vote considerable space to gubernatorial
sPeculations. So far as West Tennessee
is concerned and her chances for supply
ing tie coming man, this is all wanton

HOW STRANGE.

But a short time ago, when the
Union party began to degenerate by
its radiealism and change of name, and
| when its leaders become drunk bv cor
ruption and political debauchery, and
opened the aoodgates of naturalization
and citizenship to- all Africa and invited
that horde OF barbarions to come here
and assist us in the great experiment
of self-goverment, and actually extern
ded the elective franchise to those Of
that race who were here, the great ma,
jority ofthe little politicians ,whitfets and
demagogues of that party of, progress
never goes backward together with
majority of its members all said:-We
don't think its right, we are sure the
principle is wrong, We agree with YOU,
it should never have been done, and
we would not stand it at all, if Senator
Williams hadn't declared it necessary
to create loyal element in the South.
but now the thing has become fixed
fact" and We might as we'll acquiesce
because we cant change it, because
they argued, to denounce what our
immaculate Congress has done, and
what has been sanctioned most solemnly
by our Republican President, would
be equivalent to a disbaadment
of this glorious party Of progress, chat
is destined to rule or ruin during the
next quarter of century,
The last Congress committed another
blundcr, in magnitude but small its
true, compared with the first. in the |
passage of the salary bill, which also |
was cheerfully acquieseed in and
signed by the President, but the howl |
now goes up from even the wor<hipers
IF Grant that, this law was passed by
band Of thieves, and they cry on every
corner of the street for its repeal, aud |
tic apologists of our modern caesar
whisper, he is willing it should be re-
pealed, al but his salary. The very
'oil of America to-day, wears hideous
blush, for the infamy of her degenerate
sons. Why is it that the FIRST and
greater wrong was patiently born, and
he last and lesser one so violently de-
bounced? the answer is ready; because
he political Williams who perpetrated |
both, found in the former se,their ex-
pertinent was not too great for the |
gullibility Of the masses of their wor-
shippers, while in the latter, they soon
discovered the elephant was too large |
and hence their howl IF the righteous
are scarcely saved, where will the sin
ner and the ungodly appear.
