'Frce Schools, Inmi grafton, Better Roads

Thus you conclude an editorial of yes
terday morning written with reference 10
the supposed complexion of the incoming
Legislature, being composed of "Republi-
cans and Independents" You seem to
think that successful efforts will be made
to have free schools, immigration, better
roads, and legislation liberal and progress
sive enough to make Tennessee what ma
ture intended she should he, the Empire
State of the South.
Your correspondent ardently hopes that
such may be the result Up 10 the pres
| ent time but little has been done in this
direction, whether attributable To the SUI
/ pineness of the party in power or TO other
causes, is the question. The Democratic
party has never been liberal and progress
sive, unfortunately. IU has chung TO dead
issues and fostered ideas as old as the ev-
erlasting hills. For this reason it has been
! utterly unable to comprehend the fact that
the world is moving, and that high de-
gree of energy ana enterprise are now
needed TO keep along with the stirring
times in which we live.
in common with you and others, l am
now exceedingly hopeful as TO the future
results in our State, The upheavel which
we have had in Tennessee politics, throw
ing overheard an absolute and fossilizeC
class of men and bringing to the surface
more active and wide-awake class, can no
fail, as think, 10 place our material in
terests upon high ground, Especially viii
this be 50, if partisan politics are left out 0
the question, a point that our representa-
tives should keep steadily in view. W.
have had "a surfeit of politics.
For the honor of our State let somethin,
be done towards the organization of a com
, prehensiVe school system, the Inaugural
tion ofactive measures looking to the flood
ing Of our State with a thrifty ia industri
Gus population and taking such steps a
( will lead TO the improvement of our publ
, roads. bROGRESS,

SEWER COUNTY.

TRUNDLE's Y ROADS, Nov. ), 1872.
EDS. CHRONICLE: Our election passed
Off quietly to-day. a larger vote was poll
ed than is usual for this district. being ll2.
Ninth district, Grant, 107 Greeley, , /;
Freeman, 100; Brown, 81 johnson. : !;
Maynard, 1O5 Thornburgh, 100; Cald-
well, ); Mcconnell, los. No other district
heard from. Allow me to say that Mr..
Kicks is credited with having made the
most able vindication of the President and
of Republican principles in his speech of
Monday, that has been the good fortune of
the citizens of Sewer to hear in many a
day. We believe our county will give
Maynard and Thornburgh each l ,200votes.
Grants, Maynard's and Thornburgh's
votes will reach 1000 TO 200 with 100
against them. Sevierville gave Grant so,
Greeley 81. Mcconnell is elected to the
Senate almost without opposition. Rea-
gan is probably elected Representative
from Cooke and Sewer.

GOING WEST.
How the Democracy Embarked for Salt
River.


Pursuant to n secret circular issued from
the office of the "big organn crowd of
gloomy individuals gathered on the banks
of the Holston late last night to embark
up Salt river. Usually, such crowds,
though sad, go harmoniously and offering
mutual consolation, but last night we
think if the Democratic EXchequer had
permitted it, two boats would have been
furnished the quarreling half famished
disheartened crowd, for the Cheathamites
and Johnsonites were cursing each other
deep and loud.
HOW THEY EMBARKED.
When they got ready to embark the
question was raised who should take the
bow of the boat, Crozier said that this
Andy johnson boiling wing should go in
first. They had played thunder with the
party and ought to go in first. Col. John
Williams said as far as that was concerned
he didn't much care. The Union men al
ways had to lead when there was work to
be done or danger threatened and he guessed
they could do so again. He had with him
copy of the "constitut on" and an
American flag" TWAS supposed he had
this for Andy, as he prayed during the
canvass that he hoped when he died to be
buried with the revered instrument of the
fathers and the starry emblem ofthe nation.
Col. John said he was willing to take the
post of danger, but he didn'twa the bow
of the boat, so he proposed to put Fleming
there, as he was pilot at the helm of the
"big organ to guide the people. The edi-
tor accepted the post. At this point several
Cheatham men spoke up and said that as a
guide" he wasn't worth cent. They
had no objections TO his being put at the
bow for figure head, but they
wanted one of the "old guard" at the
helm, to steer the craft. The "big organ
was lightning on the straight ticket" in
August but it never could he trusted again.
If its editor took the bow he might get salt
water enough sprinkled on him to keep
him, but if not he would go off again first
chance. They agreed, too, that he would
have to go up the river to the highest
point with Andy johnson, Colyar, Baxter
and the Banner and avalanche. The iu.
Nor editor of the "big organ was there
with smile "childlike and bland" and
with his

1t contained white hat and coat, all
that is left of Greeley.
Several of the leaders proposed staying
to watch the radicals for fear they
would divide the farms and mules with the
"niggers," but Mabry said sam. Wins
was at his Post at Athens and he was
shrewd enough TO swap the colored folks
out of their farms and mules and save the
nation.
Just about the time the craft was TO sail
somebody rolled several barrels of some
thing into the boat that looked to to us
nightly like apple jack, but they ali in
sisted it was coal oil. A Greeley man said it
was rum" Greeley said they all loved
it, and he was right. so they started for
Salt river. We expect TO hear further FROM

The Little Giant" ThOrnburpb had
driven him over the mountains on the
Gouble quick and he was the worse for the
service. He had in his pocket a petition
TO have the district changed. He said he
was like Horace Greeley, firmly persuaded
that running for Office was not his forte, and
though he never expected the district to
trube him again, he never wanted anoth-
er Democrat butted with that " Hattering
