ITEMS FROM GRALNGER COUNTY

HORSE SHOE, Tenn, Oct. z, 1876.
To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
We suppose you are so busy publish
ing political items of the great Centen-
NAL campaign, that you will not have
time and space for a few ill-collected
items from good old Granger.
Dry weather and scarcity of money
seems to be the war cry. But the most
remarkable thing is that we hear moth
ing said about the election. With some
few, Yardley seems to be attracting
some attention.
We have had no political speeches as
yet in this immediate locality. There
was considerable snarling and swapping
among the dogs about Turkeys Hill yes
terday evening, occasioned by certain
would-be Representatives from Hamblen
and Granger counties. Some went to
the appointed place of public speaking

ing thing they did not intend, and who
were mad almost to mutiny itself because
it was done. For in 1863, when the East
Tennesseans found it to be a fixed fact,
that the negroes were to be freed and
taken into the army as soldiers, mutiny
in some of the regiments was rampant
and hard to keep down. And yet many
of these same would-be mutineers assure
the negro that but for them they would
never have had their freedom, and that
they must support them for Office both

So far as intentional fighting for the
freedom of the slave was concerned, the
negro is under just as many obligations
to VIM. L. Yancey, of South Carolina,
or JEFF Davis, Of Mississippi, for what
they did for him, as to any Republican
politician of East Tennessee.
It is true the war came up, and prob
ably for the express purpose of freeing
the slaves but if so, the intention was
kept a secret from East Tennesseans, and
they have no right to credit for the free
dom of the slave.
