Knoxville, Tenn., July 17, 1867. Erownlow and Elberldgc. The folJowinc: article iiom the Cincinnati ia:cttc -will give the Tcnncssco public a corrccl. idea of the light in which, our can vass is viewed from a Northern point of observation : 2s o American can be indiflcrenlto the issue of the contest in Tennessee. The election there takes place upon the first Thursday in August. The nominations for State of ficers were made sometime ago. Those for Congress are completed, as arc nearly all the nominations upon both sides for scats in the Legislature. Every clement of loyalty iu the State, every clement of progress, national unity and Republicanism nas been rallied to the support of Gov Brownlow, while every clement of reaction, malignancy and Recession Democracy has gathered about the standard of Ethcridge. Than these, the records of no two men in the country arc more dissimilar. From the very commencement of the rebellion Brown low raised his voice in denunciation of it, and gave his whole soul to the Union cause. And from that hour to this he has not on sustained every measure the government deemed necessary to crush the enemies of the land, but every one which, sinco the war closed, it has in its wisdom considered necessary to secure the stabilit' of the Re public, and the fruits of the great victory it had achieved. On the other hand Mr. Etheridf'o has, from the first moment in which it became evident that the salvation ol the Union involved the crippling or overthrow of the institution of slavery, been as bitter and relentless an enemy as the nation had at any point South of the Ohio river; and every measure of national defense during the war, as well as every measure of reconstruction since, has en countered h'i3 uniform and persistent hos tility, lliti name will go down to history as the chief instrument in that infamous plot, by which, at the most critical period of our great struggle, it was attempted to deprive five States of their representation in Con gress, and thus nccuro the election of Sam Cox to the Speakership, and the trimuph of Disunion Democracy in the very citadel of the uation'h power. This attempted treach- j ery unveiled his character, and fine Wn U nostuitr to tlio government has been most open, bitter and defiant. Baffled and disgraced in the Congress of llio United States, he transferred the sphere of his operations to Tennessee, and finding loyalty triumphant there, ho set himself to overthrow it, commencing in 18C5 a scries f treasonable and seditious movements, harrnnguing the people in opposition to the loyal State Government, declaring it was but the usurping offspring of the govern ment at Washington, which was itself a us urpation; asserting that slavery had never been legally abolished in Tennessee; advis ing rebel citizens not to respect the rights ! colored men, but to shoot down at once any one who went about the country tolling them thev were free; and at last growing so outrageous in his utterances and threats, that Gen. Thomas, always patient, modcr- ntc and just, was compelled to arrest him, and order his trial bv court martial. A his wie and prudent step, perhaps, alone pre vented a rebel outbreak in West Tennessee, and a bloody effort to overthrow the gov ernment of the State. Sir.ec then he has nursed his venom in silence, but it has been all the time accum ulating; and in the rebel Stato Convention which met at Nashville this sprinir, one of his followers represented him as "panting' with desiro to bo placed in some position that would enable him once moro to unloose Lis toneiuv .ind w.t'o war unon the loval men of Tennessee. Jl is nomination by that convention, with all his accumulated sinso sedition and treason upon his head, was a defiance to tho Government of tho United states no less direct than that of the rebels of South Carolina, when, in 1S61, they opened their batteries upon the flag waving over l ort Sumter. May tho retribution which overtook tho perpetrators of that great crime be ominous of the political fate of Lthondirc and his lollowcrs in tho elec tions of Tennessee. Words or Truth and Soberness. General M. Jeff Thompson, a citizen o cw Orleans, wi.kly known in Missouri and along the Mississippi river before the war; still more famous during tho war, and not ny any means an unnoted personage now, has written an cxccnent letter to the editor of the Louisville Journal, in which ho takes pains to show that he understands himself and the condition of tire countiy. I might cover the whole ground," says he, 'when I say that 1 heartily concur in the sentiments of General Longstrcet. The loyal ma-scs who stood by the old flag are the only people who have the right to make thr. Ltcs, while ice A.?ir simply left to vs the right to obey or leave the country, or remain aliens in our oicn IjhJ. "The plain question now presented is, Will you except citizenship under our terms as contained in this law?" nnd I em phatically answer yes!' How lamentable is it that such men as General Longtrect and General Thompson do not control tho Southern press. The truth is that the great majority of the Southern newspapers &rc edited by gentle men who did nut fight when thev had a chance and who want to bt now when they know they cannot. Had tb0 senti ments that M.Jfil Thompson now rsvoff., ees neeii ineuicuivu ov wio oo'imrrn Contrast Between DemocraticLoulslana and neoublican Tennessee. That excellent Republican organ, the In- Hianhnolis Journal, draws the following strikiDC contrast between Tcnncssco and Louisiana. Will the Democratic papers publish it? In 18G3 the State GoAernraent of Lou isiana pasred into the hands of tho Demo cratic party, and the city of New Orleans was placed under the control of that noto rious Democrat and rebel, John T. Monroe. After less than two years of Democratic rule, the treasury of tho State is bankrupt, and even the inmates of the deaf and dumb and insane asylums must be turned adrift or become a charge upon the United States. The city of New Orleans is in no better condition. Her Democratic officials have used up all the money they could lay their hands on, besides issuing several millions of city script, a largo portion of which is found to bo fraudulent, that is put in circu lation for the privato gain of the Mcn rocitcs, the city receiving nothing therefor. In 18G5 tho Union Republicans of Ten nessee reconstructed their Stato Govern ment which had been destroyed by the re bellion. Tho "State was literally seamed with the scars of battle, and every oquare mile of its surface had felt tho tramp of con tending armies, and suffered tho waste and ravages of war. There was no Stato Trea sury ; accumulated wealth had been dissip ated in the fearful struggle through which tho State had passed, and production was limited to the baro necessities of life ; but undiscouraged by the difficulties before it, the Republican Stato administration pro ceeded to reconstruct tho Government of Tennessee upon principles in harmony with the great events in which tho new move ment had its inception. In advance of the constitutional amend ment, it abolished slavery in that State, then it swept from the statute book the barbarous laws which had been framed in the era of Democratic rule, for the oppression of tho free blacks; late, it conferred the elective franchise upon colored men,' and provided for the establishment of free schools for all the children' in the State. The Republican Legislature of Tennessee also ratified the constitutional amendment proposed by Con gress to the seceded States as tho basis of restoration, and thereupon the Senators and Representatives of that Stato were admitted to seats in the National Congress. Tho financial regeneration of Tennessee has been no loss remarkable than her poli tical. Not only is the Stato administration able to defray its expenses, but it has pro vided for promptly paying the interest upon tho btate debt, and tho credit of Tennessee will soon be as fair in tho stock market as that of the most favored loyal States. This contrast between Louisiana and Tcnncssco fchows the difference between Re publican and Democratic rule in the South. The one leads to prosperity and Union, tho other to public bankruptcy, anarchy and prolonged exclusion from participation in vue nauonai uovernmcni.

Whereupon, the chairman put Ibe question to the convention : All those in favor of Isaac A. Tayler far Floater, will make it known by saying aye, and the house rang with ayes. If there is any objection, say no, and there rras no response. Tho chairmaa then announced Isaac A.

There wa then a committee appointed to wait on Mr. Taylor and inform him of his nomination, and in a few minutes they' returned and Mr. Taylor thanked tho convention for the honor conferred on him and accepted the nomination.

AVM- &. .EMMIthT Chairman. Jof-EMI F. jkNUCUST, Secreiaru, Cen. Jos. A. Cooper. Cliktok, Tenn., July 9th, 1867. Ediixr Knoxville Whig : If a series of gallant and able services in the cause of loyalty, freedom, progress and Union giva eny claim to respect and esteem, Gen. Jos. A. Coop er, by iis conduct up to the conclusion of the war, has ccitainly earned the admiration of all friends of our country. . Scarcely less entitled to honorable mention in his unselfish and honorable couno recently when the enemies of our party, hopeless of victory in a fair fight, were striving desperately to effect a divi sion in our ranks. , EaBt Tennessee knows hi history by heart. In May, 1861, he was the only delegate from Camp bell county, who appeared at the Knoxville-Greene-ville Convention. Returning fcome,?he raised a company, and on the 1st of August started in search of the " old flag," after voting on the same day for Maynard and the Union ticket.. His company, (Company A, 1st Tenn.,) was the first organized body of men in the United States Army from Ten nessee during the war. Made Colonel in 1862 by the Secretary of War, Brigadier General in 18C1 by Lincoln, and afterwards raised by Johnson to a Brevet Major Generalship, for gallant sorvices, to date back to 'March, 18C5. His courage and pa triotism met only their just reward. Of bis ardent devotion to the cause of the Union and bia cool, yet desperate courage on the battlefield every soldier who served with him can tell. In August, 1865, be was one of tho unsuccessful candidates for Congress, though receiving a grati fyingly large vote. , j More recently his name was prominently before the Athens Convention for nomination, as the Rad ical Congressional candidate. Though supported there warmly by numerous friends, the choice of the Convention was Mr. Maynard. -; Since then have been most strikingly displayed the sterling, reliablo qualities of General Cooper's character which entitle him in so high a degree to tho confidence of his friends and party. Ho was constantly and most urgently beset lo disregard the action of the Convention, and announce himself as a candidate. Mr. Maynard'i present opponent, and other prominent Knoxville Conservatives, pressed the matter upon him personally with the greatest warmth and urgency. Assurances were even prof fered that if he would take tho track no Conserva tive candidate would be put forth, i He was assured of great chances for success, and the fact of his having been an unsuccessful oppo nent of Mr. Maynard at the previous election would, it was no doubt supposed, render him the more willing to run the race. But the staunch soldier was proof against Con servative wiles. He had agreed to abide tho action of tho Convention, and he was unwilling from mo tive of personal ambition to break his agreement or imperil the success of the party by causing it to havo two candidates in the field. Again, when urged by friends in the Radical par ty to become a candidate for the Stato Senate from Knox and Roane, he rofused to interfere with Dr. Eaton, the candidate already in the field. . In his present position, at the head of the State Guard, his efficient and soldierly management of the troops under his chargo will doubtless promote the welfare and tranquility of the State, and do m,M.fc. .-.- r .to are watching closely hoping that some misdemeanor on the part of some member of the militia may give them a chance to raise the cry of "Radical outrage." A man, who like Gen. Cooper, has shown himself unwilling to sacrifice the good of the cause to his personal ambUion, is such a man as can be trusted, a..d the party will d woll to bear auch men in mind in the selection of their standard bearersla the future. Justice. A Model Kentucky Democrat. The Frankfort Commonwealth thus shows np a fair specimen of the men whom Ken tucky Copperheads delight to honor: 11. ii. Lijon, who ngured, as a " uenerai in the insurgent army, during" the recent attempt of traitors to destroy tho Union and overthrow the x ederal Government, is a candidate for the State Senate in the Third district composed . of tho counties of Calloway, Henrietta, Livingston, Lyon and Tnrtr. One of the exploits oi this traitor officer, during his guerrilla raids in the western portion of tho Stato. was to set fire to and destroy the Court House of Trigg county, with the records, etc., of the county and its Courts ! TVe presume that, with his party the rebel Democracy his acts of incendiarism will be tho best recom mendations ho can present. If wo arc not mistaken, this H. B. Lyon was educated by tho Government of the United States, and when the traitors inau gurated their treasonable war upon the Union, wa3 an officer in the federal army. His ingratitude to tho Government which had educated, fed and clothed him, and his violation of his oaths to support and main tain the authority of that Government, will bo but additional recommendations of the rebel Democracy to support him. Gov. Swann's Militia. Tho Washington Chronicle says : We lcrn that Mr. James Cooper, who served in the rebel army during the entire war, has been com mUsioned by Gov. Swann as a Brigadier General of (he new .Maryland militia now being so rapiaiy or ganized and equipped ; also, that Col. J. C. Her bert, who commanded the 1st Maryland rebel regi ment, and was wounded at Gettysburg, has a full regiment of returned Confederate soldiers in the new military service of Maryland, styled the " Maryland Guard," and that they have adopted the rebel gray uniform. The State authorities have purchased tho guns for them, and great eagerness is manifested to have this soldiery ready for active service What does it mean ? We rofor the question to the newspapers in Ten nessee which make so loud an outcry about Brown- low's militia. There would be no conflict, we imagine, if it were Gov. Harris' militia, dressed in ery- M ' t Northern Men In the South. The New Orleans Republican says : It is very well for visitors from tho North to come here, and, because under the protection of bayonets they are permitledjlo say what they please, to go home and represent tho condition of this place as peaceful, law-abiding and tolerant; but re move the bayonets and the power which they rep resent, and then let a Republican Senator attempt to oxpress his radical sentiments on a rostrum in this city. He would be likely to find himself in the " Union as it was'' when Brooks committed his bru tal and dastardly assault on Senator Sumner, and when the venerable Mr. Hoar came on a legal and peaceful mission and was expelled from South Car olina as a meddlesome intruder. The fact is the miliiary bill has not justified the expectation of its fraa.ers ; they most at it again and do their work over; this time we do hope in such a mancor that the simplest cannot misunderstand nor the subtlest misrepresent. Diaih of Gen. Meagher. A Despatch from Virginia City, Montana, brings intel ligence of the death of General Thomas F. Meacues. Governor of that Territory. The General was a native of Ireland, and par ticipated in the revolutionary movement of for which he was transporter nui es caping, he came to the United States. At the commencement of the rebellion he raised the Irish Brigade, and fought galluut lv for the Union cause. Resigning his com mand, ho was subsequently appointed Gov ernor of Montana Territory, where his career was cut short by death, lie had nearly completed his forty -fourth year. GiTlngnp the cfc The Nashville Gazette gives up the whole controversy in regard to tho appointment of officers of election, as follows : "We aro puzzled to concciro how any political capital can be made out of the af fair, as it now stands. It never was the imperative duly of the County Court to appoint judges of election. It was & privilege. In case the' failed to use their privilege, the Code made provision for their selection by the Sheriffs. And now, in cases where the gubernatorial bully, backed by a Conservative Committee, has scared the County Courts from exercising their privilege, that privilege devolves by law on the Commissioners of Registration. And yet this same Conservative sheet is enraged at the County Courts for not ex ercising an authority which i admits they had no right to exercise, I wan GROCERIES AND COMMISSION. FOR SALE. c. w. corns. Hi-en NAims. Etheridge's exhortations to th Conservatives not to visit or associate with Republicans, nor suffer their children to play with the children of Radi cals, recalls to mind the old story of bigoted Dem ocrat from New York, who as visaing Washing ton at the time Mr. Van Buren was Vice President. He sat in the circular gallery 0f thaSsnate, gazing at the Vice President with & mingled feeling of awe and Stato pride, when suddenly a tall and man ly form appeared at the side of tho hall and beck oned to Mr. Van Buren. Tbere w.s little business doing, and the Vice President, calling & Senator to the chair, joined the person mentioned, when both seated themselves on the sofa, both snuffed from the same box the hand of the Vice President was laid playfully upon the knee of his companion, and ever and anon a hearty laugh would escape them, show ing that whatever might be the topic it was agree ablo to both. . Is that Mr. Calhoun with the Vice President ?" said his country friond to a peison nar him. "No, sir. " Is it Mr. Benton ?" " No, sir." ' " Is it General Wall ?" "No, sir." " May I ask who it is ?"' . r . " Why, that is Mr. Clay." " . "Mr. "Clay!'' almost shrieked the man : " and does Mr. Van Buren speak to him ? Rot me if I ever vote for him again!" and the fellow stalked from the ha;'l, firmly believing that the country was lost. Tennessee will take care that the miserable, nar row-minded bigot who is the Conservative nominee for Governor, shall never have a chance to exhibit his bitterness in her Capitol.
