--,
In making up their minds as to
who shall represent them in the 44th
American Congress, the people Of this
district VIII be moved 10y their own
calm, mature judgment, and not by
the ,tlrrvesceut outburst Of 'teu-cents-
u-Inen politicians They are not
going to become the victims of a sick
Is seutmeutulism which leads to the
Support of inferior men who appeal to
accidental circumstances rather than
real merit, as the basis of their claims
for support. The selection Of Re
preseutaye in Congress is a business
matter, aud the voters of the Second
Congressional district will take bust
ness like view of il. The question they
wIIlask themselves Is, Will Mr.. Ma
bry or Col. Vhornburgh best serve u,
at Washington upon the floor Of the
House Of Representatives and in the
=. Departments There can be but one
answer to this. Col Thorn
burg has already served US
one term, and through all the bit
ter war made upon him, no one has
, pretended to charge that he has not
been an energetic and faithful servant.
He has been ready, willing, and active
Few men have been able to accomplish
more for their constituents in a short
time than he II he has been 50 eff
cient with his short experience, of
course his power 10 work for his people
must be increased with further eXre-
/ Renee The people Of the district re-
, cognize this, and consequently eSpec.
, to retain him by large majority.
The Nashville Banner says that Mr..
! Maynard is unsocial-that lie j, as
cold as the Pennsylvania pig iron fUI
: which he has mostly legislatcd." Well
we admit that he does turn the cold
shoulder to some neA. For instance,
