To the editor Of the Tribune we

that we are fast asleep. You may
avoid discussing the issue we have
forced upon you, for few days
past, by lodging. Sir, you may
slip away in the dark, and skulk
through alleys and by-ways and
avoid US, bat We do not intend you
shall back square out and walk off
erect, with your head up, in broad
daylight. If you dodge, we intend,
sir, that you shall do it dexterously,
so that you may gain some credit as
an ''artful dodger," if you gain
nothing else. This is no game of
hide-and.seek we are playing with
you, and, for your own sake, we
do not intend that you shall mortify
your best friends by first picking
quarrel and then walking off with,
out the slightest explanation or any
attempt whatever to Click" your

You said in your paper only few
mornings ago, just after it was made
public through the New York Sun
that Senator Bayard had made a
secession speech in 1861, that that
gentleman was practically out of

REPUTATION AND RASCAL
ITY.

The Maryville Democrat utters a
truism, when it says ''there can be
no compromise with repudiation and
rascality." 1t is true that such a
thing has been attempted, but it
has proven a fat failure in every
instance. When Gov. Marks was
nominated for Governor two years
ago this summer, it was an at
tempted compromise between right
and reputation, and although it
was temporarily successful, there is
not state credit man in Tennessee
who does not look upon that platN
form, and the means resorted
to for success, as disreputa-
Bile to those who were leaders in
the movement. And what has
been gained by it The repudia
tionists succeededin electing a COY
ernor, but what benefit has he been
to them He has not helped out of
single complication nor lightened
a single burden. Not a dollar of
the state debt has been paid nor is
it any nearer payment. Every
state bond that was out when Gov.
Marks came into office is out yet
and accommodating interest day by
day. The disgrace which rests
upon Tennessee is as black as it
ever was and ignorant persons may
suppose that We are suffering no
harm from it. tlf3s2-s
There are newspapers in the
state yet, however, that advocate
a further compromise with repudia-
ton and rascality. They advise
their party friends to avoid state is
sues in the canvass of this year,
and postpone the settlement of this
troublesome question to a more con-
venient season. 1t may be that the
people of Tennessee are willing to
compromise their character for honor
and integrity by dallying with re-
pudiation, but we trust not.

oughly fattened out your candidate
If it was, then, as you value your
reputation for discretion and cons
sistency, nevermore open your walls
of wrath to be emptied upon the
heads of Republicans because they
have insisted that secession was
crime
1t is true, you venture in a very
cautious way to approach this ques-
ton in your issue of yesterday
morning, when you say:
"The CHRONICLE asserts thai 'lhe
Democratic party has never dared TO
take presidential candidate from the
south, where ehe bulk of the demo,
cratic party is found This is very
readily explained. The democratic
party is a national and not a sectional
party"
0 tempors, O MOSES &! Just to
think, at time when we are en-
gagged in a kindly, honest endeavor
to lead you into the light of truth,
that you should make such an
egregious blunder as this ! Why, it
is absolutely discouraging, and were
| it not for the love we have for you,
we would at once give you over to
hardness of heart and reprobacy of
mind. Why, my dear sir, the dem>
ocratic party never was a national
party. 1t was a states rights par>
ty before the war when you were
| fighting it, and one of the reasons
for not trusting it then was that the
leaders believed and taught the doc
trine that state had the right to
secede from the union. National
indeed Why, sir, you take away
the solid south from the
democratic party q of to-day,
and there wouldn't be enough of it
left to make respectable corporal's
guard. Not sectional! Why the
democratic party ever since you were
a little Sunday school boy, long be-
fore you were converted to the ways
of darkness, lived, moved and had
its continual being in sectional is
sues. And if the democratic party
is such a national party, why is it
that its candidates for president
must always come from the North ?
This is hard nut. Can you crack
it? H9cI we 1a
Now, one word more for your own
private ear and We close the present
lesson; but you must stand still and
hear it, as We mean it for your own
good. When you are struck don't
wait whole week to hit back. Not
that we care particularly about it,
but people will think you devote too
much time to preparation, and it
might be suspected that you
write editorials on Sunday. This
would prejudice your case and
might do you injustice. Better
strike at once and oftener, even if
you don't strike SO hard. 1t gives
the appearances of zeal, and that is
a good thing, even in a bad cause.
But, if you will follow our advice
we hope yet to bring you out all
right.
