grateful to the electors OF Paris or Lyons,
who have almost all been educated by the
Christian Brothers-what makes you so
harsh towards the priests, who perhaps,
have helped not n little Your own early
education-and why are you so unjust to
the Church It is my duty to insist on
this point, and to protest against your
calumnies. After the clergy of France
have devoted themselves, as they have
done, to the service of our soldiers and
prisoners for months, after our almoners
and Brothers of the Christian Schools being
shot dead on the field of battle, after our
religious have devoted themselves to your
ambulances, it is now yon take heart to tell
US that we are no longer Frenchmen And
it is on the very morrow of the massacre of
the hostages that you repeat these calum-
MES, that you represent us as constituting
for modern society I" the greatest of dam
gers"-these are your words-thus expos
ing us again to the blind fury of the mob.
And it is not only us you calumniate, you
do not spare the Pope himself. All, ad-
NIT, the trials, the treasons, the treacheries
and the lies to which he has been subjected
for the last twenty five years have not rem
dered him very sensible to the charms of
that liberty which you promise to US and
he may be permitted not to admire that in
famous Garibaldi, to whom, probably, you
sacrificed the Army of the East. But even
in the Encyclical, which your audience has
not read, the Pope has never condemned
the different forms of government inscribed
in the laws of different nations. He has
only condemned liberty without control,
rights without duties, and societies with
out God. With regard to the rights of
family and property, 1t ill becomes you and
your friends to call yourselves their virtu-
GUS defenders.
But what strikes me as most remarkable
in this higgledy -piggledy of confused and
| ;,cobarant ideaa ia the reason for which Won
| would inhibit the French clergy from a
right common to all Frenchmen-that OF
teaching, when you would call upon the
energy of men educated by such masters,
when Won would excite in their minds feel
ings of self sacrifice, of devotion. and OF

The Sovereign People Rally TO Hear the
Speaking.

On yesterday, Hon. Horace Maynard, eI-
President johnson and Gen. Cheathsm, candi-
dates for Congress-at-Large addressed the citi-
IONS of Hamblen and adjoining counties at
Morristown, on the political issues of tho day,
and also took retrospective and prophetic view
Of the past and future.
From early morn till the hour for the speaking
to commemorative people came in crowds to
hear the oft-told tale of constitutional liberty
and popular rights as promulgated by their re-
spective favortes. There were Johnson's sup
porters, massive in their strength as the ancient
Macedonian phaanx, marching sturdily to the
hastings, and anon the veterans of Chestham,
who, though indefinitely furloughed, yet rally
at his war cry, while the braves of the Nara
gsnset chieftsin, victorious on many we'll
tried field and with the trophies of past
quests and the recolections of their triumphs,
gathered in stern array in behalf of their true
and chosen leader.
Eleven O. clock was the hour announced for
opening the discussion and by that time large
crowd, upwards of othoussnd in number had
assembled, when the candidates made their APP
pearance on the stand.

A few weeks ago the Chief of Police of this
city received the following dispatch:
CoLLIERsvILLE, Tenn, Aug. 81, 1872.
Chief of Police: Arrest negro by the name
of George Tunley, about 8 feet high. heavy set
black, fine spoken, and about % years old. He
stole 81, 900. A liberal reward is offered. Tee

The above facts were communicated to Z fof
the police force here who at once watched out
for their man, A colored man, coming up to
the above description, arrived at this place
about that time, and was noticed to handle
money rather freely, investing large sums at
different places without any regard as to wheth-
or he would reap any benefit therefrom. He
went into a partnership business with some one
else in little peanut store on Gay street, in
vesting 800, besides giving a $50 bill in some
woman hand to put it in the bank, in fact inf
vesting money in every part of the town with
out any regard as to its value. As matter
course, such q wilful waste of the precious
stuff could not be kept dark from our vigi-
liant police, who were looking for just such
character, and, consequently on Wednesday
night, enough evidence having come to light to
warrant the arrest, he was taken in charge by
one of the force and confined in the calaboOse
Yesterday Mr.. j. NJ. Turner was notified of his
arrest and the following dispatch was received.

Have it Always on Hand.

Accidents will happen in the best regulated
families, and for this reason among many
others the Mustang Liniment should find a
place in the cupboard of every household. In
all the world there is nothing comparable to it
as an application for cuts, Commissions, burns,
paration that medical ingenuity can suggest, has
failed to afford relief in rheumatism, neuralgia,
soar throat, glandular swellngs, muscular con-
fractions, cramps, toothache &c, this powerful
anti-infsmmstory and pain destroying agent
Immediately assuages the sufferers agony and
eventually accomplishes radical cure. Prob
ably there is not o connoiseur in horse flesh or
an amateur horseman in the land who does not
know, either from personal observation or re-
ports, that the Mustang Liniment is the su-
preDle remedy for all external diseases and in
juries of the horse.

ihe Cincinnati Southern Road.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Times and Chronicle takes the following
view Of the Cincinnati Southern Road.
Probably the greatest Importance attach
ing to Chattanooga arises from the fact
that your Southern road is looking hither
for one of its southern termini. / say one
of its southern termini, for / am satisfied
that it will have more than one such and
that the very necessity of the case will
compel Cincinnati to seek more direct
connection with Knoxville than will be af-
forded by way of Chattanooga. Indeed,
from such facts as I am advised of, am
inclined to think the prediction a safe one,
that Cincinnati and Knoxville will be di-
rectly connected by rail sooner than this
city and Cincinnati will. Perhaps in a
letter from Knoxville, if get hold there of
the man hope to see, / shall be able to
furnish some of these relevant facts, stated
in more difinte shape than 1 could now
put them in.

Quares' position in the JohnsonCheat-
ham canvass as follows:
1t would appear that Gen. Quarles, who
is put forward as an elector for the Liberal
Republican ticket of reconciliation, through
some sort of influence, has been induced to
abandon the contest between Greeley and
Grant, to become the elector of the Con-
gressional ring and a Congressional caucus,
to crack the whip and put the spurs to all
the rank and file who dare to disregard the
edcts of the ring. He abandons the Gree

who was arrested at Dalton the other day, was

taken in charge by Sheriff Gossett who lodged
him safely in the Knoxville Jail to await his

the prisoner, he is thoroughly recognized by all
the parties robbed, and there can be no doubt as
to his indemnity.
