The public were notified yesterday
that Hon. Emerson Etheridge would
address the people of Nashville in theever,
Court House, and accordingly before
seven o'clock persons began to assem-
ble in the large hall, where a band was
already stationed, and which soon af
ter enlivened the room by sweet strains
of music. By seven o'clock there were
probably four hundred persons in thewere
room, nearly one halt of them in mili
tary uniform.
At half past seven Mr. Etheridge
appeared, escorted by another brass
band, and after being introduced to
the audience, addressed his hearers for
two hours in a speech more amusing
than forcible.
"The United States government,"
said Mr* E., "was made for the poor
man—the rich can take care of them
selves anywhere," and alter adverting
to some of its benefits, and condemn
ing the various political parties or par
tizans, other than the Republicans, he
said the Breckinridge Democrats
turned Secessionists just as naturally
as a tadpole turns into a frog. There
was no cause for secession- The South
had always obtained all she asked from
Congress and would have continned
triumph lu.d not South Carolina
seceded. Northern money and voles
bought Louisiana, Florida, and Texas
and California was acquired to satisfy
the South and not the Northern States.
The South never asked anything from
the United States Government which
she did not obtain, and never protest
Liberty bills. "No one had ever been
punished by them, and no negro had
ever been liberated by them."John
Bell, he was sorry to say, was a
rebel, and Breckinridge was a rebel,
Mr. Lincoln alone was true to the Con
stitution and his country.
He then alluded to the slavery com
promises, to the Territorial question,
to the amendments to the Constitution
and to tho hoary headed secessionists.
The people of Tennessee were in favor
of the Union and the Constitution un
til the bombardment of Fort Sumter
when they turned rank secessionists,
without beincr able to
for such action.

"You borrowed money on your cotton
and now you are going to burn your
cotton." Toombs and Breckinridge
he said, wore cosm.van drunkards, and
others he mentioned were either fools
or rouges.
Speaking of the Confiscation Bill
before Congress, he said there was
time even yet to prevent its passage,
if the South would send her represen
tatives, as she would then have a ma
jority in both houses. "He invited all
and for himself he pardoned all, will
intercede for all, and will pray for all.
The Government offers pardon to all
who will return all must return—all
shall return."
Mr. Etheridge then spoke of the
tombs of Jackson, of Washington, of
Polk, and of Clay, and beautifully eu
logised the sage of Ashland as a sena
tor, and a patriot.
The speaker pronounced a glowing
eulogy upon the steadfast patriotism
of his friend Hon. W. H. Polk, who
occupied a seat upon the stand. lie
applauded him for his constancy to the
old standard in the hour of her polit
ical darkness—and bade him share
that brilliant triumph soon to crown
the efforts of the Government.

comparison between the Federal and
Confederate troops, and said. "God
cannot bless anything so n^ean as the
Confederates."" then thanked the
auditors for their attention, and closed 0US
by assuring them that they should have
his prayers.—Nashville Be]j.

On Monday last a gentleman from
Missouri, named Andrews, came to
this city in search of work, saying that
he was very poor and must be support
od,and yet he would not beg. He was
induced by two or three prominent
citizens to tell his story, which is about
as follows:
He was a farmer in Missouri, owned
160 acres of land, all paid for, a large
amount of stock and grain, and in fact
might be considered "well off," andstatements,
thought irPa. few years he would be
able to let out his place and live com
fortably on the proceeds. But Price
and his army of rakes came through
the court try to break up the Union feel
ing there prevalent. The men of the
couttty placed their wives and children
in a fort near his place, and proposed
to do battle with Price. He says that
Price lost 700 men' and the Unionists
500 during tne engagement—a much
larger number than the telegraph gave
us any account of.
After the battle he went where his
house ought to have been, but found
his house had been burned and every
thing carried away. The government
gave him a pass to Chicago, where he
left his wife, and he proceeded to Big
Falls in this State, on foot, where he
had a brother He obtained 87 and!
sent for his wife to come to Minnesota1
Junction, where he left her with 75c,
while he came here in search of work.
Our citizens made up a purse of 816 New Jersey regiment,the first regiment
tor him, besides quite an amount of
clothing, and he left, feeling somewhat
lighter at heart than he did in the morn
ing. He says that the whole country
is devastated, and that his neighbors
throughout the country, are,like him,
stripped of every thing they had. He
says that Price's army and Jennison's
Jay Hawkers are alike. They go
through the country plundering, using
no discrimination, aud every one whoon
comes under their grasp is robbed,
whether he is Union or disunion. No
one here doubted his story, as he was
soliciting work, and did not want to
take people's money without doing
something in return.—Beuer Dam Ar

for Gen McDowel. He was pointed
to a house close by, the men not under

but seeing the rebel flag, turned to go
away, and he was fired upon. The
last man who fired killed him. He

Pleasant morning. I have come to

Teacher.—Well, no 1 have not en

D.—And why not, pray.

me ask why you came to me when
there are so many gentleman teachers
who have applied for the school?
D.—You know tbatjMa^baat^Laiight

acknowledge that you gjve

T.—What do you propose paying
me if I teach your school?
D-—I have been talking it over with
the other directors, aud we have con
cluded that sixteen or eighteen dollars
was all we could give.
T.—What would you give a gentle
man
D'—I suppose twenty-five or thirty
dollars would be the least that we could
procure one for.
T.—Perhaps that is the reason you
prefer a lady.
D.—No it is not. W would rather
have you than any gentleman we know
of—even if we had to pay yen the
same wages.
T.—Why do you not offer me the
same, then
D.—Well you know lady teachers
never get the same wages as a gentle
men.
T.—And why not they not do
the same work, and more
D.—Yes but you know it is not
customary
T.—And because custom sanctions
a wrong, you consider it your duty to
uphold it. And because I am a wo
man you propose having me do the
work of a man with far less remuner
ation. And too, in America No sir
I will not teach your school until you
can afford to pay me what I earn.-~
