Campbell a curious story of his start in the lc-
gal profession He hung out his sign in "A
small village, in his native county, of Putnam,
but business failed to crowd his office. But
after time, several men Of the village came
one evening into the office. Then said the
Chancellor rubbing his hands with slight
chuCkle of delight AS he recalled the incidcnU
Il thought there was important business to
come, when, after some conversation on com
mon topics, the set.constitutcd chairman or
spokesman said: Mr.. Kent, we have been talk

us, and have concluded that we want no law

we were to have one, we had rather have you

TENNESSEE POLITICs.-A communica-
tion from Washing .on, under date OF
August 18th, says that number of prom.
inent Tennesseeans lave been in that city
fcr several days. and /. develops that thei.
misaion here is to consult Judge Key in
regard to an independent party movement
in their State. The Democrats are badly
broken up over Republican issues, it is
claimed, and it is probable that an Inde-
pendent Convention will be held to NOM
mate opposition candidates for State
ticket. The gentlemen yho are here say
that if the Postmaster: General will accept
an Independent nomination for Governor
the Republican Convention will endorse
him, and his election will be certain.
Judge Key is new holding the matter
Under advisement, and the chances are
very favorable that he will give the move
ment his approval. He will not seek the
nomination, but if ayarded eim with any
great degree of unanimity, and if the
Republicans are disposed to accept him,
there is no doubt he will consent to run.
The President, it is said, encourages him
TO do so, although he will regret to have
him leave the Cabinet. but the President
thinks with Judge KY as leading can
tiidate on an Independent Democratic
ticket, his Southern policy could be sub
Jected to ve-y favorable test.
