day buyers are offering g cents, sellers

The MadisOnYilIe Convention,

Next Saturday the Joint Convention
assemblies at Madisonville for the pur.
pose Of nominating a candidate to repre-
sent Loudon and Monroe counties in
the lower branch of the next General
Assembly.
The delegates from each county have
been appointed, as will be seen nauoth-
er column OF this paper, and it is hoped
that every district will be represented
and the utmost harmony prevail, II
the proceedings are conducted fairly
the voters will abide by the decision Of
the Convention. And there is no cause
why they should not be. Harmony
must prevail in our local elections. We
understand there will be three and per-
haps more candidates before the Con-
vention. Capt. Z, G. Jones, of Loudon
county, Capt. H. A Chambers and DIR.
J. r. Mckenzie, Of Monroe county.
Neither OF these gentlemen have an
noInced their through the col
umns of our paper, as aspirants for the
position, consequently they have no
claims on this paper for its support, yet
We feel it u duty to support the nom
inee OF the people in Convention.

N. p. Hight.

We place the name of the above
named gentleman in the ticket at the
head of our columns, as the peoples can
didate for State Senator to represent the
Sixth District in the General Assembly.
In doing this we are satisfied that Mr..
Hight will poll the largest vote Of any
man in the district. There is not and
cannot be any objection to him. He is
an honorable and high toned gentleman,
ard will make q good Senator. For
these reasons we advocate his claims
upon the people, and not because he is
a citizen of our town. Let the people
unite upon Mr.. Hight and send him to
the Senate.

Cheatham and Johnson,

r We hoist the name, of Gen. Ghea-
than m'the Democratic candidate for
Congress from-the State at Large.
Though we have been for the past two
or three months advocating AndreW
Johnson's claims for the position, we do
not think, as a Democratic editor, il
would be doing justice to the party for
us to so against the regular nominee,
We shall therefore use the influence oi
the ENTERPRISE for Cheatham, and do
all in our power to secure his election,
To write at length on this subject would
be useless, as all members of the Con-
~Servative party Of Tennessee, who wish
to see the party triumph in November
next, will not hesitate to cast their votes
for Chatham. So may it be.

Card from Capt. HARRISON.

I avail myself of this opportunity, of
announcing to the people Of the 9th Sen.
atOrial District, thatI am no longer can.
didate to represent them in the next Leg
i~slature of Tennessee.
| have come to this conclusion, after a
careful consideration Of the political con.
dition Of affairs. There is nothing more
essential with the Conservative Demo-
cratic party at this time than to perfect a
thorough organization. IL is the only
thing that will insure success to our cause
in the great contest now upon US.
There are evident signs of disaffection
among US that must be displaced. With
out ii our efforts will certainly be unavail-
ing Then in view Of these things it is
the imperative duty of every man to cast
aside any personal considerations that he
may have and look alone to the success of
the party. We have had abundant tes-
timOny OF the nefarious rulings of the
Radical party in this State. Il heSitates
at nothing that will prolong its existence.
The Constitution has been trampled under
their feet for party purposes, the liberties
and rights of the people have been in
fringed, and they cast into dark dungeons
there to live miserable lives. All this
has been done by the Radical party with
in the past ten years. This is not all,
Railroad rings, Whisky rings, and aris-
t~ocratic money combinations have been
formed, the like of which is unknown to
modern days. The present administration
of the general Government has been and
Is now being run III the interest of those
stupendeOus rings and combinations, and
in direct opposition to tAe interest of the
masses of The people.
In the face of all this, what is the duty
Of the hour. In my humble opinion it is
that all political shades of opposition to
Grants administration should rally under
tie broad banners of reform. This is the
only way to attain that success SO desira-
bic to the people.
Some of the Democratic party have en-.
tertained different ideas in the tho past.
When the country was convulsed in a
great civil war, some Of US we're for the
success of the South, others favored the
North. That great conflict has ceased and
we should cOnsign it and all the differeu-
ces of opinion to one common grave Let
us work for our future property, not 20
back on the past; let us look to the liv-
ing issues of the day.
[ am one of those who engaged in the
late rebellion. Believed honestly that |
was doing right. Others of the COnserya.
tive party were ola different opinion. All
| ask Of them is to be as charitable to-
wards me as l am toward them. No doubt
they thought they were right and I hope
they believe | was honest. Impressed as
| am with the absolute necessity of per.
feet harmony, and understanding in the
party, | decline to be longer a candidate
for the State Senate. TO my various
friends who have reposed that confidence
in me BY requesting me to become a cam
didate to represent them in the next Leg
i~slature of the State l return my great
full thanks, and hope that my future con-
duct in their interest and behalf will be
such as to still merit their confidence.

Hon" j. A. Wimpy, of Lumpkin.


We are reliably informed that a U s
warrant was recently issued against John
A! Wimpy, charging him With having de-
frauded the U. s. Pension Bureau, at
Washington, D. o., BY the collection Of q
pension for Mrs. Mary NJ, Stanbory some
time in the year 1869, and applying the
same to his own use. The warrant was
placed in the hands of Col. ~. Findly,
U. s. Dept. Marshal, Northern Dist. Of
ia who at once went to the residence
OF WimPy for the purpose Of executing
it. When the Marshal arrived, Wimpy
was at home, but ~mistrusting that all was
not right, he gave the officer the dodge,
and made his escape. After summoning
a posse, a vigorous pursuit was made, but
up to last accounts he had not been ar
rested. Ii is supposed that he is conceal
ed in some Of the cliffs of rock on the
Chestee river.
We learn that this case is only one out
Of many of a similar character recently
brought to light. If this be true, as we
have the best reasons for believing it is,

4 Manly Letter.

We publish in this paper q noble
and manly letter from Gen. B. +. Cheat
ham, candidate for Congress from the
State at large, to the people of Tennnes-
see. After reading the letter, we do
not believe that any man, who has the
interest OF the party at heart 10 fail to
support him. Chentham is q farmer
an honest man, and We urge the farmers
the Importance of uniting upon him.
Drop Johnson, 1t is his intention to
kill ON party. Johnson says Greeley
is q bolter. He says the late war was
the result ofthe convention system. In
this he is mistaken. In 1858 Mr.. john
son was the candidate of q conven-
ton for Governor, and again in 1855.
He was the candidate of a convention
for Vice President in 1864. He was q
candidate before q convention in 1868
for the Presidency. Let us stand by
our organization Let us all go for
Cheatham. In the language of the
Ln,on and american, eve may be beat
en-, Radicalism may triumph and again
rule through Il disenslons. But we
shall still rally "ThO Old Guard" and
contest every inch of ground in defence
of Constitutional Government and for
the preservation of that party which has
so long and nobly stood against the as
saults of Radical fanaticism.' Let the
Democracy rally to Frank Cheatham.

The Best We Can Do.

The ENTERPRISE this week, is pretty
well filled up with matter pertaining to
the canvass between johnson and Chea-
than, for Congressional honors. It is
the best we can do. We have entered
the canvass for Cheatham, and propose
to fight it out on that line, no matter
how long it takes us to do it. When
we support q man nominated by the
party, we propose to leave no stone I'M

ency is cropping out in all directions,
and we shall not be at all surprised to
see at least q majority of radical Con-
gressmen returned from Tennessee, to
the next Congress, The candidacy Of
Andy johnson insmes three radical
members from East Tennessee, and ren-
ders the election of one Or two others
at least doubtful. But if they can stand
