J. A. OKA CLAItKBV IL IU Friday, July 19th, 186L FOR GOVERNOR. ISI1AM G. HARRIS.

gtt. It ought to be a source of universal reret that, there is a contest for the Gubernatorial Chair, nt all, and much more' that the rivulrv im callintr forth ho m.mvl manifestations of the heated partizanship of other daya. Could wo sec in the history of Col. Polk "satisfactory assurances of superior, intellectual capacity, and of an integrity proof against the temptations of favoritism and past political affinities did we believe him as conversant as Gov. Harris with the progress of the revolution and better qualified to direct the complex movements so essential to ultimate success, we would urge his election a public necessity.

But possessing no such assurances, we are disinclined to an experiment attended with imminent hazards and, holding out no reliable promise of a change for tbe better. And superadded to these reasons why tho present incumbent should not be superceded by bis only competitor, we insist thnt nothing can bo mrre detrimental to tho public interests, at this juncture, than the want of harmony consequent upon the contest between rival parties. It is truo the friends of Col. PoTk arguo that harmony can only bo secured by the defeat of Gov. Harris, and that his'success will effectually alienate East force of such logic wc can not appreciate, nor can wo Suppose that tbe people of that end of tbe State possess so little manliness of spirit and purpose as to suffer their policy to be determined by so trivial, a circumstance ns the electiou of this or that man.

The ground of their discontent is devotion to the old Union preference for the nbolitionizcd government at Washington, over a union with tho Confederate States; and do the friends of Col. Polk proposo to conciliate them by holding mt tho 'idea that his electiou promises a re-construction of the Union If this is not the idea, why harp upon the Union majority of February? If this is not the idea, how else can the election of Col. Polk conciliate East Tennessee? Oh, he is popular there, and Gov. Harris is not! This jnav be true; but if the determination of East Tennessee to resist tho will of the majority is based upon principle, it matters not to the people of that section who may be elected Governor, whilst it is of vital importance to Middlo and West Tennessee that they look to their own intorests. East Tennessee voted upon the question of separation, and, iu doing so, bound itself, in honor to submit to the docision of tho ma jority but that decision being adverse to.

its wishes, the implied plodgo of honor is violated, and now the balanco of tho State is called upon to reward such runic faith by seeking moans of conciliation instead of looking to tho great interests involved in the struggle for independence. 1 1 11 11 .1 111 tne election 01 mi, rom carry mo 1. 1 1 .1 it ,1 iaiu 01 icunessee uat'K into ine onnenii Union?

Harris is said to be to the Breckinridge wing.

It is hard to learn old political hacks new tricks, end as Ion? ns tho neonle nlace them in nowor the evil effects of pnrtican feelings will I manifest themselves in an increaso of corruption and a decrease of pnblie virtue. It is charged that Gov. Harris has violated the Constitution by the appointment of members of the Legislature to military offices. Whether or not the Constitution conlcroPlatC(1 'uch rP'nt'nenU in the meaning attempted to be given to its pro visions, we aro not lawyer enough to determine, and shall adjourn it asan open Ques tion until the Courts have netd non it townsman, O. W.

Herring, It will be interesting to If everything charged acainst Gov. Harris many of our readers. His name ts inis-fpelt, which be truo, it detracts, to the extent of BUrnrisine as the Abolitionists' do nothing evil done, from his wisdom and efficiency as Chief Magistrate, but, unfortunately, it does not, in theslightest degree, strengthen Col. Polk's claims and until it is proven that he would have done better, under the i. same circumstances, and that ho has the i ability to remedy past errors and to admin- ister tl noornmpnf fnr tbo mr istertliegONernment, for the future, more wisely than Oov.

Harris can do it, the peo- lo rv ui icuucwuu in not couseui. to 1 change. It is far from our intentiou to de- tract from the merits of Col. Polk. We are willing to concede that he is fully the equal of Gov.

Harris iu everything save fa-1 i i i milianty with the details of the revolution iu Tennessee, and our opposition to him justified the assassination of Col. Ellsworth, as I 'understand at the time he was about to kill Mr. turns upon this single point. I Earnest, some days since, what language can be a. found in the wholo compass of tbe English tongue i adequate to porlrav the hellish, malignity of his I ho Louisville Journal professes to heart, and the unfathomable depravity of his na- know that the Regiment which left this ture- who l-oulJ have supposed that any being in Ti human shape, breathing the free air of tho North, place-last week has gone to Enst Tennes- anj claiming to be American citizen, would utter see, and his sympathies are aroused in be-1 such diabolical sentiment, as that attribute-! to (this man.

For the credit of our aperies, I could half of that section about to be overrun by luis certificate to be false. But who is this an armed force. If the Regiment has gone A Southern man lately from tho State i of Tennessee, and now a resident of this place: and to East Tennessee, no one here knows it, 'gtm i8 tocnrry oa tha Mercan. and the Colonel himself did not know the tile business, and thus makes his living off of a i i i i p. i people, hose sentiments and feelings he would so point of destination when be left here, ttntouly Ilnd 60 outraae I.

Its peoplo were willing to go with Andy Johnson against separation, but since he has cone beyond that point and committed treasoiivinst ft I tho State, few can bo found wiWflg to sliare nis guilt. One of the arguments in favor of Col. Polk is, that ho can conciliate East Tennessee, nnd as a proof of the fallacy of the assumption, tho people of that section nominated a candidate of their own, It is truo that the nominee declined the honor, but the fact remains to controvert tbe argument and to prove that the emoliont, so kindly administered, failed to allay the irritation.

Forty-five men, of Col. Bendix's regiment, yesterday Btrollcd from Newport News wit out leave, and were surprised a few miles from the camp by a large body of the Confederates, foot and horse. One of them, at least, was known to have been killed, and several wounded. A considerable number of thera fell into the hands of the rebels. On the return of those who escaped, seven companies of the seventh regiment were sent out, but they have not yet been heard from.

The third and fourth Massachusetts regiments, whose three months' time is up, leave for Boston at once. Brigadier Gen. Pierce will return home. A COMM.IMBNT FROM AS USKIl'KiTTKD Socrce. A writer to the Philadelphia North American says: The chief rebels are desperate and determined men, endowed with sujierior talents and furnished with many resources.

It is now with thera, a question of life or death, honor or dishonor, glory or infamy. Those who are involved in this treason, by taking up arras for them, are in the same desperate condition. And the South is full of brave and self sacrficiug men. In all emergencies, when the flag of out common country called for detonders, they have shown an alacrity and courage iu reponse not to be Mirjiiisseo. in a guq rouse iney maae puissaoL cohorts.

Let the Government and the Northern States then, be prepared fur a desperate conflict. A letter from Richmond to the New York Timet says that the JlritUh fleet have engaged all the coal 1 that can be obtained in Cuba; which the writer takes as very unkind, as it will render tho Yankee ship3 of little value iu the Gulf, and put an end to the blockade, until coal can be got elsewhere. The writer also says, the arrival of the English Fleet will withdraw most of the Yankee ships from Port Pickens their presence being necessary all along the coast. We infer from the letter, that the blockade in the Gulf will prove a failure. Tenvpssei Powder.
