MISTAKES will happen in the best man
aged newspaper offices. They are occa-
sionally very ridiculous, though, aud will
meet with little excuse from the public.
The Louisville Col0'ier-Jo,ty7tut of Satur-
day last, had very laughable mistake. In
its special telegram from Washington, CIV
ing the Senate vote on-Sumners-Gi Civil
Rights amendment to the Amnesty Bill,
its readers were gravely informed that,
there being tie vote, Col. Fox gave the
casting vote for the amendment The
Courier-Jom7,dL compositors, proof reader
and night editor must have been OH a BEN
der, for in the same paper we found ex-
tracts from the Knoxville Democrat. We
have an unadulterated Democratic sheet
here -anti-new departure-anti-libera con-
vcntion, &c, but it don't go by that name.

WHERE IS THE DIsAFrEcTIoE 7

A farmer in Illinois, on one occasion,
applied to his family physician for medi-
cal aid, " for" said he, " they say the
neighbors are all dying with fever" The
doctor intimated that there must be some
mistake about il, for he had heard nothing
of the epidemic But the farmer persisted
in his story TO ascertain the truth of the
report, the doctor began inquiry about the
neighbors I,y name, taking in the whole
neighborhood for miles, and ended by
finding that his alarmed patron was not
able to give single instance upon which
TO base his eXtravagant and sensational
story.
The incident has its moral. We hear very
much said just now about the widespread
and universal disafection pervading theRe-
publican ranks. We hear that everywhere
the people are dissatisfied with President
Grant and his administration. IL this so :!
In what better way can We decide this
question than 10y pursuing the policy of
our Illinois doctor" Apply this test at our
doors. How is il i'll East Tennessee a."
Who is dissatisfied l. there any evidence
Of dissatisfaction here" We say deliber-
ately, and after Investigation, that We do
not know of single Republican i'll all this
section dissatisfied with the President On
the contrary we have peculiar facilities for
knowing that his administration has
strengthened Us. Before accepting these
stories, then, of universal dissatisfaction,
let us examine our own section. What IL
true OF us, ought to be true of others, and
applying this test we are compelled to he
lievc the alarm of some Oyer-sensatiYe
friends unfounded.
But while we believe this, we arc yet
mindful Of the fact that in all such mat
ters as choosing candidate for President,
we must all be charitable and liberal. We
see no reason or excuse for reading men
cut of the party because they do not agree
with Us on these matters. We need the
help of every Republican in the coming
important canvass. On the eve of an I'M
portant battlea prudent general does not
divide or demoraliZe his troops. We need
to make mutual concessions and deal fair
Nv and literally with each other. Cnreas-
enable and turbulent spirits there are III
every party.
Leaders arc always to be found who
want to dictate, but there is Il way to 81
Ience even them, Let the party i'll it, Gus
tonary way choose its candidates and de-
fine its principles and policy. After this is
done, those who are not with lis are against
US, and then it Is time to close the doors
and determine the status of those who stih
rebel Until then, we have need to be
charitable and prudent. 80 far a. we are
concerned, fully satisfied of the wishes of
the Republicans of Tennessee, we favor
the denomination of Gen. Grant, but we
shall support the nominees Of the Phila-
delphia Convention if they should not I've
our first choice. If those who oppose Gen.
Grant will do the same we shall present Il
united front and meet with success, beyond
any question.

WI invite attention Ia the COmmuncu-
ton of TENNESSEE on our first page, for
in ii will lie found a subject of special inn
portance to Knoxville. The pledge of ff-
teen thousand dollars for library Will be
remembered by all friends Of the College
We do not SEQ why this promise should
not be fuliilled, for the city is morally
Sound TO meet il. Ne ought TO, and must
10 something for this great work. The
College has some funds but none that can

number of students will soon hc too
great for the accommodations Can
we az Il city afford to stand by and
sec students turned from the Col
Icge doors for want of dormitories, as must
soon lie the case if the roll increases as it has
heretofore Our correspondent, s. \. T.,
says the Kentucky College has eight hum
dred students. We ought to have as many,
and if we had, they would benefit our city
10 the extent of at least 100000 per an
mum. Can we. in view of a TedSOHaJic
prospect Of approXimating this number,
refuse to aid III putting the University
upon basis TO do its great and good work ?
len thousand dollars would build very
good dormitory capable of accommodating
two hundred, or perhaps more. students.
Do our readers suppose that if the Leg
islature mad the Agricultural College fund
for disposal and would say, We will give it
10 the city afiording the best accomoda-
tons for students, that several cities would
not promptly respond with offers of fifty
thousand OF more dollars! But having
this fund now in our hands, are we not
bound by every consideration to aid in
making it perfectly available for the good
of the whole State? These are serious
questions for our people. We hope they
will receive the consideration they merit.

THE DEAF DEMOCRACy..

So entire a REIMBURSEMENT ofpurpose
and all that the Democratic party has
been contending for for the last ten
years, as the adoption of the Cincinnati
platform and ticket at Baltimore will
imply, will be nothing less than the
death of that organization. 1t will be
its utter subsection to its former foes,
the acknowledgment that the principles
for which it has protested to fight were
not principles at all, and that lis whole
career has been infamous The party
can never be revived after this policy.
It must drop to pieces and be merged
into new parties, losing its distinctive
ideas and organization and becoming
the prey of its enemies. This fate is
inevitable, whether Greeley and Brown
be successful or defeated. The chain
of allegiance will be entirely sundered
and the disintegration completely &C
complished by the suicide that is now
sure to be practiced at Baltimore For
ney's Press.

THE GREAT MASS of the Democrat
ic Party are as completely lost, as were
the childreh of Israel when in the
Wilderness and unless the burning
bush, lit at Louisville, should light up
the crooked path they are now in,

bring them in view of the original land

On Hrs Own CHANCES. When Mr..
Geeeley was in the habit of speaking
his mind, his utturances were of some
public value. He often succeeded in
putting a vast deal of truth into small
compass, and never had a greater sue
cess in this way than when he said in
his Trumbull County, Ohio, speech, last
Fall "If the Democratic party were
called on to decide between it and my.
self, know that their regard for what
they must call principles would induce
nine-tenths of them to vote against
me. WhyP I am a decided enemy
Of that party, even in its most respecta-
BILE aspects.''

GREELEY's When the re
bellious Traitors are overwhelmed in
the Field, and scattered like leaves be-
fore an angry wind, it must not be to
return to Peaceful and Contented
Homes. They must find poverty at
their tlresides, and see privation in the
anxious eyes of mothers and the rags of
chiidren.-Horace Greeley, Tribune,
May 1, 1861.
Horace has had his wish, and now
expects those parties to "kiss the hand
that smote them."
If the northern army had have car
ried out Greeley's advice, there would
have been no trouble in the title of the
land for the blacks or whites who did
the work.

"A lady in Fayetteville wants to
build a national temple of stupendous
proportions, where all the people of all
denominations may worship. Her re-
ligion would harmonic well with
Greeley's politics. That is exactly the
kind oftemple he seeks to set up, but
the congregation don't appear to hover
around.

Ho Read the following from
Greeley's pen-mount white hat
on pole forty feet high-carry it
through the streets and hurra for
Greeley you Democratic office seekers
who abuse every one who does not
agree TO the Baltimore Convention
edict-read them out of the party-you
will soon see that their is no Democrat
ic party.
What Horace Greeley said regardikg
the !. SECESSION of the Southern STATES
80 AS to secession have said repSAt-
@ sdly and here repeat that if the people
OF the Jlave States, or of the cotton
States alone, really wish to get out of
the Union, / am in favor of letting
them out as soon as the result can be
peacefully and coustitutionally attain
ed"
This can be found on the fourth page
Of the New York Tribune of January
18th, 1861, and is the work of Horace
Greeley himself
In the Tribune on April 20, 1851, he
piped this tune:
DIT is now evident, and all men will
do well to shape their calculations ac-
cordingly, that the Union cannot be
dissolved. There cannot be two rival
and competing governments within tho
boundaries of the United States The
territorial integrity and the political
unity of the nation, are to be preserved
at whatever cost. Rebellion is to be
put down, not treated with.
This was a very difficult way of
singing from that employed on the 18th
of January; fully three months before.
But here is another. On May 1, 1851
Horace Greeley, 7sop Democratic caBdi-
date for President, wrote as follows in
the Tribune
"But nevertheless we mean to con-
quer theni-not merely to defeat but
to conquer. to subjugate them-and we
shall do this the most mercifully the
more speedily we do it. But when the
rebellious traitors are overwhelmed in
the field and scattered like leaves be-
fore an angry wind, it must not be to
return to peaceful and contented
homes. They must find poverty at
their firesides, and see privation in the
anxious eyes of mothers and the rags
of children"
After what Greeley has done-of
even had he done nothing at all-what
more brutal, inhuman sentiment than
the above could have been written. 1t
is utterly unchristian and unworthy
man permitted to live among civilized
beings.
Finally, June 8, 1862, Horace came
back with settler, which upset his as
sertions of the year before regarding
secession. Here is what he said in the |
Tribune, June, 1862:
owe utterly deny, repudiate and
condemn the pretended right of seces-
sion. No such right is known to our
Federal Constitution, nor in fact, to
any civilized framework of govern
ment. No such right was reserved
or supposed to be reserved, when the
States ratified or adopted the Federal
Constitution.
This ought to settle the question as
to Greeley 3 advocacy of and opposition |
to secession, What is here stated is
fact which is not denied by Greeley |
himself.

Nor so BAD.-"Genlemen," saws a

other day, 'our candidate never pat
