COUNTY COmmITTEEs.

We regret to hear complaint Of the inef-
fcicncy of some few of the county COM
mittees, ard in one or two cases fears ex-
pressed that they are being used to sub
serve personal projects. Where persons
have been appointed who cannot give a
sufliciency of their time to the work Of the
committee necessary to secure thorough
and efficient organization, they should with
draw from the committee and allow Others
TO take their places who have both the time
and the disposition TO labor in the cause.
1t is presumed that every committeeman
will bear in mind that the personal feature
of Grants Administration is one which has
aided greatly to make it SO obnoxious
10 the American people. Every committee
man should remember that the Democracy
are striving not for the advancement Of par
ticular individuals, but for the good of the
whole peonle.

BE Up AND DOING.

From all parts of the State we learn that
the adherents of President Grant are ex-
ceedingly active. Already they have begun
20 hold their public meetings. BY Radi-
ca ,rrespondent of a Radical paper We
are told that ''the grand Republican rally"
at cambridge, East Tennessee, Aug. 8,
was Zone Of the greatest events of the past
ten years. No such meeting has been held
in East Tennessee since the war" "a
large procession, with banners and music,
escorted the orators Of the day." "The
streets Of the city were gAily decorated with
flags and crowded with hundreds of the
good, honest Union people Of Jeiftrson,
and large delegations from Cooke, Sewer
and Granger. It was a scene reminding
us of the enthusiastic meetings of better
days" "Hon. Horace Maynard, fully
aroused, made a speech over three hours
long, which We 1.-THE correspondent pro-
nounce the ablest most vigorous and elo-
Quent speech we ever heard him make"
Speeches. were also made by Judge Houk and
others. The Radicals are preparing to have
other "grand Republican" rallies. They have
invited Wilson, Ben. Butler, Morton, Lo-
gan, Nesley, Minty, Langston, Fred. Doug
lass, and Lynch from other states TO come to
Tennessee in behalf Of the present corrupt
and unrepubIicsn administration.
Democrats, you see what the Grant of.
fee holders are doing to retain their places.
Are you ready for the contest Are you
selecting your ablest and best men to carry
the banner of Peace, Good viii and Con-
stitutional Government Are your speak
ers prepared with facts, figures and docu-
ments TO establish the charges which can
be easily sustained and which should con-
sign this administration TO an eternity of
infamy? Be no: deceived. Do not for
moment believe that even Tennessee can
without concord aud labor be carried
agai lst the GRAFT party with It's organiza-
ton aud with its numerous officials in
every county, whose untiring energy is in
creased by the fact that their daily bread
depends upon their success. Democrats,

Among the prominent men of Cornwall,
Conn, says the Bridgeport Former, who
fave declared for the Cincinnati ticket,
are John T. Andrew, r. r. Pratt, HeAry c.
Crandall, and Orville Fitch. At the last
Presidential election the Democrats had
six majority in that town, but in Novem-
Der we are promised $50 majority for Gree
ley and Brown.
Thomas G. Alvord, six times elected to
The Assembly from Syracuse, New York,
three times the Speaker of the Assembly,
the Republican Lieutenant Governor of the
State in 1865 and 1856, chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee in the last
Assembly, aud one of the candidates for
Speaker, also one OF the most influential
Republicans in Onondaga county, and now
one of the impeachment managers in the
Barnard trial, has declared his intention to
support Greeley and Brown.
Gel Charles d. Kerr, of st. Cloud Min
nesota, formerly of the Sixteenth Illinois
volunteers, writes: "We have Just started
Greeley club here among the Liberal Re-
publicans headed by my name. Nearly
fifty sound, .stauneh Republicans have join
ed it already, and many more will do SO.
Things are indeed working all right, and
the prospects look fair for defeat of COR
ruption and selfish ambition. We win
come pretty near equally dividing the Re
publican vote in this town. If the rest of
the country does half as well, Greeley is
| elected sure" ~ f.-.-
The following is an extract from letter
from an ex-Secretary of the State of Rhode
Island, dated Providence: "The camp fires
are burning brightly, and we expect the
State will go for Greeley and Brown. The
! Liberal Republicans are organizing in every
| town in the State, and both conventions
are called for the same day, and the electo-
raj ticket will probably divided equally be-
| tween the two parties. The campaign, so
far, reminds me more of 1910 than any one
l have passed through for many years.
There are great many changes from Grant
to Greeley" - .-.f

DURING his recent visit to Bristol, Rhode
Island, and while out driving, Mr.. Greeley
was met by Mr.. John Bullock, who had
walked out to the road to see him. The
correspc ndent Of the New York Sun refers

"Uncle John is one hundred and four
years Of age, and had walked out to see the
next President. lie is in possession of all
his faculties, and thus addressed the Sun
correspondent: Every candidate for Pre-
sident who ever come to Bristol has been

ton came here nigh en- to eighty years ago,
and know heaps of 'em who came here,
and were always elected sure; and l tell

AT the close Of tie impeachment trial of
president johnson, the New York Times
spoke of Senator Trumbull as follows: ain
standing so grandly and unfinchingly for
the highest moral principles, under the most
adverse influences, he has given us new
reason for believing in republican institu-
tious, and new ground for faith in human
virtue" Now it speaks of him as an 'santi-
impeachment apostate." This last because
he will not support Grant.

HARDWARE.

FOR SALE AT COST.
A Rare Opportunity offered
to any one desiring to go
into the Hardware
Business,

TIHE COPARTN ERSHIP BETWEEN THE
Il undersigned having expired by limitation, we
have de. ermined to close our business, and now
offer our entire Stock of Hardware, which is
very complete in every Department, both in
light and heavy articles, selected and bought for
this trade, at the low prices that ruled before
the recent advances in Hardware. This stock
cost at least from 20 to 80 per cent below what
the class of goods can now be imported or pur-
chased from manufacturers for. Our location is
one of the best in the city, No. % Broad street
an old established Hardware HOuse, and the on
ly one ON the street. 1t has large, well estab-
lished and lucrative trade.
Our desire is to sell the entire Stock, with the
privileges of the location, to party desiring to
20 into the Hardware Business in Nashville, and
our terms are so low that no better opportunity
can be offered to purchase and continue safe
and profitable business.
Pending this announcement, we viii sen from
this date at cost for cash to Country Mer-
chants who desire to renaw their Stocks of Hard
ware, to Builders, Carpenters, Biacksmiths and
all others wanting anything in the Hardware
line. Having determined to close our business
at once, and meaning what we say by selling at
cost Tor Cash, purchasers VIII nhu ~ SiSd1iy W
their interest to give US a call without delay.
Our Stock being purchased at prices greatly be-
low the present advanced rates, this is an oppOr-
tunity seldom offered for buying cheap Hard
ware.
We would say to our old friends and patrons
that our wish to close our business at once,
makes it necessary that those indebted to us
should come forward and settle immediately.
We have no disposition to collect our dues by
law, and should regret to have to place accounts
in the hands of an officer for collection, but will
be compelled to do so unless settlements are
made at once. We trust this notice will be suti-
cient, as we mean that our business must be
closed at once.
