Mr.. Dodd opened his electoral cam
paign at GAINESVILLE with distinguished
success. He addressed large crowd
at the Courthouse on Saturday, pre-
senting the issue of the campaign in a
cogent, argumentative speech, enforced
with earnestness and energy and
adorned with copious display of rhet-
ORIG. We are so completely overloaded
with matter this week that we are un-
able to attempt even an analysis of
his speech. He was followed in brief
but stirring addresses by the Hon.
John F. House and Mr.. Fl. NJ. Doak.
Concerning the admirable speech of
the latter gentleman we can only regret
that while we gain the benefit of the
speech, the American will loose it as
an editorial. However, there is plenty
more where that came from.

remarks of the chairman, was made by
one Of the gentlemen. After getting
all the clan Dunn men," That is
simply far fetched. Under motion,
which was not opposed by any one, the
chairman appointed a committee of
two from each district, making twenty
six men, toreport candidate. When
this was done, one of the gentlemen
said it looked little one-sided, (and
here will remark, that I did not
know the sentiments of half dozen
men that appointed,) and to show
that | did not, and was not acting in
the interest of Dunn as the gentlemen
insinuate, will say that / appointed one
of the gentlemen as a member of the
committee fully believing that he was
a Leech man, as he had told me so,
and yet, now he is the champion of
Mr.. Moody. When a gentleman, also
a Moody man, moved that one adj
ditional committee man be appointed
from each district. which motion pre-
vailed, he then with the assistance of
his friends, appointed the other thirteen
and | have since learned that about
half of them were Dunn men. If a
Moody man should make such mis-
take as this, what could be expected
from one picking men promiscuously
out of the assembled crowd The
Moody men all left the court room to-
gether to go to the committee room,
and then | suppose that the Moody
men withdrew, and refused to act fur
Their with the committee. There were
men in the convention from every dis
trict in the county, and if their man
was as strong as the gentlemen repre-
sent him to be, could they not have
voted down the Vaccinations of the
Ashland ring. It looks mighty thin.
Men being there from all parts of the
county, it is passing strange that there
was not enough to have squelched this
unfedged bantling at the start, and
not let its discordant voice have been
heard, to have disturbed the equinim.
ity of your friend. And more especial.
ly does this appear when we consider
that there was no previous call, nc
packing, no special friends staked fol
the occasion, but simply an uprising Of

heard, and rest assured gentlemen
that they will be felt at the November
election. And they say that no one
but James NJ. Dunn will suit them
And this the gentlemen will find out
when the election is over, and that he
is by large majority the choice of thi:
people.

wards the gentlemen or their candi

of Cheatham county, could not say
less. s. D. POWER.

LETTER FROM DICKSON COUNTY.


EDITORS CHRONICLE We some
times go up to Charlotte On first
Mondays to hear the news and swap
ideas with the sovereigns. Such trip
we made last Monday, the 4th inst.
As to news, the Democratic Execu-
tive Committee of this county were
advocating a convention of delegates
Cat Dickson City, this county, on the
18th inst, } from the several counties
composing this Senatorial district, in
order to unite upon one of the I've as
pirants now in the field. viz DIR. W.
A. Moody, DR.. r. 81. Sizemore, Capt.
Il. NJ. McAdoo, Esq. 10. Weems and
Esq. Bib.
In swapping ideas" I find the SOW
ereigns busy with the subject of the
coming representative in the lower
house of our next general assembly.
Our Floaterial district comprises
Cheatham, Dickson and Houston
counties. Dickson furnished the man
in 1872. (Mr. Jacob Leech) Houston
in 1874, (Mr, Pollard; and now
Cheatham, it being her turn, sends for
ward r. H. Moody, Esq, having cho-
sen him in primary election, held by
order of the Democratic Executive
Committee, in that county on the Sd
day of August last.
had tho pleasure of meeting Mr..
Moody in our town last Monday, and
hearing a speech from him expressive
of his views. MIR. Moody is a grave,
dignifed, yet very social gentleman,
and an excellent speaker. In his
speech he expatiated extensively upon
the origin and history of our bonded
debt, and set forth perspicuously the
Importance of maintaining the honor
and credit of our State. There is some,
though very little, opposition here to
the Cheatham nominee. Mr.. Jacob
Leech and Mr.. E. Andrews, of this
county, speak Of opposing Mr., Moody,
but we sincerely hope they will take a
more courteous view of the situation,
and that both Dickson and Houston
will unanimously and cheerfully sup
port Cheatham this time in return foI
her civility on past occasions.

Houston County Democracy.
Down on DisOrganizers.

At a meeting of the Democratic
party of Houston county, Tenn, at
Arlington, on the 4th of September,
1876, after having elected j. j. Pollard
chairman, and who, taking the chair,
appointed d. o. Askew from the west
end of the county, e. A. Adkins from
the east end and j. l.. McMullen from
the middle, of the county, to draft suit
able resolutions, expressive of the sent
iments of the party, we therefore re-
port the following resolutions:
1st. Resolved, That we are opposed
to any disorganization of the Demo-
cratic party and opposed to all indie
pendent candidates, whom we believe
to be detrimental to the welfare of the
party.
I'd. That Chatham county is enti-
tied to the representative in the Gen
eral Assembly of the state of Tonnes
see for the district composed of Cheat
ham, Dickson and Houston.
Sd. Whereas, the people of Cheat
ham county having held a primary
election, ordered by the Democratic
committee of said county, at which
election r. H. Moody received large
majority of the votes polled at said
election, and was thereby declared the
choice of said county for Representa-
ton.
4th. We, the people of Houston
county, in convention assembled, do
hereby ratify the action of Cheatham
county, and pledge our earnest and un-
divided support to their nominee, r.
H. Moody, for Representative of said
district for the next General Assembly
of the State of Tennessee.
j. l.. MCMULLEN.

Amended by Mr.. III. H. Buquo
9th. Resolved, That copy of these
resolutions be sent to the chairman of
the Democratic Executive Committee
of Cheatham county.
The above resolutions were read in
said mass convention and unanimously
adopted The convention then adj
journed, with instructions to go home
and vote for Moody.

Judge Smith in District No. 1e.

We, the Junior local, by invitation
of Judge Smith, accompanied him to
his appointment at Batson's Store, in
District No. Is, on Wednesday last.
There were about sixty persons at the
speaking of the best material of the
district.
Judge Smith spoke for one hour and
half, and completely and thoroughly
met every objection urged by the In
dependents against his election. He
knocked every prop from under the
Frederick men, and we sincerely be-
lieve that almost every man present
will vote for him at the election. The
speech was full and frank and entirely
satisfactory to every one. He showed
that the depression in business and
the hard times were traceable entirely
to Federal taxation. He showed that
the tax paid by the people of Tennes-
see, every year, to the United States
Government was nearly eighteen mill
ion of dollars, while the State debt,
in round numbers is about twenty
three millions, only about five millions
more of total debt than we pay each
year into the Federal Treasury. He
illustrated the manner in which we
pay the Government tax by showing
that on every box of matches we pur=
chase, we pay Government tax of
three cents, and that on three boxes
for which we pay twenty-five cents,
we pay nine cents. That out of one
dollar and twenty-five cents worth of
matches we pay the United States for
ty-five cents, which is as much as the
tax to the State on SIP 80 worth of
property.
He showed that District No. 16 pays
State taxes to the amount of $442 81
only. That the whole district pays
taxes on only S2,O21 OF personal prop
erty, which makes So 08 taxes; and
on $10S,610 of real estate, the district
pays a State tax of S434 A, and the
largest State tax that any one man in
the district pays, is S13 81. Mr.. Fred
erick only proposes to relieve the tax
payers two mills, which would save
only Sc II to this, the largest taxpayer
in the district, and for this sum the
taxpayer is called on to brea K up the
Democratic party.
If everybody in the county could
hear Judge Smith discuss the ques-
tions now before the people, we scar
cely thidk he would lose any votes,-
AS it is we are sure he will be elected |
by an overwhelming majority. We |
think it safe to predict good account |
from No. Is on the day of election.

coal aud iron working State, or she is
nothing; she has, it is true, immense
agricultural resources, but her access
to markets for her agricultural pro-
duets is inferior to that of other States
whose agricultural capacity is equal to
hers; but give her great mining popu-
lations, furnaces. factories, building
up great cities within her territory,
and then her market is at home, and
East and West Tennessee will mutu-
ally enrich one another by interchange
of manufactures and agricultural pro-
duce. Let US have. therefore, in the
rising generation a community skilled
in the physical sciences which will
know how to handle the materials
which nature has placed within our
grasp, and wealth, both public and
private, will abound and our present
embarrassment, both individual and
national, willvanish and twill no lon
ger be question whether we can meet
our obligations public or private.
There, we have got back to politics,
and we will close this paper by COM
mending the counsels of Prof Huxley
to all Tennesseeans, but especially to
those who are any way concerned in
the education of youth. 1t is given in
extenso on our first page.
The present destination of Prof. H.
is Baltimore, where he is to deliver
the inaugural discourse at the opening
of Johns Hopkins University; thence
he proceeds to New York, where he
is to deliver three lectures, and thence
back to England.
We much wish he could spend time
enough in Tennessee to give some at
tention to the interesting geology of
the Eastern part of the State, but his
avocations in England are too impor-
tant. So we will only thank him for
his visit, and wish him a long life of
happines and usefulness at home.

Closely Confined Awaiting the Start
Home.

MADRID, Sept. 1.-THE following
are additional particulars of the arrest
of William M. Tweed:
Captain General Jovellar, at Ha-
vana, received intelligence that Tweed
had disembarked at Santiago de Cuba,
and notified the authorities there.
Before the latter could take action,
Tweed embarked on the sailing vessel
Carmen, bound to Vigo. Captain
General Jovellar telegraphed the
Madrid government, which fearing
that the Carmen might go to some
other port, requested the authorities
at all Spanish ports to examine per-
sons on board all vessels named Car
men. There are twelve Spanish YES
sells of that name.
TWEED'S PORTRAIT.
The portrait of Tweed being indis-
pensable, the Spanish authorities OBJ
tanned and made copies of the carica-
ture in an American journal, repre-
senting him as beating a child, sup
posed to typify American Justice
This caricature led the Spanish au-
thorities and reporters of Spanish pa
pers to believe that Tweed had been
kidnapping children hence in the
first official announcement received of
the arrest of "Twid antelmi" Supposed
Geographic corruption of Tweed
American it was stated that he had
been arrested for kidnapping Ameri-
can children.
CLOSELY CONFINED.
Tweed is confined on the Isle of
Saint Simon, in Vigo Bay, where he is
undergoing quarantine, strictly watch
ed by the custom-house guards. At
the expiration of his quarantine, he
will be surrendered to the United
States representative. AS there are
no direct steamers between Spain and
North America, Tweed will be sent to
Cuba, and from there 70 New York.
