" ATHEIST OF WM G. BROWNL0W W--On
yesterday we presented 10 our readers for the
qualification Of public curiosity characteristic
card from Parson VIM. G. Browulow, which ap-
peaIed IN the last Knoxville HUg Brownlow
/ asserts that he is to be arrested by Confederate
authority and tried for treason, and makes a
piuous statement Of his case in the premises.
We are inclined to regard the Parson as labor
ing under hodtHclHatioH. a member of the
grand JuTy-a gentleman Of unquostonable re-
liability-stated to us on Yesterday that the nama
Of l'rownlow had Horer been brought befqre t6s
jury IN any manner, much less in connection
with his arrest. This statement is due to tbe
government, whose integrity Mr. Brownlow's 5
card would impeach. The noisy Parson has but
to conduct himselfwith proper discretion, that he
may dwell in uDbroken peace, as far as Confed-

Since the arrest Of the females who
have made themselves CONSPICUOUS by
their efforts to obtain and transmit val
liable information to the rebels, in addi-
ton to the charges upon which their ar
rest was based, number Of facts have
been discovered showing their disloyalty
and activity as agents OF the rebels. 1t
appears that Mrs. Greenhow carried her
operations to such an extent as to tam
per with gentleman occupying a re-
sponsible position in the War Depart
ment, and when informed that she could
no longer succeed in her efforts to in
duce him to betray his trust, she begged
and obtained his promise that he would
not expose her. Subsequently he in-
formed the chief Of his bureau that lie
had been thus approached BY widow
lady. resident OF Washington, but with
held her name until to-day, when, upon
being pointedly questioned, he explained
that concealmcnt of the name was no
longer Of any avail, and stated that it
