COUNTY ORGANIZATION.

From the Hartsyile Sentinel, March 6.
The movement of Shelby county in
inaugurating a county anti Radical or
ganization has been freely discussed by
the Democratic press of the State, and
with but one exception, we believe, has
the verdict been unequivocally in favor
of similar plan bling adopted through
out Tennessee. The Radical organs
are in queer strait on the topic, and
have had to make what little capital
they could on the discussions developed
at the early part of that remarkable
meeting. We hope they find some
crumbs of comfort IN those slight way
ward expressions; they need something
to soothe them, and are easily salts
fed. The people are earnest in their
determination 20 throw out Radicalism,
and if those who profess to mold pub
lie opinion would let stale fish alone
and proceed to discuss means to get a
thorough expression from every county,
they would be rendering far more val
liable service than can be achieved by
hammerirg away at things of the past.
We are not proceeding to elect legisla-
tors for time gone by, but to fashion
our laws according to the sentiment of
the time we live IN. The great arm of
conscientious opponents to Radicalism
should now be concentrated on matur-
ing plan by which every precinct in
every county shall be able to make
distinct avowal of its wishes. By some
such means alone can the uncertain
carnations of general conventions be
avoided and the real choice of the peo-
pie secure the nomination.

HOW MOSES SHOT PETER.
Particulars of a Duel Between Two
COiOred Gentlemen Of Georgia.

AUGUSTA. Ga, March S.-Two negroes,
Peter Blair and Moses Sullivan, had some
angry words, during which Blair told Sui
livan he was no gentleman. The latter
demanded an apology or satisfaction with
shOt-guns or pistols. Blair replied that he
had no apology TO make, but he accepted
the challenge, naming time, place, and
weapons.
The parties met at Sand Bar Ferry this
forenoon, accompanied by their seconds,
two negroes named Ralph Knight and Viii
liam Armstrong. The ground was paced
off, and Colts five-shoOters placed in the
hands Of the principals.
knight gave the words of command. He
said, ''Peter, is you ready?"
Peter said, "Yes, sab"
sMoseS, are You ready?"
Moses, responded, "Yes, sah.'
Then commenced the shooting, and both
parties fired away until the last chamber
was discharged. The pistols were reload
ed, and the principals resumed their posi-
tiOns. The words OF command were re-
peated, and the firing recommended and
continued until Blair fell to the ground,
shot through both legs. The parties re-
turned to the city Immediately.

We have seen it stated that Gov.
Bramlette, who has ON former occasions
acted With the Democratic party, re-
fuses tosupport Capt. Jones, nominated
by the Democrats of Kentucky for
Clerk of the Court of Appeals Of that
State, because the nominee was a Con-
federate soldier, and this bit of news
has afforded great deal of consolation
to the Republican and the so-called
Independent journals. An incident
has come to our knowledge which may
explain this milk in the cocoanut in the
poss ession of the great Kentucky "sore-
head" A few weeks ago the Louisville
Commercial, the Republican organ in
Kentucky, had an editorial strongly
recommending DR.. w. P. Jones, of this
city, as the Republican candidate for
Governor of Tennessee. A copy of
the Commercial containing this article
was sent by Gov. Bramlette to Dem
ocratic paper IN this State, accompanied
by a letter requesting its publication in
that journal. Our Democratic con-
temporary could not see that it was
under any obligation TO aid RepubIi-
can aspirant for gubernatorial honors,
even at the request of Gov Bramlette,
and so the Commercials emphatic en-
dorsement of DIR. Jones found its way
into the dusty pigeon holes Of the Ten
nessee editors desk instead of the col
umns of his journal. This little incl
dent may 60 a good way toward eluci-
dating the reason why Gov. Bramlette
does not support the other Jones.

TAKING TINE BY THE FoRELoCK.

An esteemed friend in 0verton coun-
ty, thus closes a business letter of re-
cent date:
1--WE are resolved here to do better
politically than We did in 1872. In or
der to do so we intend to commence in
good time. Every one Of us will go to
the polls in November and vote for the
Democratic ticket, the whole ticket and
nothing but the full ticket. If every
true man in the State would do the
same the result would be such as to
make us invincible at home and carry
Joy to our friends everywhere. Thous-
ands of good Democrats neglected to
vote in 1872, but all viii be on hand In
1874. in this section"

CON CIR EssIONAL.
Both Houses Adjourn i'm Respect
to the Memory of Fillmore.
hENATF

WASHINGTON, March 9.-The chaplain
in his prayer besought divine providence
that now when Satan and his angels are
loose all over the land, no true man might
become disheartened or found faltering at
his post and that Almighty God would
guard the nation with his flaming swerd of
truth.
Mr.. Fent6n said intelligence of the death
of ex-President Fillmore had been received,
and though it might not be the time to
make suitable remarks he thought it appro-
pirate that the Senate should adjourn in
respect to the memory of the illus,riOus
dead. He therefore Moved the Senate adj
jotrn.
Mr.. Sherman inquired what precedent
there was for such action, and though he
was willing to follow any established pre-
cedent he did not think the example a wise
one. He entertained every respect for ex-
President Fillmore and his public services,
and would yield to no one in doing honor
to his memory.
The Chair said the Senate adjourned upon
the death of ex-President Buchanan.
Mr.. Anthony said Congress adjourned
upon the death of General Washington,
and it was upon that occasion that the
phrase "First in war, first in peace, and first
in the hearts of his countrymen,n was ut
tered.
Mr.. Fenton's motion was agreed 20, and
the Senate adjourned.
