The convention which met at Phil
adelphia last week, nominated GRANT
and WILSON for the presidential tick
ct. The farce of going through with
a convention was entirely unneces-
sary, as it was generally known
months ago that the President was
busy packing the convention, with
bis obsequious friends, and those
who were under obligations to him
for official appointments. The
resolutions of the convention set
GRANT up as paragon of perfection
"a condensation of all political ex-
cellencies, and make the administra-
ton party one of immaculate purity
and answering patriotism. The
Only gratifying feature about the
nomination of GRANT is that the peo-
pie will not have to lose time in max
ing inquiries about him. They all
know him. -Four years ago many
were deluded with the siren words
'1et us have peace" They know that
his denomination means renewed and
unrelenting war upon the South and
a perpetuation of sectional hate, an
archy and political strife, instead Of
peace, order and fraternal and ma.
tional feeling. They know, too, Of
/ his nepotism, gold specializing and
gift-taking propensities, and of his
election manipulatiops.

very tersely and gracefully express

to become a candidate for Congress
for the State at large, has been receiv-
ed and considered. Approaching the
RESPONSIBILITIES and demands of a
position so important, it is not with
out diffidence that / would accede to
your request under any circumstan-
ces. But since your call i am in
formed that my personal friend and
former commander, General ID. +.
CHEATHAM, is a candidate for that
office. L have entered the field too
often with him to now take it against
him. | am, therefore, constrained to
decline becoming candidate. New

sincerely thank you for, this valued
evidence Of your regard and gener-
Gus expression of your confidence.

HoN. ID. i THOMAS is a candidate
for Congress from the seventh dis
trict of this State, at the ensuing
election. Mr. THOMAS is a good man
and will make representative Tor
the people of whom they may justly
be proud. lie is eminently qualified
for the place, and possesses all the
requisites TO adorn The position.
With ability of high order, he
unites the sterling qualities OF pa
triotic devotion TO the best interests
of the people.
To few are the people of Tennes-
see more indebted for their deliver
ance from the despotism of Radical
oppression and misrule than TO this
bold and fearless champion of their
most sacred rights. He was among
the first public men in this State to
raise his voice and wage fierce and
avengipg war against the 'yrannies
and despotisms that shackied and
oppressed our people. Calamity did
he make the fight and uncompromis-
ingly did hepush the contest, until
victory was achieved, and the free
men of Tennessee once more re-es-
tablished in the full and untrammcl-
cd exercise of their rights and privi-
leges. In 1863 and again in 1867 was
he trlumphantly elected TO Con-
press from the sixth district, of which
this county was then part, but an
inscriptions Executive and corrupt
Congress ignored his claims insult
ed the people who elected him, and
gave the place to his Radical oppo'
nent. The people now owe 1t 10 MI
THOMAS no less than TO themselves
TO elect him to Congress. Let II nf
done by a solid vote of the conserVa'
tives OF the seventh district. He VIII

sentative, aud be a ereditto the coun'

From the Springfield Republican.

1t is hardly too much to say that
Horace Greeley is as widely liked as
known. Those who laugh at him
ottenest and loudest generally have a
warm spot for him in their hearts.
Years have brought to him some
thing of the philosophic mind. He
has got out of the narrow rut of par
tisanship. And all the while that he
has been growing away from his old
enemies and prejudices and :'crot"h-
cts" he has been growing into the
respect and affection of his country
men. Mr.. Greeley's popularity is no
myth. He is as strong with the ex-
shareholders as with the eX-slaves !;
with the Irish laborers as with the
native born farmers who have never
voted a Democratic ticket in their
liyes. He may be beaten, but those
who fancy the job an easy one will one
of these days see cause to alter their
opinion. If the Philadelphia people
conclude to undertake this job, it be-
hooves them TO build stouter plat
form than they are now thinking Of,
and to find stronger man than Grant
to put ON it when built.

General LOngsIreeI's Position.

All uncertainty as to General
LoNGsTREET's position has been re-
moved. He gees back on his letter
written in March, in favor ofGRANT,
and comes out strong for GREELEY.
He says his letter urging the re-elec-
ton of GRANT was written under an
erroneous impression that he agreed
with him in politics, and was not re-
s,onsible for the conspiracy of the
Federal officials liz Louisiana TO sup
plant the State government subvert
the reconstruction laws and set up
new and unauthorized government.
GRANTS subsequent course, however
with reference to Louisiana affairs,
has, in Gen. LoNGsTREET's opinion,
drawn an impossible line between
them. Accordingly an interview
with Gen. LoNGsTREET is in the New
Orleans Republican, together with
copy Of the resignation forwarded to
Washington by the General when he
gave up his Office of surveyor ofcus-
toms at New Orleans. In his resig-
nation he put his decision on the
ground that he could not cooperate
with or approve the attempts of
prominent Federal officers TO break
down or interfere with the preroga-
lives of state, sunless it be by Lawful
measures and for the purpose of pro
tecting the state in republican form
Of government" In stating ID the re-
porter that he was for GREELEY, Gen.
Longstreet defined his position as thai
Of a Republican, in favor of state
ri shts and opposed to state sove-
rrignty, which, though confounded
fy many, were not synonymous but
clearly distinct. The one involves
tie rights of the states in the Union
and under the constitution as an es-
scs.;ial safeguard against centraiiza-
lion: the other, the right of the states
10 quit the Union and becoIde indie
pendent of the constitution. AS the
practical question now was, shall we
change our form Of government:
Gen. LoNGsTREEr believed that the
only way 10 hit the golden mean be-
tween contradiction and disintegra-
lion, was By supporting the Cincin-
nati platform aud ticket.
