In Virginia the regulators abandoned
the democratic party and set up an or
ganization of their own. In small
space of time the ambition of their lead
ers led them into a coalition with the
republicans for the capture of the state
offices. A regular bargain was made
by which the regulators got a United
States senator, and the republicans a
majority of the offices at the disposal of
the legislature. Under this arrange
ment several crippled Confederate SOL
diers were removed to give place TO
carpet-baggers, and some of the most
lucrative offices in the commonwealth
thus fell into the hands of the common
enemy. We may expect the same sort
of thing in Tennessee if the people lend
their cOuntenance to the boilers. Let
them take warning in time and avoid
the possibility of betrayal by supporting
the regular democratic ticket.

The CITIZEN heartily approves the ac-
ton of the democratic state convention
and will give its nominee a cordial sup
port. The work performed oy that
body emphasizes and proclaims anew
the sound principles for which the bet
ter Judgment of the party has contend
ed since its organization. 1t gives the
lie to the assertion that the republicans
alone have the manliness to protect the
honor of the state, and it purges the
party of the shallow and evasive dema-
goguery which has distracted its coun-
ellis for the past four years. Policy is
remanded to the fluttering hearts which
crouched beneath its wing and princi-
| pie once more comes boldly to the front.
The platform is one on which every
loyal democrat can stand. While it IA
vors speedy and honorable adjustment
of the state debt, it seeks the best pos
siDle terms that can be obtained from
the creditors, and its promise to protect
the interests of the people and reduce
the taxes 10 The lowest posi- bic figure
rests on the honor OF the abiest, the
most patriotic and the safest men in the
state The nominee will prove an able
and valiant exponent OF the principles

the influence OF his clear and incisiye
logic, inspired by the justice OF She
cause he represents, the public mind SO

tone. AT any rae, with such g plat (

care? Rule or ruin is their policy.

If the masses OF the people think the

bring upon the state can be better borne
than an honorable adjustment OF the
public Indebtedness, why then let us ex-
punge from from our annals the names
Of SEWER, Carroll, Jackson, Polk, Bell,
and others of illustrious memory, whose
achievements FURNISHED the escutcheon
of Tennessee in the hallowed past; and
date our history forward to the time
when the howl of the jackal drowned

We are glad to see that the Democrat
ic Convention of che 9TH congressional
district, held at Shelbyville Tuesday,
nominated Capt. j. Ii. Burnam, of Fay
etteville, as presidential elector. This
honor could not have been conferred on
a more deserving gentleman. In point
o. intellect, Capt Burnam ranks among
the foremost men of the state, and as
brilliant and effective speaker he has
few, if any, equals. Had his aspira-
tiOns been commensurate with his ca
pacity, he might, ere this, have attained

PERSISTENT LARCENY.
Horse Railroad Employees Brought to
Justice.

For some time past the directors of the
Portland Horse Railroad have been impressed
with the idea that the sums of money return
ed by some of the car boxes did not amount to
as much as they should. The last fortnight
watch has been kept and the result is it has
unearthed plan of systematic larceny.
Mr.. o. N. Alden has been employed by the
company for five years past in many capacities
He was carpenter, oiler, occasionally drove a
car, and had been employed in the treasurer S
office. He was the first man at the car depot
in the morning and their oiled the wheels for
the days work. He was not only cry
useful employe but he was liked by his en-
ployers. A year ago this spring Alden was
employed in painting and vanishing the cars
for their summer work, and during that time
made four or five false keys, one of which he
retained. 1t appears that the last cole ction
of money and tickets from the cars is made by
the treasurer at 9.15 p. M, and then the cars
make two more round trips. The money put
into the boxes during these last two trips re-
mains in them over night and is collected by
the treasurer at 9.15 the next morning. A
fortnight ago it is known that money was put
in the boxes on these two last trips, together
with pieces of paper placed in one of the boxes
by some fellows for lark. The blank paper
was left the next morning but the money
taken. Last Friday night a man offered a
driver, A. f. Howard, twenty-five cents to
continue up the line, past the car station, on
the last trip, to the passengers house. The
silver quarter was placed in the box. The
next morning it was missing. The treasurer
also placed marked money in the box which
was traced to the possession of Alden and
Howard. Officer Morse yesterday ARE sted
both men. They have confessed their guilt.
How much they have taken it is impossible to
tell. No other employees are suspected

Trial of Relief Valvas

Yesterday afternoon the committee on fire
department, the chief and assistant engineers.
tested the new relief valves-which have been
placed on steamers and Sat the foot of
Myrtle street.
The idea of the valve is to enable the pine
man to shut off, or let on, the stream from the
pipe, without causing the engine to stop work.
ing. When the stream is shut off by the relief
valve action the water is forced continually
through the suction pump without any danger
OF bursting the hose. Yesterday the expert
ments worked very well. A power as high as
l6O pounds was applied and the water shut off
and let on with ease for a large stream. For a
small stream there was more or less spray.
The only possible drawback we could see was
that sometime or other the pressure upon the
steamer, after the shut off, might cause some
part of the machine to give way. An engi-
neer of the Grand Trunk, who was present,
said that if the safety valve was properly at
tended to he thought the stream would not do
any damage. The valve will be more fully
tested at fire. In Boston, the inventor says,
the valve has worked most satisfactorily.
