He is also the hero of one ot more newspaper
libel suits; and to this last circumstance more
perhaps than to anything alee, he owes bis
present notoriety. Associated with thorn are
qeite e number of looser lights, who entered
the late conspiracy to double their fortunes by
an insidious attack upon tho credit of the
Nation. The result is already known to the
peblio; how President Grant broke np the
hellish conspiracy by ordering tho sale of Gov
ernment gold; hew, like Mordeoui, tho ocn-
apiraiore were hanged npon the gibbet they
had erected for other*; and how they have
since aeweyed to divert attention from the
damning infamy of their own sets by soekinj
to Implicate the President end oortain of his
Cabinet Ministers in this shameless and disre
putable plot
The fads have oil boon laid before the pub-
lio. Every reador of the newspaper proas in
the United State* ia familiar with them; and
sioce the publication of Geu. Grant's lotteruo
men. North or South, outside of this iniqui
tous Wall street gold Ring, has been pre
pared to listen, with any degree of patience,
to those vile oalumuiee which would couple
the name of the President with a transaction
so foreign to hie nature, and which UU very
soul iuBtiuoUvely abhors. But, unscrupulous
and audacious to the last; smarting under
their defeat; chagrined si finding themselves
the victims of their own transparent villainy;
and, in a fit of desperation, such as is expe
rienced only by faileu gamblers, they have
actually invaded the sanctity of tho Prosident'i
family circle, and seek to implicate a pure-
minded and unsuspecting woman (whose very
u&me should be held sacred from profanation
even by men so abandoned to integrity),
their disreputable financial plots. Yea, oven
the name of Mrs. Grant has boeu associated
with that of Corbin—a weak, indiscreet, and
unfortunate, but withal doubtless an honest
man -all for the purpose of raising a dust
wherein to hide the lower depths of their own
infamy.
This last slander is in perfeot keeping with
the general character of the men who invent
ed and gave it publicity. It is quite needless
to say that no honest man, outaide of a Luna
tic Asylum, can be made to believo it.
needs no very serious refutation at our hands.
It is one of those diabolical fabrications tbat
should not be dignified even by a denial,
will fall still-born from its source; and will,
in tho end, tend only to increase the odium
of this infamous thieving Wall street gold
Bing.
Contempt is said to havo tho property of de
scending, but it can never reach certain New
York editors (such as he of tho Sun) who
have thus prostituted themselves to men like
Fisk and Gould. They may enjoy the wages
of their shame with impunity, since they have
placed themselves wholly beyond the recog
nition even of contumely; but if there bo any
thing which wonld justify measures looking
to the suppression of such public nuisances
as sometimes crop ont in the honored pro
fession of journalism, as practiced in this
eountry, the case under review is unquestion
ably one in point Such hellish libels upon
the personal character of the Chief Magistrate
of the nation, and such fiendish slan
ders directed at his private family
circle, arc without parallel in any civilized
oountry; and they are all the worse for
having been invented aud uttered in the per
sonal interests of men whose very names are
synonymous with every species of commercial
immorality and open thievery-wen (mankind
we beg pardon) who have publicly cut them
selves loose from all conventional restraint,
and who stand before the public in the atti
tude of unmasked villainy. As a Southern
journalist, and viewing this whole infamous
transaction from a Southern standpoint, we
can bat express the hope that no Southern
man, bo bis political faith what it may, will
ever so far forget his traditional character for
self-respect, or so far ignore his obligations to
his race as to countenanco even for a substan
tial consideration the efforts of these mad
dened and desperate gold gamblers to mitigate
their infamy by attacks npon the President’s
family circle. Greater villains than these
Wail street vagabonds and shoddy stock
gamblers never cat a throat or scuttled a ship;
and yet they have the audacity to assooiate

cally to produce such a glorious result.
Resolved, That while Judge Cooper would
not have been our cboioe, if we could have
had the selection, yet we are proud to believe
tbat he will work not to destroy any material
interests of Tennessee, but to build up and de
velop the resources of the same.
Resolved, That we view Andrew Johnson as
the common enemy of equal, rights, liberty,
progress, and true Republican institutions.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted.
Judge Butler being called upon, addressed

Long Lift,
Professor Faraday adopts Flourin’* theory
that the natural duration of man’s life is a
hundred years. This theory is founded on
observation of facts as periods in the time of
growth. It is thus stated: When onoe the
bones and epiphpsis ars united, tho body
r ws uo more, aud at twenty years this union
effected in man. In the camel it fakes
place at eight; in the horse at five, and in the
rabbit at one The natural termination of life
is five removes from tho several points. Men,
being twenty years ingrowing, lives five times
twenty, that is, ous hundred. Tho camel is
eight years growing, and he lives five times
eight, that is to say forty years; the horse is
flv* years in growing, and he lives twenty-fire
years, and so with other animals. The men
who does not die ot sickness, battle, bullets,
railroad accidents—earthquake* excepted—
lives o very where from eighty to ono hundred
years.
Providence has given to man a century of
life, but he does not attain it bec&nso ho in
herits diaesses, oats unwholesome fruits, give*
license to passions, and permits vexation to
disturb bin healthy cquipoe*. He does not
die; he kills himself. The learned professor
divides lifo into equal halves, growth and de
cline; and the halves iuto infancy, youth,
virilty and age. Infancy extends to the twen
tieth year; youth to tbo fiftieth, because It is
during this period that the tiwues beoome
firm; virility front fifty to seventy-five, daring
which the organism remains complete; and at
seventy-five old ago commences, to last n
longer or shorter tirno as the dimlnntion of
roserved forces i* hastened or retarded.
A Child with Two Heads sod F«ur Arms.
Dr*. Divine and Ovorton, of Ttuwoll. now
