THE FIELD or BATTLE.

The astute politician, in taking in
with an experienced eye the situation
to-day, can arrive Mt no other conclu'
sion but that tho great State of New
York is now the pivotal State and I'M
til the It'll of November, will absorb
the interest Of the country, OF all the
States in the Union, New York is
known to DO the most inconstant in
politics. AS Benefits paper says 1t is
a sort of tradition for more than half Il
century that New York politics are
standing puzzle to people not residing
in tho State, In this respect the State
maintains its old reputation, There
are other doubtful States, but they are
doubtful in different way, In other
uncertain States there is an clement OF

They are doubtful because they are

LeadVaIe-Oak Hill.

| To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
Nowhere in East Tennessee is there a
| clustering of more beautiful scenery
/ than around this place. Oak Hill School,
in charge of Prof. @. T. Russell, is To-
Gated in a quite little valley, place that
| is as lovely for home as heart could
wish. 1t is only a step from the rail
| road, but no mountain cove is disturbed
| less by the noise of a bustling world.
| To a visitor, the closing exercises of this
school, which came off yesterday, were
as an oasis in the cary way of every
| day life. Prof Russell is born teach
err He loves his work, and such men
never drag over their work like it was a
task. tl-.... e = s.s1
The examination of. the classes indi-
Gated thoroughness. 1t was the parad-
ing of picked parts, gotten up for the
occasion. ttt'.-i -..-
In connection with the more strictly
literary exercises were series of more
than usually interesting stage perform
ances.
The awarding of prizes was enjoyed
by the packed house and by the I'M
successful competitors as we'll as by the
more favored ones who were the recipi-
ents Millions works were awarded as
prize for the best composition, to Miss
Sarah Minis. Miss Lucy Moore received
very fine and costly gold medals; pre-
scented by Prof. Russell for general ex-
cellence; punctuality, scholarship and
department being considered. He also
gave two silver medals for similar ex-
cellence, to Miss Lou Franklin and Miss
Mary Minis. These medals were genius
of art, gotten up by your townsman,
Mr.. Salvo, of whose high character as
a ieweler you are aware The Lead
vale people know him a most entertain
ing pianoist and singer He can make
a speech also. Perhaps you were not
aware of that fact Try him and see.
But, lest you doubt, here is a specimen
of his speech delivered in presenting a
silver cup to Miss Mary Minis, the win
ming performer at the pianO-forte; -
sin presenting to you this cup, it af-
fOrds me great pleasure, as no doubt it
does you in receiving it. The advanced
progress you have made in music shows
me the untIring efforts of your teacher,
and the close application and energy of
yourself as a pupil. Your zeal and per- \
severance has obtained for you this
prize, so clearly contested by your class
mates. Allow me to congratulate you,
and tender to your safe keeping this
beautiful memento."
l think have preserved almost his
exact language. We sccarely know to
whom our thanks are chiefly due for
the enjoyment of the day. Mr. Salvo,
Prof Russell and the whole swarm OF
busy pupils are contestants.

LETTER FROM NASHVILLE.
REPUBLICAN, CONVENTION.
.4s NASHVILLE. Nav 10. 1876.

y
To the Editor o. the Morristown Gazette:
The Republican State Convention
to nominate delegates to Cincinnati
met yesterday in the hall of the
House of Representative and Or
ganized by the appointment of Jo-
serh r. DilInn. Esq, of Nashville.
as chairman. The State was pretty
we'll represented by the same old
coons that have done this kind of
work for the past decade. Their
faces are familiar as Office holders in
the main, route agents and other
employees of the post Office depart
mant, store keepers. gaugers, depu-
ty collectors and other employees of
the internal revenue department;
besides surveyors of customs, in
spectors of steamboats, and a per-
feet shower of q. S. Marshals and
their deputies. These WORTHLESS came
from about Chattanooga, Memphis
and around the capital, at the latter
Of which places they might be COM
puted to swarm like locusts. How
ever there was a decent sprinkling
OF independent republicans from the
rural districts. Fifty years agone
it was regarded a disgrace for one
in Office to take active part in prima-
ry nominations. 1t was thought that
Office holders should confine them
selves strictly to their official duties,
leaving independent voters to indi-
cate who should be nominated for
election TO Office. Not so now with
these veracious Office holders, who
are just about this time muchly faint
ed with alleged corruption. They
manipulate the State and county ex-
ecutive committees, do all the ap-
pointing of delegates beforehand,
and the primary meetings amount to
a most fragrant sham and fraud upon
the honest citizens. HsE
The Democrats about the capital
are acting more wisely in this regard.
At their primary meetings poll is
regularly opened and delegates of
the district most worthy are thus ap-
pointed. This gives stamina to the
basement of the pyramid in political
nominations. s-e f..r .-.. -.e-f
AS you have already seen the de-
tails in the daily papers it is not ne
cessary for me to allude to them
further than to say that the colored
man was button-holed and approach
ed confidentially by many of the
leaders, as we observed from our
seat in the gallery; and one would
have thought there were blood rela-
tions meeting, SO hearty and cordial
and frate-nal were the greetings.
But Sambo seemed to feel his digni-
ty and comprehend their motives.
The freedmen's bureau swindle and
the unctuous promises heretofore to
give the colored citizens in Tennes-
see all the fat offices having proved
a sham. These sable citizens look
with suspicion and are as solemnly
and silently dignifed as aboriginal
chieftains who meet the pale faces
in council. TENNEssEAN.

~ There was an exciting scene
at Plymouth Church meeting, the
evening Of the 18th, called to receive
the report of the special committee
appointed to investigate the charges
made by the examining committee
against Mr.. II. c.. Bowen. During
the proceedings Mr.. Beecher arose
to speak, and had said: Il am charg-
ed with an Infamous crime when
DR.. Ward, counsel for Bowen, shout
ed: "And you are guilty of it." A
scene of tremendous excitement fol-
lowed. a dozen members rising to call
for a retraction of the objectional
words, while groans and Kisses came
from all parts of the room. When
Moderator Egerton at length sue
ceeded in restoring order, Mr.. How
ard demanded a retraction, or else
that DR.. Ward be Immediately or
dered to leave the room. DR.. Ward
refused to retract, and the modera-
tor ordered him to retire at once,
which he did, amid another volley of
Kisses.
