The Rush to Kansas & Colorado.

The indications are that the rush to Kan

ever. The shortest way to reach the far west
is through st. Louis, the great Mississippi
Valley City Of over 450 900 inhabitants, and
thence West over the st. Louis, Kansas City
and Northern Short Line, which reaches all
the great land grants in the west, and runs
six fast Express trains, two more than any
other road between the Nj ssissipps and the
Missouri rivers. This road, in the last two
years, has expended over two million dollars,
besides earnings, in extraordinary improve
ments Of railway, in relaying its line with
tho best quality Of new steel and iron rails,
en- broad new ties, and in passenger equip
ment, having substituted for ordinary cars
new reclining chair coaches, with every APP
pliance for comfort and safety, being elegant

Omr State SENATOR.

Most of our readers will rejoice at the
result of the late Lawrenceburg Con-
vention-nOt alone because a Giles coun-
ty man received the nomination, nor
yet because it was given to him with
such perfect unanimity, but because
such good feeling prevailed throughout
its entire deliberations, and because it
has put forth so able and distinguished
n gentleman for the position. The Hon.
Il. b. Logan, of Pulaski, was nominated
by acclamation without single ballot,
and viii sail into the State Senate with
the largest majority ever given Il candi-
date in the 10th district. Judge Logan
is eminently qualified for the position.
Self-dependent, bold, cultivated, learned
in the law, and practiced in the forum,
he can reflect honor upon his constitu-
onoy in the Legislative Halls of the
State. Our ticket is now complete for
the State Legislature, and we point to II
with pride and pleasure. Logan for
Senator, DR.. Bowers for Floater, and DR.
Harwoll for Representative proper!
They have been chosen for their qualifi.
eatioDs and merit, and the people who
created them candidates will sustain
them at the polls. They are of the peo-
pie, with the people, for the people ant
will serve the people.

MAYNARD FOR COVER
NOR.
Chattanooga Nominate him
by AccIamatiOn.

The State Convention of the radical
party met at Chattanooga Wednesday,
10th inst. a special to the Union and
American, says that in the caucuses
some of the Africans said Civil Rights
was a Republican measure, and if white
men could not take it, they had better
leave the party. Much dissatisfaction
prevailed. Many denounced privately
the convention as gotten up by office
holders in the interest of Maynard, and
declared that it would be the ruin of
the party.
permanent organization was effect
ed in the afternoon, with II. II. Harri-
son as President. The committee on
Resolutions remained out from three
to six p. NJ. Their report lodged the
Civil Rights Bill. After efforts by Ar
nell, w. 5. Smith and some cOIored
brothers to get straight expression on
the Civil Rights Bill, an adjournment
was had till after supper.
On reassembling at Z: 30 p. NJ, the fol-
| lowing compromise was adopted under
| the previous question, against the re-
| monstrance of Africans on clear vote OF
! white vs.. black:
| We are in favor of the full and equal
enjoyment of accommodations, advan-
tages, rights and privileges by all citi-
zens, and other persons within the jul
risdiction of the United States, without
regard to race, creed or color, and at the
same time we deem it unnecessary and
unwise to attempt, by Congressional
| legislation or otherwise, to compel, as
| between such races, creeds or colors, the
joint exercise of such accommodations,
advantages, rights or privileges, but we
recognize the principle which is older
than our constitutions, that every mans
house is his castle, and that under our
| Government every citizen, white or
black, has the right to bear arms in con-
tormity to law, and to express his opin-
ions without interference or mOlesta-
tions.
The other resolutions favor free Ma
! tional banking, return to specie pay
ment, oppose paying Torbett issue, pay
ment of the public debt, denOunces the
! funding and assessment bills, endorses
! free schools, ask for improvement of the
mouth of the Mississippi and naviga-
BILE rivers of Tennessee, donouncc
Browns administration for inefliciency
and as disastrous in the extreme, and
request all citizens to rally to the Re
publican party.
Horace Maynard was then nominated
by reclamation. In speech, accepting
the nomination, he endorsed the Civil
Rights Bill fully; claimed that it did
not mean mixed schools, except those
supported by the United States; said
better, however, to have said nothing
about schools, rs it was premature; at
tackled the financial plank in the Demo
cratic platform, and defend the national
bank system; denounced Outrages, and
limited that Brown ought to have done
more, but did not charge it; and an
nOunced that he would make a thorough
canvass of the State.
East Tennessee Republicans are dis
gusted. They say the party is bullied
they want no nomination. Maynard's
views on Civil Rights make it doubtful
If the Republicans can carry single
district in East Tennessee.
