ARREST OF A SUPPOSED HORSE THIEF
SO many horses have been stolen from our
own and neighboring counties during the
past year, that it has seemed as if q regular
ly organized band of horse. thieves were at
work here. Several times one particular in
dividual-G stranger has passed through
Bel Air, and close after him has come the
news Of u horse having been stolen. The de-
scription of the stolen horse has always cor
responded with that of the animal ridden or
driven by the stranger, traces of whom were
lost after leaving this place. On Friday this
same individual rode into Bel Air, and upon
being questioned by Mr.. S. r. Gilbert, made
cvasivc replies, but was allowed to proceed,
which he did rather hurriedly After he had
left Constable Pyle went in pursuit of him
and overlook at wilma. As soon rs the Off
Ger came up with him he asked ifhe had come
after him. He received m affirmative reply,
and was ordered to return to Bel Air After
proceeding a short distance in the direction
of this place, the man complained of being
cold, and was permitted to dismount and
walk, Mr. Pyle leading his horse by the bri-
die. Walking along briskly for a few mo-
ments. he requested to be allowed to get over
the fence and walk in the field To this the
officer also gave his consent. Thus they pro.
ceeded for short distance, the pedestrian di-
verging more and more from the fence, until
Mr.. Pyle told him he had gone far enough
and had better come closer to the fence The
man then started to run, but n pistol shot in
the air from the constable brought him TO a
stand. still, when he was ordered to come back
at once or he would he fired at After some
parlcying, he came to the conclusion that the
constable meant what he said and reluctant
ly returned. He was made to rcmount his
horse, and was lodged safely in Jail, upon n
commitment issued by Squire Snowdcn. He
gave his name as Frederick Gohm, is n Ger
man by birth, and about 35 or 40 years ofage.
The animal he rode is large black horse,
and is supposed TO have been stolen from Ian.

CHRISTMAS 8;2.-Chrstmas-th day so
eagerly looked forward to by young and old;
by the Christian for its halowed associations,
and by the lover of pleasure for its worldly
cnjoyments-has come and gone, and is now
numbered among the things that are never to
return. We can only hope, for our readers
one and all, that the day has left on their
minds a pleasant memory-an impression
the rudcr lines of which the finger of Time
may soften but which his touch can never
entirely erase.
The day in This place passed off very
of our streets and roads rendering travelling
Of any kind exceedingly unpleasant. Reli-
gious services were held at Emmanuel =. E.
Church, the stores were closed, and our cit-
day. OF course the Christmas turkey was
duly despatched in many household, and
the poor were not altogether forgotten, we
hope, in the midst of the profusion of good
cheer which crowned the day.

PAINFUL. ACCIDENT.-On Saturday last,
Mr.. Charles Sewell, with two young ladies,
of Abingdon, travelling in an open buggy,
on their way from Edgcwood to their home,
overlook and passed Il large wagon, descend
ing Monks HILL near the station. The driv.
er of the wagon before descending the hill
had, in addition to the lock, secured the
wheels by "a log chain, to check the speed of
the descent. Just after Mr. Sowell passed,
the chain broke, and the impetus of the
wagon caused the horses to start at rapid
rate down the hill. Before Mr. Sewell could
draw ont of the road, the lead horse of the
team struck one of the ladies, Miss Katie
Sewell, in the back with such force as to throw
her out of the buggy and into the branch
She was severely hurt, but was taken to her
home, where DR.. Polk rendered the necessary
professional aid. Although much better,
she is still suffering greatly.

The result of the election in this county
is the complete success Of the entire Radi-
cal ticket. Davidson county is the first to
elect one of our colored fellow citizens.
Sampson W. Keeble is a barber by trade.
He was formerly the slave of Hon. Edwin
A. Keeble, of Murfreesboro. He was in
the Confederate lines during the most of
the war. Since the war he has resided IN
this city, and has deported himself in
becoming manner for one Of his station.
Of the other representatives elect we have
Mr.. Ready, an Irishman, MFR. Jeup, Ger
man, and Mr.. Lindsley,a native Tennes-
seean. So that on this ticket we have
three nationalities and two races. If our
Legislature is intended to represent differ
ent nationalities or different races, then the
elected ticket is a decided success. If,
however, it is inten ded to represent the
interests of the whole people of the State
of Tennessee with all their varied aud i'm
portant interests without regard to race or
nationality, we are inclined to, believe that
the public judgment viii be that our Radi-
cal and 'independent" johnson opponents
could have improved upon their Ticket.

THE New York Times, for some days be
fore the election contained showers Of par
agraphs of this sort:
'sThe fight If next Tuesday is really a
f. ht for the Union. To be sure 1t is not
fought with shot ard shell, like Gettysburg
or Vicksburg. But that which is fought
Eor is so far The same, that the struggle be-
comes almost identical, Precisely the
same men yearn for the defeat Of General
Grant low who yesrned for his defeat il
the W1derI ess and at Five Forks"
The Cincinnati Commercial of the 4th
quotes the above, and remarks:
"There is just a little truth in this,
but the intention of the writer is to make
a. excitement in which the whole truth
will not be apparent, and to profit by the
obscurity. The fact is, that the most
sieadfast and vigorous supporters Of Gree
lev never were rebels aud never sympa-
thizpd with the rebellion. Andin addition,
all intelligent men know, that all 2ohO are
for Greeley have in the most formal, SOL
enln aud explicit mani er, acquiesced in the
results Of the war. The whole pretense
that the election of Horace Greeley to the
Presidency would cause a reaction toward
slavery and civil war, is utterly false. Gree
ley's good faith in preserving inviolate the
good works done in the war and in the pro-
cess of State reconstruction, coud be more
implicitly relied upon than even that Of
Grant,"

The Bonner takes the following view OF
the election of Grant in its leading editorial
yesterday:
President Grant is re. elected for another
four years. The public will, however,
come 10 look upon it as by 10 means the
calamity, the anybody to beat Grant,
school of politicians sought to make it ap-
pear, in perspective.
A good deal of the abuse Of the President
elect, was, considering its partisan charac-
ter, TO be taken cum grapO sails, and so
many intelligent Southern men regarded it,
their own good sense and reverence for
truth impelling them not to indulge the
habit, and TO Tebuke il in others, as in the
worst possible taste, from a Southern stand
poiOt. Many Confederate soldiers respect
Gen. Grant. They remember that he was
a gallant and maguanimOus foe; he did am
pie Justice to their feelings and motives,
when after the war closed he was asked to
give information about them; he stood be-
tween their greatest leader and the cry for
vengeance; he has urged on all proper Oc-
casions the removal of the disabilities which
were imposed after the war; he has exer-
IRENE powers which were conferred upon
him, at the earnest solicitation of Mr.. Gree
ley; and The questions upon which they
have opposed him and his administration
most determinedly heretofore had been de-
cided in bis favor by the voice of all part

BLAsPHEMY.

The Banner, in the desperation Of its de-
feat ct all points, inyokes theology to the aid
of its politics, and addressing its imaginary
'Rebels," says: ri
'But, gentlemen, may not God have been
right and You wrong? He saw fit to pre-
serve the unity of the nation, and to abol-
ish slavery"
So our Confederate soldiers, under Sid
ney johnson, Stonewall Jackson and Robert
Lee, were fighting against God Away
with such theology. 1t is not the worship
of God, but the idolatry of success. The
same theology would prove that SHE (God)
saw fit to preserve the unity of the Radical
party last Tuesday, against the ''maehina-
tons" of Greeley, Brown, S2hurz, Trum-
bull, etc. The same theology would make
God responsible for the success of Radical
corruption in every form. 1t would make
God endorse the Pacific railroad swindles.
And in past history it would make God the
author and promoter Of every successful
iniquity, from the decide of Pontius Plate
to the strangling Of poor Poland. Such
Theology is blasphemy.

The returDs from the State elections are
so emphaticaly scattering that it is utterly
impossible to give anything like definite
estimate of the result. The interest which
has been felt on all sides in the race for
Congressman at large, has swallowed up ali
other elections, both with those who send
and those who receive reports. We can
only say that so far as our incomplete and
imperfect reports go, the race between
Chatham and Maynard will be close;
Mr.. johnson is behind the other
two. Mr. Maynard's friends claim for him
seventeen thousand votes over Cheatham
in East Tennessee. Ifthis claim should be
substantiated by the returns, it viii be diff
cult to overcome. We shall have to await
returns from the counties away from the
line of railroads and telsTaphic cOmmu-
nieation. Let each make bis own calcula-
tions from the figures that are given in our
special telsgraphic dispatches, which are as
full as possibly could be, up to the hour of
going to press.
There is no doubt that Gov Brown is
reelected, and Greeley has carried the
State. We have not beard enough from
the FIRST Congressional district to venture
an opinion as to the result, though the
probabilities ara in favor of the election of
Butler, Radical. In the second, fifth and
ninth districts the Radicals have elected
their Congressman, With probabilities in
favor ofthe election of Num-, Radical, in the
eighth district. As we have again and again,
and still again and again, endesvored to i'm
press upon the minds of our readers, the
''independenL" candidates for Congress
stood no chance for an election. There is
not one of them who is not, as we have
stated, far behind both his Democratic and
Radical competitors.
The Radicals with their ''iEdependent"
colleagues have considerably increased the
to Democracy over what it was
in the last Legislature. This is the present
outlook. -. ~ ASA
