Using the LEDGER. But Goldsmith

it is no less probable that when such indu-

THE ..NEW

No matter how ridiculously ''strange"
the Baxter paper" may appear to the
rebel-purc aud treason-devctcd Democrats
of Tennessee, the "New Departure" is
the s~cyc-cst and most dangerous blow
thew have received since their accession to
poyer. Scof and sDeer at the movement
as much as they may, they cannot SCOT
and sheer the fact out of existence, that
the movement is rapidly gaining momen-
ton and a formidable force of numbers.
Since events have demonstrated beyond
all cayil that the Rebels have resolved
that a commission in the Confederate ar
my or the high proof OF equal service to
ghs .Lost Cause shall be the only pass
ports to official honors, the Union element
Of the Conservative party have become
lukewsrm and are ready to depart" and
wait not upon the order of their gong.
This unconcsalcd prescription and ostra-
sism has caused great dissatisfaction in the
opposition ranks. Leading and influential
usn are deserving the rotten organization,
and cleansing their loyal robes OF the
taint Of Democratic contamination. "A
.~uelsus has boon formed around which the
disaffectcd element will crystalize from
she cohesive force of similar principles
and grievances. Mutuality of contempt
and hate has created a wide antagonlsm
bstvcen the two branches of the once
..happy family" Colonel Baxter "the
iaveterate foe Of corruptionists," has put
sn the w~ar-paint, donned his flashing reg
imentals and sounded the appalling tocsin
of = black-Gag war. Judge I. A Il.
Nelson brings to the incipient strife, the
mighty potency of a wide reputation for
political sagacity, integrity and Roman
arnness. Whilst we are decidedly OPP
posed to war and blood-letting, generally
speaking. We want this internal warfare to
rage from its present ierccncss to that
relentless savagery which must eliminate
In tho utter and irretrieyable dismember-
Hent of the Democratic party.
The plan of Baxter's Departure is to
disorganizc the Democracy, form a third
party and send delegates to the Cincin-
natl Convention. OF course, Democratic
office holders aud their dependents don't
want to commit suicide for the satisfaction
aud promotion Of somebody else and forth
with the interesting broil begins. This
contention is promising of great good.
Already, we see the handwriting of ruin
and death upon the crumbling structure
Of Tennessee Democracy.

IS IT POSSIBLE

Some insane or drunken ~"cuss," or sem
sible fellow with the fear of the Lord be-
fore his eyes must have stolen into the
sanctum of the Union and american, in
the absence of the editors, and pcrpetra-
tod the following paragraph:
Seventeen Radicals and three Demo-
Gratis composed the grand jury which in
dicted Gov, Davis, (rad.) of Texas, and
other State officers, who were concerned
in the election frauds, whereby ". T,
Clarke (rad.) obtained a seat in Congress
in place of d. C. Giddings (dem.)"
Shades of long buried truth! Is thy
animated form about to burst the cere-
ments of the tomb, and come forth
clothed IA the radiance Of thy prime
val glory! The "amazement' with which
the editors of the Press and Herald was
struck by Judge Nelson's departure"
was but a feeble thrill compared to the
fearful shock We experienced in reading
this article. Could we believe the anaz-
ing fact that a newspaper that has sharg-
ed nothing but unmitigated corruption
upon the Radical party could have the
candor and honesty to point to a single in
stance where radicals arraigned a single
one of their number for dishonesty? Will
other democratic papers copy this nice

COZ. SPEECH

In a public speech at Knoxville Teus-
day evening, Col. A. S. Colyar, a promin-
emit ex-rebel of Nashville, identified him.
self with what is called the anti-Grant
Liberal Republican movement. He said
there were stubborn democrats who would
favor no measure hat did not benefit
Democracy. The Old Line Wings follow
ed democracy into the rebellion and fought
for it, knowing what war would bring.
This fact ought to be considered and the
Democracy ought to act with some sense.
He did not believe Grant was the corrupt
man lie was charged with being. but he
did not appreciate the dangers of martial
law and he therefore opposed him. The
speaker said there were kuklu1 in middle
Tennessee, and give an account of the
hanging of three eolored men in Franklin
County. He had worked for law-and order
and plead with Gov. Brown for a bold and
aggressive campaign against lawlessness.
Said the Speaker, ''the Government has
been kind to me and ~pardoned me for my
rebellion. 1t has dealt literally with all
of us, and [ intend to stand by the flag.
L went into the rebellion. knowing l
would be a patriot if successful. a traitor
if defeated. [, therefore, appreciate
the pardon of the Government" These
words are remarkable for plainness and
honesty and were uttered by a man who
is not afraid to talk his sentiments.

WHICH OF THE TWO,

1t will be remembered that General w.
A. Quarlcs announced himself as a candi-
date for Governor, two years ago, on the
Democratic Ticket. In a few weeks, af-
ter visiting different parts of the State
and testing the popular pulse, he with
drew the announcement in favor of Gov
eInor Brown. 1t has leaked out that this
withdrawaiNwas in pursuance of an agree
ment that General Quarlcs would have a
clear track the next race.
The Dover Record and several newspa-
pers in West Tennessee are declaring for
Ouarles. and it is more than probable that
be will demand the contract and urge his
elsims. Governor Brown, having tasted
the sweets of Office and being somewhat
charmed with the superior eminence OF
his station, is quite as likely to desire an
endorsement of his administration by a
re-election. We all know this is a pecu-
liar weakness of Governors and Presidents
If not o~fice-holders generally. The strife
betwecn these two rebel chieftains is be-
ginning to wax warm. Soon the witch

DE-. SEWERS EXPLANATION.

The unusual burden of matter upon our
paper, together with the length of DIR.
Sewers Address to his late constituency,
has precluded an earlicr.appearance of the
now famous document in our columns. Its
elaboration should deter no n from a
close and studious pcrusal, as it is a most
satisfactory explanation of the reasons
that influenced the Honorable gentleman
to resign the Senatorship of this District,
whilst it is a rich, irrcfutable and cxcoria-
ting showing up of the dtimWS and spirit
of the Tennessee Rebel Democracy. Its
publication created a terrible futtcring
among the 'unrcconstructcd," for they
had assigned to the Doctor a work in the
LIST Congressional District, which no one
Of their order could accomplish. The
Doctors bold expose of their former in
decent and ungratcful acts, their caucus
plottings and future plans shivered this
-~sls.s'' into atoms. Tho rebels find out
VIXEN it is forever too late, they have sup
plemented tho multitude of their follies
with m act of outrage as damning to their
political character as it will be disastrous
