EIGHT years ago Maynard said 1.-THE
loyal men of Tennessee and the nation
had made up their minds that the men
who crushed the rebellion should control
the Government, national and State.
This purpose they would carry out, and
let the consequences take care of them
selves. He admonished the Rebels that
after another war the work of recon.
struction would be easy. We would
only want in the South Surveyor Gen
eral and some other officers" In his
recent speech in Knoxville he said the
leaders of rebellion in 1861 are ready
to-day to unfurl the bloody flag of trea-
son. That is the man to talk blandly to
Southern people and ask them to make
him Governor.

The Knoxville Press and Heard OF
Thursday, says: "The report of Judge
Porters Jonesboro speech fell like a
bombshell among the Maynardites who
expected that the Narragansett would
have things all his own way in the can
vass. We predict that before the can
vass is a week old, Maynard will have
his hands full to defend his own miser-
able record, instead of attempting to re-
vive the bitter recollections of the war
and to again array the people of East
Tennessee in strife. Judge Porter's
friends are jubilant, whilst the ring
masters of the civil rights faction are
bowling and cracking their whips in
frantic attempts to keep up some show
of organization"

THE ISSUE.

The Somerville Falcon of to-day says;
"Let it be remembered that the issue
is the same as in the August election.
The 6ght is to be made upon the color
line" That sum Of villainies and
unintessence of denominations, the civil
rights bill, is the leading question in the
canvass. Remember that our sueccess
is BY no means fixed fact, but that
lcOrk, faithfal,earHest icork is absolutely
necessary. Let every white mar re-
member, too, the outrageous speeches Of
Scales FIELDS and Oscar Williamson and
other facts kept prominently before the
public during the last canvass, and then
strike one more bold stroke for freedom
from Radical rule. aud with such stand
ard bearers as Porter, for Governor,
Young, for Congress, Smith, for Senator,
Galloway, for Floater and Gober, for Re
preventative, success will crown our
efforts aud the death knell Of the Radical
party of Fayette county be sounded in

in the following letter to the Womsn's
Journal"
En,roRs WoMAS's JoURNAL.-Your
eorresnondents are having trouble about
a name for new garment. For two
vaars except in hot weather, when |
wanted as little covering as possible on
shoulders or arms, / have worn the
article they wish to designate. Like old
King George with the apple in the
dumping, every one who has seen 1t has
asked, "How do you get inY The
frequency of the question named it for
me, and / call it "getin." do get
into it without difficulty, and, once In,
am covered from the wrists 10 the neck
and ankles, and have no useless drapery.
Then, with a drilling waist, cut some
what like corsets and furnished with
broad straps, resting just where mans
suspenders rest, and divided in front, as
they are. bit of tape on each side at
the lower edge, to which | attach rubber
stocking suspenders, which tie with tapes
to loops on the stockings, am ready for
skirts, which pin TO the waist, prefer
ring pins to buttons.
Thus all my clothes rest just where
men have theirs supported, !. e., on the
shoulders above the joint, leaving this
free Withskirts thatnever GENE below the
instep. and are not unnecessarily WIDE
or heavy. this dress is as nearly health
full a. the laws OF society will permit.
AS for the undergsrment, If other
folks are going to adopt 1t, 1t should
have a name by which it can be gen
orally known. Any one is welcome to
nv name, and l am willing to adopt
another, bus not "chemiloon. The
word is one of the ugliest have ever
seen. 1t is too long, and the ending is
suggestive of horrible sounds heard near
lonely lakes. l have lain at midnight
in o lonely cabin, listening to the boot
ing of looms and owls. the believing OF
bears and bowling of wolves, all mingled
In hideous chorus, and object to the
of another loon into the
language. II we want to keep near our
old name, why not call the thing chem Z
This would be a distinctive appellation,
but if longer word is wanted add some
short syllable, for instance, "Chemlin."

The rations appropriated by the last

regions of the South have just begun to
he distributed in the high and dry dis
tricts of Alabama aud South Carolina
and what is singular is that crowds Of
negroes who lost nothing, and never had
ANYTHING to lose, are the recipients OF
all this bounty. At Montgomery the
csrpet.baggers are distributing thousands
Of pounds of meat and bread every day
TO their ustituents-to negroes who
accept all this IS an evidence that the
government gives a premium for idle
ness and poverty. In other words, the
whole country is taxed to help carry the
carnet-bag ticket in Alabama. If these
hungry hordes had really been suf-
ferers By the overflow they would
have been starved and dead cor
muses." long ago But there is an cleo
ton ahead, and the party that can come
nearest to furnishing forty acres and
two mules to every African voter can
reasonably calculate on carrying heavy
msiorities. The hearts and minds, too,
of these voters can often be reached
through their throats. None know this
fact better than Governor Lewis and
his allies. The negro reaches out with
one hand for hunk Of bacon, and with
the other hands in the ballot Of an IN

At the large clothing house of Sproule
L McCown, Nos. 24l and 243 Main
street, corner Of jefferson, one of the
largest stocks of goods in the city can
be found. The firm manufacture their
own clothing for the Memphis and
Southern market, and their thorough
knowledge of the wants of Southern
customers gives them great advantage
over many other houses engaged in this
line of business. In the line of
business coats, pants. half hose, shirts,
underwear, gloves, overcoats, etc.,
Sproule & McCown can safely defy any
or all competition. They have brought
down the prices of goods to the lowest
possible rates. Their new stock Of
clothing for fall wear cannot be sur.
passed in any city in the Union. AS
they buy for cash and manufacture their
own goods, not only for their Memphis
house, but also for their Louisville and
New Orleans branch establishments,
they invite the inspection of the public
and guarantee to sell at astonishingly
low rates. Go at once and price the
goods, and you will be convinced that it
does not take any great amount of
msHey to purchase fashionable suit Of
clothes. or anything else known to the
line Of gentlemen's wear. See their ad-
