of peace and of warm the pursuits OF

the shock of battle, he has always pre-
served proud and stainless reputation,
and now the envenomed shafts of Radical

..1laue the Republican party claims to be
applying christianity to government,
but we are not surprised at this, when we
ate informed in Holy Writ that even the
Devil quotes the Scriptures when it suits
his purposes, and especially when he
wishes to deceive. Mr.. Gregory evident
ly favors the principles advocated in the
Civil Rights Bill, that sum of villainies,
as Brownfow calls it.
Mr.. Gregory says be is in favor of the
repeal Of the conventional 10 per cent.
interest law. So are the Democratic can
didates tor Senator and Representative,
as they endorse the resolutions adopted
nv the conventions which nominated
them.
says: II am in favor of preserving the
faith and credit of the State and Nation
by paving off the entire Indebtedness of

strict rules of economy" This may
mean one thing and it may mean anoth-
er. 1t NAV mean reputation, or it may
not. He makes it depend on a very frail
IF. We may be over-suspectlng, but to
us there seems to be lurking Reputation
in that sentiment; or at least desire to
create such an impression on the mind OF
the reader.
Mr. Gregory cites Hayti and Liberia
as evidence that negroes can have good
republican governments, unalded by
white men We are told by travellers and
white men that these two nations are rap
idly relapsing into African barbarism.
In reply to the structures of one of our
Spring Hill correspondents, Mr.. Gregory
denies the allegation that he was descend
ed from "the best blood in the State, and
says his father was a Virginia overseer,
then a slave-owner, and finally a negro
trader" He repudiates, with evident
pride and scorn, that his ancestors were
of the "best blood"

MROnNS.

Maynard is in the habit of stating, from
day to day. that the debt of the State was
increased, from 1871 to 1873, five millions
of dollars, and refers to Comptroller
Pennebaker's reports as proof These
documents, which are now before us
show that there is not word of truth in
Maynard'S assertion. In his report, dated
Oct. l, 1870. Mr. Pennebaker puts the
debt of the State at $38 539, 802, and in
that dated Jan. l, 1873, the whole debt
without giving any credits for moneys
paid in, is placed at $43,868, 118. He,
however, gives on the same page the
amount of money that had been paid in
which, taken from the gross amount, with
ont these credits, shows the debt 10 nave
been, at that date, $3l, 1856, 1928, which
was a reduction, from the lst of October
1870, of Sc, 954, 499.
Mr.. Pennebaker says, in his same re
port, page ~: "The successful sale Of
these railroads has changed for the better
the phase of our monetary condition, anC
the debt heretofore &c unwieldy, can now
be easily handled.
1t is true that Mr.. Pennebaker, IN his
report of 1870, estimated the lnsolvent
railroads as worth over $l0,946, 900, bu
subsequent developments proved tina
they could not be sold for that much by
more than 100000. After they were
disposed of, he pronounced the sales
Successful" and that they clearly were
so, will iully appear when we state tina
they were costing the State, exclusive o
wear and tear, $500 per day, or $500, 5Ot
per annum,

MAYNARD as "A Fumder

In his speech at Knoxville, Saturday
night Governor Brown hit Maynard the
following terrible one, straight from the
shoulder:
There had been, up to the meeting OF
the 38th General Assembly, no opposition
to the funding of the State debt. That
Assembly passed the funding bill. Now
we are told that bill is Ubiquitous. The
Republicans in the Chattanooga conven-
ton. and its party leader, Horace May
nard, denounce it as 'iniquitous," They
denounce the administration of John c.
Brown, and especially mention the fund
ing bill, the assessment law and the Pen
itentiary lease do not believe there
was any ring connected with the pas
sage of that bill But if there was, let us
look at some of the men who were lobby
ing" for 1t in the capitol. The Governor
mentioned a number of leading Repnbli-
cans who were among the lobbyists for
the funding bill, including William Rule,
ofthe Knoxville Chronicle. There was
another Republican, one in Washington,
who wished to put the bill through. He
was very anxious about its being passed,
so anxious that he wrote letter to Judge
Houk urging him to vote for it Judge
Houk was undetermined, and Maynard
wished to convince him. SO very anx-
ious was Maynard about it, so afraid that
the crisis in the bill might arrive be-
fore his letter reached Judge Houk, that
he sent him a telegram from Wash
inrton urging your Representative to vote
for the funding bill That Republican
leader who wrote the letter and sent the
telegram to Judge Houk was HORACE
MAYNARD" Sensation

Maynard as a NiscegenaIiOn.
iSf
Memphis Appeal.

In the following extract, which we copy
from a circular issued IN East Tennessee
in 1866, Mr.. Maynard appears in his true
colors as an original abolltionist and
miscegenationist, willing to sink his race
irGthat of the negro for the sake of per-
petuating himself and his party in office.
1t is an extract from speech made by
the Radical candidate for governor at
Athens, on the twenty-frst of August,
1866, when he confessed:
Il am an aboiitionist, and have always
been one. | was accused of being one
when | first immigrated to the State
The charge was just; was full and run
ming over with abolitionism, but | denied
it for policy's sake. l am proud to-day
that | have been classed among the per
scented set, and deem it the highest COM
pliment to be denounced as such. And
tell you, gentlemen, that in a short
time all this complaint about negro equal
ity will be done away with. Some
nonths since, and it was said that the
negro would not be suffered to testify in
your courts--that his oath would not be
granted him. Rut how stand matters to-
day? He is not only permitted to testify
in your courts with IMMUNITY, but there is
every evidence that ne vii be on social
equality with the white man in your
State. Yes, gentlemen, an a short time
he ,ciU marry and intermarry an yOur
families. 1t is little Objectionable to-
day, but you will soon get over this, and
the prosecuted negro will be welcQme to
your parors. This will be the result of
the political and social changes of the
next few months"
We call particular attention to the
italcised lines in the above, wherein this
gentlemen, who now says he is opposed
to the civil rights bill, predicts joyfully
the mixture of the races which every
right-lniDded man is ANXIOUS to prevent.
White men, no matter what their poll
tics, have only to think of the intermar-
riage of the races, and of the negro being
made welcome to our parlors, to know
how TO vote for governor, and where to
consign Mr. Maynard. Not even the i'm
pudent negro ofSomerville who expressed
himself willing to ride to his bridle-bits in
blood to accomplish GiScegenation was
more pronounced for it than is Maynard
in this extract, nor any more insulting in
the words he employed to express it. We
ask the particular attention of all white
women to this extract, and beg that they
will make their fathers, brothers, sweet
hearts and husbands say whether or not
they are in favor of subjecting them to
the embraces of the lustful and brutal ne
gro, whose ideas of sex never rise above
the most brutal plane. MsERard by this
extract is committed incOntrOvertibly to

1t is frequently sneeringly asked, if l
am in favor of the amalgamation of the
two races. To SUCH will answer once
for all, that l am Bible reader; try as
far as can, to adopt moral precepts as
the rule of my life, and believe that every
thing that is absolutely necessary for
mans happiness in time or eternity is
there taught; do not believe that God in
manifesting his will to man would have
neglected to inform US upon any question
of vital importance to an inquirer after
truth. The Bible is silent upon this sub
ject. AS l think. therefore, we have
nothing but the law of conscience to con-
troll our actions in this matter, as such,
propose to let each indiUidudL SOIUe this
matter for themselves by lar of con-
science and fancy; HE WHO FANCIES
A BRUNETTE, let him enjoy the society
Of his brunette, and worship God under
his own vine and fig tree, according to the

a COIOred NEan Opposes the
Civil Rights Bill.

A colored man named W. I. Franklin,
of Franklin, Tenn, has written a sensible
letter to the Franklin Repielo, IN which
he takes strong ground against the Civil
Rights Bill. He says its passage would
be particularly detrimental to the interest
of the colored people. We quote a
paragraph: First, if the bill becomes a
law, from every appearance, the entire
public school system here in Tennessee,
aud other States, fails to peices, and
strife. malice, hatred, and what is foolish
" called negro equality, will unite all
the devils of that type" This is as true
as preaching. These are not the words
of a white man, but of a colored man,
who has sense enough to see the truth
and manliness enough to speak it. Hear
him: q say, don't believe that the
very men who offer the bill are willing to
come on equal terms with me, but all
thew care for me is to get my vote, so
they can get into Office, but we want men
into office that will make such laws as we
can live under. | wish that every colored
man thought about this civil rights ques.
ton as do, The day that that bill be-
comes a law, we poor colored men are
ruined. and | ask Congress in the nam
of high Heaven do not degrade US any
lower than we are. Congress had as well
put us into a yellow jackets nest"

Facts and Figures.

Gov. John G. Brown made an able
speech at Chattanooga last Friday night.
In reply to some queries propounded by
the editors of the Commercial, a Radical
paper of that place, he denied the
assertion that the convicts had been
leased at ten cents a day and the part of
them hired back again to work on the
capitol grounds. There was nothing
whatever paid for the convict labor done
on the capitol grounds. The peHitentiary
had been leased for $4,000 per annum,
and part consideration was the work OF
so many convicts upon the capitol
grounds.
As for the second supposition, that the
penitentiary had been leased at $4,000,
when the Inspectors in charge had made
a profit of 1874 900 per year, he asserted
that it was misconceived. The State
instead of making $4,000 under the
Inspectors had lost $36, OeO Under
Radical rule, the penitentiary had cost
over and above receipts, $Il4,000, That
is, that amount had been paid out by
Republican officials, and charged as
deficit on the penitentiary. He did not
pretend to say whether the money had
actually been expended on the peniten-
tiary. These figures he could substanti.
ate by official papers. He would not
make an assertion that he was not pre-
pared to prove These reports had been
made in the open Senate, and not Re-
publican raised his voice against them.
Under Radical rule, the penitentiary had,
in fiveyears, cost the State over $8,000-
900 while we are now making, under
Democratic rule, a clear profit of 1913, 900
per annum, and not 10000, as wrong
fully stated by the Commercial.
The sale of the Memphis and Clarks-
vile Railroad had been made before he
came into office, but, though not person
ally interested, he would say that by
decree rendered, it was sold to bona .fde
purchasers. Ii the editor had examined
the proper records, he would find all the
information he might desire. The Re-
publican party, with a recklessness I'M
exampled in history, had loaned over
100000 to railroads that were not rail
roads; roads that had no termini what
ever, and that were never meant to have.
The sale of the railroads had been
advised in the report of a Republican
Comptroller, Blackburn which set forth
that they entailed a yearly expense of
2,5OOO,0O0 He could say of the Dem
ocratic Administration, more than could
be said of any other, that not road, with
but one or tw" exceptions, had been sold
that could not be repurchased for the
same amount, and many for half the
amount.

Remember.

Two years ago Conservatives and DEM
ocrats staid away from the polls, and
thus lost six Congressman in the State
and at one time it was feared that Whit
thorne was also defeated. Let the
misfortunes of that year be a warning to
US, and induce everybody to go to the
polls, next Tuesday, Nov. Sd. Don't for
get the day, or fail to tell every person
you meet, as there IS some misapprehen-
sion in regard to the day. Send vehicles
