what lengthy article in the Philadelphia
Press
He is, always has been, and (unless
his very nature changes) always must be
"tcrribly in earnest" He impresses his
readers as well as his auditors with this
simple fact. He follows Shakspeare's
advice, to "tell the truth and shame the
devil" He does not pause, in the mi l.
current of thought and speech, to Gull
out pretty words aud strike them togeth-
er, in an ornate manner, as fashiona.
bic damoscl strings pearls, for the sake
of ornament. Not he. What Mr..
Brownlow has TO declare he declares
openly and boldly, and, with him, as
with all natural orators end writer's, the
best worls--that is, the words which
most plainly enunciate his thoughts
array themselves in the best pluoes.-
As has been remarked in the political
part of this newspaper, w. G. Brown
low is undeniably the Peter the Hermit
of the great Union cause which honest
men advocate, Moreover, he is mar
tyr TO the cause.
Mr., Brownlow's confession Of political
faith is plain and tangible. Standing up
for the Union, he says any ancestors
fought in its defence; and while their
blood flows in my veins i shall instinct
lively rccuil from bartering away the
glory of its past and the prophecy Of
It's future for the stained record of that
vile thing, begotten by fraud, crime, and
bad ambition, christened Southern
icracy. | cannot exchange his
toric renown for disgrace, national hon
or fot infamy, how splendid soever may
be the compulSion." He has plainly de-
fined his platform, since his escape from
thraldom. lie says "I have everywhere
condemned the disorganizng propagan.
lists of the North, and have publicly pro
claimed that | was a Southerner by
birth, education and habits; yet, when |
also announced that | was a National
man and uncompromisingly for the Union,
| found that other things were forgot
ten, and that had touched a cord which
m ade us all of kim" This is the right
feeling;--above all, the Union.
The work contaius nearly 500 pages,
printed on fine, white paper, in large,
clear type, and is handsomely illustrated
