John Trimble, candidate for Con?
gress, and two candidates for tho
State Legislature, all radicals, had ai
appointment to speak yesterday at
Franklin, "Williamson County. A
large number of persons-white and
black-assembled; among the latter,
members of a loyal league, about
eighty in number, who paraded the
streets in rogalia, with a baud of
music, and armed-in some instances,
firing a salute. Tho candidates wore
heard without interruption. Subse?
quently, however, Trimble, when not
present, was denounced on tho public
square, and ono of tho legislative
candidates badgered for something
he had said. Muoh excitement arose,
and symptoms of ill-feeling between
somo of the whites and . colored
leaguers were developed. Tho
leaguers retired in bad humor to a
grove, where they were followed by
a son of Dr. Cline, who, iu a con?
ciliatory address, advised them to
disperse. They agreed to do this,
and marched back to their hall. 13y
this time, night came on, ami after
stowing away their regalia, ?fcc, they
left the hall and returned to the pub?
lic square, where a collision imme?
diately occurred. It is alleged that
they were fired on by a party of
white and colored conservatives-a
man named Cady, a livery stable
keeper, firing the first shot. Tho
fire was instantly returned. The
affair lasted but a few moments
hali a minute, perhaps. There ap?
peared to be a volley in attack, and a
scattering reply, resulting in tho
f death of Cady, who was shot through
the heart, and the wounding of eight
whites and eighteen blacks. Three
of tho latter fare mortally wounded.
Somo of the wounded blacks are
conservatives. Tho radical blacks
wero much exasperated, and threat?
ened to return and renew tho fight,
but Dr. Cliffe interposed and pre?
vailed upon them to desist. An
official investigation will be necessary
to fix the responsibility for this mur?
derous affair. It was apprehended
that the difficulty would be renewed
to-day, but all is quiet. A company
of the 45th Regiment left this place
this morning fer Frauklin, to main?
tain quiet. The affair is deplored bj'
all parties.
A despatch, dated 8th, says:
Gov. Brownlow's proclamation ap?
peared this morning. It commands
the commissioners of registration to
appoint clerks and judges of election;
commands the sheriffs to open and
hold elections on thc first Thursday
in August, and to mako returns as
vouched for by tho said clerks and
judges; instructs the dorks and
judges to make out and report sepa?
rate poll-books, record votes, and
send them io tho Executive and State
Departments as a provisiou against
neglect or death on tho part of tho
sheriff.
Ht? concludes by ordering com?
manders of tho State Guard to arrest
Judge Gant, Chairman of tho Cou
servative Central Committee, or any
of tho said committee or agents, if
they shall persist in their efforts to
defeat tho oxecution of the franchise
law as construed by him, and also to
break up and disperso all assemblies
having in view tho holding of illegal
elections or tho defeat of any regular
election.
Judge Gant and tho Central Con?
servative Committee lind previously
withdrawn their recommendation to
County courts to appoint judges and
dorks of eloctions, and advised all to
conform to the Governor's construc?
tion of the franchise law, though be?
lieving it wrong. No collision is
likely to grow ont of this subject.
Tho Chicago Journal knows of one
firm in Southern Illinois whioh sold,

40G new reaping machines.
The Condition of the South.
Wo extract tho following from an
article in the New York Herald, of
the 9th, commenting on the state of
nffairs in Tennessee:
Intelligent men, detailed from this
office, who have recently canvassed
the Southern States for information
touching their material, social and
political situation, report that Ten?
nessee to-day is by far in the most
disorderly, confused and turbulent
condition of any of tho States con?
cerned in the rebellion, and that Ten?
nessee and Kentucky, of all tho late
slave States, are moBt in need of Con?
gressional reconstruction from top to
bottom. Tho ono is so excessively
radical in its State administration, as
to call for the intervention of Con?
gress, and the other is so excessively
State rights as to be nothing better
than a chi]) of the old block of the
Southern Confederacy.
Tlie duty, therefore, devolving
upon Congress, of "guaranteeing to
each State a Republican form of Go?
vernment," would seem to demand
some positive legislation in behalf of
Tennessee and Kentucky, and, out?
side of their borders, wo dare say
there will be but little complaint
should Congress dovetail them in the
new bill of Southern reconstruction.
Meantime, it will be perceived, from
an inflammatory Jacobin speech by n
negro doctor of divinity-tho Row
Lewis Lindsay-at Mudwall, in Vir?
ginia, that the idea of enforcing so?
cial equality is getting into the heads
of tho Southern blacks. Their repre?
sentatives on tho stump have recently,
in various places South, been harp?
ing on tho stiling of confiscation and
freo farms; but in striking that bolder
note of enforcing negro social equal?
ity, the Rev. Lewis Lindsay is touch?
ing moro emphatically the sanguinary
music of St. Domingo. In : i' these
manifestations from tho Southern
blacks, and in the opposing spirit of
tho whites, wo can seo only, if left to
themselves, the gathering elements
of a reign oi terror and o war of races;
and a war of extermination, too, in
tho South.
How is this to bo prevented? Look?
ing at the persecutions of the negroes
in the unreconstructed Sta*.e of Ken?
tucky, and at the proscriptions nnd
prosecutions against rebels in the
J only half reconstructed ?State of Ten?
nessee, we think tho ten excluded
States have reason to bo thankful that
they aro under the powerful protec?
tion of Congress and tho army of the
United States, and absolutely under
their control. It is only by the mili?
tary governments, too, of the five
Southern districts that tho States em?
braced therein can bo saved from that
conflict of races which is now fore?
shadowed in the political organiza?
tions of their whites and blacks
against each other. The military
commanders over these districts, with
their ampio discretion and means for
enforcing law and order, will be able
to maintain thc ponce in suppressing
all disturbers, whites or blacks, until
the people of both races, in every
State concerned, aro brought to that
degree of harmony which will justify
the full restoration of their State au?
thorities.
For. A CONVENTION.-The Carolina
Spartan closes au editorial with the
following paragraph :
"Wert; wo all united ill favor of a
convention-were we nil to go to the
ballot-box, accompanied bj those
over whom we had previously exer?
cised a laudable and just persuasion,
and being also faithfully supported
by the outside exertions of our ho?
nored, but disfranchised citizens
such tuen could be elected to a con?
vention as would fulfill tho require?
ments of the .Congressional Acts and
restore peace to tho country. In or?
dinary times, wo might stop to con
rnilt our dignity and the finer feelings
of our nature, but this is a timo of
great peril to our wives and our chil?
dren, and if we stand aloof now and
suffer the negroes and their coadju?
tors to organize a government for the
State, wo commit tho fate of those
wo lovo most in this world into the
hands of an ignorant people, led on
by the brutal passions of bad white
men. Impressed with the magnitude
of coming events-portentous, in?
deed, of great suffering and trouble
wo again call our readers to a timely
aud serious reflection on tho eonse
?nonces of indifference or apathy,
t appears to us that not to voto at till
is equivalent to voting against the
South."
CONTRAIUES.-Pooplo say they shell
peas when they unshell them; that
they husk corn when they unhusk
it; that thoy dust furniture when
they nndnst it, or take dust froni it;
that they skin a calf when they un
skin it; and that they scale fishes
when they unscale them. Many men
say that they are going to weed their
gardens, whon their gardens are
weedy enongh already.

PHLEBOTOMY-When Dr. Sangrado
found his patieuta weak, he gave them
wator gruel. When tbey got weaker, ho
bled them and dosed them with calomel
and jalap. Oil BIUB tells us they almost
invariably died. A good many pcoplo aro
killod that way yet. Tho world in general,
however, ht? found out that, in oases of
debility and prematuro decay, HOSTET
TEIt'S STOMACH BITTERS is tho truo
life-sustaining cordial. Thi6 tonic is a
powerful and perfectly harmless restora?
tive. Rut it docs moro than invigorate-it
regulates and purifies. While it builds up
tho strongth and infuses vitality into the
blood, it brings all tho secretions into har?
mony with tho laws of health. The feoblor
Rex find it invaluablo in tho various physi?
cal difficulties to which their organization
renders thom subject. In all hysterical
and hypochondrical cases its effect is ma?
gical. The infirmities of ago aro alle?
viated by its usc; and where the circula?
tion is torpid, and there is a tendency to
paralysis, HOSTETTER'S BITTERS aro
recommended as a means of re-invigorat?
ing tho system and prolonging life.
At this season of tlie year particularly,
when mid-summer's scorchiug heat does
so much towards reducing thc vital ener?
gies of thc body, this inestimable tonic
and stomachic produces a wonderful effect.
By it the strength is increased, tho appe?

H'DQT'ARTERS, 4m MILITANT DlST.,
(Mississivn AND ARKANSAS,)
VICKSBURG, Miss., May 13, 1867.
I am glad to seo that tho attention of thc
gentle and humano ladies of tho North is
being turned towards tho sad and dosolato
condition of thia onco happy land.
You, Madam, surrounded with thoplenty
and comforts of a woalthy city, can scarcely
appreciate tho fact that, in many parts of
tho South, whole cuiuuiuuilies ruo, by u
failuro in crops' and tho absence of money
or its equivalen!., lei'!: ra want of tho neces?
saries oi life; aud that poor women, with
largo families of helpless children, so ac?
customed to (Upend on tho labor of others,
that now, with no husband, brother or
servant to help, and no money, they do not
know what to do or whero togo for food;
but aro left in tho sohtudos of these South?
ern forests, in raga and gaunt with hunger,
subsisting on what the mother or lurger
children can shoot or pick un in tho wood,
or on what thc low neighbors, nearly as
poor as they aro, can bring them.
Officers of my acquaintance have met
with such mothers, long alter dark, ont in
the wood?, with un old gun just fired, and
tlie coon or possum just killed; have gone
homo with them and met tho group of littlo
starvelings waiting patiently mother's re?
turn with some of the only sort of food
they had tasted for weeks; and women and
children have been found within sixty miles
of tho capital of a Southern State, during
tho past year, who had starved to death in
thoir louesomo cabins. These cuses of
^rcat distress aro rare in Southern cities,
for there, even the most delicately bred can
generally find soino work which they can
do to keep thc wolf from the door: but tho
fa rain or. plantation- in tho South aro pe?
culiarly secluded, with miles of forest or
swamp" between them, poor roads, and thc
stock and animals nearly all taken by tho
war, the famine, tho lloods, or tho thieves,
who in such times infest a country, and the
distressed families are often, by the time
necessity makes them want to leave, too
sick to travel on foot, and there is no other
way to go.
Y'oin propose* .e. ainment, Madam,
should it produce " funds enough to re?
lievo a small tract of tho destitution of
this corni try, will bo a good beginning, and
maybe followed in other cities North by
similar appeals to people who have happily
never felt thc desolation and tho horrors
which follow in tho tracks of great armies
of invasion. God speed your society in tho
good work, ia the wish ol'. Madam, yours
truly, E. 0. C. ORD,
Breve' Major-General.

Mrs. JIarlotce Matin r-MY DEAR MADAM:
I shall be too glad if anything I can Bay
will aid tho society in its nobio work. ?
large proportion of the people of the South
have suffered and many are still suffering
almost to thc limit of endurance from the
devastation of war and mibsequent failure
of crops. They arc making every possible
exertion to revive their various branches
of industry and become self-supporting.
The liberal u^istaiiCc which thc Northern
people aro well able to give, will relieve :i
great amount of distress, and will no doubt
be sufficient to place the poor of the Routh
beyond further Buffering for food. Tho
recent manifestations of an alaiost un or
sal desire throughout the South fora rt Uv ?
fraternal re-union with tho North, may wAl
Herve to stimulate the generous sympathies
of tho Xorthcrnpeonle, while nothing could
do more to foster ?md encourage tho growth
ol' a healthy gentiment in the South than
tho generous aid which it ia the mission of
your nociety to invoke. I sincerely hope
the noble efforts of the society may result
in t!ie most abundant success." 1 tun, dear
Madam, very respectfully, vour obcdionl :

HINDQUARTERS, SECOND MILITARY DIVISION,

The excellent purpose yon have in view
cannot be too much commended. Tho lib?
erality of the Government of the United
States, and the munificent contributions
already made for thu relief of thc wide?
spread destitution in the States, leaves
great numbers unprovided with food and
clothing. And until au abundant harvest
enables the people bern to do more for
themselves, I trust the over gent rous and
prosperous committees of the North will ,
continuo their noble gifts to this imp ivor- j
ished and afflicted population. With my I
best wishes for tho success of your under
taking, I remain, .Madam, verv respectful?

and unhappy people, bnt to express to you
in their behalt, that gratitudo which is so
eminently your due for tho generous sym

thoao among us in distress. Wishing yon

GREENSBORO, May 14, 1867.
Have just returned from a tour through
the section made memorable by "Sher?
man's march to. tho ?eaboard." Poverty,
suffering and destitution of tho people can
scarcely he realized-living in huts, rudely
constructed of charred boards, of rails,
boughs and mud, you are met by uollow
eyed, emaciated forms, whoso first words
aro "bread"-for something to stifle tho
cravings of hunger. In cue place, I wit?
nessed tho bodv of a child borne to its last
rest, on aboard, in tho same raes in which
it died. In another, four females existed
for a week on two pounds of conj, together
with some roots. On tho road, I met an
othor who had walked twelve miles to beg
some food for her children. Many other
instances can bo given of sad suffering
from actual want of food. Verv truly,

nors of tho blood, which annoyed mo very
mich. I am entirely cured. 1 think your
nedicine a valuable one."
A remarkable case of liver complaint and
wallache cured bv tho use of "Hoinitsh's
Queen's Delight:" A lady of unquestioned
vorth and reputation.nluntarily gives tes
imony of the wonderful effects of this
nedicine. She has been from early years
1 martyr to headaches, caused by impor
ect action of the liver, producing intenso
?eadache and pain over tho eyes. She has
aken onlv four bottles, and assures us of
ho perfect cure it has made. She now on
ovH good health.
Still another: "During laet spring, I had
icon troubled with obstinate chills and
over, which, when cured, left my system
n a wrotcbed condition, blood impuro, and
[ was afflicted with an angry, and, as I at
?ne time thought, an incurable, cutaneous
.rnption over my ontiro body. The most
.??.lieut remedies suggested failed to work
i cure, until, at tho instance of a friend, I
.ried Dr. Hoinitsh's Queen's Delight. Less
.han two bottles cured me, leaving my skin
n a hoalthy condition. My general health
a as good as over. For such purposes. I
?ave, ever since my euro, unhesitatingly
?ocommended your Queen's Delight."
