Politics in Tennessee and MaSsachu-
setss-The ssunton. Barbour Contest.

Especial dispatch TO the Baltimore SUM-
WAsHINGToH. August 27.-Some interest
ing information concerning political affairs
in Tennessee aud Massachusetts has been re-
ceived here to-day. In Tennessee, the diff
ference existing between the johnson and
anti.Johnson wings Of the Democracy, ap-
pear to have been harmopiou>ly settled. The
next Legislature will be largely Democratic,
and it is looked upon as almost certain that
eX.President Andrew johnson will be elect
ed to the seat in the Senate now filled by his
most bitter enemy, Parson Brownow.
In Massachusetts local diSsenSions have
very much divided the Radical party. Pro.
mnent among the causes Of weakness are
the feuds growing out Of the Butler fight,
and the liquor question. The seventy thou
sand Radical majority Of Massachusetts q
few years ago made the contingency Of a De-
mocrauc success appear impossible. But adj
vices now indicate that the party is so much
demoraiZed through the causes mentioned
above, and further through the refusal Of so
many Of its old members to run again for
Congress. that the Democrats have great
hopes of electing their Governor and two or
three members OF Congress, and perhaps
even securing Democratic senator to nil the
seat of Mr.. Sumner.
General Eppa Hunton, who has just been
renominated for Congress from the Eighth
Virginia District, was in this city to- day.
He bas not the least doubt Of his reelection,
for he was Informed by his friends that at
least three-fourths of the delegates present
would have voted for him even if Dir.
Barbour had permitted his name to come
before the Convention. The only delegates
who retired were those from Culpeper. Mr.
Barbour's own county. The result was that
Mr. Barbour was not placed in nomina
ton at all, and hence Mr. Hunton was nom
mated unanimously. The boilers carry very
little influence with them, and will not at
tempt another nomination. If Mr.. Barbour
runs at all it will be as an independent can
Gilatc.

A Runaway Team Struck by Rail-
road Train.
Especial telegram to the Dispatch.l


GoRDoNsvILLE, VA, August 2S.-A four
horse team became frightened at the APP
proach of the regular Chesapeake and Ohio
east-bound freight train, due here at $50
this 2. H., and ran away up the street. Just
as the team was crossing the railroad in front
of the telegraph office, the engine struck the
horses, cutting the fore leg of one entirely
off, and demolishing the wagon. The driver,
white mau, and his little son were in the
wagon at the time, and were buried in the
wreck. Strange to say, both were taken out
uuinjured. The crippled horse Was after
wards shot.

That Grant will be able to obtain noml-
nation by his party for u third term, If he
makes up his mind thereto, we have little
doubt. In the first place public sentiment
in the Republican party is not concentrated
on any other candidate. In the second and
altogether more important place, he holds
the tremendous lever of the Federal patron
age-Syracuse Courier (DemocraD.
Our national politics never stood in such
peril of being captured in all quarters by
compact ring of corruptionists. What the
people need and must have at Washington
is body of sturdy, inflexibly honest men,
bers, with the courage to tell the truth, no
matter who is hurt by ii, and with the
sbrewdness to watch and outwit the Treasury
thieves Cincinnati Commercial (Independ-
enD.
The whole truth Of The matter is that the
so.called Democratic party always was split
from end to end, not only on questions OF
finance, but on every other political question
that ever arose. 1t never was anything but
an organized contradiction, facing both ways
on every question, and being sail things to
all men," Since the war the Republican
party has been in the same bad way CHI
cago Times independently.
Every day makes it more aud more uncer-
tain what the real principles OF modern De-
mocracy are They are one thingin one sec
ton of the country, and another thing every.
where else. Against this divided Democ-
racy which is bandyiog epthets and feeling
for each Others throat, the Republicans pre-
sent united front, with sound principles 10
inspire them and good candidates to iead
them Utica Herald tRepubhcan).
The mass of coiored people of the South
have learned through very bitter experience
that they cannot safely appeal to violence,
and they are not very likely to do 1t; and
after while the public will learn that there
is no great need for excitement over such
news as we have received lately from Austin
and SomeryIlIe, and that the facts may be
safely waited for before going of into any
excess of sympathetic passion, -LoassDalle
Comm ercial (Repu 'kcan(
General Grant may veto the ciyil-rigbts
bill, and by the act make himself omnipotent
with the conservatism Of the country. de
may sign it, precipitate war OF races at Inc
South, produce the necessity for martial law,
and force himself on the Radicals. In either
event he will be in the field for third term.
A third term is revolution. The cigl'rigats
bill is war of races. Between The two the
outh--despairing OF republican govern
ment,-w0nld take Grant, the devil "or any
other man." To this extent We are chafgea-
bic with advocating" third term. - Lostls'
