THE vrRGINEASs.

The yeomanry of Virginia who are
opposed to the rule and ruin of Radical
ism, call themselves Conservatives.
Their aims and principles, however, are
in no wise different from those Of the
Democracy in New York, Ohio, or
Tennessee. We attach little impor-
lance 70 the assertions of Radical
sheets that the Conservatives turned
the recent Virginia campaign into a
cry for white mans government. "
We know full well that if Democrats,
go l1onpiase, had given ground for such
charge, all the changes on it would
have been rung to the echo by our So
called Independent" organs, and the
Virginians denounced as Bourbons,
moonshiners, etc. They would no
doubt have carried their State all the
same; this incident only shows how
easily these organs are duped,
and how a change Of name, if
otherwise feasible or desirable, might
disarrange their light artillery. We
still prefer, however, to fight open enc
mics, and retain a name which every
Radical or Radical .sympathizer runs
away from like Satan from holy water.
En- PEASANT, we may note another i'd
osyncracy of the Virginians: they were
not Conservative" enough last year to
vote for Horace Greeley, and let the
election go for Grant by default, stay
ing at home, for all the world, Ike the
10000 Pennsylvania Dutch" Demo-
Gratis, ON whose devoted heads Liberal
ism poured the walls of its wrath. The
Virginia Conservative is, we imagine, a
different article from the party estrays
found sometimes IN Tennessee. The
Memphis appeal, for instance, states
that Conservative "means one who
holds intermediate or moderate opin-
ions IN politics; one who desires to
maintain existing institutions, as OPP
posed to revolutionary or radical meas
ures." We are not conservative at all
In this sense. There are various exist
ing institutions we want abolished.
There is the protective tariff-the ma
tional bank nuisance-the bayonet in
stitions of Louisiana. We might go on
to recite thousand of such existing
concerns that we have no wish to "con-
serve" It is discomfort with existing
institutions, such as railroad monopo-
lies and the tariff, that has given rise to
the Granger movement. The same dis
content Of the people, East as well as
West, was shown In the recent cleo
tons. The people seem profoundly
disguised with sundry existing institu-
tons. The Democracy does propose
radical measures" for their remedy it
proposes to go to the root of the evil.
But it advocates nothing ''revolutiona-
ry," AID never has 1t seeks redress
through constitutional means only.

THE EAST TENN. COMPLICATIONS.
Pursuing LopdermiIk-The DirefuI

Pursuing LOpdermiIk-The DirefuI
The KROrriLe Press AID Herald of the
26th says:
yesterday morning, Mr.. j. X. Love
received 500 from Col. Frank Welcker, Of
Roam county, for the recovery of the two
horses stolen from him, and which had
been ridden by Mangrum and Loudermilk
Mr.. Love offered $3.50 for one. of the ami
mails, fine mare which Mangum had
used, and whose splendid qualities in
standing fire and carrying her rider with
tieetneSS, had won Mr.. Loves admiration.
The offer was refused, the newly re-pos-
sessed owner asking $500. The pursuit is
being kept up. From information received,
last evening, and which we DO not diyulge
from prudential considerations, it is be-
lieved that Ioudermilk'S trail has been
discovered and that he certainly will be
captured. Mangrum rested well yesterday,
and the probabilities are that he will re-
cover. Mangrum Mynatt has not vet been
arrested. Ganum stated that it was the
purpose of the band to leave the country.
but Ganum Mynatt would not 90 until
Love was killed for his participation in the
arrest of Mynatt for raping his step
daughter. This, coming to Loves knowl-
edgs, RerFed his determination to capture
or kill the gang. How well he succeeded
is matter of history.

WHAT TENNESsEEANs WILL DO.

The Washington correspondent of
the Ne1c York Herald makes this re-
port:
"Representative David A. Num-,
from Tennessee, fully accords with his
colleague, Mr.. Thornburg, III his state
ment that Tennessee viii offer a large
volunteer force in case of a war with
Spain. He says that the State is glow
ing with excitement on the subject.
There is a feeling that Cuba properly
belongs to the United States, and that
the Spanish colonial authorities by their
utter disregard of all the rights of hu-
manity and the laws of nations have
afforded us the opportunity to take 1t.
In Tennessee in this matter there is a
unity of sentiment. The people all
agree upon what ought to be done.
Confederate soldiers and Federal sol
diers, Republicans and Democrats, will
forget their former contests and their
present political differences and fight
side by side in the cause"
In this connection we give the fol-
lowing paragraph from the KHosUille
Chronicle of Nov. 26, which comes to us
marked:
READY TO DO THEIR DUTY-While
we still hope an honorable, peaceful
settlement OF our troubles with Spain
probable, it is gratifying to know that
50 large a portion of our fellow-citizens
who fought in the Confederate army
stand ready to tender their services to
President Grant if necessary, to defend
she honor and protect the rights of
American citizens. Not only in Knox
Vile, but throughout East Tennessee,
gentlemen prominent in the late Gun
pleasantness" have signifed their will
ingness to fight side by side with the
boys who wore the blue. One redeem
ing feature Of the war. if it must come,
would be that it would DO more than
anything else could, to re-unite our peo-
DIE in cordial, fraternal bonds"

to be, a great European demand for

Ex-Gov. Hartman felt confident that

carry the State if they worked hard.
E. H. Rollins was less sanguine. In
his opinion, the fate of the State ticket
depended upon the action of Congress.

Sl,500,0 600, on which the credit mobilier
contractors charged a profit to them
selves of S2,5OO,OO0, making its cost to
