to disappear from, the same, and the
privilege of . the elective franchise made
to rest upon the facts and conditions of
the present instead of the past, and
upon the principle of impartiality,
of et. uality and ;ustice.- Disfranchisement
was adopted only as a temporary necee
sity, growing out of the needs and ass:
Lion of the time, and with no expectation '
that it would be long continued, and '
there can ho no reason for its further
continuance now, except in a sehish
partisan ambition to gain office, or a sel—
fish partisan fear of Laing it. Disfran
chisement necessarily produces restless-.
nese, discontent, and, as we have all seen.
engenders'animosities, discord and strife.
Enfranchisement will, in my opinion, heal
the animosities which have so long divi
ded our people, and bring concord, peace
and prospezity to the State, while at the.
came time It is most consonant with the
theory and principles of our Republican
form of - government and, with the de
clared - policy and purpose of the party
now in pciwar.;" '
He announces himself In favor of the
proposed Fifteenth' Amendment to the
Federal Constitution, and pledges him
self to fa or its ratification by the Legis
lature at its next session, and concludes
by saying he stands on the Chicago plat
form. ' .
The debate at Cleveland yesterday, be
tween Senter and Stokes, was looked to
with much interest._No new develop

feeling was manifested by the au
dience, which appeared to be equally
divided. Senter's friends are sahguine
and some of them' predict Stokes will
withdraw. until the candidates have
filled their appointments in East Tennes
see, closing on the sth of July, it will
not be safe to give an opinion as to the
final result at the. polls. Stokes' friends
feel the want of a newspaper orkan here,
