If there be a eitrstsn. y(j Tennessee worthy to betir the nnrae, who, under the present h&pcct of 'riflairs, Is disposed to be indinercnt to the course of political events, nnd to sink into apathy, and give himself over to despondency; or, who would make his personal comfoit of mind or his privnte pursuitw, on excuse for re fusing to participate, to that extent that is the duty of eycry citizen, in directing and controlling public affairs, we ha vo a word for him. We use the term citizen in its broadest sense, and give it ageneral application. N e mean men ol every shade of political opinion, except that styled by those who hold it Radical Re publicanism : and of everv color those enfranchised and those disfranchised. Important changes have been wrought in our institutions by the war. Some of them are complete, nnd beyond the power of reversal, e'vennf it were desira blc to niter them. There were conflict ing opinions as to their justice and pro priety ; and a large majority of the pco plo of theState feel that they were the work of arbitrary force, selfishly and .wantonly wielded ; and feeling this grievance deeply, they have not yet come to a dispassionate f judgment of the in herent good and ill there may be in them. This was natural,) and to be ex pected. We cannot ask any man to "let his eye look like a friend" upon the ruthless innovations around hitn,nnd at onoo to cancel all his former iews, nnd concede that what he formerly condomned, is just and right and proper. Uut wc do ask that, as sensible, practical men, they shall, so fur ns they have tho power, lay hold of mutters, and endeavor so to shape the condition as to evolve from it nil the good it contains, nnd to prevent all the evil that it threatens. This is olearly the policy and the duty of every Conservative, whether ho was a Union man during the war, a Federal soldier, " Rebel" in arms, or a Southern syrapa- thizeR If tho management of affairs is left in the hands of those who nowccnlrol them, with the machinery which they hnvo ereoted in full operation, they will soon make Tonnessoe a hell. All that is now bad will be made infinitely worse. Evils existing will bo made more intoler able, and they will multiply. It is, there fore, the religious duty of every Conser vative man to arouse from indiffer ence and to throw off despondency, apd, by every legitimate means through which politicul influence can be exercised, to endeavor to eject from power the men who are driving tho State on the rock of destruction. Proconceived views and lin gering prejudices nlike, should be nban doned. There is before them a slern nnd actual state of facts. They cannot be changed nnd we must meet and manage them ns best we may. A united offort of all who recognize that the longer Continu ance of Radical sway will increase the mischiefs wo are subjected to, will put on end to it, and when conservatism assumes direction of the organic alterations which have been made, they may, and we have no doubt will, he wisely adapted and bo come as thoroughly harmonized with the sentiments and interests of the people, as thoy are firmly fixed in the body of our laws. So long as they are allowed to be usei for base political purposes, thoy will continue to disturb the public pence and mar prosperity, and so l&ng our rights und liberties will be at tho mercy or tho mailed hand of force, and will ultimately perish. 'I'lto colored voter in Tennessee may reattawured that the Conservntizo whites will maintain for him all tho rights he has under the laws, aud will nssist and eneourage him in learning to employ them wisely and to his advantage. Tho first losBon they will try to teach him is Conservatism. His political power is newly acquired. A breath made hint a member of tho body politic tho hot broath of revolution. A breath may un make him The ascendancy of a party that claims as its cardinal doctrine the necessity of Radical changes undor the name of progress, is a standing invitation to revolutions and counter revolutions. What might o his fate in another upheaval cannot be foretold. His security for the permanoncy of his right to assist in framing tho laws under which he is to live, is in stable and well ordered, economic government under a fixed constitution. Co-operation with his Conservativo friends will ensure him and them against the dangers of Radi calism; and wc therefore urgo that St is his duty to vote, and use every means of gaining tho information that will enable him to vote intelligently. If the men black and white in this State,' who nre deeply interested in tho overthrow of the reckless oligaroliy whose machina tions threaten ruin to every vital concern will bestir themselves, the State can be rescued.

Par sons, of Cleveland, as Marshal of that body under the law recently passed.; ' The President nominated 'to the Senate General Wousse, of Massachusetts, as Mar shal of that State. In a debate in the House, Mr. Wood- bridge alluded to a former remark of Mr. Blaine, that the action of the Judiciary Committee on impeachment was generally considered'a farce saying the committee had made an arrangement if the House ad journed, to come together about the Jirst of May, and continue the investigation. It was to be hoped by everybody that noth ing would appear that would render it necessary to impeach the. President, but if a state of facts should appear that would render it proper, the Judiciary Committee would not shrink from the re sponsibility, but would recommend a bill of impeachment. That was a duty which members of that committee did not seek a duty which they would be very willing to he rid of; but they would candidly and fairly, and without prejudice, examine the question, and report the convictions of their deliberate judgment.- Mr. Fernando Wood made some remarks against impeachment, for which there was not, as it stood, he thought, a shadow of proof. Mr. Butler supported the idea of im peachment by stating an important point in evidence that has been laid before that Committee. The President had, for polit ical reasons, pardoned one hundred and ninety-three deserters from a Western reg iment in order that they might cast their votes for a Democratic candidate for Con gress. He. himself, supplied testimony. he added, resulting from the pardoning of tuts natch of deserters, which entitled them to claims to the amount of $75,000, that would have otherwise been forfeited to the national asylum of soldiers. He also stated that Col. B. Florence had received $10,000 for his services as media tor in that matter. Air. Marshall said it was not proper to speak of what had occurred in the commit tee, but if all the facts count be latd bare. the statements of Butler were unauthorized, and brought before the House in a manner improper and discreditable.

H. C. King, Editor of the New Or leans Jtiifti, New Orleans, La. Dear Sir: You have done me the honor to call for my opinion relative to' the action of the South tinder the military MR. Having seldom taken any part in politics, I do not feel well qualified to advise on so momentous a question: nevertheless, as the same desire to obtain my views haa been manifested from various quarters, 1 shall not shrink from the responsibility ot ex pressing them, in the hope that they may tend to quiet the public mind, so justly alarmed at this moment. In inv humble opinion, we have but one of two things to do resist orsubmit; the first is inadmissible, in our painfully ex hausted condition. Fouryearsof adespeate war have taught us that the "argument of the sword" can no longer be resorted to by . I T TV I us to rearess our grjeyuiiueii. n o uiiui, therefore, submit: but with that calm dignity becoming our manhood and our lost independence. Havlne been overpowered in the late struggle, we can submit to the harsh and ungenerous conditions ot our conquerors without dishonor, and we must adopt the least of the two evils : a futile resistance would only cause our rivets to be driven closer; we must then acquiesce or leave the country. Jiut we love too dearly me land of our birth to abandon it iti its hour of severest trial. We should avoid, also, bringing it, by internal dissensions, to the condition of poor Mexico, and the un fortunate South American republics. ith regard to the sutlrage ot the ireetl men, however objectionable it may be at present, it is an element of strength for the future. If properly handled and directed, we shall defeat our adversaries with their own weapon. The negro is Southern born ; with a little education and some property qualifications, he can be made to take sufficient interest in the affairs and prosperity of the South to insure an intelligent vote on his part. In our future political contests with the North, on protective tariffs, internal im provements, etc., the freedmen of the South will side with the whites of the South and of the West, and they will thus contribute to give us back the influence we formerly had in the councils of the nation. Out people should understand that the Radicals can remain in power only so long as the public excitement is kept up; as with the turbid waters of the Mississippi river, the sedimentary particles are kept up at the surface only so long as the waters are in motion ; the instant the current is checked those particles full to the bottom. Thus will it be with the Radicals, when peace and quiet are restored to tho country ; the Conservatives will then take the reins in their own hands, and the constitutional laws of the land will once more prevail, I remain, yours respectfu'ly, , G. T. Beauregard. I,IAUII.ITIES OF RAILROAOS-IM-PORTAXT DECISIONS. William Walker, a passenger on the Long Island railroad, was killed by a col lision in August, 18G5. He was, standing on the platform at the time, being com pelled to do so in consequence of the cars being full. A suit for damages being brought in the Supreme Court of New York, the jury brought in a verdict for Mr. Walker's administrator lo the amount of S2225, to which the court added an allowance of five per cent. The judge charged the jury that it is theduty of a con ductor to furnish seats lo all passengers. If he should fail to do this, and travelers be compelled to stand, even though they stand on the platform, and personal injury re sult, the railroad company cannot avail themselves of tho law which absolves them from liability by posting notices in thecars against standing on the platform. The Cleveland (Ohio) Leader reports the following decision, rendered in the Cuya hoga Court of Common Pleas, in the case of A. Abernethy vs. the Cleveland and To ledo Railroad Company: "In March, 18C5, a quantity of corn was shipped at Sandusky by the Cleveland and Toledo railroad, consigned to the plaintifl, at Buffalo. He was duly advised of its ship ment, but it did not arrive "on time," and after "waiting and watching" for several weeks, he commenced tracing it back. It was claimed by the plaintiff that the Cleve land and Erie Railroad Company .refused to receive and forward the corn upon its arrival in this citypbeing blockaded with freight, and it was unloaded in the ware house of Otis & Brovrnell. It remained there two or three months, and becoming damaged by heating, it was sold for fifty cents per bushel. Action was brought to recover damages of the Cleveland and To ledo Railroad Company. Judgment for the plaintiff in the sum of $351. OJJE MORE IN THE RING OF COMPETITION. TP YOU WANT A HOUSE BELL X hung by a practical workman, and on reasonable terms, call at the new establishment.

And again, as it is sometimos tbe custom of giving premiums, such as watches, etc.. and having proof of the lost two weeks' business that the citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to help the needy, we have therefora concluded to give ten per cent, of our profit to the poor of Nashville, from the 1st day of April. 1S07, up to October 1st, 1SG7, (six months.) which amount will be remitted weekly to the .Mayor of fcosh vllle.
