BLOUNT COUNTY.
The Republicans i'm Consulta-
fiOn---Capt. Rowan Nominated
for tie State Senate--Cir-
cult COurf---COmme
ment, &C.. dc.

MARYvILLE, Tenn, May Is.
Mr.. EDITOR: Pursuant to call OF
the executive committee, the repnbl-
can party held a convention yesterday
for the purpose Of appointing DELE gates
TO the congressional and senatorial
conventions, for the purpose of select
ing or nominating candidate for sen.
ator and candidate for representative.
The convention met in the county
court room, and was called to order by
John D. Alexander, member of the
executive committee, and II. l.. w.
Hackney was called to the chair, but
he being absent, John ID. Alexander
was chosen chairman and John A.
Silsby was elected secretary. The
room was now crowded to overfiow~
ing, aud quite number could not get
admittance.
Resolutions were passed favorIng
Hon. l.. G. Houk for Congress, and
delegates appiDted to the convention.
The contest now became lively in
nominating a candidate for senatorial
donors. Three of our best men were
spoken Of, and their friends had grown
quite warm for their favorites. These
men were Maj. A. NJ Gamble, Capt.
Sam. p. Rowan and DR.. s. H. Gault,
but before the nominations came on,
Major Gamble withdrew from
the contest. The other two were
| placed In noinatiou, but 1t was
found that an intelligent voe could
not be had in the room. so the conven.
ton went into the yard, and, on mo.
ton, Capt. Rowan took his stand at
one end Of the lot ond DIR. Gsult at the
other, and their friends took their
stand until counted, which resulted IN
favor Of Capt. Sam. p. Rowan. and
was so declared by the chairman.
Thereupon, resolutions were offered
and adopted iDstructing the delegates
to the senatorial convention to cast the
vote OF Blount county in favor Of
Capt. Rowan for state senator.
The day being very damp and dis.
agreeable, and the length OF time to
make the canvass being 20 great, on
motion the nomination OF IA candidate
for representative was postponed until
future time, at the call Of the execu.
tive committee.
Circuit court also convened yester-
day, Hon. Samuel a. Rodgers presid-
ing. The judge IL making himself
good reputation with our people. His
social and affable msuDers OFF tie
bench, his decision and integrity on
the bench, and his fearless adminis-
tratlon Of the law makes him quite o
favorite with our people.
The Ommencement exercises OF
Maryville college are now In progress
Last evening Rev. II. Il, SiurgS, Of
Knoxville, delivered the annual ad-
dress 10 the Adelphic union literary
society. The society WAS presided over

is given in Enthusiastically impera>
tive words. We have seen how, in
Wilson county, by brute force Of
numbers, they crowded the corr
poral's guard of state credit demo-
Gratis to the wall, and the same pro-
gramme can be carried out in two
thirds of the counties of Middle and
West Tennessee, if they possess
men who can lead the rank.
The people Of East Tennessee
can hardly appreciate the state Of
affairs in the other two grand d.
visions of the state. In every in
land county which does not contain
one large town, the people are
overwhelmingly for Savage and his
tribe. just so sure as the election
is held will these Counties return
repudiationists to the legislature,
unless coalition between the state
credit men of both parties is made,
and even then, in many assembly
districts, they will win the battle.
If they elect majority, the result
can not be doubtful. Unless we
can manage to elect an honest exec
utive our state debt, with the excep-
ton of about 100000, will be
repudiated just SO certain as the sun
shall rise on meeting day.
In view of these facts it behooves
the men who love the honor of their
state to exercise a most judicious
caution in nominating candidates for
the legislature. We believe that
every district in East Tennessee, in
fuenced by our present strong pub
lie opinion, can elect an honest man
to represent it. If care is taken
to nominate good men, not
skillful politicians, but good,
honest, pure, straightforward
men, we .hink that there
is no doubt on this point. If such
is the case, it is needless to argue
that such care should be used, for it
will appear the bounden duty of the
people to do so. Exact from every
candidate for the nomination most
solemn pledge that when the fight
comes he will be on the side OF
truth and honor. When this is
done, select the man best qualified
to meet in the committee room and
on the floor the champions of repu-
diation. Clear headed business
men, who join with this quality an
aptitude to tell what they know and
pelleve, all Usllvr Vhings Dring vqun',
would be best. Let this be done
and let them be elected, and then
our work is done. The remaining
is in the hands of the God of hon.
esty, truth and justice and He will
in the end prevail.

THE BALLOT FOR WOMEN.

A delegation of women called upon
General Hancock day or two ago, aud
Mrs. Lilly Devereux Blake said they
come TO ask him what hope the Woman
Suffrage party might entertain In case
any measure came before Kim as Presi
dent which bore upon granting women
the ballot. The General replied that
the woman suffrage movement was
growing one and that everything that
tednered toward the ameloration Of wo
mans condition had his sympathy. In
the coarse of conversation he said that
women should be paid equally with men
for the same kind OF work performed.
and observed that when he first went 10
school in NorriStown, TO public school
existed. His brothers and himself at
tended private academy. As soon,
however, as public schools became es
tablished, his father sent his boys 10 one
OF them, and several wealthy neighbors
did the same, as an example TO those
who might feel ashamed 10 seek free
education for their children. The Con
eral remarked that the teachers were
then exclusively men, aud he was pleas
cd to see how extensively women had
become employed as such and how Of
fcIent they generally were.
Mrs. Slocum said that the delegation
desired q decided expression from him
rs TO whether he would or would not
veto any measure favorable to woman
suffrage that might come before hlm as
President The General replied that if
such measure was voted upon by Con.
Cress as q constitutional amondmcn, it
would not come before tho President.
If, however, Congress accorded women
the right 10 vote III the District OF Co
lumbia he certainly would offer no oh
struction.
Mrs. Blake asked if he considered
women as people" "Undoubtedly,"
replied the General; "hc would be bold
man who would undertake TO say they
were not" "Then General, said Mrs.
Blake, 1--WE ask nothing more than what
you say in your letter of acceptance. IL
is only by full vote, free ballot and
fair count that tho people can rule in
fact as required by the theory of our
government.
81 am perfectly willing" said Gencr-
al Hancock, "that you sh ould say thnt |
take my stand on that paragraph in my
letter of acceptance"
During a general conversation Gen
cral Hancock expressed much interest
in the prospect of women taking part
in the Presidential campaign, aud asked
what their plans were for canvassing.
The delegation departed well pleased
with their reception.

I WOULD respectfully call the attention

BONE PHOSPHATE OF LIME for the
fall of 1850.
This Phosphate so universally known
throughout the county will be guaran-
tecd in good drilling order. The Pacific
so thoroughly tested alongside of high
grade phoSphates thati is no more an
experiment but n demonstrated fact that
farmers save from ten to fifteen dollars
per ton by sowing the PACIFIC DIS
SOLVED BONE PHOSPHATE OF LIME
instead Of an article costing 4 high price.
We also claim good results where it i
used on corn, and for grass it has no equal,
producing a good healthy growth Of clo-
yer wherever used. l will also have on
hand a lower grade Of goods which l can
sell at a less price than the Pacific goods.
The above Phosphate will be offered at
Vancleyesville by Licklider & Mckee ;
Kerncysville by r. IIomsher: Harpcr's
Ferry by James Englc; Shepherdstown
by G. r. Licklidcr; all orders placed in

A CLEAR.RECORD.

Character, good or bad cannot be
hidden. There never was man that
lived FIVE years in a community that
was not generally appraised at all he
was worth. a bad character passed it.
self off for good one! AS well might
foul stencil try and pass itself of as q
grateful perfume 4 bad character will
stain through all rosewood amiabilities,
mahoganized manners, and show the
vulgar wood No one ever did or could
''steal the livery of heaven to serve the
devil in,' but wha: it was soon discoy-
cred that the garment did not fit him or
he did not know how TO wear it natur-
ally. On the contrary, many good men
have been unjustly accused; but they
generally live down SANDER. Who has
never felt the lash of scurrilous tongue!
Who has never had his best motives
suspiciously scrutinized? But YOU may
settle it as q rule that no mans reputa-
tion can be seriously hurt for o great
length Of time SO long as his character
is sound and good. a locomotive may
run over it, but it will be as 1.-the and
supple the next day as if nothing had
happened But if the character is had
the slightest jar may dash Interpolation
into q thousand atoms. a man who is
enshrined in the conscious purity Of his
desires, and rectitude of his acts and in
tentions, can never be badly wounded.
Keen edged lies and calumnies may
make the blood fly from his reputation,
and people who do not know mis- worth
may think he will soon bleed to death,
and maIvels TO see how quickly the
wound heals. His character never can
be seriously hurt. 1t is the man Of
doubtful character who can be ruined by
evil speaking.
