the
souls life-the capacity of man to attain
to condition of holiness-than by dispu-
tation or argument upon mere dogma or
points of theology and sectarian metaphys-
les, that serve, as we all know but too well,
to divide and separate Christians from
each other, instead of drawing them to-
gether in a bond of spiritual union.
We feel grateful to any whose efforts
serve to break down the walls of sectarists,
and bring those who speak the name of
Christ of every denomination together in
spiritual accord and in united effort to ad-
vance the higher life of the soul.
we understand that the reverend gentle
men who have the direction of this move
ment have determined to "pitch their
tents" in other places in the South, where
we trust they will be as successful in turn
ing the course of religious thought and
spirit into good channel as we believe
they have effected in Knoxville.

TO OUR FRINDs g.,

We offer elsewhere some magnificent
premiums for the largest and second largest
club of subscribers to the WEEKLY
CHRONICLE. This is a good chance for
our friends to aid us in circulating the
CHRONICLE, and at the same time, to pay
themselves lib erHy for their work. Every
family ought to have a good sewing ma
chine and every farmer wants a superior
pillow. Our agents can earn three dollars a

very liberal premiums.
The CHRONICLE ought to be in every

THE DISCUSSION YESTERDAY.

Republicans feel proud of their candi-
date. Mr.. Maynard met the fullest expec-
tation of his most sanguine friends yester-
day and proves more than a match for
the " Great Commoner." His speeches are
full of sound logic, brilliant oratory, plain
facts and unmistakable truth. No man
can say that he plays the demagogue. His
whole argument is based on the past his.
tory of the country and the soundest theo-
ries Of Government. He is a host within
himself, and before his mastery EXPOSE
tions, the fiimsy arguments of his compet-
itors sink into insignifcance. With all
Mr.. Johnsons shrewdness, experience and
ability, lie will not be able to I" pull the
wool'' over the peoples eyes and hide the
clear truths which Mr.. Maynard gives in
these discussions.

DEATH OF REV. PETER CARTWRIGHT, D. D

BY our night dispatches we receive the
intelligence of the death of Peter Cart
wright, D. D., one of the pioneers of Meth
odism in the West, who died at the adj
vanceG age, of eighty-seven years. Like
sheaf ripe for the harvest he has been
gathered to heavenly rest and passed
from the advocacy of the church militant
to enjoy blissful eternity in the bosom of
the church triumphant. The news of his
death, though not unexpected, will be re-
ceived with sorrow by thousands of Chris
tians throughout the length and breadth
of the country.
