A brilliant legal luminary of Nashville,
filed with a vast amount of presumption
and very small quantity of law and
common sense, Frank I. Reid, came out
in the Banner in favor of taxing church
property, in a weak imitation of James
Parton. He is particularly in favor of
taxing the Methodist Publishing House.
This brought the veteran DR.. McFerrn to
his feet, and he gave Reid as great a
thrashing as the people did several years
ago, when he undertook to defeat the
Democratic party by Liberalism" The
Publishing House was not taken to Nash
vile, until the corporate authorities
of that place promised that that institu
ton should always be exempt from taxa
ton. This Publishing House is owned by
seven hundred thousand Southern Meth
odiSts, who never would have located it
there but for that promise

drew Johnson] the Senator, upon the
ground that she has not had her due pro-
portion of good things for the last four
years. The Journal overlooks the fact
that she had had almost a monopoly otthe
good things for several years prior TO
that time. For instance, she had had
Andrew Johnson for Senator-Andrew
johnson for Military Governor
johnson for Presdent-Andrew
johnson for President-and Andrew

candidate for Congress for the State at
large. The Journal elso toTgets that she
has had Brownlow for Governor and

Governor, and other minor Offices I'D lib

The Journal entirely ignores the strik-
ing fact that this is the first Senatorial
election since the war that the legislature
was free to choose from the entire people.
Heretofore, both the legislative election
and the candidates voted for, had to have
belonged to the Johnson Brownlow side
of the question in the late war. Now men
denominated rebels have right to
vote and be voted for in this important
contest Therefore, East Tennessee has
no special claim over the Middle and

To the Editors Of the Herald and Mat
The Senatorial question is the all alb
sorbing one here now There are six
democratic candidates, Stephens Savage,
Bate, Brown, Quarles, Ewing, and An
drew johnson, who is the favOrite of the
eight Radicals in the Legislature. Mr..
JohnsOns course in opposing the organ
iZatiOn OF the Democratic party IN the last
canvass has endeared him to the Radical
party of the State. 1t is understood that
his friends, doubtless by his instigation,
are attempting to get up pretended in
structions, signed by persons without re
gard TO age, color, condition or party,
Radicals, negroes, and some few Demo-
Gratis. Does lie expect TO impose on any
body by tricks like those2 Is opposition
to Democratic organization, Snd to the
principles and nominees of the party, to
eutitle man to Democratic support? If
so, what is the use of ever holding anoth-
er convention? Mr.. Johnson has not
strength sufficient to defeat the Demo-
cratic party, if it will adhere to its organ
ization and its principles.
The committee appointed to investigate
the Hobbs matter are buSily at work. 1t
Is reported that certain parties who are
said to know something about the matter,
have abSented themselves and will not
appear before the committee. Their alb
sence will be taken as a confession of
guilt, and will not only injure them but
may cause the innocent to suffer. Gov.
Brown friends appear to be anxious for
a searching and thorough investigation,
and deeply regret the absence of any wit
ness who may throw light on the subject.
They say he is entirely innocent, and
therefore desires a full statement Of all
the facts bearing upon the matter. 1t is
due % the public. as well as to the par
ties whose names have been mentioned in
connection with it, that all the facts
should be made known. Let the guilty,
if there be any, receive merited condem-
nation, and let the innocent not be con-
founded with the guilty. Much impor-
tant legislation will take place this SEES
sion, and it is remarked by all that this |
is a very able Legislature, from which the
may expect much il the way of
