Shameful.

Nashville Bulletin. Republican,
The following paragraph appeared in a
circular sent out by the Republicans dur
ing the recent campaign in New Hamp-
shire
See to it that the party which dares to
insult You, and heap dishOnOr on the
graves of your sons who died in battle,
by bringing here this rebel General Cor
don and Lamar, who still swear by the
Lost Cause. to instruct you concerning
your political duties, is defeated, Be
have in a manner which will effectually
prevent repetition Of the insult
We don't know the hour when we were
not q Radical; we are an ardent support
er of the Administration, and endorse its
measures; but do protest against the eff
fort to degrade Southern men who fought
in the defense OF the South. There is no
use in attempting to gainsay the fact that
a vast majority of the Southern people
arrayed themselves in favor of the Lost
Cause, and did it cnnscientiOusly, too.
We say this, who are a Southern man,
and who did not go with the majority.
And if TIE country looks for honest white
men in the South, it must 60 chiefly
among ex-rebels to find them. Gordon
and Lamar were relels; but they laid
down their swords ten years ago, and
swore fealty to the general government.
They are Just as loyal as the men who
sent out the circular above referred to.
We cant have a great country until we
are a united people, and such lines as the
above do not contribute towards the
building up of good feeling between the
people of the North and South. We
want them stopped.

Producer versus Non-prOduc-


The tendency Of our old slave system
ofcotton producing was to concentrate
commerce in few large cities. The
South once had the monopoly of cotton
producing. With cotton we commanded
the wealth of all the world. Then cot
was worth producing But we no longer
have this monopoly. King Cotton is
dead Let us bury him! He once sup
ported in the cities of the South hum
dreds Of thousands of non-producers,
with promise Of supporting hundreds
of thousands more. Alas for the non
producers, he no longer has the power
The day for the Capitalization of COM
merce in great commercial centers in the
South is gone. Commerce alone will
no longer build them. Owing to the
change In our system of labor and agri-
culture, our country viii become filled
with small towns and villages. Our cities
will stop growing unless they become
manufacturing centers. If our people
will gather together in crowds of thou
sand they must become manufacturers
they must become producers. The non
producing class must be cut down and
scattered The merchants will have to
gather in smaller crowds and become leg
itimate merchantS-the mere agents for
the exchange Of one kind Of produce for
another.

the only hope of our greatness as State
and of our prosperity as people.
As an agricultural State merely, we
have reached our highest degree of
wealth. Not that we may not improve
even in this particular, but we are not
apt to do so until we engage in manufac-
turing on an extensive scale. As States
increase in manufacturing wealth they at
the same time increase greatly in agricul'
tural wealth. Witness Pennsylvania,
Missouri and Ohio. This being the case.
we should turn our attention to manufac-
turing, and to this end we should open up
the rich mineral districts of the State, in
GLIDING the counties of Hickman, Perry,
Wayne, Lawrence and Lewis, which have
heretofore remained unprecedented by any
ofour great lines of railway. That hith-
erto neglected region might be made the
prolific source of Tennessee's greatest
wealth, lying as it does in such proximity
to the rich agricultural counties in the
linn stone basin.
/ am not one of those who believe that
everything should be left to individual en-
terprise. If this had been done in the
past no improvements would have been
made, and States and communities would
have remained stationery if they had not
retrolr -dSd. Where would Tennessee be
now if this non-progressive doctrine had
prevailed in former times2 We would
now have been without turnpikes, rail
roods or any other improvements. 1t is
true our State will have to pay sixteen
million of dollars for her railroad system,
owing to the reckless and unwise Legisle-
ture, from 1865 to 1870 inclusive; but this
amount is Insignificant compared with
benefits derived and the increased wealto
and productions of the country which are
the results of this system.
In my opinion it is the duty as well as
the interest of the State to assist in open
ing up and improving these mineral coun-
tics In that way she will enrich the 9TH
er counties, and in the end tighten the
burdens of taxation by increasing the
wealth of the people. In what manner
the aid should be given is matter for
future consideration. This is a subject
Of paramount Importance, and deserves
much more attention than it has received.
OF the sixteen millions OF dollars expend-
ed by the State on RAILROADS, these coun'
ties have received nothing, although they
are expected to pay their portion of the
State debt. Justice as well as sound pol
icy requires that something should be
done for them especially, when the whole
State will be SO much benefited by the
improvement of these counties. 1t is
furthermore the interest of all the holders
of Tennessee bonds to assist in improv
ing the State and in increasing the wealth
OF the people, for in so doing they will in
crease the value of the bonds they hold.
/ have given my views fully on this
sulj oct in my GAINESVILLE speech, copy
of which send you. This it seems to me
is matter of no little Importance. We
can only get clear of our debts byiucreas
ing our wealth, and to dc this we must &C
forward in the paths of progress.
