Some nf the foregoing details I am
neither prepared to endorse nor con
tradict, nut tne main tacts, that tne
Hoction was held in ojen violation
the law and Constitution of the State,

TUB ANSWER.
From the Nashville Union and
American of Tuesday we copy the fol
lowing in answer to the above ma
liciously conceived and infamous doc
ument: We print elsewhere to-day the
remarkable memorial of Horace May
nard and his co-memorialists to Con
gress, praying that body to upset the
State eovernment in Tennessee. This
j modest prayer is based upon the as-
1 . ! . 1 , l. I , ,., ,1 nt.iAlirin
-UIUIllOU Willi lllf ilUIUl vn. uvsu
carried by fraud ; that men ineligible
were allowed to vote; that youths un
dor twenty-one years of age voted;
that false and fraudulent votes were
counted; and "that illegal votes so
iast were of such great numbers as to
le in excess of the majority by which
said election was determined in a ma
jority of counties, so that by said ille
gal votes the persons and character of
the majority of members of the Gen
eral Assembly were determined."
This last specification, which Ls the
-eventh, contains the gravamen of the
liillof indictment against this State.
Fortunately we are not without the
proof to show that this charge is ut
terly groundless. We have procured
from the office of the Secretary of
State a transcript of the returns of the
number of votes registered ' y the
registrars of seventy counties in the
State under the Brownlow regime, the
registrars of the remaining fourteen
counties having made no return
j These returns embrace all the voters

This table shows that only .i2,lti7
i more persons voted in these seventy
: counties than were registered by the
Itrownlow registrars previous to
; March 1, IStW. It is admitted even
j by ltadicals, that the Supreme Court
by its decision at Brownsville restored
; the rights of the ballot to at least
."state, hvery man at all acquainted
with the people of the seventy coun
ties we have included in our compar
ative table.knows that they contained
largely over MM citizens who were
entitled to vote under a fair and just
construction of the franchise law, but
were denied registration upon one
pretext or another, the real reason,
however, bting that they would not
vote the Radical ticket. It was for
this refusal to register men clearly en-
titled to vote under " the constitution
and law" of the State, that Governor
Senter removed so large a number of
registrars. This statement of facts
figures copied from the official records
in the Secretary of State's office com
pletely disproves the assertion of Mr.
fin Mi J mud and his co-memorialists,
that the August election was
carried by fraud and illegal votes.
That having been disposed of, the
whole memorial falls to the ground as
a piece of malignity hatched up by a
set of men who feel that their tenure
of office will soon close, if they cannot
get Congress to repeat the Georgia
outrage upon Tenuessee.
There is one point in regard to
fraudulent registration to which we
desire to direct attention in this con
nection. In " loyal East Tennessee "
we find that the registrars appointed
by Gov. Brownlow had registered In
all but two counties iii that division
of the State lH.Mil citizens up to March
l,s.,:i, a- legal voters, and that at
the August election there were 42,705
