Coz. A. S CoLYAR has offered
himself at Nashville as an lndepen'
dent candidate for the Legislature.
and upon the following strong plat
form. lie says;
The facts which have prompted me tC
be a candidate are:
l. The dishonor brought upon the
whole State by making q public debt
which we do not provide fer.
2. The well nigh universal admitted
fact, that we are not able to provide fol-
il at present.
8 The utter failure Of any one in OFF
cial, or prospective official position, to
propose anything that has even the merit
Of buOyancy to the public mind.
4 A general opposition to working
convicts in competition with honest
labor, without proposing any plan for
working them.
Mere negative suggestions under dith'
cul,ies is but a mode Of escaping trouble
some questions. When difficulties SUR
round q people and great burdens hang
heavily over them, action-afirmative
action-o uly will bring relief, Hence
true craftsmanship, in prosperity, is al
ways passive-under difficulties it is al.
ways aggressive.
