EXIT ANDY JOHNSON. The most interesting
and the most handsomely conducted local fight
in ell our recent elections was that in Ten
nessee for Congressman at Large between
Maynard, republican; Cheatham, regular
democrat and ex-President Andy Johnson,
Independent democrat and expounder and
defender of the constitution. The official vote
of the State for President is--for Greeley,
4,2l9; for Grant 85,G39; Greeley's major
ity. $3.50. But while Maynard for Congress-
man at Large got all the Grant vote the Gree
ley vote was divided between Cheatham and
johnson. SO that Maynard beats Cheatham by
$4,000 and Johnson by over $4,000. Thus
johnson. we regret to say, between the two
great parties, falls to the ground but still,
and before long, we expect to hear his clarion
voice again in defence of the constitution.
