esteemed friends, paid us cali on

the hope that the modified PROPOSE
ton to tax the county of Henderson,
in behalf of the jackson & Tenn. r.

majority. There has beeninO ADLER
opponent of the tax in his section
than Mr.. Pearson, and whilst he can
not, from principle, vote for it, even
in its present or any other shape, he
confessed that it had been emascu-

worthy of a favorable popular CON
sideration. IG7 -ifi yT'uuo3 OFT oiI
A truer, or more conscientious
man, one more thoroughly devoted
to all the duties of life, as he under
stands them, does not live, than our

ANDREW JOHNSON.

:. 81 u 81 .fE.H.
There are some editors in TenRes-
see to whom the name of Andrew
johnson is as offensive, as a red flag
to a Spanish bull; and they can no
more see The name mentioned in a
kindly way, than the bull can see
harmless piece of rcd bunting dis
played, without rousing their anger
and inspiring their belligerence.
Then, there are two orthree-and
only that number---so far as our OBJ
servation goes,-who can see any
other than a complimentary notice
of him, without getting their backs
up in most furious manner, and
uttering the most uneomplimentary
sentiments against the offending
party. Now, we do not belong to
either of these classes. His friends
may praise him as much as they
please, and we never say them nay,
and his enemies may abuse him to
their hearts content, and we don't
care cent.
There is no denying that Andrew
Johnson is a man of ability and
courage, and has fought his way
through life in a manner to excite
the admiration of many, and the
envy of no small number. He has
run his race. His car ear is ended,
and any attempt to keep him before
the people as prospective candi-
date for the Presidency, in our
judgment, caurses a dead actor to
Shay superhuous on the statge,' of
politics. rabi ne AMOS r.aas--
We do not envy the feelings of
those who "kick the dead lions
nor do we envy those who con-
tinue to flaunt and flout an, often
sive corpse in the face and nostrils
of unoffending people. Let him be
buried out of sight,--his yir-
tues remembered and commended,
and his faults--ofwhieh no candid
man can say he had not goodly
number-be given to oblivion.

The one Term PrlneIpIe


The one term principle is likely
to enter largely in the next presi-
Dental canvass, and it may consti-
tute plank in the platforms of the
two great parties OF the country
Sumner has already presented the
question to the Senate, and viii
doubtless press it with his usual
persistency. Conkling, it is true,
has. denounced the bill as a covert
thrust at the present incumbent of
the Presidential chair, but that SEN
ator is so thoroughly in the interest
of the administration that he is sup
posed to speak rather for it than for
any considerable portion of his fel-
low citizens.
To render the President ineligible
to a second term meets our hearty
appreciation, and will enable our
high Magistrates to become states
men rather than politicians.
But this proposition to amend the
Constitution might be considered in
this light: Ought not the President
to be elected for at least six years,
and no longer? Do not our quad
RENAL elections come too soon on
the heels of each other? and does not
the heat engendered therein bring
danger to the stability of our insti-
buttons? Besides, in four years, al
though this is a secondary considc-
ration, can any man acquaint him.
self with the duties of so exalted a
position? We believe the one term
principle coupled with this change
would purify the political atmos-
phere around the WhiteHouse, secure
repose 10 the country, and withdraw
the popular mind from the constant
turmoil of the hustipgs. and con-

Under this caption the Memphis
Ledger ola late date, contains the
following; "Our memory may be at
fault, but we do not remember, in
the history of our politics, that,
since the organization of parties,
any party in the month of January,
preceding Q Presidential election,
that had not brought prominently
to the front a candidate for the
Presidency. The democratic party
has no candidate, and though il can
boast of many distinguished men, it
discovers, in the fog that has settled
upon the country, no light, no
strong arm to lead it TO victory.
Grant is master of the situatiOn-
The disafection in his party is not
formidable. There is something
strange about this man. He knows
nothing, but bends everything to his
will. He commits plumbers that
statesmen shudder at, but these
shuddering statesmen discover in
opposition to him their death war
rants. Sumner, who was treated
like a dog at the instigatiOn of
Grant, will return whining TO lick
his hand. Schurz will so btck and
eat all his brave words. Trumbull
will probably hold out until he dis
covers Death galloping down on the
pale horse, and then he viii take to
his heels and plunge headlong into
the Grant camp for safety But
what will the democracy do? The
majority of the Northern people are
bound to Grant by some mysterious
tie that all his sins cannot break
They either fear him, or he has
charmed them as a snake charms
birds. The democratic strength in
the Union is tremendous. Itsprih-
cipIes, even its enemies, DO. not at
tack. But it is poWerless. Its pres
tige is gone. 1t has not even deter
mined to hold a National Conven-
ton and contest the next Presiden=
tial election. Meantime its strength,
for want of concentration, is wasting
away, while the administration is
moving step by step, in the deviiish
programme of overthrowing the
liberties of the people. AS things
now appear Grant is to have no OPP
position. Fortunately for the eoun-
try, the philosophy of MicawBer
still lives. That, at least, has not
been swamped by the political cy-
clone. Something may yet turn

supreme Court Decision ON the Lee

Washington, January 15.-In the

Justice Strong delivered the opin-
ion of the court affirming the consti-
nationality of the legal tender acts
of Congress, Messrs. Swayne, Davis,
Miller and Bradley concurring. The
last named read his views on one
branch of the question. Chief JUS
tice Chase delivered a dissenting
opinion for himself. Messrs. Field,
Clifford and Nelson's views on tho
same side were read by Clifford
Field and Nelson were absent.
The dissenting opinions refer to
the fact that the question on its
former decision, was so ably argued
and decided with as mature deibe-
ration as any case ever before the
court, by full, the decision being
concurred IN by five Justices against
three dissenting. The court BY law
then consisted of eight Justices, aud
its decision is now oYerruled by
