FOR

The article was approved because the
true qualifications were defined as re-
quired in the next representative from
this district. Do not understand me TO
assert that these requirements are not
found in an eminentd degree in the gem
tleman mentioned, but it is so little i'm

suitable for Congress, provided a man
with proper qualifications is found, that

the community the fact that the times

nerve and of integrity; one who is
competent to appreciate the great wants
of this district, and especially of this
city, and who will be able to secure us
some of the benefits of the general gov
eminent; a man who understands the

man of large experience, sound judg-

more acceptable to the masses Of OurpeO-

Andrew johnson once said of a North
ern orator that he ha6 little faith in a
Northern man who loved the South
more, and was more sensitive to wrong
done to Southern rights and honor than
a native Southerner. Seven years of
Radical despotism, and of Democratic
and Radical collisions, each conflict
crushing the South to powder, have re-
vived the memory of this apothegm,
full of wisdom and justice, whatever
may be the readers estimate of John
worth. If the South be satisfied
accept Greeley, and the South and its
political fortunes be mainly involved in
the pending contest, why may not the
North admit that we are as good friends
of ourselves as they, Of the South. There

WHAT A TENNESSEE cONGRESsmAN
SAVE AND SAYS.

When Nh. Garrett, NJ. G. from Ten
nessee, was in Cincinnati during the
session ef the Convention, be had little
confidence in the Greeley movement.
He was afterward at his home In Mid
die Tennessee, and attended the Demo-
cratic Convention at Nashville. He
has returned to Washington, and finds
that one state Of facts prevails in
Washington and another in the South.
he says that he I'VE saw so much en-
thusiasm in his State for any candidate
Of any party as has been shown for
Horace Greeley and the Cincinnati
movement. The people Of Tennessee
did not agree with Mr.. Greeley before or
during the war, but throughout all of
those old controversies the Southern
people never lost their respect for him
nor their belief that he was always ac-
tuated by an honest purpose to do what
he believed to be right. Since the war.
they say, his course has been liberal and
just Their great desire is 10 forget sec
tional differences, and unite with
the North in good faith to build
up the industries of the whole nation.
They think that they can evince the
sincerity Of this desire in no better way
than by supporting Mr.. Greeley, under
whose administration as President they
expect TO have an honest government
administered for the good Of the people,
and not in the interest Of partisan pol
icy. Mr.. Garrett says that this almost

We referred editorially some days ago

of commercial power made by the St.
Louis Packet Company. 1t becomes on
Western rivers precisely what Tom
Scott's railway absorbing Security Com
pany is upon land. It maintains packet
lines where weaker corporations could
not, and by cooperation of all parts of
a grand system, each branch line is
made strong and self-sustaining. Very
certainly the cOuntry's wealth and West

by the magnificent conceptions and

combination of steamboat owners. 1t

is not the result OF the management OF
tbe politicians OF the State, but in spite
81 them. The party leaders were at first
disappointed with the action of the Gin
einnati Convention, but the spontaneous
popular win was 50 strong that the few
who have opposed giving it an unquali-
fed approval have been left in a hopeless
minority. Mr.. Garrett passed through
Kentucky on his way 70 Washington.
He found the Greeley ticket wen re-
ceivedin that State, but nOtsO enthusiast
ically as in Tennessee. He has no doubt,
however, that Kentucky win support it
If it is ratified by the National Conven-
ton. he thinks that most of the South
ern States viii support Greeley in any
event, even though the Baltimore Com
vention should make an independent
nomination. Other Southern Demo
Gratis say that their people are tired and
sick Of being controlled by the old
bunker Democracy of the North To
the illiberal course Of some Of these men
they ascribe many Of their woes. Hunk
erism in the North, they say, has made
Radicalism, such as has shown itself
most Extensively in the United States
Senate this session, possible. 1t may be
fun for the Northern Democrats, who
have majorities in their districts, but it
has been death for the South, left to it.
self. These men say the South would
have accepted the situation at the close
Of the war, and have escaped much Of
the misery they have suffered; but
the Northern Democracy dictated to the
party its policy, and by its refusal to ac-
cept the results Of the war, drove the
Republican majority in Congress to one
act after another, the whole burden of
which fell upon the South. The reason
ing Of these people is thought by many
to be very plausible. One thing is GER
tain; there is a general disposition to
accept everything that has been done,
and to begin anew under brighter nus
pices. The Northern Democracy be-
trayed the Southern, when the new de-
parture was incorporated into the creed
of the party, and 10 the South would
itself at any sacrifice, andaccept
Greeley 10 escape the thraldom Of des-
pOtism.
