Washington Curran Whitthorne, OF
Naury County, was nominated last Tues
day at Columbia, as our Representative
in the Lower House of the 44th Congress.
His opponents for the nomination were
men of tirst-class ability and great popu-
larity. Either one OF them would have
given high satisfaction TO the people.
This is the third term for Mr.. Whit
thoruc, his first term being the And Con-
gress. There is certainly no superior to
this distinguished gentleman in this Dis
trict in all the elements which go to make
mp number one Representative. He
was our Representative in the 43rd Con-
-rcss. From every district in this county
We have heard gentlemen of high stand
ING and influence say that he had been
unremitting in his labors to do everything
which his people wanted him to do at the
Federal capital for them. Personally We
know that he has been extraordinarily
prompt to respond to every request we
have Irade of him for others There
have been many of these. He is very
,ntirirg in his efforts to subserve the in
terests of his constituents.
He s. a man of broad and liberal views
deeply rooted and well grounded in the
Jelersonian and Jacksonian principles OF
government A distinguished political
opponent of his, TO oar knowledge, de-
c'ared that although he was not the per
gonal or political friend of Whitthorne,
vet he knew him to be one of the most
assiduous workers and closest students
The Democrats had in Congress; that if
his people should keep him in public life
the day was not far distant when he
would rank among the very first men OF
the nation. Franklin ReUie1r.

We cannot give our consent to the
establishment of a white mans party, as
advocated by our correspondent, Fanx.
1t is true that on great political occasions
the negroes vote in body against the
white people, it is true that they cannot
be persuaded by argument, and are as
one man arrayed against US. But if we
are wiser and stronger than than they
are, we should act with more wisdom and
discretion. A white mans party would
promote a perpetual war between the
races. The negro made a faithful servant
in the days OF slavery, was kind and true
TO the families Of the absent soldiers dur
ing the great war, and we should not now
leave him to the tender mercies Of the
party of hate. Although he votes against
as aud with our enemies, let us continue
TO show him that we are his best friend:
Let him vote as he pleases, without
molestation, but let US not form a party
which he will look upon as inimical TO
his interest. ct him have no excuse
for being our enemy. Suppose that
there was not white person in the South,
and the negroes we're left entirely to.
themselves for the next hundred years,
does any one doubt what the result would
bc2-that civilization wonld be axactly
what it is in Africa to-day? Then it be-
hooves the white people not to undo the
work of civilization which was well
begun by slavery, by neglecting them

We ara informed that Mr.. S. NJ
Arnel, of Maury County, was one of the
three white Republicans in the Chat
tanooga convention who were in favor of
the civil rights bill, just as it is. Mr..
Arnell probably has great control of the
negro voters of this county, and is an
avowed advocate of the civil rights bill,
mixed schools and all. We will do him the
credit to say that, Notwithstanding his
intense Radicslsm, and his great power
over the negroes, they are, as a mass,
peaceable and industrious. There are q
few exceptions, such as the attempted
assassination of Mr. Childress, on DIR. ID.
A. Davidson's place, and the threats
against the life of Jake Orr, near Mt,
Pleasant.

The Republicans met in the Savings
Bank last Saturday, but concluded to
wait until tomorrow to nominate their
candidates for Senator, Floater and Rep
resentative. is understood that Mr.. j.
H. Gregory will be nominated for tn e
State Senator, and DR.. Davidson for Rep.
resentative. Mr.. Gregory is supposed to
be in favor of the civil rights bill, mixed
schools and all Whether DR.. Davidson
Is heterodox on that important question

Horace Maynard says he is opposed to
the school feature of the supplemental
civil rights BILL and yet in the same
breath denies that the bill means mixed
schools But Mr.. Maynard's record shows
that this is all to curry favor with the Re-
pubEcans of East Tennessee, who are
more bitterly opposed, if possible, to the
civil rights bill than are the Democrats OF
Middle and West Tennessee. In February
1872, Mr.. Maynard voted against an
amendment offered to Hoar's Nation al
Educational bin, which provided that
those States having laws against mixed
schools should have their share of the
moneys provided for in the bill. In other
words, Mr.. Maynard voted against his own
State, Tennessee, having any benefit OF
the National Educational bill so long as
she was opposed to schools of mixed
colors. This is not surprising, however,
ashe has voted in Congress, for the last
sixteen years, against everything he knew
would be best for his own State.

A Granger denies that the farmers
have any i'll will toward the towns, and
says lawyers don't like the farmers move
ment because they arbitrate their diff
cGlties instead of going to law. We don't
believe it. This paper has advocated
arbitration in terms not to be mistaken,
and urged the churches and societies to
practice it, as a great source of economy
and as promotive of peace and good will
among men. We have done this, and yeti
the lawyers have not made any war on
Us, or even objected to our doctrine.
They approve arbitration, and advise it.
The farmers are our patrons and our
friends, but when they do wrong we shall
not hesitate to tell them of it. We
could show our friend "R." wherein the
farmers have manifested an unmistaka-
BILE opposition to everybody in Columbia,
but nothing would be gained by it. We
prefer to speak in general terms.
