AFTER most improbable session
of 14S DAYS, which cost the State some
$4,000, the Legislature has adjourn
ed and the members are again with
their constituencies, who are exceed
ingly forbearing If they do not hold
them to the strictest account and pun.
ish them according to their deserts,
even If il be unto death. The session,
besides being the longest on record,
was far greater failure than the no.
torious grange Legislature Of few
years ago. They have simply done
those things that they ought not to
to have done, and have left undone
those that that they ought TO have
done, and there is no help in them.
As body they have been weak, stu
pid and cowardly. They have tried
to dodge every responsibility, and
have acted from beginning to end as il
they belonged body and soul to Black
burn. After much opposition, a reso-
luton requiring the Secretary ofState
to furnish list Of the pardons and re-
missions granted under the pres
ent administration was passed, but
not until each man that voted for it,
had made humble excuse TO the royal
tycoon for voting for it, and then
they adjourn without forcing him to
obey that resolution. Our appeal for
an investigation of the Governors
low flung and undetermined offer of
immunity to any one that might kill
us, Notwithstanding we stated the
names of our witnesses and what we
could prove by them, and were backed
up in our appeal by every paper Of
standing in the State, was ignored
further than a little by a few men,
bers. They we're afraid to do what
they knew to be their duty for fear that
it might rifle the old loon and prevent
him from acceding to the petitions that
nearly every one had for the pardon
of some favorite or client, which they
had been bribed to obtain. So be-
cause of moral cowardice and to secure
private ends, they refuse to investi-
gate charges against him, which could
be proven sufficiently, not only to
impeach him but land him in bas
tile. Governor Blackburn has been
guilty of a most shameful, cowardly
and dirty outrage against a private
citizen, who has offended him by crit
icising his course, and the Legislature
is particeps criminis in the matter.
We can stand it however, if the Gov
ernor and his friends can, conscious
that we are fully sustained both by
the press and public, while he stands
in the attitude of not only inviting,
but offering to pay for murder and
violence.

SENATOR john ID. FooLE, Of Jeb-

away up with the best men in the
Senate, had a very excellent law
passed. just before adjournment Mon
day. II prohibits under a fine Of not
less than 500 nor more than $500 any
person from calling out Colonel" on
any street Of the towns and cities Of
this State. In this day Of cheap mil
itary titles given by the Governor for
some personal favor either in the past
or to be rendered in the future, the
Senator has very wisely considered
the danger that such call would in
many instances create, by the turning
Of nine.tenths Of the heads on a street,
thereby causing the owners to either
break their necks or collide with such
force against another pedestrian as TO
knock his brains out. The law took
effect on its passage, and we now give
full warning so that every body can
take notice and govern himself &C.

ChaitanOose's Great Enterprise
NaghYille American.

We were not little rejoicod wher
we picked up the Chattanooga Times
yesterday, and saw that a certain gen.
tleman at Chattanooga, in connection
with few others, had decided upou
building a first class 100 ton furnace
at Chattanooga. The facts published
elsewhere show the organization to be
a first rate one, and that the work will
be commenced in a few days, the
capital all being raised. The country
may understand that this will be a
success.
Captain Doud, who seems to be at
the head Of it, is among the best
furnace builders in the United States.
He built tho Cowan furnace, which
perhaps has no equal for the money
Invested; certainly nothing has ever
beat its work.
Stockholders may rely with abso
lutte certainty upon any furnace built
by Captain DOud, and, besides, he

fidelity in the discharge Of a trust
may be relied on with the fifth .;

Every furnace erected in Tennessee
like this may be looked upon &C q
patent for converting coal, nre and
limestone, dug ont of the hills, into
gold and silver. We only lack iron
furnaces to make rs the richest State
in the Union. We sincerely and cor

clerk and a thorough parliamentariau
He has had much experience in diff

and reliable. The journals he has
made up for former legislatures are
models Of conciseness and correctness
In the late canvass he took an active
part for the Democratic cause from
the FIRST and rendered valuable aid to
to the party. He has fine voice for
a hall or in the open air, aud it was
used with good effect this fall on the
stump. Mr.. Wade deserves we'll at
the hands Of the party. No better
man for the place can be found in the
State. 1t may not be out of place to
say that although comparatively
young mon he has a large family and
needs this Office. The war swept
away his fathers estate aud when he
came home boyish veteran from
North Carolina he had to start at the
bottom Of the ladder and did not hes
itate nor does he now to put his hand
to the plow handles and earn a liv,

IHE lunketlng committee seems tc
be learning something after all. L
appears that the members have become
disgusted with the outlet scheme, anG
will probably make report in favor
of the improvement system already
adopted. The presence of Captain
Tom Leathers and Captain Johr
Cowdon has no doubt helped to iDjurt
the cause they advocated with sc
much zeal. Cowdon is an old crank
harmless and we'll meaning it is true
but decimal fraction of cypher SC
far as river improvements are con
cerned for all that. He was on hand
yesterday with his charts, like q
humble bee around a molassei
barrel, and the more he
buzzed and bored the worse it was for
his scheme. He got huffy when the
committee asked too many searching
qeustions. The space which this mild
hammered, soft headed, old gentleman
has occupied in the public prints for
some years past is something phenom
enal. he is not a scholar, not a
scientist, not an engineer, not prac-
tical man in any sense and never sue
ceeded at anything in his life except
to get his name before tho country.
Where he raises the wind is a matter oil
especial wonder to all who know any
thing Of him. If he had kept
away from the committee it would
have been better for him. He is dead
match for the old woman in one Of
Dickens novels, who never failed to
remark when introduced, that if her
late husband had not made invest
ments in Peruvian silver mines, which
turned out badly, circumstances would
have been very different with her.
Cowdon's silver mines are in the bot
tom Of the Barataria canal, and will
stay there until some Moses comes
along to divide the waters. As long
as nobody suffered but the credulOus
stockholders in Cowden's visionary
schemes we had nothing to say. Thai
was their look out, not ours, but
when the old crank got an
