he carried it South; he protected it
as If it was his life's blood; he
brought every dollar of it back in
safety, and Johnson's friends
Johnson's appolntees-stole it.
Everybody in Tennessee knows how
that was. But everybody does not
know that johnson being President
of the United States, he was ap-
pealed to, entreated, to do some
thing-to say some little word-for
the relief of Tennessee az the criti-
cal moment of danger, and that he
refused It. We make this statement.
We declare that johnson not only
betrayed Tennessee, but sacrificed
it to his own cowardice and ambi-
ton; and we know perfectly well
what we are talking about
There was never a time during all
of Johnsoh's splendid and success
ful career that he would have raisd
his finger on the call of Tennessee,
however urgent. There never was
a time, during all his wanderings
and misfortunes, that Green Harris
would not-did nOt-leave every
thing behing him-comfort, social
cheer, convenience, business-to
ride through the night, through the
rain, through danger in answer to
the appeal of some friendless, poor
devil, who simply claimed to be q
soldier of Tennessee.
We know what we are talking
about here, too, and, as johnson
has invited the eomparison--as it is
purely a personal comparison-he
must take the consequences. Every
word we write is the truth. We
know both OF them better than they
know themselves. We owe neither
of them anything, either of grudge
or gratitude, and can speak freely
in the interest Of fair dealing and
Opcn-sailing.
We blush that an President
has so far forgot himself as to use
the language employed by johnson.
We regret the harsh tone of Harris
rejoinder. But, as johnson has
made certain charges, it is only
right that some competent, impair
tial outside opinion should be given,
and, 50, Paving an audience in Ten
nessee and a neighborly interest in
Tennessee affairs, we offer it, defy
ing contradiction. as
We do not despair of the Harris
party in the matter of political opin-
ions. Personally we have lost all
belief in johnson. The fight is a
personal fight exclusively. On this
point there is no choice left to dis
truth-seeking people
They must repudiate. johnson at all !

Mr.. EDITOR:-In consequence o.
being a little neglectful, we have
postponed giving the news from ouI
Burg, but howsoever we are still
progressing. Still more buildings
are going up, while others are now
completing. Col. Hardy has had q
rock wall put around his spring. D.
Reagan has walled up his well,
while DIR. Jerome Westmoreland
has cleared the rubbish out Of Box
street, and West. Inman has
bridged the gully in front of his
commodious residence. Yet Broad
street is spoiled by the old fence
around the church. We hope that
our town authorities will see to
keeping the COWS out of the church.
AS the Methodist church is solvent,
or ought to be, from the amount
they pay its preacher, although our
pastor gave us more abuse in his
farewell sermon than we wish to
take. We have four doctors and
they are very much upon the ex-
tremes-two of the fattest and two
of the leanest we boast of anywhere
in the State. Then we have six of
the tallest citizens in the county;
there is Jim Whitesides, Bill Sim
merlin, Mack Ironsides, Love So
linsky and Bill Rattenburg. Then
we will wager a small pony that we
have the handsomest clerks that
can be found this side of Minors
Hill. Farmers are picking from
four hundred to eight hundred
pounds Of seed cotton per acre, and
Judging from the way cotton is
coming into market, we will soon
have an overflow of greenbaclts.
Two sprightly young chaps started
to Nashville to take lessons from
the medical department. We arc
proud to be able to send ont so
many young doctors. The negro
children are dying so fast that there
Is scarcely n day passes but wha
there is from one to three burials.
We wish to call the attention of the
citizens from Elktou to GouTdsville
to the building Of turnpike from
ElktOn to Gourdsville. AS the
Messrs. Grove have finished the
bridge across Richland Creek, We
hope srme plan and day viii bc ap-
