look for an aggravation OF the disorder in
both Cases, now that thy will have to kerp
more OF their whisky at home. Tennessee
hasn't drunk barrel of her own whisky for
six or eight year, That may be true-it at
tests either their own estimation of the dan
grrOus quality of the article, or the necessity
that constrained them TO sell it to the South

Owing to press of job-work we can't dis
cuss great questions at much length now with
anybody. Hence we can notice but ten of
the arguments iu the above.
l. tennessee whisky needs no sort of re-
commentator from US in Georgia. 1t was
rather mean in you to secede but then the
meanness was not in the whisky. If you had
confined yourselves to the exclusive use Of
Georgia whisky. you would have been out of
The Union twenty years ago.
U.-Tbere is no such man in Tennessee as
'Major GEORGE WASHINGTON BLYNNKs." Our
Southern COnfederated contemporary is evil
IDENTIFY thinking of a Colonel CoriaLanus Mikti-
AIDES BLYNNKs, now at Washington procuring
a postoffice. He has no connection with this
paper. save as an occasional correspondent.
III.--The PATRIOT never makes mistakes.
IV.--The PATRIOT keeps no whisky at home.
V.--Tennessee was not aware that you had
any of the necessaries of life to spare though
she knew that if you had, she could get the
last enc for barrel of whisky. VI.-That
the genius displayed in the manufacture of
Tennessee ''poplar log" is remarkable, is am
ply attested by the admiration of Georgia for
the article. VILE Is p Yssibie that the
.pure, unadulterated article manufactured by
AMBROSE BRANNAN" may command higher
price than that made in this country, but we
can't believe that it is any better for if it
is, why has MT our old friend AMBROSE sent
us large-sized fve-gallon keg of it by the
Adams Express to try in sick family? VIII.
You have no right to say a word against
General Pillow. He was at Milledgeville
about the time you seeded, and was your
guide. philosopher and friend through the
whole thing. IX--Come up some time and
try an article that We regard as too fine for
Southern expectation. X-This invitation
is extended, not to the State of Georgia, but
to the editor of the Enquirer only.
