The time fixed for the reception of the common
people was O'clock. Fifteen minutes before that
hour the President and Marshal Sharpe retired for
refreshments and rest. In the meanwhile our
friends of curbstone mention were banging the
outer gates snd the knights Of the cIab were Going
some tall talking to those same people to keep
them from being too pressing in their demands
For admittance. The policemen admitted the fact
that they ought TO be allowed inside, but they ad-
mitted nothing else. Finally, however, word
reached the outer gates that the upwashed could
enter, and the unwashec were not long in showing
their appreciation Of the privilege. Up the walk
they came In twos, threes squads, companies and
platoons, did these people, all smiling when they
thought Of that mighty grip they were about to
Gfve the Presidential hand. Some smiled In
diabolical manner, as II they felt that oppoytu-
nity TO have revenge on the President FOR not
shaking hands oftener was at hand. They res
ssned that . presidential shake, like Christmas
comes but once year, and they were bound to
ectoy themselves while it lasted. Others again
smiled blandly, as il debating with themselves
whether their dignity ought TO permit them 70
notice their common friends when they returned
home after having shaken hands with the ruler
Of the land. A few did not smile af all, but these
belonged TO that large class who do everything
becauSe everybody else does, and not from the fun
Of the thing ct all. Il was n curious crowd, in
deed in more senses than one.

THE TRADE OF CANADA.

Facts and figures of an official character in
relation to the trade and commerce of Canada
show them to be in most prosperous condi-
ton. Fiscal returns for the year ending June
80, 1873, exhibit an increase in the total COM
MERGE Of no less than $26 ,s4S ,34s over the pre-
vious year. This Is q remarkable advance for
a country Of less population than that of the
State of New York. The exports amounted to
500 ,810, 57S, aud the imports to St26, 5S7 ,523
The excess of imports over exports is 435, 975,
$50. The Canadian lumber trade with South
America is also increasing. The exports Of
lumber to all countries were seemingly larger
last year than ever before, and were more than
double those OF 1871. It is worthy of note
that SO Norwegian vessels, of 100, 736 aggre-
gate tonnage, loaded 1t seven ports Of the

The Colored People.

a good many colored people Of this and
the adjoining counties are talking of EN-
igrating to some one of the Western
State or Territories where there is pub
lie land to locate Some of them are
among our best and most industrious
colored people, and we hope for their own
good that they will look we'll to this im>
portant step before it IS finally taken
They have a perfect right to go, it is
true, but then they are not suited for
pioneers in a strange land, and while
some ofthem might, perhaps, do well the
chances are decidedly against them.
Here in Hardeman county the colored
man is far better off than in any place we
know of, and all that is necessary to his
peace and comfort, is steady work; econo>
my, temperance and fat refusal to med
die in politics either for one party or the
other. Let him keep aloof from political
excitement and honor the position be
fills by an honest and upright course. By
so doing, peace and plenty will be his
reward.

Horace Maynard was nominated for
Governor by the radicals on the 10th ult.
He accepted the nomination in a speech
in which he endorsed the civil rights bill,
as passed by the Senate, but he did not
understand that mixed schools were pro.
vided for by the bill The third resolu.
ton of the platform adopted by the con-
vention nominating him reads as follows:
Third, We are in favor of the full and
equal enjoyment of accommodations, sd
vantages, rights and privileges by all citi
zens and other persons within the juris-
diction of the United States, without re-
gard to race, creed or color, and at the
same time we deem it unnecessary and
unwise to attempt, by Congressional leg
islation, or otherwise, to compel as be-
tween such races, creeds or colors, the
joint exercise of such accommodations,
advantages, rights or privileges. But we
recognize the principle which is older
than our Constitution, that every mans
house is his castle, and that under our
government every citizen, white or black,
has the right to bear arms in conformity
to law, and to express his opinions with.
out interference or molestation.
Horace will be along, perhaps, before
the election and with his beautiful style
and fascinating oratory he will almost
pursuade the unsuspecting that he is
right, but his negro equality notions will
ruin him with the people of West Tens
nessee as they have in East Tennessee.

Brown and Grant.

On the 18th of September Gov. Brown
sent a communication to President Grant
giving in full the present status of affairs
in Tennessee in so far as the recent out
RACES are concerned, and the efforts of
the authorities to enforce the law and
bring the guilty to justice. As result
of these efforts he states that forty-two
of the persons accused of being con-
cerned in the Trenton affair have been
detected and indicted, and majority of
them have been arrested. Gov. Brown
respectfully but earnestly protests
against the action of the federal authors
ties in arresting persons and conveying
them to Memphis, one hundred miles
distant, to answer for the same offense
charged against them by the State
courts. He says further that the peace
of society will be more certainly preserved
and the rights Of citizens as we'll pro-
tected by conceding jurisdiction to the
State courts He closes his communica>
ton with the following language: l
therefore respectfully ask your excel
lency to order that no further arrests be
made by the marshal, and the parties all
ready IN his custody be turned over 20
the proper local tribunals for trial and
punishment. l undertake to assure your
exceIlency that no effort will be spared to
enforce the laws and protect the citizens
by the officers of the State government
throughout the borders of this State, and
believe the local authority is ample to
protect people of every race and condi-
ton in life. An early reply is respect
fully solicited.
The President replied on the 10Th,
that he had no official information from
the United States District Attorney for
the Western District of tennessee, and
that the dispatch of the governor would
be referred to that officer for report. He
promised 20 give a more definite answer
so soon as the report of the District At
torney is received. The President is
gratifed to know that the State auth orr.
ties are disposed to suppress and punish
a class of lawless acts so dangerous to
life, and so opposed to every political,
financial AID moral interest of the State,
but says that the constitution makes it
his duty to enforce the acts of Congress,
and Congress has passed laws giving the
United States jurisdiction in such cases
as are referred to in Gov. Browns dis.
patch. He reminds the governor that
the State and general government may
have concurrent jurisdiction over the
same offense in certain cases, and that
the action of the State authorities, in
such cases, does not prevent the general
government from proceeding against Of
/ tenders

The Tennessee Radicals present the
remarkable spectacle of a candidates
running on one platform and the party's-
promulgating another. 1t has been usual,
heretofore, for the candidate to stand
fairly and squarely on the platform. In
the 3rd article of their platform the radi'
Gals say, IN effect, that they believe in
the principles enumerated in Summers
Civil Rights Bill, but that it is unwise
and unnecessary to compel by congress
sional legislation the joint exercise by
whites and blacks of the principles enu~
merated in the bill, such as riding in the
same cars, sleeping in the same beds, and
eating at the same tables. Ifthey believe
in these things it is passing strange that
they do not urge Congress to enforce
them by appropriate legislation" a
small contradiction sti;ls out here.

According to the Chattanooga Times,
wherever "a county was represented in the
Radical State convention at Chattanooga
by single delegate, he was certain to
be a postmaster or collector of internal
revenue. There was only one exception
Prince Patrick O'Rourke, tailor, Of
Nashville.
The solitary delegate from Hardeman
is postmaster at Grand Junction He is
also the radical nominee for the legisla-
rights bill, barring the democratic con-
struction.
