tions, valuable recipes for the household

Col. lame White.

This gentleman is candidate for Sec
rotary of State, and will present himself
before tie next General Assembly OF
Tennessee for that. office. Col. White
is thoroughly known to the people of
the whole State, with whom he is gem
eral favorite If political party can
under any circumstances owe man for
valuable and long continued services
rendered, then does the Democratic par
ty of Tennessee owe James White a
heavy debt. At the reorganization of
tile party here Immediately at the close
of the war, and at time when it re-
quired courage and frmness to face the
storm, he stepped boldly forward, seized
the Democratic banner and made noble
fight for principle. From that day to
tile close of the late Presidential cam
paign he has been in the forefront of
the line of battle. He has not at any
time hesitated to perform any duty re-
quired of him but has cheerfully spent
his money, his time and his talents for
the good of the party. ~
We shall perhaps have more to say
about Col James White between this
aud the meeting of the Legislature. In
the meantime we hope the members
elect will take his name into favorable
consideration, and we do sincerely hope
he will be elected. Mr.. White needs
the emo1uments of the office. A more
accommodating and kind-hearted man
cannot be found in the State. He ought
to have the office
