AFFAIRS IN TENNESSEE.
EDITORS GAZETTE: The Chronicle, of
Friday evening last, contains a lengthy let
ler from Nashville, signed "W. L.," in
which the writer,'who claims to be a "reli
able gentlerean," forMerly a citizen of
Pittsburgh, gives a doleful account of the
Many grieiance a Which, as it Would appear,
his oppressed white brethren of Tennessee
are compelled to endure at the hands of
their cruel (?) black fellow-eitizena. As I
have but recently returned from' a three
years' residence - in . Tennessee and North
.Alabama, of which one , year was spent at
Nashville, I claim to be somewhat familiar
with the'general situation in that section;
and, although et aiess momentous political
crisis, I should feel disinclined to raise a
question as to the veracity of "W. L.," I
may here say that I have seldom seen a
column and a half of a respectable journal
piostituted to so base a use as the publics
ti nof this miserable batch of slanderous
fabrication from the "reliable gentleman"
at Nashville. It will be noticed that "W.
L." advertises himself as a convert from a
Radical to a rebel Democrat, and that he
gives us_plainly to understand that he
wishes now to be regarded as a Northern
man with Southern principles; i, e., a ant
_
mg tool in the hands of the "chivalric mas
ter race" of the South.. But let us look at
the pretended facts contained in the com
munication.
When "W. L." says "the entire political
power" in Tennessee is in the hands of, the
negroes, he simply does not tell the truth.
He either has not read the franchise law,
or has mademisstatements purposely. By
reference to the law as it now stands upon
the statute books, it will be seen that, in
addtion to the 55,000 white men of Tennessee,
tato are originally Union men, and who voted
against the ordinance of secession, several
large classes of rebels are allowed to vote;
so that of the 150,000 white men who voted
in • that State before the war, not more than
30,000 are now (temporarily) disfranchised,
and they the most malignant and bitter
rebels to be found in the whole South.
Take, tor example;theniunicipal election
at Memphis, the chief city of the State, last
fall. Hall the political power is in the h andsi
of the negroes will "W. L." please inform us
bow the white Democrats in that city manag
ed last fall to elect their candidate for Mayor,
the neroes voting, almost to a man the
Republican ticket, in that election? Then
the Democrats be Tennessee were plaiting a
square, stand-up-fight, without calling to
their aid bands of Ku-Klux Cutthroats, as
they are doing this fall, and the result in
Memphis was that they won by reason of
numerical superiority.
The Chronicle correspondent takes the
Tennessee legislature in,- hand and "ana
lyses" it very severely. Still, notwithstand
ing the searching chemical process to which
.he has subjected that body, I have great
hopes that it will be ante to gather together
its constituent parts and go on about as
usual.. The L legislature of Tennessee is
made up of as able and patriotic ' men as
can be found in any State in the Union.
More earnest and wiser statesmen than
Hon. W. D. Senter, Colonel Bouson, and
General W. J. Smith, who come respect
ively from - East, Middle and West Tennes
see, are no: often found in our legislative
councils. That the members of that body.
are to ally extent poverty-stricken political
aspirants. is not true. Though many have
lost heavily by-their fidelity to the. Union
during the war, still I am personally ae
quainted with several who are worth from
one hundred to three hundred thousand
dollars, and many of the others I know to.
be men in comfortable' circumstances.
• From" W. L"s." letter, we see that he
has proven himself an apt pupil in the
.school of slaveholding chivalry, and he
giVes us fair evidence of the fact in the way
11:1 which he pitches into "the nigger;" for
already has he learned that it is safest to
attack those whom he believes unable to
make any resistance, and who are not
likely, in turn, to pull his nose or punch
his bead. To strike a man when he is down
is regarded as unfair, but to strike a man
whom another has knocked down, is justly
considered the very acme of cowardice;
and this is exactly what our reliable Fitts:
burgher has done.. But, unfortunately for
"W. L.," this time he has missed his reek
, ening, for there are men. , both black and
white, in this city as well as in Nashville,
who know fuly that in the base sten
_ dere which he writes against a long op
pressed and' deeply injured people, he
either knows • not whereof he speaks or
that he has wilfully and deliberately lied.
I proceed to give facts.
First, in regard to : -Commissioners and
taxation. Space will not permit me here
:to speak at length concerning the financial
policy of Tenneasee. Doubtless the people
of that impoverished State feel the heavy
taxation which is imperatively necessary
to repair the damages within their bordern,
-caused by the traitors: who r plunged the
State into rebellion, but that . the tax com
missioners are generally ignorant and irre
sponsible men; is far from being true. The
writer in question especially refers to
Dayi teen county, (of which Nashville is
• the capital,) and - informs us that cam of the
' commissioners for that County is .a "black
man," and a "very ignorant one too."
Now, I am personally acquainted with the
man referred to, have known him for years,
and I here take the liberty of giving his
name and standing in Nashville, and for
- the truthfulness df my statement I will re
, fer to the rebel / Gen eral Cheatham, Gov.
Brownlow, any of the Zol li coffer family.
or' to any lea ng rebel or Union man
in Nashville. Mr. James H. Sumner,
'the "black commisaioner," is the son of
Win' Sumner, (also black,) who has lived
• in Nashville for forty years, and pays
taxes on seventy-five thousand dollars
worth of property; he owns a large livery
stateeand several fine dwelling houses in
. 'Nashville, besides one or two farms in an
adjoining county. The son, James, is ono
of the most intelligent young men in that
-city; and has studied at Wilberforce 'Gni
, versity, Ohio, and also at Oberlin College.
For clerical ability and general qualifica
tions for the office he holds, I doubt pinch
'whether his superior could be foulid in
;1 Nashville. - lam quite sure that "W. L."
knows little or nothing about the "black
CoMmis,ioner," or he would never have
dared to say that about him, which every
old citizen of Nashville knows to be utterly
false. Either Jae. H. Sumner or his father
' could to-day give a check for twenty-thou
`:sand dollars, and as I have had business
' 1
dealings with them, I know whereof I
speak. Yet such men are termed,by W.
L." "Irresponsible and depraved niggeis."
' Now in regardito Kii-Klux4Clans terror
ism
,
man" has not given us any more accurate
infcirmation upon these than upon other
topics. For any man to say that there is
no such organization in the' South as the
Ru-Klux-Klan, is silly to, write himself
down as a fool or a fele tier; and that, too,
• , when members'of that Organization have
deseited it and published its constitution
and by-laws and divulged some of the
• most important secrets; when their masked
horsemen have paraded at. midnight
through the streets of nearly every village
in Middle and West Tennessee, and when
' the 'uniform and systematic manner in
which they commit their nocturnal dem
dations upon unotlendiag pertionai has
driven hundreds of Union men from the
State, or to-the largercitlete for 'protection.
Let me here give a few instances which I
• know to be true. •
. , Mr. J. B.,Dunlap. of 13helbyville but a
short time ago, was dragged from his bed
at tnidnight, tied upon a horse, taken into
the woods and beaten so badly that I have
since learned that he died from his wounds.'
His offense was teaching a freedmen's
school. lam personally acquainted with
. Ilr. D., and . I caa say that a more, quiet,'
modest,'and inoffensive man could'acarcely
be found. _ •
Gen. W. J: • Bailthi a prominent Union
citizen of Memphis, and _member of the
.a . •
Ttwlnman Legialattire,thalcmcitittnstinanttf,-
been twice mobbe d , at Brownsville, Tenn.,
whither he had gone onprlyste business,'
and barely escaped with ids life.
White. a promising young colored
man of Columbia, Tenn., who was educated
at the North, and has been engaged in teach
ing at the above place, htts been drivcn away
from his home no less than three times
- -- - - _
inside of two months, by midnight prowlers
who openly avowed themselves members
of the Ku-Hlux-Klan.-
Just across the Tennessee line, in Lau
derdale county, Alabama, an acquaintance
of mine, Munroe Cain by name, two weeks
ago was called to his door atmidnight, and
upon opening it was completely riddled
with bullets by a bander the same ruffians.
Cain's offense was voting the Republican
ticket and counselling the freedmen to do
the same.
Three weeks ago a gang of these masked
scoundrels stopped the night train from
Nashville near Columbia, Tennessee and
searched every car for Hon. S. M. Arnell,
member of Congress from that district, a
native Tennesseean, a wealthy planter and
a cultivated gentleman.
And so I might go on and give a hun
dred instances of the same kind, all tending
to prove that in many parts of Tennessee,
and in the whole South, there is an organi
zation whose aim is to terrify the negroes
and, if possible, drive out white Union
men, and that said organization is known,
not only to its own members but to the
people generally, by the name "Ku-Klux
Klan."
And now a word in regard to Governor
Brownlow and his administration. The
only trouble with the "old Parson" is that
he is a "hard nut," for the rebels and Cop
perheads to "crack." He, understands bet
ter than most men what i s- necessary to
Suppress cut-throats and pggLa• ins, and, if
I am not mistaken, we shall hear from him
arid his work in that direction era long.
"W. L." informs us that the Governor has
lately turned loose from the penitentiary a
horde of desperadoes, and that dire results
have followed. I have by me some statis
tics bearing upon that point, and it will
not be amiss to give them in this connec
tion. During the last session of .the Legis
lature of that State a committee was ap
pAnted to investigate the charges whereup
on the inmates of the State prison at that
time had been tried and convicted; and
here we should remember that most of the
prisoners then confined in the penitentiary
had been sent there by rebel aourts. since
the surrender. The committee faithfully
performed their work, and among other
cases reported the following:
B. .Perry, sentenced for stealing one
drink of whisky worth thirty cents; W.
Pinn, an old shirt worth one dollar and
fifty cents; J. Nash, an axe, two dollars;
S. Deadrick, a bowl and butter, forty cents;
W. Watts, seven pounds of neat, one dol
lar and seventy-live cents; T. Aden, one
dollar; John Marfield. old pants, one dol
lar and seventy-five cents; J. Holsaw, two
and a half pounds of Butter, seventy-five
cents; J. K. Smith, four circus tickets.
The above are some of the cases in which
Executive clemency was interposed. Com
ment is unnecessary.
And now, in conclusion, allow me to say
that I firmly believe that "W. L." has been
"bought with a price." Do the readers of
the.GAZETTE know what the rebel Demo
crats of the South are willing to pay a
Northern man fur just such letters to a
Northern newspaper, and especially to a
man having such ,ant ecedents as au "eman
cipationist," a "Unionist," and a "Radi
cal" might be supposed to have? If not, I
will tellthem, as I have had offers of that
kind. They are 'willing . to pay about (en
tivi , s as much for them as the New York
Ledger pays Beecher or Greeley for their
contributions, and whisky, oyster suppers
and lionizing thrown in. I have been on the
ground and "know the ropes." "W. L."
only adds one more to the number whom
I have seen yield to the persuasive and se
ductive influence' of the almighty dollar
and Southern blandishment. 0. M. W.

AMON 'PACIFIC RAILitOAD. I
700 MILES
MON PACIFIC RAILROAD
Are now finished and In operation. 160 miles of
track have been laid this spring, and the work along
the whole line between the .Atlantic and Pachic
States Is being pushed. forward 'more rapidly than
ever before. More than twenty thousand men are
employed, and it ls.not imPoisibie that the entire
track, from Omaha to Sacramento, will be tilsheil
in 1869 Instead of 1910. The means provided are
ample, and all that energy. meu and money can do
to secure the completion of this-
GREAT NATIONAL WORK,
At the earliest possible day, Will be done
The UNION PACIFIC 'RAILROAD COIITANY
receive:
I.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of the right of way,
and all necessary thnber and other materials
found along the line of its operations.
GOVERNMENT GRANT of 12,800 acres
of land to the mile, tagen In alternate sections
on each side of its road. This is an absolute do
nation, and will be a source of large revenue in
the future.
111.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of United States
Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to fromslB,ooo
to $48,000 per mile, according to the difficul
ties to be surmounted on the various sections to
be built. The . Government takes a second mort
gage as security, and it is expected that not only
the 'interest. but the principal amount maybe
Paid in services rendered by the Company in
transporting troops, mails. &c. The interest is
now much more than paid in this way, besides
securing a great saving in time and money to the
Government. "
IV.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of the light to
• - ,lssue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS, to
aid in building the road, to the same amount as
the U.S. Bonds, issued for the same purpose,
and no more. _ The Government permits the
Trustees for the First Mortgage Bondholders to
deliver the. Bonds to the Company only as the
road la completed, and after It has been examin
ed by United States Commissioners and pro
nounced to be in all respects a first-class Rail
road, laid with a heart' T rail, and completely
supplied with depots, stations, tnrnouts, car
shops, locomotives, cars, ac.
V.—A CAPITAL STOCK SUBSCRIPTION from
the stockholders, of which OVER EIGHT MIL
LION DOLLARS have been paid in upon the
work already done, and which will be increased
as the wants of the Company require.
VI.—NET CASH EARNINGS on its Way Business,
that already amount to MORE THAN THE IN
TEREST on the First MOrtgage Bonds. These
earnings are no-indication of the vast through
tr.affic that must follow the opening of the line
to the Pacific, but they certainly prove that
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
upon such a property, costing nearly_three times
their amount, ARE SECURE BEYOND ANY
CONTLNOENCY.
The Union Pacific Bonds run thirty Tears, are for
$l,OOO esch, and have . coupons attached. They
bear annual interest, payable on the first days of
January And July, at the Company's Office. in the
City of New York, at the rate onsix per cent. in
gold. The Principal is payable In gold at maturity.
The price Is 102, and at the present rate of gold,
they pays liberal Income on their cost.
The Company believe that these Bonds, at the
present rate. are the cheapest in the market,:and
reserve the right to advance the price at any time.
