Since Tennessee was rescued from
the negroes and their white masters,
she has reduced the State debt f'om
forty-three millions To twenty two mil
lions. and increased in wealth and pop
ulation. The same causes produce the
same effects. Should Shelby pass I'M
der the control of negroes on Thurs
day next, the same reasons that pre-
vent emigration to South Carolina and
Louisiana Will prevent an increase IN
the population of Shelby county. Tax
es would be increased; we would have
negro juries land negro officers IN
every county Office. and the whites, BIKE
the old citizens Of the negro-cursed
States, would seek new homes, free
from the curse of negro rule. Negro
rule in Shelby county will retard the
growth of Memphis, as we have al
ready show that emigration shuns, as
it would plague, communities govern
ed by ignorant negroes and carpet-bag-
gers, who have ruined wherever they
ruled. To prevent this calamity, the
white people of Shelby county have
united, and on next Thursday they
must save this county, this city and
themselves, from the blight of negro
rule.

AID rHr RACE rssrr.

The resolutions Of the Alabama
Democratic State Convention of Ala
bama, which met in Montgomery last
week, aresvery distinct as to the race
issue. While insisting that it has been
forced upon the people by the negroes
and Radicals, the platform has the tone
of a defensive policy, and is in truth of
temperate character, however aggres-
sive or immoderate it may appear to
persons not so situated, or so made up,
as to appreciate the real interests Of
the people of Southern State. Hon.
j. l.. Pugh, the chairman of the con-
vention, in his inaugural address, said:
The campaign for which we are pre-
pairing, will be no ordinary struggle
for preference by the two great parties
that rival each other in capacity, intel
hgence and honesty. but undisguised
and stript to the naked Il ruth, it will be
contest for political power by two
distinct classes of our citizens between
hnObA I'LL bt III yum iopn
respect to any Of the essential qualifi-
cations for understanding the impor-
tant interests of the State and wisely
administering State government.
Although we deprecate the character
this contest will manifestly assume, and
while we must not permit any violent
or insulting interference with freedom
of opinion and freedom of speech, but
allow every citizen to enjoy unmolested
the full measure of his civil rights, as
long as he does so according TO law,
and without disturbing the social
status of the two races, it is equally our
plain duty to ourselves to declare I'M
deniable truths, and like men to meet
great public questions in the shape
they have been forced upon the country
by our political opponents.
We do not think that the situation
in Davidson and nearly every other
county throughout Middle and West
Tennessee could be better described
than by the above language.

HIGH-ToNED opposition terrace anita
gonism-or, in plain terms, voting for
the White Mans ticket instead Of the
Black-and- Tan candidates is confined
almost exclusively to Davidson county.
Our exchanges of this week from
almost every section of the State bris-
tie all over with such appeals as: Vote
the Democratic and Conservative
ticket, and no scratching This is a
white mans fght"' Take no Black
and-Tan in yours On election day.
"The issue has been forced upon us;
either the white man OF the negro must
rule in Tennessee Let every white
man who is against the Civil Rights
iufamy vote the straight ticket.
sKiIl the sum Of villainies' now, and
YOU will have no trouble with it in

This feeling is not confnedto David

every community where the negro
voters are sufficiently numerous tc
serve the purposes of renegade white
men who are after Office.

THIS is what nearly four hundred
Irish citizens Of Vicksburg have to say
about the renegade, Martin Keary,
who went back on his race and is now
the negro candidate for Mayor Of that
city:
When Martin Keary cspoused the
cause. and became the advocate and
standard bearer Of negro rule, he for
feited all claims he might have had
lIpon the Irish race Irishmen are
white men, proud of their ancestry and
manhood, and have ever held IN scorn
and contempt what is base and merce-
nary. As Irishmen. we hurl back with
Indignation the insulting reflection at
tempted upon our nauTe, when We are
asked to indorse and support the IN
famous doctrines ennuciated by Martin
Keary, Frank Gallagher, Davenport
and others. We blush with shame TO
know that Irishmen should sink 50 low,
and that there are any So abandoned to
all honor, decency and those noble IN
stincts common to the race, who would
blur the proud cscutcheon Of their
country. and cause their coUntrymen
u bow their heads with shame and
sorrow.
Has Kcary's case no parallel IN
Nashville?

THE NelC York Tribune tells a bit
of stern truth about the third term
movement in the South. 1t says of
Kemper, Herbert, Lochrane and others
who have been playing into Grants
hand:
Most of these men have no sympa-
thy and no admiration for Gen. Grant.
They are not unacquainted with the
history of the last five years. They
know how far he has been responsible
for the wretched decentralization into
which the political life of nearly all the
Southern States has fallen. They
know that If in one or two, as in Vir-
ginia, for instance, there still exists
some security for life and property,
some shadow of self government, it is
due not TO Gen. Grant, but to a per-
sistent, laboTiouS, and successful oppO-
sition to him and his administration.
In Louisiana it is his hand which has
been put to the throat Of every revolt
of the manhood of the State
against its thievish rulers. 1t is his
favor and protection which have given
Casey and Durell and Kellogg their
Will Of the Commonwealth. He alone
has made Powell Clayton IN Arkansas
50 strong for evil. When the tax
payers of South Carolina came up to
ask some cOuntenance and support IN
the struggle they had resolved to make
against robbers who have rendered the
State bankrupt and almost unInhabl-
table. Gen Grant was induced by such
confcdcrates Of the ring as Patterson
and Sawyer to turn the taxpayers out
of the Executive mansion and send
them back with no encouragement.
These things are perfectly well known
in Richmond and Charleston and New
Orleans. Yet reputable men in all of
