Some days ago a statement appeared
in this paper regarding the troubles in
Gibson county, written up from infor-
nation received from Gov. John c..
Brown uponhis ~arrivalin this cityfrom
the scene of the recent outrages. The
statement was made up from a desul-
tory conversation between several per-
| sOns. and written from memory. Isaac
Il. Hawkins, of Huntington, Tenn,
has inquired of Gov. Brown whether
he stated that he believed any part of
the recent masked murderers we're
composed of Hawkins Federal guer-
illas, and the Governor has replied that
he believed the Trenton jail-breakers
were chiefly reckless and inconsider-
ate men. Also that he never men,
toned Hawkins men in connection
with the Trenton jail breakers, and
that the newspapers must have con-
founded what others said with what he
said. The Governor is correct, and as
before mentioned, the reference to
Hawkins was made in a general sense
by others. Many Of these men of
Hawkins command, as well as of 9TH
ers who served on both the Confederate
and Federal sides during the late civil
war, roAmed in squads over the region
Of country lying east of the Tennes-
see river, and the ~atrOcious deeds they
committed were numerous. 1t was
generally when they were absent from
their regular conn alds, either IN
furlOugh OF away without proper
leave, that their behavior was
worst. Whether they were ur.
der proper control or not, how
ever, they were a terror to the good
people of that entire region, and a de-
tailed chapter Of their acts would make
a long story Of horrors. 1t was some
Of the remnants of these predatory
bands of bad men that were pursued 10
the death when Bud Evans, and his
three kinsmen Of the same name, with
fourteen others, We're captured and ex-
ecuted IN 1868, audit was doubtless the
same class who figured in the recent
outrages. There may not have been
any of Hawkins men In the gang, but a
part of that command was raised in the
section named, and they have been
credited with so many bad deeds that
the recent reference will not harm
them.

THE Fayetteville Express of the 18th
inst. relates this incident:
On the first Monday Of this month,
a Iumor gained pretty extensive circu-
latiOn IN this county that a party Of in
solent negroes went to Perkins mill,
twelve miles below Fayetteville, and
demanded meal and flour, refusing to
pay for either. Being refused by the
employees Of the mill, it was asserted
that they attempted to obtain the ar
ticlcs mentioned by force, and a fight
ensued. Mr.. Perkins, being in town at
the time, promptly declared the report
false; Notwithstanding the fact that q
white man of the name of BOwden
vouched for its correctness and de-
clared that he (Bowden) was one Of
the chief actors IN the lively skirmish
that was said to have taken place. The
rumOr created great excitement until
Monday evening, when It was found to
be utterly false. Monday night, sew
eral sprightly professors Of moral
philosophy read Mr.. Bowden, the face.
tious author Of the canard, the beauti-
ful and pathetic story of Ananias and
Sapphira, and impressed it upon his
memory with about fifty lashos.
This Outrage viii not call for the
interposition Of the Federal authori-
ties. The United States Marshal with
a posse of soldiers will not be sent
into Lincoln county to hunt up and
arrest the "conspirators' engaged in
the outrage" because he upon whom
1t was Perpeorated was a white man;
but If he had been a negro We could
not have undertaken to answer for the
consequences.

LEA DECLINES.

We have received the following let
ter, which will be read with regret
throughout Davidson county:
TO the Union and American:
New LONDON, Conn, Sept. 10, 1S74-
1 am just informed by telegram that the
Democratic and Conservative Convention
has nominated me as one of the candidates
to represent Davidson county in the next
General Assembly.
l am profoundly sensible of this mark of
respect and confidence. 1t is with regret,
u%nmingled, however, with any hesitation,
that 1 feel compelled by an imperative
sense of duty. TO decline the nomination.
1 do so with less Seluctance because l know
there are many gentlemen whose situation
is such that without neglecting previously
assumed duties, they can serve the people
as well or better than l. at any sacrifice,
wen the necessity apparent, 1 should not
refuse to give my time and all Of the little
ability that possess to the service of my
country, and by those who are acquainted
with the incidents Of my comparatively
quiet and retired life, it will be remem-
bered that heretofore 1 have never failed
cordially and cheerfully to respond when
any demands were made upon Inc by the
people. l beg them, therefore, to be assured
that it is from no insensibility tothe honor
nor from any indisposition TO perform my
part of public duty, that l decline the NOM
nation. Other reasons entirely influence
my conduct.
As L have not seen any newspaper con-
tanning the proceedings of the convention,
/ am in ignorance as 10 what officer or COM
mittee this note of d~eclination should be
addressed. l shall, therefore, thank you to
print the communication, in order that the
proper authority may adopt the necessary
means to secure the nomination of another
candidate.
Iagain express my gratitude for this ev-
idence of regard on the part of my fellow
citizens.
The names on the ticket Nominated COM
mand universal respect, and 1 shall give to
it Almost cordial support.
Very respectfully, JOIN NJ. LEA.
As Judge LEAFS reas ons appear to b
entirely of a private nature, we refrain
from commenting on his declnation
further than to express our sense Of
the misfortune which Davidso n county
has sustained in not having been for
tunate enough to secure his services as
one of her Representatives. In what
ever way his successor may be desig-
mated, great prudence and a due re-
gard for the public interest VIII be re-
quired in making the selection. When
good men decline, we must put good
men in their place.

THE Republican State Convention
had the impudence to denounce what IT
waspleasedt to term "theiniquitousFun Fund
ing bill passed by the late Democratic
Legislature" 1t is a piece of Moon
sistency for which we were scarcelypre-
pared. The Republican candidate for
Governor two years ago advocatedfrom
Shelby to Carter the funding of the
State debt, and hewas a prominent and
influential lobbyist here during the
session of the Legislature IN securing
the passage of the Funding bill, while
a majority Of the Republican members
Of the Legislature voted for the bill
which without their votes could not
have passed.

MAYNARD is reported IN his speech
accepting the nomination for Governor,
as saying that "he thought we had
lived too long inthe woods to get scared
at such an owl as the Civil Rights ques-
ton" Referring to the fact that the
Democrats had carried the State in the
August election by from 50,0OOto 10000
majority, Senator Brownlow says:
Even this large majority does not ex-
press the bitter hostility with which the
Civil Cights bill is regarded by the en-
tire white population of the
State" and that "had the Republican
candidates in our election declared for
the Civil Rights bill, the Democratic
majority would not have been less than
10000" 1t thus appears that the
people of Tennessee have been consid-
erably frightened at the appearance of
Maynarfs owl.

ALTHOUGH the Republican State
Convention had lodged the Civil
Rights issue in the platform, Maynard
could not let the occasion of accepting
the nomination for the Governorship
pass without saying a good word in
behalf Of mixed schools. We
quote from the Chattanooga
Commercials report: He re-
ferred to the naval academy at Annap-
oils, and the military academy at West
Point. Both were mixed schools, and
yet they were very popular even among
Democrats. He had received a great
many letters from all parts of the
State, some from the mothers and sis
tiers of boys who want to go to these
mixed schools. Somehow the niggers
didn't smell there like they do in the

ALL indications point to the fact
that the people Of Louisiana would in
initely prefer military rule to Kel-
logg's restoration, and on this point
the Chicago Times remarks with a de-
gree Of good sense somewhat rare in
that sensational Journal:
Far easier, far more economical and
far better for the well-being Of Louisi-
n would it be b set up in that dem
agogue-cursed State a military govern
ment. That the people would much
prefer "A military dcspotism to a
restoration Of the Kellogg usurpation
admits of no doubt. There IS. indeed.
much reason to believe that the
revolution against the Kellogg
usurpation was inaugurated with
the full expectation of get ing
only a military government in its stead.
At all events, If the Washington gov
ernment shall interfere in the matter
at all, the substitution of a military
government IN the placed o. the Kellogg
usurpation is the shape, which, it is to
be hoped, the interference viii take.

MAYNARD said in his speech accept
ing the Republican nomination for
Governor, that there had been "a great
deal of foolish and malicious preju-
Dice created about the Civil Rights
question. Senator Brownlow, however,
declares that "it is no exaggeration to
say that the very name Republican
has become Odious with thousands of
the adherents Of hat party because of
this attempt to compel the co-educa-
ton Of the races" which he contends
the Civil Rights bill provides for.
