qualities which have cndcsred him to all We learn,
however that he intends locating 10 our sister city

We congratulate our friends In Colusnbus for such
an acquisition 10 their legal fraternity.
The above notice Of our late distinguished Con-
ereasrasn from he KnoxyIIls District l. fzs.sn

The recollection Of The generous kind and talented
Thornburg, the noble Pickens, and many osher'
whose murder his advice contributed 20 bring about
were enough 10 make him rscci ike Macbeth, at the
thought a. poluting with his sinhalcwed tread tiif
soil where their sacred ashes rcposc.
The Traders OF the rebellion in East Tenpesseey
the Csnspirators who misled and deceived the PEG
ple-are not Hoc in Easi Hsnnessee and not likely
TO come here for they can never hope to be allowed
| 10 live here.
There il another class who have not returned 4
their homes since the surrender Of the rebel armies
and are not likely 70 return. We refer to the IN
struments for the murder Of loyal Easn, Employed b
such men a. Jos. b. HeiskelI, Sneed and Crozier.--
Men Of small minds and no influences, who, smde
the inspiration and advice Of leaders violated all tn
usages of war, and disrsgarded all the dictates 0
humanity. We repeat, these men are away, and
with tae leaders, viii not return 70 this country
In every county in East Tennessee there is anothe
class. Men wbo voted Tor secession and advocate
JEFF. Davis and the success Of the Southern Confed
eracy. These men did not aid in the murder an
imprisonment Of Union men. In word. they con
sned their opcrations within the limits accorded
belligerents until the armies Of rebeldotn were SUI
rendered. Since that time they have deported them
eelycs as peaceable, w-abiding citizeaes q sEag
We nov say what We have always said, TIA thes
men must be protected. To this class of men VIII
hare been in rebellion VIC say pay no attention
anonymous letters ordering you to lcavs East Ten
ne..ee within given time. unless you know VIII
the authors Of the letters are and tie attention yo,
should then give them is 70 report the names Of tn
authors TO the civil officers 10 Union citizens VIII
will have them attended 10. s. tsstff
| No man whose character is worthy respect wi
allow you TO be unlawflly assailed, If in his powe
4 to prevent it.
Il The civil officers and loyal men Of the countr
viii not permit you TO be injured by irresponsible
men, who, 10 take vengeance for AZ "sold grudge
which existed before the war, would now assail 20
under the pretense Of whipping rebelr
And 70 the very small class Of per SOILS distribute
throughout Eas. Tennessee, who would thus 'brin
opprobriuln on the gsrb Of loyalty, We say you ~
watched BY all true Union lmen, and your nctvs
thoroughly scrutinizcd.
Ifypu imagine you will rrceiyeImy eouptenanc
from Union men, or clemency from those In author
ity, you are greatly mistaken. Governor Brownie,
is in Knoxville. We know his scntim ents, and i
this matter reflect them.
In conclusion, we will say that at no period sine
the war commcnced has there been as much orde
and as little lawlessncss in East Tennessee as a
present. and since the removal Of Che troops severn
J weeks since. - ssi.i.A .sasa ssaa
