The Chattanooga Gazette (Tennessee) of the
Sd inst. gives the following most unwelcome
account of the state Of public opinion and the
course of action based thereon in the adjacent
section Of Alabama:
One of the reasons why these ore being so much
denounced at the North and one of the man eie-
ments creating a strong party at the North to Keep
their representatives out OF Congress, Is that Hfy
do not 6y their acts gre any slgn 81 oydHy 10 me

01i,gps SIN remains Only last week q case oc-
cured in North Alabama, which deserves more
than a passing notice. For the main items IN thlS
case we are not indebted to The Jackson CoHHfy
Ncws. and in personal conversation WIN me
editor of that paper learn stu further ABOUT ihe
impudent rebellious character of the nstgators OF
the affair. The Sheriff of Jackson County, man
named Snodgrass issued call for special meeting
10 be held at scarborough, which iSnoi the county
town, and on day other than the court ia!
When this original court convened, IL was iouIi',
that the Sheriff had in charge iifeen dischargeu
Uaion soldiers, of tine tlrst Alabama IaEdli!,
arrested and placed on trial for Darder that IS iOf
killing Rebel soldiers gucrrilas and bushwhackers,
while soldiers OF the United States and IN the line
Of their duty. This selt-cOnsttutcd court remained
| in session for ~ days when Gen. kryzyan0"SkI,
! the commandment of the district OF North Alabama,
hearing of the affair, went down 70 ScotlsDorougi
himself and ordered the sef-syed court to stop all
proceedings and discharge the prisoners. After the
General had left the room, he SherlD rose mp IN ne
| c1Hrt-rOOm and said pubitciy: " Those Id Dpfch
are not running his thing nor. We are running
/ MS m1cLiHc' and would not release the prisoners.
The General hearing OF this the next day, sent down
some colored guards to scarborough released the
prisoners and sent Mr.. Sheriff to Nashville under
guard. Gen. kryzyanowsh having since been
mustered out % service, some parties have begun to
Try the thing over again. and Gen Guerson, the new
commander of that district, has been compelled to
issue the following order:
HuQRs DISTRICT or HUNTSVILLE. !

dignitary, the Right Rev. Richard Wilmer, in a
letter ~ the Clergy and Laity, recommends the
omission in the services Of the Church, IN that
State, of the prayer for the President of the United
States and all IN civil authority.
I Il &, any wonder after the exhibition II such n
sy5r,f of mghgnIy anil yarfg spite, that the Union
men Of the land afraid 10 trust too iar those
who have lately been in rebellion against the Gov

On the above exhibit, The Nashville Press
and Times thus properly comments:
This is very severe reflection upon the pro-
fcs.i0ns of the people Of the Rebel States, and It's
I plriculanzation adds To its severity. We have
read nothing in The chicago TriJHae. AHfi-Sia-
reyy Standard and other ultra Radical journals OF
the North at all approaching in the foregoing de-
tailed statement in The sharpness OF It's censre III
the people oi the Rebel States possessed OF the
temper ascribed 10 them by The ChGffaHoogo Ga
l -eic thoy will certainly defeat the Presidents be-
! neyolent confidence now repoSed in them. We
shall weep III the dust Of King Dayids humiliation,
with all the tears of irreprcssiblc sorrow should
such De the mOurnful, unhappy, grievOus, lament
able and agonizing result OF unprecedented elem
ency.
