Special to the Appeal.l
ATHENS, September 9.-Messrs. Baekins,
| Beasley and F1ssell reached this city early
this morning. No denomination was made
at the depot, there being only one man there,
who drove Hawkins away in ricketty con-
cern of buggy. Messrs. Fussel ahd Beasley
have by this time learned to battle with the
world alone, and they struggled across to the
| hotel. The recent rains have caused work to
suspend on the farms, and the farmer, if
they choose, were free TO see the show, but,
despite all THE, the. very greatest Indifference
has been displayed at every place the three
candidates have yet visited. 1t being SAtur-
| day, the famer's holiday, large attendance
was predicted, but at no time was there over
$50 men present. Outside of Knoxville this
is the largest crewd that has attended the
| show.
Fussell was unknown. OF course many
inquiries were made previous 10 his taking
the stsnd as to which was he. He took the
floor without introduction, and for some lit
tie time the crowd was left in the dark as to
whether it was Beasley or Fassell. After
bit his argument told the tale. Fussell has
a skp-blue scray book and continues to carry
his carpenters rule under his right thumb
He gives as one reason why Mrs. Folks
bonds should not be funded-that she gets 4
pension from the government. After being
repeatedly told that General Bate has de-
MED all connection with any whisky ring,
he continues by implication to connect Cen
eral Bate and the June convention with a
VIII sky ring. He took his seat without
sound of applause. 1t is said there were
Two Fussell men present.
Beasley spoke next. producing nothing
new. Everywhere BeasIey has spoken it is
said his argument has done Bates cause
good rather than harm.
Hawkins came to the front Haunting the
Cooke county circular to account for his
small crowds in East Tennessee, and finished
his ueeas speech eulogistic of the Republi- |
can party, with little or no appeal to reason.
When Hawkins finished his hrst speech the |
house was nearly Vacated.

Special Correspondence of the Appeal
KNOXVILLE, September Your West |
Tennesse readers no doubt would like TO 4
know something about the~sf ItHS of the /
gubernatoriai oUutest in Tennes see. think /
| am in position to give it Just as il is. /
Certainly l lave no desire to misrepresent |
the matter. Hence you and your readers
may rely implicitly upon any statements l
may make upon the subject.
First, a. to Knoxville. There are three
pronounced FusseIl men here-J. w. Cald-
well, L. K. Coruick, jr., and w. M. Cooke.
There are some eight or ten Others but they |
are reticent. III. III. Ingersoll boiled at
Nashville. Since then he has been as duub
as an oyster. 1t is said he is con the fence"
l put him down for Fussell. Outside of
Knoxville know of but one Fus-ell man,
and from a conversation had with him
day or two since l am satisfied he will yet
vote Tor Bate. Including the county, Fussell
cannot command exceeding fifty votes. In
deed, he cannot get that many. Bear this in
mind. Fussell made poor impression here,
and didn't make single vote-not one. His
Radical hearers did all the cheering he re-
ceived, and did what they could to bolster
him up.
Sullivan, Washington, Carter, Greene,
Hawkins, Hamblen, Granger, Sewer, Jeffsr-
SOD, Blount, Loudon, koane, Anderson,
Campbell, Claiborne, Monroe, McMinn,
Polk, Hamilton, Bradley, ETC., are s9lid for
Bate. In all the upper conties where Fus-
sell has spoken he was unfortunate enough
not TO made single vote. In fact, but very
few Democrats attended his meetings. Bate
thus far. has had large gatherings of the
people, who listened TO him attentively and,
withal, enthusiastically.
The boilers have been saying all the time
that reaction would follow as soou as their
speakers could get before the people. Well,
tussell has spoken at Bristol, Jonesboro,
Morristown, Messy Creek, cambridge, Knox
vile, Loudon, MadisonSille and Sweetwater,
and ii he has made a single convert am not
aware of it. utter the naked truth when l
say hat the feeling for Bate is stronger since
the appearance OF Fuiseil than it was before.
1t ia more intense. And you will find when
The votes are counted out in November that
East Tennessee will cast solid vote for Bate.
The Democrats of this section of the
State are supremely disgusted with the
courte OF Bailey and Jackson. They have
no sort of patience with them and condemn
them unsparingly. Bailey is justly charged
with producing the bolt in the party, and all
for his own personal aggrandizsment. He
is crazy TO get back TO the Senate, and doubt
less proposes to do so by the aid of the Re-
publican psrty, Poor cresturel He is
leaning upon broked reed. The Republi-
cans will never support him so long as there
is a chance for them to elect q Republican.
They have no idea of doing so. He seems
10 have special spite at Senator Harris, as
also Senator Jackson, Who is beiug
skinned alive by Senator Harris in West
Tennessee.
If you ask me what vote Fussell can
command in Est Tennessee, l answer not
500-say 500. Leaving out Chattanooga
he'll not get 200.
L0ter.-Since writing the above I learn
that the Nashville american has sgsin
changed trout and will support General
Bate. The Democracy of Tennessee will re-
joice at this. II was a misfortune to the
Democratic party and 10 itself that it took
the shoot il did. l have not get sscertained
the reasons of its recent tacking. Did il see
the handwriting on the wall? No matter;
it is all right now. Its present attitude will
create sensation, and will certainly strike
terror to the ranks of the boilers.
Had you learned that Democratic paper
is soon TO be started in Chattanooga This
is my information. 1t was found to be ne
cessity on account of the unreliability OF he
Times as a Democratic journal. That paper
can't be trusted. Never could and never
will be under its present management. Its
publisher and editor are both unreliable.
Chattanooga Is Republican city, aud they
pander to that element. EAST TENNESSEE.
