Grant and Obeatham,

A gentleman who had many expert
ences while Gen. Grant was stationed
at Cairo told a representative of the
Union yesterday morning an interest
ing but brief story of the meeting oil
Gen. b. T. Cheatham and the late eX-
president Although they had been in
the Mexican war, they had never be
come acquainted with each other until
under a nag of truce at Belmont. il 50
happened that the two generals got tC
talking about the old times in Mexico
So deeply absorbed in the subject did
they become that the clock had struck
II and and 2. They were unmindful
of the fact that Adjt. Gen. Porter and
Gen. Cheatham's bOdy-guard had been
awaiting his temperance during all
these hours of friendly talk. Adjt
Gen. Porter, since twice elected COVER
nor and now assistant United States
secretary of state, had frequently sent
for Gen, Cheatham, but there was no
other response than that OF 81 will be
on hand directly" When the last app
peal was made, Gen. Grant impatiently
inquired:
"Who IS this man wbo so frequently
asks you to take leave of me?"
"It is my adjutant general" respond
ed Gen. Cheatham.
"And his name ?" queTied Gen. Grant.
"Adjt. Gen. james ID. Porter" re-
turned Gen. Cheatham.
"And who in the - is Adjt. Gen.
Porter, asked Gen. Grant.
"a soldier from Tennessee, said Gen.
Cheatham, "and every inch gentle
man man who, if he lives through
the war, will have a most brilliant ca
reer before him; a man who will be
heard from in the future, and mari; nay
word for it,"
After few minutes OF further con-
versation Gen. Cheatham left the boat
which ateamed up to Gen. Grants
headquarters at Cairo Union.

Is Nero EnnalitH Demooracy2

The American is trying to force
negro social equality. And not on
ly this, but it is trying to make
such a thing democracy. 1t asserts
that the negroes do not get their
social rights and it calls on them to
help the ''democrats" God save the
mark } establish a railroad commls-
sion that viii give them equal ac-
cess to the sleeper and the ladies'
car. But a few weeks ago 1t was
soldering over the poor farmer and
shipper and demanding protection
for them against railroad extortions.
Now it wants a commission that
will equalize the races in the parlor
car. The American well knows
that this thing is fraught with dir
est danger. 1t knows that white
people will not permit it and ne
groes do not expect it, and yet it
dares endanger the public safety by
calling up a question that will lead
to anarchy and bloodshed if at
tempted. 1t does it not for love OF
the negro nor for justices sake
the only two tenable reasons that
could prompt it-but it does it to
gain recruits to itself from ignOr-
ant and daring negroes to help 1T
and its men seize and hold the Off
ces in Tennessee. The CITIZEN for
months has watched and warned
against the dangerous heresies and
demagOgIc teachings of the Ameri-
can, but we never thought it would
descend to such depths. We can
not believe Gov. Bate or Senator
Harris or Judge Wright, or the hosts
of chivalrous gentlemen who have
been silently acquiescing in the de-
viOns declarations of this feather
Drained organ rather than endanger
the party organization by denounc-
ing it, can keep still or hesitate to
denounce this last filthy craze. The
American imputes such ideas to
them by claiming that this is demo
cracy, It is the organ and they are
the party leaders. Do they endorse
it? Is democracy come to that?

What Killed Alexandria, Va.

A visitor to Alexandria a few days
since was much impressed with the
loneliness of the place, and asked ma
tive what made the city so dead,
"YOu see them big factory build
ings," said the loquaciOus Virginian,
''welI, thar was a company formed by
some northerners to take them build
ings, fix 'em up in shape and run big
cotton mill. They bad the money TO do
it, Them buildings had been idle for
years. They were put up befo' the wah
and the city had to buy 'em in for taxes.
Everything was Jead fiat and the Yam
KEGS thought they ought to have the
place at cheap rent for five years, be-
ing as they was Xperimenting with
their own money. They'd a brung 500
people here and would a given our
folks something to DO besides. Dye
'spose they got any encouragement :
Not bit of it. Our council jest run
up the rent to the top notch. 1t
amounted to sayin' You can't have
them buildings at no price, So the
cotton mill fell through, and them
buildings hasn't had tenant to this
day. That's only one case. Every
Yankee that came here to put up his
money and do something we froze out.
BY and by they got tired trying End
they cult. Now we'd liz e to get 'em
to come here, buHthey won't do it, It's
too late. We're dead for fact,stranger.'

The sillH Amerioanla SIM Oharras.

The American is a traitor in the
democratic camp, insincere, unfair
and dishonest politically, and is en-
gagged in a scheme to bring on a
race conflict wherein men, women
and children may be killed, mobs
and riots encouraged and lawsuits
and bitter fights inaugurated. 1t
openly and boldly advocates negro
social equality and declares it is
democratic doctrine, and then pro
ceeds, to pick out few gentlemen
in Tennessee who are bold and hon
est enough to declare their con-
victions and falsely styles them sin
dependents" The fact is, they are
the patriots and the American is a
traitor. 1t not only openly es-
pouses these hOrrid things, but if
adds to the enormity of such an
espousal the guilt of insincerity
1t would precipitate race conflicts
and endanger the public safety for
the price of its own lease of power
upon an issue which is false upon
its face and which it does not be
lieve in. These so-called indepen-
dents it pursues for the purpose 81
neutralizing the effect of their out.
spoken and honest democratic view,
and because they are decent enough
to oppose its traitOrous and selfish
demagogy. Relinquishlng not one
ioGa of true democratic principle
and declaring his reverence for the
traditions of the democratic fathers
and his readiness to take up arms
whenever the party calls its sons tc
duty, the editor Of the CITIzEN
spits upon and despises the silly
American and its silly charge thai
he is independent" He despises
such (leck of democracy as the
Americans and no amount of mis-
representation can force him to sub
scribe to the silly and false an6
ruinOus outrageous things which il
matches up and calls democracy.

Isle of Jersey.

The Island of Jersey contains
about forty-six square miles, or 49,
900 acres. 1t supports 10000 peo-
pie and 10000 cattle, and exports
annually over 1000 head. This is
about two persons to an acre, one
cow to two acres, and one COW ex-
ported to every ten acres.
Where 1900 cattle are kept on
such small territory, and rent is
over forty-three dollars per acre,
every farmer works with his own
hands. Instead of the island being
eaten up with COWS, and the farmers
beggars, it is a little garden thickly
strewn With good houses; and pow
ertv is almost unknown. The beef
for the people is imported. They
do not raise a bullock nor make a
cheese.
The Jersey gives richer milk and
Yields more butter in proportion to
her size and the amount of food
consumed than any other COW. Her
average weight is 700 pounds; and
many COWS yearly make more than
half their weight in butter. She
comes into milk very early, is east
ly managed even by children, and
is equally at home in hot or cold
weather. Much of the prosperity
of Jersey is due to the high price
paid for her annual export of 1000
cows Rural New Yorker.

Let the NEGRO Remain Republican

The CITIZENS position upon the
new phase of So called democracy in
Tennessee shall not be misunder-
stood. White democrats whipped
the republican party and gained con
troll in Tennessee. While we were
doing it we appealed to the negro
TO fall in line with the men among
they whom live. They steadily re-
fused and preferred to ally them
selves with and assist our despoilers
and the south's enemies. They
made their bed. Let them lie on
it. We preferred then and prefer
now that they should not antago-
nize us, but we owe them nothing
and there is no reason why we
should surrender our manhood and
by appealing to their cupidity by
the same kind of filthy and deceit
full representation that were so de
spisingly used by republicans and
which we have so often character
lied as infamous seek to induce
them to become democrats at this
late day. Democracy is triumphant
now, much to the chagrin and over
the bitter opposition of Mr.. Niger.
He did it blindly and ignorantly
and if he will come up and confess
his sins Wen forgive him and allow
him to sit on the back bench and
see the loyal veterans who thrashed
him and his political deceivers eat
the chicken pie and wear the Off
cial robes. Mr.. Merrill and Mr..
Nertrees may hug and slobber over
him until they get sick, but the CIT
IzEN protests that they do not rep
resent democracy. They are silly
enough to hope after twenty years
experience that convinces to
the contrary that the negro is to DE
slobbered into the democratic party.
If he comes in at the greasy crack
opened by the American, the de
cent democrats will kick him and
his artful handlers into the gutter
1t is time for Tennessee democracy
TO purge itself.

There is one matter to be care
fully weighed. Statements differ as
to whether prohibition prohibits,
and we see 1t continually stated
that IN all the prohibition states the
law is eyaded easily and whisky is
TO be had anywhere. Before Ten
nessee surrenders her four mile law
for something she thinks is better,
she had better ascertain exactly
whether or not it Is better 1t is
universally conceded that this law
has accomplished more good than
any that ever graced our statute
books aud before we start out for
better one we had better see that it
is really better We are rather in
clined to think prohibition adVisa-
bic. but it should be thoughtfuliy
determined and not rushed into
heedlessly.

Death of Gen. Grant.

Gen. Grant died last Thursday
morning at about s O'Clock. He
gradually sank away without strug
ole or pain. The remains will be
buried.in Riverside Park, New York,
and are now lying in state. The
president has proclaimed it ma
tional funeral and all flags are at
half mast. The expressions of sOr-
row are universal and sincere. 1t
is almost generally believed that
the greatest soldier of modern times
perhaps the peer of any that
have lived-now lies awaiting the
last attention. He was great in eV-
erything he undertook, if we meas
ure a mans greatness by the de
gree OF success and mOmentOus re-
suits that follow his efforts. He
never failed to meet any emergency
and was always equal to any occa-
sion. The south sincerely mourns
his sad death. He suffered himself
advised against us in the days of
his presidency, but we have never
forgotten that at the supreme mo-
ment of peril he, refusing to take
Lees prOfered sword, gave the
most magnanimOus terms to the
conquered, and afterwards when
treachery was proposed he sternly
rebuked Stanton and sturdily an,
nounced that his faith was pledged
and his body would be interposed
as a barrier in defense of the terms
he had made. And then in the last
days-a time when all men get hon
est with the whole world-he spoke
in kindest terms Of the south, and
the impulsive south, always ready
to forgive and embrace, received his
warm expressions in kindest grace
and now weeps at the bier of our
common country's greatest son.
