The Tennessee Senatorship.
EFrom the Nashville Banner, August 81

EFrom the Nashville Banner, August g. 5' s
By constitutional provision the vacancy
o,casioned in the States representation in the
United S ates Senate by the death Of Hon.
Andrew johnson, may be filed by Executive
appointment until the next meeting of the
General Assembly. We have sufficient conf
dence in the appointing power to have no
fears but that q suitable selection will be
made. We are not in the least disposed to
dictate to that authority the course that ought
to be pursued in the premises. Speaking in
behalf of the majority OF the citizens of the
State, we believe we faithfully represent their
views in this connection, when We assert that
no appointee, representing essentially the
currency ideas of Wall street as presented
through the medium Of one Of its most sub
servient echoes, the New York World, would
be at all acceptable to the Democratic
Masses whose congressional representatives
in the last Congress emphatically recorded
Tennessee as opposed to the continued con-
traction of the currency and further inf ,tion
OF the bonded deb. of the nation, in harmony
with the last s ate Democratic platform, which
declared in flavor of the abolition of the
present odious National banking system, an
the payment of the bonds of the Government
by issuance of its non. bearing interest notes,
accord ng to the contract expressed and i'm
piled at the time of the creation of such
obligations"
If Tennessee has any use for a representa-
tive in the Federal Senate at this time, it is to
represent her wishes on the grave question of
finance now presented. A representative in
harmony with the New York World on this
question can hardly be in harmony with the
sentiment of Tennessee.

upon MIR. NYillamson's actions Wills in
Humbert's employs R.lioyeing that an
injustice had been done him Mr..
Williamson sought an interview with
Mr.. Webster on Thursday morning.
and finding him in the Office of Judge
of Probate, asked him to come outside
as he wanted to speak to him. Mr..
Webster came out, and they entered
into an apparently friendly converse
tion.
After this matters were so confused
that We cannot pretend to give cor
+ cct version of them. Sticks were used
freely between the two, and Mr.. Web
ster received several blows about the
neck and head, his stick having become
broken md useless in the fight.
After the affair Mr.. VI ebster was
taken into the Judge of Prcbate's s
Office and his wounds and bruises
attended TO by DR.. A G Dukes. Some
little time after Mr. Webster was tax en-
to his residence near the Clafin Univer
sity. BY order Of Mr. Webster who is
a Trial Justice Mr. Williamson was ar
rested, and brought before Trial Justice
j Fielder Meyers who required from
him bond with security to answer to
any charge that might be brought
against him in connection with the
affair.
BY reque st of Mr. Williamson we add
that the paragraph in the Free Citizen
which says: "Frieuds approaching Mr.
Williamson ran" is erroneous. That
MIR Webster being down he would not
strike him but walked off, leaving hi m
there.
