ARE THEY SINCERE ?

If the Democrats of Tennessee are
sincere in their opposition to the Civil
Rights Bill, they now have an oppor-
tunity to show il. In November the
people of Tennessee will be called up
on to elect Senators and Representa-
tives to the Legislature. In January
next, that Legislature will meet at the
capital of the State and among 9TH
er things will elect United
States Senator. Now, if the Demo-
cratic party is sincere in it's opposition
to Civil Rights, let Senator Brownlow
be reelected to the place he has so
honorably filed, and in which he has
so firmly and honestly reflected the
will of his constituents on all national
questions. No man in the Union has
fought the Civil Rights Bill so effect
lively as he. His opposition is bold and
unequivocal. He can do more in the
Senate to prevent the passage of the
odious measure, than all the Democratic
politicians in the State combined. The
reason for this is plain. When the
negroes were emancipsted. and when
they were clothed with the right of
suffrage when the 18th, l4th and 18th
Amendments were being discussed,
Governor Brown, General Bate, An
drew Johnson, Ishsm G.. Harris and
others, who are spoken of for a seat in
the Senate, said that such measures
would bring about an immediate war
OF races. Senator Brownlow took
the opposite view. Time has dem
onstrated that he told the truth,
and that the others were in error.
Having erred so manifestly, so palpa-
bly, and so Enthusiastically once, there
is danger that If they should go to the
Senate and repeat their stories about a
war Of races and all its attendant hor-
rors, in case the Civil Rights Bill
should become law that their former
false declarations would be called I'm
and their statements now made, called
In question. Not so with Senator
Brownlow. His representations as to
the effect Of the passage of the Con-
stitutional amedments have been veri-
fed. His predictions have been full.
filled. He said that notwithstanding
the Democrats were opposing the right
OF the negro to vote, when he was
given the right, they would be amongst
the most enthusiastic in their efforts to
obtain his vote for themselves and
their friends. Now he thinks the Civil
Rights Bill, as it passed the Senate, is
going too far, and says so in the strong
est terms. His letters originally pub
lished in the CHRONICLE have attract
ed attention from Maine to California,
and as we say above, there is no man
In the United States who has 80 effec-
lively fought this unpopular measure
as he.
Now let the people of the State
show their appreciation of he services,
by re'electing him TO the Senate. He
is sound on the Civil Rights question.
Besides, he is honest, firm, unfiinch-
ing, and will do what he believes to
be his duty upon all occasions. What
say our Democratic friends 10 such a
proposition ?

THE REPUBLICAN VOTE.

The vote Of Thursday was one Of the
largest polled in Knox county for
many years. The vote of Gossett for
Sheriff, in 1872 was 2,SO2. His vote
Thursday, was 2,547, or only 255 less
than two years ago. Mr.. McGufey's
vote was 2,74s, or but "a less than Cos
setts vote. We are sure there is moth,

FROM conversations we have had
with divers Republicans from the
country within few days past, we
are satisfied that the efforts of self.
ish clique of exotic politicians in this
place are beginning to be appreciated
In the recent county elections, they
protested friendship to the Republican
candidates, but never allowed an OPP
portunity to pass, when they could
stab them in the dark. Although they
carried on a guerilla warfare, their
identity is fully established and they
will receive their reward.

In Bern township, Pennsylvania,
the other day, n little girl five years of
age, with her brother eight years of
age, was crossing over a small bridge,
when one OF the boards gave way, and
the little girl fell through. Her brother
caught hold Of her, and both cried for
assistance. The little fellow held on as
long as he could, and then remrked,
" l am getting tired can't hold on
much longer" The little girl replied,
" Let me drop" and, no one coming to
their relief, he was compelled to do so,
and she fell into the canal from which
her dead body was soon after recovered,

We have not had the pleasure of at.
tending any of the sessions of the
Teachers Institute which has been in
session here this week, but judging
from the published reports and re-
marks made by those who have at.
tended, we judge that it has been a de-
cided success. We have heard the es-
says, criticisms and lectures spoken OF
In very fiattering terms, and the teach
ers seem to evince an interest in the
proceedings, which shows that they
mean to improve the occasion and
make it one of benefit to them.
Under our school system, aud under
the circumstances surrounding us.
something of this kind is absolutely
necessary. One Of the greatest draw
backs in the way of the
success of common schools in
this State is the difficulty
of procuring first rate teachers.
This is especially true, as applied to
the more sparsely populated districts.
There are persons who for the salary
paid teachers, will offer their services
in that behalf, who are entirely unfit
for the important trust committed to
their keeping. 1t is important to have
the very best teachers that can be pro-
cured. These Institutes, if properly
conducted, will do much towards Civ
ing instruction to teachers, relative to
the best modes of giving instruction to
their pupils. We congratulate the
friends of education upon the success
full opening of the Institutes, and trust
that they will increase in interest and
in their power for doing good.

THOUSANDS of Republicans voted
against the so-called Republican ticket
because OF its very anti-Republican or
igin and aims.
Inc above letter was written from
Knoxville to Loudon paper. Its
spirit betrays its origin. The facts
stated above, unfortunately, do not
sustain the writer in his charges. In
the first place the Republican ticket
had its origin" in this way. The
several Republican candidates of their
own motion called upon the Executive
Committee of the Republican party to
arbitrate between them and say who
should stand for the various offices.
Captain John Harris and Mr..
Murphy and Mr.. McGuffey
were chosen by BALLOT, having oppo.
nents. Mr.. Gossett had no opposition,
and therefore was unanimously en-
dorsed. Ifhe had no opposition where
was the ring ?" If he was distaste-
full to thousands Of Republicans, -
why did he not have opposition from
the Committee, which in the main
was composed Of as good men and Re-
publicans as the party affords. The
attempt to read these candidates and
Committeeman out of the Republican
party comes with bad grace
from the windmill at Loudon.
All these men are so called Repub.
llcans" and their candidacy had
"anti-Republican origin" says the
correspondent We should like these
men to compare records with the
writer and his friends. He saws
" thousands Of Republicans voted
against the so-called Republican
ticket" To show the malice and igno.
rance OF this writer, it is only neces-
sary to say that Mr.. Gossett, against
whom his shafts are specially directed,
lost but 255 Republican votes from
MS vote Of two years ago. The Re

IN almost every State exchang one
takes up now, the eye is greeted with
the glaring head-line, "a white wife
for every negro" This may suit the
palate of certain class of readers, but
we confess we don't like it, 1t is lust
little questionable in taste if not in
propriety. The white ladies of our
country are not actively in politics
just now, or candidates for office, and
we think 1T would be as well to not
drag them into our political contro.
versies.-NdShUiiLe Banner DEM.
Not since the close of the war have
our Southern exchanges been so filled
with report Of trouble between whites
and blacks. 1t is but the legitimate out
growth of the outrageous misrepresen-
taions of the Civil Rights Bill put
forth by Democratic papers tor the
purpose of influencing local elections.
Thousands of voters throughout the
State believe to-day that the Civ
il Rights Bill, if a law, would
compel their daughters to mar
ry niggers." In the recent can
vass in this county even worse misrep-
reservations than that were put forth.
The Press and Herald did its part of
the work in shameless, unblushing w.
ing about the position of Republicans
upon this question, and the paid tools
of the managers went out in the coun-
ty stuffing the people who do not read
papers, full Of such lies as above stated.
No wonder that trace prejudices "
run high, and that ignorant, excitable
men are led to violence and crime.
The responsibility for this condition
of affairs can easily be placed.

The people of Memphis were
thrown into Juror of excitment, on
Friday, by the intelligence that a riot
had taken place at Somerville, Fayette
county, and that negroes were march
ing on the town, with view to burn
ing it. A special train was made up
at Memphis, and about three hundred
men dispatched post haste to the scene
Of the alleged riot. They arrived in
due season and found everything
quiet, and no evidence that the ne
groes intended anything of the kind as
alleged.
The foundation for the story was.
Judge Reeve and his son, the sheriff
elect of the county, both Republicans.
undertook to arrest man by the
name of Burton, who was on the
streets armed with pistols and double
barrelled shot gun. He refused to be
arrested, when he was fired upon. The
fire was returned by several citizens
from adjacent windows and by Burton.
Two sons of Judge Reeves were NOR
tally wounded, and the Judge himself
seriously. Burton was also mortally
wounded. 1t was an unfortunate cir.
cumstance, and when the facts are
fully known, we doubt not it will be

ing. tyrannical, spirit of West Tennes>

meeting opposition by appealing to hu.

by brute force.
