A city contemporary, which professes
to bare the peace and interests of "Nash"
villff and the State greatly at1 heart, but
often very awkwardly shows it, on Hnn-
dav raorninei trontrht us to account for
the exposure of one of the most diaboli
cal pTote' over hdtched ' in this, country.
(in Saturday morning it manifestly
showed its purpose to ridicule tho whole
affair as a mcro sensation. Tho next day,
without giving the testimony elicited, U
'passed It over a"Chl JdhnCdrper'B Cton
apiracyi" and Vroceedod to lidld us' to
task for injuring tho business of this city
Would our respected iontomporary havo

irfed fci give aid a'nd comfort'to those whp,
from partisan sympathy' or' for other!

abolical sehomo ever brought to light in

it worn workinii in , a common cause
bavin in view aliko tbo safety, tbo free
dom and the prosperity of this people
Jmt that it should treat as trivial or as
mischievous an effort of ours to expose
Biicb a matter as the contemplated de
struction of: our' city and others, . ercitos
our special wonder. "That tho Had
ical organs Bbould endeavor to
lidioulo n nlot which involves their
partisans in such infamy, was per
baps natural ; but not so, wo supposed
with our Dcadorick street contemporary
especially in an effort to expose, at some
cost and luuard to oursolves, what has
turned out to be a most dangerous series
of faots existing in our very inidsL Wo
most earnestly protest before this com
inanity ugainst tho course which it is
taking in this matter. Whilo tho inves
tigation, briof as it was, was being made,
it anticipated tho result bofore, ,it was
oven partially concluded, pronouncing it
a "sensation."
Lot us recur to the facts as elicited
and substantially published by us on
Sunday, which were equally accessible
to tbo Manner, proven by many of the
most rospoctod men in tbo community:
whoso won! would bo taken any whore.
1. That John Carper is a bold, rcsoluto
man, and sincorcly believes that tho negro
is superior to, or, at least Bbould govern
the wbito man. Upon this subjoct fioino
of the witnesses thought ho was a mono
mnniae, and this was the only evidonce
of bis being crazy.
2. That he has always been a man o
intonso- feelings; demonstrative, bitter
and relentless towards adversaries, or
thojajhe did not like.
3. That for sovonil weeks past bo has,
boon in tbo habit of congregating largo
numbers of negroes at bis bouse, both,
day and night, especially on Sunday, and,
has constantly tatiglit them that they;
could not copo with the wbitos in open
war, and tbuir truo modo of warfare was
by burning bouses when "the thing"
should start; and that tbo advice applied
to Nashville, Kranklin, Columbia, l'ulas
ki and Murl'rocsboro.
4. Tho proof further ehowed, as woj
aro informed tho writer of this not bo-i
ing prc-sont that Carpor 'claims to havoj
origipated this plan of conducting war
of races, and that bo intonds to lead it ;
that bis wifo encouragos him in it by say-,
ing alio in proparod to sot firo to her own(
houso whon tbo limo comes; and tnat ho'
advises tho killing of all ages and sexes.
. Tbo proof further showed that Car
per was ivman of some property; that ho
is a inonoyvniaking man ; that bo always
has monoy on deposit; that ho is prompt
and accuralo in bis business transac-i
tion
ij, that ho js a. man of truth;, that ho
ind'tn his'frionns except' 'whon ' en-;

yrocs have respect for and confidence
in him.

to nnotber negro tbo fact of an organiwa-
tien to burn Uio oity which ho, of
course, deuiod whon questioned as to his
guilt ;
These, wo learn, wcro aworn fants.'
h'or several days it lias been said on the,
streets, and published in ono ,of tbo city
palter, that'll lladieal sioaker had re
cently advised, in a public speocb, tbo
negroes t arm thpwsclvos iithas'
not boon oontniilictwl that we know of.
Many other incident have occurred
within the last few week? which ( havo
impressed 'this community nrfounly that
Hirwas not right1 ' " 1 '
It was suggostod at thuoloso of Uio in-t
vofltigatioti that an inquisition of lunacy!
be hold upon Mr. Carper: 'Has any step
been taken in that behalf ? By this means;
it was sought to avoid making 'tha (fiiefe

OEX. TII03IA& VIEWS OF THE SITU
ATION IN TENNESSEE.
Gen. Thomas takes a more rational
view of the situation in Tennessee and of
the-duty. of. theXegislaturcthaiu.wo.had.
expected of him. In a letter to a mem
ber of the Legislaturej he writes as -fol
lows:
August, 3, 1863. On my return to Lou
isville from an inspection trip to West
Tennessee, I had the honor to receive yodr
favor of the lStu ult.
"I agree with you that the state of allairs
in Tennessee, bo far aa I can jadge by read
ing the papers, ia far from pacific I be
lieve, however, if the aewspapcr report of
an interview between some of the late Con
federate officers and a committee of the
Tennessee Legislature, be true, lben there
is some hone of a ueaceable andSmicable
adjustment of the difficulties now threaten-
ing me peace ana weiiare oi iue oiaic.
"I read with much interest the speeches,
or rather assurance, given by both parties.
and am elad to find that they were mum
allv conciliatory and friendly. I therefore
sincerelv hone that thev may be able to ar
ranee a peaceful plan of settlement, and
that Tennessee may be in a prosperous con
dition at an early day.
"It will require the utmost care to recon
tA I flic mn llii-lin: interests, but 1 sin
cerely hope the Legislature' will be equal
to the task imposed upon it.
Gen. Thomas' recent visit to Tennessee
has convinced him that the responsibility
of preserving the peace in this State rests
now upon tbo Legislature, and it will be
seen be entertains a fear that that body
is not "equal to the task imposed upon
it." Tho members of the Legislature
have professed great confidence in Gen,
Thomas Now let thpm illustrate this
c.onfiilenei! bv meetintr tbo crisis as he
suggests.
A. UADIt'Al. J1MU1I.K FOILED.
In the desperate determination to so
cure tho electoral vote of the South
orn States for; Grant and C-olfax, the
Radicals havo hit upon tbo expedient o
taking tho election out of tho hands o
tho voters, and it is already in contem
plation in sovoral of theso States to havo
the electors appointed by the conventicles
of carpet-baggers and negroes dignified
with the name of Legislatures. lint this
adroit scheme meets with an insurmount
able constitutional obstacle, and tho "en
gincersarc hoisted with thoir own petard.'
Tho fourteenth article of tho Constitu
tion, just declared valid and binding
says :
"When the right to vote at any election
for the choice of electors for l'resident and
Vice President of the United States, Itepre
Bentativefl in Congress, the Executive ami
judicial officers of a State, or the members
of the Legislature thereof is denied to any
of the male inhabitants of such State, be
ing twenty-one years of age and citizens of
the United States, or in any way abridged,
except for participation in rebellion or
other, crime, the .basis of representation
therein shall be reduced. in the proportion
whirli the number oPTsuch male citizens
shall hear to the whole number of male
citizens twenty one years of age in Btich
State."
It is held that the first sentence of this
article inhibits State Legislatures from
the right formorly enjoyed undor section
first of tho socond article, mI assuming
bi appoint Presidential electors, as was
the practice in South Carolina prior to
the war and "reconstruction."
I11POKTANT TESTIMONY.
Tho Kadicals are urging as a reason
for calling out the militia, the iisecurity
of life and proporty in portions of Middle
Tennesseo from tho operation of tho Ku
Klux, and they point to Lincoln, Mar
shall and Giles as counties in which the
life of a Union man, wbito or black, is
constantly in danger. The Hev. I'etor
Lowery, (colored,) who is President of
tho Tennessee Manual Labor School, an
institution in which it is proposed to
educate the negro population, has been
canvassing Middle Tennesseo for sub
scriptions to aid in building up tho pro-,
posed sohool, and he has met with grati
fying success. In a card Of thanks pub
lished in the Fayottevillo Ncwi of the Nth
inst, he says.
"I have been told that tit would be dan
gerous for me to travel through Marshall,
Giles and Lincoln, but in passing through
these counties, I never received lielter treat:
menl, and I can safely say, that no one need
be apprehensive of danger, from any
source whatever, if he will but behavo
himself."
lloro is the testimony of a well-known
colored man, whoso wprd is worth more
than all tho sensation Htorica with which
tho Kadical press is burdened, that any
juamvhO' will" behave 'himsolf is safe in
these counties. Of course there can bo
no use . for militia in such communities,
oxeept to utir up ntrifo.

CyMr. rxosser: Whereas, Itis the pride aid
boast of all republican institutions that their
nbiccts and aims are trio mointonnnrn nml n lo
cution of tho laws, so ns thereby to insure pro
tection to life, liberty and property; and,
Whcrcrs. Certain ablo and influential men
who wcro tho leaders of tho soldiers' of Tonnes
seowho took part in tho rebellion, have raan
fullyTmd voluntarily dome forward and tendered
their services, influence and hearty co-operation
in all necessary measures' for the maintenance
of peace, preservation of order, and tho uphold
ing and sustaining of tho Constitution and laws
ofthuStato, as ut present existing, and have
pledged their honor and their efforts for the
furtlierenco of these very desirable ends. And
many good and peaceably disposed citizens; who
once wero soldiers in tho Itebel army under
those same leaders, will imitate their example,
as once thoy followed them in war, and there
by promote the objects aud purposes of this
General Assembly, to-wit: the peace of the
country and the welfare of tho State and
Whereas, As their personal and united offoj-ts
in this good causo aro ail tho guarantee that any
of them can give; uud, in order that should
they fail, wo may be ready and fully prepared for
any emergency thatshoutd arise inconseiuenco
of said failure or other unexpected cause, au
thority should bo given tho Governor to organ
ize, arm, equip and call into service a force suf
ficiently largo to meet tho cirwgoncy. and there
by effect that which tho efforts of all good and
truo men. irrespective of party, couldnot other
wis secure : and
Whereas. Tho franchise law, as now found
upon the statutes was never intended to be per
manent but transitory , depending for its limit
ol life altogether upon the conduct of those who
acted in such a way as to bring thein?clves
within its provision, and
Whereas, The earnest of tho good conduct
now promised, if carried successfully into prac
tice, so as to convince all men that it is no long
er a necessity to protect citizens of the State
against wrong and oppression, will by its fulfill
ment change and modify tho viows of nil lovers
of liberty, justice and peaoo: therefore
!o it ltcolved by tho General Assembly of tho
Stato of Tennessee, That it isncitlier thoaiin nor
the desire of this ticneral Assembly to force n
conflict of any character whatever, but regards
it as its solemn duty to clotho tho Kxecutivo
with ample authority to protect tho citizens of
tho btxte, or any part ol tne Mate, against
violcncoto cither person or property, or both,
come from whatuvor iiuarter it may. i
ltcsohcd. That with tho peoplo themselves
rests tho settlement of that question as to
wbcthor or not Micro shall be a necessity for tho
Kxecutivo action contemplated herein, and that
tho best uvidenen which can bogiven of tho co
operation of all good citizens with tbo men
hereiubeforo referred to, will bo found in such
a course of conduct as will preclude tho neces
sity of any resort to force to aid in executing tho
laws of tho State und giving protection to its in
habitants. Resolved, That should thoro bo no necessity
for such Kxecutivo action, tho provisions and
pledges referred to in the foregoing preamble
will have boon modo good, and thereby tbo
minds of all truo patriots will bo favorably im
pressed aa to Uio removing of tho restrictioni
imposed by tho Iranchiso act in nccordanco with

Special to tho Louisville Journal.
Washinoton, August 9, 1868. Tbo
friends of Senator Hendricks in this city
have received cheering letters from In
diana. Mr. Pendleton writes a relative
here that the prospect in Ohio is good. The
Democrats in JVIaine expect to make ct
tensivo gains in September.- The extreme
far Weit looms up beautifully.
A nuniberof New York politicians called
on the President yesterday. In conversa
tion on the subject of the Presidential
campaign, one of the party asked Mr.
Johnson what be thought of Seymour, to
which A. J. replied, shrugging his shoul
ders: "What does Gov. Seymour think
of the Administration?" Itis hinted by
those who have tho secrets of the back
staircase at the White House that Mr. John
son is not disposed to commit himself in
the present national struggle. The recent
sensational reports about tho Cabinet are
unfounded. Welles, .Browning and Mc
Culloch are a shade worse than doubtful'.
Evarts is also doubtful. The only person
of the Executive family who is an out-and-out
Democrat js Senator Patterson, of Ten
nesaec, the President's ion-in-law.
The internal revenue, imbroglio seems
as far from, settlement as usual. Rollins
baa played bis cards well and still holds
the place. JJe ia in close league with the
Radicals and has the Jaw on his side. The
President wanted to appoint JJurbridge,
bnt it is said was deterred bytrong letters
from. Kentuckyk 1 am authorized to utate
tliat Mr. Belmont did not recommend Ibir
bridge. Attorney General Evarts expects
to give bis opinion on the President'fl ac
ceptance of Rollins' resignation, at the
Cabinet meeting, on Tuesday The legal
authorities prepared for the opinion are'all
adverse to the jiosition assumed by Mr.
Johnson.
The question of preserving the peaCe in
the Southern Stitcs is seriously engaging
the attention of the Administration. The
consolidation of the troops in those quar
tern contemplated in recent orders will be
stopped, and they will be allowed to re
main in their present locations, subject to
the same orders that apply in General
Thomas' department; that U to say, they
will not be called into requisition to do po
lice duly, except upon the call of the Gov
ernors or. Legislaturea of tho Stales in
which they are stationed.
Tha Radicals of this city, hounded ou by
Forney, aru very indignant because ('apt.
Buchanan, of the Confederate navy, has
been made President of the Maryland Ag
ricultural Colleges. Captain Buchanan is a
nati vo Marylander ; related to the best peo
ple in the State; and perfectly competent.
But the Radical idea is that a. Rebel must
either starve or turn Radical.

The .Recent Rains. Providence has
again visited us with plentiful showers.
Corn is growing more rapidly than has
been known for many years in the same
length of time. Partners are looking for
ward with bright hopes of gathering an
abundant corn crop. The pasture fields are
rejoicing over the recent showers. The
newly sowed buckwheat fields bid fair to
produce a plentiful crop. Prospects are
good for a large yield of potatoes, which,
as a matter of course, will rejoice the hearts
of our Irish friends.. Jonesboro Flag,

AIINUUrilKSENTATIONS.
Mr. Medlin, who claims to be a Repre
sentative in the Legislature from this
county, stated before the Military Commit
tee the other day that Generals Campbell
and Jackson made very inflammatory
speeches in Jackson recently, and that
Gen. Forrest had said, nt Humboldt, that
if the militia were called out, be would
call his old soldiers together and crush the
militia out. Also, that be (Medlin) hafl
serious fears of his life in this county I
This is in perfect keeping with the mis
representations pnt forth by Medlin and
others last year.
Now, with the aid of our car-trumpet,
we beard every word spoken by Generals
Campbell and Jackson, and prouounce the
statement of Medlin to be false. Gen
Forrest, we learn, is at Nashville, and
in the presence of Medlin, and before
the Military Committee, pronounced the
charge, so far as he was concerned, to be
falseTlben Medlin explained, by saying
be heard it as a rumor! SofkrasMed
lin's fears aro concerned, we have to say
that we are willing tot go on the bond for
the whole county to keep the peace against
him. There is not a man in the county
who would as soon strike a woman in a
delicate situation as to attack him. So
banish your fears, and come to Jackson, or
elsewhere in the county, as yon have done,'
and we go security that nobody will notice
you! ,
It will bo remembered, that last year,
tbo same system of misrepresentation was
practiced by the Radicals against the peace?
ful citizens of this county, without tho
slightest cause of justification.
When a Capt. Kirk, with his barefooted
militia arrived here, he wrote to Gen.
Cooper that there were fifteen hundred
armed Rebels in Jackson that the even
ing before the Rebels bad "killed three
darkies and bung two of them over a fence
by the feet 1" Knowing that there was not
a word of truth in the statement, we got
Mr. Allen, agent of the Freedraen's
Bureau, and a Northern man, to go with us
to disabuse the Captain's mind, and request
him to correct the falsehood. He scarcely
treated us with common courtesy, and has
failed to correct the falsehood to this day.
The Radical papers published the state
ment, but also refused to correct it. It was
by such disreputable means that our citi
zens were cursed with the militia, who,
when here, robbed white and black indis
criminately. It was by the same dis
reputable means that the Legislature based
its action in removing the Supreme Court
from Jackson. Such acts of meanness ought
to drive every honest man from such a
party. Jackson Whig, Aug. 8.
