and try to separate saecharine tomatoes
from heep of peeled potatoes, without
dyeing or singeing the ignitible queue
which he wore, or becoming paralyzed
with hemOrrhage. Lifting her eyes to
the ceiling of the cupola Of the Capitol to
conceal her unparalleled embarrassment
making an awkward courtesy, aud not
harrassing him with mysffying, rarefying,

zingly answered There is .atabte and

Yesterday morning an Cd lady, who

re The Voters Of washington
County.

FELLow-CITHENs: A regular Com
vention of the Republican party of Wash
ington county, having of its own vol.ion,
unsolicited and uninhuenced by either me
or my friends conferred upon mo the
honor of a nomination as candidate to
represent the county in the Lower House
of the next General Assembly Of Tens
essee, | take this method of announce
ing my acceptance of the same, and l
will also proceed to show in as brief a
manner as possible the line OF policy that
| shall pursue with reference to State
Leg Station in which if elected l shah he
called upon to participate.
In the first place, as is we'll known, a
contest has been going on in the country
between laber aud capital for several
years, causing the representatives of each
to organize themselves into separate
leagues or combinations for the purpose
of influencing Legislation in behalf of
their respective interests. Ms laboring
ing man my sympathics 90 naturally with
my fellow-laborers and if elected | stall
endeavor so far as l am able to see that
their interests are properly cared for.
While shall feel it nv first duty to
look after the interest of the laboring man
and to see that he does not suffer by any
legislation that may take place whilO am
member Of the General Assembly, l
would not be understood as proposing to
legislate for one class to the prejudice of
another, on the contrary it shall be my
purpose to faithfully represent all classes
OF my constituents and to prevent as far
as possible any disposition or attempt of
one class to eucroach upon the rights or
privileges Of another.
The pll important question Of taxation
which is now agitating the mind of every
taxpayer in the State shall receive my
most earnest and assitluaus attention, and
as there are many useless Offices in the
State the expenses of which tend to
swell che volume Of taxes to an enormous
degree, | shall favor such legislation as
will tend to abolish such of them as can
be dispensed with, without prejudice ito
the public interest.
Believing that the future prosperity Of
our common country depends in a great
degree upon the increase of intelligence
among the masses, | shall favor the es-
tablishmeni Of liberal and cornprehen-
ave State system of publio instruction at
the earliest possible moment. While in NV
opinion the present system falls far short
Of meeting the requirements of the peo,
pie, | would at the same time advise ev>
cry one to ose II to the best possible .ad.

proved upur.
