The unanimity with which they wade
into the poor man. How they must fear
him. How favorable must appear the
chances for his election, to cause the
orcans of his enemies to rear, plunge,
and resort to all kinds of desperate ex- Z
psdients, in the hope that by some IN Z
looked for contingency it is possible that !
he may be beaten. Among other expe- {
dents, that in its disparing agony the
Chronicle resorts to, is pretending to
see and to foment the signs Of disafiec-
ton in the Republican party. In the
Chronicles wish is father to the
thought" 1t would doubles welcome
with Joy the signs Of disagreement and
discord in the Republican ranks, but for
that event the Chronicle will look in
vain. Nothing but bitter disappoint-
ment will be the fruits of its eager
search. The Senatorial contest is really
narrowed down to contest between
Sharon and Williams; between union
and secession-nothing more and moth
ing less. The Republicans see this, and
thoroughly realize the situation, and are
already marshaling their forces. No
doubt there have been some chickering's
and Disbursements. They always will
occur in every political party. But Re-
publican hosts throughout the state
readily recognize that the day for indul-
gence in soreheadness, nursing OF per-
sonsl grievances, etc, has gone by. All
such matters must be laid aside, for the
real work of the party as political or
ganization, is now before it. We feel
certain that right nobly will the members
of the party respond to the call. In
fact, there can scarcely be said to be q
choice in the matter. On one side, we
have man tried, steady and true; the
friend and supporter of the Union and Of
the State; the real poor mans friend, for

what has he done for the State? Did he
come forward at the time when our great
and only industry was languishing
for want OF confidence, of means to prose-

breach and by his much needed aelp
stem the tide of misfortune until conf

prosperous? Certainly not. Williams
was counting and holding his little hoard
but never raised a hand or periled his
means in order to shown his own faith
in the great mineral resources of tn
