You are now to solve a question of the greatest moment; nd it Tbe hooves you ta arouse jevery racmty, that you may calmly ana idelloer ately survey the whole domain and act with justice, wisdom and patriotism. To my mind the matter preeents but two One the unification of the Democratic party on the majority platform, wnicti means its success followed oy destroying the present settlement, and dragging the question oacE to divide us again, and the other, the preservation of the present settle ment: ana tne vmaicauon or tne Democratic party by the minority action, as lor tne first. 1 am frank: to say that the party merits, nothing but defeat on such a platform and it would be a calamity to the State for such principles jto be ra ti nea oy success, ine pea ner men spone oi tne ruin which the party must suffer by division or sacrifice of principles. and of the good results which must. follow if the present settlement was sustained.

lie spoke at length on this subject, and closed with an earnest appeal for the honor and credit of the State. Mr. Dickinson then said the con vention was ready for business, Hon. Spiral Hill nominated Hon. John V.

Wright as lemporary Chairman. Rhodes, of Montgomery, Bullock, of Madison, and Latta, of Dyer. were appointed to escort Judge Wright to the chair, who was re ceived by great and continued ap plause as he walked up the aisle md took the stand. He was introduced by Mr. Dickinson a3 the gallant standard-bearer of Democra cy in 1880.

Judge Wright made the follow ing stirring speech Gentlemen and Delegates of the Democrat ic convention oi ine Biaie oi lenueasos I address you thus, because know by looking into your faces that you come here for the purpose of purifying and vindicating the principles of the Democratic party. If there is any Democratic party in Tenuew.1 tliMSe are its representa tives. (Applause.) If any man disputes this proposition, ask him whether he belonged to the Demo cratic nrty whieii I have served so long, or to the old Whig party, whether either ofll.eeoltl parties ever favored repudiation. (Applause.) 1 kiinw not, gentlemen, why you have dime me this, the greatest hior ol my life, unless it be that two years ago you gave me the Democratic banner to uphold and defend, and which 1 brought back unscathed for you to again send forth to victory. It is useless for me to say more to you.

We have at last got to "harmony." (Applause.) Gentlemen, there are one or two propositions which are That we owe somebody or we do not. ll we owe, we ought to pay. If wo owe a debt let us be like men and strive to pay it; it we do not owoit, let us stand up like honest men and deny it. Those who allege fraud mu-t prove it. Now, gentlemen, we have come together You are here for the purpose of acting in harmony.

The highest duty of Tennessee statesmen is to be right. So, gentlemen, let us go forward to victory. We can do it. Whether victory or deleat awaits us we will stand by the old party and its principles to the end. But victory is just as certain to pereh upon our banner as Tennessee is to be a prosperous State.

If it does not the examples set us by our statesmen of the past will count for nothing. Unless we can stand before the world and show that we are an honest eople, we have fought the fight of our glorious o-d party to but little purpose. It now becomes my duty to call the convention to order, which I now do. Mr. Rhodes nominated, F.

Gen. Bate is my personal friend. Wo were in Mexico together. We were in the late unpleasantness together. I like the man, but I cannot support him on his platform.

NIGHT SESSION. Campbell Brown, chairman ol the committee on platform announced that they were ready to submit a ilal form on which tho committee had agreed unanimously. Follow ing is the platform, which was re ceived with much enthusiasm and prolonged applause: FLATFOKM OF 1882T-. We the Democratic party of Tsunoasoo in convention assembled do declare, First That we are unalterably opposed to the repudiation of any of our State or National obligations, and are in furor of maintaining inviolate the public faita. Second That we recognise the reeent settlement of the State debt made by the present Legislature as in accord with the platform of the Democratic party of 1SS0, both Sate and National, and as just and honorable both to the peo ple ana tne cretin ors oi tne and oe-clare that it should not be disturbed or read justed.

rnira mat we are opposed co an ciass legislation and partial laws, and to all laws, the tendency of which is to impair the obligation of coulraeia. Fourth We are in favor of a liberal system of public schools, so that every child In Teunessee may have a good common school education. And recognizing the good ef fects ot what is Known as the -lour mile law," by which the number of schools has beeu increased and crime and rice diminished, we are opposed to its repeal. inn wo iavora policy max win compel railroad corporations, as well as all other corporations and individuals in tne State of Tennessee, Dear tueir equal part of tne burden of taxation. Sixth We favor the establishment of a railroad commission, to regulate Trieghts and tariffs so as to prevent unjust discrimination, with such powers as shall protect the rights of both the people and tho railroads.

Bcveuiu no are opposeu a ujiuuiu tional Contention at this time, believing hat the necessities for such a convention do not Justify the danger of opening the or ganic law to amendment, in uiese times oi unsettled political opinion. Eighth We arraign the Republican party for its reckless extravagance with public funds the Issuance of subsidies to the favored few; the disregard of the organic and fundamental law tn mud ns set forth in the Constitution, and for its growing and iiicreasiUK advance to centralization for its system of protection to the strong corpora tions, thereby imposing addittObal burdens upon the laborer, producer and mechanic. On motion ot Judge no. V. Wright the platform as a whole was adopted without a dissenting voice.

Judge Wright said that was the only real harmony ho had seen for many days, that the resolutions were in accordance with liberty, in accordance with truth, in accord ance with justice, in accordance with temperance. Prolonged applause. We have reached the point when no one need be ashamed to look an honest man in the face. You are bound to succeed. The world will stand by you, tie.

honest people of the State will stand by you and God will stand by you. Applause. Loud calls were made for Col. Bailey, who addressed the Convention as follows Gentlompn ot the Convention--How can I speak, to you to-night? How can I reach to that pitcn of er.thusiara which seems to stir the heart of every man in thig convention? The resolutions speak to you. They appeal to the sober thought and reason of every thinking man in Tonnessoe.

Those resolutions were received lr. such a spirit here to-night as to encourage the thought that they will be received by honest men and women in this State in the same way. There is no appeal to passion-or prejudice. In the month of November there will be such a vote and such a voice as shall declare that in the future we shall hear no more of repudiation and readjusterism In Tennessee. We may not succeed in electing Our candidate for Governor, but we will succeed with the people In Tennessee.

A majority of the people of Tennessee will be with us. It will not te four years betore State-credit and Low-tax will declare there shall be no talk of repudiation. I look to the future for a vindication of this day's work. I may not live to see it, but many of you will live to see it. I have been told that this is a young man's movement.

I am glad to see the young Democracy take the lead. We' old men must lag behind. You young men have tho future before you. In a little while we gray-haired men shall pass away. The young Democracy is worthy to carry the banner of Tennessee, and will keep bright the escutcheon of him whoso portrait adorns the walls of this hill.

It i3 your duty to preserve It as he handed it down to you. I would have you make Tennessee the equal of cither of the S8 States of this Union. I would have Ten-nossee foremost in intelligence, in virtue, in temperance and in education. I would have the grog-shops banish away fjrever. I believe we are right.

Coutrastlhe resolutions of to-uight those adopted some days ago. rue une platform was an agreement to rob every creditor of the State. They undertake to divide the possessions of every man in the State. I have witnessed your deliberations here to-day, and nave watched with pleasure the decency and order of your Gen. Luke E.

Wright was called on. He said; "Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of 1 the Convention The work done here to-night boars the stamp-of unmistakable excellence. Whatever may be said of it, it can never be said that it gives forth any uncertain sound. As virtue is to woman, the maintenance of public faith is to the state and Iter citizens.

There can be no doubt as to the result. State-credit Democracy will win, it must win. The stigma of repudiation wil never stain the escutcheon of The June platform is a pit-fail and a snare, and we are called moo to place oar feet upon such a platform. It is a miserable failure. Now ia the time, now to the hour, when we must settle this vexed question.

The baby of repudiation of six years ago Is it to lii a 4 mm as men or we retreat from him in our disgrace? Let us meet aud we will whip it if not now in two years from now, in four years; if not in rour years, in mx, and -so on the cracktof if lux-ensary. ui proud to feel-t but I there are Defiiocrats in Tennessee who will never quit the forefront nf the flgftt until they have won. Applause. 4 Ilort. 1 A.

James was called on lie convention; in peculiar, Inimitable style, bringing down the house every time. We have seen no. reiort of his Spteeh that does the subject justice, and will not attempt ourselt in our limited space. Col. Thos.

Claiborne said he had few words to say to the gentlemen who had gone off after the oth- ceivtsi ny tiH foulest platform that whs ever adopted. They were like hint stmeb ou the mountain aide. He believed he knew the candidate 1 (Gen. Bate), and he believed if the pUtfonu Jujst adopted was offered to inui -trial and many others on that side would accept-lt; If he would not accept it he would be beaten in November, for he did not believe he' would get 10,000 votes. Offer it to him and to them, and If they refused the State-credit De mocracy could turn away from them.

He said the convention couia count eo him, and that he would be fori the and idate they nominated, no matter who he was. It was moved that the convention into the nomination tor Gov- ernor, Gen. Luke B. Wright-nomi nated Joseph II. Fussell.

james lniroaucea tne nominee to the convention. He spoke as follows. "Gentlemen of the Convention, fellow citizens of the State of Tennessee: stand in my political cradle. The first step I have ever taken in pilitics in my life is the step I have taken tonight. I have wondered why this vast people should select me for their standard bearer in this conflict.

I came to Nashville this afternoon and expected to return to-night. I have been captured. I am a prisoner, but thank God there are no fetters upon my arms. I am a prisoner in the camp of my friends. I stand prisoner under the banner that bears upon it truth and equal Island under the banner which says to me to know none above another.

If there is to be any sacrifice I am as willing to bear it as any man in the State. Why do I stand upon the- platform adopted here to-night? Because it is right. I can stand upon it and float the banner of truth and justice over every man, woman and child in Tennessee. I stand upon that platform because I have lived upon it and expect to die upon it. If you will rally to the colors wo will win with that banner.

You have se lected one of the hu molest c'tizens of the State to bear it, but you have selected one who, if lie knows toe right, will do it. Gentlemen and fellow citizens: I thank you for the high honor that you have conferred upon me. If defeat is conferred upon me, you have placed the highest honor that you could have upon me. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for this honor, and you will never be ashamed of your banner as long as Joe Fussell bears it. THE NOMINEE.

Joseph II. Fussell, the nominee, of the State Credit Democratic party, is eminently a self-made man. Iiis parents were poor, but honest and upright people, his father being a carpenters During his boyhood lie helped his father work at this trade, and in this way contributed to the support and education of himself and sisters. During his school days and even after he entered college, and during the vacations he worked at the carpenter's bench. He Is a man of culture, education and refinement.

He graduated at Jackson College, located in Columbia, in Ihe year 1859, in the last class graduated in that old aud celebrated institution of learning that furnished so many illustrious meir to the State. He read law under the distinguished citizen and lawyer, Colonel A. Al Looney, of Columbia, and was licensed to practice law in the fall of 18G0. When the tocsin ol war sounded throughout the South, true to his convictions of duty, he enlisted as a private in Captain Hamilton's company, Second battalion of Tennessee cavalry, C. S.

A. served as a private until -the reorganisation la Mississippi the year following, when he was elected second lieutenant of the company, andafterward commanded the company, and was in command of the company at the surrender of the ConJedertUj armies. He returned after the surren der and engaged in the vocations ot peace, ooing an in-nw power to build up the waste working at his old trade of carpenter. In March, 18G6, he entered upon the practice or" his profession, the law, in the town of Columbia and continued in the practice until he was elected Attorney-General for that judicial circuit in the year 1875, and was re-elected to the same po sition in 187, which position he now holds, and is regarded by the bar of his circuit as one of the ablest in the State. He is an honorable, high-toned.

Christian gentleman one of the leading members of his church, and enjoys in an eminent degree the confidence and respect of all classes in society, lie is a man of firm conviction, and nothing can make him 8werve one hair's breadth from what he believes to be right. He is a strong advocate of temperance and morality in all its phases. He always has been a strongadvo-cate of State-credit because he is convinced that it is right and honest. He has never had any political position, and has never aspired to any. His nomination is his first appearance on the political stage lie is a man above- reproach both in his privatenritj public life; He is a man of whom the State Credit Democracy need have no fears.

He is a man around whose banner the young Democracy of the State can rally with the assurance they will never, can never he ashamed. He is a Masop and Knight Templar and was elected by the Grand Cora-raandery of the State in 1880, Rt. 'Em, Grand Commander, and served in that capacity with credit to him- sell aud saustacuon to ine order. The Democratic party of Tennessee signalized its return to power ia the1 8tate after a disastrous war by establishing a platform which declared in clear and unequivocal tlement of the just obligations of foe; Ia. it.

A Pleasant Dancing Party.

One of those pleasant, Informal little affairs that serve so becom ingly to break the monotony of these long dull summer evenings and make Hie more agreeable, was the impromptu soiree dansanU got ten up byai few young beaux around town, and which came off last Tuesday evening at the commodi ous mansion of Mrs. Lucy Smith at "Riverside." There were only ten or twelve couples present, just enough to form two good single or one double set without crowding ine aancing nan, ana it appearances go for aught, every fair belle and trallant bean present entered into the spirit and pleasure of the occasion with whole-souled eniov ment. Quadrilles, waltzes, gallops, the racqoette andseveral- other dances, displaying the enrapturing poetry of motion ou "the light fantastic," but Which jue unknown to the vocabulary of this reportorial Jenkins, were participated in until the "wee sma hours ayont the twal." The dance, to come down to plain English, was a very pleas ant one, and society here would be all the more delightful if the young people could have them more fre quent. Among the charming young la aies irom a distance who were present, and most of whom were debutantes, ihevteporter cnpdd: JQssesMiry Mae Burnett, Cadiz, Cammie Martin, Hopkinsviile. Miss Sanders, Memphis.

Misses Emma Mai Benson, Nashville; Bessie Vance, Memphis, and others. One of the best planks that was ever inserted in any is what is called the temperance plank in the State Credit Democratic platform, which was adopted at Nashville on Tuesday. It was a good, wise and patriotic action on the part of those who are not only struggling to preserve the financial honor and credit of lofeif State, but also desire to protect the moral and physical welfare of its citizens. This plank simply opposes the repeal of the "four mile law," 1 Every father and mother fit the State should do all they can to sustain this law which has 'done so much to protect the moral character of their sons and promote the general happiness and prosperity of the State. Temperance people should rally to the support of tho State Credit Democratic platform.

HONORABLE JOHN WRIGHT CHOSEN AS TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN AND GEN. 8.F. CHEATHAM AS PERM A- NEXT CHAIRMAN. The large body of brave, resolute, intelligent, highly respectable men who gathered at the Capitol Tuesday, was a grand exhibit oT the true Democracy of Tennessee, and must have been a sad rebuke to those whoso passions and prejudices have fed them to speak contemptuously of Its probable numbers and signiti-cance In shaping the affairs of the State. It was made up of between six and seven hundred determined.

honest, honorable men who hold principle and the future weal of their State far above personal aims and party expediency. We give below a full report of tho proceedings, which cannot fail to convince all who read them of the firmness and honesty of purpose that actuates the State Credit Dem ocracy of Tennessee. They are promoted and sustained their gallant fight against repudiation and dishonor by the glorious con sciousness of right and justice against which the heresies and false doctrines of the Readjuater platform cannot stand At 12:15 the convention was call ed to order by Horii J. M. Dickin son, Chairman of the State Credit Democratic party, who spoke as follows Gentlemen of the Convention In 1880 the Democratic party of the State of Tennessee, in conven tion assembled, grappled -with the erreat question of our State debt.

which portended an Irrepressible conflict within tho party, and that, too, even in the very midst of the greater struggle for national supremacy, in which the Impending loss of Tennessee to the Democracy seemed to foreshadow its defeat. At that erteis, keenly alive to the magnitude of the question, and the relations which its so lution bore to trie great National contest, the Democratic party, after full consideration, solemnly impressed with the calamity ol threat ened disruption, conceded all for expediency, which was not subver sive of its time nonoreu principles, and by an overwhelming majority proclaimed as its ultimatim, that it re-atlirm lis acknowledgment of its public debt and its purjose sustaining the same, on the best terms that could be obtained from the credit ors, by negotiations. The minority withdrew and formulated! their op position in the declaration that the State did not owe the larger portion of its bunded debt aid demanded submission of the whole to the peo ple, accrediting uoln slues witn sin eeritv in their declarations. The separation was a logical sequence and its permanency only bounded by an elimination of the question from politics or a total surrender by one or the other or its convictions solemnly avowed and promulgnted lKMoro tne world. I'he two parties stood shoulder to shoulder and formed a solid phal anx in the support of the National Democracy, but in the State contest they moved on each other, and went down in the struggle, meeting not only defeat and disappointment, but humiliated by Republi can victory and triumph, made possible only by their internal strife.

Chastened by deleat, schooled ny adversity to appreciate tho necessity of union, but inspired with a zeal that overleaped all barriers, and with a fortuity that ignored the antagonism of elements and contemplated moral convictions as mere opposintr opinions ot expedi ency and as easily reconciled, there Were those who unaertooK me mighty work of unifying'the Democratic party upon this issue. in tne meantime, ine legislature of Tennessee had passed a law pro viding for the settlement of the State debt at 00 per cent, of the principal and nt 3, 4, 5 amUi of in terest, the settlement tirst having been agreed to oy a large represent ative portion ot our creditors, ihe merits of that settlement as an orig inal measure are foreign to the present issue. Many of us under the then existing circumstances opposed the enactment of the law. But it is a law legally and constitutionally made and its maintenance and not its enactment is alone now Involved. The June convention was called by the chairmen of tiie respective wings for the purpose of unifying the party if possible.

We all know how that convention was worked up, and the hopes and ambitions concentrating in it to which the most rapturous music ever discoursed, were the seductive strains of the llarmonicon. The ppeaker continued in this strain in language beautiful and eloquent. He further said When the convention met, headed by its master singers, proceeded to compose a medley of discordant notes, which, by the skillful performer, could be sung to a State Credit or a repudiation audience, as the occa sion might demand. The overture gave the key-note to the whole performance, with an arrogance equaled only by the magnificent assumptions of Eastern potentates. This platform makes such a distinction, and one class proposes to scale 00 per cent, of the principal.

It is couched in the form of a tender, but means, and will be construed by the civilized world as a declaration that no more will be paid. By all the teachings and principles of the Democratic party, this is practical repudiation. The trreat heart of the people of the State vearned for the settlement of this vexed question. A thing of evil omen like the fabled Albatross it has hung about the neck or the Democratic party, a curse im-oending into a sea of corruption. Manv wearv and disgusted by the strife of the last few years, wanted the dead body buried out of sight, and 8eeinp; that a forcible adjust ment had become inevitable under a united Democracy, felt "If it were done, when 'tis done, then 'twere well It wore done quickly." He knew that a forced settle ment, though bringing dishonor, would bo less injurious to the State than a new period of strife, with possible straight out and unquali fied repudiation.

Many impressed with this view, though utterly opposed, would have mndeany organized resistance to a measure assuring a settlement. This platform is a blunder or a crafty contrivance. In either aspect it can only serve to defeat the settlement of the present Legisla ture and drive the debt question back into the political arena. The Demo cratic party, if united, would stand where it did two years ago. Every well Informed man knows the cred itors holding the scaled bonds will indignantly refuse the offer and the settlement.

Apart from the odious feature of scaling, the absolute failure to guarantee a final removal of the strife breeding question, there are other features, which though of minor importance are componenU of thia political abortion. A number of delegates to (hat convention protested against the action of that convention, reaffirmed the platform of 1880, and declared their inten- irvi I will mnii th rJA to patiox 1 pau-ouiie aa.

True De mocracy stands now Where it stood then, and we are in honor bound to sustain a settlement made in exact accordance with oar party declarations of 1S80. strkl3 pledged to reverse this policy and to defeat and readjust this seUle- ment.uTo support him is to support his avowed policies and principles The candidate cannot be from his principles and his policies Ail who aie In favor of his uieas ures, and in favor of reopening this debt question will support him, all whei are against his measures and deem the credit and honor of the, State paramount to any of the other issues involved in this election will vote aeainst him. Uis defeat is already assured the only hope of defeating Hawkins lies in rallying to the support of Fussell. May we not hope that State Credit Democrats who have been misled and have wandered off to tho camp of Low Tax Readjusters will now find It.

their conscientious duty to return to their colors and vote for a man who represents their principles. From observations made at the late convention, we are of opinion that the defection from the ranks of the State Credit Democracy to the Readjustees, ihave been greater hi this county and Stewart, than in other parts of the State in proportion to our original strength. We do not believe that this will long be the case. Montgomery county State Credit Democrats have too long held the front to now be deserting the cause, just when it is about to forever settle this question. We believe they will reconsider their action and stand by their brelheren who are unterrifled by the cry thftt4JIawkins will be elected, if you don't vote for Bate." Whose fault is it if he is elected Surely not ours.

If the High-Joint Convention chose to run after false gods, and to lower the standard at the demand of the low-tax bolters of wo years ago, they are respon sible for all the results. Their are victories more disastrous than defeats, and defeats more glorious than the most complete success, and we only deserve success when we seek it upon principle. There is a question of right and wrong in this matter tiiat lies nearer to good men than merely electing one man over another. If State Credit men believe that it is honest to keep faifli, they will not vote to disturb this pledged fnilh of our State contained in the GO 3-4 settlement. After ten years of agitation we have settled this question and pledged the honor of the State to the maintainance of the act.

If we believe tills question is paramount in importance to the election ot any one man. We will vote for no man who proposes to unsettle it. If we want it kept in politics as a running aore, we will vote for candidates who propose to reopen it. Let men choose as their conscience dictate and boldly vote their conclusions. The animus of the Courier-Journal on this State debt question is again shown by its dispensing willi the services of Col.

John M. its late talented and able correspondent Ironi Nashville, than whom no man in the State is better informed upon the vexnj subject and the substitution in his stead of a correspondent who garbles the the lacts and tills his letters with gross misrepresentations. Colonel lemming is a high-toned, honora ble gentleman and could not stoop to misstatements aud a prostitution of the truth, hence, in this case, he was not needed by the C-J. It is now thought that Congress will adjourn about the 20th inst. The people sincerely hope so, for these hot dog-days are evidently en gendering bad blood among the National Solons.

General Skobeleff. The cablegram, last week, brought the news of the sudden and entirely unexpecteu ueatn, at Moscow on Friday morning, the 7th of the celebrated Ilussiau General Skobeleff. He died very suddenly of heart disease. In his death lius sia loses her greatest general and diplomatist and by his uutimely taking off there is left a vacancy that nroOably no man now in the coufldenco of his Nation can supply. He was conceded to be one of the lirst men of Europe, an accomplish ed statesman, a patriot and a very learned gentleman.

He was a man of the most varied and marked abilities, zealous in tho service of his government and well-versed in all the Intricacies of the science of government. He was generally regarded as the most cultkired dip lomatist of the day by all the Courts of Europe and wherever he went, was received witli unusual marks of distinction aud respect. He was leloved by the Czar and the idol of the Hussian soldiery. A writer says of him Gen. Michael SkobeleiT was probably tho most popular man in Russia and the most picturesquo soldier in Europe.

In peace he excelled the swells of the kingdom in Ids fondness for tho luxuries of dress aud the daintiness of his tastes. In war he was the embodiment of bravery andjthe personification of reckless fury. Clad in a white uniform that glittered with gold braid, and mounted on a white horse, he led his men to victories snatched out of the very gulfs of death, aud it was said, of those he commanded that they idolized him, and seemed to prefer death at the heeds of his horse to victory under any other couimHdcr. He was of soldierly carriage, and fine physlnrue, blue-eyed, brown-haired, and fall bearded. His grandfather, father, and himself were all Generals and Chevaliers of St.

George, and valor got each one his title aud: honors. Michael was the youngest' Russian General. He was graduated from tho Military Academy In St. Peters-burjt ia 1863. and, without! serving In the Guards, he at once pitched Into battle in Turkestan at the head of a corps of Cossacks.

JOHNSON, Chairman of Oonvcnlion. THE DEMOCRATIC STATE VENTION. CREDIT CON- On the 11th of July the State Crodit Democratic Convention assembled in the Ilall of Representatives at Nashville, and their pro-ecodings are fully reported elsewhere. The convention was a grand success, looked at from any point of vioWo There were present fully six hundred delegates, and out of the ninety-six counties in the State ninety-onti were represented. The jyergomel of the convention wits remarkable, and it was common observation that it was by far the most intelligent body of men ever assembled in a Democratic Convention in Tennessee.

The temporary President was Gen. John V. "Wright, our eloquent Democratic candidate for Governor two years ago. The permanent President was that gallant and noble old soldier, Gen. Frank Cheatham.

Among those attendant upon its deliberations were, ex-Gov. J. D. l'orter, ex -Senator Henry Cooper, ex-Senator James E. Bailey, Gen.

Wm. II. Jackson, Gen. Luke E. Wright, Col.

Eb. James and a host of the leading men who have been fiLrhtiner the battle for Stale credit and State honor for so many years. The platform may be found elsewhere. It is sound and honest from the llrst to the last word. It is a clear, reigning declaration of honest Democratic principles, so plainly and tersely worded that no man can fail to understand, and no State Credit man to approve it.

We indorse every word and letter in It, and this is more than wo have been able to say of any platform adopted in twenty years. Tho enthusiasm of the convention was indescribable while it was being read, and upon the vote upon its adoption not one dissenting voice was raised. The lines of battle are now drawn and the Legislative settlement already made, and now in course of execution is the question at issue. Tho Stale Credit Demociacy have placed thcmselvti squarely and emphatically upon that settlement as fair, just and honorable, anil de mand that it shall not be read justed. The Low-tax Democracy, by tho platform of tho Conven tion, arc pledged to the repeal of that settlement, ami propose a plan of settlement, which while in the aggregate will require the State to ay as much its under the settle ment already made, yet so discriminates between the different classes of bonds us to give no hope of leading to a settlement, as is admitted by nearly all the supporters of Gen.

Hate. We call upon all who believe that Tenuesseo owes this debt and that common honesty requires payment, to rally to thesup- port of the settlement already made Let us have an end of this harrass- ing and ruinous question. The platform upon which Gen, Bate was placed defeated him, Teniiessoe contalus too many men who ate determined that this ques tiou shall be settled, to leave any doubt about his defeat. His own friends defeated him when they placed him upon a readjusting platform. The only hope of a settlement lies in sostaining that already made by the consent of our credit-ore, and.

the only hope of saving the Democratic party for future usefulness, lk In rallying to the support i of FosMell and the platlorm of the 11th of July. The essentials of a party consists. Ideas, principles, policies If these be absent the party gone and only a mob remains. When the Joint Convention abandoned the declarations of the Na- tional Democrat In of the fitrlct maintenance of public credit, "Thqhev ttleuicd jmd sensitive gentlenitau" Is the gentlemanly way the Franklin' Review and Journal had the grace to speak of the State Credimen.
