How a Tennessee Lad Met
Death Before DishOnOr.

This incident connected with the
execution of Sam Davis, at Pulaski,
during the civil war, may not be
known to all of your readers. The
subject was one OF the truest
and bravest of men. Although a
mere boy he had courage of Ney,
and was justly styled the bravest of
the brave. He was ever ready for
duty, and seemed to court danger.
In June, 1863, he was detailed as a
scout, by Gen. Bragg, to ascertain
the strength of the Notifications
around Nashville, with other impor-
tant information. Having obtained
diagraml of the forts and other
matters of interest from some per-
son ;he incautiously hung on the enc
my's flank, then moving from Mem
phis to Chattanooga. He was cap
tured, and on his person was found
papers which condemned him as 3
spy. The Indifference with which he
received his sentence and his ex-
treme youth won the admiration Of
those who had passed sentence
When told by the officer in COM
mand that he would be granted
pardon, provided he would tell from
whom he got the papers, his reply
was that he would carry that secret
to his grave. The pledge he had
made he would seal with his death,
telling those who besought him to
expose his informant and thereby
save his life that on no condition
would he betray the party. He
said the one fir ON whom he obtain
the papers would live to do the con-
federacy more good than he could.
He was hanged at Pulaski, Tenn,
in the fall of 1868, and met his
death like true soldier, with the
sympathies and admiration of those
who condemned and executed him.
We, of the First Tennessee regi-
ment, especially the Rutherford
Rifles, should ever keep his memory
green. Although not exceeding
20 years of age, we find in him one
who held his word paramount to
his life. The public is ignorant
who was his confederate. Perhaps
it will never belknown. The war of
1875 had its Haynes, its Hale and
others. In the war of the rebellion
the First Tennessee, Company l.
had its Sam Davis.-American'
The CITIZEN several months ago
ascertained and published the name
of Sam Davis infermant-the man
for whom he gave his life. 1t was
the late Uncle Bob English, one OF
the Oldest and best citizens of Giles,
who sheltered Davis and gave him
the information, which he in turn
got from negro who came out of
the lines.

Marquis OfSaIiSbury.

Coming to the front as the pre-
mier of England, succeeding such
illustrious men as the late incom-
parable Beaconsfield and the sturdy
Gladstone, the eyes of the world
are fixed upon him. The Marquis
of Salisbury, the Rt. Hon. Robert
Arthur Talbot Gascoigne Cecil, eld-
est surviving son of the second
Marquis of Salisbury, born at Hat
field in 1880, was educated at Eton
and Christ Church, Oxford, where
he graduated, and was elected a
Fellow of All Souls College. His
lGrdship, who is deputy lieutenant
for Middlesex, represented Stamford
in the house of commons as a con-
servative from August, 1858, until
1868, when he succeeded to the
marquisate on the death of his IA
Their. While in the lower house he
was known as Lord Robert Cecil
until the decease of his elder broth
er, when he assumed the courtesy
title of ViscOunt CranbOrne. His
lordship takes an active part in all
public measures which affect the in
terests of the established church,
and in the leading church of Eng
land institutions. The Marquis is
understood to be an extensive con
tributor to the Quarterly Review
and to other periodicals, In Lord
Derby's third administration he
was, in July, 1866, appointed secre-
tary of state for India, which
post he resigned ON account of a
digerence in opinion respecting the
reform bill March 2, 1867. On Nov.
u, 1869, he was elected Chancellor
of the University of Oxford, in sue
cession to the late Earl of Derby.
AS an orator the Marquis of Sails
bury is especially brilliant, and has
that magnetism which characterizes
our own Mr.. Blaine, He has not,
however, that reputation as de
bator that marks Beaconsfield or
Gladstone. He is the leader of the
tory forces, and cherishes a vigor-
GUS foreign policy and entertains
the idea that the true strength of
England lies in extending her al
ready large possessions.

Revolutionary Tactics.

The republicans in the legisla-
ture again defied order and law last
Friday in boiling and breaking a
quorum right in the midst of sit
ting. This time it was in the
house. All other business had been
completed and the house was con-
sidering on its last reading the bill
to punish ballot box thieves and
suffers, when a notice was made
to substitute the registration bill.
All manner of motions of order and
delay were interposed by the repub-
licans but the filibusterers were
about to be cornered, and just as
the speaker ordered the vote on the
previous question the republicans in
a body grabbed their hats and rush
ed pell over benches and
chairs and out at the door, leaving
only Butler, Rhum and Coldwell
behind and the house without a
quorum. The speaker issued war
rants for their arrest but by some
kind OF overlooksion they were per-
mitted to leave the city. The extra
session was thus brought perempto-
rily to a close. Mr.. Butler had
sent his resignation in to the COVER
nor to take effect at 2 O'Clock but it
was not handed in until 8 and in
the meantime Mr.. Butler staid in
his seat and generated the skedad-
die. The governor sensibly declined
to accept his resignation.
If such practices as this are to be
tolerated, there is an end to orderly
government. While there may be
no written law prohibiting such &C.
ton, yet it is in the highest degree
reprehensible, revolutionary and
disgracefuL While we do not re-
cOgnize the great Importance of the
desired legislation, we consider the
tactics used to defeat it as disgrace
full and illegal. The men who die
it and the party that sustains then
should be punished by the law abid
ing people Of the land with an over
whelming expression of condemna
ton at the ballot box.

Our Legislators.

The action of Representatives
Rivers and Sanders on the more
important bills that came before
the legislature will be Of interest
They opposed the school law, salts
fed the changes were not demanded
and would be expensive.
They voted for the borrowing bill
under protest.
They supported the mechanics
lien law (failed TO pass) which had
specially good features. On the
school bill and this Mr.. Rivers took
pains to consult leading educators
and mechanics here.
On the redistricting bill, Mr..
Rivers saw its enormous defects
and tried to talk the committee in
to making the chancery division
smaller, but to no avail. He moved
to make the circuit out of William
son, Maury, Marshall, Lincoln,
Giles and Lawrence-a tip top Cir
cult, every county on the railroad
but it failed. He tried also to
reduce the chancery division, that
now stretches out like a creek, to
Williamson, Maury, Giles and Mar
SHALL terms a year-and was
voted down. Seeing that the sen
ate bill was even worse than the
house bill, and that the house
seemed determined to admit no
amendments, they voted for it,
The senate then substituted its
bill and on a motion to concur in
the house they voted no. 1t was
clear case of the worst kind of
gerrymandering.
They voted against the substltu-
ton of the registration bill for the
ballot box stuffing bill on parlIa-
men taTy grounds.
