The Rev. G.. W. BROwNLOw, men Der Of the
Church militant local preacher in connection with
1.-THE Methodist Church South" editor CT The
Knorrih Uhig, and stump Sratorfor Slavery, Know
nottingham and other seedy humbugs, has written
a letter to The N. Y. Times in vindicaton of his
friend ard brother, Col. Netherand of Rogersyile,
Temp, whom be pronounces all right in the matter
Of the fosgiDg of his "boy" already narrated.
The Reverend bully makes very short work Of the
testimony on which q very general Judgment has
been rendered against Col. Netherland aforesaid.
His assumption 10 .impy that the Rev. MI Saw
yer lies in his account Of the matter-but what
possible motive Mr. S. could have had for misrepre-
eentiDg the facts be does not even intimate. tie
gees on to justify the burning alive of negro IN
jefferson County Tenn, some time since--'ald
regro having been guilty of rape and murder-and
to insist that he would not have been content with
burning him alive, but would have torn his flesh
with redhot phcers as a preliminary satisfaction.
He proceeds to state that be is about to lecture
through the Southern cities in defense Of Slavery,
and that
In the Spring purpose visiting the New England States
and repeating lectures In other words propose to

1t would certainly have seemed more courage
Gus and manly on the part of the Reverend bruser
if he had proposed that some representative of
Northern Ahti.Slavery sentiment should accom-
paDy him and discuss the topics of his selection
throughout the Southern well as the Northern
portion Of bis lecturiDg tour Let Dir. Brownow
invite those whom be would convert to send
champion to canvass the South as well as the North
with him, under guarantees of reciprocal protec-
ton, and he shall have discussion to his hearts
content Dare he, dare the South, propose such
discussion
But even though the South should shut her ears
ard run, we hope the Reverend Mr.. Brownlow
will extend his proposed ecturiDg tour through tie
Northern Cities, aud will not back out of his cha
lenge. We trust, however, that no Beecher or
Parker will be chosen to present the Northern
view in opposition to the pincersloving parson.
We want disputant on our side who is acquainted
with the South as we'll as the North, with the con-
diton Of slaves as well as that of free negroes, and
who knows whether emancpated slaves who come
North do or do not necessarily become thieves or
paupers And, happily, we have .uch man
among u.s. to whom the North may confidently COM
nit its faith and honor in the controversy pro.
posed by Brownlow. The name of this champion
Of Free Labor is Frederick Douglass.
