what the Nashville American Has "a
Say About IA.

The Nashville American sprecial re.
porter writes to his journal as to the
competitive drill between the Porter
Rifles and Chickasaw Guards as follows:
During the morning aud afternoon
commons were fired in honor Of the city's
guests and the interest seemed Ia in

which the drill was announced to take

ual of arms aud the field evolutions in
an artistic manner, and as some extra
ordinarily good movement was executed,
loud bursts of applause would follow.
The drilling Of the two companies was
said by several competent judges to be
the best they ever saw; that is, among
citizen soldiery. Men Of great expert.
ence in military tactics were greatly
pleased at the easy ard graceful manner
in which the difficult movements were
executed.
At the conclusion Of the time allotted
to each company to drill, the widest en-
thusiasm would prevail, audit was hearth
ly Joined in by the competitive com
panies, each n e cheering the other when
che had finished. Expectation and an
tioipstion as the result of the COMETS ran
high towards the end, and the detail
guard had his hands full to keep the
crowd from the enclosure when the drill
took place.
The Porter Rifles did not have all Of
the same men that took part in the drill
at Nashville last May. which put them to
a slight disadvantage. The Chicaksaw
Guards exhibited great proficiency in
their drilling, which proved that they had
been hard at work preparing Tor the oc.
casion. The Porter Rifles had Travelled
all the night before and were somewhat
fatigued, but their excellent manedyers
astohished the wstehful spectators.
When the decision was announced The
widest enthusiasm followed men yelled
aud followed for the Chicks, and threw
their hats in the air. The Porter Rifles,
instead Of exhibiting any regret at their
defeat, also took part in the cheering,
and hurrahed loud for the Guards,
The unbounded hospitality with which
the Porter's were received here will be
an event in their lives long to be remem-
bered. Nothing wal left undone by the
citizens of Memphis to make the Porters
enjoy their visit.

General Bate and Hon. E. A.
James. Democratic electors for the
State at large, have conducted the
canvass with their respective COM
petitors. Pettibone and Foote, in a
most gallant and satisfactory style.
They have borne the Democratic
banner in triumph, from one end
Of the State to the other, and never
permitted it to trail. The people
will say, well done, good and faith
full servants. Mr.. James has fully
met the expectations of his friends
and his party. He was placed at a
disadvantage in the outset on ac-
count Of the feeling in his party
created by the withdrawal of Gov
ernor Harris and the substitution
Of his name. But Mr.. James not
cnly overcome all prejudice of this
sort, but made friends and COM
manded the attention and respect
Of the people wherever he went.
In the second place he was pitted
against Henry s. Foote, an ante
diluvian, who was arrogant, conceit-
ed and crafty in proportion to his
years and cottop-white hairs. This
was a great disadvantage for such a
young man as Mr.. james. Yet he
always held his own and sustained
his cause with dignity and manli-
ness without tresspassing upon the
prophecies imposed in such a sim
gularly matched contest. James
has ability and promise about him.
He will be heard from in the fu-
ture. The canvass between this
youth and his aged competitor

Bate was better matched, personally,
against Major Pettibone, although
there was no comparison between
them in point of ability. While

effective stumporator, usually carry.
ing his audience by the force Of
facts and irresistible logic, clearly

tor is quite an ordinary man ,
neither a speaker nor an able rea-

wound up on every stump, and the
gallant, chiyalric Bate has had a
free field for the display of Ina
power and earnestness which make
him SO justly popular among the
people. At the end of this canvass
he will retire with new laurels and

TIE GRAND DEMOCRATIC RALLY.
The committees in charge Of the
arrangements for the grand Demo
cratic mass-meeting, to be held in
Memphis on the 4th of November,
are working with such vigor and
energy as give assurance that the
meeting viii be one of the largest,
best arranged and most enthusiastic
political gatherings ever held in
Memphis. The Tilden and Hen
bricks clubs Of the different wards,
the young Democrats, the butch
ers, the Germans, and other or
CARNATIONS, will hold meetings to-
morrow evening to perfect arrange
ments to join in the torch-light
procession, which will be the most
imposing demonstration of the kind
ever witnessed in this city. Dis
tinguished speakers from several
States have been invited, and many
of the most eloquent champions of
the cause of Democracy and reform
have already responded, signifying
their intention to attend and address
the people. Not only Shelby and ad-
joining counties in Tennessee, but
Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Kentucky, along the lines Of rail-
road and river communication, viii
send hundreds and thousands to
join their brethren in Memphis in
this grand rally for reform and the
restoration of the government to
constitutional, honest and econOm-
ical administration. The people
are thoroughly aroused to the i'm
p~ortance of the issues involved in
the pending struggle. From all
quarters come most encouraging
reports Of the condition Of the
party. United, harmonious, cour-
ageous and confident, Democrats
have closed up their ranks, locked
shields, and are marching with
steady and irresistible tread to bat
tie and to victory. Let our citi-
zens of all classes who desire the
success of the principles of the
great Democratic party of retreneh-
ment and reform but second the
efforts of the Executive Committed
with vigorous and efficient aid and
the grand reilly of the 4th of No
vember will he as il should be, the
greatest political demonstration Of
the campaign in the Southwest.
DORSEY B. THOMAS spoke last
week at Trenton, and was not in
suited by the Porter Democracy as
he was at Brownsville. The Mirror,
which reluctantly supports Porter,
as many other Democratic papers
do, under the specious plea that the
nominee must be supported wheth-
er he be fit for the place or not,
says of Thomas speech:
We have not time, INCLINATION nor
space, to report any part Of the speech;
but in justice t. the man we must say
that it IS our opinion that be has not re-
ceived the best Of treatment during the
campaign. and that his record has not
been handled in that just and equitable
manner which should characterize the
leaders OF Democracy. No mere feel
ings of Sartisan prejudice will prevent
US saying taat much for him.
This is a fairer spirit than mai'
Tested by some of our State ex-
changes. The most of them seem
to think that Thomas ought to be

has to be done by unfair or forcible
means. Inferentially they indorse

In 1860 the expenses Of the
South Carolina Legislature under
Democratic rule were $4,000; in
1878, under the Republicans, $29l,-
600. The people, white and black,
desire a change and a return to
honest government. Chamberlain
appealed for troops to prevent the
negroes from voting the Democratic

thing as long as it was Republican,
but when it goes the other way the
