| An East Tennessee correspondent of the
| Morning World writes: "You NAV depepd
| upon it General Bate will get more votes
than Wright and Wilson combined. two
years ago."
| The congressional convention for the Third
district nominated General G. g. DibrelI on
The thirty fifth ballot, and on motion of the
non. u. 3. Snodgrsss his nomination was
mad> unanimous.
General Bate has opened the campaign
| way that maketh sick the heart OF his pre-
| sumpLuous opponents for governor of Ten
nessee.-Sequatchie Advance.
A cheer and a shout will 90 up from
Thousand warm and tTue-hearted Democrats
in Benton county when they see the name OF
their gallant leader flying IT the head of the
columns of the HeraLd-Cdmden Herald.
We think it safe to say not single Fus-
sell man can be found in DeKalb. If Bess-
ley gets any vote at all it will be small,
while Hawkins will probably get 1000, the
Republican strength, and Bate 1900 or 1000.
--SmithulEe Indez.
General Bate will not have an oppor-
tunity OF meeting the natural enemy,
Hawkins, but he will meet thousands OF good,
sound Democrats who will vote for him and
the platform he stands upon, and elect hin
in spite of the unholy slliance.-Doper
Courier.
The Congressional Convention will meet at
Milan next Thursday, the 7lh instant. We
trust IT'S iabors viii result in placing The
Hon. w. E. Lynn upon the track as the
nominee. large and enthusiastic delega-
ton will go from this county to work for his
nonination.-RipLcy Ne,cs.
The readjuster mansgers have been forced
to recognize the fact that many low-tax men
are leaving Bate and going 10 the support of
Beasley. The organs are therefore pitching
into Beasley's record with a view of checking
the low-tax detection from their ranks

In bis speech st Paris last Saturday, Fus
sell, the 90 called Democratic candidate for
governor, said: ''The Democratic party is
the hope OF the nation, and upon the Dsmoc
racy OF Tennessee depends the salvation of
the National Democracy in 1884" Ii this
is true Joseph ought to quit his wild goose
chase and come out for Bate.-Bristol Courier.
General Bate will be the next governor of
Tennessee. Even the Fussellites do not deny
this fact, and the only thing they can hope
to do is to secure the loss of Democratic
votes for Hawkins's interest. Perhaps if
Esop still lived he could now find the op-
portuniiy OF writing a revised story of "the
dog in the manger."-McNairy County Sun.
The Democratic convention of Monday
nominated Major P. I. Glass on the first bal
lot as its candidate for the lower branch OF
the next General Assembly. This was be-
fling compliment 10 one OF the firmest and
most intelligent and consistent members Of
the party in West Tennessee, which was duly
appreciated by himself and friends.-RipIey
Ne,cs.
General Bate has stated very distinctly
that he favors the four-mile Law and does
not seek to repeal it. He has also, time and
again, stated that he was not member of u
whisky ring, or any other sort of a ring.
The word of this truthful and frank man
has never been doubted anywhere, and by
anybody. Why, then, should Fuss ell, in his
bowling for hell and hemp, reiterate what
he knows to be incorrect? His manhood

The American gave out the agreeable in
telligence that r. r. Butler is in New York
city trying to dispose of his iron property,
(which is very valuable" There is not a
man in this State who does not know that
the iron king is experimenting the feeble
efforts of the Funding Board under the sixty
and-six act. He walks around the metro
politan city with the great seal of Tennessee
in his pantaloons pocket.-Ndshvils World
The Hon. John F. House said, in his
Clsrksville speech, that after he read Sens-
tor Jackson's speech at the same point,
wherein he declared that senator's had urged
upon him TO 90 TO Tennessee and keep the
column up for Fussell or Hawkins, he talked
with senators who declared that there was
not Democrat in Washington City who was
not for Bate. Harris and House fatty deny
the statement of Jackson. 1t is a case OF
two to one. We believe the couple.-Ndsh-
vile World.
The outlook in Tennessee is very favora-
BILE for the election of General Bate, the
regular Democratic nominee for governor.
His cause is securing new recruits every day,
no less than three newspapers that had for
merly supported FusseIl, the Democratic
bolter, having placed Bates name at the
head OF their columns during the last few
days. 1t is now certain that Bate will secure
the nearly unanimous Democratic vote in
East and West Tennessee, while in Middle
Tennessee FusselPs support is weak, and
growing weaker.-Nep Orleans Tines Democrat.
The boilers have worried and fretted over
the statement that the National Democracy
utterly condemn their course. For come
days Senator Jackson tried 10 remove the
pressure by denial. The great troubl.
about Jackson's denial is that he gives no
names or dates. Harris aud House give
names and dates that completely isolate
Jackson and his disturbed friends. They
appreciate the disgrace of their position,
and that of itself shows that they are not
lost 10 all sense of shame.-NashuiHe Void.
Our county convention on Monday last, by
a unanimous vote, instructed the delegates
from this county 10 the Senatorial Gonveu-
ton, which meets at Brownsville on the 18th
instant, TO cast the vote of the county solidly
for DR.. John ]. Alston as our first choice for
senator from this district. This action was
fitting compliment TO worthy gentleman,
and q Democrat who has been untiTing in
his efforts during the past few months to re-
unite and solidify the discordant political
Democratic county.-RipLey NeWs.
When Senator Jackson left the Senate
chamber to go to Clarksville and speak, he
asked his colleague, Senator Harris, TO an
nounce his pair with Plumb, of Kansas,
and also keep up his record. That is 10
say, he requested his colleague to vote him
on every question just as if he were
simou-p1re Democrat. He said never
a word TO Senator Harris about his going
to q stump-spesking, but minated that
it was trip on urgent business. Senator
Harris knew no better until he got his |
World and found out that Jackson was at the |
Clsrksville pow-wow, and giving himself and
House and others some OF Fussell's hell and
hemp. The junior senator ought at least TO |
have refrained from assaultiug his col |
league, who was faithfully watching over the |
record of an absent friend. Isham G. Harris |
is a grand character. he is SO manly, gen.
erous. true and noble that he would have |
perished before he would have treated an
enemy in th hatmanner.-Nashu'ae at World.
In the Tenth district the Republicans are
