the lateness of the season, quite number

using this water he had gained twenty
pounds in weight.

The First DistrIct.i

Our advicos from the upper end
Of the District as regards the race
for Congress between .Messrs. Car
ter and Butler, are of the most
cheering character. At Elizabeth
ton, on Monday of last week, we
are told that Mr.. Carter just ''fay-
ed Rod erick alive" not leaving
enough of hIm to make a respect,
able greasy rpot." Let our friends
be active in the good work, and
cease not an effort to give Mr.. Car
ter large majority over his willy
opponent, who has SO long misrep
resented our District in Congress.

The October Prospects.
Washington dispatch to the Boston Post.

Washington dispatch to the Boston Post.
At the Democrat and Liberal
Committee rooms the news and
reports received from all Sec
tons of the country are very
satisfactory just now. Greeley
stock hes "gone up" wonderfully
during the past ten days. Our
candidates speeches have done
great good, and in no instance is
fault found in anything that has
been said by him in his public
addresses. His Pittsburgh speech
and remarks delivered before the
Cincinnati chamber of commerce
are especially mentioned as having
placed Mr. Greeley more satisfactory
ly on record than anything that has
yet been given to the public. A
teleg am received yesterday from
Pittsburgh. by Hon. Samuel J. Ran
dal, states that Greeley's speech at
Pittsburgh will give the Democrats
and Liberals at least FIVE thousand
more votes in western Pennsylva-
MIA than would have otherwise have
been received by him. Messrs.
Randall and Mcclure claim that
they can foil the Radicals in the
frauds they expect to perpetrato in
Pennsylvania in the ensuing State
election. Ia conversation. to-day.
with one Of the candidates for Con-
gress at large on the Radical ticket,
the latter stated that there was no
use of Disgusting the fact that
Pennsylvania is lost to the Grant
party that even should BuckaIew
fail to carry the State, the disaffec-
tion in the Republican ranks in favor
of Greeley cannot be helped. The
chairman Of the Democratic State
Committee of Wisconsin feels conf
dent Of carrying that State in
November by 5000, and also of
carrying the State Legislature. It
is claimed that a large majority of
the Germans Of that State will vote
for Greeley. 1t is learned from
Indiana that Senator Morton, in
his anxiety to carry Indiana, is
swapping State candidates for the
Legislature, it being his hope to
re-elect himself to the Senate, be
having little or no hope of electing
the Grant candidate for Governor.

The Avalanche says, of the Con
gressional race in the Memphis
district:
Lewis (Radical) is out of the
race, and the friends, respectively,
of Messrs. Kellar and Haynes need
have no fears of Lewis election, no
matter for whom of the other two
they cast their votes"
That is what the Johnson men
are saying in the race for Congress
man at largo. That is what they
told at Nashville in the late race
for Mayor. The result was the
election of a Radical. So it may
be in the Haynes Kellar and Cheat
ham johnson races. tits certainly
very evident that neither Mr. John
son nor Col. Kcllar have any reas-
enable chance for election. Their
chances are not only small but
growing less every day. Indepen-
dents may elect Radicals; they
most assuredly cannot elect them
selves.

How Ii Stands.

The Knoxville Press and Herald
says the Gainesboro' Sentinel, is in
favor of Conventions. II stood by
a Radical Convention in Cincinnati F.;
it sustains the action of the $50
called Democratic Convention at
Baltimore" 1t endorses tho Con-
vention act that gave A. Caldwell
as the standard bearer of the De-
mocracy in the Second Congressional
District OF these, two might be
called regular; the other was a
fraud. 1t now has not the courage
to stand by one other Convention,
which was regular, and Of " hose
nominee it dan e not say word as to
his honor, integrity or ability. But
as Andrew johnson lives in East
Tennessee, we ask the Herald if the
Appeal has given its correct status.
1t says: "only q pensioned press
represents him.

Cheatham and Johnson

A member of the bar in Yves
Tennessee writes to the Union and
American, d" l have just returned
home from attending my courts
which include a portion of three
Circuits, and from the Judges and
mem bers OF the bar with whom I
have been ia contact, I assure yon
that if there is full vote polle.. .
this division of the State. Eet
Cheatham will beat johnson TWEEN
ty thousand votes. You may ca.cu-
late the entire Confederate senti-
ment against Johnson, and yet that
same sentiment is not only unani-
nous but enthusiastic for Greeley.
How is this? Mr.. Johnson's own
speeches will give a full answer to
the question. The Grant men Cd.
pose him because Of bis personal
difficulties with Grant. The Lib
eral Republican Greeley men very
few, will not support him because,
instead of supporting Greeley be
damns him with faint praise. The
Democracy will not support him
because he is disorganizer, and is
supported by every disorganizing
speaker and paper IN The State"
An original Johnson man wri-
ting to the same paper from Obion
county says :"All here now are for
Cheatham and organization"
A business letter from PurdAn
McNafry county. Both Septem Or,
says: atkins and Travis spoke
hero on Friday East. Atkins will
carry the county by handsome
but nothing to equal the
majority which the gallant Cheat
ham will get. The Republicans
will run a man in this district in
order to hold their organization,
and in that event the Democrats
will unite on Atkins"

The Democracy of Georgia have
carried that State by a large
majority, electing the Governor by
over forty thousand. A dispatch
from Savannah, says; The money
that was sent here from Washing
ton to pay the poll taxes of the ne
groes was appropriated by the
white Radical managers who gave
the negroes bogus receipts. This
swindling deprived a large mum Der
of negroes of their votes"

Col. Garrett who is running
az an "independent" against Col.
Aft. Caldwell, the regular nominee
for Congress in the second district,
says Of the Sparta Convention
which nominated Caldwell: 'It
