The present. Legislature of Tennessee
was elect ad by general ticket over a year
ago, very few of the actual c n 'te.:ens of the
Side votina, and,. it will be recollected, cm ,
braced many men who were non-residents
of the counties they assumed to represent,,
and many others who received no votes
in the districts where they resided. Yet,
for the purpose of.having some kind of a'
government, this was submitted to. Eat;
boldened by this ac,quieseence, Brown
low's followers commenced the intrtinc
tion of measures for depriving a large par
tion of the citizens of the State of the
elective franchise and of eligibility 'to all
offices, so that they might be secured for
all time to come for themselves and , their
followers. Un,willing to act in such mat
tees •without the consent of their constitu
ents, some fifteen or more members re
signed their seats, and new' elections were
ordered, in which, for the most part, the
same members were returned. On pre
senting their credentials they were refer
red to a committee, which; after a long de.
lay, reported against the admissiciii . of
nearly all of those wbo had resigned and
been re-elected, on 'the sole ground that
in their opinion they were refractory.—
This monstrous ruling emptied some fif
teen seats. The whole number of mem •
hers of the lower Muse ie= eighty-four,—
By rejecting these members and declining
to order. an election for others,. the num
occ•ipying seats was reduced to fifty-six.

The resolution came up for consideration
from the Committee on Military Affairs,
and was pushed to

New York Times, Chairman of the Is4ation

party, notices this most extraordinary
movement — on the part of the Radidils,
and remarks : •
Although no debate was bad on this
resolution, members were urged to vote
for it by direct conversvtional appeals on
the- floor on 'the part of the few wild were
privy to introduction. Some were told
that it was necessary to enable the South
ern loyalists to protect themselves ; oth
ers, that it was simply a ,matter of. detail
in the War Pepartment ; others, that the
aims must `be taken out of the hands of
the President; and others, that it was pro

A call for a National Convention, to be
held in Philadelphia no the 14th day of
August, 1800, having been issued, an in

as such, to unite in that convention, in or

calculated to restore national unity, fra

The time being too brief to call a State

Wno ASS ros Twarrorts Now? —During
the whole period of Mr. Lincoln's admin
istration, the epithet !'You're a Traitor"
was constantly on the lips of. a class of
blackguard, low-bred Republicans. They
applied it to every Democrat whO, did not
believe that all that Mr. Lincoln did, said
and dreamed, was entirely right and prop
er. They were unwilling that any man
should differ with the President in any
particular. lie was "the government,"
they said, and the man who didn't , sup
port the government-through thick and
thin was .'`a traitor," acccrding to their
way of thinking, and deserved hanging at
the first lamp-post.
Now, then, what was sauce for the goose
ought to be sauce for , the sander. If Dlr.
Lincoln was the goveninent then, surely
Andrew Johnson is the government now,
and should be sustained by every loyal
citizen. Mr. .Tohnson is trying to restore'
and reconstruct the Union,on a Constitu:
tional basis, and it is the day of every
Man, who hss at heart the interests of the
country, to stand by him add bold up his
hands in the great work before him. lle
is' defending and protecting the Constitu
tion, and those who are opposing him are
revolutionists and traitors, according to
their own argument. ' The only true
Union men are those who are upholding
and sustaining the President. All others_
are bogus. no, matter what they may call
themselves, or how loudmouthed their
professions are..
Tun Mosans oP WasumaroN. The
Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
t'ateilman, e religious journal, thus depicts
the state of morals at the national
capital under radical rule:
Licentiousness and drunk( nness are the
prominent Features of Washington life
this season. 3temhers of Congress spend
their afternoons and evenings in billiard
and drinking saloons, and their nights in
houses of ill.f.sme or assignation. Five
sevenths of the Republican ralembers,of
Congress snood their nights in licentious
dissipation. While a majority . of the
Democratic members are working for the
good of the country, the
,opposition, rely
ing on its majority goes in for a "good
time," so-called. Washington. under Abo
lition auspices. is the most• licentious, de
praved city in the Union. Drinking sa
loons. gaMbling houses. houera of prosti•
tution and assignation are about the Capi•
tril as side-shows aro about a•circus. Har
lots and niggers occupy the galleries,
smile on their pet members on the floor,
and throw kisses to the "God and moral
ity" representatives of honest constitu
encies. Sad, sad, indeed ! but every word
true. Let us hope that the next election
will send here a different class of men.

F orne y g p rei3 - copies' the' following
from the Pittsburg Grt:sttef Disunion) in
relatbn to the call for a Clymer Soldier's
State Convention:
" We have no Objections to this call for
a convention. But why is it that none of
our renowned military Madera from this
State—and we have many of them-v
have Arnett O. f There is suit the name q.
ens Major General to the call, not one
Brigs tier General, and but five brevets . ;
Ltd there are fort:u:one sergeants and corpora t e
and one hundred and eleven privates ; _whether
even these have honorably served in the
army vre have not the records to show."
" Not the name of one major general"—
only " forty one sergeants and corporals and
one hundred and eleven privates." 01 , 1
course this *ill be a miserably poor con- •
vention without " straps" and " stara",to
give it dignity and character (!) Of
course the musket and knapsack amount'
to nothing ; of course the 'corporal's and
sergeant's simple badges of tape are of;
no account; of course the battle chev;i
sons, won on bard contested fields, aignify,
'nothing; and of course those other chev
rons—the crotch and empty sleeve—are
- of no account, to those who like the Ga
zette recogniv patriotism only -in the
double and triple atari! The rank and
file are of no account in the aristocratic
consolidated despotism' which the Geary
party are attempting to establish. Poor
men—privates and . corporals and ser
geants—havewo right to stgtra hall for a
convention: They must " take :a back
seal" and let • the brigadier and major
generals command them as citizens the
same as when they were soldiers. The
Democratic p'rinciple that the want of
wealth or rank debars no man from his
political right.to help sliape the policy of
his party and share in the government of .
himself, has been wept away with the
advent of the bogus. Republican party.
So say and teach and act the leaders of
the Geary party.
A PRISaIDENT —Congress is in favor of
removal from office for opinion's sake.--
Mr. James E.' Harvey has been for the
last four years and is now Minister for the
United States at Portugal, but in a pri
vate and unofficial letter, which became
public, he expressed approval of the 'pol
icy of the President, and his dissent front
the action of Congress. Congress bad not
the power to remove him from office, but
without permitting debate, explanation or
deity; it forced through the Heusi?, by its
usual =Verity, a proviso that be should
receive no farther compensation for . his
services in that capacity. The Constitu•
tion provides that Congress shall have
nothing to do with the - appointment or re- ,
moral of office holders, but the House rs•
sorts to this method of evading the Con
stitution, and that only because Mr. Har
vey disapproves of their policy and thinks
the opiniotts of the President are more
conducive to the welfare of the nation.--:- .
The outcry of Congress against removals
from office is thus proved to arise from no
sense of justice and principle, but only
from the selfish desire of retaining,th9
honors and emoluments of office forthein
selves and their friends.

PETTY SPITE Both Rows of Congr:tas
have Concurred in refusinifto appropriate
money to pay the stiary Of Mr. Harvey.
United States Minister to Portugal, under
appointment of Mr. Lincoln. The avow
ed reason for this, as given in the .. ,enate
debates of Friday, was the letter written
tart spring by Mr. Harvey to Secretary
Seward, in which the policy of the
Radicals in Congress is criticised with a
free pen. If they possessed the power,
the Radicals would turn Harvey out of of

Johnion, but having no power of that
sort they withheld his pay. An American
Simate - of former times, that stooped to
such small spite work as this, would have
been disgraced. The body now in session
has reached a point where its notion - Ai

the Democratic party bad been in power

than the Democrats were., Therefore, r

may learn the same lesson." Didn't we
