In Ohio, although the liberals have

We have carried Indiana by about

The Democratic State Convention
which assembled at Nashville in 1868
spoke of Andrew Johnson in the fol-
lowing manner. Considering that ma
ny of these same men are now trying to
brand him with tie disapprobation If
the State in 1872, We are COMPEL
ed to state that their course smacks
smartly Of either inconstahcy or in
sincerity.
ReSoZpcd, That Andrew Johnson, in
the discharge of his great functions as
President of the United States at Pc
riod of trying and unprecedented emf
barrassment, has rendered his name
illustrious by the fidelity with which
he has sought ito preserve, protect
and defend the Constitution " against
the assault of a revolutionary faction /;
and in his recent signal triumph in
that behalf has earned the gratitude
of the American people, and render
ed himself worthy of the highest mark
of confidence that may be bestowed on
him and in the event his name should
be offered TO the National Nominating
Convention, it is due that the represen-
tatives of his own State should cast q
united vote i'll his favor.

Death Of Mr.. seward.

On Thursday last, at his home
il the town of Auburn, n Y, Mr..
VIM. II. Seward, expired in the
seventy first year of his age. 1t is
the duty of the unimpassioned
press, to state that mighty man
has been gathered to his fathers.
It is not probable that, during the
mature years cfour great republic
more positive and finely adjusted
intellect has been developed, or
impressed itself upon the history OF
our continent. Certainly in civil
affairs, and among those people
who now dominate and govern
America, Mr.. Seward has histo-
~ which is broader and longer and
deeTer than any other. AS pio-
neer in the movement, which smote
the great institution Of human bon
dsge, until it disappeared from the
front ofthis people, he may not take
his rank with Horace Greeley
But for the degree of tact, Judge
ment and craftsmanship, with
which he led, conducted and con-
sumated the movement, he may be
said to stand pre-eminent among
Americans. The severest criticism
with which public opinion has
assuited him has been fo2 his
assertion that conscience is more
obligatory than human law. But
it will be difficult to prove
% this and coming generations that
his position is untenable. As a
iorecaster of political events he
was practically a Phophct, and he
not only loved to see the fulfillment
Of his prophecy, but may be said
TO have seen the subsidience Of the
passion it provoked. The cmanci-
ration movement arose in his dav,
if not in his mind, and while he
harncsscd the tightening of its ag-
greFsive vengeance, it should be
said Of him that lie attempted to
keep them within the restraints of
reason. The abolition of slavery
has been conceived and consumated
in his day. TIE war which it evok-
ed is rapidly sinking beneath the
current of our remarkable progress
in all material things, and the his
torian who records it will with re-
greet record that, though Mr..
Seward lived to see it all, he died
before the victorious party whi:h
began and ended it, had consented
that we again rhall be one homo
gcneous people, beneath the homo
geneous institutions which it es-
tablished over the entire union.

The 6;ubernntOrsaI Discussion.

On Thursday last Coz. Brown, and
Hon. 4. 4. freeman. addressed in
Bristol respectable sized audience.
Mr.. Freeman led, in 4 speech of much
the mildest and least offensive tone,
which We have yet heard from rad
ical candidate. As a-speaker, he is
decidedly inferior to his antagonist,
Gov. Brown, who has improved very
decidedly upon the oratorical devel-
opment he exhibited in his first cam
paign. Mr.. Freeman fell decidedly
below the expectation ofhis political
friends present. to whom it was evil
dent that Gov Brown used him up
Freeman advocated general tax for
the support of free schools. aud up
on that one point We most thorough
" agree With him. lie stated that
Tennessee is in point Of ignorance,
the second State in the union. lie
vas very anxious that bis Antagonist
should declare his position in the
Chcatham johnson contest. but the
Gov. good humOredlY. told him it was
none Of his business " With the
exception Of couple of anecdotes,
which scarcely accord with the high
station of chief magistrate of the
State. we considered Gov. Browns
speech, as triumphant as it was ad-
mirable. The following summary
from the Chattanooga Times, is so
nearly suited to bis speech at Bristol.

faces as we'll IS the skin, producing
hcmorrkages and the yellow matter Of
the vessicles gives way to thin

In any of its forms small pox will
run its course. Good nursing is es-
sential and indispensable. Cooling
drinks are indicated and tho body
should be sponged frequently with
cool or tepid water. The sickness OF
the stomach may be relieved by sub
nitrate of Bismuth. When debility
ensues stimulants are administered.
Free ventilation without chilling the
