For Governor,

Election First Dy of August.
THE GVEKSiOHHIP.
Having Blrearly exersieed tbe prerogative of
expressing our preference for Governor Harbis
as between the two gubernatorial aspirants
now in the field, we this morning, in accord
ance with a custom Irnz observed by tbe press,
plsce bis name at the bead of our columns.
We do this, net so much aa tbe advocate of his
personal cliims upon tbe confidence and grat
itude of tbe people of Tennessee, at in tbe ca
pacity cf an Independent journal for tbe good
of tbe coTrraonwealth. While we shall aup
port bim w tb a proper degree of real, we shall
bare no word of abuse or disparagement for
tbe Ijocorable and high-toned gentleman who
is Lis adversary in tbe contest. Hey have
betb entered tbe fieli for he suffrages of tbe
p p'.e, and let tbe ballot box speak tbe pro
he's preference without stirring up old
prejudice or begetting political discord.
rtUt REVIVAL OF OLD PARTY
IJiSit KS.
We bad entertained tbe hope, that after tbe
unmistakable and comparatively unanimous
edict cf tbe people cf T nnessee at tbe ballot
box on Hm eighth of June last, we all, however
wide'y rlit idri, wou'd be of one party in tbe
futi'e, who? principles would be the same,
and whose platform would ignore, If not abso
lutely repudiate, every issue not redoanding
manifes ly to the weal of our newly adopted j
country. But it is with a ft-ling of painful I
dlsap-xnrtmer.l that we have recently witness- j
e ? r- - nrpufable attempt upon the part I
of two or three political journals in tbe State
to revive o'.i party feuds, and tbna reopen the :
fes'crirr; wondeof patty animoaity tbt hare
M yet ecarcelv ha i ime to be staunched of j
tbeir bleeding. Having fotigbt tbe cause of
soutbern independence as long aa public opin
IM would tolerate their treachery, and clung
to submission long efter it had ceased to be
respectable, these journals orly cea?ed tbeir
Ti'uDerations upon tbe Soutb when driven to
such a course by tbe probable alternative of
becoming victims to the indiscretion of the
EGb. Dissatisfied tn their new attitude as co
lahorers with tbeir farmer adversaries in tbe
political field, they now, like masked batteries
in the southern camp, have commenced to in
sidiously tura their conten's upon til
who bad the temerity to stiver a lance
with them previous to the defeat of secession
in tbe February elscti.n. For tbe better pur
pose of hoodwinking tte honest masses, and
of thus effecting tbeir ineffably infamous pur
pose, these malcontents are seekicg to organ
ize a party in tbe present gubernatorial can
vass whose principles are to relate back to tbe
oH issues of Union and Secession, or at least
be bised upon prejudices engendered by tbos?
isue that yet slumbsr like expiring enbers
bene .'h the ashes of defeat. ""We can, of
co i'se, make no val:d objection to any number
of aspirants as thie, augbt we care, as au
tumns! leaves being brought into tbe race,
nor will we demur because this or. that news
paper may exercise its undt-puted right of
differing with us in a choice. But we do en
ter our emphatic protest, in tbe name of tbe
people of Tennessee, against tbe use of base
anc! dishonorable mea: s for the purpose ef
securing the success of any man whomsoever.
We shall be particular in the fir.ure, as we
hive been in the past, to say nothing
derogatory to the claims of any candidate
upon tbe ground of bis having once
been the hoaest and conscientious opponent
of tbe separation cf Tennessee from tbe old
federal Union. We have a right to expect the
same courtesy from others, and that man who
acts otherwise, either is the Instrument of bis
own or another's offic el advancement, must
hive a fearful reckooir.g to answer at tbe bar
of1 his own conscience. Those who design en
tering upen tbe dangerous experiment may as
we!' understand in tbe beginning, that tbe
people are not prepared to sustain them in
tt'is party chicanery, but will be prompt to
place all such extiibi ions of mischievous in
tent under the seal of their positive disappro
bation. Air movement that may be made oy
jo'.rr. Is, that are subsidized by self-interest
into the support of a csndi late's eiilra to
office, having in view the irritation of tbe
laues to which we have alluded, or encoura
ging scsssin-like assaults upon others who
may eppnse their fsvorite, should be visited
with a telling rebuke at tbe ballot box at the
Auri .it election. When two governments,
oncel'ving under tbs same regime, but now as
foreign to each other as are France and Ans
tria, ire engaged in deadly combat, no politi
cal crime that can possibly be conceived of,
is eo rOevjr criminal as that which throws tbe
firr brand of discord among us, resulting, as it
may, in stirring pp a fratricidal war,
attended with all its usual concomi
tant horrors. It will be well, therefore,
far certain journals in Tennessee, that have
been yelping at the heels of a gubernatorial
candidate who :.as be- n so very unfortunste as
to oppose tbeir own pet aspirant, if they would
p'u-e sad consider tbe danger of tbe policy
they are pursuing. They will discover before
three week" uore have passed, to tbeir ex
treme chagrin, tbstno man can be foisted upon
the people of this State, in any official capacity
whatever, through the defunct agencies of par
ty intrigue, or by malignant and unmanly as
saults upon an opponent whose character is
entirely beyond tb? rescb of his traducers. Un
less some change for the better soon tak a place
in the party-tactics of the class to wbicb we
allude, we shall feel justified in believing tbat,
a? mere professors of a f-u'h, the participants
in this conspiracy arc sheer hypocrites in our
political churcb, or else have backslidden into
the ii C lelity of unmitigated submissiocism
"like the dog returned to bis vomit, and tbe
sow to her wailowing in the mire."
H Good Ma Deceased. It is with feel
ings of deep and unfeirned rrgret that we
record the death of C. L Jacob S. Fou'e,
which tork lt.ee at his ret-idence in Jackson,
Mis ,sn Sunday last. Col. Foufe was a na
tive of Baltimrre, Md., from which place be
removed to Tennessee, where be was honored
ith -tbe confidence of tbe people by being
s?ec'ed to tbe legielature. From this Sta'e he
removed t Jack' on, Mls., and immediately
stood in the front rank of tbe legal profession
in honorable conflict with a bar which was
second to none in the South. The deceased
was in the 5Sh y- arof bis age.

no Bits' BtaTTI.K VET.
For the past few days tbe whole country
has lived in hourly expectancy ef bearing of
a regular pitched battle between Gens. John
ston and Patterson in Virginia. From the
following paragraph, however, which we
clip from the Richmond Ditpatch of the 9th
inst., it would seem that instead of coming
closer together, tbey are getting wider apart:
Gen. Johnston has resumed bis original po
sition at Winchester. This place is the com
manding strategic point of all that country.
He moved forward from it to meef Patterson,
but tbat general fell back into Mai tinsbuig, to
await reinforcements. Having the protection
of tbe town as a fortification, and its women
and children as a shield, be lies secure. John
ston, with his far inferior force, did not feel
justified in attacking, and Winchester being
the common eonvergme point of several roads,
be has felt bound to fall back upon that town,
lest McClellan or some other enemy might get
into his resr. He thus tains tbe advantage of
chosing bis own fighting ground against a
superior force, snd places his adversary at the
disadvantage of making the attack. Surely
after so many efforts to get a fight out of tl.e
enemy without success, our general may be
excused for resuming bis best position.
.
Lrops in Montgomery countv.-a
respondent of tbe Nashville Union ti,us writes
I of the crops in Montgomery county in this
i S.a'e: "The wheat harvest in the section of
,. i . ... . ,
, country that supplies the mills in the vicinity
' of Clarksville is finished, at.d tbe yield is ins-
i mense; never equaled in the memory of man.
I The corn and grass crops also look even, and
promise an abundant yield. Fully oue-balf of
the ground usually laid off for tobacco is this
season appropriate! to food for man and beast.
The stock of hogs is large, so that on the
whole the danger of being starved out by tbs
abolitionists is a bugbear tbat may do for them
to induce the deluded subjects of Kio.r L'ncoln
to carry on the unholy war, but has no weight
here in the South."
far A telegraphic dispatcb to the New Or
leans Drlta, dated Richmond, July Uth, says
that General Johns on, failing to induce tbe
enemy to give bim battle in tbe position he
took near Martinsburg, and, fin ling tbat Pat
terson was being largely reinforced, re'ired
upan Winchester, in order to place himself
within reach of the reserved force at Manas-
sas Junction. The indications, it adds, are thai
the enemy is about to make an early advance
upon Fairfax. If this statement be true (and
we notice that it is corroborated by the Rich
mond Dispatch of the 8 h inst ) the probability
is that tbe late rumor of a conflict between the
force of Patterson and Johnson is totally un
founded. f"Tbe Louisville Courier Las received
"positive and reliable information" in accord
ance with an understanding with the traitor
Andy Johnson as he passed through that State,
letters have been written from Kentuckv to
that corrupt and infamous man, advising bim
that it bas beer, decided to send tbe arms
which tbe administration desires to supply
to tbe lories In East TenBssee, to their desti-
nation via Louisville, Lebanon and Wheeler's
Gap.
The Wat Thet Love Us. The New
Haven Palladium gets off tbe following affec
tionately complimentary paragraph :
The Sepoyg of tbe South mere cruel and
cowardly than ever were the Nirth American
Indians saors degraded and loathsome in their
horrible barbarities than the vilest of tbe
tribes in t.ie center of Africa going beyond
the East Indian Thugs, who simply strangle a
man, and, so, quickly killing him these sava
ges seem bound to keep up their reputation for
inhumanity and b.trbarisnr.
QfTbe Montgomery Poit, of the !' h inst.,
says "volunteer companies from all parts cf
tbe State are continually passing through our
city, bound for tbe scat of war. They are all
a stout and brave looking set of fellows, and
will do tbeir duty when they meet the enemy."

tries; shot two, wounding them at least, and
took two prisoners, whom they brought
to camp, to the great relief of friends
wbo saw tbem start, and who were
consc'ous of the perilous adventure upon
which they started. Col. Terry's horse took

Important Arrest of a Rebel Rearer
ot Dispatches.
Edward R. Ruggles, a young man seventeen
years of age, is at present detained at police
headquarters, by order of secre'arv Seward, on
the charge of beirg a bearer of dispatches frcm
the rebel army, and also aa being an emissary
of the rebel government. The prisoner Is a son
of Gen. Ruggles, now commander of a portion
of the rebel forces is Virginia. He is a very
intelligent and highly educated lad, rather p c
possessing in appearance, and very engaging in
conversation, quick in perception and acute in
observation, and seem i eminently adapted to
the mission en wbicb be has been sent out.
He left Montgomery under private instruction,
received from Jeff. Oavis In person, and made
his way to Havana. From thst place be
proceeded to Aspinwall, where bis over in
quisitiveness in relation to American, Ocean
and California steamers attracted tbe atten
tion and excited the suspicion of tbe American
consul, who forwarded a description of his
person to Secretary Seward. Directions were
at once sent to Superintendent Kennedy to ar
rest tbe boy as he landed in New York. De
tectives Eustace snd Farley were intrusted
with tho caae. The lad arrived here, snd put
up at a C rtlandt Btrect hotel, under the name
of S yrnour, assuming the name to throw
tbe officers off the track, should there be any
after him. Three hours 8fter bis arrival, he
was safe In tbe bands of tbe detectives, wbo
at once lodged bim at headquarters. The
papers found upon him disclosed a most inge
nious and elaborate plan for capturing the
California st'amrrs, the details of wbicb
were to be cr.rried out with the greatest secre
cy. General Johnson, of Cal icrnia, was to
be in thej'plot. Ruggles had also carefully
prepared maps and many papers of great
value. The arrest is so important tbat Secre
tary Seward telograptu d Mr. Kennedy on
Sstnrday to use extra precautions in detaining
the prisoner. Young as he is be has no little
military experience, having been for several
years at the naval school at Annapolis. He
was born in a fort, was a constant attendant
upon bis father, who held a commission in
the army of tbe United States, and is there
fore wetl calculated to see and comment upon
any weak points, inforina ion of which might
be of service to the enemy. The future dispo
sition of the prisoner rests vith the depart
ment at Washington. New Tork World.

know tbe number of garments made, but they
go into tbe thousands. In times gone by, it
was deemed a great favor for a soldier in going
forth to do battle for his country, to take some
little gift from the hands of a fair la'dy, the
sight and possession of which inspired him to
deeds of bravery and chivalry on the battle

The Sklrmlsn Near Newport News.
Fretn th- Ricbmrnd rqnirer of the BJBal
On Friday morning, the 5tb Inst., about day
break, a skirmih took place Pet ween 100 Lou
isiana troops, (20 from each company of Lieut.
Col. Dreux's bsttallor,) and a body of the en
emy, supposed to be atout the same number.
Lieut. Col. Drenx had posted bis men along a
road by whi h the enemy were advancing. As
they approached, the eagerness of some of our
troops caused them to fire too soon. Tbe ene
my, thua warned, hastily fired and commenced
an immediate retreat. Unfortunately, one of
tbeir shots took effect upon Lieut. Col Dreux,
and be died in a few minutes He was in the
art of giving the order to fire when he received
the fatal wound. The only words he was
heard afterwards to say were "don't surren
der." The ball passed through his watch
crystal and sword belt, and entirely through
bis body.
The confusion, caused by the fall of Lieut.
Col. Dreux. was increased by tbe advance of
a body of Virginia cavalry, who were mista
ken for the enemy. The enemy themselves
claimed to be friends.'and cried, "don't shoot."
Taking advantage of his condition of things,
the enemy gathered t:p their dead and es
caped. BsideB Lieut. Col. Dreux, we lost one man,
W. S. Hacket, who vas serving as a volunteer
with the Sbreveport Grays. The loss of Lieut.
Col. Dreux is deeply deplored by his battalion.
He was a ge- tlemanrf r. high order of talents,
and of tLe most eminent worth. Hit. soldiers
loved bim to such a degree, tbat not a man
but what would have been willing to die bv
bim and die for him. He was devoted to them
and they to him. The service has lost a most
valuable officer, and the c tv of New Orleans
a highly esteemed and most useful citizen.
He was ab,-u thirty years of age, and leaves
a wife and one child.
Tbe lrs r.f tbe enemy, from the causes e
plsined. wag much less than it would have
been. Frm six to eight arc known to have
been killed. The whole body of the enemy
would doubtless have fallen into our hands, if
tbe skillful arrangements of the Confederate
commander had been carried out.
Mr. Hack'tt was about twenty-one years of
age. He was la tbe ac of taking a second fire
at the enemy, when he fell mortally wounded.
The zouave who killed Col. Dreu was nh.
j served by our troops, and was instantly shot
down.

THE riUHTlN iniSSOCHI.
Kansas City, Mo., July 8. We are in
d-tbted tf the Kansas Journal for a copy of the
Fort Scott Democrat of the 7th, containing sn
aecotint of a battle between the Missouri State
tro ips under Governor Jack-on and General
Rains, numbering, by their accounts, from ten
to thirteen thousand, and the United States
force under Col. Sigel, numbering one thousand
fiv hundred in all. Our fnformaut brvs that
on Wednesday, the third inst , the S'ate troops
left Rupe's Point and moved South to Murray',
six miles. On Friday morning at 8 o'clock,
they broke up camp and inarched soutb in the
direction of Carthage, the county-seat of Jack
son county. At Abbay Fork, seven miles
north of Carthage, they were met by Colonel
Sigel with fifteen hundred men, who immedi
ately gave them battle.
IfThe fi-st onset resulted in the State troops
being driven back some di3tar.ee, and the offi
cers ordered a retreat. The center gave way,
but the order not being beard on the flunks,
the advancing United States troops were in
danger of buing surrounded. 'I he flanks final
ly fell back, slowly keeping up tbe fight with
their ar'illery, which made fearful havoc in
the enemy's ranks. At the crossing of Dry
Fork our lines were very near being taken,
when by tbe arrival of 200 union men from
Shoal Creek, they crossed with a loss cf but
five killed and two wou-ided.
The battle continued, the United States
troops alternately fi;hting and retreating until
dark, when they reached Carthage, having
crossed Buck branch and Spring river. On the
wav the fighting was all done with the artil
lery, Col. Seigel retreating aa soon as they ad
vanced. It is believed th 't Col. Slegel's object wag to
draw the Sfate troops on Carthargc, when,
with 4tX) reserve troops at that place, and ex
pected reinforcements from Neosho and Sar
coxie, be would be enabled to turn and drive
back or ront them.
The loss on Jackson's side was very great.
Our informant says he counted 70 or 80 wound
ed left on the field and la houseg by DBS way
side. At Dry Fork a large amount of beef was
thrown out of wagons, It is supposed to make
room for the dead.
Another informant residing at Carthage
states that he passed over a part of the battle
field yesterday morning, and saw wagons ami
backs parsing to every direction ga'hTimrup
the dead for interment. The loss on the psrt
of the State troops cannot be less than from
310 to 500. The ground in many places was
strewn with dead horses, and the stench was
sickening. The whole country was laid deso
late; fences torn down, crops trampled Into the
ground, and bouses plundered. He met parties
of women wbo stated that everything had been
taken from them by tbe State troops except
what they bad on their hacks.
The retreat was conducted in a stvle worthy
of vetersn troops, and wifh as much coolness
as upon parade. R was only tbe overwhelm
ing od ls on the side of :he secessionists that
enabled them to carry the diy. The victory
was really wth Siegel
It was reported that a night attack had been
made on Siegel, and 400 of his troops killed
and 000 taken prisoners, with three pieces of
arti'lery, hut our informant says he overheard
a messenger from the secession camp say that
they bad killed only one man, after entering
Carthage, and had taken no guns.
Jackson announces his intention of fortifying
himself at Carthage until Price and Me Col
Inch arrive from Arkansas with reinforce
ments, when he will act on the offensive and
enforce the laws of the State.
Major Siegel retreated in the direction of
Sarcoxie, where he expected reinforcements.
Nothing can be heard from Major Sturgis or
Gen. Lyon.
Later July 7, 8 o'clock, p. it. A citizen
of this place has just arrived, having left
Sherman, Jasper county, at daylight this morn
ing. He states that aft-r leaving Carthage,
Cat. Siegel moved two miles southeast of the
town where he encamped for the night. His
command is badly cut up His loss is vari
ously estimated at from 300 to 1000 and that
of the secessionists from 1000 to 2000 killed
and wounded. Col. Brown, with 3000 troops
from Springfield, is said to have joind Col.
Siegel
Maj Sturgis is north of the Osage, and
Gen. Lyon at last accounts was at Warsaw,
on his way South.
On Friday, the day of the battle, Ben. Mc-
Cutlocb and Gen. Price arrived at Neosho, 20
rtibs south of Carthage, with 10,000 men. A
guard of 200 men left there by Siegel, was
surrounded and taken prisoners. One report
says that all were mu'dered, and another that
but a small portion of them were killed. M'
Culloch sent forward 2000 men ;o assist Jack
son. He expects oOOO additional troops from
Arkansas.
St. Louis, July 10. The Springfield eor
rsspondent of the Democrat, under date of tbe
8 h inst., gays, immediately af er tke arrival,
Brig. Gen. Sweeny at Springfield dispatched
messengers to Cols. Siegel and Solomon, who
were encamped at Neosho, to move their col
umns to Cartharg", which was promptly dooe.
Last night a messerger arrived from Col.
Siegel, stating tba'. Jackson and Generals
Price and Riins had united their forces, and
were encamped eight miles north of Oartbage.
Siegel and Solomon pushed forward rapidly
ana aitacKad the rebel rorce early yesterday
morning, and continued fighting during the
dav.
Messengers are constantly bringing infor
mation that the rebels are retreating gouth
eastwardly between Sarcoxie and Mount Ver
non, falling b.ick on Caseyville with tbeir bag
gage and plunder, un-'er covst of their cannon,
and Seigel attacking their rear.
This af'emoon Gen. Sweeny commands in
person a flying c-dumn " oving southwardly to
Intercept the rebels at Vernon, thus crushing
ibem comploUly between our columns.

A company of home guard arrived last
1 Igbt, bringing Col. Coffee, late member of the
legislature, aa a prisoner.
Later advices sav a rert reached Spring
field Sunday morning of an engagement be
tween uliO federalists, under Col. Wolf, and
1500 rebels. Wolf occupied a prairie when
the battle began, but the rebels retreating to
the woods he followed, and in skirmishing lost
30 m-n killed and wounded, he himself being
among the killed.
The loss of the rebels was considerable but
not definitely ascertained. A messenger was
then dispatched to Springfield for reinforce
ments, and the whole force pushed forward.
Gen. Lvo.i was at Leesville, Cloud county,
.in Sunday Morning. Maj. Sturgis was st
Clinton, Henry county, on the same day.
They expected to form a junction about ten
miles south of Clinton on Sunday night.

was a hard fight between the federal forces
and tbe Mis30t:riana under Gen. Raines, at
Pineville, near the Kansas line, and fifteen
miles from Camp Walker. It is said that six
companies of Arkansas troops were in the en
gagement. The express says he thinks Hie
Missourians got tbe worst of the battle. He
says there is 12 or 15,000 federal troops in
that region.
He also says Gen. Lyon and Capt. Price ?re
on their way to Arkansas, through KaDas,
with 5 or 6000 men. aiming for this post. Fort

Worth Thinking About. Wheat is sell
ing af $1 per bushel, corn at 30c.
Butter is worth in our town 10c. per ponn.t,
wool at a nominal price, and without demand.
These prices will be considered low ho n.tr
farmers. Mot of them have been enabled, by
their wealth, to hold over the larce stocks of
last year, in tbe hope of better prices.
The wives snd daughters of our country
fanners, very naturally, are indignant at the
miserably remunerative prices offered for tbeir
pains-taking products those products that
produce the comforts, the luxuries, the refine,
inents of agricultural life.
Do their masculine protectors tell them ihe
reason for this great change ? If tot, we will.
A change has come over cur country, almost
without observation, that bas stopped the
channels of trade, destroyed the business cf
the States, and threatens our very liberties.
Tbe fabric of your toil were consumed at

New Orleans Crescent, lOfA.
LATEST FKOTI Et BOPF.
We copy the following from the New York
Daily News' Psris letter of June 8.h :
This government will, upon good and suf
ficient security, now offered, it is positively
said, by th-e Southern commissioners, let the
Confederate States have no less than $100 -f00,000.
Certain Immunities of trade, cer
tain advantages on the Gulf of Mexico, cer
tain co-operation in Mexico itself and at the
Is'hmns of Panama, will secure this, and
Spain, which is growing strong in the sun
shine of Imperial favor and advice, will not
only abstain from objection, but will, to all In
tents and purposes, aid this movement.
Ttir report of great discoveries of the pre
cious metals in at least three of the Soutbern
States, on the Atlantic seaboard, is confirmed.
Specimens are on exhibition in the private
offices of two or tttree noted bankers here, snd
the enterprise wbicb northern men might have
displayed in working the new California will
probably fall now, in a large measure, to
French engineers find capitalists. Statements
backed by sampleg and documentary proof,
have i-ren made to the emperor concerning the
vast supplies of iron, lead, copper, coal and
ship-buildirg timber the South has at com
mand with some ready cash capital to aid her.
I find tha' among thase wbo saiLd for New
Orleans some time ago, were a lanre number
of he old African Zouaves of ttie French ser
vice, snd officers, who go to organize battal
ions on tbat and the Turco ar.d Chasseur
d'Afrique principle. So you mav have a
chance of eeing a little of the African and
Crimean style of fighting the same which
made an impressiyo at Magenta and Solferino.
A legitimate suecessor of M Poltevin has
gone to Mobile wi h a series of big and little
war balloons, araorg tbem two of those
which were use! with such
valuable results
for reconnoitering purposes, by Napoleon in
northern Italy. He proposes', if tb South
can accede to his terms, to make Fort Pickens
untenable in for'y-eight hours, ami. by the
aid of a country.na -, who In 1859 degired
to cxprrim'nt at Cherbourg, in the waer.
to capture or destroy any blockading fleet f
within tbe radius o' five miles. These parties I
took with them also a new kind of steam '
wagon for eeassjMSj roads and prtable rafts j
for crossing rivers snd inlets. Thus you sre
likely to find the modern improvements intrc- I
dr.ced, on an extensive scale, in the hrrrible j
episodes of yoir civil war.
