Tennessee
 , and in 18671868 was editor of the
Journal
  at Louisville, Kentucky. In 1868, with W. N. Haldeman, he founded and became editor of the Louisville Courier-
Journal
 , a consolidation of the Courier (1843), the Democrat (1844), and the Journal (183o); and it soon became one of the most influential of Southern
newspapers
 . He was a Democratic representative in Congress from August 1876 to
March
  1877, and was delegate at large to the National Democratic Conventions of 1876, 188o, 1884, 1888 and 1892, serving as temporary chairman in 1876, and as chairman of the platform committee in 188o and 1888.
