in its history. England has not
been invaded for eight hundred years,
or had o civil war for over tive hundred
years. During my brief absence from
the United States l have met and coR-
versed at great length with the subjects
of Great Britain from India, from Cape
town, Africa; from Canada, New Zeal
and, Australia and various parts of the
world. and have found them ell deeply
attached to the British constitution, ar
dent defenders of the crown aud enthusi-
astic admirers not only of the
Queen, but Of the Prince Of
Wales, the heir apparent to the throne.
Their very bigotry and self-conceit, which
seem partly exeusabls and pardona-
bic, are sources of strength. The Indian
empire instead of being an element OF
danger or weakness in case of war is the
contrary. l have just talked with an
intelligent gentleman direct from India
who has lived there several years. He
says that when there was a call made
for native regiments to 60 to Malta, with
a probability of taking a part in
a war against Russia, there IA q strife
and real bitter feeling %engendered as to
which should have the privilege Of going,
although their religion forbids them leav-
log their own country. Several regiments
we're sent and they were spelling for q
fight, while those lett behind were terri
bly, disappointed. This demonstration
Of loyalty was no doubt u of the
causes of Beaconsield's backbone, and
that logged determination which en-.
enabled him to dominate the Berlin
congress, virtually defy all Europe and
make a treaty to suit himself.
Verify, the time has come when the
name OF a Hebrew is honored as few
men ever have been in Europe, for he
has brought Peace with honor" The
English are proud of him, as they ought
to be. But Beaeons6eld is not the only
one of his race of great influence and
power here. l will cite only one instance;

The State Democratic convention to
nominate a candidate for governor is
called to meet at Nashville on Thursday,
the 18th instant. We would urge upon
the Democrats Of this county, who meet
at the courthouse tomorrow, to select
delegates to that convention, to choose
able and well informed men, whose views
in regard TO the settlement of the State
debt are we'll known and unequivocal.
The people are not willing to pay or
promise more than what is equitable and
reasonable under the circumstances. No
man should be nominated for governor
who is known or suspected OF enter
tanning high tax views and a seuti-
mental sympathy for the b~Ondholders.
We cannot stand and will not submit to
other than n heavy discount on the face
Of the State bonds, and q low rate OF in
terest. This issue must be met by the
State convention, and no evAsions or
double meaning plAnks in the platform
will satisfy The people or the fearless
press Of the State.
Secondly: The time has come for the
Democracy Of Tennessee to take a bold
stand on the greeAbsck question,
as has been done recently in Louisiana
and other States. The people shOald
demand the issue Of greenbaeks in
lien Of National Bank notes, and that
the same be made 8 legal tender, not
only for al commercial and business
purposes, but in the redemption Of the
bonds. The people should demand tne
repeal Of the resumption act and oil the
laws imposing a tax upon the circulation
of State banks. The gradual contraction
Of the currency to less than one-third it
original volume, the triumph Of moaopo
lies and rings over the toiling millions
force this issue into every workshop an

to expect that decisive action will b
taken upon these two great questions q

the State convention at Nashville ne1

They have original views Of what con-
%stitutes a picnic in Kentucky. In this
part OF the Union we count it an exeur.
sion to the country for social pleasure

it as a rendezvous TO settle old grudges

William and Thomas Blankenship we're
recently stabbed 20 death, aud that ten
to fifteen other persons we're more or
less seriously wounded. Now, that
sounds comfortable. Such facts as these
sharpen ones appetite for picnics. 1t is
downright hospitality to invite a gentle.
man to a party Of that sort and then
butcher him. II may seem like Q human
barbecue to people who are not &C
customed to the thing, but its delightful

can be more enticing than a picnic where
