of talk and much indignation was ex.
pressed that any one should be 80 de-
void of local pride as to be guilty of
such a thing. Such dissertation would
be shameful, and we are sure would
meet the hearty condemnation of al
most our entire population. 1t seems
the report had reached Nashville, as a
telegram from that city was received
by Capt. Deaderick, of this place, pro.
testing against it, and stating that the
Exposition officers had determined that
they would not accept 1t if it should
be sent there. Protection to this relic
should be given, and it is hoped it may
receive it.
