A SPECIMEN CoNvERsIoY.-Those South
ern editors who require protested change
of heart by Confederates before admission
to the Union, mean, we suppose, something
like the following transformation of their
friend Brownlow. Just before the war he
wrote to brother minister at the North in
this strain:
"Dissolve this Union, you infamous vii
lains, and we shall make this proposition
at once to Louis Napoleon, Almost sagacious
monarch, and he would quar- at New Or
leans 100000 Frcnchmcn, and at Chesa-
peake 10000 more; we would then COM
mand the valley, whip the northwest States
into our Southern Confederacy, and we
would then turn upon the New England
States, and cause the hurricane of civil war
to rage, and sweep from Mason and Dixon's
line to the cod fisheries of Maine, until we
should extinguish the last abolition foot
hold on the continent of America
"If the response is not satisfactory, call
q prayer meeting, and have Wendell Phil
lips, Beecher, Cheever, and all the long
faced hypocrites who insult God and mock
eligion by calling upon him for mercy
pray old John Brown and confederates out
of hell, where the whole batch of you are
going with lightning speed Ask God to
forgive you for your wickedness-pray
morning, noon and night, with your faces
towards Harper's Ferry! Ask him to wash
your nltny garments irom thc sum VI Dioou
of your Kansas and Virginia murders, and
importune him until yon get your answer
go and sin no more'-sin no longer against
conscience and your country's laws and
constitution"
Since the war, this specimen of the re-
ouired conversion, writes thus:
"From the commencement of the rebel
lion til now, the deUil and the tvOmen of
the South have been the ablest allies the
cause of treason had in the field. The in
fuence of the women, backed up his satanic
majesty, filled the ranks Of the rebel ar
mics, and gave ardor and endurance to the
hen-pecked men that entered the service.
/ Southern women even petitioncd the rebel
Congress to enact the law of CONSUMPTION,
so as to force all in the service. Through
the influence which women had, thousands
were forced into the field, and thence to
/ their graves, who never would have left
home Playing into the hands of the devil
by thus filling his ranks, they had his ap-
prevail all the time. Wives gave up their
! husbands, sisters their brothers, and moth
ers their sons; willing, nay, anxious to i'm
molate their lives to the Moloch Of war
The women were willing to wear homespun;
ready to dispense with the Injuries of table
