The Dangers Ahead.

We must not conceal from our
own eyes and suppress the dan
gers that are ahead. Democracy is
diseased almost to death in Tenn
essee. From forty thousand ma
jority we have come to a Repcbli-
can governor and almosta majority
against US in the Assembly. Why?
Because we split upon the debt
question. Is the debt question out
of tn e way? There lies the danger.
Who will say it is? a prominent
man told the writer the other day
that he wished to keep the question
open for the next canvass. Thou
sands of men in Tennensee are la
boring to keep it open. Who can
deny that to keepit open is to muir
der Democracy? If the question
enters the canvass next year, the
result will be a Republican victo-

Is there a leader who can be trust

and lead them safely beyond the

not a mass convention of the Dem

Nashville to formulate a truce
and construct an intermediate plat

The integrity ofthe Democratic par

The tears of thousands of the bank

HIS LAST MOMENTS.

New York, September 19.-The Tel

dents bedside, holding his poor enact
ated hand in her own, and watching.
with anguish unutterable, the fast van
ishing sands of life, sat his faithful, de-
voted wife during the closing hours of
the Presidents career. Around him
were other weeping friends and physi-
clans, lamenting their powerlessness in
the presence of the dark angel Of death.
Toward the last the mind of the suffer
er wandered. He was once more
back in Mentor, amid the scenes where
the happiest hours of his life were
spent. He sat in the dear old home
stead again, with loved ones around
him, an aged mother, so proud of her
big boy, and faithful wife and be
loved children, 1t was blissful dream
that robbed death of its terrors, and
rendered the dying man for moment
unconscious of the cruel rending of his
once vigorous frame that was constant
ly going on. The moan of the restless
ocean mingled with the sobs of loved
ones as the lamp of life fickered and
went out forever. Nearly every one
around the President chung to hope to
the last and refused to credit the ap.
preach of death until the shadow deep
ened and the destroyer's presence could
be no longer uhfelt. Flags hang a
halfmast from every house on Ocear
avenue, and the gayety ofthis favorit'
watering place is followed by deepes
gloom. The struggle is over, ant
death is victor.

The talk OF Lynching.

Guiteau has been revived and as
the news from the President grows
worse, the threats are louder. In the
crowds around the bulletins, it is not
uncommon to hear men say that if the
news comes that the President is dead,
they are in favor Of taking Guiteau
from Jail and hanging him in mediately.
This sentiment finds supporters, but
there does not seem yet to be any or
ganized preparations toward putting
this threat into execution. The
authorities realize that there may
be danger, and have quietly taken
measures to prevent any success
full attempt to drag Guiteau from
jail. The military forces are kept
ready for prompt use, and the mill
tia of the district are prepared tC
respond to call, if they are need
ed. 1t would be a difficult job fol
a mob to reach the interior Of the
Jail, even though there was NJ
armed resistance. 1t is a sole
building, and well guarded. There
is belief, however, that if the new
of the Presidents death comes her
at night, while most of the popula
ton are on the streets, that it woul
not require much to rally crow
for an attempt on the Jail to get a
Guiteau.
