.S'.twithm anijiij the diipatch tent
by Secretary Freling-huyeen on bt-balf

Vkbt lew people down this way will
turn aside to weep at the announcement
that the New York Graphic newspaper is
about to go into liquidation, and will in all
probability cease to flaunt its miserable
and worse than wood-cut engravings bo
fore the public, and to abuse and slander
Southern people with a Sendiah persist
ency and ferocity. A dispatch slates that
the debts of thecompany amount to about
77'J,6(JO, and that the assets aro only
worth $40,000. If its conductors had
spent leu time iff trying to place Tennes'
see and other Southern States in the light
of repudiating pnblio debts, they might
have had more time nnd succeeded bet
ter at paying their own private debts.
Tho Graphic has been the organ
and sewer system of the riqgs and
speculators about New York who desired
to heap their flllhy, spiteful unathamas on
the people of Tennessee, Nothing too
mean could be written for that paper.
Many of its marked copies have boon sent
to this olSce, though this is the first time
we took any notice of tho fact, We will
send a marked copy of, this paper in
return for all past favors,
The personal credit of the farmers, mer
chants and bankers of this State is as good
at home and abroad in proportion to capi
tal as the average credit of other States,
North or South, As to the;State debt, the
people are voluntarily paying 50ceiiU on
the dollar, and that on a debt much of it
made whilst they were disfranchised. This
ieas much as tbey owe in equity or mor
His, This much they will pay cheorfully,
although it is a great hardship. If the
Graphic will do as well by its creditors
they will no doubt be thankful at receiv
ing more than there is now any prospect
of getting;
became
SoMioftho northern papers
considerably agitated on account of the
President in his message using the form of
expression "the United states are, eto.
They think they delect in this a lurking
recognition of the doctrine that the States
aro sovereign, and that this big nation
only a union of small nations. ThePreeident
may have been govorned by grammatical
forms or usaga lather than any political
tenet or dogma. But if it can be shown
that he hinted at the existence or survival
of any State's rights it will settle him in
the Chicago convention, especially
Southern representation is not cut down,
For it is to be remembered that Southern
Republicans do not believe in the heresy
of State sovereignty even in the fifth de
gree, and that they are about as numerous
in a national convention as all the North.
Possibly the President had read the con
stitution of the United States in which
the plural form occurs; if so, he is
onsiderably ahead of most of his party
outside of a few lawyers and Congressmen.
The lay members for the last ten or fif
teen years have bean content to read the
post bcllum amendments and not go
backwards. Their party notions are
strong enough if they could prevail to
break down the well established rules of
grammar as well as wipe out State lines
and have the country ruled by United
Statea Marshals.
A New fork letter to the Ciooin
nati Knquirer lays: You well know
V. K. fitpvenson, of Tennessee. I
lately met his eon, who U one ol our
most enterprUing real estate .men.
Said he: "When the war broke out I
was a small boy, and was lent to the
Confederate West Point at Marietta,
(Ja., where we bad about 600 cadets.
My father subscribed to tlUO.OOO ol
the Confederate loan at par. lie loat
all his negroes, and I am glad ol it
Althoutb I waa on the oppoiiite side, I
am perleetly satisfied with the result.
Land so is-everybody else ot good sense
that 1 have talked to. Uur ladies tn
the South were so gallant lor the war
that they really made me believe 1
oould go out with a wheat straw and
whip every invader across the lines.
My grandfather, alter the Federals
got into Chattanoogo, bcoame so pa
triotic that he wrote my father a letter
tbat I ought to be taken out of the
military sshool and sent to the battle
field. My lather merely inclosed the
lotter to me without any remarks, and
thereupon I went to the oommandant
of the aoademy and asked 'or my dis
charge, 19 1 was going to enlist in the
ranks to be sent to the front. 1 en
listed in an Irish regiment, entirely
oomposed of railroad laborers, and we
started lor the battle field ot Chioka
mauga in box oars, every soldier being
possessed ot t canteen filled with New
Orleans rum. You oan imagine what
a diabolical scene wa in that oar
fighting all the way along; but I was
regarded as quite young hero. We
had a terrible battle, and in the ex
citcmcnt I had no time to think. It
got eut, however, who my lather was,
and I was put on the stall ol a man
named Benton Smith, who was only
twenty three years old and a General.
Htntoo Smith, resumed Air. fete
uenson, being called the boy Gene
ral, eonoluded that he must have a
staff entirely of boys He was a prod
igy ol audacity and courage, but his
high, nervous nature at last wore him
out. lie always kept his aids right up
to the front, and I saw that unless
something happened I would be shot.
Just before the big battle at Atlanta,
where Wof hereon was killed, smith s
brigade was roioTorocd by i Georgia
regiment nearly a thousand strong. I
went to a hospital the mormoKot that
battle, where I saw a pile of legs and
arms amputated, and it made me sick
at the stomaob, being quite another
lesson of the war. Finding one of our
aids with several canteens ot peach
brandy, I asked him to let me have
one to settle my stomach, and drank
the whole of it. Smith then ordered me
to lead the Georgia regiment into the
battle. 1 was blind drunk, and oharged
my horse right over the Federal ram-
arts, tie had both eyes shot out and
oth knees broken: and as 1 wentno the
rampart 1 eould near the lankees cry
all down the line, 'Don't shoot that
boy.' My life was roally saved by my
youth. It was that charge, as I have
understood, whiob led to Alcfbersoo s
death. I was twice promoted lor ml
lantry on the battle field, and upon my
soul it was nothing but that peach
brandy.
What
into?"
"I was in the fight at Jonesborough,
whoro wo were badly whipped, and
then went to Tuacumbia. Ala., and
continued on with Hood's invasion of
Tennessee. At tho battle ot Nash
ville I had the good fortune to be cap
tured, and was sent to Fort Delaware
for a good many months. There my
mother's brother, Judgo Catron,
ol the supremo Court, sent me
$100 a month. Toward the close ol
(he war my father, with Jt. T. Wilson
of this oity. Mr. Evans, President of
one ol the Wall street banks, and one
other, established tho tsee bine ol
blockade runners from Wilmington to
Liverpool, and they put their profits
in bank in England. Bo, when I oame
to New York I found my father quite
comfortable, and I have been but 36
hours in Tennessee since the war
olosed."!
