NASHVILLE, July 12.-Judge Nelson,
in letter to the Banner, received to
day, declines the nomination of Presi-
Dental Elector of the State at large,
rendered him by the Liberal and Con-

action of the Democratic Convention,
at Baltimore, and urges all opponents
of Grant to cordially and cheerfully
unite in the support Of an honest and
capable citizen, whose success in sur
mounting the difficulties of poverty and
Obscurity, and whose entire career Of
fers an ample guarantee that he not
only possesses a high order of ability,
but kind and genial nature, and that
he would endeavor to administer the af-
fairs Of the government with the strict
est integrity as President, not Of party,
but Of a whole Union. A conference OF
the Liberal and Democratic State Exec
utive Committee to harmonic and co
operate IN the selection of an electoral

VERSAILLES, July 12.-Yhere was an
intensely exciting debate in the Assem-
bly, this evening on the proposal made
by DaslOnde to increase the taxes by
licenses on doors, windows, and house
hold furniture. Thiers accepted the
measure, and maintained that If ii was
not adopted he would be under the ne
cessity Of reverting to the tax ON raw
materials, from which ninety-three mil
lions Of the two hundred millions OF
francs required. The cup Is bitter, but
it must be drained TO the dregs without
fiinching. The members Of the Right
insisted on q more conservative policy.
Thiers replied that the government are
repairers, not authors, Of the revolution
that entrusted US with the republic. The
Right, with one voice, vociferated mo,
no.n and the Left gave three round
cheers for the President. After pro-
longed disorder and Interruption Of the
proceedings, Thiers again made himself
heard. and promised to explain his pol
lev at a later day. Quiet was then re-
stored, and the sitting closed in good
order. A government crisis is appre-
hended in consequence Of these mani
festatiOns.
