An OLIVE BRANCH.

If the AraLancke were asked In what
form or mode expression could be given
TO this work of cementing the people
together, it would suggest resolution
ON the part Of the State Convention en-
dorsing Andrew johnson for the next
Senator from Tennessee to the Senate
of the United States. The estrange-
ment can thus be healed, for the solemn
act of the convention would be accepted
everywhere as final act OF harmony,
made so by a deed and not by mere
words. Why should We disguise our
feelings or suppress the sentiments and
motives of SO many who will represent:
Let us be outspoken and candid, and
there will then remain no cause for re-
proach. Let the past be forgotten IN
the consummation of the present upon
a basis honorable and manly to all
Memphis AUalanche.
Mr.. johnson may well exclaIm
"Save me from my friends" His abili'
ties and claims are well known through
out the State, and could receive no ad.
ditional prestige from such Fictitious
endorsement. 1t would look too much
like forcing matters We doubt thai
Mr.. johnson himself would regard II
as compliment after expressing his
views about conventions 50 freely II
the recent past.
Besides, it might develop in the con
vention desire on the part of West
Tennessee to have Judge T. w. Brown
endorsed, especially if that section fail
to receive the GovernorshIp. Ther
Middle Tennessee might come in want
ing Gen. w. B. Bate endorsed AnC
still others would bedragged IN. Thu
the whole Senatorial struggle might b,
sprung at the very incipiency of tn
State canvass, rendering next to I'm
possible the harmonious cooperation
needed for success. 1t is but the die
tate of common prudence to win tn
fight first and settle these matter
| after.

THE BATTLE GRaUND OF IDEAS.

THE BATTLE GROUND OF IDEAS.
The eyes of the whole country are
upon Tennessee and her State eonven-
ton. Friends watch 70 hear the voice
of the noble old Volunteer State which
never shirked am emergency-that
State which has furnished Jackson,
a Polk and Jobnson-Which decided
for good or i'll the wavering doubtscon-
corning Greeley's candidature. En-
emies also watch with eager eyes to
note our shortcomings and blunders-
to turn them into weapons against our
friends North, East and West. Let 1t
90 forth that Tennessee favors repudia-
ton, no matter how indirectly, and
Radicalism Will nave a new argument
to inhame the North and consolidate
the money power against Us. The
State that sights her own obligations
can have no regard, they will argue, for
the debt that preserved the Union.
Loyalty will be again the rallying cry,
and Civil Rights, with all its train of
horrors, will be triumphantly forced TO
the lips of Southern rebels" and repu-
diators. twill give the Republicans a
new lease of power, and re-elect the
army of salary grabbing and Cred
it Mobilier Congressman who are
being shamelessly renominated In
Republican Districts. 1t will dissi-
pate our bright hopes fer 1876, ALLEVIATE
our Northern friends and .well-wishers,
postponing for at least six years longer
our own redemption and that of the
whole country from Radical class legis'
lation. Remember Tennessee is a Dem
ocratic State, and Southern State
Unlike her Southern sisters, she en-
Joys local freedom. Therefore the
whole South, and the Northern DemOc
racy from Maine to Oregon will be held
responsible for whatever blunders We
commit

60 SLOW.

The convention that meets in tins
city tomorrow Is pretty certain to be
the largest ever assembled in the State.
Shelby and Davidson send fifty dele
gates each. If the other ninety-one
counties send only 4 single member
each. We would have a body Of about
two hundred. But the other counties
hay. s.ur from FIVE to twenty OF more
DELEGATES. and the temper IF the times
Is such shat the great majority are
likely to attend. Thus the convention
can hardly fall short of three hundred,
and may exceed SIX hundred.
On account Of this fullness of
numbers. it will be desirable to conduct
the proceedings with due deliberations,
70 enable each member TO act and vote
intelligently on each subject thatcomes
before them. To make good work
work that will stand, 1t is needful that
calmness and decorum prevail. Let
naught be done hastily, but after due
deIiberation and a careful review of the
pros. and cons. The delegates and the
people DO not want quick work but
good work.
