THE REIGN OF TERROR SoUTu.-The nature
OF the slavery despotism that is now ruling in
the South is faithfully and impressively de
pictued in the following extract of letter

of Lewis county, Tennessee, born and raised
there, to friend in Folsom:
| don't know that | shall live two DAYS
longer. When Lincoln called on this State
for two regiments, our traitor Governor and
others of the same stripe, commenced an in
tiammatory operation for the purpose of getting
this State out of the Union, and although
four-ffths of the people are for the Union, yet
the nature Of slavery is such that on day after
tomorrow, perhaps nine-teDths of the people
will vote to go out of the Union Then it will
go hard with the Union men, | have been
already told by lawyers and merchants of Co
lumbia that | had got to leave or be hung

dent for me to stay here longer-I have been
trying to leave here for years, but - not
helping me, | have been unable to 90. shall
leave, alone, as soon as | can raise means to
pay my way Somewhere. When l get off, if l
do get off, will write to you. Y You cannot
imagine the ignorance of the people here-'tis
as dark as Egypt. And such a time as there

after ages. Andy Johnson, Parson Brownlow
Emerson Etheridge, Nelson, and few others,
are all the men Of talent that remain firm to
the Union. Bell, like other dogs, has returned
to bis vomit.
God is in this thing IF Lincoln will do his
duty, the political iangs of slavery will be
broken before the scene closes. If they " put
me through" and you hear from me no more,
be assured that remember, with becoming
gratitude, all your kinduesses. If fail, my
wife will have some person write to you, or
