Henry Cooper, Senator Elect from 'l'enuesjee. rITOR Constitution : As your readers it? -Vv ave some curiosity to know some thing of the fortunate individual who, on Friday last, defeated Andrew Johnson for United States Senator from Tennessee, I furnish,you the following. Judge Cooper is a brother of the lion. Edmund Cooper, now a member of the Tennessee Legislature from Bedford county who was, for sometime, A. J.’s private secretary. The Senator elect is his junior by birth. These broth ers are sons of Mathew D. Cooper, a ven erated and highly respected merchant,, who, at oue time, did business in New Orlcaus. Their mother was a Frierson, and thev claim Maury county, Tennessee, as the place of their nativity. Judge W. F. Cooper, who, before the war, was on the Supreme Bench of the State, is a brother of theirs, and is esteemed by thoße who know him as the peer of any one in the United States in legal lore. Before the War, he was identified with the Democratic* party, and resided at Nashville. He favor* ed secession. Prices Ziow Edmund and Henry Cooper were identi fied with the old Whig party, and resided at Shelby villa. They consistently and pet s sisteutly opposed secession, bat through* out the war deported themselves in such a manner as to command the respect of all parties. None charge them with favoring oppres sion, or being guilty of extortion from Ujeir unfortunate neighbors. Since the war, they have been conservative in their prin ciples, and have endeared themselves to the disfranchised masses by their efforts in their behalf. Judge Henry Cooper, the fortunate vie* tor over Andrew Johnson, was appointed h Circuit Judge soon after the reconstruction of the State ; and by the firmness he mani - tested iu opposing infringements ofeatab*. lished legal principles, he earned justly the character of an upright judge. His judgship he resigned to accept a Professorship in the Lebanon Law School, which position he filled acceptably, and with distinguished honor, for more lhau a year, but was forced t« resign because of the demands of his large family for an in come more adequate for their support and education, which the practice of his profes sion would furnish. Ho removed to Nash ville, where, in August last, he was elected to the’Legislate re from Davidson county. Senator Cooper is from thirlysfive to forty years of age ; about five feet «ix inches t®gh ; thick-set, of fair complexion, inclined to the florid. His hair, of which he only has a supply upon the sides and back ol the head, is light, inclined to auburn His physiognomy is expressive of great intellectuality, benevolence, and amiability His manners are those of a high-toned, thoroughly-educated and well-bred gentle men, whose every instinct is under the control of Christian principles. Truly, may Tennessee, and the nation along with lief, be congratulated upon her good fortune in securing the election of such a man as Judge Henry Cooper to the U. S. Senate, over the miserably selfish, tyrannical and profane exsi’resident An drew Jonuson. A Tennessee Democrat, GRAND TOURNAMENT. RULES AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE SAME. We call the attention of the chivalry of Georgia to the following rules ami rcgula* tions, which will govern the Grand Tour nament exercises at the Fair. It strikes us that they are fair, judicious and suffi ciently clear to be understood by ail. We are glad to learn that many clubs in different counties in this State ate in active preparation for the moat brilliant and in teresting affair, and the question suggests itself: What are the brave and gallant boys of old Bibb doing to prevent knights of other fields from currying off, in the presence of their ladyaloves, the magnifi cent prizes to be awarded to the vrctorsf Ate they ready for the struggle ? If not, is it not high time they worn girding on their armor and preparing for it ? Must it ha said they were defeated for lack of spirit and training ? Never! never ! But to the rules; Officb S. A. S. Macon, Ga., Oct. 20, 18G9. The Superintendent of the Tournament announces to all con tunned, the following rules for the government and informati<jn of those who may wish to enter tin; Us'„. Ist. Each gentleman desiring to *nter the list will communicate with Mr, V/. W. Collins, at Macon, Ga., informing h'/m what knight he wishes to represent. 2nd. Each knight will appear and ride in the costume of the charaoVg- he persons ates, and no one will be avowed to ride uuless in costume and pen?jerlv leonnted. 3rd. The enrollment of. names will Cease on the 15th ot Novem’j and the knights will dbiw for the oirj „. r j n which they will ride, each knight \i Gaining the position he has drawn and lie exchange wijl be allowed. 4tti. The tilt, will be a circle (220) two hundred and tventy yards, with six ring staffs at intervals-of 30 yards, leaving 40 yards for tb and start. sth. Si7,e ot ring*, 2| inches in diameter, length lance 9 feet. *kh.. All movements of the knights will be Yeg'.ilated by the bugle, j 'lth. Fifteen seconds lime will he allowed IVb make the distance of 180 yards. Any knight consuming more time Ilian this will either lose his t ide or ride over as the Judges may determine. Also, in all cases of accidents the Judges will decide, Bth. The knight taking the greatest number of lings within the lime specified, shall'be entitled to the first prize and to crown the Queen of Love and Beauty. The second the second prize, and to crown the first Maid of Honor, and so in the last prize, there tieiug a* mtyiy Maids ot Honor as there are prizes, 9th There will lie at least one delegate appointed from ever county that is repie» seated by k nigh is, who will choose five umpires who will act as Judges outlie. occasion. , . , , 10th. Them •naif be four nnnshnls ap pointed by the Superintendent/whose duty it shall bJ to preserve order Mud weenr the services of a suitable baud for the occasion. The marshals shall be mounted and ilo*ig~ i uated by a red sash, worn j across the breast from the ngh about Jur j to right hip, / 11 tb. AH question* that may arise must! Ue decided by the Jadgv<, and their deeis - j ion is final. . * 12th, That each Knight pay the Super tntoideiit the entrance fee of leu dollar* <(s*) before contesting for the prize, J3lh, In ease of two or more knights taking the ring the same number of ,tiun*s, they shall decide by riding through ou« time, and if they should tie the second time, they wiii continue to ride-through until a’ is decided by' the Judges. Perhaps there vviil be some few knighta who will put for to have the bar tn tached to the list of performances, there beiug the ring to take and bar to be jump ed; to those persons we will say that we will accommodate them if possible. There will be a fine Canadian thorough bred worth SSOO offered as first prize, ami corresponding ones for second and third etc. Vs. YV. COLLINS, Supt. .
