Browrlow, of Tennessee, In wlIce he grap!l-
cal1y describes the present condition Of that
Sta!e. It's Governor darcs not ride out ON any
road leading into Nashville, except the rail-
roads, as the whole country abounds In thieves
a7d robbers ready to murder any mau for his
Watch or IS bill. OF course all these men
are white ex-sebels- The first Instance has
get to be recorded where a negro has turned
hIghwaymsn or brieand. The Governor as-
cures us TINT there is about as much disloy-
atty in Middle Tennessee now as in 1851
land this Is the case Of the whole South MI
nus the number of disloyal men who arc
under ground" Yet he af1rms that nj the
other Southern States arc still more disloyal
than Tennessee; that they will elect none but
rebels to Office, and that they are for as
eurning the rebel war debt, and for
tegislating Northern men otd Of Tie South He
ayers that the rebels arc MS firmly bent on
separation as ever, but count on attaining
their end through the Coppe1hcad democracy
and not by fighting. He bases his hopes for
the future on the Republican majority in Con-
cress, and prays God they will not admit reb-
els into Congress merely because they have
taken the amnesty oath and been pardoned,
