PARsoN BRowNLow's ATTITUDE.

The Knoxville Wing of the 7,h instant con-
taius II card from Mr.. Brownlow, designed TO
correct some erroneous notions that prevail in
regard to his position on the war question. He
says lie entertaips the same opinions he always
has of the hercsy of Secession and the leading
men who brought about dissolution Of the
Union, and of the motives that prompted them"
lie 'cau never sanction one nor conhde in the
other" lie wishes il un ierstood, however, that,
inasmuch as he is not s.candidate for MARTYR
dom or Imprisonment during the war, and has
been overpOwered by the action of the State at
the ballot box, and by the strong arm OF the
military, he has determined to 'moderate in his
tone" TO scease the course of warfare" he has
waged, and to ''yield to the necessity upon US
q necessity none Of us can avert" Af'er pedg-
ing himself to devote more attention hereafter to
giving his readers the current news, he says !:
II have fought, edtorially as long as l could
accomplish anything BY fighting, and in my re-
tiremeut to position Of neutrality, | carry with
me mig unchanged principles, and shall cherish
them to my latest hours in life y He further
adds:
$50 far as am individually concerned will
net be u party to any mad scheme OF rebellion,
gotten up at this late day, or to any insane at.
tempt to invade this end Of the State with Federal
troops. And my portion of the Union men Of
East Tennessee who pay be crazy enough to
ruin, as they are bound to do, shall not, when
the times of the caamiies be overpast, reflect
on me for having advised such course
II have my old friesds and co laborers in the
Union cause, dispersed throughout East Tonnes
see, who think that ought weekly to pitch into
the State and the Confederate Governments, and
into everybody and everything connected with
Secession, regardless Of consequences; and tie
more SO, as l conduct the only Union paper left
in the Southern COnfederacy. Not being i'm
pressed with any such sense of duty, most re.
spectfully decline the honors and hazards of SO
brave and independent n course. Aud If there
is amy gentleman in the UDion ranks in this end
of the State, who is DESTROYS to try his hand in
it, will cheertully yield him my positionl But
before he embarks, as a new beginner, will ap
prise him of the fact that we are in the midst of
fearful revolution and rcbellion--that the civil
law has given way to the military rule-and that,
if he is fool enough to attempt such course. the
military authorities OF the South are not fools
enough to tolerate it. | come down from my
extreme position, not of choice but Of necessity,
and frankly confess that have not the courage
to meet. in open combat, uuarmed as am,
eleven States in arms, and in full uniform"

MARTIN GREEN THE REBEL CHIEF.

The last act of that notorious character,
Green, has afforded the Government here re-
newed evidence of the necessity gilmore troops
in Missouri. The seizure of $500 muskets on
board the steamer Saashine, is serious loss at
the present time to our troops; but the supply
is being rapidly augmented. Green has been
over two months carrying on a guerilla war,
flying from point to point with his banditti, and
committing all manner of depredations-a ter
ror to that section of the country. General
Hurlbut is after him, and, if supplied with II
stronger force, he will yet succeed in bringing
him down. His capture or death will be hail
ed with satisfaction in the West.

For the Delaware Inquircrl
Youth is a Period of Great Efforts'
and Great Results.

There has existed a notion in time past, that
age alone was capable of performing great
deeds, and accomplishing great results. Now
this notion has become more or less to great
extent of common sentiment, and universal
opinion, and we are apt to pass young men anu
deem them unworthy of notice, because their
heads are not covered with silver locks, and
and their limbs trembling with infrmities, or
lettering on the borders of the grave. We are
willing to admit that age has the most iniiu-
ence. and that man in his more mature age IS
more likely to act with more prudence ana
caution; but we must say, that youth may put
forth efforts and lead to vast results. Taking
the history of the world, it has proved that
Young men are better fitted for active service,
than are their fathers--either for active or Ia
borious seryice-and in every enterprise where
labor is required, We naturally look to young
men.
Our army, to-day, is chiefly composed OF
Young men, between the ages of eighteen and
thirty-five; and our most distinguished gener-
ais at the present day, are quite boys as 1T
were, General McClellan--this celebrated and
distinguished (ieneral-who is Commander-in-
chief of the Federal forces along the Potomac'
and who has received the congratulations OF
Ate Executive of the United States, through the
tst session of Congress, isbut thirty-four years

The Works of a Century.

One hundred years ago, there was not a
single white man in Ohio, Kentucky, In
diana or Illinois Territories. Then, what
is now the most fourishing part OF the
United States, was as little known as the
country round the mountains of the Moon.
It was not until 1896 that the hunter of
Kentucky, the gallant and adventurous
Boone, left his home in North Carolina, to
become the first settler in Kentucky.
The first pioneer of Ohio did not settle
until twenty years after that time.
4 hundred years ago, Canada belonged
to France, and the whole population OF
the United States did not exceed a million
and a half of people.
A hundred years ago. the great Frederic
Of Prussia was performing those great ex-
PLOTS which made him immortal in mill
taly annals, and with his little monarchy,
was sustaining single handed contest
with Russia, Austria and France, the three
great powers of Europe combined.
a hundred years ago, the United States
were the most loyal part of the British
Empire, and on the political horizon, TO
speck indicated the struggle which within
a score Of years thereafter, established the
great republic of the world.
One hundred years ago, there was but
four newspapers in America; steam en-
gines had not been imagined, and railroads
and telegraphs had not entered into the
remotest conceptions of man.
When we come to look back at it, thro
the vista of history, we find that the cen
fury which has been passed has been allot-
ted to more important events, in their
bearing upon the happiness Of the world,
than almost any other which has elapsed
since the creation. A hundred years hence
wha. will be the developments
