&Sa- Farscn Browniow, OF Tennessee,
has never been considered q negro. wor-
shipper; but he says. in a recent let
ter, that he would rather trust the
poorest black nov il Tennessee with q
vote than miserable canting hypocrite Of
rebel, who has sueaked back into the
Union without taking time to wash the
stains Of loyal blood of his hands," And
this ia the feeling among large class Of
Uoion men in the South who have suffered
every thing but death at the hands of the
rebels.
~ Victor Hugo writes: The thun-
derbolt which was broken on Washington
has shattered the world. Darkness Of THE
kind occur in history. After the dawn the
night. But the American people is q CO.
lossus Of bronze. Traitors can scratch 1t,
but they know not how to destroy it. III
liberty should fall in America, there would
be shipwreck in humanity. Frightfal
deluge."
G8- Nothing has been heard Of the rebel
General Hocd eince the collapse OF the re-
bellion, until now. 1t is reported that he

T'in!ca Bend about the llth inst. They
had q narrow ESCAPE from y naval force
sent in pursuit, Gen. Hood escaping IN a
state Of nudity.
