TOUCHING APPEAL FOR EAST TENNESSEE.
To The Editoy Of The Philadelphia I"quro.
SIR: wish to publish, IN your me-
journal, a brief card, which / request your o'her
ety pagers to copy. | consider that The Petersbnrg
Erpress in announcing the arrival in that eity OF
my wife and Children and the wife and children OF
the Hon. IiORAcE MAYNARD, has mendaciousiy as'
,ailed the reputation and patriotism OF these adies
in stating "tbat though the husbands have evinc"d
an unaccounable hostility to the South and its
cause, they ttho ladies' are firmly attached 10 the
CODfe Ceracy!'
There is not one word OF truth in this statement,
unless it il alleged that the homes and fresldes o'
the-e ladies, in Knoxville, from which tbev have
been unceremoDiously expelled by an insolent order
of the Commanding General constitute the Contcd-
eracy. The order was Issued to these families by
WEN CHURcHwELL, Proves -Mar-hal Knoxville,
giving them SO hours IL which to leave The Couied-
eracy, leaving their houses and furnrnFe oehud'
aud escaping with L portion of their wearing AZ

order no doubt took great pleasure IN doug soi
