GIL TIMED AND AMBIGUOUS,

Under this heading the Rogersville Re
porter pays its respects, in an able editori-
al, to DR.. Sewers card. We extract the
following:
We regret that DR.. Sewer thought it nee
| essary to give his imagined wrongs a public
airing. In our humble opinion, there vas
no call for it. If he had been injured by de-
feat, and his just claims ignored, for the
| reason alleged, quiet submission and digni-
fed silent acquiescence in the result would
have been more profitable to his fame. The
public sense, which is quick to detect
wrong perpetrated and ready to vindicate
injured innocence, would have accorded
him greater honor for graceful bearing I'M
der defeat. If he were not beaten for the
Speakership, on the grounds charged,
then his explanation becomes an
exhibition Of wounded pride, and hurtful
to his reputation IS a man of excellent
judgment. Then, there was certainly s'no
use shivering for last years snow But,
aside from personal considerations, the ad-
dress, coming from such high and infuen-
tial source, is calculated to do mischief. Its
tendency is to keep alive the old war feeling,
to create III the minds of Conservative
Union men the belief that the Tennessee
DEMOCRACY utterly ignore and prescribe
them, and only tolerate them because their
votes are useful. We deprecate this. 1t is
not Conservative, it is not patriotic, it is not
true. Conservative Uni n men in the outset
split of from the Republican party
because they wished to forgive and forget
the past, ignore the passions and preiudiCes
of war, and eXteud amnesty to all acts of
rebellion. This was, and is, Conservatism.
This was DR.. Sewers political creed. His
last act is strangely inconsistent with it. 1t
is remembering instead Of forge ting the
record of war. 1t is drawing from the
ashes of the past the buried embers of Bit
terness aud strife. Neither is it patriotic.
To make the high considerations of public
policy and the imperative calls of duty sub
ordinate TO feeling and personal wrongs
even is not the dictate of a fervent love of
country. And last, it is not true that it
was and is the purpose of the 'srebel
element TO utterly ignore and repu-
date Conservative Union men as
an integral part of their political organiza-
ton" DR.. Sewer points to his defeat as
the evidence of the purpose. The Nashville |
UNION AND AMERICAN says that only six |
Of the eighteen members of the Senate |
were Confederates, and that these "alene |
at no time had the power to elect" Then |
certainly Mr.. Sewer was not defeated solely |
by rebels because. of his UniOnism.
As a Conservative Union man, we have
spoken thus at length to counteract, in our
own county, snY possible evil effect of this
njudicious address. We have faith in the
'Rebel element" We believe them too
and grateful to forget the services
If Union men who stood up for them when
o be their friends was to peril their lives.
Wen abide with them.

our WEEKLY EXCHANGES.

A number ofour weekly exchanges man
ifest considerable indignation because we
have felt compelled to discontinue the Civ
ing of copy of our daily in exchange for a
weekly. This we regret, for we are not in
different to the good viii of our confrereS.
We have adopted the course which we now
pursue in obedience TO the abso-
lutte demands Of justice to ourselves,
without injustice TO others. We cannot
see why we should be required to pay more
in cash for our weekly exchanges than they
ask of any of their subscribers. A copy Of
our daily for a year costs us twice as much
in cash as the subscription price of any
weekly in the State. 1t is urged that we
get the difference in price in the advertise
ments given us by the credited extracts
from our columns. But do we not repay
this by credited extracts from their columns?
We are unable to see any justice in the de-
mand that we should give over twenty one
thousand copies of our daily inexchange for
less than four thousand copies Of our weekly
exchanges.

HONESTY ATA Discount.

Facts like the following would be most
discouraging in the discharge Of ones duty,
if it were not that a good conscience was
sometimes fair offset for the wrong receiy-
ed in the discharge of ones duty. The two
Treasury Clerks who peached on Grant
about his Indebtedness to the government,
it seems, have come to grief A Washing
ton letter says:
''The two clerks, Hunt and Green, of the
Third Auditors office, who were so iRdiS-
Greet as to disclose the fact that the records
IN their division showed the President to be
in arrears to the United States in the sum
of $1,000, andthe Third Auditor $500, have
paid the penalty for telling family secrets.
They have been summoned before the GOV
eminent executioner, and informed that they
'had no right to know anything outside Of
their official duties, therefore the govern
ment could dispense with their services
The Third Auditor is a New Hampshire
''Tpet-bagger, but appointed from North
ClrOlina. He has re funded and so has The
PRESIDENT. Let us have peace

THE AGRICULTURAL BUREAU,

The act establishing "a Bureau of Agri,
culture" provides that the commissioners ap-
pointed by the Governor 'shaH meetin the
capitol at Nashville on the fourth Wednes.
day following the day of their appointment,
o, as soon thereafter as practicable, and
then and there organize a Bureau of Agri-
culture by the election of one of their num-
Der President and another Secretary" The
fourth Wednesday "after their appoint
menL" is Wednesday the 2Sth instant.
Our attention has been called to this sub
ject by Mr.. Tom. Crutchfeld Of Chatta-
noOga, who is one of the Commissioners
appointed by the Governor. The others
are Messrs. Hunter Nicholson, Knoxville;
W. II. Jackson, Nashville; J. 3. KiIlebrew,
GAINESVILLE; R. B. Hurt, Jackson, and A. B.
Haynes, Whites Station.
1t being suggeste6to Us that it would be
impracticable for the Board to organize on
Wednesday the 2Sth, we by request Of some
Of the Commissioners state that the first
meeting will be held on Wednesday the
18th Of March at the Capitol in this city,
when it is desirable that there should be
full attendance of the Board. The Legis-
latue meets in extra session on Tuesday
the 18th of March.

GRANT AND THE WHISKY RING

SNeANA ANU hESkh II HINGi.
The New York SIN publishes letter
from Baltimore, and supplements it with a
double-leaded editorial, with reference to
the famous, or rather infamous, Baltimore
Whisky Ring, containing startling reveal
tons of corruption in which some Of the
highest officers Of the administration are
mplicated-including notably Postmaster
General Creswen and Senator Cameron.
The Sun says:
"The impuRity with which certain dis
tillers in Baltimore have been allowed TO de-
fraud the Government has long been nOtO-
riOUs, and the gains Of the Ring have been
computed at millions of dollars. The wen
der which such state of affairs would nat
urally excite ceases, however, when we find
no less a parsonage than Postmaster Gene
raj }. A. j. Creswell writing.to one Of the
conspirators to rob the Treasury, autbOriZ-
ing him to tell the other members of the
Ring whom he deSignates as sour friends
that he has thrown his personal and politi-
cal influence against a measure intended t
