An Uncle of the President,
Living in Corinth, Miss.

Distinguished among the many
prominent and worthy men of the
name and kindred, the life Of Col.
Chas. Perry Polk, uncle of Presi,
dent James K. Polk, affords strk
ing example of all that is noble and
good.
Col. Polk Is the only surviving
son of Gen. Ezekiel Polk, of Revo-
lutionary fame. and COUSIN of the
late Gen. LeonIdas Polk, bishop OF
Louisiana. His wife was Miss
FIizhueh, of Virginia, and Capt.
w. w. Polk, of Canton, Miss, is
his eldest son; two others reside in
Tennessee. He has two own neph.
ews now living in Bolivar, Tenn,
Gen. K. P. Nicely and DR.. jackson
Nicely. Among his grand nephews
of the name are the Hon. raskei
Polk, of North Carolina, the late
Col. l.. l.. Polk. President National
Farmers Alliance. Oscar Polk, OF
Memphis, Tenn, and DIR. Mecklen
Polk, Chief Surgeon OF the Belle
vue Hospital, New York City.
Col. Polk is tall, dlgnified, IN
tellecIual man of seventy nine,
with noble, high bred face, and
quiet, unassuming manners. A
sufferer since his nineteenth year
from an abscess in the side, he has
never, during long and varied
lite, failed in the performance CT a
single duty, nor allowed a harsh
word TO escape his lips. HIS youth
and early manhood was passed
upon the estate near Bolivar
Tenn, inherited from his father.
Here, one of the largest cotton
planters in Tennessee, he was wide
ly known for his hospitality, high
morality and cIemencY to his slav
es. In the late war be served as
Chief of the Commissary Depart
ment, at CorInth, Miss.
Deprived of his large fortune by
the war and the treachery of others
he had, by honorable industry,
amassed a competency, when he
again lost all, this time by his de-
vOtion to the interests of a friend.
Upon the death of Mrs. Ex-Presi-
dent Polk, he refused to enter a
claim for the estate, which in the
opinion of his friends. whOuld Ia We
reverted to him under the provis
ion of the will.
At present, with his only daugh-
ter, Mrs. Hynman, he resides in
Corinth. Miss, honored and below
ed by all, not only for his exalted
private character, but Tor his disln-
terested public services, which were
many and great.
In all his trials, he bears himself
with a noble courage, and has a
kindly word for all.
There is a moral in the silent
heroism of his life, for "these are
the deeds which should not pass
away, aud names that must not
wither, though the earth foTgets her
empires with a lust decay"

A GREAT hue and cry is being
raised throughout Tennessee by the
friends of Buchanan, concerning
his treatment at the hands of de-
mocracy. His supporters claim
that he has been denied a second
term simply because he is q farmer
and represents the farming ele-
ment. Now, gentlemen, let us
look into this matter, calmly and
dispassionately-let us lay aside
prejudice aud come down to facts.
Whose fault is it that John p. Blu
chanan is not to-day the nominee
of the democratic party for govern
or of Tennessee? Time after time
he was called upon to declare him.
self concerning certain public ques-
tlons, in regard to which democracy
is unalterAb!y opposed. Some of
the best men in Tennessee went to
him and advised him to give ex-
preston to his views upon these
questions. But to all he turned a
deaf ear. Then what did he do +?
He wrote a letter to Tennesseeans
wIthdTa wing his name as a candi-
date before the democratic cOnven-
ton and announced himself an
independent candidate. Why did he
do this2 Simply because common
sense told him that to go before the
democratic convention without n
full expression on his part concern
ing the issues of the day, meant de-
feat. Certainly he could not ex-
pect the people of Tennessee, a ma
jorlty of whom are democrats, to
nominate man for governor who
opposes the principles of demOcra-
cy. Now, we ask again, whose
fault is il that John z. Buchanan
is not to-day the nominee of the
Democratic party in Tennessee for
governor? In our opinion, upon
his shoulders alone the blame rests.
We have said it before and we re-
peat 1t, that no true democrat will
vote for Buchanan. Think about
it, study 1t over and you will fnd
that we are right. Buchanan has
no CLAIMS whatever upon democra-
cY-he has broken every tie that
bound him to the democratic party,
and is now doing more, with one
exception, perhaps, than any other
man in Tennessee to disrupt it.

DEMOCRAT.

w. I. Ownby, republican cleo
tor for the state at large, filled his
appointment here Monday. The
benches of the courthouse were filled
almost exclusively by those of dus-
KY hue. The autumn breeze was Ia
dene1 with a scent entirely foreign
to that of cologne, which seemed to
exhilirate the speaker. He was
indeed cheerful and was the reci-
pient of tumultuous applause by
those whom republican leaders call
around to see when political elections
are pending, but at other times
leave with democrats to school and
furnish with provisions. The
theme of the greater part of the
speakers discourse was the demo-
cratic party. The most vitupera-
tive language at bis command was
used while assailing that party.
He condemned the Tennessee legis-
lature for the passage of laws au-
thorlzing the hiring out of cOnvicIs,
but not a word of condemnation
escaped his lips In regard to the In
diana legislature, which passed q
similar law. Neither did the speak
er allude to their being such a law
upon the statute books of that state.
Indiana is the home of President
Harrison. He referred to several
instances where members of the
democratic party had defaulted

Something About the Record of the
Third Party Candidate for
President.

Many people in Hardeman Coun-
ty know very little concerning the
record of James B. Weaver. Be-
low the BULLETIN gives a few facts
ab"ut this man, sworn to by promi-
nent men of Tennessee, where he act
ed so disgracefully during the war,
and others, taken from his speeches.
delivered in 1888, while a member
of congress-aIl of which are of rec
ord and can be proven.
While in command at Pulaski,
in Giles County, in 1864, January
26th, Wea yer coerced 81, 700 at the
point of the baYonet from law abid-
ing and highly respected citizens.
These men were arrested and jailed
without charge, and were forced to
pay the above amount to be releas-
ed, all of which went into Weaver's
pockets. He also robbed the peo-
Pile in Giles County of hogs, turkeys,
horses, etc., and when they applied
for vouchers his answer was
''that he didn't furnish d-n rebels
vouchers, but would much prefer
furnishing rope to hang the last one
of them"
He said in Bloomfield. Sept. &c,
1869: "What is the use of further
arraigning the defunct democracy
with all of its hoary crimes, at the
bar of public opinion? We know
that its acts comprise murder, trea-
son, theft, arson, perjury and all
crimes possible for an organization
to cOnnive at. 1t would be mercy
to put its record million mile:
deep in the pit that is mentioned
in Holy Writ; and 1 may add that
if a large and distinguished assort-
ment of its alleged statesmen were
sent along it would be common
Justice
He said in Oskaloosa, Sept. 25,
1872: "No republican can ever,
under any circumstances, have any
part or lot with the hungry, REBEL
ieus, man hating, woman-selline
gang corporated under the name Of
democracy, a name so full of stencil
and poison that it should be blot
ted from the vocabulary of civilized
man and handed over to barbarism
that it So fifty now and in all the
past has represented"
He said at Stiles, Sept. IL, 1873
in referring to the financial policy
OF the democratic party: "But then
what could you expect from the
poor, blind, diseased, decreplt, dis
NAL, damned old democratic party.
Can self-respecting white men il
the south vote for such a man fol-
president of the United States
If so our citizenship has degenera'
ted.
